1
00:01:53,947 --> 00:01:57,117
A state of emergency
has been declared in California.

2
00:01:57,451 --> 00:02:01,711
Just outside Los Angeles several fires are
wreaking havoc, destroying homes

3
00:02:01,788 --> 00:02:03,788
and sending residents fleeing to safety.

4
00:02:03,874 --> 00:02:08,754
The biggest blaze is the Huntley Fire just
outside the wealthy community of Malibu

5
00:02:08,836 --> 00:02:11,506
which authorities are now
likening to a war zone.

6
00:02:11,590 --> 00:02:14,340
Fire crews are battling flames
in three different counties.

7
00:02:14,426 --> 00:02:17,346
Residents who were in tears
as they were unable to return...

8
00:02:18,597 --> 00:02:20,967
Destroying everything in its path.

9
00:02:21,058 --> 00:02:24,728
It's happening as tension rises
and tragedies mount.

10
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,660
Hey, Fred, we're evacuating.
It's mandatory.

11
00:02:37,741 --> 00:02:40,701
Make sure they get all the animals.
The horses, the little burro.

12
00:02:40,786 --> 00:02:41,946
Get the fucking animals.

13
00:02:42,037 --> 00:02:43,077
On it, boss.

14
00:02:43,705 --> 00:02:44,705
God.

15
00:02:45,123 --> 00:02:49,803
I did not need this.
TMS should go to LA to cover this.

16
00:02:49,878 --> 00:02:54,048
Get those fucking women to stop talking
about Me Too for five minutes.

17
00:03:02,766 --> 00:03:06,016
Hey, Cory. Listen, I got an idea.

18
00:03:06,103 --> 00:03:07,813
Can you get a hold of Bradley?

19
00:03:08,272 --> 00:03:13,112
We're staying in the same hotel,
so let me see if I can connect with her.

20
00:03:13,193 --> 00:03:15,171
All right,
I'll call Chip on the way to the airport.

21
00:03:15,195 --> 00:03:17,275
Get the girls to LA to cover these fires.

22
00:03:17,364 --> 00:03:18,374
Okay.

23
00:03:39,887 --> 00:03:41,427
What is happening right now?

24
00:03:41,513 --> 00:03:44,983
Um, Lucky Lindy
landed safely in Paris, maybe?

25
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:47,730
Whoa.

26
00:03:47,811 --> 00:03:51,021
Yes, I know my face can be startling
in an intimate setting.

27
00:03:51,106 --> 00:03:53,896
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

28
00:03:53,984 --> 00:03:55,864
I feel so awful.

29
00:03:57,362 --> 00:04:00,872
- I'm so sorry. I was a fucked-up mess.
- Oh, no. No, no.

30
00:04:00,949 --> 00:04:02,579
Please, don't be.

31
00:04:03,035 --> 00:04:06,285
We laughed, we cried,
we ate grilled cheese.

32
00:04:06,371 --> 00:04:07,661
It was all good.

33
00:04:09,666 --> 00:04:11,746
I actually did sleep in the living room.

34
00:04:11,835 --> 00:04:14,295
I was a little concerned
you might choke on your own vomit.

35
00:04:14,379 --> 00:04:16,379
The grilled cheese didn't go down so well.

36
00:04:17,216 --> 00:04:18,626
Please just shoot me.

37
00:04:20,135 --> 00:04:23,555
- Hey, Bradley. Bradley?
- What?

38
00:04:23,639 --> 00:04:25,639
- What?
- Bradley?

39
00:04:27,351 --> 00:04:30,981
It's really all good.
I was glad that I could be here to help.

40
00:04:31,063 --> 00:04:33,653
I wouldn't have wanted you
to be alone last night.

41
00:04:34,525 --> 00:04:36,145
Thank you, Cory.

42
00:04:39,154 --> 00:04:41,164
Being alone is highly overrated.

43
00:04:42,366 --> 00:04:46,036
Um, you're awfully nice for the head
of a... president of a network.

44
00:04:46,119 --> 00:04:49,499
Yeah, I'm actually really not.
I just like you.

45
00:04:49,581 --> 00:04:51,001
Here, have some toast.

46
00:04:52,251 --> 00:04:54,171
- Hey, you got me toast?
- Mm-hmm.

47
00:04:54,253 --> 00:04:56,593
- And coffee.
- Oh, I got coffee. Thank God.

48
00:04:56,672 --> 00:04:58,302
- Yeah, there you go.
- Thank you.

49
00:05:02,928 --> 00:05:07,178
In other exciting news, we're gonna
be covering the wildfires in LA.

50
00:05:07,266 --> 00:05:11,436
So I need you to get on a plane ASAP.
Chip has been calling your phone.

51
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,480
Oh, my G... Holy shit!

52
00:05:13,564 --> 00:05:15,654
Yeah. But don't worry.
He doesn't know that I'm here.

53
00:05:15,732 --> 00:05:17,482
Um, you can call from the car.

54
00:05:18,026 --> 00:05:21,816
Okay. Even though I feel like crap,
this is great news

55
00:05:21,905 --> 00:05:23,591
'cause I just need
to get boots on the ground.

56
00:05:23,615 --> 00:05:25,155
That's what I'm good at.

57
00:05:25,242 --> 00:05:28,292
I actually have to go back to LA.
Pilot business, you know.

58
00:05:28,370 --> 00:05:30,660
Upfronts are biting at my heels.
So I'll go up.

59
00:05:30,747 --> 00:05:33,707
I'll pack. I'll get you some Advil.
I can take you to the airport with me.

60
00:05:33,792 --> 00:05:35,792
Thank you. That is so nice.

61
00:05:35,878 --> 00:05:39,588
But wouldn't it be a little bit strange
if we came to the airport in the same car?

62
00:05:40,549 --> 00:05:42,379
That's a good point.

63
00:05:43,385 --> 00:05:46,215
I'll get you some Advil, put you in a cab.

64
00:05:47,222 --> 00:05:49,222
- To LA!
- LA!

65
00:05:49,308 --> 00:05:53,268
Open space and Santa Anas and wildfires.

66
00:05:54,021 --> 00:05:58,151
Anything can happen!
Especially when it's burning down!

67
00:06:00,027 --> 00:06:01,607
Oh, my God.

68
00:06:04,990 --> 00:06:06,870
It's the grilled cheese.

69
00:06:11,872 --> 00:06:13,582
You know it's Sunday, right?

70
00:06:13,665 --> 00:06:16,535
Hey, good morning.
We got to go to LA to cover these fires.

71
00:06:16,627 --> 00:06:19,757
YDA is fucking killing it
with Jimmy and his tearful nonnies.

72
00:06:19,838 --> 00:06:22,628
Chip, Chip, please.
It's really early. Just slow down.

73
00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:25,550
Oh, it's early? I'm sorry.
Yeah, we're all hungover.

74
00:06:25,636 --> 00:06:28,056
But I got to get you on a plane
in a few hours. Come on.

75
00:06:28,138 --> 00:06:30,768
Seriously? Fires in LA. I, uh...

76
00:06:31,642 --> 00:06:34,522
That sounds a little desperate.
It's not like it's 9/11 or something.

77
00:06:34,603 --> 00:06:36,983
No, no. You don't get it.
This is massive, okay?

78
00:06:37,064 --> 00:06:41,534
We got multiple fires raging here.
We've got evacuations, homes lost.

79
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:44,210
People are dying in their fucking cars
trying to escape the fires.

80
00:06:44,863 --> 00:06:45,863
Oh, Jesus.

81
00:06:45,948 --> 00:06:48,238
Besides, the show could use
a little narrative shift.

82
00:06:48,575 --> 00:06:51,655
Let's do this. These orders are coming
straight from the fucking Death Star.

83
00:06:51,745 --> 00:06:55,075
Chip, I'm not...
I'm not covering a fucking fire, okay?

84
00:06:55,165 --> 00:06:58,375
Just send Bradley.
Get her off my ass for a few days.

85
00:06:58,460 --> 00:07:00,840
I am trying to reach her.
But, come on, Alex!

86
00:07:00,921 --> 00:07:03,801
This has got to ha...
Wha... Hold on a second.

87
00:07:03,882 --> 00:07:04,882
What are you...

88
00:07:04,967 --> 00:07:08,847
Yes, yes, I know I'm not supposed to enter
here unannounced. Just give me that.

89
00:07:09,888 --> 00:07:11,428
Hey! What...

90
00:07:12,975 --> 00:07:14,225
All right, fuck you too.

91
00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:15,979
I can't do this anymore, Alex.

92
00:07:16,061 --> 00:07:20,021
I was up all night after you abandoned me,
left me to host your fucking fund-raiser.

93
00:07:20,482 --> 00:07:22,822
Okay. Look, I-I... I was upset...

94
00:07:22,901 --> 00:07:27,701
Yes, but you're always upset or stressed,
and I just cannot take it anymore. Okay?

95
00:07:29,658 --> 00:07:30,868
I love our daughter.

96
00:07:30,951 --> 00:07:35,371
But years of having a relationship
with a charming narcissist

97
00:07:35,455 --> 00:07:37,285
is fucking killing me.

98
00:07:38,625 --> 00:07:40,335
You're not in love with me.

99
00:07:41,170 --> 00:07:43,710
And I am not in love with you anymore.

100
00:07:49,428 --> 00:07:50,428
And?

101
00:07:51,889 --> 00:07:53,349
I want a divorce.

102
00:08:02,649 --> 00:08:04,529
Well, no.

103
00:08:05,694 --> 00:08:07,954
It's not entirely up to you,
believe it or not.

104
00:08:08,030 --> 00:08:10,660
Jason, this... this is why
we are separated. Because...

105
00:08:10,741 --> 00:08:12,302
Listen.
We don't have to do the family calendars.

106
00:08:12,326 --> 00:08:14,576
You don't have to host my fund-raisers
with me anymore.

107
00:08:14,661 --> 00:08:19,421
No, Alex. We separated because
we argue constantly just like this.

108
00:08:19,499 --> 00:08:20,499
Yes, we do.

109
00:08:20,584 --> 00:08:24,634
And because, deep down, I am furious
with you for never putting me first,

110
00:08:24,713 --> 00:08:28,843
and you are furious with me
because I am angry about it,

111
00:08:28,926 --> 00:08:31,676
and because you believe
you have a God-given right

112
00:08:31,762 --> 00:08:34,392
to always have the most important problem.

113
00:08:36,140 --> 00:08:39,690
Alex, I swear to God, if you answer that,
I will never speak to you again...

114
00:08:42,105 --> 00:08:43,145
ever.

115
00:08:43,732 --> 00:08:45,152
Fine. Fine.

116
00:08:47,861 --> 00:08:50,741
Okay, um, look.

117
00:08:51,490 --> 00:08:53,030
We can't get a divorce.

118
00:08:54,868 --> 00:08:57,408
- I'm already on thin ice with America.
- Oh, God.

119
00:08:57,496 --> 00:09:00,326
A divorce will just...
put me over the edge. And I can...

120
00:09:00,415 --> 00:09:03,415
This is happening, Alex.

121
00:09:04,253 --> 00:09:07,213
We have to tell Lizzy,
you have to tell your PR people.

122
00:09:07,297 --> 00:09:09,797
Because like everything else
in our personal life,

123
00:09:09,883 --> 00:09:12,933
it needs to be fucking handled.

124
00:09:13,011 --> 00:09:16,851
But make no mistake, this is happening.

125
00:09:21,687 --> 00:09:25,267
I've spoken to my lawyer.
I'm gonna drive and tell Lizzy tonight.

126
00:09:25,357 --> 00:09:27,937
If you wanna come, you should.

127
00:09:30,445 --> 00:09:33,655
- No, I... No! No!
- I'll meet you at 5:00. We'll go together.

128
00:09:33,740 --> 00:09:38,450
No, Jason, Jason, I'm sorry I did that.
I'm sorry I left you at the party alo...

129
00:09:38,537 --> 00:09:40,707
- We cannot tell Lizzy.
- Why?

130
00:09:40,789 --> 00:09:42,709
Beca... Because, because...

131
00:09:44,459 --> 00:09:46,129
I have to go to California today.

132
00:09:48,463 --> 00:09:51,473
We're covering the fires.
That's why Chip has been calling me.

133
00:09:51,550 --> 00:09:52,550
Alex.

134
00:09:52,634 --> 00:09:55,764
Please. Jason, peoples' homes
are burning to the ground.

135
00:09:55,846 --> 00:10:00,306
Bodies are being pulled out of cars.
This is important. Jason.

136
00:10:01,059 --> 00:10:02,939
We'll tell her when I get back.

137
00:10:03,395 --> 00:10:06,725
Fine. As soon as you are back,
we will tell her.

138
00:10:06,815 --> 00:10:08,815
But I am not fucking around, Alex.

139
00:10:08,901 --> 00:10:11,281
I'm not gonna cool down
and suddenly change my mind.

140
00:10:11,361 --> 00:10:13,571
I'm not thinking that.

141
00:10:14,489 --> 00:10:16,489
I just have to cover the fires.

142
00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,870
It's not my fault. I didn't light them.

143
00:10:30,589 --> 00:10:31,669
Yes?

144
00:10:31,757 --> 00:10:36,047
Hey, so sorry. I was sound... sound asleep.

145
00:10:36,136 --> 00:10:38,136
Um, you're right.

146
00:10:38,222 --> 00:10:40,932
It... It's important.
Of course, I'll be there.

147
00:10:41,016 --> 00:10:43,306
Fantastic. Thank you.
Plane can leave at 11:00.

148
00:10:43,685 --> 00:10:47,055
Okay, I'll see you then.
Oh, eh, um, don't bring Bradley.

149
00:10:47,898 --> 00:10:51,398
You just fucking told me to bring...
You know what? It doesn't matter.

150
00:10:51,944 --> 00:10:54,255
She's already going.
Fred wants her there. You're both going.

151
00:10:54,279 --> 00:10:57,319
It's gonna be a ratings bonanza.
Pack your stuff. Car's coming in an hour.

152
00:10:57,407 --> 00:10:58,697
Oh, fuck, fine!

153
00:11:42,744 --> 00:11:44,584
All right, I'm here. Let's go.

154
00:12:17,404 --> 00:12:18,704
Copy just came in.

155
00:12:18,780 --> 00:12:20,280
Oh, thank you.

156
00:12:22,201 --> 00:12:24,161
I'm glad we're getting out of town
for a few days.

157
00:12:24,244 --> 00:12:28,334
Yeah, we could definitely all use a change
of scenery, even if it's a deadly fire.

158
00:12:28,415 --> 00:12:30,035
Which is saying something.

159
00:12:31,793 --> 00:12:33,593
I'm glad you were there last night.

160
00:12:34,129 --> 00:12:35,459
- You were?
- Yeah.

161
00:12:35,547 --> 00:12:38,547
I also didn't know
half the staff doesn't trust me.

162
00:12:41,428 --> 00:12:42,678
Do I smell like tequila?

163
00:12:43,096 --> 00:12:44,216
Let me smell.

164
00:12:45,766 --> 00:12:47,486
Oh, wow. Nah, I'm just playing.
You're fine.

165
00:12:47,684 --> 00:12:50,274
Look, the staff, they barely know you.
It's only been a week.

166
00:12:50,354 --> 00:12:53,114
Give them some time. Okay?
You're pretty likable.

167
00:12:54,691 --> 00:12:55,781
Thanks.

168
00:12:55,859 --> 00:12:57,569
I need some coffee. You want some?

169
00:12:57,653 --> 00:12:59,153
- Nah, I'm all good.
- Okay.

170
00:13:10,082 --> 00:13:11,502
It's the travel booker.

171
00:13:11,583 --> 00:13:12,583
What?

172
00:13:12,668 --> 00:13:16,508
Most of the hotels near the fire are full
because of the mandatory evacuations.

173
00:13:16,588 --> 00:13:19,548
And the only one that's available
doesn't have any suites.

174
00:13:20,342 --> 00:13:23,642
Well, can't they kick out
some of the displaced families?

175
00:13:24,847 --> 00:13:26,307
I do need room for my diamonds.

176
00:13:26,390 --> 00:13:28,270
- So that's a "yes." Got it.
- Jesus.

177
00:13:29,268 --> 00:13:31,228
Who's telling people
that I need all these things?

178
00:13:31,895 --> 00:13:32,895
Hmm?

179
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,190
This is why celebrities
get really crappy reputations.

180
00:13:37,359 --> 00:13:39,439
And by being difficult to work with.

181
00:13:41,363 --> 00:13:43,663
It's been two days
since the Ashley Brown interview.

182
00:13:43,740 --> 00:13:44,950
What's your point?

183
00:13:45,450 --> 00:13:48,096
What are we doing? You're gonna
have to talk to Bradley at some point.

184
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,080
Or... Or make some eye contact.

185
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:54,133
Chip, I don't give a fuck.
Just leave me alone on it, all right?

186
00:13:54,668 --> 00:13:57,128
I have this other natural disaster
I have to deal with.

187
00:13:57,212 --> 00:13:59,722
Okay. I'm sorry. I'm just...

188
00:14:03,552 --> 00:14:05,802
All right, folks,
we have just about another hour to go

189
00:14:05,888 --> 00:14:07,558
before we touch down in Burbank.

190
00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:10,559
I hope you guys
are having a good time back there.

191
00:14:10,642 --> 00:14:12,312
It's been a pleasure serving you.

192
00:14:28,827 --> 00:14:30,197
Mommy!

193
00:14:53,018 --> 00:14:55,398
Let's go, come on. Hold my hand.
Don't let go.

194
00:15:03,070 --> 00:15:05,070
Water... Here if you need 'em.

195
00:15:07,741 --> 00:15:08,781
Sorry this took so long.

196
00:15:08,867 --> 00:15:09,867
Jesus.

197
00:15:09,952 --> 00:15:11,952
Any port in a storm, huh?

198
00:15:12,037 --> 00:15:13,407
You sure about that?

199
00:15:14,164 --> 00:15:15,964
Okay, guys, clock's ticking.
Let's get set up.

200
00:15:16,041 --> 00:15:18,041
- Yanko, meet the helicopter, please?
- Yeah.

201
00:15:23,423 --> 00:15:25,263
- Alex Levy?
- Hi there.

202
00:15:25,342 --> 00:15:26,342
Hi.

203
00:15:27,553 --> 00:15:28,933
Oh, thank you.

204
00:15:29,012 --> 00:15:31,572
We're working on the press conference
with the Malibu fire chief.

205
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,060
Then we have the children
who survived in the swimming pool.

206
00:15:34,142 --> 00:15:36,621
The climate change expert.
Do we have anyone from the hospital yet?

207
00:15:36,645 --> 00:15:39,225
The nurse is a little skittish.
I'm working on her.

208
00:15:39,314 --> 00:15:40,404
I'll have a backup too.

209
00:15:40,482 --> 00:15:43,282
Okay, we still need an upbeat story
to wrap up with.

210
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,990
I'm leaning towards the Good Samaritan
who rescued all the dogs.

211
00:15:47,072 --> 00:15:49,912
Oh, hey, uh, don't you think
that's a little bit soft?

212
00:15:50,325 --> 00:15:52,905
I mean, I like dogs.
But just to end the show?

213
00:15:52,995 --> 00:15:55,365
Well, maybe one of the dogs
had an abortion.

214
00:16:00,335 --> 00:16:01,915
What did you have in mind, Bradley?

215
00:16:02,504 --> 00:16:05,884
I don't know, maybe something about
the allocation of firefighting resources,

216
00:16:05,966 --> 00:16:08,256
how they prioritize
which homes they wanna save.

217
00:16:08,343 --> 00:16:11,513
- Hmm.
- The numbers seem to show an imbalance

218
00:16:11,597 --> 00:16:13,717
towards richer neighborhoods
over poor neighborhoods.

219
00:16:13,807 --> 00:16:17,137
And maybe that's an unconscious bias,
and maybe it's outright corruption,

220
00:16:17,227 --> 00:16:19,187
but either way, it's wrong.

221
00:16:19,271 --> 00:16:21,821
Claire actually found a video on Twitter.

222
00:16:21,899 --> 00:16:26,199
Some celebrities hire private firefighters
to protect their mansions.

223
00:16:26,278 --> 00:16:29,278
Oh, that's kind of an interesting take.
All right, can you send me the link?

224
00:16:29,323 --> 00:16:30,323
Yeah.

225
00:16:30,407 --> 00:16:32,907
All right, it is...
It is interesting. Um...

226
00:16:32,993 --> 00:16:35,953
It might look like
we are denigrating first responders.

227
00:16:36,038 --> 00:16:38,748
Uh, so I'm not sure
it's the right tone for us.

228
00:16:38,832 --> 00:16:40,752
I mean, we're a news program.

229
00:16:41,293 --> 00:16:44,423
I think our tone is the truth,
even when it's ugly.

230
00:16:44,505 --> 00:16:48,585
Oh, my God!
Are you going to do this every day?

231
00:16:49,968 --> 00:16:50,968
Do what?

232
00:16:51,053 --> 00:16:56,483
This I'm-so-down-with-the-people,
superior journalist bullshit.

233
00:16:57,226 --> 00:16:59,686
- It's really obnoxious.
- Wow.

234
00:16:59,770 --> 00:17:02,690
You have no respect for our show
or the work that we do here.

235
00:17:08,194 --> 00:17:10,715
Well, I don't need to lie to myself
about the quality of the show

236
00:17:10,739 --> 00:17:12,949
that you've been producing for 15 years.

237
00:17:13,031 --> 00:17:16,291
Okay, respectfully, we are the number-one
morning news program in the country.

238
00:17:16,368 --> 00:17:19,078
Which is why you're an incredible platform
to open people's eyes

239
00:17:19,164 --> 00:17:20,794
to what's really happening in the world

240
00:17:20,874 --> 00:17:23,754
instead of force-feeding them
a bunch of glossy garbage

241
00:17:23,836 --> 00:17:25,916
that sedates them
into thinking their lives are great

242
00:17:26,002 --> 00:17:27,382
'cause they saved some dogs.

243
00:17:27,464 --> 00:17:29,634
Why?
So we can all just fucking kill ourselves?

244
00:17:31,343 --> 00:17:34,353
- Okay, all right.
- Let's give that to the people! Jesus.

245
00:17:34,429 --> 00:17:36,149
We're all a little tired,
a little hungover.

246
00:17:36,223 --> 00:17:38,853
You cannot begrudge people
for wanting to feel better.

247
00:17:39,268 --> 00:17:43,858
It's part of the job, truth teller.
Like it or not. Oh.

248
00:17:48,861 --> 00:17:51,611
- Well, with all due respect, Alex...
- Mm-hmm.

249
00:17:52,030 --> 00:17:55,080
I think you and I have different ideas
about what this show means.

250
00:17:59,329 --> 00:18:02,249
Okay, I think that we're gonna run
with the dog story for today.

251
00:18:02,332 --> 00:18:05,502
We will dig in deeper on the private
firefighters for tomorrow's show.

252
00:18:06,170 --> 00:18:07,170
Great, thank you.

253
00:18:07,254 --> 00:18:09,384
Okay, great.
We got to get home base locked up.

254
00:18:09,464 --> 00:18:11,184
Let's get moving, everybody. Thank you.

255
00:18:11,675 --> 00:18:13,135
Just try to get some rest.

256
00:18:26,398 --> 00:18:29,648
We're gonna need a bigger trailer.
We're gonna shoot the whole show out here.

257
00:18:30,485 --> 00:18:32,275
Well, you can see the devastation.

258
00:18:32,362 --> 00:18:37,082
Just miles and miles of scorched earth
and remnants of homes.

259
00:18:37,159 --> 00:18:40,409
And this, by the way, is only miles away
from the terrible Woolsey Fire

260
00:18:40,495 --> 00:18:42,325
from the fall of 2018.

261
00:18:42,831 --> 00:18:44,501
And meanwhile, the Santa Anas are...

262
00:18:44,583 --> 00:18:48,003
They're relentless,
and the blaze is only 10% contained.

263
00:18:48,795 --> 00:18:52,085
Hello, Mrs. Rosen? Wait, I lost you.

264
00:18:52,174 --> 00:18:55,474
Hello? Hello? Mrs. Rosen?

265
00:18:56,845 --> 00:18:58,095
Oh, fuck.

266
00:18:59,139 --> 00:19:03,059
Oh, there you are. Yes, yes.
We were so deeply moved by your story.

267
00:19:03,143 --> 00:19:04,943
We would love to...

268
00:19:05,270 --> 00:19:08,520
Mrs. Rosen? Are you still there?

269
00:19:08,941 --> 00:19:12,003
If winds pick up, there's a chance we'd
have to drop signal and go to New York.

270
00:19:12,027 --> 00:19:14,197
Uh, how big of a chance?

271
00:19:14,279 --> 00:19:20,369
In the mythology of most ancient cultures,
fire was imbued with magical properties.

272
00:19:20,452 --> 00:19:23,332
It's referred to as a creature
to be tamed.

273
00:19:24,164 --> 00:19:26,174
You understand that
when you see a fire like this,

274
00:19:26,250 --> 00:19:27,460
I mean, the way it moves,

275
00:19:27,543 --> 00:19:32,553
it seems deliberate, like it's something
with a mind that can think and plan.

276
00:19:33,048 --> 00:19:36,838
Are you telling me about the mythology,
or you want that in the copy?

277
00:19:37,386 --> 00:19:40,216
No, I'm not just telling you, Joel.
I want that in the copy.

278
00:19:41,765 --> 00:19:44,035
- Claire, give me the keys to this thing.
- Yeah. Will do.

279
00:19:44,059 --> 00:19:45,139
Mrs. Rosen!

280
00:19:45,227 --> 00:19:47,372
I won't pretend to know the pain
you're feeling right now.

281
00:19:47,396 --> 00:19:51,816
All I wanna say is,
I think your story could bring awareness,

282
00:19:51,900 --> 00:19:55,820
so that no other family ever has to suffer
the way that yours has.

283
00:19:56,238 --> 00:19:59,028
Yes, please take your time
to think about it.

284
00:19:59,116 --> 00:20:02,486
I'll check in with you soon. Okay. Bye.

285
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,330
Keep that area clear.

286
00:20:15,382 --> 00:20:17,222
God, how are you so good at that?

287
00:20:17,301 --> 00:20:20,301
Speaking to people
that have had these terrible traumas.

288
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,810
You basically just don't avoid the pain.

289
00:20:24,892 --> 00:20:27,732
My mom died when I was ten.
It was pretty sudden.

290
00:20:27,811 --> 00:20:30,651
I guess you could say
I'm smart at tragedy,

291
00:20:30,731 --> 00:20:32,651
which helps booking a morning news show.

292
00:20:33,233 --> 00:20:35,833
But there's basically nothing
anyone can say that makes it better.

293
00:20:35,861 --> 00:20:39,111
Just a lot of things you can say
that make it worse.

294
00:20:40,199 --> 00:20:41,909
I just try not to make it worse.

295
00:20:44,077 --> 00:20:46,657
By the way, we're about to be up
for the next 30 hours.

296
00:20:46,747 --> 00:20:48,207
I have Adderall if you want some.

297
00:20:51,627 --> 00:20:53,337
Yeah. Okay.

298
00:20:54,296 --> 00:20:58,256
Also, remotes are a good opportunity
to make an impression on higher-ups.

299
00:20:58,342 --> 00:21:01,432
Smaller crew, more face time.
People are jacked up.

300
00:21:03,222 --> 00:21:07,022
There's an excitement in the air.
Stuff happens on remotes.

301
00:21:08,018 --> 00:21:10,558
Man, I wish this wind would die down.

302
00:21:13,398 --> 00:21:15,858
Mrs. Rosen. Yes.

303
00:21:16,568 --> 00:21:19,358
Yes, we're on our way.
We'll be there soon.

304
00:22:03,657 --> 00:22:04,777
It doesn't work.

305
00:22:05,826 --> 00:22:07,906
I think they did a great job of...

306
00:22:07,995 --> 00:22:10,075
Putting what was on the page
up on the screen.

307
00:22:10,163 --> 00:22:14,083
That is an accurate representation of
what was on the page. And it doesn't work.

308
00:22:14,168 --> 00:22:15,878
But you greenlit the pilot.

309
00:22:16,211 --> 00:22:17,501
That's true. I did.

310
00:22:18,005 --> 00:22:20,755
So why would you do it
if you hated it so much?

311
00:22:24,887 --> 00:22:26,347
You follow baseball, Kate?

312
00:22:26,430 --> 00:22:27,890
Do I look like I follow baseball?

313
00:22:28,849 --> 00:22:29,849
Yes.

314
00:22:32,769 --> 00:22:33,809
We're talking baseball.

315
00:22:33,896 --> 00:22:36,016
Sometimes a guy,
he bounces around the minors,

316
00:22:36,106 --> 00:22:39,106
he's barely hitting his own weight,
and everybody has called him a washout.

317
00:22:39,193 --> 00:22:44,493
But you, you see something in him,
so you empower him.

318
00:22:44,573 --> 00:22:47,663
You call him up to the majors,
and the first fucking pitch he sees,

319
00:22:47,743 --> 00:22:53,293
he crushes a 500-foot towering home run
over the center-field wall.

320
00:22:53,373 --> 00:22:54,923
It's beautiful. He's a gamer.

321
00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:00,210
So when this guy or gal makes good,

322
00:23:00,297 --> 00:23:03,677
it renews your faith in the game.

323
00:23:03,759 --> 00:23:07,969
And in news. And in life.
It puts a spring in your step.

324
00:23:08,055 --> 00:23:10,783
It makes you wanna come back to the park
again 'cause it may happen again.

325
00:23:10,807 --> 00:23:14,137
And guess what? It does happen again,
and everything is right in the world.

326
00:23:14,895 --> 00:23:17,645
Famine, poverty and pestilence
are a thing of the past.

327
00:23:17,731 --> 00:23:19,401
A tree grows in Brooklyn. Rainbows...

328
00:23:19,483 --> 00:23:21,033
Are we still talking about the pilot?

329
00:23:21,109 --> 00:23:23,649
What else would we be talking about, Kate?

330
00:23:25,072 --> 00:23:27,742
Sometimes, you give a guy an at bat

331
00:23:27,824 --> 00:23:31,454
to show him that baseball
is just not his sport.

332
00:23:31,954 --> 00:23:34,374
You knew it already.
But he didn't know it.

333
00:23:34,456 --> 00:23:37,916
He got a big head when he was putting up
decent numbers in Triple-A.

334
00:23:38,001 --> 00:23:41,921
And what do you know?
He strikes out on three straight pitches.

335
00:23:42,005 --> 00:23:44,085
And then it happens again.
And then it happens again.

336
00:23:44,174 --> 00:23:48,934
So now he knows.
He's just not a big-league hitter.

337
00:23:50,472 --> 00:23:53,892
But more importantly, the scout,

338
00:23:54,434 --> 00:23:57,904
who had been championing this guy
from here to kingdom come...

339
00:23:59,857 --> 00:24:00,977
knows it too.

340
00:24:01,859 --> 00:24:03,439
And that's money well spent.

341
00:24:03,527 --> 00:24:06,817
So, no, I'm not picking it up.
And I'm okay with it.

342
00:24:06,905 --> 00:24:09,525
Charlie Black just showed up.
He wants to talk to you.

343
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,499
Okay. Class dismissed.

344
00:24:17,082 --> 00:24:19,922
Chipper. What's up?
What can I help you with?

345
00:24:20,919 --> 00:24:23,549
It's a little weird seeing you here
with your other hat on.

346
00:24:24,214 --> 00:24:27,134
Well, hats look weird on me in general.
I get it.

347
00:24:27,217 --> 00:24:30,177
In addition to which, my heart is fully
in the news division right now,

348
00:24:30,262 --> 00:24:31,642
for better or worse.

349
00:24:31,722 --> 00:24:36,232
Well, good luck with that.
She can be a cruel mistress, as they say.

350
00:24:36,310 --> 00:24:37,520
Um...

351
00:24:37,603 --> 00:24:42,733
Speaking of which, um, look, you know,
I do understand what's happening here.

352
00:24:42,816 --> 00:24:45,686
You know, if push comes to shove,
I'm gonna be the first one to die.

353
00:24:45,777 --> 00:24:47,067
You're not wrong. Sorry.

354
00:24:47,154 --> 00:24:49,664
And maybe I shouldn't be
bringing this to you,

355
00:24:49,740 --> 00:24:54,240
but I have very few options
and increasingly less to lose.

356
00:24:54,328 --> 00:24:56,708
So, fuck it, here goes.

357
00:24:56,788 --> 00:25:00,208
Look, TV, at this level, is...

358
00:25:00,876 --> 00:25:03,916
It's like the Mafia, you know.

359
00:25:04,004 --> 00:25:06,844
We got a don in a precarious position,

360
00:25:06,924 --> 00:25:10,304
and, as a result,
he's gonna have me whacked.

361
00:25:10,385 --> 00:25:15,425
And, you know, I... I need protection.

362
00:25:16,266 --> 00:25:20,016
So you're coming to the underboss
to propose a coup?

363
00:25:21,355 --> 00:25:24,725
Somehow,
you have come out of this pretty golden.

364
00:25:24,816 --> 00:25:30,736
And I am sure it has crossed your mind
that, uh, Fred's left holding the bag,

365
00:25:30,822 --> 00:25:32,122
and you're kicking ass,

366
00:25:32,199 --> 00:25:36,159
then you could quickly
find yourself in Fred's seat.

367
00:25:38,038 --> 00:25:39,538
Crossed my mind.

368
00:25:42,376 --> 00:25:44,706
So here's the thing.
I wanna help put you there.

369
00:25:48,006 --> 00:25:49,466
How would that happen?

370
00:25:49,550 --> 00:25:52,430
To be honest, I've never done anything
like this before, okay?

371
00:25:52,511 --> 00:25:55,431
But these things have a way
of becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

372
00:25:55,514 --> 00:25:57,434
You know, they...
People hint at a shake-up.

373
00:25:57,516 --> 00:26:02,976
They hint that young hotshot Cory Ellison
is going to succeed Fred Micklen.

374
00:26:03,063 --> 00:26:07,533
And before you know it, you know...
I... I like your chances.

375
00:26:08,527 --> 00:26:11,067
We are the press. You know?

376
00:26:11,154 --> 00:26:14,954
And while I can't have the story placed
at our show, obviously, like,

377
00:26:15,576 --> 00:26:18,246
I've been around a while,
I do have clout, I do have credibility.

378
00:26:18,328 --> 00:26:20,368
And I got a lot of political capital
saved up,

379
00:26:20,455 --> 00:26:23,285
and I can spend that shit
getting the story placed...

380
00:26:24,334 --> 00:26:26,964
at any number of outlets.

381
00:26:28,297 --> 00:26:29,717
It's intriguing.

382
00:26:30,424 --> 00:26:33,184
But I don't see Fred getting taken out

383
00:26:33,260 --> 00:26:35,640
unless something specific
comes out on him.

384
00:26:36,722 --> 00:26:39,732
- Like what?
- I don't know, Chip, like what?

385
00:26:47,900 --> 00:26:50,030
I got to be honest with you, man,
I don't know.

386
00:26:51,069 --> 00:26:52,779
I'd have to think about that.

387
00:26:54,156 --> 00:26:56,946
Organized crime is harder than it looks,
isn't it?

388
00:26:57,868 --> 00:26:58,868
Yeah, it is.

389
00:26:59,328 --> 00:27:00,498
Think about it.

390
00:27:00,829 --> 00:27:02,789
All right. Um...

391
00:27:05,417 --> 00:27:06,787
Thank you for talking to me.

392
00:27:07,336 --> 00:27:12,336
Yeah. Good luck
with that moral compass of yours.

393
00:27:19,515 --> 00:27:22,805
- Copy that.
- Yeah.

394
00:27:24,603 --> 00:27:26,523
That's on the C block. That's C block.

395
00:27:30,901 --> 00:27:34,741
You don't have to wear the mask,
but you have to take it. Just take it.

396
00:27:35,489 --> 00:27:37,449
Oh. I'll help.

397
00:27:37,533 --> 00:27:39,373
Take these and pass them out.

398
00:27:39,451 --> 00:27:41,831
Can you give one of these to Bradley?
She's in her trailer.

399
00:27:41,912 --> 00:27:44,922
Then we can put that in. That'll fit.
Does that work for you, Yanko?

400
00:27:44,998 --> 00:27:47,560
- It's not about me. It's about the fires.
- Apparently you minded about... What?

401
00:27:47,584 --> 00:27:49,312
- That looks good. I like that.
- Okay. All right.

402
00:27:49,336 --> 00:27:50,586
That's all I can do.

403
00:27:57,678 --> 00:27:58,718
Mask.

404
00:27:59,513 --> 00:28:02,563
Bradley, I'm supposed to give you a mask.
It's network policy.

405
00:28:02,641 --> 00:28:03,851
Oh, hey, thanks.

406
00:28:03,934 --> 00:28:07,234
Did you find this article about the actor
that hired the private firefighters?

407
00:28:07,312 --> 00:28:08,942
Yeah, that was me.

408
00:28:09,022 --> 00:28:13,782
This is great stuff. This is fascinating.
Really fucked-up, but fascinating.

409
00:28:13,861 --> 00:28:14,861
Thanks.

410
00:28:14,945 --> 00:28:18,615
If you find another fucked-up story like
this, don't hesitate to bring it to me.

411
00:28:19,116 --> 00:28:20,906
- Oh. Okay. Yeah.
- Okay.

412
00:28:20,993 --> 00:28:22,373
- I will.
- Thanks.

413
00:28:23,203 --> 00:28:25,583
- Claire?
- Yes.

414
00:28:26,164 --> 00:28:28,044
What are your goals around here?

415
00:28:28,125 --> 00:28:31,625
Oh, uh, well, to be completely honest,
I'm still feeling it out.

416
00:28:31,712 --> 00:28:35,722
I'm fascinated by so much of it.
Like, maybe on-air, maybe an EP.

417
00:28:35,799 --> 00:28:38,179
Also I can just see myself
running an entire network.

418
00:28:40,554 --> 00:28:43,274
Okay, well, um,
I've been interviewing assistants.

419
00:28:44,349 --> 00:28:45,679
How's that going?

420
00:28:45,767 --> 00:28:47,347
You know, to be honest, not great.

421
00:28:47,436 --> 00:28:49,706
They just keep sending me
the same cookie-cutter, Ivy League...

422
00:28:49,730 --> 00:28:54,400
Hire me! I'm extremely smart.
I'm incredibly hardworking.

423
00:28:54,484 --> 00:28:57,154
I already know everything about the show
and how to get shit done.

424
00:28:57,237 --> 00:28:59,527
But mainly,
I really want to learn from you.

425
00:29:00,115 --> 00:29:02,945
I realize you maybe weren't remotely
going to offer me the job,

426
00:29:03,035 --> 00:29:04,715
and I apologize
if I just mortified myself.

427
00:29:04,786 --> 00:29:06,366
But I really do mean all of that.

428
00:29:07,539 --> 00:29:09,629
Did you see how many bridges
I burned last week?

429
00:29:09,708 --> 00:29:11,418
Yeah, and I really admire it.

430
00:29:12,085 --> 00:29:15,665
Okay. You're funny,
and you have questionable taste,

431
00:29:15,756 --> 00:29:18,506
but I like that you just come out
and say what you want.

432
00:29:18,592 --> 00:29:21,552
So I think I wanna offer you the job.

433
00:29:22,054 --> 00:29:23,564
- Really?
- Yeah, if you want it.

434
00:29:23,639 --> 00:29:25,469
Yes! Should I just start now?

435
00:29:26,517 --> 00:29:30,267
I would pass out the face masks, then come
back and we can start talking about work.

436
00:29:30,354 --> 00:29:32,814
Amazing. Thank you.
I will not let you down.

437
00:29:32,898 --> 00:29:34,068
I know you won't.

438
00:29:40,531 --> 00:29:41,991
- Guess what?
- Hey.

439
00:29:42,533 --> 00:29:44,243
I just got promoted.

440
00:29:44,326 --> 00:29:45,366
What? You did?

441
00:29:45,452 --> 00:29:49,752
You are now having an affair with
Bradley Jackson's executive assistant.

442
00:29:49,831 --> 00:29:51,791
Come on, Claire. Come on. Please.

443
00:29:52,209 --> 00:29:55,129
Look, it's great news,
no, but use your head.

444
00:29:55,212 --> 00:29:59,012
Okay. I understand. I do.

445
00:30:04,263 --> 00:30:05,813
I'm proud of you.

446
00:30:05,889 --> 00:30:07,219
Me too.

447
00:30:09,893 --> 00:30:11,143
Yes. Yeah.

448
00:30:12,271 --> 00:30:17,361
You look very sexy out here in the wild,
you know. It's unbearable.

449
00:30:17,442 --> 00:30:19,652
Go away. Now.

450
00:30:21,613 --> 00:30:24,243
Look up. Close your eyes.

451
00:30:24,324 --> 00:30:28,004
Look, Alex, I get that you're upset at me
ever since that Ashley interview.

452
00:30:28,078 --> 00:30:32,288
Oh, God, Bradley.
My life is not all about you.

453
00:30:32,374 --> 00:30:35,061
- I'm sorry if what I asked you was rude.
- Guys, I got Mike from an old...

454
00:30:35,085 --> 00:30:37,795
Rude? Rude?

455
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,460
Clear the set, please!

456
00:30:40,966 --> 00:30:44,966
Implying that I'm part
of a conspiracy of silence?

457
00:30:47,222 --> 00:30:48,522
How could that be rude?

458
00:30:48,599 --> 00:30:52,059
Fine. I got all heated up.
It was a question.

459
00:30:52,144 --> 00:30:54,234
My journalistic instinct
told me to ask you.

460
00:30:54,313 --> 00:30:57,823
Oh, that's so grand.
Your curiosity just thrills me.

461
00:30:57,900 --> 00:31:01,360
And I'm in awe of your instincts.
Can we just be honest?

462
00:31:01,445 --> 00:31:02,355
Please.

463
00:31:02,446 --> 00:31:04,816
- I don't like you, and you don't like me.
- I like you.

464
00:31:04,907 --> 00:31:07,487
Oh, come on. Why?
Why are we p... Stop pretending.

465
00:31:07,576 --> 00:31:09,236
Because we have to work together.

466
00:31:09,328 --> 00:31:11,458
Yes, I know we are in this mess now.

467
00:31:11,914 --> 00:31:15,464
But doing this job well requires us
to act like best friends

468
00:31:15,542 --> 00:31:17,462
for exactly two hours a day.

469
00:31:17,544 --> 00:31:20,804
The rest of the time,
we just have to be professional adults

470
00:31:20,881 --> 00:31:23,091
who can tolerate being in the same room.

471
00:31:23,175 --> 00:31:25,055
And I think we can both handle
those boundaries.

472
00:31:25,093 --> 00:31:27,393
I know I can. See if you can.

473
00:31:27,888 --> 00:31:29,518
Come on, Greg! What's happening?

474
00:31:29,598 --> 00:31:32,558
Yeah, we're live in 30 seconds, everyone.
Quiet on the set.

475
00:31:32,643 --> 00:31:33,733
Shit.

476
00:31:33,810 --> 00:31:36,150
Okay, come on, sound, mikes, let's go.

477
00:31:36,230 --> 00:31:38,110
Here. Who's taking my coat?

478
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:41,649
We're live in ten.

479
00:31:43,153 --> 00:31:46,533
Jesus, you can't buy this kind
of production value. Holy shit.

480
00:31:46,615 --> 00:31:50,075
- Which camera do we start with?
- Standby, two. Take it, two. Cue her.

481
00:31:50,786 --> 00:31:52,656
In three, two...

482
00:31:55,165 --> 00:31:57,455
Good morning,
and thank you for joining us.

483
00:31:57,543 --> 00:31:59,646
We're coming to you live
from both coasts this morning

484
00:31:59,670 --> 00:32:03,300
with special coverage of the Huntley Fire
that has devastated California this week.

485
00:32:03,382 --> 00:32:04,632
Alex, Bradley.

486
00:32:05,092 --> 00:32:07,802
Good morning, guys.
Bradley and I are currently standing

487
00:32:07,886 --> 00:32:10,346
in the Santa Monica Mountains
near Huntley Canyon,

488
00:32:10,430 --> 00:32:13,600
where the blaze began,
and the destruction is devastating.

489
00:32:14,601 --> 00:32:16,141
Here's what we know right now.

490
00:32:16,228 --> 00:32:19,268
Seven people are confirmed dead
and dozens are injured,

491
00:32:19,356 --> 00:32:23,026
including four firefighters
who are being treated in area hospitals.

492
00:32:23,527 --> 00:32:25,527
At least 40,000 acres have burned,

493
00:32:25,612 --> 00:32:30,242
and local officials estimate
that close to 1,500 homes have been lost.

494
00:32:30,325 --> 00:32:34,035
And those numbers are still going up
as the fire continues to rage,

495
00:32:34,121 --> 00:32:37,421
only 10% contained at this hour.

496
00:32:37,499 --> 00:32:41,749
100,000 residents have been forced
into mandatory evacuations.

497
00:32:41,837 --> 00:32:45,167
It's difficult to wrap your mind
around the human toll.

498
00:32:45,674 --> 00:32:48,264
It really is, Alex. It's harrowing.

499
00:32:48,927 --> 00:32:50,297
Wow. So awful.

500
00:32:50,387 --> 00:32:53,347
Well, we hope that both of you
are staying safe out there.

501
00:32:53,682 --> 00:32:54,732
Thank you, guys.

502
00:32:55,225 --> 00:32:57,475
It's intense being here
in the middle of all this,

503
00:32:57,561 --> 00:32:59,981
but we're watching out for each other.

504
00:33:00,063 --> 00:33:03,693
Yes, we are.
Now let's go to a live news conference

505
00:33:03,775 --> 00:33:07,105
with Los Angeles County Fire Chief,
Captain Graham Sealy,

506
00:33:07,196 --> 00:33:09,526
for an update on the rescue effort.

507
00:33:09,615 --> 00:33:11,695
- And we're out.
- All right. It's good.

508
00:33:36,558 --> 00:33:37,558
Here.

509
00:33:38,101 --> 00:33:39,601
- Oh, thanks.
- You okay?

510
00:33:39,686 --> 00:33:42,436
Yeah. I'm fine. It's just the smoke.

511
00:33:45,025 --> 00:33:46,435
It's the smoke. I'm fine.

512
00:33:46,527 --> 00:33:47,527
Okay. All right.

513
00:33:47,611 --> 00:33:49,661
Dog guy's on next, all right?
Five minutes.

514
00:33:49,738 --> 00:33:50,738
Okay.

515
00:33:51,823 --> 00:33:55,793
Oh, come on. Okay.
You got to really get there, okay?

516
00:33:57,079 --> 00:34:00,579
All right, everyone,
we're live in five, four...

517
00:34:03,669 --> 00:34:06,209
We are here live with Tim Eavers.

518
00:34:06,296 --> 00:34:08,126
Welcome to The Morning Show, Tim.

519
00:34:08,215 --> 00:34:10,295
Thanks so much
for being here with us today.

520
00:34:10,384 --> 00:34:11,394
It's my great pleasure.

521
00:34:11,467 --> 00:34:15,757
I've been watching you for the past
15 years through every major emergency,

522
00:34:15,848 --> 00:34:17,808
and I'm a huge fan.

523
00:34:17,891 --> 00:34:19,891
I watched your daughter grow up
on the show.

524
00:34:19,976 --> 00:34:22,396
- Oh, that's great. Thank you.
- Yeah.

525
00:34:22,478 --> 00:34:25,148
She's quite the grown woman these days.

526
00:34:25,232 --> 00:34:27,532
Color me an empty nester, you know?

527
00:34:28,694 --> 00:34:31,494
So, Tim,
this is an incredible act of heroism.

528
00:34:31,572 --> 00:34:34,282
And how many dogs
have you rescued altogether now?

529
00:34:34,366 --> 00:34:36,906
- Uh, eighteen. And, uh, two cats.
- Wow. That's incredible.

530
00:34:36,994 --> 00:34:40,414
Wow. So, Tim, take us back to that moment.

531
00:34:40,914 --> 00:34:45,344
So once I realized that my wife
had picked up my daughter from school,

532
00:34:45,418 --> 00:34:47,588
and they were safely situated in a motel,

533
00:34:47,670 --> 00:34:51,050
- I went home to get treasured items...
- This guy Tim is great.

534
00:34:51,132 --> 00:34:54,142
And to pick up our two family dogs,

535
00:34:54,219 --> 00:34:59,269
Marge, who's an old Lab,
and Tilly, who is her own puppy.

536
00:34:59,975 --> 00:35:03,395
Oh, that's so sweet. So you kept
the mother-daughter relationship intact.

537
00:35:03,478 --> 00:35:05,768
Oh, yeah, you don't wanna be
busting up a family.

538
00:35:09,860 --> 00:35:13,240
The smoke is really... Excuse me.

539
00:35:13,322 --> 00:35:14,822
What... What was that?

540
00:35:14,907 --> 00:35:17,157
Yes, there is a lot of smoke out here.

541
00:35:17,242 --> 00:35:20,832
So, Tim, once you got the dogs in the car,
then what happened?

542
00:35:20,913 --> 00:35:24,833
Well, at that point, the fires were pretty
close, so there was a lot of sirens.

543
00:35:24,917 --> 00:35:26,747
And dogs were just barking everywhere.

544
00:35:26,835 --> 00:35:28,745
And that's when I realized,

545
00:35:28,837 --> 00:35:32,087
man, there was a lot of people
like my wife and my daughter

546
00:35:32,174 --> 00:35:34,554
who were at work and at school.

547
00:35:34,635 --> 00:35:36,755
So I just started driving
around the neighborhood

548
00:35:36,845 --> 00:35:38,805
and checking all these different yards

549
00:35:38,889 --> 00:35:40,889
and finding all these dogs
that got left behind.

550
00:35:44,811 --> 00:35:47,061
Hey, Greg,
let's move on to the strays now.

551
00:35:47,147 --> 00:35:49,017
Okay, and now the strays.

552
00:35:49,483 --> 00:35:50,783
Yes. Okay.

553
00:35:51,527 --> 00:35:55,697
So, Tim, we have four of the dogs
here today that you've rescued.

554
00:35:56,532 --> 00:35:58,782
Let's...
Tell us a little bit about these big guys.

555
00:35:58,867 --> 00:36:05,617
Okay, so these guys are from a family
who, sadly, their home burnt down.

556
00:36:05,958 --> 00:36:10,458
I know that nobody likes feeling alone,
you know?

557
00:36:10,546 --> 00:36:16,466
So, if someone out there is suffering
or in emotional pain, or needs a family,

558
00:36:16,552 --> 00:36:19,142
they might want to adopt
one of these little angels.

559
00:36:19,221 --> 00:36:20,931
I wanna give you a home.

560
00:36:21,014 --> 00:36:22,854
Greg, what the fuck
is happening right now?

561
00:36:22,933 --> 00:36:24,353
She's about to lose it.

562
00:36:24,434 --> 00:36:26,984
It looks like this one
might have found a home already.

563
00:36:27,771 --> 00:36:31,191
- Isn't that right, Alex?
- It's just so emotional, everything today.

564
00:36:31,275 --> 00:36:34,185
What you're doing,
it's just... it's beautiful.

565
00:36:34,278 --> 00:36:37,948
We're gonna get through this together.
And God is gonna help us.

566
00:36:38,031 --> 00:36:39,342
Donny, no more close-ups on Alex.

567
00:36:39,366 --> 00:36:41,094
- Go right to Bradley. Stay on her.
- Cut her mike.

568
00:36:41,118 --> 00:36:42,698
Wrap it up, now. Wrap it.

569
00:36:42,786 --> 00:36:45,616
If you're interested in adopting
one of these incredible dogs,

570
00:36:45,706 --> 00:36:48,206
you can find all of that info
on our website.

571
00:36:48,292 --> 00:36:50,542
Unless Alex beats you to it, of course.

572
00:36:50,961 --> 00:36:54,211
Stay with us for more special coverage
of the Huntley Canyon Fire,

573
00:36:54,298 --> 00:36:55,588
here on The Morning Show.

574
00:36:55,674 --> 00:36:58,094
Okay, and we're clear. We're clear. Clear.

575
00:37:04,224 --> 00:37:05,234
Thank you.

576
00:37:06,852 --> 00:37:08,652
Uh... Excuse me.

577
00:37:10,189 --> 00:37:11,189
She doing okay?

578
00:37:11,273 --> 00:37:13,653
- That was great, okay? Thank you.
- Can I get that...

579
00:37:14,067 --> 00:37:15,987
Can I get that picture with her, or...

580
00:37:23,827 --> 00:37:25,513
- What's going on?
- You got to do something.

581
00:37:25,537 --> 00:37:27,265
- She just needs five minutes.
- I don't have five minutes!

582
00:37:27,289 --> 00:37:29,669
- Where is she?
- She's in the trailer. Jesus.

583
00:37:30,375 --> 00:37:32,035
Alex, open the door.

584
00:37:32,461 --> 00:37:35,301
I literally need her on camera
in, like, eight minutes.

585
00:37:38,967 --> 00:37:41,507
I'm fine. What is the problem?

586
00:37:44,515 --> 00:37:46,395
- You think she's fine?
- She said she was fine.

587
00:37:46,475 --> 00:37:49,595
- No, she's not fucking fine. I'm going in.
- Wait, you're going in there?

588
00:37:49,686 --> 00:37:52,606
Yes, trust me. I am very well-versed
with people on the verge.

589
00:37:58,487 --> 00:38:00,907
Oh, my God, what is wrong with you?

590
00:38:01,698 --> 00:38:04,988
Honestly. I don't want you in here.

591
00:38:05,077 --> 00:38:09,867
I don't want anyone in here.
What are you trying to prove? Jesus.

592
00:38:11,708 --> 00:38:12,878
Oh, Jesus.

593
00:38:20,342 --> 00:38:22,852
Okay. Okay. Here.

594
00:38:23,887 --> 00:38:25,757
I got you. I got you.

595
00:38:30,018 --> 00:38:31,478
Just let it out.

596
00:38:32,980 --> 00:38:33,980
It's okay.

597
00:38:37,484 --> 00:38:38,904
Come here. Come here, come here.

598
00:38:41,780 --> 00:38:42,910
Come here.

599
00:38:43,365 --> 00:38:44,445
Okay.

600
00:38:48,203 --> 00:38:49,333
It's okay.

601
00:38:51,665 --> 00:38:54,915
You're gonna be okay. You'll be all right.

602
00:39:01,508 --> 00:39:02,508
Here.

603
00:39:04,595 --> 00:39:06,595
Okay, breathe. Just breathe.

604
00:39:24,406 --> 00:39:25,446
Okay.

605
00:39:28,994 --> 00:39:30,204
Okay.

606
00:39:32,539 --> 00:39:34,669
You can go now. I'm fine.

607
00:39:36,418 --> 00:39:37,708
You can go now.

608
00:39:38,295 --> 00:39:40,335
All right, I'm just gonna stick around
for a minute.

609
00:39:40,380 --> 00:39:42,510
No, no. Bradley, please.

610
00:39:43,592 --> 00:39:46,682
I want you to leave now. Okay?

611
00:39:47,971 --> 00:39:51,431
You got to see that.
You got to see me break. Whoo-hoo!

612
00:39:51,517 --> 00:39:54,387
You got a really great show. All right?
So, come on.

613
00:39:54,853 --> 00:39:56,363
Please, just go.

614
00:39:58,023 --> 00:39:59,153
Please, get out of here!

615
00:39:59,233 --> 00:40:00,613
Okay. All right.

616
00:40:06,073 --> 00:40:08,533
Yeah, I und...
I need somebody on standby, so...

617
00:40:09,785 --> 00:40:11,825
Hey, uh, what's... what's going on?

618
00:40:11,912 --> 00:40:12,912
She's calming down.

619
00:40:12,996 --> 00:40:15,536
Just give her a few minutes
and then send in hair and makeup.

620
00:40:15,624 --> 00:40:18,674
I'll go cover the next segment.
Beyond that, I don't know.

621
00:40:19,253 --> 00:40:22,593
Okay. Um... Thank you.

622
00:40:23,173 --> 00:40:24,423
Yeah. Of course.

623
00:40:37,729 --> 00:40:38,729
Hey.

624
00:40:39,273 --> 00:40:40,273
Hi.

625
00:40:41,483 --> 00:40:43,193
Oh, yeah. Thanks.

626
00:40:48,532 --> 00:40:52,952
So. What the hell?

627
00:40:57,165 --> 00:41:00,035
Jason and I are, uh, getting a divorce.

628
00:41:04,047 --> 00:41:06,757
Oh, my God. I'm so sorry.

629
00:41:06,842 --> 00:41:09,512
No, you know,
it's been coming for a really long time.

630
00:41:11,013 --> 00:41:13,603
We haven't been in a good place for years.

631
00:41:17,060 --> 00:41:18,400
But just...

632
00:41:19,396 --> 00:41:20,686
It's Lizzy.

633
00:41:23,025 --> 00:41:27,315
That's my family,
and I don't know what else I have.

634
00:41:28,155 --> 00:41:33,155
Anyway, I'll handle it so that it doesn't
hurt the show any more than it has to.

635
00:41:34,203 --> 00:41:36,253
I'm sure there's gonna be some fallout,
of course,

636
00:41:36,330 --> 00:41:40,330
but, you know, we were America's family.

637
00:41:40,417 --> 00:41:41,587
Fucking bullshit.

638
00:41:52,429 --> 00:41:53,889
That's good. Push that.

639
00:41:56,099 --> 00:41:59,059
Hey, uh, the press is putting out
all kinds of feelers

640
00:41:59,144 --> 00:42:00,984
about the Alex meltdown from this morning.

641
00:42:01,063 --> 00:42:02,943
No. Do not let them
make a big deal out of this.

642
00:42:03,023 --> 00:42:05,073
Alex Levy is not having
an emotional breakdown.

643
00:42:05,150 --> 00:42:09,530
She is simply moved by the fire and
the victims and all the sweet puppy dogs.

644
00:42:09,613 --> 00:42:11,453
- Stick to that.
- Right, copy that.

645
00:42:12,533 --> 00:42:14,163
Oh, shit.

646
00:42:15,035 --> 00:42:16,035
Hey, Fred.

647
00:42:16,119 --> 00:42:17,119
Goddamn it, Chip.

648
00:42:17,204 --> 00:42:19,044
Why the fuck is my property manager

649
00:42:19,122 --> 00:42:21,462
telling me that
there are investigators from TMS

650
00:42:21,542 --> 00:42:26,672
trying to interview the hired firefighters
working to save my home?

651
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,840
Yeah, that's a story
that, uh, Bradley's doing tomorrow.

652
00:42:30,926 --> 00:42:35,216
We didn't know one of the locations
was your property.

653
00:42:35,305 --> 00:42:37,845
Fred! Fred, Loki's been burned.

654
00:42:37,933 --> 00:42:40,773
Look. I'm in hell here.
My home might burn down.

655
00:42:40,853 --> 00:42:43,563
I got to find somewhere
to put Geneva's fucking horses.

656
00:42:44,314 --> 00:42:46,024
Kill the goddamn story.

657
00:42:52,781 --> 00:42:53,821
Fuck.

658
00:43:12,676 --> 00:43:13,966
Oh, Jesus.

659
00:43:14,803 --> 00:43:18,433
- Everything I brought smells like smoke.
- I know. It's sexy, isn't it?

660
00:43:20,267 --> 00:43:23,397
Oh, my God.
Fires. Fires take it out of you.

661
00:43:24,146 --> 00:43:26,516
I just got to see what Chip wanted,
then I'm gonna pass out.

662
00:43:26,940 --> 00:43:28,820
- Good night.
- Night.

663
00:43:32,070 --> 00:43:34,110
I hear you. It's not my decision.

664
00:43:34,573 --> 00:43:36,123
But you're the producer.

665
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,330
But it's Fred's network.
There's very little I can do here.

666
00:43:39,411 --> 00:43:41,501
What kind of news organization is this?

667
00:43:41,580 --> 00:43:43,420
I don't fucking know,
to be honest with you.

668
00:43:43,498 --> 00:43:45,628
I wish I had a good answer for that.
But I...

669
00:43:46,335 --> 00:43:49,085
I know I'm an annoying
pain in your ass, okay?

670
00:43:49,171 --> 00:43:50,607
But if it makes you feel any better,

671
00:43:50,631 --> 00:43:54,471
I've been an annoying pain in the ass
to everybody I've ever worked with.

672
00:43:54,968 --> 00:43:57,928
I push. It's just my nature.

673
00:43:58,430 --> 00:44:02,520
And, Jesus, I wish to God
sometimes it wasn't.

674
00:44:03,602 --> 00:44:06,652
But I've realized I can't change it,

675
00:44:06,730 --> 00:44:12,320
and I guess I just... I learned
to just lean into the fucking turn.

676
00:44:13,445 --> 00:44:16,065
Look, I get it, okay.
You don't have to apologize to me.

677
00:44:16,156 --> 00:44:18,276
I'm not apologizing.
I was just explaining it.

678
00:44:18,367 --> 00:44:20,157
I understand, okay.

679
00:44:20,244 --> 00:44:23,664
I see you in that room today,
pitching me that story.

680
00:44:24,623 --> 00:44:27,253
- It's a fucking good story.
- It's a great story!

681
00:44:27,334 --> 00:44:31,214
It is. And I'm the fucking asshole
who has to shut you down.

682
00:44:31,296 --> 00:44:34,626
And I used to be you.
That's what I used to do. I used to push.

683
00:44:34,716 --> 00:44:39,096
But now I'm in this position
where I can't push anymore

684
00:44:39,179 --> 00:44:42,849
because I have to hold the middle
from being pulled to the other side

685
00:44:42,933 --> 00:44:46,653
and keep the whole fucking thing
from falling down the mountain.

686
00:44:46,728 --> 00:44:48,938
And then you wake up one day
and you're like,

687
00:44:49,022 --> 00:44:54,492
"Did I used to push? What direction
did I push in when I was even a pusher?"

688
00:44:54,570 --> 00:44:57,700
I don't know why I keep saying pusher
right now, but it's fucking...

689
00:45:00,158 --> 00:45:02,428
Let's just be clear.
You're not talking about drugs, right?

690
00:45:02,452 --> 00:45:05,052
Oh, no, I was a drug dealer.
That's what I was trying to tell you.

691
00:45:07,708 --> 00:45:10,168
You're pretty funny for a broken person.

692
00:45:11,628 --> 00:45:13,628
That's the sweetest thing
you've ever said to me.

693
00:45:13,714 --> 00:45:16,184
- Well...
- I want that on my tombstone. That's...

694
00:45:16,258 --> 00:45:19,758
Wind's shifted, guys, and we need
to pack up the site and move.

695
00:45:19,845 --> 00:45:21,005
- Right now.
- Okay, okay.

696
00:45:21,096 --> 00:45:23,426
Right now. Come on.
Cars are waiting outside.

697
00:45:26,476 --> 00:45:28,436
- Hey, Bradley.
- Yeah.

698
00:45:30,189 --> 00:45:33,149
What if we said, "Fuck Fred"
and ran the story anyway?

699
00:45:36,570 --> 00:45:38,280
Can you be ready in time?

700
00:45:38,906 --> 00:45:41,196
Ye... Yeah. Yeah.

701
00:45:41,950 --> 00:45:43,370
- Let's do it.
- Okay.

702
00:45:52,669 --> 00:45:55,919
Hey. Excuse me, guys.
Sir, can you talk to me for just a second?

703
00:45:56,006 --> 00:45:57,756
I'm with The Morning Show.

704
00:45:57,841 --> 00:46:01,221
How long have you and your team been
working here to save this private estate?

705
00:46:01,303 --> 00:46:02,433
Since last night.

706
00:46:02,513 --> 00:46:03,723
Do you think it's fair

707
00:46:03,805 --> 00:46:06,784
that certain wealthy people can afford
private firefighters to save their homes

708
00:46:06,808 --> 00:46:09,098
while others are forced
to brave the elements?

709
00:46:09,186 --> 00:46:12,106
There is no "fair" here.
People are desperate to save their homes.

710
00:46:12,189 --> 00:46:14,189
You can't blame them
for doing what they can.

711
00:46:14,274 --> 00:46:17,864
On the way here, a whole neighborhood
very close by was burned to the ground.

712
00:46:17,945 --> 00:46:20,695
Small homes, there weren't
nearly as many firefighters.

713
00:46:20,781 --> 00:46:22,501
People picking up
the pieces of their lives.

714
00:46:22,533 --> 00:46:23,703
What do you think about that?

715
00:46:23,784 --> 00:46:26,374
I wish everybody had extra money
to hire extra help.

716
00:46:26,453 --> 00:46:30,963
We're just doing what we can here.
This is America. Money matters.

717
00:46:31,416 --> 00:46:32,666
Thank you, sir.

718
00:46:32,751 --> 00:46:34,881
From Malibu, I'm Bradley Jackson.

719
00:46:58,402 --> 00:46:59,862
Fuck you, Fred.

720
00:47:52,206 --> 00:47:53,246
Claire.

721
00:47:53,665 --> 00:47:55,785
You felt too far away.

722
00:48:12,851 --> 00:48:14,521
What are you doing?

723
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:19,480
Coming.

724
00:48:26,698 --> 00:48:27,698
Hey.

725
00:48:28,033 --> 00:48:29,033
Hi.

726
00:48:34,498 --> 00:48:36,918
I ju... I just wanted you to know

727
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:43,880
that I know
that I've been really erratic today.

728
00:48:45,759 --> 00:48:46,759
Okay.

729
00:48:48,303 --> 00:48:51,973
Um, there's... There's more. Um...

730
00:48:56,061 --> 00:49:01,321
Also, the reason
that I lost my shit earlier is that, um...

731
00:49:03,986 --> 00:49:05,986
I'm getting a divorce.

732
00:49:07,489 --> 00:49:08,489
Oh.

733
00:49:09,950 --> 00:49:11,370
I'm sorry.

734
00:49:11,827 --> 00:49:14,197
It's okay. I'll live.

735
00:49:16,456 --> 00:49:17,956
Is there anything I can do?

736
00:49:18,041 --> 00:49:20,211
No, don't... No.

737
00:49:23,839 --> 00:49:25,259
It's just, uh...

738
00:49:28,343 --> 00:49:29,553
my daughter.

739
00:49:32,222 --> 00:49:33,602
I don't want to lose her.

740
00:49:33,682 --> 00:49:36,522
I know she is gonna blame me,
and she's going to blame my job.

741
00:49:36,977 --> 00:49:38,057
And...

742
00:49:40,105 --> 00:49:42,765
I just can't stand the idea
of my daughter...

743
00:49:44,151 --> 00:49:45,901
thinking badly of me.

744
00:49:50,365 --> 00:49:51,865
That's a lot to carry.

745
00:49:53,827 --> 00:49:54,827
Yeah.

746
00:49:57,623 --> 00:49:58,873
Okay, good night.

747
00:50:20,854 --> 00:50:21,944
Alex!

748
00:50:23,106 --> 00:50:24,396
- Hey.
- Yeah?

749
00:50:29,238 --> 00:50:33,988
Look, life is messy.
Everybody's life is messy and complicated.

750
00:50:34,409 --> 00:50:37,829
Parents and kids, it's a lot.

751
00:50:38,956 --> 00:50:41,786
And, uh, my... my mom is a fucking mess.

752
00:50:42,584 --> 00:50:44,804
I don't know what to do with her
half the time.

753
00:50:46,296 --> 00:50:51,426
And it's probably because...
my dad was a real bad drunk,

754
00:50:51,510 --> 00:50:57,020
and... one time he was driving the car,
and he killed a kid.

755
00:51:01,395 --> 00:51:05,605
And I only say that
because I was furious with my dad.

756
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,400
And I pushed him out of my life.

757
00:51:09,611 --> 00:51:11,611
But I never stopped loving him.

758
00:51:13,532 --> 00:51:17,122
And that's... that's just how it is
with parents and kids.

759
00:51:18,996 --> 00:51:22,996
And I guarantee, no matter
what you didn't do for your daughter,

760
00:51:23,083 --> 00:51:26,383
that you think you didn't make
some perfect life,

761
00:51:26,461 --> 00:51:29,011
whatever the fuck that is, for her,

762
00:51:30,507 --> 00:51:32,627
she loves you so much.

763
00:51:34,845 --> 00:51:35,965
Thank you.

764
00:51:39,474 --> 00:51:44,064
You're actually pretty lovable
when you're not acting like a wet cat.

765
00:51:46,398 --> 00:51:49,528
And I want you to know
that you can trust me.

766
00:51:50,527 --> 00:51:54,447
You can tell me things.
You can be vulnerable. It's okay.

767
00:51:57,910 --> 00:52:01,160
Okay. Thank you.

768
00:52:02,956 --> 00:52:04,706
- Night.
- Good night.

769
00:53:23,161 --> 00:53:24,751
Hey, Cory. It's Chip.

770
00:53:24,830 --> 00:53:25,910
What's up?

771
00:53:26,415 --> 00:53:28,205
Uh, I think I'm ready to talk.
