00:00:00The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the RCMP, the Mounties, a symbol to all the world of
00:00:24justice and principle, courage and courtesy. Mounties in plain clothes enforce the federal
00:00:35drug and narcotic laws. The dope peddler casually lights a cigarette and throws the empty box
00:00:45away. The new recreational cannabis regime will officially come into force on October
00:00:5117th of this year. Every dog has its day and Kona has had hers, at least with the RCMP. The three-year-old
00:01:02German Shepherd, trained to sniff for drugs, including marijuana, is being replaced. Well,
00:01:07the new marijuana laws definitely have changed the rules for us.
00:01:21I'm your drug dealer, Luke. It's never gonna happen.
00:01:32Two times at 4640 Paradise. Code 4.
00:01:36Want your usual order there, Bump?
00:01:38No, I got plenty. I'm actually here as a friend. Well, and future husband. They give us specific
00:01:47orders to shut down anything that's not government run.
00:01:50I guess you'll be buying elsewhere?
00:01:51I can't be seen buying pot. I don't have a prescription.
00:01:56How are you okay with this? You're a traitor to the cause. And you wonder why I'm not interested.
00:02:06Ours is a love of the ages, like Romeo and Juliet. What am I supposed to do this?
00:02:10Break it up. Not too fine. She's got arthritis. I'm just great.
00:02:19And we're not stupid. You're known, Anne. I mean, I'm not going to bust your door down,
00:02:23but some cop wanting to increase their quota might.
00:02:26Right. Everybody wants to smoke, but nobody wants it in their backyard.
00:02:37Whoa, what's this? You're blowing now?
00:02:40Come on, relax. It's just a couple of plants. This is Marilyn. Say hi.
00:02:46Ma'am?
00:02:49It's fucking ridiculous. I mean, I fought for legalization. I should be celebrating
00:02:54on Monday, not looking over my fucking shoulder.
00:03:10Anne, I need you out or I need the rent.
00:03:13Are you kidding me? You're a broke drug dealer?
00:03:16I can't breathe, Luke. Not heroin. It's the McDonald's of drugs.
00:03:20You know, I heard that Winnipeg is nice this time of year.
00:03:24Start here at Winnipeg's International Airport. Some people call it the Taj Mahal of the Canadian Prairies.
00:03:30No matter how you look at it, Winnipeg is growing up.
00:03:42I'm sorry to be a bummer, but it's time to move on.
00:03:45I thought you weren't giving up.
00:03:47You know, I'm glad that we're communicating so openly. It's the foundation of any strong relationship.
00:03:53Mel?
00:03:57Where have you been? You're late.
00:04:11You know I like mine before breakfast.
00:04:13Bus troubles.
00:04:15Why don't you Uber?
00:04:17Um, Kidnapper Express. A new thank you.
00:04:21Oh!
00:04:25My super life said hello.
00:04:32He could be a serial killer.
00:04:34Seriously, he doesn't even need to stalk you. He just needs a Tinder profile.
00:04:40Oh.
00:04:41Wants to meet this afternoon.
00:04:43He's hungry.
00:04:44You know what serial killers have in common?
00:04:46They're all white, and they're all clean looking.
00:04:50Well, I find them to be very polite and eager to please.
00:04:55And they really love gilts.
00:04:57What's a gilf?
00:04:59Grandma, I'd like to...
00:05:02Still so weird.
00:05:04Cause I'm old?
00:05:05No, you're just so open about it.
00:05:07Well, we Canadians like to keep our drugs and our fucking behind closed doors.
00:05:12Yeah, got it. Here.
00:05:16Mmm.
00:05:28Big day. Lots of deliveries.
00:05:31Well...
00:05:32If you want a Netflix and show with Ted Bundy, that's on you.
00:05:37Bonus!
00:05:38Penis pic.
00:05:40Oh, God.
00:05:43Fuck me.
00:05:46Oh, fuck it. I've had a good life.
00:05:53Here.
00:05:54I'll ask him if he's a serial killer, just so you don't have to worry about me.
00:05:57Great.
00:05:59Weed is set to become legal across Canada.
00:06:01Lineups are already forming in front of CD, CBO stores across the province,
00:06:05with demand already threatening to outstrip supply.
00:06:07So the government finally did it.
00:06:09Yep.
00:06:11They managed to take the fun out of legal weed.
00:06:15I was so excited about it.
00:06:17Until our nanny state of the government stepped in.
00:06:28Is this gonna affect you?
00:06:29Huh?
00:06:30I'll be okay.
00:06:32I'll keep a low profile, not take on any new clients, but...
00:06:37Everyone's regulars, so...
00:06:39It's fine.
00:06:41Well, my love.
00:06:43I won't be on Monday.
00:06:45Why?
00:06:47Shoppers is carrying it.
00:06:49So?
00:06:51I have a points card.
00:06:53And with the amount I smoke, I'll be racking them up.
00:06:56You're leaving me for points?
00:06:58Hey, that shit adds up.
00:07:00I've been with you for years.
00:07:02I've helped you manage pain, and if it wasn't for me, you'd probably be addicted to painkillers.
00:07:07Business is business.
00:07:09You were an activist.
00:07:11You're like in jail for a while or something.
00:07:14You're seriously gonna buy from some faceless capitalist assholes?
00:07:17Do you have a points program?
00:07:21No. Do you have a loyalty program?
00:07:23What about LSD?
00:07:25LSD?
00:07:26You know I only sell weed.
00:07:28Then you've got a problem.
00:07:30But you're a smart girl.
00:07:32You'll figure something out.
00:07:40Thanks, Grandma.
00:07:47You're a smart girl.
00:07:48You're a smart girl.
00:07:49He's a smart girl.
00:07:50You're a smart girl.
00:07:52You are smart girl.
00:07:55Yeah.
00:07:58Diaper weed.
00:08:01No!
00:08:04No!
00:08:05I don't know.
00:08:07No!!!
00:08:08No!
00:08:10No!
00:08:12No!
00:08:13Yeah!
00:08:14I told you, I don't give a fuck about your IT issues.
00:08:34I lost millions because you couldn't make the trade.
00:08:37I want you to make good.
00:08:38Or I'm going to go with someone who doesn't have fucking dial-up.
00:08:42No peeking.
00:08:43Don't flatter yourself.
00:08:45Fuck.
00:08:49Ground as per request.
00:08:53Someone doing what I asked?
00:08:56You want a job?
00:08:59No.
00:09:00I'm good.
00:09:07What?
00:09:08No line.
00:09:09No peeking.
00:09:13Oh, the government mafia, man.
00:09:16Those fuckers.
00:09:18They take no prisoners.
00:09:19I'm hoping for loyalty from my customers.
00:09:23Oh, man.
00:09:25Fucking brilliant.
00:09:26Loyalty.
00:09:27I love it.
00:09:27You would love my old man.
00:09:30Oh, hey.
00:09:31Check out this new app.
00:09:33It's like the Tinder of We.
00:09:36I can choose from like 300 varieties and it's delivered in an hour.
00:09:39Just swipe right.
00:09:40Yeah, I'm not going to stand in line like some stoner schmuck or wait for Canada to post.
00:09:46This motherfucker up this game.
00:09:47But we found the strain that works for you.
00:09:50Yeah, well, maybe I want to mix it up a little.
00:09:51Okay, then don't smoke at work.
00:09:53It focuses me.
00:09:54Yeah, because of me.
00:09:57Okay.
00:09:57Smoke Godfather OG and you will not know what the fuck you're trading.
00:10:02Afghan Kush is going to knock you out.
00:10:06Okay, Charlotte's Web is made for people with epilepsy and has 0.3% THC.
00:10:11Team Drizzy.
00:10:13Belieber.
00:10:16These aren't even fucking strings.
00:10:18You don't know what's in them.
00:10:20This is a total gimmick, Brent.
00:10:26Nice.
00:10:27Look, I'm not Domino's, okay?
00:10:30I don't deliver in 30 minutes or less.
00:10:32I'm like a good tailor.
00:10:33I know my shit and I cut to fit.
00:10:35They even have a loyalty points program.
00:10:37Fucking A.
00:10:40Loyalty being the key word here.
00:10:43Since you met me, you have experienced record returns.
00:10:46And actually, I should be charging you more money.
00:10:48Because without me, you'd still be sitting in that shitty cubicle wearing off-the-rack suits driving a Civic instead of a Porsche, okay?
00:10:56Look, I don't deliver points.
00:10:58I deliver a seven-figure bonus.
00:11:00No, I deliver.
00:11:02You just work on the fucking line.
00:11:10Fuck you.
00:11:12Tell her I said hi.
00:11:13Why would you buy in bulk now?
00:11:16Ideala gave me a great deal.
00:11:18I have the best shit in town.
00:11:21CDCBO closes at five.
00:11:22They don't have enough for supply.
00:11:24I figured demand's gonna increase with legalization.
00:11:27What about the club?
00:11:28People want to go up, not down.
00:11:31You know, if you dealt in Coke.
00:11:33Coke.
00:11:35Coke.
00:11:36Heroin.
00:11:37Pills.
00:11:37That shit just fucks you up.
00:11:39At least with the weed, you know, it helps people.
00:11:43I kind of feel like one of those country doctors.
00:11:47You know, making house calls and checking in on people, offering advice, a little relief.
00:11:54Well, it's the things that fuck you up that make you rich.
00:11:57So, unless you find some new patients, the only gig left, doing house calls, is Uber Eats.
00:12:03Luke says I'm on their radar.
00:12:06And I can't trust new clients unless I get references, but I don't have time.
00:12:09You hit that yet?
00:12:11Luke?
00:12:12Luke?
00:12:15No.
00:12:16Why not?
00:12:17He's nice, but he's so eager.
00:12:21He's constantly saying sorry for everything.
00:12:24It's not hot.
00:12:25Huh.
00:12:26Nice.
00:12:27Eager.
00:12:29Constantly apologizing.
00:12:31Sounds like you hit the bedroom jackpot right there.
00:12:33Mind if I call him?
00:12:35You sound like my grandma.
00:12:37We're both women of the world.
00:12:39We've learned shit.
00:12:40Like diversify.
00:12:42Your portfolio.
00:12:48I will talk to Steve at the club.
00:12:52I'm sorry.
00:12:53I know he's a douchebag.
00:12:56He is a slimy cocksucker.
00:13:03Maple syrup goes with fucking everything.
00:13:07Honey, I'm not Costco.
00:13:09I don't do returns.
00:13:10Oh, my God.
00:13:18Have your parents seen that yet?
00:13:19Of course they have.
00:13:21Now that it's legal and I've met Prime Minister Hot Stuff, my parents think I'm a visionary.
00:13:26I even smoked up with my mom last week.
00:13:28It was really special.
00:13:29Coffee, weed, and vinyl.
00:13:35Yeah.
00:13:36The weekend hipster trifecta.
00:13:37And you even made it ethnic.
00:13:38And you even made it ethnic.
00:13:40Like bees do, honey.
00:13:42Fuck your smarts.
00:13:43Well, I'll be moving out soon, but for now, this serves its purpose.
00:13:47Since I do most of my business online, that's all they see.
00:13:50Green health?
00:13:53Sounds like an enema.
00:13:54I need to bring a veneer of respectability to my business, especially now that I'm going legit.
00:13:59You're opening a store?
00:14:00No.
00:14:00Well, I'm now a government-licensed lab.
00:14:04I'm a micro-cultivator.
00:14:06You are?
00:14:07Yeah.
00:14:07I'm the poster child for a new day, and I'm going to grow like Jeff Bezos.
00:14:12I'm going to be the Amazon of weed.
00:14:14Well, great.
00:14:15Then you can buy my stuff back, no problem.
00:14:18I'll even take a hit on the buyback.
00:14:19Look, I know this is a weird request, but I've always been loyal, and most of my people
00:14:27left, so I just need to get back on my feet.
00:14:30I can't.
00:14:31It's all regulated.
00:14:33I make one misstep, they pull my license.
00:14:35Fuck.
00:14:36Really?
00:14:38What if I sell it back to you 30% below what I paid for?
00:14:40You're making a profit on a profit.
00:14:42Isn't that like your mantra?
00:14:44My mantra?
00:14:46I'm brown.
00:14:47I'm a woman.
00:14:48I'm going to get screwed.
00:14:49So always look for the next opportunity.
00:14:54But you sold me all this.
00:14:58And you're the one who had a great plan.
00:15:00Listen, Adila, I need this.
00:15:02If I can't make rent, I'm out on my ass, and people aren't buying the way I thought they
00:15:06would.
00:15:07Look, remember when we first started dealing in university?
00:15:10We said that it was to pay our bills and to create our own opportunities.
00:15:13No, we said it was so we could smoke weed for free.
00:15:17True.
00:15:17But once we started making money, we said that it was to avoid having a desk job.
00:15:22Remember?
00:15:23You were going to go and travel and help save people and animals and shit because you feel
00:15:29guilty about your privilege.
00:15:30And I was going to make money off of people like you.
00:15:33But I love dealing.
00:15:35I'm good at it.
00:15:38Then find a new opportunity.
00:15:41This is our time.
00:15:43Dealing weed is like the mullet.
00:15:45It's dead and it's not coming back.
00:15:47It was a fun ride while it lasted, partner.
00:15:49But now, it's time for some tough love.
00:15:52You're leaving.
00:15:53You're welcome, dad.
00:15:54You're welcome.
00:15:56So
00:16:26Sorry I'm late.
00:16:56I'm busy at the store.
00:16:57We open on Monday and I'm still filling positions in.
00:17:01Can't believe I got an interview so fast.
00:17:04Indeed.
00:17:05So you are?
00:17:11Anne Banting?
00:17:13The microphone's not necessary.
00:17:16Anne Banting, yes.
00:17:19The software we use put you at the top of our list.
00:17:23Wow.
00:17:23So, um, have you been working for the government long?
00:17:32Thank you for asking.
00:17:33Yes, I worked with the LCBO part-time when I was in high school, and then I moved up to full-time.
00:17:38In 1927, the government of Ontario created the LCBO, selling all the liquor you need to let down your guard after a hard day, being accepting of everyone and apologizing for everything.
00:17:50And then I worked with the beer store.
00:17:54The government of Ontario helped create the beer store, allowing all of us to live up to the Canadian stereotypes of loving plaid, hockey, and knowing some guy named Doug.
00:18:03And then I saw an opportunity to move up with CDCBO.
00:18:08But we know Canada is a country full of diverse people and vices, and we're proud to announce the CDCBO, the Cannabis Distribution and Control Board of Ontario.
00:18:19You heard it correctly, Ontario.
00:18:21Your government is sparking up.
00:18:23Full stop.
00:18:24Such different products.
00:18:30I can hear you fine.
00:18:35I mean, are they?
00:18:37It's all the same poison.
00:18:38I believe Snoop Dogg said it best when he said,
00:18:41It makes me feel the way I need to feel.
00:18:46I think he was just talking about cannabis, but that's one person's opinion, truthfully.
00:18:52And he is a multi-layered artist.
00:18:55Genius, in my mind.
00:18:58All right.
00:18:59So, tell me about yourself.
00:19:03Well, I'm very excited about this opportunity.
00:19:05I think it's been a very long time coming.
00:19:07And what makes you a unique candidate?
00:19:10Do you hate Bob Marley?
00:19:15Well, I have a degree in economics, and I've had my own business since university.
00:19:21Oh, that's impressive.
00:19:23Yeah, I've been my own boss since then.
00:19:25And it's been a lot of hard work keeping my clients happy with all the choice out there.
00:19:30So, why do you want to work with the CDC...
00:19:32CDCDO?
00:19:34See, sometimes it's appropriate.
00:19:36Well, like you, I thought I'd get in on the ground floor of a company that's going to grow very quickly.
00:19:43I mean, 40 stores in Ontario isn't enough to match the demand.
00:19:46Right.
00:19:47So, it says here that you are a weed dealer.
00:19:57Cannabis.
00:19:58Yeah.
00:19:58That works.
00:20:00That's the time that the microphone works.
00:20:02I think it's the perfect fit, really.
00:20:04I'm well-versed in every strain.
00:20:06I know the effects of each one.
00:20:08And I persevere to find the right strain for each of my customers.
00:20:11And I think if given the chance, I could do the same for yours.
00:20:14Yeah, stop talking.
00:20:16You are aware that this is a government position, right?
00:20:20Yeah.
00:20:21And you're applying for a position as an admitted criminal.
00:20:25I feel like this is an admitted...
00:20:27Admitted criminal.
00:20:30See?
00:20:31It emph...
00:20:32I took a class on this.
00:20:36Took a...
00:20:37That's not...
00:20:38That's not you.
00:20:38Admitted criminal.
00:20:39Not after this weekend.
00:20:46Touche.
00:20:52Well, I can see why the software gave you a 99% match, that's for sure.
00:20:59Well, Em, if I move your application to the next phase, Ralph's going to flag it.
00:21:06Ralph?
00:21:07My boss.
00:21:08He's a dog person.
00:21:09Don't get me started.
00:21:11I'll take it off my application.
00:21:13And then you'll look like you're unemployed for ten years.
00:21:15That's not great.
00:21:16Yeah, but drug-free.
00:21:18Oh, fuck it.
00:21:25Welcome to CDCBO.
00:21:27You start 8 a.m. Monday.
00:21:28And if anyone asks, you've been living in a commune in B.C. for ten years, all right?
00:21:35Yeah.
00:21:37Takes your breath away, doesn't it?
00:21:38Mm-hmm.
00:21:39Mm-hmm.
00:21:40Mm-hmm.
00:21:41Tie.
00:21:42Yeah.
00:21:43Nothing but a G thing.
00:21:49Fuck.
00:22:00Fuck.
00:23:32Very funny.
00:23:34Hey, what do you think of that?
00:23:37Hey, my old work tie.
00:23:40I wish it was.
00:23:43Yours?
00:23:45Oh, that's good.
00:23:48Finally, putting that education to good use.
00:23:54Yeah, I guess so.
00:23:58It didn't last forever, could it?
00:23:59I really didn't think it would end like this.
00:24:06Well, you didn't choose an easy path.
00:24:10Or maybe you did.
00:24:12It needs more green.
00:24:14You sound like Mom.
00:24:15Hey, I'm on your side.
00:24:29Fuck it.
00:24:30I'm not working for the enemy.
00:24:35That's my girl.
00:24:37Let's hear it for the crazy one.
00:24:39Woo!
00:24:40Hey, do you think my hair will stay when we're fucking?
00:25:03Oh, I think so.
00:25:04You are a lifesaver, as always, girl.
00:25:13And, uh, do you have anything that'll help us out?
00:25:18This should put you both in the right mood.
00:25:20I don't need him to go limp and pass out.
00:25:23I need him to go all night.
00:25:28Yes, bitch!
00:25:29That is what I'm talking about.
00:25:31You always know how to hook a girl up.
00:25:33Not to interrupt.
00:25:34Um, weed doesn't actually make you go limp.
00:25:37Coke does.
00:25:40Okay, well, whatever.
00:25:44I tried.
00:25:46In a valiant effort.
00:25:47Okay, did you talk to Steve?
00:25:49He's upstairs.
00:25:51What is going on in here?
00:25:52What's with all the backpacks?
00:25:53Is this like a weed dealer convention?
00:25:55It's more like an employment fair.
00:25:58Thanks.
00:26:19Hello?
00:26:20Hello?
00:26:22Oh, sorry.
00:26:32Uh, is Steve here?
00:26:35No.
00:26:35Steve.
00:26:37Steve is downstairs playing the role he's paid to play.
00:26:41Sorry?
00:26:41Everybody wants to come to a club run by mobsters.
00:26:46So we give them one right at a central casting and they go home with a fun story.
00:26:50Guess who's coming back with friends next week.
00:26:57You're Beth's friend, Anne, right?
00:26:59Yeah.
00:27:01Yeah.
00:27:03Steve mentioned you'd be coming by.
00:27:05I like Beth.
00:27:07Gotta love Steve's optimism.
00:27:08He also mentioned you're looking for a new line of work.
00:27:19Yeah.
00:27:20I'm looking to expand my reach and, you know, navigate the new terrain.
00:27:28Governments always make the best gangsters.
00:27:30If I was bilingual, I'd be prime minister, right?
00:27:39One would think you'd find a more discreet way than a backpack to carry around your drugs.
00:27:45This isn't Degrassi.
00:27:46Did Steve mention my situation?
00:27:53My product?
00:27:55Have you ever dealt anything else?
00:27:58No.
00:28:00Weed is a good fit for my skill set.
00:28:05You're a purist.
00:28:07Exactly.
00:28:09We just developed a new app for weed.
00:28:12It's like Tinder.
00:28:14I'm so excited about it.
00:28:15We even have a loyalty program.
00:28:18Even with legalization, the government's not going to be able to keep up with demand,
00:28:22and they close at five.
00:28:25Times are changing.
00:28:27Mm-hmm.
00:28:28So why did you stick to dealing?
00:28:31You could have worked your way up.
00:28:34Made a lot more money distributing.
00:28:38I don't know.
00:28:39I guess I was good where I was.
00:28:45You know I like that you know your place.
00:28:48We can't all be CEOs.
00:28:52I'll give you a trial run.
00:28:55As a favor to Beth.
00:28:56Why me?
00:29:00I mean, I'm sure you have tons of candidates.
00:29:05Yeah, but they're all children.
00:29:08This is just a game for them.
00:29:11Dealing makes them cool, gets them away.
00:29:13They still expect everything from life.
00:29:15But you, well...
00:29:20Well, you're old enough to know better.
00:29:27I don't know if I can sell something I don't believe in.
00:29:31Oh.
00:29:32Well, we all have to believe in something.
00:29:35You're more than welcome to join the legions who still believe that working hard and being polite will get you ahead, but...
00:29:42I think you know otherwise.
00:29:45I'm not going to kill someone.
00:29:48That's not the skill set I'm hiring you for.
00:29:50You can leave your weed on the counter.
00:30:01Canadian maple is my favorite.
00:30:50I love you for this little love tonight.
00:30:54Ain't nothing wrong with it.
00:30:56Just on the side.
00:30:57And I'll feed your eyes to a one-night parent.
00:31:10Oh my God, Steve!
00:31:12I love it.
00:31:15I love it!
00:31:46There you are.
00:32:07Ventanilism fucking everything.
00:32:11It's not your fault.
00:32:13It's a risk everyone knows about.
00:32:15Everyone's a fucking adult in there.
00:32:17Yeah, except for me.
00:32:28Jesus.
00:32:28Do you think I like working in this shithole and getting up and going to my day job at nine?
00:32:37No.
00:32:38But I just do it because I need to save to open my own place.
00:32:42My mom cleaned washrooms to put a roof over our head.
00:32:45Dealing isn't hard, and cleaning toilets is.
00:32:48Yeah, but you can't kill anybody while doing it.
00:32:50Well, then you better start scrubbing because you cannot have it both ways.
00:32:53Dealing weed was different.
00:32:55You keep telling yourself that, but your friends or your clients or whatever you call them sold you out.
00:33:02Fuck you.
00:33:04No.
00:33:05Fuck you.
00:33:06My job, my reputation, and my fucking head is on the line because I did you a favor.
00:33:12So stop being so goddamn selfish and self-centered.
00:33:15Beth, my whole life has been turned upside down.
00:33:18I'm homeless.
00:33:20Literally.
00:33:20Holly, my shit is in a fucking playground.
00:33:23Yeah, and why is that so surprising?
00:33:25I mean, fuck.
00:33:25The writing has been on the wall for months.
00:33:28Maybe if you were a little less lazy, you would have done something about it.
00:33:31Like a dealer.
00:33:32I'm not fucking lazy.
00:33:34Sorry.
00:33:34Don't.
00:33:35You can't even follow the first rule of dealing.
00:33:38Don't use your product.
00:33:40Maybe then you would have seen your grand plan for the shit idea it was.
00:33:45Fuck you.
00:33:47I was fucking great at my job.
00:33:49And I tried to do anything to save it.
00:33:52And for the record, your boss up there, she has the same plan.
00:33:55I just don't have any money or power.
00:34:00You want to know another difference between you and everyone else, Anne?
00:34:03We know that no one gives a shit about us.
00:34:06So stop being so nice and polite and step the fuck up or get out of the fucking way
00:34:10because some of us are doing what needs doing.
00:34:19Will it be always like this?
00:34:32Always like this for you and me, my love.
00:34:46Will it be always like this for you and me, my love?
00:35:08Will it be always like this?
00:35:16Will it be always like this?
00:35:19I'm short.
00:35:45Well, that's disappointing.
00:35:48Look, I'll get you the money.
00:35:50No need.
00:35:52Beth covered for you.
00:35:55She did?
00:35:56Mm-hmm.
00:35:58Yeah, I see a lot of myself in her.
00:36:01That's why she's my top earner.
00:36:04She's very talented.
00:36:07Talent is merely a point of view applied by others.
00:36:12I look for dirt under the fingernails and give my respect accordingly.
00:36:16You've been around long enough to know that your dealing days are over.
00:36:28Normally, I look for a little more surety.
00:36:30But I think knowing that I can get to Beth will be enough.
00:36:44You should go.
00:36:45I don't know.
00:36:45I don't know.
00:37:02Freeze!

00:47:54careful
00:47:55whatever
00:48:16yeah
00:48:20so is now the time we spend sitting around talking about our feelings until we arrive
00:48:24until we arrive at some introspective enlightenment
00:48:27about our place in the universe?
00:48:35I'm sorry I took it out on you.
00:48:36It's on me.
00:48:40You picked a weird profession to have a conscience.
00:48:44How'd you get out?
00:48:47You're not the only one with friends in blue.
00:48:49I was with Valerie when they came in.
00:48:57She really likes you.
00:49:03So you're still thinking about opening your own place?
00:49:08I tried to get a bank loan,
00:49:10but the bank said I wasn't a good risk
00:49:11because I freelance, so...
00:49:13I said fuck it.
00:49:16I'll do it on my own.
00:49:19I'm putting it all away.
00:49:22I'm almost there, and then I shall be free.
00:49:26Beth, what about the people that you sell to?
00:49:29People die from that shit.
00:49:33And?
00:49:38I'm dealing at a club where bottle service starts at 1K.
00:49:43I'm working class,
00:49:44and the people there are only too happy to remind me of that.
00:49:49So fuck them.
00:49:50I'll get mine.
00:49:52How can you think that?
00:49:55How can you live with it?
00:50:00You said it.
00:50:03Money and power.
00:50:05They make the rules.
00:50:06No one gives a shit whether you make an honest living
00:50:10or care about your neighbor.
00:50:12It's gone.
00:50:13Anne.
00:50:16You went out with blue-collar jobs and plaid.
00:50:21She's really fucking dangerous.
00:50:22I know.
00:50:36I'll keep on her good side.
00:50:43For covering for me.
00:50:46You're gonna get out, right?
00:50:47It'll just take a little longer.
00:51:07You did almost kill someone on your first day.
00:51:11Wait.
00:51:12Almost?
00:51:13She survived, Florence Nightingale,
00:51:15so your conscience can remain clear.
00:51:18You are heartless.
00:51:20And you are working for the man.
00:51:22Like a chump.
00:51:23Fifteen dollars an hour?
00:51:25I don't want to talk about it.
00:51:25Really?
00:51:26Good.
00:51:27Because I can only handle one of your problems a day.
00:51:29The entry is 5165.
00:51:49You can stay with me.
00:51:50Okay.
00:51:59Okay, but only for four weeks.
00:52:03And then you're out on your ass.
00:52:17Let's fucking dance.
00:52:18Yeah.
00:52:19Let's get back to being mean.
00:52:28Because everyone I know says I'm not what I used to be.
00:52:38Well, I just want to get back to being mean.
00:52:42I just want to get back to being mean.
00:53:11I just want to get back to being mean.
00:53:12Oh, fuck.
00:53:13Oh, fuck.
00:53:14Oh, fuck.
00:53:15Oh, fuck.
00:53:21Come on.
00:53:25Give me your security.
00:53:26Brent!
00:53:31Brent!
00:53:34Brent, is that you coming?
00:53:36Yeah, asshole.
00:53:37It's me.
00:53:38Did you tell her I said hi?
00:53:39What is happening?
00:53:42I can't.
00:53:44I'm burning.
00:53:45Fuck.
00:53:48My heart's just...
00:53:50I'm having a heart attack.
00:53:52Okay.
00:53:53Heart attack.
00:53:54Okay.
00:53:54Hey, hey, hey.
00:53:55Let me feel you.
00:53:55Let me feel your forehead.
00:53:57He's not burning up.
00:53:59My head's...
00:53:59My brain is on fire.
00:54:00Did you use that weed app?
00:54:02Yeah.
00:54:03What the fuck did you swipe right on?
00:54:06Everything!
00:54:06Just get a cool towel and some water.
00:54:10Okay, Brent.
00:54:10You are having a panic attack.
00:54:12You just need to breathe.
00:54:14Okay?
00:54:16That's it.
00:54:17Deep breaths.
00:54:18Deep breaths.
00:54:19What are you doing?
00:54:23Just put it on the towel!
00:54:25He dropped you yesterday.
00:54:26I haven't been out with this asshole for months.
00:54:28Why the fuck are we helping this idiot?
00:54:30Because he called us.
00:54:33His dealer and his ex?
00:54:35You need friends, Brent.
00:54:38Put the towel on him!
00:54:39It doesn't even have a label on it.
00:54:44Probably sativa set off his anxiety.
00:54:47He's an indica smoker.
00:54:48Or it's fucking medical grade and some shitbag put oil in it.
00:54:52Kate, Brent.
00:54:53Did you take anything else?
00:54:55Coke?
00:54:56Pills?
00:54:57You limp dick bastard.
00:54:59I fuck like a stout.
00:55:01Oh, yeah?
00:55:01I think...
00:55:01You said that woman, you know, that other woman, the stripper, you thought had a heart of gold.
00:55:05She fucking meant nothing, okay?
00:55:06Nothing? Oh, yeah?
00:55:07Nothing? She meant nothing?
00:55:08What about those fucking pictures on your fucking ball?
00:55:10I'm fucking sorry!
00:55:11You're sorry?
00:55:12I'm fucking sorry!
00:55:13Focus! Focus, focus, focus.
00:55:15We're gonna focus on getting you back, okay?
00:55:18Okay.
00:55:18Okay.
00:55:19We're gonna stay here.
00:55:21We're gonna watch you.
00:55:22As long as it takes.
00:55:24If it gets any worse, we're gonna go to the hospital.
00:55:27No, fuck that.
00:55:28Fuck the hospital.
00:55:29Yeah, fuck the hospital.
00:55:30Fuck the hospital.
00:55:32He needs to feel the fucking pain.
00:55:33Okay, you fucker.
00:55:35You never cheat on your girl.
00:55:36Oh, you're fucking dark.
00:55:38Never!
00:55:39Beth!
00:55:40Beth!
00:55:41You're waterboarding him!
00:55:43Oh.
00:55:44My bad.
00:55:47Watch that breath.
00:55:50Now try to relax.
00:55:53There you go.
00:55:55Quiet, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good.
00:55:58What are you doing?
00:56:13What?
00:56:14You don't have any more weed and all I have is coke.
00:56:16I need to relax.
00:56:18No, no, no.
00:56:18Do not smoke that.
00:56:21I'm a woman.
00:56:21I can handle my shit.
00:56:25Okay, if you have a bad trip, I'm leaving because you guys deserve each other.
00:56:28Oh, no, don't leave.
00:56:29She'll kill me.
00:56:35Look at you.
00:56:39Yeah.
00:56:40It's kind of nice to have my old life back for a second.
00:56:43Have you guys fucked here?
00:56:54Oh, yeah.
00:56:56Oh, fuck, yeah.
00:56:59They are two of the country's former top cops.
00:57:18But how times have changed.
00:57:19The two former law enforcement officers have joined forces and formed a cannabis-based network.
00:57:26Next.
00:57:27Next.
00:57:28Next.
00:57:29Next.
00:57:32Next.
00:57:36Yes.
00:57:38Hi, I'd like to open a cannabis lab as a microcultivator.
00:57:42Do you have the relevant paperwork?
00:57:45No, I don't know where to start, so I was hoping that you could help.
00:57:49You'll need to fill out an initial request form.
00:57:52You need to include a business plan, including information on where the lab is to be located, preliminary plans.
00:57:58Do you have those forms?
00:57:59Hmm, we're committed to the environment.
00:58:02Everything can be found on our website.
00:58:06When I just have to print those forms out and then bring them back anyway?
00:58:11Starting a business is not for the faint of heart.
00:58:13Yeah, I know.
00:58:14I had one until you guys took it from me.
00:58:17We do have some help available.
00:58:19You just need to fill out a 1828-496-697-A.
00:58:27Then you can receive counseling on starting a business.
00:58:30Look, I'm a cannabis dealer, okay?
00:58:33That's my profession.
00:58:34And now that it's legal, shouldn't you guys be helping me with transitioning?
00:58:37I mean, I've heard about all these reprogramming and, you know, retraining opportunities.
00:58:43Where are those?
00:58:47Just to be clear, you're asking whether the government can help you transition from the illegal world to the legal one.
00:58:55Hey, you guys took my livelihood from me, okay?
00:58:59You owe me.
00:58:59I think you have to be on probation to access those programs.
00:59:09Have you ever gone to jail?
00:59:10Are you currently on probation?
00:59:12I'm not on probation, okay?
00:59:14Except for working at the CDCBO.
00:59:16Look, I pay taxes.
00:59:18Now?
00:59:19You guys work for me.
00:59:21Shouldn't the government be, you know, encouraging me?
00:59:24Small business is the key to Canada flourishing and women succeeding.
00:59:28And make Canada great again.
00:59:32Gary.
00:59:32Gary!
00:59:34Let's make a great together.
00:59:36Oh, it's already great.
00:59:38You better get started.
00:59:41How many dreams do you kill a day?
00:59:45Next.
00:59:49Right now, you may be wondering what benefits you get in exchange for your work in Ontario Civil Service.
00:59:56Well, there are many of them.
00:59:57And they're all outlined in your employees' information kit.
01:00:04Oh, I hate people.
01:00:06I keep telling them I'm not high.
01:00:08I'm not going to work when I'm high.
01:00:09What are you, crazy?
01:00:11Nice flair.
01:00:13Thanks.
01:00:14You, uh, you're leaving us so soon?
01:00:17What?
01:00:18What?
01:00:19No, I love it here.
01:00:20I'm so grateful that you took me on, Judy.
01:00:25Yeah, said with as much conviction as a 15-year-old with fake ID.
01:00:29Look, I know structure is hard for you, but you've got a future here if you want it.
01:00:35I don't know, maybe.
01:00:36I mean, I can't even with this.
01:00:39All right, let me have a look.
01:00:39Scooch.
01:00:40Out you go.
01:00:41I've worked with the government all my life.
01:00:45But this stuff, it's insane, right?
01:00:47Jesus.
01:00:47The only thing they don't ask for is an STD test.
01:00:50I wouldn't give them one either.
01:00:52Well, this is why the big companies always win.
01:00:54You can't compete.
01:00:55They bring it with all this crap.
01:00:57No offense.
01:00:57I wasn't listening, because I was thinking, we should partner.
01:01:05Yeah, I could get a grant.
01:01:07A new skills grant for government employees.
01:01:12We're also women.
01:01:14We are also women.
01:01:16Yeah, I'd forgotten about that.
01:01:18Rookie mistake.
01:01:20Okay, because there's a fund for women who run small businesses as well.
01:01:24What else could we get?
01:01:25Well, food and beverage, women in business, leveraging England, market fund, get an arts grant.
01:01:31The arts?
01:01:32Yeah, we could pay some sort of poor artist, preferably from the LGBTQ community.
01:01:37Oh, my gosh, it would be great if they were an immigrant or had some sort of indigenous roots.
01:01:41That would be fantastic.
01:01:42They'll do all our commercials.
01:01:44And forestry?
01:01:45Yeah, we'll just plant a bunch of trees around the weed.
01:01:50And you've never been arrested, right?
01:01:51No.
01:01:52You've spent a night in jail, probably.
01:01:55Nada.
01:01:56No, surprising.
01:01:57Too bad.
01:01:58That's a lot of money left on the table.
01:02:01I know a cop.
01:02:02Maybe he could help.
01:02:03No, that would flag it.
01:02:04And then by the time you get out, you wouldn't be eligible.
01:02:09Okay, Gary, city hall guy, he said that I'd have to make an initial payment.
01:02:15He's not wrong.
01:02:16It's $30,000.
01:02:17Holy shit.
01:02:18Yeah.
01:02:18And how long is the application process?
01:02:20Not long, right?
01:02:21I mean, what, six months?
01:02:22Half a year, approximately?
01:02:24Would the CDCBO even sell our product?
01:02:26Yeah, probably.
01:02:27They would consider it and then, you know, turn it down because they'll deal with larger
01:02:30growers.
01:02:31Yeah, like shoppers.
01:02:32Yeah.
01:02:33And then we wouldn't get points, right?
01:02:35Oh, I want my points.
01:02:36Yeah, you're right.
01:02:39Yeah, you may be in the future, right?
01:02:42No, because by that time the price of weed will have gone down because all the big companies
01:02:46will be making it cheaper.
01:02:47Yeah.
01:02:48I mean, that's how they get you.
01:02:50They offer these grants and you can't access them.
01:02:52What about at the CDCBO?
01:02:53I mean, with my expertise, there must be an opportunity.
01:02:56I'm going to stop you there because there absolutely is not.
01:02:58It's all about seniority.
01:02:59Like Ralph and his stupid jerk-faced dog.
01:03:02He's an alcoholic, not the dog, my boss.
01:03:04But he steals stuff from the company all the time.
01:03:08And does he get shown the door?
01:03:10No, he doesn't.
01:03:11In fact, they're offering him a treatment plan that you and I as taxpayers pay for.
01:03:15It's the worst.
01:03:17I'm fucked.
01:03:18Yeah.
01:03:18Well, I mean, that would actually be good because then you get 12 months paid maternity
01:03:21leave.
01:03:22I mean, that's not, that's a joke, but not maternity leave because that's not funny.
01:03:26Motherhood is absolutely something to be taken seriously.
01:03:33I gotta go.
01:03:52Hey, doll.
01:03:54Want a hit?
01:03:55No.
01:03:56I'm good.
01:04:00How about a brownie?
01:04:01I got a brownie.
01:04:05The pharmacist said I should try oils, but what the fuck?
01:04:10What am I, a naughty five-year-old?
01:04:13It's the smoke.
01:04:16I'm trying, but their stuff is shit.
01:04:19Told you.
01:04:20Really?
01:04:22I'm dying, and you're gonna say I told you so.
01:04:26Look what I brought.
01:04:30Beautiful, isn't it?
01:04:33Do you want to talk about it?
01:04:35It's a glass penis.
01:04:36What more is there to say?
01:04:38You know what I mean.
01:04:43Three months, no hope.
01:04:45Lots of pain.
01:04:48You want to know what the doc said?
01:04:49You've had a good run.
01:04:55Wow.
01:04:57Really?
01:04:58I almost kneed him in the balls.
01:05:01That's the whole point of life, asshole.
01:05:05Doesn't mean I have to be cool about it, because I'm passing third base.
01:05:08I love you.
01:05:22I'm not gonna lie in some drug-induced coma at a home somewhere.
01:05:29Fuck God's waiting room.
01:05:33I'm gonna hit the road with my penis and leave this world the same way I came in, kicking and screaming.
01:05:41That's what I'm gonna do.
01:05:43How can I help you?
01:05:48I'm gonna need your best stuff to control the pain.
01:05:53You help my son get through it with dignity.
01:05:59God.
01:06:00God.
01:06:02Oh.
01:06:03Oh.
01:06:04Oh.
01:06:05Oh.
01:06:07Oh, Lord.
01:06:09I'm sorry.
01:06:10I'm sorry.
01:06:11I'm sorry.
01:06:11I'm sorry.
01:06:15Dad, you don't have to worry about me.
01:06:17Okay?
01:06:18Okay.
01:06:18Okay.
01:06:18Okay.
01:06:23I wish I was more like you than him.
01:06:30You are.
01:06:33You just have to start using your product.
01:06:36I do.
01:06:38The other stuff appear.
01:06:46I brought something.
01:06:53It's really strong.
01:06:56Ooh, I like the sound of that.
01:06:58This is exciting.
01:06:59You can be my guinea pig.
01:07:03It's really, really strong.
01:07:06Oh.
01:07:08A thing of beauty.
01:07:11Oh, she's mighty.
01:07:13Do not be fooled.
01:07:15We hope.
01:07:15I hate Justin.
01:07:21He used to be hot.
01:07:22Now he not.
01:07:24Do you ever feel like you've disappointed everyone in your life?
01:07:28Oh, shit.
01:07:29Next family guilt?
01:07:30It's too early for this.
01:07:31No, no, no, no.
01:07:32It's not that.
01:07:34I don't know.
01:07:35Maybe it is, but...
01:07:37I'm just trying to find my way without saying I'm sorry or kill someone.
01:07:42I feel like those are my only two choices.
01:07:45That's a great Canadian motto.
01:07:47Say sorry or kill someone.
01:07:50Okay.
01:07:50Let me break it down for you.
01:07:55Okay.
01:07:56I'm about to blow your mind.
01:07:59See this nice little picket fence?
01:08:01This is everyone else.
01:08:03This is you.
01:08:05I prefer marmalade.
01:08:06What do you like, 80?
01:08:07Anyway, look at you.
01:08:08You're different.
01:08:09You're weird.
01:08:10Last week you were a criminal.
01:08:11Well, I technically still am.
01:08:14Great.
01:08:15Even better.
01:08:16Do you think these nice, gentle pieces of bread are looking at you thinking,
01:08:21Wow, that's cool.
01:08:23Huh.
01:08:23Look, nice red top.
01:08:25She's so different, everybody.
01:08:26Look at her.
01:08:27No, they're not.
01:08:28They're wondering why you think you're so special and why you're ruining the flow of their beautiful, nice picket fence.
01:08:35That's what they want.
01:08:40They want you to be just like them.
01:08:42Nice and polite.
01:08:44Hmm.
01:08:44Hmm.
01:08:46You should run for office.
01:08:49Oh, I'm way ahead of you.
01:08:50I'm already learning how to probably move on, see?
01:08:54Adila, I need your help.
01:08:56And I don't want some bullshit excuse this time.
01:09:01Ooh.
01:09:02Game on.
01:09:03Yes, I will have another.
01:09:10Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
01:09:11Catch a finger by the toe.
01:09:13If you, I'm taking you regardless.
01:09:15Oh.
01:09:17Oh.
01:09:18Still good.
01:09:21Mm-hmm.
01:09:22That's the way it goes.
01:09:25Hey.
01:09:29Look.
01:09:29Mm-hmm.
01:09:29Judy, I can't work here anymore.
01:09:32It's not me.
01:09:35Well, it is me.
01:09:37That's the problem.
01:09:38If I don't get out of here, I'm just gonna...
01:09:39You're gonna end up becoming me.
01:09:41That's right?
01:09:42No.
01:09:42No, that's not what I meant.
01:09:48You know what?
01:09:48I've hired a lot of people in my day.
01:09:53And you know what the biggest change is?
01:09:55What?
01:09:56No one respects the climb.
01:09:58The climb?
01:09:59The climb.
01:10:00The time it takes to accomplish something.
01:10:02To get somewhere.
01:10:04Everyone just wants free timbits.
01:10:06I've been climbing for ten years.
01:10:13Fighting to change perceptions,
01:10:15fighting to change laws,
01:10:16all while trying not to get arrested.
01:10:18I helped make this happen.
01:10:21And now they don't want my expertise
01:10:22to help them build what they just took from me.
01:10:26Make a choice.
01:10:28Hmm?
01:10:29Let the pieces fall where they may,
01:10:30but just make a choice.
01:10:31Okay.
01:10:31You never wanted to leave when we came here.
01:10:45Just one more slide,
01:10:46and that's it, Dad.
01:10:48Just one more.
01:10:50That usually got me about six months.
01:10:52Yeah.
01:10:56I ran out of time, man.
01:10:58I did the right thing.
01:10:59I just ran out of runway.
01:11:05I know, Dad.
01:11:07I know.
01:11:15For folks watching across the country,
01:11:25the original model from the previous government
01:11:27was that there would be provincially run stores.
01:11:30Very quickly, in your government's mandate,
01:11:32you said, you know what,
01:11:33we're not going to do that.
01:11:33We're in favor of a private model.
01:11:35We're not in the business of selling cannabis.
01:11:38There you are.
01:11:39Okay, Judy,
01:11:40can I please pick up some shifts?
01:11:41Okay, I just need to start saving and...
01:11:44What?
01:11:44Oh, my God.
01:11:45They're shutting us down.
01:11:49I'm sorry?
01:11:50Yeah.
01:11:50New government, new ideas.
01:11:52Like right now?
01:11:53Yeah, the government's holding on to distribution
01:11:55and online sales,
01:11:56and all the stores are going private.
01:11:59What's going to happen to you?
01:12:01Oh, Ralph, being the dog that he is,
01:12:02is trying to push me out,
01:12:03offering me a severance package
01:12:04for my loyal service.
01:12:07He is?
01:12:07Yeah.
01:12:08I'm not taking it, though.
01:12:09No, I'm going to be like a hangover to him
01:12:11that never goes away.
01:12:13How much is the package?
01:12:14Oh, hello.
01:12:19Are we on probation yet?
01:12:23Is a circus in town?
01:12:25No, what we are is two women
01:12:26who have an interest in forestry,
01:12:28the arts, and technology.
01:12:30I believe our whole application is in order.
01:12:33Oh, and you know what you forgot to do
01:12:34is give Anne a 4D4603 form.
01:12:37Not to worry.
01:12:38I went home and printed it out,
01:12:39attached it to our deposit,
01:12:40so there shouldn't be any kind of delay
01:12:42in our application.
01:12:43So, better catch that before it falls.
01:12:48She owns you.
01:13:02So long, sucker.
01:13:13Fixing between two and three.
01:13:15Fuck Mondays.
01:13:16Yes, fuck Mondays.
01:13:18Words to live for it.
01:13:23Thank you, Adila, for letting us use your lab.
01:13:25Oh, my pleasure.
01:13:27I'm happy to help,
01:13:28especially since you cleared my paper trail.
01:13:30Oh.
01:13:31You know, you're like the CDCBO Oracle.
01:13:34Oh, well, I mean,
01:13:35you just have to know the system, right?
01:13:37Or be the system.
01:13:38Or be the system.
01:13:40Unfortunately,
01:13:41nobody can be told what the Matrix is.
01:13:43You have to see it for yourself.
01:13:45Ah, respect.
01:13:47Right?
01:13:48Words.
01:13:50All right.
01:13:53I'm not even going to finish that.
01:13:55Oh, you know what?
01:13:56I'll hide out with you.
01:13:57And I'll see you tomorrow, partner.
01:13:59We're ready for this pitch.
01:14:00Yeah, we are.
01:14:01Hey, do you like cats?
01:14:05No.
01:14:07That sound, doesn't that make you just...
01:14:08Nope.
01:14:09Your heart skip a beat?
01:14:28Oh, dear.
01:14:29Wow, I slowed down off of a slurp.
01:14:33This shit is strong.
01:14:34It is strong.
01:14:35Get these off me, please.
01:14:40Okay?
01:14:41Come on, there you go.
01:14:42Oh, wow.
01:14:43Oh.
01:14:44It's like you've done that before.
01:14:47You're glowing.
01:14:52So are you.
01:14:59So, I stopped by the evidence locker, and I got you something.
01:15:15She's beautiful.
01:15:17Right.
01:15:18Her name is Lauren.
01:15:23You're welcome.
01:15:25I thought that flowers would be too eager.
01:15:29Really?
01:15:32Oh, that stuff is fantastic.
01:15:36What do you call it?
01:15:37It's my new strain.
01:15:39It's called find-away or fade-away.
01:15:41Okay.
01:15:42My girlfriend.
01:15:44The cannabis grower.
01:15:46Medical cannabis?
01:15:48Buy prescription only.
01:15:50All right.
01:15:53The pharmaceutical industry.
01:15:55Now you really are a gangster.
01:15:59A gangster that is not your girlfriend.
01:16:02Okay?
01:16:03You take too much credit.
01:16:06The game's beginning.
01:16:07The hours are long, and the work often dull.
01:16:17But the life has many rewards.
01:16:20You're respected as a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
01:16:24Well, there you have it.
01:16:32A quick look at the Ontario government and you.
01:16:35Obviously, in so short a time, we couldn't cover all there is to know about the working relationship between you and the government.
01:16:43There are still many other things to consider.
01:16:45Your employee information kit, your immediate supervisor, and personnel staff will provide you with any additional information that you desire.
01:16:55And we hope that this film has helped you better understand your role in Ontario's civil service.
01:17:01I've been to a Snoop Dogg concert, too.
01:17:04Yeah.
01:17:04It's one of the best nights of my life.
01:17:07I had chosen an outfit that was obviously an attention grabber.
01:17:12Because on the way in, a lot of people were like, hey, do you shop at The Gap?
01:17:16Which makes me think, spiffy.
01:17:19And my aunt, ironically, was wearing the same thing, khaki's blue shirt.
01:17:24It was just something that we, I don't know, it's not, it was, I mean, it wasn't even by choice, just by chance.
01:17:30And we sat next to these two gentlemen that were cool.
01:17:36They were cool.
01:17:36They were like, you know, NWA.
01:17:40That's what I, like, that's them.
01:17:43And, you know, I always travel with chocolates, so that's something that is just in my nature, to offer chocolate to these guys.
01:17:51And they were like, no man, I'm cool.
01:17:54And I was like, you are cool, because that's more Smarties for me.
01:17:57That's very cool.
01:17:58And at one point they said, oh, hip-hop's dead.
01:18:02And I was like, oh, cool.
01:18:05That's cool.
01:18:06And we'll be right back.
