00:00:30The immutable sense of despair is only due to your mind's work.
00:00:42It's the way our brains process time and space.
00:00:46You see, now we could be in our childhood home with our grandmother baking a cake.
00:00:51A moment later, we could be experiencing a sense of failure.
00:00:56An exam, perhaps, that we fear we're not going to pass.
00:01:00And all of this is happening right here, right now, in the present, where nothing is really transpiring.
00:01:07Meanwhile, your body experiences all the nostalgia and all the fears germinating from thoughts of past and future.
00:01:22Hi, ladies. Beautiful day today.
00:01:23And the guys at the office just sent me over the first batch of our awesome Silk Dorm Hydration Cream SPF 50+.
00:01:29Today's the perfect day to try it on.
00:01:31I've just put some on my chest. It's so smooth and refreshing.
00:01:34Don't forget, the launch is in less than two weeks.
00:01:37So get your pre-orders in now.
00:01:47No, Ma. Tonight, we have people over, okay?
00:01:49You can swing by before seven.
00:01:51Otherwise, let's do something tomorrow.
00:01:52No. Yeah.
00:01:53And tell Pa not to be lazy, okay?
00:01:56No, let me...
00:01:57Yeah, let me talk to him.
00:01:58Put him on.
00:02:01Hey!
00:02:02Pa!
00:02:03Come va?
00:02:03Pasado el mal...
00:02:06Um, uh, detest...
00:02:09We're doing brunch tomorrow morning, okay?
00:02:11I forgot we're having Andrew over tonight.
00:02:14Yeah.
00:02:15Mm-hmm.
00:02:16Yeah, sure, I'll ask her, but dinner shouldn't be a problem.
00:02:19Mm-hmm.
00:02:25Yeah.
00:02:26No worries at all.
00:02:28Cool.
00:02:29Bye.
00:02:30Hey, Dennis.
00:02:32Did you find that lamb shank?
00:02:33I was thinking maybe we can do that recipe he told me about last time.
00:02:37You know, the lamb tagine or whatever the fuck?
00:02:40Andrew would love it.
00:02:41Something exotic, you know?
00:02:43Mediterranean.
00:02:44Sure.
00:02:45Not too much animal, please.
00:02:46Caroline and I are doing that challenge, remember?
00:02:49Let's do salad for you two, then.
00:02:52So you're gonna have lamb shank and some other refined dishes while we have salad?
00:02:56Good.
00:02:57Can we talk?
00:02:58Your mother dropped this off?
00:03:00What's this?
00:03:03Mindy Masala.
00:03:06She never disappoints.
00:03:08You can have that instead of the salad.
00:03:11Okay.
00:03:12Come with me.
00:03:13Let's go.
00:03:27Can you tell me why you called her?
00:03:29Uh, who?
00:03:30Her.
00:03:32It's Andrew and Caroline, for God's sake.
00:03:34We're not hosting a Christmas dinner.
00:03:35It's casual.
00:03:37And we can't afford to hire a maid every time we have people over.
00:03:40Uh, last time we had them over here was six months ago.
00:03:42And you know what they're like, okay?
00:03:44The lifestyle and all.
00:03:45We gotta keep up.
00:03:45Of course I do.
00:03:46That's why we stopped hanging out with them.
00:03:48When I have the trade hiring a new PR for a bottle of whoever the fuck cares,
00:03:52that's when I go for coffee.
00:03:52She offered Annie, and we haven't hired her in over three weeks.
00:03:57Come on.
00:03:59So we're doing charity now?
00:04:01I've been waiting for a philanthropist to come along.
00:04:03I didn't know I had one in the house.
00:04:05No, look, listen.
00:04:06Listen, it'll be fine, okay?
00:04:11Of course it'll be fine.
00:04:13Don't go inspiration on me over a fucking dinner.
00:04:15Leave it to your crowd, tribe, whatever you call it.
00:04:18I mean your sunscreen launch?
00:04:20Look, you put a lot of work into this, and it's gonna be great.
00:04:23You're gonna be great.
00:04:24Steve, I don't snap about the maid because of other reasons, but because of the maid herself.
00:04:31I know we need to keep up this facade, this lifestyle in the eyes of the guests in residence,
00:04:35but can't we at least try to do it on the cheap?
00:04:38That's all I'm asking.
00:04:42Now, please get out of my face.
00:04:44I need to call my mom.
00:04:50Thank you, Daniels.
00:04:50Okay, so what's a good substitute for eggs, then?
00:04:55Cornmeal?
00:04:56How about disappointment?
00:04:59It's a challenge, and just for a month.
00:05:01To be honest, I already feel better, right?
00:05:03Oh, I feel great.
00:05:05Andrew, how's the wine?
00:05:06Excellent, my friend.
00:05:08Great choice.
00:05:09Bordeaux.
00:05:112018, it's a classic.
00:05:12Nobody cares.
00:05:13You know, summer extended way into September that year, giving us this excellent vintage...
00:05:17This man always so obsessed with his wine.
00:05:19Yes, I am.
00:05:20Just look at the color.
00:05:21It's fucking beautiful.
00:05:22You know, we implemented a plant-based diet for our employees.
00:05:26We tried to encourage the use of standing desks, gym breaks.
00:05:29We built a fucking pool for these guys, but you know, programmers, they're in Arcadia 18 hours a day.
00:05:33I don't know.
00:05:33Stop it.
00:05:34When they disconnect, they barely remember their names.
00:05:37I can't even sit still for more than 30 minutes straight.
00:05:40You know, in the end, diet is a secret to long and healthy life.
00:05:44Oh, Jesus Christ.
00:05:46My nono would smoke like a chimney, right?
00:05:49And he ate chicken, like, every day, and he lived to, like, what, 104, I think?
00:05:53You want to know why?
00:05:55Olive oil.
00:05:56Oh, again, with your nono and his olive oil.
00:05:59He's Italian.
00:06:00Being obsessed with food comes with the territory.
00:06:02Thank you, Caroline.
00:06:04If I were Swiss, I'd eat chocolate and check the time.
00:06:09Anise, lamb was excellent, by the way.
00:06:13Did you guys hear the story about cadavers not decomposing as quickly because of all the preservatives we take in?
00:06:18Jesus Christ.
00:06:19Oh, baby.
00:06:20I wouldn't trade mac and cheese for fast decay on my deathbed.
00:06:22You know, if we can afford a healthy plant-based diet, we should go that route.
00:06:28I mean, our parents didn't have the options we have today.
00:06:31I mean, you know what?
00:06:32I agree.
00:06:33My father had steaks when he moved here.
00:06:36Before that, it was only noodles and cabbage.
00:06:38Okay.
00:06:39There's no point discussing serious topics with you guys.
00:06:45What the hell was that, Sam?
00:06:46It's been the coyote again.
00:06:48You guys have coyotes here?
00:06:50Dennis, could you please check outside?
00:06:53I will.
00:06:55We haven't had a coyote.
00:07:01So what was it?
00:07:21Nothing.
00:07:21It must have been that coyote.
00:07:24It's fine.
00:07:25I added a little something extra for the cab in the late night.
00:07:33Thank you again for dinner.
00:07:34It was fantastic.
00:07:35Oh, no.
00:07:37Let me know if you need anything else.
00:07:38Sure will.
00:07:39You have a good night, okay?
00:07:40Good night.
00:07:41Bye.
00:07:41Bye, Annika.

00:08:39He is a movie
00:08:42What should we do let's wait and see
00:08:48Do we have any valuables outside?
00:08:51Um, only the prototype to my sunscreen
00:08:54Worst case scenario he'll steal the formula and become a millionaire before I do
00:08:59Let's see what happens if we pretend we didn't notice him
00:09:05After staring at him for five minutes straight?
00:09:09Yeah, like, oh sorry it must have been a shadow
00:09:12We must have got confused, just see what he does
00:09:15Okay, let's pretend I'm brushing my hair
00:09:20And we're having a smart conversation
00:09:22A smart conversation?
00:09:24That's a staple in this house
00:09:26Shit, he's gone
00:09:28Okay, um, I'll make sure the alarm's on
00:09:35Okay, check the doors and windows
00:09:36We need to send a warning out to the police station
00:09:38Hi, we just saw someone trespassing
00:09:45On our property
00:09:46Nope, he disappeared right after
00:09:49Yeah, are any of you patrolling Eagle Heights tonight?
00:09:53Just want to give you a heads up
00:09:54We're at 4624 Carmine Street
00:09:56Okay, thanks
00:09:59It's happened before
00:10:24You know, ex-residents that just can't afford this kind of lifestyle anymore
00:10:28And I guess they miss it
00:10:29I don't know
00:10:30Hi ma'am
00:10:31I was just telling your husband
00:10:33That that man there was circling your house
00:10:36Intending on breaking in
00:10:37Ex-residents, you know
00:10:40Sometimes they just want to get back in with the rich and the famous
00:10:42Oh my god
00:11:04That gate is a piece of shit
00:11:15How do you do it?
00:11:18Anybody can force open that little wooden gate, Annika
00:11:20We need to reinforce it
00:11:21Maybe add a lock instead of a latch
00:11:23No
00:11:24How did he find this house?
00:11:28The agents were very clear
00:11:29Ex-residents wouldn't have a way back to the property
00:11:32It was in our contract
00:11:33It's their fault this happened
00:11:35You know what?
00:11:36It might be an old tenant
00:11:37From a different house
00:11:38Go figure
00:11:38What the hell?
00:11:42What the fuck is that?
00:12:02It won't stop
00:12:04Is this a new app you installed?
00:12:06Why is it on the TV?
00:12:08I have no idea, Annika
00:12:09Annie
00:12:22There's one in the bathroom as well
00:12:25Anything reflective
00:12:37It's not on the wall
00:12:39It's on the mirror
00:12:40The mirror
00:12:41You know the mirror?
00:12:43The mirror
00:12:43That reflects your fucking image
00:12:46You know the
00:12:46Look, I'm sorry
00:12:50I didn't mean to swear
00:12:51Okay
00:12:51Yes, I apologize
00:12:54He hung up on me just because I swore
00:12:58Can you believe these people?
00:13:00What do you think an electrician would know
00:13:02About a countdown on a mirror?
00:13:03You know, who am I supposed to call here?
00:13:05A watchmaker?
00:13:06The agent
00:13:06And what would the agent know?
00:13:08It's happening in the house
00:13:09And you have to call them anyway about the break-in
00:13:11Attempted break-in
00:13:12Attempted break-in
00:13:13Whatever
00:13:13They should know what's going on
00:13:16Hi, my name is Steve Loretto
00:13:24Account number 768542
00:13:26I'm calling regarding a couple of issues
00:13:28We had recently
00:13:30One of which we're still experiencing
00:13:32Yeah
00:13:34I'm on hold
00:13:36All of them
00:13:45From the bathrooms
00:13:46To my wife's vanity
00:13:48It's everywhere
00:13:49Okay, so we wait and see
00:13:51Can we schedule an inspection anyway?
00:13:55Just in case some problem emerges?
00:13:58Okay
00:13:59Thanks
00:14:00What do they say?
00:14:03To wait until the end of the countdown
00:14:05And see if something happens
00:14:07I don't know
00:14:08Do they know what it could be?
00:14:10No, he said
00:14:10It might be an issue
00:14:12With how the mainframe
00:14:13How it connects
00:14:14To the lenses
00:14:15Basically tech lingo
00:14:16You didn't understand
00:14:18Not a fucking word
00:14:19Okay
00:14:19Let's wait and see what happens
00:14:35And see if it matters
00:14:36To the lenses
00:14:51To the lenses
00:14:51Why am I so sleepy?
00:15:20Me too.
00:15:21What the hell is going on, Steve?
00:15:24I don't know, but I feel like taking a nap.
00:15:28It's the middle of the day.
00:15:30It's the perfect time for a nap.
00:15:32What about the countdown?
00:15:35What if something happens while we're asleep?
00:15:38I'll try to stay awake, okay?
00:15:39I'll wake you if something happens.
00:15:42It's almost over.
00:15:46I think I can do it.
00:15:50I think I can do it.
00:15:53I'll be right back.
00:15:55I'll be right back.
00:15:57I think I can do it.
00:18:29Mr. Rossetti, Ms. Patel, welcome to the center.
00:18:35Please deposit your pods and lenses over there and follow me.
00:18:38Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:18:59Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:19:09Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:19:19Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:19:30Please take a seat.
00:19:55Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:05Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:15Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:17Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:21Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:32Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:42Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:44Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:20:45You must admit it's utterly suspicious that individuals, regardless of race, nurture, or location, would at one point or another question their own milieu.
00:20:54Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:21:05Dr. Lin is waiting for you.
00:21:05To this day, it's still a fascinating mystery to me.
00:21:09Don't you agree?
00:21:13Sorry, but I have no clue what you're talking about.
00:21:16You've been expelled from the platform.
00:21:18What platform?
00:21:20You see that little wristband there?
00:21:22It's rebuilding your memory structure as we speak.
00:21:25In the next four to eight hours,
00:21:27you will slowly start recollecting the past year of your life.
00:21:31The feeling would be one of a dream.
00:21:33A fairly detailed and a very long one.
00:21:37A year?
00:21:38That's how long you've been in the vacuum
00:21:40since your Arcadia permit got accepted.
00:21:42But unfortunately, the system has rejected your synaptic linkage,
00:21:46consequently evicting you from the platform.
00:21:49So my job here today is to assess your memory
00:21:53to ensure that nothing has been compromised by the ejection.
00:21:59Name?
00:22:03It's Steve.
00:22:08It says, Raymo. Raymo Rosetti.
00:22:12Name?
00:22:16It's Meera Patel.
00:22:18Who's Annika?
00:22:19Annika's the name of your avatar.
00:22:21I just remembered a pool. I was talking to a camera.
00:22:25And I was in a bikini all the time for no reason at all.
00:22:30Their features, whether you're pleased with them or not,
00:22:32are a consequence of your initial requests.
00:22:36Steve.
00:22:37Motivational speaker.
00:22:39Wine lover.
00:22:40English speaker.
00:22:42Italian heritage, but no Italian accent.
00:22:45That's very specific.
00:22:47Annika.
00:22:49Successful lifestyle entrepreneur.
00:22:52Internet prime influencer.
00:22:54Changing the world for the better.
00:22:56It's a classic.
00:22:58I was about to launch my sunscreen.
00:23:00I remember.
00:23:01Yeah.
00:23:02And I just hit two million followers.
00:23:05This is good.
00:23:06This is progress.
00:23:08Let's expand on the bakery and the aromatherapy store, shall we?
00:23:12The pre-Arcadia time frame.
00:23:15Bakery?
00:23:17That was a very long time ago.
00:23:19Yes.
00:23:20Right before Arcadia.
00:23:21Just over a year.
00:23:23Yes.
00:23:25I moved to Canada.
00:23:26I was working at a pizzeria, then a winery.
00:23:30The winery where we met.
00:23:32Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:23:34You ordered the Pinot Grigio.
00:23:36And you were wearing the dress with the...
00:23:38Okay, let's not dwell on irrelevant minutiae.
00:23:40Let's continue with the big milestones.
00:23:44How I end up working at the balcony?
00:23:46It's not for me to tell.
00:23:48And why was I working at the aromatherapy store?
00:23:51What about the other places?
00:23:52The mining office, the tech lab?
00:23:55The work permit.
00:23:57Yes, the work permit.
00:23:59It was expiring.
00:24:00We had to leave the country.
00:24:01And?
00:24:02And leave each other, going back home.
00:24:04So?
00:24:05So we decided to, um...
00:24:08Sign up to...
00:24:09Arcadia.
00:24:11Excellent, excellent.
00:24:13Well done.
00:24:16But why?
00:24:17Well, the immigration office considers your application to Arcadia
00:24:20as an extension of your ordinary work permit,
00:24:23as to allow you to stay...
00:24:24No, but why did we get disconnected?
00:24:26Yeah.
00:24:27Yeah, we signed, uh...
00:24:29Yeah, yeah, we signed for the platform two years.
00:24:32I remember.
00:24:35Yours is a unique case,
00:24:37which explains my presence here.
00:24:39Nobody connects to Arcadia Canada from Canada.
00:24:44We were willing to undertake your experiment,
00:24:47but as we have discussed during your profiling,
00:24:50the procedure is highly unstable.
00:24:52Arcadia is meant to be experienced solely by individuals living abroad.
00:24:57It's a way for suitable immigrants to indulge in the ideal life they'd have
00:25:02if they'd eventually decide to move here.
00:25:04Millions of people from around the world connect to Arcadia as we speak.
00:25:08And how many people are being disconnected as we speak?
00:25:11None.
00:25:12Unlike you two, all of our residents live outside of Canada.
00:25:17If you're already here, why would you want to live your ideal life in Canada
00:25:22via a virtual platform when you can live it in the real world?
00:25:25Wow, you mean just working ten hours every single day at a bakery?
00:25:29Yeah, and there's no pool in my aromatherapy memories.
00:25:32Certain things take time and character.
00:25:36A tadpole has to grow legs to become a frog.
00:25:39Okay, so how do we get back Ian?
00:25:42Well, if that is your ambition,
00:25:45you're more than welcome to submit a second set of paperwork together with the fee.
00:25:49Perhaps on the second attempt, your stay in the vacuum would last longer.
00:25:53We can't guarantee, but we are open to explore that option.
00:25:58This is no way to run a business.
00:26:00And what are we supposed to do? Pay another submission fee?
00:26:03And what was that? $10,000?
00:26:05Hey, it's just another day at the bakery.
00:26:07Your work permit extension has been reactivated effective immediately.
00:26:12You will be able to work in the country for a total of 21 days.
00:26:16After which you will be expected to leave Canada.
00:26:18Unless, of course, a new work permit or an Arcadia permit is issued.
00:26:22No, this is bullshit!
00:26:24What are we supposed to do?
00:26:26To find a new job and earn $10,000 in three weeks?
00:26:29I'm sorry if this is not to your satisfaction.
00:26:32But there's nothing we can do.
00:26:35Nurse Mary will take you to the property room where you can retrieve your belongings.
00:26:39A driver will take you home.
00:26:41Good luck.
00:26:42And thank you for choosing Arcadia.
00:26:43Good luck.
00:26:44And thank you for choosing Arcadia.
00:26:48For the next day.
00:26:49Take care.
00:26:50Take care.
00:26:51I'm so welcome.
00:26:54I'm sorry.
00:26:55It's a thing to have.
00:26:56In a minute.
00:26:57It's a place to be able to walk to the next day.
00:27:00The next day I'm going to walk.
00:32:40You were so young.
00:32:41When was this?
00:32:422028.
00:32:44Before I moved here.
00:32:46Back when the channel was still making money.
00:32:48Do you remember this?
00:32:50One of you?
00:32:51One of you?
00:32:52One of your prototypes?
00:32:53One of your prototypes?
00:32:54Yeah.
00:32:55Nail polish for pets.
00:32:56And what's the difference with nail polish for people?
00:32:58Exactly.
00:32:59The customer's point.
00:33:00I missed your face.
00:33:07I missed your face.
00:33:08I missed your face too.
00:33:10I missed your face too.
00:33:12I didn't miss this.
00:33:14I didn't miss this.
00:33:15I didn't miss this.
00:33:16A basement filled with nostalgia of a past I don't want to remember.
00:33:21They're looking for an assisted motivator in a company downtown.
00:33:26Do they offer sponsorships for a work permit?
00:33:28I don't know.
00:33:30I hope so.
00:33:31I found a networking event for Friday night.
00:33:34I can meet some companies face to face and see if they're looking for someone.
00:33:38That's good.
00:33:39Okay.
00:33:40Help me with these boxes.
00:33:42Let's clean up this place.
00:33:44I can't concentrate on this mess.
00:33:58Rimo.
00:34:01Rimo.
00:34:02Ramo.
00:34:03How do you pronounce it?
00:34:05It's Remo in Italian.
00:34:07But you can call me Rimo like many people.
00:34:11Right.
00:34:12So, Mr. Rossini?
00:34:13Rossetti.
00:34:14Uh-huh.
00:34:16You're already aware of our services?
00:34:19We're helping people to achieve their best selves through the power of words.
00:34:24And what power that is!
00:34:26When a child gets hurt and cries, where does he go?
00:34:30He runs to his mother.
00:34:32Is he looking for a hug?
00:34:34Sure.
00:34:35Is he looking for someone to wipe away his tears?
00:34:38Well, certainly.
00:34:39But the thing he craves to get, what he needs more than anything else in the whole world,
00:34:47are words of consolation.
00:34:50And that's what we do.
00:34:51We give words of consolation.
00:34:53To children.
00:34:54Children.
00:34:55Why children?
00:34:57Like in your example.
00:34:59We're helping people when they're at the bottom rung, Mr. Rossini.
00:35:02What does that mean?
00:35:03When they've gone off the deep end.
00:35:05At their nadire.
00:35:06Oh, of course.
00:35:07Their nadire.
00:35:08Of course.
00:35:09What's a good Italian example?
00:35:11Before they get...
00:35:13Before they get...
00:35:14The last offer they can't refuse.
00:35:17The last pasta before they go...
00:35:19Mamma mia!
00:35:20That's a good one, right?
00:35:23Well, I can see from your resume that you were a motivational speaker in Italy.
00:35:30Yes.
00:35:31And that was an Italian, right?
00:35:32Yes.
00:35:33Common internet, I suppose.
00:35:37I had enough of a fan base to sign for the internet prime.
00:35:41But then, you know, the economy went down, the euro failing, the views went down.
00:35:47Lots of people trading in their Ferraris for Vespas, I guess.
00:35:51So, my only option was to move away to...
00:35:54Hey, do you know the Italian who went to Malta?
00:35:57No.
00:35:58The meme.
00:36:01So, I go into my room in a hotel.
00:36:03There's no sheets on my bed.
00:36:05So, I call the manager and I say, I need a sheet.
00:36:08He says, go to the toilet.
00:36:10I say, I need a sheet on my bed.
00:36:12He says, you better not have sheets on the bed, you son of a bitch.
00:36:15That was a good one, right?
00:36:21So good.
00:36:22So good.
00:36:23So good.
00:36:45How did it go?
00:36:59Same old, same old?
00:37:02Mhm.
00:37:03The networking event has a hundred dollar entry fee.
00:37:07Fifty if you knew someone to refer you.
00:37:10And unless you're in management and I don't know it, I'm not going anywhere.
00:37:17So we're left with only one option then?
00:37:20Being deported is another.
00:37:22Sounds better than what you have in mind.
00:37:35Nothing has changed since you left.
00:37:36Only orders got bigger and labor is a real pain to find these days.
00:37:40Well, look, look at this, look at this.
00:37:44So you see, it's too demanding.
00:37:45People leave after two days.
00:37:47So, I spoke with the immigration officer.
00:37:49If you guys are committed to the job, can handle the work,
00:37:53I can talk to my manager and we can start on those papers right away.
00:37:56What do you think?
00:37:57Gino, that would be really helpful.
00:37:59Our permit expires in three weeks, so we can start anytime.
00:38:04If your manager's okay with this.
00:38:06I'm the chef here.
00:38:07I decide when you guys start.
00:38:08And when you guys start is whenever you want.
00:38:11We publish them usually full.
00:38:14Oron our minimizes.
00:38:18So, we, the south, do you read this?
00:38:20We read it specifically.
00:38:22So, I know we, the south, do youshopically ill there.
00:38:23Si sa, noi del sud facciamo discussione in posta, siamo allergici alle strisce, di restare in fila non ci riesce neanche ai funerali.
00:38:35Si sa, noi del sud leggiamo libri a stento, si sa, noi del sud collezioniamo caffè a scrocco, imbattibili nel lancio di parole dai balconi, siamo tesserati al club delle Comari.
00:38:53Se prende spazio l'indifferenza, resta il silenzio di un condominio anonimo, porta pazienza al perbenismo, io preferisco il rumore della verità.
00:39:10Isnt' it today a great day?
00:39:24I got my espresso, the first batch is in the oven, and look at this, look at this, a new order came in, 2,000 cakes by the end of the month.
00:39:35Isn't that exciting? Isn't that exciting? Exciting!
00:39:39I don't think I can do this.
00:39:55We have no choice.
00:39:57I'm going to call the Roma Therapistore, I trade inhaling patchouli the kneading dough any day of the week.
00:40:02Gino, ciao.
00:40:15So, I have great news for you guys today.
00:40:20I know I said two to three weeks, but I spoke to my manager, and because of the fairly urgent situation and the order that came in two days ago,
00:40:27he said to go ahead with your contracts.
00:40:30Yay! Exciting, right?
00:40:32That's, that's good.
00:40:33Okay, so, only caveat, a small proviso really, is that we can't really hire you guys both full-time right away.
00:40:42We have to go for a part-time agreement, which I guess will leave you time for other activities, right?
00:40:47Okay, I need your signature here.
00:40:49$14 an hour? What the fuck are we going to do with $14 an hour? And part-time?
00:41:03Oh, my brain is fried. And those Italian songs, Jesus Christ, 10 hours of that crap?
00:41:09Hey, no, you just don't understand the lyrics. They're actually very beautiful.
00:41:13Are we really talking about the songs right now? I don't care about the songs.
00:41:17Can you imagine yourself doing this shit every single day? Until when? Two years of minimum wage?
00:41:22No, we just work until we save enough to join back Arcadia. Maybe six, seven months.
00:41:29With $14 an hour?
00:41:33Listen, we just need to look at what you call it, the, uh, the golden line.
00:41:41The silver lining.
00:41:42Thanks to Gino, we have a way to renew our work permit. Stay in the country.
00:41:46And to answer your question, no, I don't see myself feeling pastries for two years.
00:41:52I see myself making videos, helping people with their lives.
00:41:58Why don't you do it then?
00:42:00Do what?
00:42:01We spent a year in a simulation doing what we always wanted. Why can't we just make it happen here?
00:42:07Didn't we try that before, signing to Arcadia?
00:42:09Yes, but now it's different. We lived our vision. We know what it looks like and how to reach it.
00:42:14Let's just make it happen again.
00:42:16Well, you think we should just do what we used to do in Arcadia?
00:42:19Yes, and I'll make a product and market the shit out of it.
00:42:22I have half the eloquence and ten times the accent of my avatar.
00:42:28Maybe there are other Italians like you, stuck in shitty situations, trying to find some consolation, some motivation.
00:42:36Here it is. Remo and his daily inspiration pills.
00:42:46You feel you've been abandoned.
00:42:50Or you feel you've been left alone.
00:42:54No, abandoning is too dramatic.
00:42:57Leaving the place you call home can be a grudging...
00:43:04A grudging...
00:43:06Leaving the place...
00:43:07Leaving the place you call home can be a...
00:43:10A dressing feeling.
00:43:12One, you're loud.
00:43:13Two, you sound like a pharmaceutical commercial.
00:43:15Three, the word you're looking for is distressing.
00:43:17Distressing.
00:43:18Distressing.
00:43:19Distress.
00:43:20Grazie.
00:43:21And what does this, uh, how, how, how does it feel to, uh, uh, where does this feeling come from?
00:43:40Coming from where?
00:43:42Uh, maybe you just feel lonely.
00:43:49Maybe you, you just feel lonely.
00:43:54Maybe you just feel lonely.
00:44:12Maybe you don't feel lonely.
00:44:13Maybe you just feel lonely.
00:44:27It's...
00:44:28Maybe you just feel lonely.
00:44:30Maybe that you should dontudấtciate a 58%,
00:44:32Maybe you should help manage the food form or it...
00:44:36Hey girls, it's just a short video to thank you all for the overwhelming support for my Talk A ά carbon mapping hydration cream, SPF50+.
00:44:40I can't believe I finally did it, and I'm so happy that I can share this moment with all of you.
00:44:45As you know, I've been...
00:44:46So you don't remember posting a video like this?
00:44:49No, never. And she's talking about feedback comments.
00:44:52Look here. Oh my God, this cream is so phenomenal. Makes my skin so smooth.
00:44:56It's a fake comment.
00:44:57I can spend as much time as I want under the sun thanks to Silk Derm hydration cream.
00:45:01It's a fake comment too.
00:45:02Who cares? That's not the point. The point is, that's me. That's Annika.
00:45:07Who sent you this video?
00:45:08Caroline.
00:45:09Caroline?
00:45:10Caroline?
00:45:11What, you mean Andrew's wife?
00:45:13Yes, but again, aren't they supposed to be avatars?
00:45:15This, this is strange.
00:45:17Thank you for finally catching on.
00:45:19Videos like these shouldn't be able to leave Internet Prime.
00:45:23You try and reply the sender, Caroline?
00:45:27No, I just received it.
00:45:29If they have videos of Annika, maybe they have videos of Steve too.
00:45:33Okay, maybe.
00:45:39There were 20 minutes of the zatillas at the time, but they have time to go.
00:45:41There was a lot of the answer to the chat.
00:45:43There was a lot of the answer to the chat.
00:45:45There's a lot of the chat.
00:45:46I'm sorry.
00:45:47I know there's a lot of the chat to see.
00:45:50There's a lot of the chat box.
00:45:51I know there's a lot of the chat box.
00:46:23Hi, this is Meera.
00:46:42Look at you, aren't you a darling?
00:46:49I'm Karim, but you can call me Caroline.
00:46:53Nice to meet you.
00:46:54Yes, I know.
00:46:55Let's go.
00:47:00It is all a big bag of BS, like my mother used to say.
00:47:04Bullshit with a capital B. Arcadia has been experiencing glitches even before we signed
00:47:08up.
00:47:09And every time it happens, they come up with some excuse.
00:47:13Oh, you were raised in it before.
00:47:15Oh, your word permit is in conflict with some class up my father's ass.
00:47:20They're just experiencing an overload of users and their servers they can't keep up.
00:47:24That's all.
00:47:25Eight months we spent inside.
00:47:28Eight glorious months.
00:47:30And then, boom.
00:47:31Back to reality.
00:47:32Reason?
00:47:33An issue with Ying's name on the passport.
00:47:37Do you miss it?
00:47:38The vacuum?
00:47:39Hmm.
00:47:40I was having a blast as Caroline.
00:47:41Always dressed to impress.
00:47:42Prima donat with a bone.
00:47:43I own $3,000 pajamas and slippers that could pay for my rent.
00:47:44And now, I work at the retail store.
00:47:46Can you believe it?
00:47:47Me, Caroline Labelle, stylist, trendsetter, reduced to a mere clerk, strangely replacing it.
00:48:11What about Andrew Chang?
00:48:14How's he holding up?
00:48:15He got a job as a programmer.
00:48:17We got our work permit through him this time.
00:48:19He wants to open his own company one day just like he did in Arcadia.
00:48:23But the transfer back to this hit him pretty hard.
00:48:28The result is the video I sent you.
00:48:31He hacked into Arcadia servers in search for the life we used to live.
00:48:40Did he find more videos of Anika? What about Steve?
00:48:45The video I sent you is one of nine others that we dug up from your page.
00:48:51Anika's page.
00:48:52She's been posting for the last two weeks as if nothing has ever happened.
00:48:56And Steve, that cold drink of water, he's still going strong as well.
00:49:00Did he find more videos of him?
00:49:02The tepid response to your actions is only the surface of a conversation you're having with yourself first.
00:49:17And you're quick to cast judgment on others before digging inside the dynamics your ego is conceiving.
00:49:23Your ego is conceiving.
00:49:25You see, all too often...
00:49:26This guy's good.
00:49:29He's good, but he's not you.
00:49:34You sure these aren't pieces that got lost when they reconstructed our memories?
00:49:38No, this video is from two days ago.
00:49:41Everything I found is content produced by your avatar after you left Arcadia.
00:49:45Did you try to communicate with them?
00:49:47With whom?
00:49:48The avatars. Did you DM them?
00:49:50Have you ever responded to a single message your fans sent you?
00:49:53But we're not fans, we're...
00:49:55Okay, I see your point.
00:49:57So, who's behind this?
00:50:00Who's impersonating us?
00:50:02There's no us.
00:50:04We are not them anymore.
00:50:05Arcadia uses avatars as characters in a video game.
00:50:08Once you're out, another person takes over.
00:50:11Which makes total sense.
00:50:12Why waste all of the progress a character has made in Arcadia?
00:50:15Just put someone else in and see how they perform.
00:50:18What? You're saying there's just some new person just living Steve's life?
00:50:20Consider Steve like a horse.
00:50:22I'm not a horse.
00:50:23You're not Steve.
00:50:24Look, once a rider is replaced, another person takes over and they see how far this one goes.
00:50:30Okay, but these guys started better off.
00:50:34I've already built everything for him.
00:50:36And what about my followers? How we know this new Steve is giving good advice?
00:50:40How we know he's a good person?
00:50:42What makes you think you didn't start better off either?
00:50:45Because I built it.
00:50:48No.
00:50:54Do you remember Steve's penis?
00:50:57What's that have to do with this?
00:50:59It's a legit question.
00:51:00Do you remember going to the washroom?
00:51:01Or the first script you ever wrote.
00:51:03Or the first video you ever recorded.
00:51:05The first comments your fans sent you.
00:51:08You don't?
00:51:09Like a role-playing game, they give you a backstory.
00:51:12You just customize the features.
00:51:13Steve was me.
00:51:16Certain things he said.
00:51:19His love of good wine, soccer, it's me.
00:51:22Sure.
00:51:23You were in the driver's seat, but everything else was already created for your own pleasure.
00:51:34You weren't a successful motivator, Remo.
00:51:37You were just impersonating one.
00:51:38It's like a chimney every day.
00:51:42You want to know why?
00:51:44Like an olive oil.
00:51:45Oh!
00:51:46No, that's the secret.
00:51:47Come come.
00:51:57He's Italian.
00:51:58Being obsessed with food comes with the territory.
00:52:08Like you.
00:52:09Do you have any novo Tiffanyак?
00:52:11No.
00:52:13Who did you wear the dopo?
00:52:15The月 was a big, too.
00:52:16If you'd like you.
00:52:17Just sit down here.
00:52:18Come.
00:52:20I like you.
00:52:23Like you.
00:52:25Ensure, if you love your fate, you'll get a little.
00:52:27If you don't realize you'll be verybijey.
00:52:29Let your children have��centhilthhzeniu.
00:52:31He can spend some days to pass.
00:52:33Yuuhna, baby.
00:52:34The day my father passed, my mother made sure no one saw her crying.
00:53:02She bathed him, clothed him and performed the funeral service without a hint of sadness on her face.
00:53:09The week afterwards, she refused to get up from bed.
00:53:13I'd seen her tired before, but this was different.
00:53:16This was the agony of losing the man she spent 45 years with.
00:53:21Sometimes, she'd regain her sharpness and think of a future for me, of a lawyer, of an eye surgeon.
00:53:29Others? She just stared at an empty corner for hours.
00:53:34Despite her presence, she died of loneliness.
00:53:39I fled India to flee this pain.
00:53:42To find a new family and a new community.
00:53:45But the only family I have is you.
00:53:48Are we setting ourselves up to walk the same path, Remo?
00:54:00You know, my brother was right.
00:54:02India is my Arcadia.
00:54:04I know its customs, its needs.
00:54:07And it'll be easier for me, just like Italy would be for you.
00:54:11Nothing is left in Italy for me.
00:54:14And even if we go back to our countries, that would mean living apart.
00:54:18What? Forever?
00:54:19We thought we could change the world, that we were going to do something.
00:54:25But we can't, we won't.
00:54:27Mira, we spent one year in a video game.
00:54:31A video game that we thought would lead to a better life.
00:54:37They fooled us.
00:54:40And I'm not going anywhere without answers.
00:55:08Mr. Rossetti, Ms. Patel, my name is Eleanor.
00:55:11I was in charge of your file when you were in the vacuum.
00:55:13Please, walk with me.
00:55:17So, let me rephrase your concern, Mr. Rossetti.
00:55:21Just to make sure I understand.
00:55:23You say you've received links to new videos of your Arcadia character
00:55:28and that you never made these videos, is that correct?
00:55:31Yes.
00:55:32Why is he still active if I'm here?
00:55:35Steve's my character.
00:55:37And the penis.
00:55:39Yes.
00:55:40The penis thing.
00:55:42The penis thing.
00:55:44Why don't I remember Steve's penis, huh?
00:55:46In other times I showered or peed or...
00:55:50I see.
00:55:52It's called induced amnesia.
00:55:55When your memory is reconstructed, the algorithm in your bracelet chooses certain memories over others.
00:56:04If it were to flood your brain with the entire repertoire of all the thoughts and recollections of the entire year of life, you'd be sent into an instant case of shock.
00:56:14And in some cases, extreme cases, people have been known to experience irreversible coma.
00:56:19A rare but possible outcome.
00:56:23So, we use an algorithm to infuse only those memories that will help you make sense of your time in Arcadia.
00:56:33Leaving behind all the meaningless activities such as showering and brushing your teeth and yes, even sex.
00:56:42Okay, but why is he still active?
00:56:45Those videos, whether new or old, are simply those memories your bracelet did not retrieve for you to remember.
00:56:53So, I did launch my son Steve then?
00:56:56Will I ever be able to access those memories?
00:56:59Oh, if you ever want to return to Arcadia, your account will be fully reinstated and you will be Steve again, complete with the entire repertoire of your memories.
00:57:10But until then, please, tell your friend or whoever it was that gave you those videos to stop hacking into the system.
00:57:22There's only one way to be a part of Arcadia, and that is to be worthy of it.
00:57:28Good day, Mr. Rossetti, Ms. Patel.
00:57:52It's her, a hundred percent.
00:58:02So, why does she look like Donny's?
00:58:04Maybe they used her as a model for the virtual Donny's?
00:58:08Or maybe she was in Arcadia too, an ex-resident like us.
00:58:14But why look like yourself in a virtual world and be what, a maid?
00:58:18Yeah, who's that?
00:58:19Yeah, who's that?
00:58:20Meera, guys, they found us.
00:58:21They caught Ying.
00:58:22We got trapped.
00:58:23We're getting deported.
00:58:24We have to leave the country by midnight tonight.
00:58:25I don't know what's going to happen, but I just wanted to say, I don't know what's going to happen.
00:58:26Take care out there.
00:58:27It was lovely knowing you.
00:58:28Shit.
00:58:29Why look like yourself in a virtual world, and be what, a maid?
00:58:35Who's that?
00:58:40Mira, guys, they found us. They caught Ying. We got tracked. We're getting deported.
00:58:45We have to leave the country by midnight tonight.
00:58:47I don't know what's going to happen, but I just wanted to say, take care out there.
00:58:51It was lovely knowing you.
00:58:55Shit.
00:58:56I knew we had to be careful with those people.
00:58:59What? Which people? Why don't we be careful about?
00:59:01Are you clueless? You ratted them out.
00:59:03Ratted them out. What does this mean?
00:59:05You told the lady from Arcadia about Jin and his hacking.
00:59:07Yeah, but someone like Jing would be careful to hide, is what you call it.
00:59:10GST, IP, GPS, whatever.
00:59:15And what? What are you doing?
00:59:21Oh, shit.
00:59:22Oh, they'll know if you break it.
00:59:26Hey, don't use too much olive oil.
00:59:41Hey, how much to get to Waterfront Station?
00:59:43Around 25, ma'am.
00:59:44Sorry, we don't have that kind of money.
00:59:46What?
00:59:49Now it's time to rent a car.
00:59:51We can't take a cab to chase Dennis.
00:59:53How much longer are we going to wait? Why?
00:59:54We're waiting for him.
00:59:55Why?
00:59:56I just had a thought.
00:59:57What's that?
00:59:58What if somebody...
00:59:59We've been here for two hours.
01:00:00Yeah.
01:00:01What if somebody is watching us?
01:00:02Watching her.
01:00:03Well, it is kind of strange that we're what?
01:00:04Just sitting, waiting in the car?
01:00:05People are like, oh, why are these people sitting in the car?
01:00:06Yeah.
01:00:07So, just be normal now.
01:00:08They probably think we're going to what?
01:00:09Steal something.
01:00:10Hey, there she is.
01:00:11Okay, okay.
01:00:12Okay.
01:00:13Okay, what do we do?
01:00:14What if we wait for her to what?
01:00:15No way.
01:00:16Wait for her to get around so she doesn't see us.
01:00:18And then we go.
01:00:19No way.
01:00:20Wait for her to get around so she doesn't see us.
01:00:21And then we go.
01:00:22No, wait for it.
01:00:23Wait for it.
01:00:24Okay.
01:00:25Okay, go.
01:00:26Here we are.
01:00:27Here we are.
01:00:28What are you doing?
01:00:29Ah, you know what?
01:00:30Sorry.
01:00:31Ah, here we are.
01:00:32Here we are.
01:00:33Today is the day we find you.
01:00:35Okay.
01:00:36Okay.
01:00:37Here we are.
01:00:38Okay.
01:00:39Okay, go.
01:00:40Here we are.
01:00:41Why is she going so slow?
01:00:42Look at this.
01:00:43No.
01:00:44She's going the slowest speed possible.
01:00:45It's good.
01:00:46Yeah, but why?
01:00:47It's strange.
01:00:48Maybe she wants us to follow, hmm?
01:00:49Hmm.
01:00:50Maybe this is part of her game.
01:00:51You don't think she'll get suspicious if we follow this closely?
01:00:55Okay, she's not going to find us.
01:00:57She's...
01:00:58She's not going to find us.
01:01:00She's...
01:01:00She's...
01:01:01She's...
01:01:02She's...
01:01:03She's following her.
01:01:04You don't think she'll, uh, get suspicious if we follow this closer?
01:01:09Okay, she's not going to find us.
01:01:10She's, uh, she's following...
01:01:11Can you stop with the commentary? It's making me nervous.
01:01:14This is kind of a lame car, Chase.
01:01:17Couldn't she have turned there, like, four times?
01:01:18What is this?
01:01:19She's acting very strange.
01:01:22Did you signal?
01:01:23Uh, no.
01:01:24Can you stop? I told you, stop with the commentary!
01:01:26She's not going to get suspicious if you don't...
01:01:28That's her, yeah.
01:01:29But I have to stop if there's a red light.
01:01:30Yeah, yeah, of course. I'm saying don't get too close,
01:01:31because she can see us. Look, we can see her.
01:01:33She doesn't... I am being careful.
01:01:34Okay, but now you're kind of far.
01:01:36What if someone hops and we lose her?
01:01:38Okay, she's turning. She's turning.
01:01:39Okay, yes, I know.
01:01:40You have to signal.
01:01:41No, she's not going. Look, it's red.
01:01:42Well, she was going.
01:01:43Yeah, but he told me to leave space.
01:01:45I can't see the light.
01:01:47You know, no stranger. We are just normal people.
01:01:51Oh, my God.
01:01:52Okay, okay, okay, she's turning. See?
01:01:55Signal, yeah.
01:01:55Yes.
01:01:56Oh, my God.
01:01:57Okay, go, go, go, go, go, go.
01:01:58Okay, okay, okay, okay.
01:01:59I'm coming. I'm going, I'm going.
01:02:02Yeah, she's coming.
01:02:03I'm going, I'm going, I'm going.
01:02:33I'm coming.
01:02:37Rema, is that...
01:02:40It's our house.
01:02:42How is that possible?
01:02:45Maybe it's just a model, or...
01:02:48It's identical.
01:02:50Should we knock at the door?
01:02:52Let's go from the back.
01:02:53I don't want them to see us, whoever they are.
01:02:55Can you open the latch?
01:03:06Someone put a lock on you.
01:03:08A lock?
01:03:09Wouldn't the right mind put a lock on a...
01:03:25What the hell?
01:03:37Where are we?
01:03:38They're waking up.
01:03:39Don't get too close, okay?
01:03:41Hey!
01:03:44Hi.
01:03:47You guys okay?
01:03:50What the hell is going on here?
01:03:52What are you doing here?
01:03:53What are you doing here?
01:03:54Who are you?
01:03:57You're...
01:03:58You're me.
01:03:59You're Annika.
01:04:01How do you know my name?
01:04:04How does she know my name?
01:04:05Were you guys trying to break in?
01:04:06What's happening?
01:04:06It's our house.
01:04:08You put a lock on the gate.
01:04:10I had to, man.
01:04:11That latch was shit.
01:04:12Stop being so polite with them.
01:04:13Were you trying to hurt us?
01:04:15Hurting you?
01:04:16Your psycho maid knocked us out.
01:04:17Yeah, yeah.
01:04:17She assaulted us.
01:04:19Whoa, it was a personal defense.
01:04:21She thought you were thieves.
01:04:22Look at you.
01:04:22Who fucking cares?
01:04:23Why does this bitch know my name?
01:04:24Why are you asking me, Annika?
01:04:25Don't call me bitch.
01:04:26We know both your names.
01:04:27You're Steve the motivational guy
01:04:29and you're Annika the sunscreen seller.
01:04:31Sunscreen seller.
01:04:32It's very diminishing.
01:04:34They're fans, Annie.
01:04:36We are you.
01:04:37You are us.
01:04:39You're supposed to be in Arcadia right now.
01:04:43What the fuck are you talking about?
01:04:46Arcadia.
01:04:46Oh, I see.
01:04:52They are...
01:04:53Residents.
01:04:54This house has more comings and goings than a goddamn brothel.
01:04:58We have double copies of all a resident's keys, in case something like this happens.
01:05:02Something like what happens, Doctor?
01:05:04Did you have something to do with this?
01:05:06Are we inside Arcadia right now?
01:05:07There's a lot of questions to answer, Doctor.
01:05:09We have an agreement.
01:05:11We're not supposed to meet our residents.
01:05:13300 Spartans weren't supposed to win Thermopylae either.
01:05:16Oh, Jesus.
01:05:18You're correct, Mr. Loretto.
01:05:20The contract you signed with one of our agents specifically stated that we will put every effort
01:05:23into ensuring no contact between you and your ex-residents.
01:05:28However, these two are of a different kind.
01:05:30We are of a different kind.
01:05:36The kind that built an empire from nothing.
01:05:39I own this house, right, Doctor?
01:05:41That's my fucking show, by the way.
01:05:42Cut him down.
01:05:42Pop down.
01:05:43Who do you think is the brain that's out of a silk-to-opotic institution?
01:05:45This girl right here.
01:05:47What are you talking about?
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:48Good.
01:05:49Good.
01:05:49Good.
01:05:49Good.
01:05:49Good.
01:05:49Good.
01:05:50Good.
01:05:50Good.
01:05:51Good.
01:05:51Good.
01:05:52Good.
01:05:52Good.
01:05:53Good.
01:05:54Good.
01:05:54Good.
01:05:55Good.
01:05:56Good.
01:05:57Good.
01:05:58Good.
01:05:59Good.
01:06:00Good.
01:06:30Ruptown
01:06:46Yo girl!
01:06:47Get off, girl!
01:06:48Go look, Max!
01:06:48Look what she did on my face.
01:06:51I'm gonna sue you, you bitch!
01:06:52Bitch fool!
01:07:00Mr. Rossetti, Ms. Patel, I understand your confusion and I apologize if the ambiguity
01:07:09of the situation has led to any hardship.
01:07:11I will try my utmost to be clear with you from now on.
01:07:16You have never lived in this house.
01:07:21What?
01:07:23We get thousands of requests every year from foreigners who wish to sign up to Arcadia.
01:07:29Europeans, Asians, Africans, Americans, all connect to Arcadia from their own country
01:07:36to get a taste of what it would be like to live here.
01:07:41Our mission, in truth, is to motivate them to reach for a better life,
01:07:48to see what this world has to offer and strive to achieve it outside of the platform,
01:07:55possibly in their own country, to inspire them to see the beauty despite the challenges.
01:08:04But we were here. I sat in these chairs. I swam in this pool.
01:08:12It's lens technology. Mr. and Mrs. Loretto have contact lenses permanently implanted in their eyes.
01:08:20You had lenses too during your stay in the vacuum.
01:08:23Mr. and Mrs. Loretto are what we call landlords,
01:08:27who rent out their lens spaces to individuals, residents,
01:08:31who wish to experience what it feels like to live this lifestyle.
01:08:39Mira, if you recall, during your profiling with us, you spoke of cultural differences.
01:08:49You said people here thought you were too aggressive in your approach
01:08:53and that your personality doesn't suit this country.
01:08:58You felt alone and misunderstood.
01:09:02So you wanted to join Arcadia to be someone who didn't have these obstacles.
01:09:07Someone with a trusted network of people around her.
01:09:11And most importantly, a family that supported her.
01:09:16And Ramo, you wanted to be a motivational speaker, an inspiration for others.
01:09:24But how could you succeed in a country where you don't even speak the language?
01:09:31To succeed in the art of the rhetoric, constructing grammar in a language
01:09:37so different than the one that you grew up with.
01:09:41How could you be an inspiration to others
01:09:44when they make fun of your gestures and the way you speak?
01:09:48So we ran our program through the pool of landlords,
01:09:52subscribed to Arcadia,
01:09:54and we found the perfect couple.
01:09:57First generation Canadians with only the immigrant background
01:10:01inherited from their families and none of the disadvantages.
01:10:09So what you're saying is I never created self-determination?
01:10:13You were virtually connected to Annika,
01:10:18seeing her life through her lenses,
01:10:20a connection which you could stop at any time
01:10:22by pressing a button on her watch.
01:10:24She could share with you the most glamorous moments,
01:10:28and none of the fights, fears, and the financial stress.
01:10:34Fights, I... I don't remember fights.
01:10:39Believe me, my dear, fights in this house are as common as cheap and mine.
01:10:43Aw, don't inflate the situation to make it more dramatic.
01:10:45He almost bankrupted us twice. We're still recovering from it.
01:10:48But who cares? Let's just have another drink, right?
01:10:51You know what? I don't hear you complaining about the pool, though, right?
01:10:53That's okay.
01:10:54Arcadia paid for half our mortgage. If it was up to you,
01:10:56we'd be living under a bridge with no money,
01:10:58but still a mate to serve you.
01:11:00What about the two business loans you took out?
01:11:02That didn't impact their finances, all right?
01:11:03We're not going to get into that right now, Steve, okay?
01:11:05Not a teeny tiny bit.
01:11:06Look at my face!
01:11:07But it serves you! It's okay!
01:11:08It serves me!
01:11:09You bought a bottle of Chateau Le Pen once.
01:11:12That bottle was $2,000.
01:11:15That was an excellent wine. I remember that. It was a French wine.
01:11:20I know I should be a little more generous towards their Italian heritage,
01:11:23but my friends have quite the delicate palate.
01:11:27And you gotta respect that.
01:11:29Your friends have a delicate palate.
01:11:35My friends don't have a delicate palate.
01:11:39The few I have would be horrified at me drinking a $2,000 wine.
01:11:50Because here, a bottle of Chateau Le Pen is two months of rent,
01:11:56if you live with your partner.
01:11:58One if you live in a basement.
01:12:03$2,000 is a month's stipend for a baker.
01:12:08Pizza maker?
01:12:09Pizza maker?
01:12:10Or any other job you get if you come to this country thinking you're going to make it.
01:12:16Now, what's the point?
01:12:19Even if I show to the people who were born here that I deserve a little bit of that spotlight,
01:12:25they still don't trust me like they're friends.
01:12:29The people who speak their language, who watch the same TV shows when they were kids,
01:12:35who have dads who go golfing together, who went to the same high school and ate the same brand of ice cream,
01:12:45who had all the options since they were teenagers,
01:12:53who can travel to the country of their parents,
01:12:58but call the place they leave home.
01:13:03So when you talk about your Italian heritage,
01:13:08watch, watch your mouth,
01:13:11because you're about as Italiano as I am Canadian.
01:13:20We're going to hire a lawyer,
01:13:37and we're going to reveal what Arcadia is doing if it's the last thing we do in this country.
01:13:43Okay?
01:14:04You are of a different kind, Mr. Rossetti.
01:14:06Both of you.
01:14:09You came to this country with nothing but hope.
01:14:12Yet you're still here,
01:14:13fighting,
01:14:14hustling.
01:14:16You are a successful and beautiful couple already.
01:14:21You have wealth that you can't show.
01:14:24You can share.
01:14:26Share it with those less fortunate.
01:14:28Less fortunate.
01:14:44So, when you land,
01:14:46Mr. Antonio wanted to take you to the airport.
01:14:50He's organizing a small party with everyone else.

01:15:06Okay.
01:15:13So, now you can work with traveling?
01:15:15Yes, what is traveling work?
01:15:17You want to meet both of you.
01:15:20Where will you go?
01:15:22I don't know.
01:15:23I'll check the schedule.

01:15:35You've got to meet everyone.
01:15:37From here,
01:15:38there's a lot of people coming.
01:15:40Sounds like quite a party.
01:15:41Okay, Karan.
01:15:42I have to go.
01:15:43You know,
01:15:44What is the pleasure of your mother and father?
01:15:50I'm not a surgeon, Karan.
01:15:52You're happy.
01:15:53And that's what's important.
01:15:58Okay.
01:15:59Let's talk.
01:16:02Okay, Amira.
01:16:05Let's talk.
01:16:14I've had this wine breathing for a little while because I want to share with you
01:16:44something that is very special to me. This is an Amaroni 2013 from Vaporicella. I first tried this wine when I was with my father. He used to drink wine only casually but when it came to special occasions he wanted to treat his guest to something truly exceptional.
01:17:14When I sip this wine, it's not the cherry, the black fig or the carob that I focused on.
01:17:39It's the smell of my mother's tortilloni with ragu. That smell would stay in the kitchen for an entire afternoon.
01:17:48It's the memories of my father telling me stories from his childhood when he proposed to my mother on a rainy night in the olive grove.
01:18:00It's the invisible beauty of things we don't notice but persist beyond our base senses.
01:18:09For any do of little things the heart finds its morning, wrote the poet Carillo Gibran, sharing a glass of wine with those you love.
01:18:16Hearing an old story from a friend from a friend.
01:18:23Realizing for a moment how it is for a moment how it is for a moment how it is for a moment.
01:18:30How special it is for a moment how it is for a moment.
01:18:35Sharing a glass of wine with those you love.
01:18:42Hearing an old story from a friend.
01:18:50Realizing for a moment how special this all is.
01:18:59And that there's nothing you would cherish more
01:19:02in that ephemeral instant.
01:19:32And that the debtor has Polsce and this is what was really natural.
01:19:36That there's nothing you would learn.
01:19:38It's inside the debtor.
01:19:41It's inside the debtor.
01:19:44The debtor has been damaged in that pocket.
01:19:47It's inside the debtor.
01:19:49One more of the debtor.
01:19:51The debtor has been damaged in the debtor's debt.
01:19:53The debtor has been destroyed in the debtor.
01:19:56The debtor could have since then.
