00:00:00So many hours spent looking for answers, turning the pages through all your chapters, hoping
00:00:15to find your place.
00:00:19Somewhere so bright, someone to love you, somewhere to run.
00:00:26You can't escape to and know that you are safe, yeah, you have found your place.
00:00:37Right here, right here, a place where you know you're always home.
00:00:46Right here, right here, no matter where you go.
00:00:56Oh, hey, Sandy, how's Tom?
00:01:01Hi, Mary.
00:01:01Oh, he's great, thanks.
00:01:03Are you thinking of a trip to Bali?
00:01:05Dreaming about it, maybe.
00:01:06Well, go in the spring before the high season starts.
00:01:09It's less crowded and the weather is gorgeous.
00:01:11Wow.
00:01:12Have you been?
00:01:13No, but I have read that book from cover to cover, so it's almost like I've been there.
00:01:17And while you're in the area, you know, Australia is not that far away, and it's absolutely beautiful.
00:01:24Be ashamed to miss it.
00:01:25You've been to Australia?
00:01:26No.
00:01:27Another great book.
00:01:29Okay, well, good to know.
00:01:32Let me know if you need any.
00:01:33Okay, will do.
00:01:34Thanks.
00:01:34Hey, I just poured that for myself.
00:01:46Mary, don't you remember anything Mom and Dad taught us about Sherry?
00:01:49Wait a second.
00:01:51Weren't you supposed to have study group today?
00:01:52I did.
00:01:53We quizzed each other while we were shooting hoops.
00:01:55Hoops?
00:01:56Basketball.
00:01:57Tyler, I love that you're going to business school.
00:01:59I do, but you need to take it seriously.
00:02:02I know.
00:02:03I am.
00:02:03Okay, well, dribbling hoops doesn't sound like seriously.
00:02:06Dribbling hoops.
00:02:06Wow, you really are a sports nut, aren't you?
00:02:09Did you check the year-end reports?
00:02:10I did.
00:02:11They are not bad.
00:02:14Not bad?
00:02:16Mary, the first thing they teach us in business school is numbers in red are not good.
00:02:20It's a slow time.
00:02:20It'll pick up.
00:02:23Have you talked to Mom and Dad?
00:02:25No.
00:02:25And you're not going to either, because the store is ours, they're retired, and this red stuff, it's our problem now.
00:02:31Well, then we really need to talk about updating the store.
00:02:33We have a website.
00:02:34We have a Facebook page.
00:02:35So we're competitive with ten years ago.
00:02:37Tyler, on the same page, has been here for almost 40 years because we're traditional.
00:02:44This is a place where people can come in and pick up a book and have a conversation about it with another human being.
00:02:49If there was another human being here, that is.
00:02:52Look, this is a bookstore.
00:02:53It's not a web arcade, digital, virtual cyber hacking zone.
00:02:58You have no idea what you're saying, do you?
00:03:00No, I don't.
00:03:02The point is, we haven't survived for almost 40 years by trying to be something that we're not.
00:03:08We've done it by being who we are.
00:03:09Then why are you meeting with Janet and love you?
00:03:11Because we went to college together.
00:03:13And she runs a big PR firm.
00:03:14All right, fine.
00:03:15She offered to help out with the 40th anniversary.
00:03:17Wow, she must be a really big deal if you're going all the way downtown.
00:03:20I mean, that is a big adventure for you.
00:03:22Is this the part where you're taking things more seriously?
00:03:27Oh, man, he did it again.
00:03:29Who did what?
00:03:30Adam Claiborne.
00:03:31Who?
00:03:32The Denver Royals hockey player.
00:03:34He got into it with a ref last night and got booted from the game.
00:03:37Hockey.
00:03:37That's the one where you throw the old pigskin down the field, yes?
00:03:42Sometimes I can't tell if you're joking.
00:03:44I just don't care about some guy in cleats getting kicked out of a game.
00:03:46It's hockey.
00:03:47He's playing on skates.
00:03:48I know what hockey is.
00:03:49Do you?
00:03:51Go away.
00:03:53Hmm.
00:04:06Uncle Adam!
00:04:08Oh.
00:04:09Come on in, Graham.
00:04:11Can we play monster?
00:04:14Yeah, sure.
00:04:15Yeah.
00:04:16Okay, little guy.
00:04:29Let's get you dressed so Uncle Adam can get some sleep.
00:04:32No.
00:04:33You know, we do have a guest room.
00:04:35What can I say?
00:04:35I like sofas.
00:04:36Sure you do.
00:04:40Come on.
00:04:41I don't need any homecoming.
00:04:42It's a little early for monster, isn't it?
00:04:44It's never too early for games that amuse four-year-olds.
00:04:46Or the grown-ups who act like them.
00:04:48It is too early for a lecture, though.
00:04:50Maybe you should have slept at your place instead of on my couch.
00:04:52Press was camped out of my place downtown.
00:04:55I wasn't in the mood.
00:04:56Yeah, I know.
00:04:56Erica keeps calling your phone, and when you don't pick up, she calls mine.
00:04:59Over and over and over again.
00:05:01Did you tell her I was here?
00:05:02No, but I'm pretty sure she knows.
00:05:04She's got powers or something.
00:05:06Chuck, she's the president of a hockey team.
00:05:07She's not a wizard.
00:05:08And she's also really mad at you.
00:05:10Erica is always mad at me.
00:05:12Yeah, because you keep causing trouble and costing us games.
00:05:14No.
00:05:15It's because we dated years ago, and she still hasn't gotten over the fact that I broke up with her.
00:05:20Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's the losing the game part.
00:05:23Adam, you've been ejected from three games this season.
00:05:27What happened to you?
00:05:28Whoa.
00:05:29When we were on the team in Texas, we were the wild ones.
00:05:32Well, I got traded to Denver.
00:05:33I met Sarah, got married, and had a kid.
00:05:35I grew up.
00:05:37Maybe you should try it.
00:05:39What?
00:05:39I'm losing my childlike sense of wonder?
00:05:42It's so quiet out here in the suburbs.
00:05:44Why don't you move back downtown?
00:05:46Because I am happy.
00:05:48Again, maybe you should try it.
00:05:51Look, I'm the one who had to convince Erica to bring you here because I promised her that you have changed.
00:05:55This is why you got kicked off the Texas team, Seattle and New Jersey.
00:05:59New Jersey was not my fault.
00:06:00The guy on the other team started.
00:06:02Well, according to you, it's always the other guy.
00:06:03If Erica cuts you from the team...
00:06:06Erica's not going to cut me.
00:06:08Okay.
00:06:09Answer the phone, then.
00:06:12I will.
00:06:13After I get some air and a coffee.
00:06:15Let's see.
00:06:18No store coffee.
00:06:48Can I help you, sir?
00:06:58Coffee.
00:06:59Fuck.
00:07:00Oh, we don't have coffee.
00:07:02Oh, well, that's mine.
00:07:04I'll take whatever you've got.
00:07:06Except none of that weird flavored stuff.
00:07:08If I wanted hazelnuts in my coffee, I'd go to wherever hazelnuts are from.
00:07:11Oh, well, now that is interesting.
00:07:13You know, they originally thought that they were from Damascus, but now evidence points
00:07:17to Scotland almost 9,000 years ago.
00:07:20Can I just get my coffee?
00:07:22Uh, we don't have coffee.
00:07:25Oh, okay.
00:07:26I get it.
00:07:27I got to buy a book first in order to get a cup of coffee?
00:07:28No, you have to buy a book because it's a bookstore.
00:07:31Look, Mike.
00:07:33Here.
00:07:34Quilting.
00:07:35You got a problem with that?
00:07:37Well, that'll be $19.95.
00:07:50Now, can I get my coffee?
00:07:51We don't have coffee.
00:07:53This is a bookstore.
00:07:54All bookstores have coffee.
00:07:55No, they don't.
00:07:56This one doesn't.
00:07:57Then why don't I just buy that book?
00:07:58Because you need a hobby?
00:07:59No, I need a coffee.
00:08:00Yeah, we're right back where we started.
00:08:02I want my money back.
00:08:04Sorry.
00:08:07You don't accept returns?
00:08:09People read books and then they bring them back expecting a refund.
00:08:12Yeah, but I just bought that 30 seconds ago.
00:08:14Store policy, no exceptions.
00:08:16Look, I...
00:08:17Just...
00:08:21Great.
00:08:22You know what?
00:08:23Never mind.
00:08:24I'll go find a real bookstore somewhere.
00:08:29Sir?
00:08:30Aren't you forgetting something?
00:08:43Arrogate.
00:08:46I'm tight.
00:08:49And what?
00:09:00Okay, so I think we know everyone here, but for the record, I'm Tyler, this is my sister,
00:09:09Mary, and we're here for book chat.
00:09:11Mary, what are we chatting about today?
00:09:13The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, one of my favorite books.
00:09:18You say that every week.
00:09:20How am I supposed to choose?
00:09:22There are too many good books.
00:09:24I mean, the whole world is here.
00:09:28Well, why don't we get started?
00:09:30Now, when I first read The Great Gatsby, I was struck by Fitzgerald's color imagery.
00:09:34He basically talks right about how he looks specifically the colors that he uses.
00:09:39I mean, we can just go right from there.
00:10:09I cannot thank you enough for agreeing to help me out.
00:10:19Stop.
00:10:20You helped me through my finals in college, so I owe you a lot more than some free PR advice.
00:10:24Paris.
00:10:27I've always wanted to go.
00:10:29You were always talking about the places that you read about you were gonna go and visit.
00:10:33Yeah.
00:10:34What have you knocked off your list?
00:10:35Uh, well, you know, I, uh, I did go a few places after college, but then I just got so busy helping out my folks with the store and everything.
00:10:45And now you run it.
00:10:47Hmm.
00:10:48It's great.
00:10:49Well, it's not much, but...
00:10:51That's why you came to me.
00:10:53So let's talk ideas.
00:10:54I had my staff do some research, and where I would love to start is getting on the same page, more integrated into the community.
00:11:02Uh, well, we've been there almost 40 years, so we're kind of a fixture.
00:11:06Sure.
00:11:07But these days, it's a lot more than just longevity.
00:11:09You need to connect with people.
00:11:11How?
00:11:12Well, your neighborhood has a kids' hockey league, you could sponsor a team, or we could do more advertising at nearby businesses.
00:11:18Oh, and the 40th anniversary, you need to do a big party for that.
00:11:22Maybe a winter festival kind of thing.
00:11:24Get the whole neighborhood to come out and celebrate.
00:11:27Um, all of these things take money.
00:11:32You know the old saying, you need to spend money to make money.
00:11:35Well, you have to have the money to spend the money to...
00:11:39I...
00:11:40I...
00:11:41What I'm trying to say is, we would love to do things like this, but...
00:11:45Things are that tight, huh?
00:11:46It's a slow time, but it's gonna pick up.
00:11:48Mary...
00:11:51Nobody comes to see me when things are going great.
00:11:54They come to see me when things are... broken.
00:11:57I'm a fixer.
00:12:00I can fix this.
00:12:02How?
00:12:03Truth?
00:12:04I have no idea.
00:12:06But I am convinced that the right idea will present itself, and when it does, we're gonna be ready.
00:12:14Are you with me?
00:12:17I am.
00:12:20Great.
00:12:25Did you forget how to answer your phone?
00:12:27Erica, I...
00:12:28Oh, no, no, no, Adam.
00:12:29This is the part where I talk, and you listen.
00:12:31That reminds me of when we dated.
00:12:34Ten-game suspension.
00:12:36Come on.
00:12:37This is the third time you've been kicked off the ice this season.
00:12:40This last time cost us the game.
00:12:42The ref completely missed Jack being boarded.
00:12:44It's like he was blind.
00:12:45It's not your job to tell the ref what he missed.
00:12:47It's your job to stay out of trouble and win games.
00:12:50I'm sorry, okay?
00:12:51No, Adam.
00:12:52It's not okay.
00:12:54The owner of the team is...
00:12:55Is your father.
00:12:56Talk to him.
00:12:58I did talk to him.
00:12:59He's the one who talked me out of cutting you.
00:13:04Are you sure there's not some lingering, you know, animosity over me breaking up with you?
00:13:11First of all, I broke up with you.
00:13:14No, you didn't.
00:13:15And second of all, that was five years ago, and I promise you I am over it.
00:13:18Okay.
00:13:19Well, what would you have to be over it about if you broke up with me?
00:13:22I do not like being this tense person.
00:13:25I really don't, but you just bring it out in me.
00:13:28In fact, you know what?
00:13:29From this point forward, I'm gonna add one game to your suspension for everything you say that makes me mad.
00:13:36I figured in about ten minutes, well, you're gonna be out for the rest of the season.
00:13:40Okay, okay.
00:13:41Just tell me what I have to do to fix this.
00:13:43I'm glad you asked.
00:13:44Call our PR person.
00:13:49While you're suspended, you are going to work with her to repair your image.
00:13:53There's nothing wrong with my image.
00:13:55Eleven games.
00:13:56For what?
00:13:57Adam, we strive to maintain a positive image with the community and our fans.
00:14:03This is our image.
00:14:06This is yours.
00:14:08Okay.
00:14:09Okay.
00:14:10I'll call Janet Dunleavy tomorrow.
00:14:12Today.
00:14:13And please just do whatever she says.
00:14:14Don't argue with her.
00:14:15Don't think you have better ideas than her.
00:14:16Basically, just don't be you.
00:14:17Got it.
00:14:18But just one more thing.
00:14:24I broke up with you.
00:14:30Twelve games.
00:14:31Totally worth it.
00:14:43So you guys are thinking about going on a cruise this summer?
00:14:45Wow.
00:14:46Well, your mother's thinking about it.
00:14:49I'm thinking about whether or not I want to think about it.
00:14:51Sweetheart, we are retired now.
00:14:53This is exactly the kind of adventure we should be having.
00:14:56Adventure? It's a Caribbean cruise.
00:14:59Oh.
00:15:00It's all-you-can-eat buffets.
00:15:02It's not wrestling crocodiles in the Amazon.
00:15:04I just think that we should take advantage of the fact
00:15:07that we do not have to worry about the store anymore.
00:15:10Mary and Tyler have got it all under control.
00:15:12Yeah, so how is the business?
00:15:15Paul, let's find out. Don't worry.
00:15:19Tyler, how's school, honey?
00:15:22Well, I'm having a little problem.
00:15:25Oh? What is it?
00:15:27There's this one class, and it's just not going well.
00:15:31It's like a balance sheet that keeps coming up red.
00:15:35Oh. Well, what is it about this class that's got you stumped?
00:15:38I've done all my readings for it obsessively,
00:15:41but I feel like I'm falling behind.
00:15:44Can't keep up.
00:15:45Oh. Well, have you asked for any help?
00:15:47Not really.
00:15:48That's not true.
00:15:49He...
00:15:50Well, you've gone to advisors.
00:15:52You just haven't figured out exactly what to do yet.
00:15:55Hmm.
00:15:56Well, you gotta do what you gotta do, kiddo.
00:15:58Mm-hmm.
00:15:59Your mother's right, Tyler.
00:16:01I mean, if you've got these advisors giving you advice,
00:16:03you should listen to it.
00:16:05Mm-hmm.
00:16:06Even if it means doing something outside of your comfort zone.
00:16:08Hmm.
00:16:09Wait.
00:16:10Like going on a cruise?
00:16:14And that right there, kids, that is why I married your mother.
00:16:17Oh, wine.
00:16:18I'll take some wine, please.
00:16:19Yeah.
00:16:20Me too.
00:16:21I feel like I'm waiting for the principal to put me in detention.
00:16:34It's not that bad.
00:16:35It's what I tried to tell Erica.
00:16:37Oh, don't get me wrong.
00:16:38It's bad.
00:16:39But we can repair this.
00:16:41We just need to find a way to make people like you.
00:16:57People like me.
00:17:00Oh, no.
00:17:02They don't.
00:17:04I had my team do a flash poll last night after Erica called me,
00:17:07and all of the results, they weren't good.
00:17:12Telemarketers have higher likability than you do.
00:17:16That's disturbing.
00:17:18But the good news is that they want to like you.
00:17:21They love the idea of a second chance, and they are open to giving you one.
00:17:24How?
00:17:25Well, one strategy I've used in the past is sort of like a buddy system.
00:17:30We pair you with a respected member of the community,
00:17:32someone who can balance things out.
00:17:34According to this, Mold has a higher score than I do.
00:17:37Who would want to be paired with me?
00:17:38You'd be surprised.
00:17:40We get you involved in local activities, maybe do some volunteer work.
00:17:43It's good PR for both you and whoever we pair you up with.
00:17:46Did you have someone in mind?
00:17:48Not yet, but...
00:17:51Sorry.
00:17:52Hold on.
00:17:53Hi.
00:17:56Send her in.
00:17:58Mary.
00:17:59Hi.
00:18:00I'm so sorry to come by unannounced.
00:18:02I just wanted to be very clear that I'm so ready to do whatever it takes to make this work.
00:18:15Excellent, because I know just what to do.
00:18:17I'm gonna pair you with one of my other clients, and you are both gonna solve each other's problems.
00:18:21That's wonderful.
00:18:22Who?
00:18:23Who?
00:18:24Mary Campbell.
00:18:25Adam Claiborne.
00:18:28You.
00:18:31You.
00:18:32Shall we get started?
00:18:33No!
00:18:35The hockey team will pay for everything.
00:18:38This way, we can put together a big to-do for the 40th anniversary of the store, and he can host it or sign jerseys or something.
00:18:45We can sponsor a junior hockey team.
00:18:47You can coach it.
00:18:48You and cute kids, this is the kind of immediate boost of goodwill that you need in order to get back on the team.
00:18:53Because when it works, when we take an uncouth hockey player and turn him into a cultured book lover who helps the community, you are going to get the credit for that.
00:19:03You can be the hero that rescues the beloved neighborhood institution.
00:19:08It's like you're Superman, and she's your Lois Lane.
00:19:13It's like you're Henry Higgins to his Eliza Doolittle.
00:19:17It's a second chance you need to reinvent the bookstore.
00:19:20Besides, if things are as bad as you say they are, you need a fresh start.
00:19:26You need to do something big to save the bookstore.
00:19:31You need a new beginning.
00:19:34This could be your last chance to save your career.
00:19:50This is going to be a disaster.
00:19:51Give it a chance.
00:19:52Good morning.
00:19:53Hi, Janet Dunleavy.
00:19:54Hi.
00:19:55I'm Mary's brother, Tyler.
00:19:56And you are Adam Claibor.
00:19:57I'm a huge fan.
00:19:58I can see that.
00:19:59Wait.
00:20:00Mary.
00:20:01Tyler.
00:20:02There's got to be more to that story.
00:20:03That's my mother's favorite show.
00:20:04Could be worse.
00:20:05It could be called Joanie and Chachi.
00:20:06Why don't we get started?
00:20:07So, first off, great news.
00:20:08I got a permit to do a Winterfest party out in front of the bookstore for the 40th anniversary,
00:20:13which is our big chance to reach a lot of people at once.
00:20:15It's our big chance to reach a lot of people at once.
00:20:17It's going to be a disaster.
00:20:18It's going to be a disaster.
00:20:19Give it a chance.
00:20:20Good morning.
00:20:21Good morning.
00:20:22Hi, Janet Dunleavy.
00:20:23Hi.
00:20:24I'm Mary's brother, Tyler.
00:20:25And you are Adam Claibor.
00:20:26I'm a huge fan.
00:20:27I can see that.
00:20:28I can see it.
00:20:29You are the only one.
00:20:30I can see it.
00:20:31It's our big chance to reach a lot of people at once.
00:20:32It's in four weeks.
00:20:33Four weeks?
00:20:34Is that enough time to get everything ready?
00:20:35Mm-hmm.
00:20:36That's why we're here.
00:20:37We can brainstorm ideas.
00:20:38We need a big one.
00:20:40A showcase idea.
00:20:42Anybody?
00:20:43How about a food truck?
00:20:45Maybe one that serves coffee.
00:20:46How's the quilt coming?
00:20:47I'm just saying I've never seen a book store that didn't have coffee.
00:20:49Visit a lot of them, do you?
00:20:50You don't know me.
00:20:51What was the last book you read?
00:20:52Oh, and Sports Illustrated.
00:20:54Not a book.
00:20:55okay why don't we put a pin in that how about we talk about the junior hockey team we're gonna

00:22:56absolutely not although what are you doing well i was just gonna say that sometimes when a ref makes
00:23:04a really bad call you can't just say nothing for instance this one time in albuquerque we
00:23:07no you are not allowed to tell a 12 year old about that one time in albuquerque you don't even know
00:23:12what happened if you were involved it could not have been good now listen for some reason that is
00:23:16totally beyond my comprehension you are a role model to these kids so be a good one

00:23:35it's gonna be a disaster
00:23:41okay no matter what we might think of each other i think we can both agree
00:23:45the most important thing here is the team and making sure they have a good time so how about
00:23:49we call a truce until after practice
00:23:51they're great
00:23:54okay

00:24:25no you ask them what they do on the team
00:24:27you didn't ask them anything about themselves like what their names are or their interests or what

00:25:26sch
00:25:27we
00:25:29e
00:25:30it
00:25:32I've finished shutting everything down.
00:25:46You have to do anything tonight?
00:25:46You want to come for dinner with me and my friends?
00:25:48Uh, you know, I think I'm just going to stay in and read.
00:25:51What are you reading?
00:25:53Wuthering Heights.
00:25:54I've read it so many times.
00:25:55It just keeps getting better.
00:25:58Well, don't stay too late.
00:25:59Oh, and if you have any questions about hockey,
00:26:03you can just ask me.
00:26:16Bring it in, guys.
00:26:17Yes.
00:26:22Any questions?
00:26:23Noah.
00:26:24What happened in Albuquerque?
00:26:25Oh, later.
00:26:27Uh, later.
00:26:29Okay.
00:26:30All right, we're going to crush it out there, right?
00:26:31Yeah!
00:26:32Respectfully, right?
00:26:34Yes, because hockey has a rich history.
00:26:36In fact, it dates back to 1300 when a certain...
00:26:39You're kidding me, right?
00:26:40I think they could use a little bit of historical context.
00:26:43I mean, just because Noah is the center forward
00:26:45and Jesse is right defense,
00:26:47they're both working to get the puck into the crease.
00:26:49I don't think that they need to be barbarians about it.
00:26:51No, someone read a book about hockey.
00:26:53Don't know what makes you think that.
00:26:54Because the other day, all you knew was Gulley.
00:26:56Didn't want to show off.
00:26:57Well, look, I think it's cute,
00:26:58but I want you to stick to the books
00:26:59and let me deal with the important things.
00:27:00You know, like winning.
00:27:01Winning isn't everything.
00:27:02Yes, it is.
00:27:03That's why it's a competitive sport.
00:27:05If there wasn't a winner,
00:27:06it would just be people out there
00:27:07hitting a piece of rubber with a stick.
00:27:08Did you know that the original hockey pucks
00:27:10were made of wood?
00:27:11Stop it.
00:27:11Just...
00:27:12On the same page!
00:27:15Oh, there's a front of the net!
00:27:28Good sportsmanship!
00:27:32Come on, guys, hurry back!
00:27:34Back check hard!
00:27:36Stay on him, play the man, not the puck!
00:27:38That doesn't make sense.
00:27:39It's the Cardinal rule of defense.
00:27:40But we want the puck.
00:27:41Well, yes, we do, but...
00:27:44Yeah.
00:27:46Oh, come on!
00:27:47You can't give him a penalty for that!
00:27:48What happened?
00:27:49We got a penalty.
00:27:50It's totally bogus.
00:27:51Hey, ref!
00:27:52There's no way you call that!
00:27:53I don't think you should be doing it.
00:27:54Nothing wrong.
00:27:55It's my team.
00:27:55I'm going to handle it.
00:27:56Handle what?
00:27:57You don't even know what's going on.
00:27:58That's not the point.
00:27:58Hey, ref!
00:27:59Ref!
00:27:59Let him play, ref!
00:28:00No!
00:28:01Where'd you get your whistle?
00:28:02A Cracker Jack box?
00:28:03You should not be talking to him like that.
00:28:04He's wearing a shirt.
00:28:05Not exactly what I had in mind.
00:28:20Look at this.
00:28:21I do look bonkers.
00:28:22What about me?
00:28:23I need good press, not more bad.
00:28:25Guys, relax.
00:28:26We can fix this.
00:28:26I hope so, because my entire life is in your hands right now.
00:28:29Mine too.
00:28:29See?
00:28:30There.
00:28:30Now you have something in common.
00:28:31Truce.
00:28:36For real this time?
00:28:40Truce.
00:28:41Wonderful.
00:28:42Things are looking up already.
00:28:43Now, we have three weeks into the winter anniversary party,
00:28:47and we still need that showcase idea.
00:28:48How do I fit into this anniversary party?
00:28:50Master of ceremony, signing autographs, kissing babies, whatever it takes.
00:28:54We're going to do a trial run at a book fair this weekend.
00:28:57Aren't book fairs expensive to enter?
00:28:59Not this one.
00:29:00The school board's staging it to promote reading.
00:29:02Besides, the hockey team will cover any expenses.
00:29:04You've got a booth right up front.
00:29:05Oh, thank you.
00:29:06That's so nice.
00:29:07You're welcome.
00:29:08But since there's nothing to host, per se,
00:29:10we need a good reason for Adam to be there.
00:29:12We could bring a bunch of books about hockey.
00:29:14Great idea.
00:29:15Mary, do you know any good books on hockey?
00:29:17Yeah, Mary.
00:29:19Do you?
00:29:22You and Dan had this door for almost 40 years without a problem,
00:29:25and we've had it less than a year, and it's got problems.
00:29:29How do you worry too much?
00:29:30I have to.
00:29:31I just don't know how to manage the store and babysit this Adam at the same time.
00:29:36Oh, Tyler said he's really nice.
00:29:37He's not.
00:29:39He's reckless.
00:29:41He's immature.
00:29:42He's rude.
00:29:45Why are you smiling like that?
00:29:48Oh.
00:29:49Shakespeare, just a little quote about the lady doth protest too much.
00:29:54Oh, no.
00:29:55No.
00:29:57No.
00:29:57Mm-hmm.
00:29:58Not even a little bit.
00:29:59Oh.
00:30:00Oh.
00:30:00Oh.
00:30:00Oh.
00:30:00Oh.
00:30:00Excuse me.
00:30:22Hey.
00:30:23What is this?
00:30:24What is a...
00:30:25It's a truck.
00:30:26I know what a truck is.
00:30:27Why is it in front of my store with my sign on it?
00:30:30Oh.
00:30:31You must be Mary.
00:30:32Adam said you might be a little high strung.
00:30:33What?
00:30:35Listen to me.
00:30:36Whatever this is costing, I cannot afford it.
00:30:38No.
00:30:39Adam took care of it.
00:30:40Yeah.
00:30:41Are you opening soon?
00:30:42Because I got about three people waiting to get a book in their free cup, so...
00:30:49Sorry for the delay.
00:30:55Thanks, Adam.
00:30:59Thank you for helping me get set up for the book.
00:31:02You just offended, remember?
00:31:04I didn't have anything better to do tonight.
00:31:06Thank you also for the coffee truck.
00:31:08That was very nice, and we actually sold a lot of books.
00:31:12Really?
00:31:12Yes, it was a good idea.
00:31:14Maybe a showcase idea.
00:31:16Don't push it.
00:31:18You know, if I don't get back on the team, I can always help you run this place.
00:31:23What are you going to do when you're done with hockey?
00:31:27I don't know.
00:31:28I haven't thought about it.
00:31:30How can you not think about the future, not make a plan?
00:31:33Yeah, I'm more of a live-in-the-moment kind of guy.
00:31:35But without a plan, you're just wandering.
00:31:40Some of the world's greatest discoveries were made by people who were just wandering.
00:31:44Really?
00:31:45Mm-hmm.
00:31:46Name one.
00:31:48Chocolate chip cookie.
00:31:49What?
00:31:50Some chef was trying to make chocolate cookies and didn't have the right ingredients,
00:31:54so she put chocolate chunks into the batter thinking it would mix in.
00:31:56It didn't, and that became the chocolate chip cookie.
00:31:59That can't be true.
00:32:00It's true.
00:32:02Surely I would have heard something about this.
00:32:06Mm-hmm.
00:32:08Mm-hmm.
00:32:09Ah!
00:32:18Ruth Wakefield in her kitchen, 1938.
00:32:24Well, I'll be darned.
00:32:25How did you know that?
00:32:26I read things other than Sports Illustrated.
00:32:31What's your favorite book?
00:32:33I don't know.
00:32:34What do you mean you don't know?
00:32:37Nobody's ever asked me that.
00:32:38I mean, surely there was some book that made an impression on you at some point?
00:32:44The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
00:32:46Really?
00:32:47I read it when I was a kid.
00:32:48I hadn't thought about it since.
00:32:49What did you like about it?
00:32:51Him and Huck Finn were always out exploring and getting into trouble, and I always...
00:32:55I just like the idea of it.
00:32:59It's a great book.
00:33:00It's one of my favorites, too.
00:33:02Although the book chat audience says that I have too many favorites.
00:33:05That doesn't surprise me.
00:33:12We're reading War of the Worlds next.
00:33:15Oh, they turned that Tom Cruise movie into a novel?
00:33:19I'm kidding.
00:33:23Anyway, here.
00:33:24In case you'd like to join us.
00:33:27You want to hear what I have to say about a book?
00:33:29I want to hear what anyone has to say about a book.
00:33:32I don't know if I'll have time.
00:33:34Right.
00:33:34I still have a couple chapters of that quilting book to go, and I have to see how it ends.
00:33:38I don't know if I have a book to go, and I have to see how it ends.
00:33:58Adam?
00:33:59Picture time.
00:34:00I cannot wait.
00:34:01I'm just talking to a couple fans here.
00:34:03Adam?
00:34:04As on the prize.
00:34:05Sorry ladies, duty calls
00:34:09Thank you, thank you
00:34:14What? They were fans
00:34:18They were groupies
00:34:22Why, because they were pretty?
00:34:24Pretty women can't be hockey fans
00:34:25I didn't say that, I just don't think you would be paying so much attention to them if they weren't pretty
00:34:28That's not true, all people who love hockey are seen equally in my book
00:34:31Do you even believe the things that come out of your mouth?
00:34:35I'm sorry, I am
00:34:42And I don't know what it is about him
00:34:44But he is just so maddening
00:34:46And he just pushes my buttons
00:34:47It's not that bad
00:34:50Oh good
00:34:51Oh don't get me wrong, it's bad
00:34:53May I see the article?
00:34:55I think it's because that you don't
00:34:56Just the headline?
00:34:57Just something like, Mary and Adam had it again
00:34:58Well you should talk to him
00:35:01I have
00:35:01And?
00:35:02And now I'm talking to you
00:35:03Me?
00:35:04Yes, you
00:35:05We are going to try this again tomorrow
00:35:10At another event that I've set up
00:35:12And I have some ground rules
00:35:14For the both of you
00:35:15But he's clearly
00:35:16Both of you
00:35:17Okay, so what are we here to do?
00:35:30Donate books to the library
00:35:32And what are we not here to do?
00:35:33Argue
00:35:34Or
00:35:34Use our outside voices
00:35:36Or
00:35:36Do anything that might embarrass us and by extension you
00:35:39Very good
00:35:40Are you guys ready?
00:35:41Here we go
00:35:42Smiles
00:35:44Yeah
00:35:48Car repair
00:35:56What's wrong with car repair?
00:35:58Well, not exactly literature
00:36:00You're such a snob
00:36:02I'm not a snob
00:36:03You think that just because you read everything you're so much smarter and better than everyone
00:36:06You think that just because I read anything that I am a snob?
00:36:09This is your vice
00:36:10Well, your vice is that you think that people who play hockey are out of control crazy
00:36:12No, I don't think that about everyone who plays hockey
00:36:15You're the one who keeps getting kicked out of games
00:36:17Why do you get into so many fights anyway?
00:36:23I don't go out and randomly start arguing with people
00:36:25What?
00:36:26So he started it?
00:36:27That's your defense?
00:36:28Kind of
00:36:29Yeah
00:36:29The thing with the ref the last game
00:36:32Someone on the other team boarded a guy on my team
00:36:35Boarded?
00:36:36You
00:36:36Pushed him into a wall excessively
00:36:38The ref didn't see it
00:36:40So I went to tell him and things kind of escalated from there
00:36:43So you were
00:36:45Defending your teammate?
00:36:47Yeah, you can do what you want to me
00:36:49I don't care
00:36:50I can take it
00:36:51But you don't mess with my teammates or people I care about
00:36:54Rather nice
00:36:57I have my moments
00:37:00And you might be right
00:37:03About what?
00:37:05I can just be a bit defensive
00:37:08Around really smart people
00:37:10I'm not that smart
00:37:13Oh, I wasn't talking about you
00:37:14Hi, Adam
00:37:19Hi, Miss Campbell
00:37:20Oh, uh, it's so nice to see you here
00:37:22Mom brings me every week
00:37:24That's wonderful
00:37:25By the way, she thinks it's you guys' fault that we lost the tournament
00:37:28She probably has a point
00:37:30Just remember, Noah
00:37:33Winning is not everything
00:37:35Adam said when he's the best
00:37:37Yeah, I don't know if I use those exact words
00:37:39You said only losers
00:37:41Okay, Noah, it's so good to see you
00:37:43Tell your mom I'll pay for therapy
00:37:45Kids love me
00:37:49Parents
00:37:50You've got to make them retract this
00:37:55Why?
00:37:57Because we are not
00:37:58And I don't
00:37:59It doesn't say that you are
00:38:01It asks a question which allows them to get away with just about anything
00:38:04Yes, but I do not want people thinking this about us
00:38:07It's about me
00:38:08The important thing is that they are thinking of you
00:38:10She's right
00:38:12I mean, look at all these customers
00:38:13We've had more people in the store today than we've had in the past month
00:38:16Combined
00:38:17Yes, but most of them aren't buying anything
00:38:19They just want to know if I'm dating Adam
00:38:22And, like, what's his favorite color?
00:38:24Which is green
00:38:25Why do I know this?
00:38:26Mary
00:38:27You just have to believe in the plan
00:38:30Ma'am
00:38:30I'm looking for another good thing to put the two of you in
00:38:33But, in the meantime, we're working on the big anniversary party
00:38:36That'll really be what turns things around
00:38:38Right
00:38:38Okay, I have to go
00:38:39Call you later
00:38:40Thanks, Janet
00:38:42Very proud of you, you know
00:38:46Me?
00:38:47Why?
00:38:49You're trying new things
00:38:50Opening up to new ideas
00:38:52You're excited about the possibilities of what could
00:38:54What do you want?
00:38:55I want to record tonight's book chat as a podcast
00:38:59No
00:38:59You know I don't like talking in front of a lot of people
00:39:03It's not like you're going to see them
00:39:04And, besides, I'll edit out the parts where you embarrass our family
00:39:08And bring about the ruination of the store
00:39:10Hi
00:39:18Got your message
00:39:20What's up?
00:39:21Have you heard from Adam?
00:39:22He was doing that library thing today
00:39:23And I was expecting some sort of disaster
00:39:25No, it went fine, actually
00:39:27In fact
00:39:28Did you see this?
00:39:31Oh
00:39:32Yeah
00:39:33Okay
00:39:35I can live with that
00:39:36Oh
00:39:36That's good
00:39:38Doesn't bother you?
00:39:40Why would it bother me?
00:39:41Well, because you and Adam were
00:39:42I broke up with him
00:39:44Okay
00:39:44Bother me
00:39:50That's ridiculous
00:39:52Hi, everyone
00:39:55Welcome to On the Same Page Book Chat
00:39:58We're recording a podcast today
00:39:59So if you want to say something, use a microphone
00:40:01Okay?
00:40:03Okay
00:40:03Mary, over to you
00:40:04Okay
00:40:06Uh, what book are we doing this week?
00:40:14Uh, War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells
00:40:18I'm sorry, I'm late
00:40:23Oh, thank you
00:40:26Uh, Mary, you were saying
00:40:30Yes
00:40:30War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells
00:40:36Often associated with the 1938 radio drama
00:40:39Of the same name by Orson Welles
00:40:41Oh, and also
00:40:42And say your name
00:40:43Adam Claiborne
00:40:49Of the Denver Royals
00:40:50And I was going to mention the Tom Cruise movie
00:40:54I love that movie
00:40:56Right?
00:40:58Adam, what did you think of the book?
00:40:59I thought it was great
00:41:00Good, good
00:41:02But, uh, what did you think about the themes?
00:41:04What was H.G. Wells commenting on?
00:41:08Uh, alien invasions are bad
00:41:11Okay, that's a good point
00:41:14But what about the issues of colonialism?
00:41:17I mean, the British Empire was making big moves at that time
00:41:21Fine, but sometimes an alien is just an alien
00:41:24And sometimes an alien is the king of England
00:41:25Are you saying we shouldn't comment on the deeper themes in novels?
00:41:29No, I'm not saying that
00:41:30But you also don't want to overthink things
00:41:33This story is about two sides in a battle for Earth
00:41:36It's like an intergalactic hockey game
00:41:38But it's also about the battle for the survival of the human race
00:41:41I mean, these aliens are using heat rays to decimate entire towns
00:41:44Now, I've read a lot of books about hockey
00:41:47And frankly, I don't see an equivalent
00:41:48You've never taken a puck to the face
00:41:50Well, fair enough
00:41:52But I just think we should dig a little deeper
00:41:54It doesn't get deeper than the basic urge to survive
00:41:56Yes, so you're talking a basic human reaction to stress
00:41:59Yeah, you're talking about fight
00:42:01Exactly
00:42:01I still say you're missing the point I was trying to make
00:42:15Adam, let it go
00:42:16Okay
00:42:17But next week when we do Dracula, I am not backing down
00:42:20That was you backing down
00:42:21Fair doubt most of my disagreements with people end
00:42:23Good point
00:42:23I thought it was great
00:42:24Mary, that's the most I've ever seen you talk in book chat
00:42:26Well, two are perfect together
00:42:28Uh, Tyler, we're late for dinner
00:42:36Oh, um, I was going to ask you guys if you wanted to go grab something
00:42:38Oh, weekly dinner at our parents' house
00:42:40Welcome to come
00:42:41Oh, I don't know
00:42:43Yeah, really, it's just the four of us, family thing
00:42:46They'll love it
00:42:46I mean, Dad's a huge hockey fan and Mom always cooks too much
00:42:49It's perfect
00:42:50Come on
00:42:56Seriously, these two were fantastic together
00:43:03You guys are going to love the podcast
00:43:05Well, I think it's great you're trying new things in the store, honey
00:43:07Don't you think so, Paul?
00:43:09I don't know
00:43:09There's something to be said for tried and true
00:43:11Maybe there's room for both
00:43:13You know, I was thinking
00:43:16Maybe we could add some sort of a refreshment station
00:43:20Somewhere where people could get water or coffee
00:43:24That sounds wonderful
00:43:27That sounds unbelievable
00:43:28I am open to new ideas
00:43:30I am!
00:43:38I'm sure
00:43:39You're pretty quiet, Adam
00:43:44I'm just enjoying this
00:43:46It's like watching a really good play
00:43:48So family dinners weren't like this when you were growing up?
00:43:51No
00:43:51No, I grew up in the foster care system
00:43:53So I was always bouncing from place to place
00:43:55I didn't know that
00:43:58No, it wasn't a big deal
00:43:59There was this one family that was really into hockey
00:44:02So ultimately it was a good thing
00:44:03That's wonderful
00:44:04Oh
00:44:05You should be really proud of all that you've accomplished, Adam
00:44:08You know what I'd be really proud about?
00:44:13Is finishing more of these potatoes
00:44:15Go ahead, please
00:44:16Thank you
00:44:18So, how's things going with the team?
00:44:33I'm still on the team
00:44:34So I'm taking that as a victory
00:44:36Right
00:44:36How's working with my sister?
00:44:42Great
00:44:42Yeah, just peachy
00:44:44It's okay, Adam
00:44:46I love her, but it can be frustrating
00:44:48Dealing with someone who can always find a book
00:44:50To prove she's right and you're wrong
00:44:52Yes
00:44:53What is up with the books?
00:44:54I don't know
00:44:55I have to ask my dad
00:44:56There's a picture of her in a crib
00:44:58Holding a copy of Little Women
00:44:59So she started early, huh?
00:45:02Yep
00:45:02Smartest person I know
00:45:04Except for when it comes to relationships
00:45:06Meaning?
00:45:09None of them can hold up to the heroes in her books
00:45:11You invited him home for dinner?
00:45:15Tyler invited him
00:45:17But it ended up being kind of okay
00:45:19That is high praise coming from you
00:45:22You're starting to like him
00:45:23I am not
00:45:24Well, not in the way that the local paper is inferring
00:45:27Anyway
00:45:28I didn't mean it that way
00:45:29You are spending a lot of time together
00:45:32Making each other nuts
00:45:34Some might call that passion
00:45:35Some shouldn't call it that because they're wrong
00:45:36I think you guys are good for each other
00:45:39I'm not talking about it just from a PR perspective
00:45:41Janet
00:45:42This is all about the bookstore for me
00:45:45All right
00:45:46Now look, sales are up
00:45:47But they are nowhere near what they need to be
00:45:50Patience
00:45:50Trust in me
00:45:52Trust in the process
00:45:53Everything will be fine
00:45:54All right
00:45:57Okay
00:46:09Nice job
00:46:15Now I'm up high
00:46:16A little more practice
00:46:17You'll be ready for the big leagues
00:46:18I can't believe we get to practice here today
00:46:21I told my mama I want to be a hockey player like you
00:46:23Oh yeah?
00:46:24What's she say?
00:46:26Nothing
00:46:26She has closed her eyes and put a hand on her face
00:46:28Okay
00:46:31What about your dad?
00:46:34He moved to California
00:46:35Well
00:46:38I think it's great that you want to be a hockey player
00:46:40But maybe you should tell your mom
00:46:41You want to be more like Wayne Gretzky
00:46:43Who's Wayne Gretzky?
00:46:47Why does everyone keep doing that?
00:46:51Who's Wayne Gretzky?
00:46:56Thanks for helping today
00:46:57Of course
00:46:58Except where was everyone?
00:47:01Photographers, Mary?
00:47:02This is off the books
00:47:02It's a good group of kids
00:47:04I like helping
00:47:05So I've been doing some extra coaching here and there
00:47:07That is very...
00:47:09Growing up with me?
00:47:10I had my moments
00:47:11I would need you back on the team
00:47:13I haven't been able to get together since you left
00:47:15You've won three of the last five games
00:47:17We should have won all five
00:47:18We had a big game on the road tomorrow
00:47:20And I wish you were going to be there with us
00:47:22I still have to do my penance
00:47:24Things with Mary getting any better?
00:47:28She's not so bad, I guess
00:47:29Well, for you, that means you like her
00:47:31Does not
00:47:33Hey
00:47:34From what you told me
00:47:35She is exactly what you need
00:47:37Someone who stands up to you
00:47:38I don't think that's what I need
00:47:41But even if I did
00:47:42She's made it pretty clear
00:47:44That she was nothing to do with me or my world
00:47:45I'll have you showing her your world
00:47:48Sarah, thank you so much for having us over to watch the game
00:48:11Oh, hey, I love the company
00:48:13I get so nervous watching these guys play on the road
00:48:16What happened?
00:48:18The other team just scored
00:48:19What do we say when the other team scores?
00:48:22Boo!
00:48:23That's right
00:48:23They should make the puck bigger so you can see it better on TV
00:48:28That is a great idea
00:48:29I'll take your suggestions to the league
00:48:32Okay, bud, come on, bath time
00:48:35No!
00:48:35Yeah
00:48:36You can watch the rest of the game later, okay?
00:48:38Otherwise, the claw will get you
00:48:42Come on
00:48:45You guys need anything?
00:48:47Oh, we're good
00:48:47I'm good, are you?
00:48:50Good?
00:48:50Yeah
00:48:50I'm good
00:48:51Okay, I'll be back in a bit
00:48:53Thanks for coming today
00:49:03I know hockey isn't your cup of tea
00:49:04Well, Sarah and Graham are great
00:49:07And this hockey business is growing on me
00:49:10Careful
00:49:10Soon you'll be a fanatic like me
00:49:12You really miss it, don't you?
00:49:16Yeah, I really do
00:49:17It's my whole life
00:49:19Is that stupid?
00:49:21Well, if it's your whole life
00:49:22Then getting kicked off the team
00:49:24Probably not your best, Mom
00:49:26Good point
00:49:28I suppose I should learn something from all this
00:49:31Like what?
00:49:32Can I get back to you on that?
00:49:33Well, what I've learned
00:49:37Is that I am not clear
00:49:39On all the rules of this game
00:49:40Sometimes the best way to learn
00:49:45Is by doing
00:49:45This is not what I had in mind
00:50:00You were the one who said
00:50:01You were open to new ideas
00:50:03Okay
00:50:07There you go
00:50:11There you go
00:50:25Thank you
00:50:30Right, we'll have to work on your stomping skills
00:50:33But not bad
00:50:33I just skated 10 feet
00:50:35I think it's a little bit early for not bad
00:50:37What if I fall down a lot?
00:50:40What if I fall down a lot?
00:50:40You're wearing enough protective
00:50:42You're at a cushion
00:50:42You're at a cushion to fall from space
00:50:43Besides, it doesn't matter how many times you fall down
00:50:46It only matters how many times you get back up again
00:50:48Sounds like something my dad would say
00:50:50Yeah, because he's awesome
00:50:52Now let's work on how you're holding that stick
00:50:55Yes
00:50:55Let's put your right hand at the top of the stick
00:50:58Like this
00:50:58Yep, bring the stick out in front of you
00:51:00Okay
00:51:01There you go
00:51:01Yep
00:51:02And left hand halfway down
00:51:03Perfect
00:51:04Square yourself up to this puck
00:51:05So the puck should be at 9 o'clock
00:51:08Bring yourself forward
00:51:10Yep, further
00:51:12A little more
00:51:13Nice and square
00:51:14Now, bring your stick back
00:51:17Not too far
00:51:17And when you bring it forward
00:51:19Make sure you make contact with the ice first
00:51:21Before you hit the puck
00:51:22Before?
00:51:22Yeah
00:51:22That way you get the full power of the shot
00:51:24Try it
00:51:26Right
00:51:26Before I
00:51:28Before
00:51:28I hit it!
00:51:42I hit the puck!
00:51:44Woo!
00:51:45Nice job
00:51:46Now you want to hit it towards the net
00:51:49Can I just savor this small victory first?
00:51:52Yes, you may
00:51:53You all right?
00:52:00No, I'm fine
00:52:01All right
00:52:16I had a fun idea for the anniversary
00:52:21What about doing a live version of the podcast?
00:52:25Live?
00:52:26You mean in front of people?
00:52:28We do it in front of people now
00:52:29Well, maybe 10 at the most
00:52:31There's going to be way more than that at the party
00:52:33You are going to be fine
00:52:34Oh, and I saw this
00:52:35And I want you two to do it
00:52:36A box race?
00:52:38Mm-hmm
00:52:38I just don't see how decorating a box
00:52:41And sliding down a hill is going to help us
00:52:42It'll show you're an active member of the community
00:52:44Sounds dangerous
00:52:45Sounds like fun to me
00:52:46Says the guy who runs around in sharp metal shoes
00:52:49Slamming into people
00:52:50Really?
00:52:51A lot
00:52:52That's your view of hockey
00:52:53Even after hitting the ass with me last night?
00:52:55What, sis?
00:52:56It's hardly the same thing
00:52:57Oh, you were a natural
00:52:58I'm sure there's some hidden sledding talents in there as well
00:53:02They would be well hidden
00:53:04You're impossible
00:53:05You're intractable
00:53:07It shouldn't be this difficult to come up with a theme
00:53:15Well, it has to be amazing
00:53:16I want to win this thing
00:53:17You are obsessed with winning
00:53:19Oh, please
00:53:19You're the most competitive person I've ever met
00:53:21I am not competitive
00:53:24At least it's not about winning, anyway
00:53:27I think I just like to be
00:53:29The smartest person in the room?
00:53:30Are you calling me a snob again?
00:53:31No, most of the time
00:53:32You probably are the smartest person in the room
00:53:34That's not being a snob
00:53:34It's just being right
00:53:35Yes, well, sometimes being right
00:53:39Does come at the expense of being liked
00:53:42Well, I'm very familiar with not being liked
00:53:45Oh, please
00:53:46You have fans, friends, relationships
00:53:49Not ones that have lasted
00:53:51Yes, but you don't really strike me as a settling down type
00:53:54I don't know
00:53:54If the right person were to come along
00:53:55Ah, yes
00:53:57The elusive right person
00:54:00Hmm
00:54:00You haven't found yours yet either, huh?
00:54:05Have you ever read a book
00:54:07That was so good
00:54:08That you just didn't ever want it to end?
00:54:11I guess I've just never really
00:54:13Met a person who made me feel the same way
00:54:16There's nothing wrong with waiting for the right boat to come along
00:54:19At least I don't think so
00:54:20Yes, well, you get hit in the head a lot
00:54:27So can we trust your opinion?
00:54:28Okay
00:54:28So, Miss Competitive
00:54:31What are we going to do to win this adventure?
00:54:35Adventure
00:54:36Tom Sawyer
00:54:40A raft
00:54:41These sleds are incredible
00:54:53And yours is fantastic
00:54:58Right?
00:54:59Ta-da
00:54:59This hill looks pretty icy
00:55:02Yeah
00:55:02Mary, are you sure you're up for this?
00:55:03Not thinking about it
00:55:04That's a cardboard box of snow-covered hill
00:55:06Even if we fall off
00:55:07I'm sure we'll survive it
00:55:08No, not happy
00:55:10No, I'll have to see your photographer
00:55:11Okay
00:55:12You don't have to do this if you're scared
00:55:18I'm not scared
00:55:19A little bit scared
00:55:22Think about something else
00:55:24Tell me what your future holds
00:55:25Right
00:55:26I want the bookstore to be a success
00:55:29Obviously
00:55:30And
00:55:30I want to travel
00:55:32You know
00:55:33I just want to go to Paris
00:55:35Or Bali
00:55:36Or
00:55:37I miss being on the road
00:55:39I don't do well if I'm the same place for too long
00:55:42Is that why you changed teams so many times?
00:55:45That and the owners of those teams
00:55:47Wanted me to be somewhere else
00:55:48Ah
00:55:49You know, chicken, egg
00:55:50Right
00:55:51Yeah
00:55:51But
00:55:53Maybe you were just breaking up with them
00:55:56Before they could break up with you
00:55:58Hmm
00:56:00Maybe
00:56:01So what else is in your future?
00:56:05Marriage
00:56:06Children
00:56:06White picket fence
00:56:07I guess that's the idea, yeah
00:56:09What about you?
00:56:12Sometimes
00:56:13I wonder what it would be like to have a son
00:56:15Or a daughter
00:56:16And I could teach how to skate
00:56:18Make sure they have a good home
00:56:20Good family
00:56:21Be a good dad
00:56:24You could be a great dad
00:56:25Think so?
00:56:28Yeah
00:56:28I mean, you're a big kid
00:56:32You'd have someone to play with
00:56:33See?
00:56:36You were almost nice to me there
00:56:38It's close
00:56:39Hey, Adam
00:56:40I'm getting good at that shawl you showed me at practice
00:56:43That's great
00:56:44I'm looking forward to seeing it
00:56:45Practice?
00:56:46Oh, yeah
00:56:46I've been helping out a little bit with the team
00:56:48He's been helping to walk with the team
00:56:49I think we might win the next game
00:56:51Cool sled
00:56:54Thanks, Noah
00:56:55Which one's yours?
00:56:57Oh
00:56:57I'm not doing it this year
00:56:59Mom didn't have time to make one
00:57:01You know, Noah
00:57:07Mary
00:57:08She's a little bit scared
00:57:10To ride down this hill
00:57:11It's very icy
00:57:13So
00:57:14Maybe you could ride with us
00:57:16Help Mary be not so scared
00:57:18Really?
00:57:19That'd be awesome
00:57:20Did you bring your helmet?
00:57:24Everybody ready?
00:57:33Oh, yeah
00:57:34You are good
00:57:41You are good
00:57:41You are good
00:57:42You are good
00:57:43You are good
00:57:44You are good
00:57:45Oh, look at all
00:57:46Yes
00:57:47No
00:57:48No
00:57:48No
00:57:48No
00:57:49No
00:57:50Wait
00:57:51No
00:57:51No
00:57:52No
00:57:53Come on, Mary
00:57:53Shark is choking
00:57:57They're doing great
00:57:58They're going pretty fast
00:58:03They're going very fast
00:58:04Wait a minute
00:58:09Watch out
00:58:10Are you guys okay?
00:58:20Yeah
00:58:21I'm going to do it again
00:58:24All right
00:58:37Last one
00:58:38All right
00:58:38I had fun today
00:58:43Thank you
00:58:44I did too
00:58:45So did Noah
00:58:46It's really nice what you did
00:58:48Well, I'm glad
00:58:49I know what it's like
00:58:50Not to have a dad around
00:58:51To do those things with
00:58:52Well, I should call Cap
00:59:00Night
00:59:05I'm a genius
00:59:23If you do say so yourself
00:59:26Well, just look at all the good press the two of you have gotten
00:59:28People are starting to love you
00:59:30Mary, aren't you starting to love him?
00:59:32What?
00:59:32No
00:59:32What do you mean?
00:59:35I mean, we wanted to improve Adam's image and get more business for the bookstore
00:59:39And we were doing both
00:59:40Even Erica's starting to come around
00:59:42I mean, get the suspension lift
00:59:43That's amazing
00:59:44Mary, isn't that amazing?
00:59:45Hmm?
00:59:46Yes
00:59:46What?
00:59:46No
00:59:47Adam getting his job back isn't amazing?
00:59:50Oh, yes
00:59:51That's
00:59:52Yes
00:59:53That's good
00:59:53That's really good
00:59:54Hey
00:59:56What's up with you today?
01:00:01Look, I'm happy that this is going so well for Adam
01:00:04I really am
01:00:05But we have a long way to go with the bookstore
01:00:08Business is up, isn't it?
01:00:11It is, but
01:00:12Not by enough
01:00:13Well, that's why we're making the 40th anniversary party this Saturday such a blowout
01:00:19We're talking, the live podcasts, games, food
01:00:22We still could use a showcase idea, but I think it's going to be a huge success
01:00:27Aren't we worried about it just being temporary?
01:00:29I mean, we could sell a ton of books that day, but how do we make it last?
01:00:32Sales aren't the only thing that we're going for
01:00:34You want to build your customer base
01:00:35Mailing list signups, podcast downloads, social media hits
01:00:39Hashtag OTSB40
01:00:41On the same page, 40th
01:00:44That's great
01:00:47It is
01:00:48But
01:00:48What?
01:00:54I was up late last night
01:00:56I just couldn't sleep
01:00:58So I was going over the numbers
01:00:59And if this party doesn't work
01:01:01If it isn't a huge success
01:01:04We have to close this door
01:01:09So how come you didn't tell me how bad things are at the store?
01:01:25You have your own problems
01:01:26I didn't, I didn't know if you'd care
01:01:28Of course I care
01:01:29I mean, we're in this together, I mean
01:01:31It's embarrassing
01:01:34Oh, come on
01:01:36A few days ago you were filling yourself down a hill
01:01:39That person doesn't get embarrassed
01:01:40Yeah, but that person is also elusive
01:01:44You know, she's not always there when you need her
01:01:46We're going to figure this out
01:01:48Our number one mission is to make sure the anniversary party is a huge success
01:01:52But what about getting you back on the team?
01:01:55That'll happen, I'm not worried
01:01:56Erica's coming around
01:01:56Yeah, you guys are getting along?
01:01:59Eh, sort of
01:02:00Let's just say
01:02:01I don't feel the need to search our hands for weapons when we meet anymore
01:02:04Check my hands?
01:02:07Constantly
01:02:07I'm a little nervous about that statement
01:02:09You should be
01:02:09Don't think there's a safety
01:02:11Why don't you and I go for dinner tonight?
01:02:15We can try to come up with that showcase idea
01:02:17And talk about the live podcast
01:02:19You're not still nervous about doing that, are you?
01:02:22Get up in front of dozens of strangers
01:02:24We just talk
01:02:26No
01:02:26Why would I be nervous?
01:02:29The only thing that makes it even a little bit okay
01:02:32Is knowing that you and Tyler are going to be up there with me
01:02:36I promise
01:02:37We'll come up with something brilliant
01:02:38So, dinner?
01:02:42Yeah
01:02:43That would be
01:02:44That would be great
01:02:45Alright
01:02:46You're going out for dinner with her?
01:02:48I thought you said you didn't like her
01:02:49I don't not like her
01:02:50It just drives me crazy
01:02:53Oh, here we go
01:02:54What?
01:02:55That's even worse than to say she's not that bad
01:02:57And I've heard you say those exact words before
01:02:59So, what usually comes next
01:03:03Is a completely unhealthy relationship
01:03:05With someone you definitely shouldn't be with
01:03:07And then it ends in yelling and in tears
01:03:09A lot of tears
01:03:11That's not true
01:03:13Victoria, Danielle
01:03:15Okay, well, maybe I've changed
01:03:16You're the one that keeps telling me to grow up
01:03:18That doesn't happen overnight
01:03:19Unless
01:03:20Unless she is your soulmate
01:03:23And she's performed a miracle on you
01:03:25Is that what happened?
01:03:27It's just a dinner
01:03:28We're just going to talk about the anniversary party
01:03:31It's totally innocent
01:03:32I've heard those words before, too
01:03:33Erica
01:03:34No, Erica was different
01:03:36Oh, Erica, right behind you
01:03:37Adam
01:03:41Can I see you in my office?
01:03:44Now?
01:03:46I've got a dinner meeting
01:03:47Yes, it's important
01:03:48Okay
01:03:50Just let me make a quick call and change first
01:03:53I'm sure it's fine
01:03:58Hello?
01:04:11Mary, hi
01:04:13It's Adam
01:04:14Oh, hi
01:04:14Are you on your way?
01:04:16Uh, no
01:04:17I just got called into a meeting with Erica
01:04:19Erica?
01:04:22Is everything okay?
01:04:23I don't know
01:04:23But I'm not sure how long it's going to take
01:04:25So I didn't want to leave you hanging
01:04:26Oh
01:04:28Uh
01:04:29All right
01:04:30Well, um
01:04:31Don't worry about it
01:04:32We can
01:04:33We can just do it another night
01:04:34We don't need to cancel
01:04:35Just
01:04:35It's not a big deal
01:04:37It's fine
01:04:38Well
01:04:40Okay
01:04:41I'm really sorry
01:04:42We'll talk tomorrow
01:04:44Of course
01:04:45Bye
01:04:47Bye
01:04:47What's going on?
01:05:02I wanted to talk to you about getting you back on the team
01:05:05Really?
01:05:07Really
01:05:07Erica, that's amazing
01:05:09It's fantastic
01:05:10Thank you
01:05:10Don't get too excited
01:05:12There are a few conditions
01:05:15Name them
01:05:16It's probationary
01:05:17One wrong step
01:05:18And you have to serve out the rest of your suspension
01:05:20Got it
01:05:21Walk in the straight and narrow
01:05:22It's a deal
01:05:23And we are throwing a party for the VIP ticket holders
01:05:26The press will be there
01:05:27So will my father
01:05:29You'll have to get up in front of all those people
01:05:32And apologize for your behavior
01:05:34Easy
01:05:35Sorry I'm a jerk
01:05:37Done
01:05:37Adam
01:05:38You have to take this seriously
01:05:41You need to eat a little crow
01:05:43And then we'll get you back on the team
01:05:45I can do that
01:05:48You can take it serious, I promise
01:05:51When is it?
01:05:53Saturday
01:05:54Wait, this Saturday?
01:05:58Mm-hmm
01:05:58I can't
01:05:59That's the night of the bookstore's 40th anniversary
01:06:02Well, you'll have to miss it
01:06:03I can't
01:06:04I'm emceeing the auction
01:06:05I'm signing autographs
01:06:06I'm doing a live book chat with Mary
01:06:08Adam, what's more important to you?
01:06:11This bookstore or your career?
01:06:17I'll see you Saturday
01:06:19So
01:06:36So, Mary, we're really excited about the party Saturday night.
01:06:54Yeah.
01:06:55It's going to be great for the big bookstore.
01:06:57I hope so, yeah.
01:07:00Okay.
01:07:06What is it?
01:07:08What do you mean?
01:07:12You haven't said more than ten words.
01:07:14Usually you've said more than ten words before you come in the door.
01:07:17You're right.
01:07:18I have had a lot on my mind, but everything is fine.
01:07:24Okay, Tyler.
01:07:26Snoo.
01:07:27No.
01:07:28We don't need to drag me into this.
01:07:29Hey.
01:07:30It's a family dinner.
01:07:31You were dragged into it by being born.
01:07:36The truth is there is a lot riding on this anniversary party.
01:07:53If it doesn't work, we will have to close the store.
01:07:56Oh, Mary.
01:07:58Mary.
01:07:59This is not your fault.
01:08:02The store was struggling when we retired.
01:08:05We even thought about closing it to save you from having to deal with the responsibility.
01:08:10We knew it was going to happen at some point.
01:08:12But I didn't.
01:08:13I mean, on the same page is not just a responsibility.
01:08:18It's our family.
01:08:20No.
01:08:21No.
01:08:22This is our family.
01:08:23Right here.
01:08:24And we will be here.
01:08:25And we will be here even if the bookstore isn't sweetheart.
01:08:31So you're not mad.
01:08:32How could we be mad at you?
01:08:33Well, we're not done trying yet.
01:08:34And the anniversary party could still work.
01:08:35Yeah, and Adam's helping out, right?
01:08:36I don't want to have to count on him.
01:08:37I don't want to have to count on him.
01:08:38I don't want to have to count on him.
01:08:39Hey.
01:08:40Hey.
01:08:41Hey, Adam.
01:08:42What are you doing here?
01:08:43What are you doing here?
01:08:44Hey.
01:08:45Hey.
01:08:46Hey, Adam.
01:08:47What are you doing here?
01:08:48I don't want to have to count on him.
01:08:50Hey.
01:08:51Hey.
01:08:52Hey.
01:08:53Hey.
01:08:54Hey.
01:08:55Hey.
01:08:59Hey.
01:09:00Hey, Adam.
01:09:01Hey, hey.
01:09:06Hey.
01:09:09Hey.
01:09:10Hey.
01:09:11I was looking for Mary. I tried to call her.
01:09:14Oh, yeah, no, she went down to City Hall
01:09:15to get the permit for tomorrow night's Winterfest party.
01:09:18Well, when you see her, will you let her know?
01:09:20I really need to talk to her, please.
01:09:22Sure. Thanks.
01:09:25Adam...
01:09:28you've come a long way, you know.
01:09:32How so?
01:09:34You've faced a lot of challenges in your life.
01:09:38You're a good man.
01:09:40And you've made such a positive impact on Mary.
01:09:43This bookstore, this is her entire world.
01:09:48Has been since she was a little kid.
01:09:51And sometimes she forgets there's a whole other world out there.
01:09:54But these last few weeks, she's been out having fun,
01:09:58taking chances.
01:10:00Yeah, but a lot of the stuff we did was because Janet told us to.
01:10:05And you had no say in the matter, huh?
01:10:08Come on, Adam.
01:10:10Mary wouldn't have done all those things if she didn't want to.
01:10:14And she certainly wouldn't have done it alone.
01:10:19You have made an impact, son.
01:10:22Whether you intended to or not.
01:10:25You're pretty good with the impact yourself.
01:10:28Yeah.
01:10:30And I'd do it without a helmet.
01:10:32Thanks, Paul.
01:10:35Okay.
01:10:37So, I watched the game on TV last night.
01:10:53I think it's possible that number 16 is not getting enough contact with the ice before he shoots.
01:11:00Now you're a hockey expert?
01:11:03I think I bring a fresh academic perspective, yes.
01:11:06Because that's what you want when you've got a bunch of huge guys coming at you as an academic perspective.
01:11:10Well, I think there's room for a lot more than hit with stick now.
01:11:13You're impossible.
01:11:14You're intractable.
01:11:15So, why did you ask me to meet you here?
01:11:26This place?
01:11:28It's my home.
01:11:31And I really missed it, but...
01:11:33But?
01:11:34But what?
01:11:35How was it?
01:11:37The team is hosting a big VIP event, and they want me to attend as a condition for taking me back.
01:11:43It's great.
01:11:45What's the problem?
01:11:46It's tomorrow night.
01:11:59You have to do it.
01:12:01What about the anniversary party?
01:12:03Adam, it's your career.
01:12:05It's what you've been doing all night before.
01:12:07I'm all over the advertising for the party.
01:12:11I'm a big part of the event if I don't show.
01:12:13What?
01:12:14So now you're so important that it can't go on without you?
01:12:21I know what you're trying to do.
01:12:24You're trying to make me mad so I won't look away from the party.
01:12:28You cannot pass up the opportunity to get back on the team.
01:12:37To get back on the road.
01:12:39That's where all this leads anyway.
01:12:53And yes, the anniversary party might not work without you, but that's okay.
01:13:00I think it's time for me to succeed or fail on my own.
01:13:09But you shouldn't have to.
01:13:13I got suspended because I wasn't a good team player.
01:13:17But you and I, we're a team now too, right?
01:13:19The best.
01:13:24But sometimes being a good team player means knowing when to let the other guy take the shot.
01:13:29I think you're right around.
01:13:39We'll be right back on your way and look around the island.
01:13:43All right.
01:13:45Well, look.
01:14:15She was sent from the room in London, England.
01:14:19London, England. That's quite a ways away.
01:14:21Right?
01:14:24So?
01:14:25So?
01:14:26This is incredible. I mean, just look at all these people.
01:14:29We have sold more books tonight than we have in the past six months.
01:14:33But even more important, you're building a customer base.
01:14:35Right.
01:14:36Between the must-read list and the photo shares and the podcast downloads.
01:14:40Mary, here's a statement I never thought I'd say.
01:14:43You're trending on social media.
01:14:47What does that mean?
01:14:49Trust me, it's good.
01:14:51Okay.
01:14:53Hey, Miss Campbell.
01:14:54Oh, hey, Noah.
01:14:55Where's Adam?
01:15:00You know what?
01:15:01He's not gonna be able to make it tonight. I'm sorry.
01:15:04Oh.
01:15:05But, hey, how about I take a picture of the two of you to send to him?
01:15:09I bet he'd love it.
01:15:10Is that okay?
01:15:11Okay.
01:15:12All right. All right.
01:15:15And... cheese.
01:15:18Perfect.
01:15:21Where do I put my old book?
01:15:22Oh, just out front.
01:15:23Just out front.
01:15:24And you'll get a coupon you can give to your mom for your 20% off, okay?
01:15:27Great.
01:15:28Thanks.
01:15:32I know.
01:15:35I do love the book exchange idea, though.
01:15:37I mean, give a book to the library, get a discount on a new one.
01:15:40That is a showcase idea.
01:15:43Oh, that's not the showcase idea.
01:15:46Adam took care of that.
01:15:55He was gonna tell himself tonight, but since he's not here...
01:16:07It's so nice, but I don't get it.
01:16:10Look on the other side.
01:16:15Oh.
01:16:19That's lovely.
01:16:20So, what, he had these made up for the anniversary party?
01:16:22No.
01:16:23He had 20,000 made for the Royals' next home game.
01:16:27On the same page is the official sponsor of the fan giveaway,
01:16:31and he's made sure that the bookstore will be featured throughout the game
01:16:34and during its telecast.
01:16:41That's incredibly generous.
01:16:45I'm still smiling. I can't feel my face anymore.
01:16:46You're doing fine.
01:16:47No sign of the item that argues with referees.
01:16:48Well, I hope he's gone for good.
01:16:50I hope so, too.
01:16:52I'm getting positive feedback. My father is pleased.
01:16:54That's how your father looks when he's pleased?
01:16:58Yeah.
01:16:59He made report card time very confusing as a kid.
01:17:00Circulate.
01:17:01We'll circulate.
01:17:02All right.
01:17:03Thank you for being here.
01:17:04Of course.
01:17:05No sign of the item that argues with referees.
01:17:06No sign of the item that argues with referees.
01:17:07No sign of the item that argues with referees.
01:17:08Well, I hope he's gone for good.
01:17:09I hope so, too.
01:17:10I'm getting positive feedback.
01:17:11My father is pleased.
01:17:12That's how your father looks when he's pleased?
01:17:13Yeah.
01:17:14He made report card time very confusing as a kid.
01:17:18Circulate.
01:17:20We'll circulate.
01:17:21All right.
01:17:25Thank you for being here.
01:17:27Of course.
01:17:29Part of being a team player.
01:17:47Oh, man.
01:17:55Pretty impressive.
01:17:57We're gonna start the book chat shortly.
01:17:59You ready?
01:18:00I'm nervous.
01:18:01What do I always tell you?
01:18:02You're not nervous.
01:18:03You care.
01:18:04You're right.
01:18:05Right.
01:18:06I care a lot.
01:18:08But, you know, there's also a part of me that
01:18:10kinda can't wait to get out there, and I can do this.
01:18:14I think I'm gonna lead this one.
01:18:16What?
01:18:17Who are you, and what have you done with my sister?
01:18:19I'll tell you who she is.
01:18:21She's somebody who should be very proud of what she's accomplished.
01:18:25Dad.
01:18:28Thanks, Dad.
01:18:29Yeah.
01:18:33You know, I think on the same page, Jess might make it after all.
01:18:37I'm not talking about the store.
01:18:39I'd like to introduce one of our best players, and certainly one of our most colorful.
01:18:51But he's worked hard in the last month, and I think you've seen the results of that in the press.
01:18:56I personally have seen how he's changed for the better.
01:19:01Ladies and gentlemen, Adam Claiborne.
01:19:04Thank you, everyone, for coming out to support the 40th anniversary of On The Same Page.
01:19:17I am thrilled to introduce one of the owners and the driving force behind why we're all here tonight, Mary Campbell.
01:19:29There are a bunch of things I'm sorry about.
01:19:42My past behavior is one.
01:19:44It affected the team and my overall image within the community.
01:19:50I'm doing my best to fix that.
01:19:52On The Same Page has been here for 40 years.
01:20:00I must say, I'm realizing that being part of a community, being part of a team, it's about more than just being present.
01:20:09I'm proud of this team.
01:20:11And I'm proud to be a member of it.
01:20:14I think I forgot for a while what real teamwork looked like.
01:20:18I always say that the entire world is right there in that bookstore.
01:20:23And sometimes I think I do forget that the entire world is out there, too.
01:20:28Erica said that she thinks I've changed for the better.
01:20:32I hope that's true.
01:20:34I think it is.
01:20:41As much as I love this game, I've realized now it's also really important.
01:20:50So please excuse me, but I have to go get it.
01:20:56If you leave, I don't know if my father will forgive you.
01:21:11If I don't leave, I won't be able to forgive myself.
01:21:13You're risking your entire career.
01:21:15Well, I hope that I'll be able to prove to some other team that I am that better person I've been trying to be.
01:21:23That is if I can't convince you first.
01:21:30Let's talk about this Monday.
01:21:32You're gonna be late.
01:21:39For the record, you broke up with me.
01:21:47I have been having the close-to-home kind of adventures.
01:21:53They haven't all gone well.
01:21:55But as someone very smart once told me,
01:22:01it doesn't matter how many times you fall down.
01:22:04It only matters how many times you get back up again.
01:22:08It is in that spirit of adventure that I would like to kick off tonight's book chat.
01:22:14How many of you have read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer?
01:22:18Oh, good.
01:22:20I am so glad because this is one of my very favorite books.
01:22:26You say that about every book.
01:22:35What are you doing here?
01:22:36You just came to chat about a book.
01:22:39What about getting back on the team and...
01:22:41Maybe it's time I start thinking about what's next.
01:22:43Because apparently I come up with really incredible business ideas.
01:22:49Really?
01:22:50I'm quite good at it.
01:22:51Mmm.
01:22:52In fact, most of this party here was my idea.
01:22:57Why don't we just talk about the book?
01:23:00That's a great idea.
01:23:03Because this is a story I don't want to end.
01:23:07Me neither.
01:23:13Why don't we pity the love of this?
01:23:15I don't want to die.
01:23:17I like it, too, I think.
01:23:38My name is Jonathan Babu.
