00:01I've got one year to make it all work, and that's what I'm gonna do. Make it work. All of it.
00:07This place is intimidating.
00:09You're gonna do great.
00:11Next up, Ben Chang for the role of Daniel LaRusso.
00:19Daniel-san, why you want learned karate?
00:22Hey, hang on a second. Sorry, I can do better.
00:24Zip it.
00:25Who are you?
00:27Oh, I'm Annie, a friend of Chang's.
00:29You mind coming up here and reading with your friend?
00:33Okay. If it helps.
00:42Um...
00:44Daniel-san, why you want...
00:47Okay, no, sorry. No. You read Daniel-san, you read Miyagi.
00:51Um...
00:52We'll do scene seven, Miyagi's office.
00:59Are you the repairman?
01:09Aye.
01:10The faucet's really leaky there.
01:12Aye.
01:13When you gonna fix it?
01:15After.
01:17After what?
01:19After, after.
01:21Tell everyone else to go home.
01:24We got the parts!
01:25Yeah!
01:26Here, here!
01:27Parts plural?
01:28Well, yeah, Annie got my part and, uh, got the Asian part.
01:32Chang! Stop!
01:34We were cast as Mr. Miyagi and the Karate Kid because we're a good team!
01:39We're a team because one of us is so talented she got cast outside her gender and the other one got cast because of eye shame.
01:46I am not letting you sabotage yourself like this.
01:49Let's say you're right.
01:51And like Sidney Poitier or Meg Ryan before you, you were cast for race.
01:56It's what the actor does with the role they get that matters.
02:00Alright?
02:01You're right.
02:02Alright, IT lady. How goes it?
02:06I found your problem.
02:07And?
02:12I'll need a little time to fix it.
02:14Wow! Need time to fix it? You sound just like you work in IT.
02:18I've got some interesting news. The school board offered me a position.
02:22Ooh! Great!
02:24Cool!
02:25Well, I got a part in a play and we were sort of talking about that, so read the room, Pelton.
02:31Are you gonna take the job?
02:33I don't know. There's... a catch.
02:37Jeffrey, Frankie, could I see you in my office, please?
02:41They want you to be a token homosexual?
02:44It's a form of progress.
02:46Thirty years ago, the most power the openly gay could achieve was the center square.
02:50But I'm not just gay.
02:52What does that mean?
02:53If coming out is a magic show and gayness is a rabbit out of a hat,
02:58I'm one of those never-in-need handkerchiefs.
03:01Hmm.
03:02The sad truth, Craig, anything other than straight is plenty gay for a school board.
03:08The most important point is, are you prepared to make your sexuality, which is nobody's business,
03:14an aspect of your role in society?
03:18I know I'm not, so I don't.
03:20No.
03:21When a person becomes symbolic, they gain symbolic power at the price of independent power.
03:28Yep. That's an excellent point.
03:30It could be good for Greendale, for one of our own, to be on the school board.
03:35I mean, the fact that you'd be leaving a few items off your list of turn-ons, I mean,
03:38the goal in politics isn't transparency. It's winning.
03:43That's why the politicians always win.
03:45They do always win, don't they?
03:46But now I get a chance to win.
03:48I could change the system from the inside out.
03:51And all I have to do is pare down my sexuality to simple gayness, which is heavily in the mix.
03:57There you go.
03:59Get ready, America.
04:01Dean Pelton is coming out as approximately two-sevenths of what he is.
04:09Come on.
04:10Don't leave me hanging.
04:12There we go.
04:16I am so curious.
04:18Oh.
04:19Intellectually.
04:27Poets us.
04:28Do we choose a locomotive?
04:29Do we choose?
04:30In southernοΏ½οΏ½μ€.
04:31Yes.
04:32Don't move.
04:34There are lots of Marketplace logists.
04:35Did you know, why, why really
