00:02And suddenly I just blurted it out.
00:04No, you didn't tell her the truth, Richard.
00:07Did you specifically impugn her talent?
00:11I think I might have, yes.
00:13I told her she couldn't act.
00:17Uncle!
00:19Hi, Miranda.
00:21Mr. Bean, how are you?
00:22Now, of course, Nadia will tell Boyle.
00:24Boyle will pull the plug, all this will disappear.
00:27And I will have broken Miranda's heart.
00:30No, what is, no, no, no, no, no.
00:32What I'm saying is playing Mr. and Mrs. Webb
00:36has made me realize what marriage is all about.
00:40Sameness.
00:40Oh, come on.
00:41No, no, wait, wait, no, no, no.
00:42That's too negative.
00:44Predictability.
00:45How is that any different than sameness?
00:47I miss having someone to watch TV with at the end of the night.
00:50Yes, like having somebody there to call 911 if I have a heart attack
00:53or to iron my pants.
00:55That's romantic.
00:56Oh, my God, this is why I live with a woman.
00:58And then I don't have to use an app.
01:00To, you know, hook up like the young kids do or, pardon my French, to have sex.
01:04We haven't had sex in three years.
01:06I'm so sorry.
01:07Is that even possible?
01:09What about last Easter?
01:10This is the circle of truth, Pat.
01:13I don't know what that was last Easter, but it wasn't sex.
01:16Oh, my God.
01:18I have something I want to share.
01:25But, boyhood.
01:26This is tougher than I thought it would be.
01:29You are gay.
01:30We are knowing this from before.
01:32We are not to care.
01:33Pardon me, being senior.
01:35But I've got to say something.
01:37You are wanting truth, Richard Bean?
01:40You are wanting real person?
01:41Okay.
01:42I'm giving you real person.
01:45What is real
01:48is that we are all made of the sadness.
01:51And that is what life is.
01:54So what if I live alone in basement in Novosibirsk for three years?
01:58So what if there is no mother?
02:00So what if my only joy is to be watching Richard Bean in hoist on 13-inch television set?
02:07What?
02:07We all have the problems.
02:09Being a person.
02:12That's a hard thing.
02:15So we stop crying about it.
02:17We make some art.
02:18There's a play about these happy Americans.
02:20I am not this happy American.
02:23I'm only me.
02:27I'm only me.
02:40I have an idea.
02:45No, Edna.
02:46I cannot create a curfew for cats.
02:47They're not turtles.
02:48Your daughter has turned me into a friggin' cartoon.
02:51Look at that shite.
02:52Can you hold on?
02:53I've got to call you back, Edna.
02:54I'm so sorry.
02:54Okay, bye-bye.
02:59What?
02:59What is that?
03:01My arse!
03:02Oh.
03:03Oh, I thought it was some sort of weird potato, but I see it now.
03:06Uh-huh.
03:06You know, I'm trying to save this time.
03:09Holy mother of God, I thought you were with me.
03:11No, I am with you.
03:11I am so...
03:12Connor, I am so with you.
03:14I mean, these are just kids.
03:16I mean, maybe some adults.
03:17But, you know, like I said, they're just there expressing their opinion.
03:21And, you know, good for them.
03:22It's their right.
03:22Yeah.
03:23Well, you're going to have to make it stop.
03:24You know, I do not have to remind you that the casino boat is about four days away.
03:28No, I am very aware.
03:29These fancy videos, they can sway people.
03:33I mean, how would you feel if it was your own daughter that was the cause of this whole
03:36project going arseways?
03:38Well, I'm not quite sure what that means.
03:40But listen, my daughter is her own person.
03:43She is strong-willed.
03:44Do I have to remind you, right?
03:45All the shite that I have tried to help you with.
03:48No, you don't.
03:48You know, the library, the rec center, and the friggin' organic friggin' community garden.
03:53I know.
03:53I know.
03:54And I will see what I can do.
03:56Yes.
03:57That's right.
03:58You do that.
04:00And I wish I had money coming out of me arse.
04:04Me too.
04:09Nadia.
04:10Richard Dean.
04:11I'm glad you came back.
04:13I want to apologize to you.
04:15I failed you.
04:17I failed to help you.
04:20I failed.
04:20Because I...
04:23I didn't see you clearly.
04:25You are saying this only now because you want to save the Richard Bean show.
04:29You are a weasel and a coward.
04:32Good day.
04:34A weasel?
04:35Yes, yes.
04:36And a coward?
04:37Definitely.
04:37And yes, I do want to do this show.
04:41And I'd like you to play Simon Stimson.
04:46Hmm.
04:47You want me to play the man who does his suicide?
04:51Exactly.
04:58I am thinking in the basement sometimes of ending all things.
05:06That's great.
05:07That you wanted to kill yourself?
05:09Oh, that's fantastic.
05:10I know.
05:11I mean, not in the...
05:12Obviously, in the general mental health sense.
05:15I'm talking about for the role.
05:17You understand him.
05:18You understand those feelings.
05:20You have him inside you.
05:21The Gibbs has many more lines.
05:24Yes, but...
05:27Stimson has darkness.
05:31I will do it.
05:36Vegetarian Thai curry with lemongrass and fresh ginger for you.
05:40Shrimp dumplings with saffron shallot sauce for you.
05:43Wow.
05:44Dad, what's the occasion?
05:47Oh, occasion?
05:48I just love you both very much.
05:51Everything I do is for you.
05:53You know, even when I make mistakes, it's probably because I'm trying to make things better.
06:00I'm just speaking hypothetically.
06:03Okay.
06:05I've been thinking about our discussion yesterday about Penn.
06:08You mean our fight?
06:09Just listen.
06:11How would you feel about a year in New York to do whatever you wanted?
06:16School, no school, acting, waiting tables, all of the above.
06:20You choose.
06:20Wait, what's happening?
06:21She loves New York.
06:24Maybe she should take a gap year after all.
06:26That's a fantastic idea.
06:27I love that.
06:29Mom.
06:31That would be amazing.
06:32Really, thank you.
06:34And I was hoping you would be open to just toning down the casino protests.
06:42I'm sorry, what?
06:43The vote's four days away.
06:45I think everyone's gotten the message.
06:46Are you bribing me right now?
06:48Bribing you?
06:49Yes.
06:50Bribing?
06:50You're bribing me.
06:51My own mother is bribing me.
06:53Miranda.
06:54Connor Boyle is actually, he's trying to help this town.
06:56You don't even see it.
06:58You're so underwater with it all because you took a fucking loan with the guy.
07:01Honey, honey.
07:02What?
07:03Dad, please tell me you're not voting pro-casino on Friday.
07:09What?
07:09Well, you know, it's a complicated issue, honey.
07:12You know, it's not black and white.
07:14You know what you both are?
07:15Sellouts.
07:16Honey.
07:17Honey.
07:21Is there wine?
07:23You know how it is.
07:24You're 21, 22.
07:26You start making decisions and you're 70.
07:3370.
07:35No, that's not right.
07:37I'm almost 90 for Christ's sake.
07:40You've been an actor for 50 years.
07:43You've been a lawyer for 50 years.
07:44I'm not a lawyer.

07:49I know the line.
07:52And the white-haired lady.
07:55I am off book.
07:57I knew everything this morning.
08:01I'll blast it.
08:04Dad, do you want to take a break?
08:05No, no.
08:06I know the line.
08:08I know the line.
08:10She keeps beating it out of my head.
08:14Who?
08:14Look, I know that she's your mother.
08:17I know that she's only trying to help.
08:19But I have to insist on a closed rehearsal.
08:22I know that she's a girl.
08:32Jesus Christ.

10:25you know that scene in act three when emily goes back to the past of course that's the
10:29heart of the play let's start there first i wanted to ask you um it would mean a lot
10:39if richard being famous actor made a statement at the boat this week
10:43a statement of protest i'm assuming do you want a casino in millersburg
10:50when you're young uh it's easy to see things as black or white but in fact there's a there's a

11:02actor highly
11:03regarded highly acclaimed highly awarded i'm a force in the american theater on the other hand i'm
11:10insecure i don't have many real friends i i drink too much and uh i'm unpartnered what does this have
11:19to do with the casino well i'm just trying to point out that i'm a very complex person
11:25that near complex life is complex the casino complex is complex
11:33okay remind me never to get old why i just feel like when people get old they start forgetting

21:50of players
21:51because i can't

22:08in you
22:08and well i miss that well thank you
22:24must be quite a burden carrying the fate of an entire town on your shoulders
22:29i'm trying
22:33you're obviously good at it
22:44richard yes
22:46close the door
22:49you're looking for a thousand years
23:11no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
23:30Hi, everybody.
23:32And thank you for taking the time to be here today.
23:36Today, your elected city council members will vote on a building permit
23:42for Conor Boyle's proposed Luck of the Irish Casino and Entertainment Complex
23:46on the site of the Morrison Hotel.
23:51We are not Las Vegas.
23:53Just build the goddamn thing.
23:59There are a lot of strong feelings on both sides of this issue,
24:03which is good because it means you care.
24:07We care about jobs.
24:12Yes, we do.
24:14And we all care about the future of Millersburg.
24:19Look, we all know each other here, and I never in a million years thought that I would propose a
24:23casino for our town.
24:25I think some of my family were a little surprised as well.
24:29But after studying the numbers, I realized that this might be exactly what our town needs.
24:37For starters, the added tax revenue would allow us to keep the library open for more than three days a
24:43week.
24:43And we could offer our librarians a working wage.
24:48I mean, we can buy working computers for the high school.
24:52Our town is hurting.
24:55And I believe Conor Boyle's Casino is the solution we've been looking for.
25:01So, having said that, I'm going to pass it over to Mr. Pat Patterson.
25:05Pat?
25:15Ladies and gentlemen, some of you here may remember when Millersburg was a town where you could get married,
25:22start a family, and join a bowling league if you were so inclined.
25:26It was safe, comfortable, predictable, and it's gone.
25:32There are things going on at the MFT that some people say are artistic,
25:37but they are destroying the very fabric of our town.
25:41I need to ask you to stick to the issue, Pat.
25:43I'm saying it's time for something new.
25:48Conor Boyle's Casino Complex isn't just an opportunity, it's a lifeline.
26:04I have something to say.
26:06You're just a kid.
26:07Hey, I'm 18 and I have a point of view, so get over it.
26:10Hi.
26:12Mr. Patterson and the mayor seem to think that this casino will be a lifeline for this town.
26:17Well, I think a death line is more accurate.
26:22We have been handing out pamphlets with lots of facts and statistics about crime rates and falling property values.
26:30The bottom line is this.
26:32Casinos kill communities.
26:36Hey, no amount of tax revenue is going to bring back the soul of this town once it's gone,
26:41and that's exactly what's going to happen if we move forward with this project.
26:44So please, do the right thing and vote no on casino.
26:47No, no, casino!
26:49No, no, casino!
26:51No, no, casino!
26:53No, no, casino!
26:55No, no, casino!
26:57No, no, casino!
27:13The devil was lured by the devil to that particular den of iniquity known as the out-of-state casino.
27:20The devil plied this man with complimentary cocktails and all-you-can-eat hot wings,
27:26and then he led him over to the roulette table.
27:31For the devil whispered in his ear with his hot breath,
27:35Bet it all on the red.
27:41And the man gave in to temptation.
27:43Why?
27:45Because he was struggling financially, and he needed a quick fix.
27:51The devil told him all of his problems would be solved with one spin of the wheel.
27:55So he bet the farm on red, and it came up black.
28:00He lost everything.
28:04Now, we've all been tempted by the devil at one time or another.
28:08And some of us have given in.
28:12But I urge you all, as citizens of Millersburg,
28:18don't go for the quick fix.
28:21Don't risk the soul of this town.
28:23Our town on one spin of the wheel.
28:27Don't let the devil win.
28:30Not this time.
28:42If there are no further speakers, I would like to proceed.
28:48Councilman Pennick.
28:50No.
28:52Yeah, Pennick.
28:55Friends, I ask that we please remain respectful and quiet until the vote is complete.
29:02Councilman Davies.
29:03No.
29:05Councilman Mendel.
29:08Yes.
29:09Councilman Delgado.
29:12Yes.
29:13Councilman Peters.
29:15No.
29:16Councilman Bruce.
29:18Yes.
29:19The vote stands at three in favor and three opposed.
29:23Councilman Bean will cast the deciding vote.
29:37No.
29:56Say goodbye to your reign, genius.
