20:42And a Diet Pepsi.
20:44Thanks.
20:48We could take a cab home.
20:50Don't tell me you don't need a drink, because you need a drink.
20:52I don't need a drink.
20:53You need a drink.
20:55I don't need a drink.
20:56I call bullshit on that.
20:58I need sleep. That's what I need.
21:00Hey, cheers to the best tour yet.
21:04You leave me hanging here?
21:05I do not clean buses with fucking Diet Pepsi.
21:08Best book tour. What is that?
21:11Is that like the stomach cancer?
21:13You endure it. You do not toast it.
21:15Oh, how I hate all those paying customers showering me with love and respect.
21:19And why do I have to make so much money?
21:22How do you bear it?
21:32Bunch of dummies.
21:34Wow.
21:35It's a ship that sells on sand?
21:38Purple sand?
21:39That is, uh, that's brilliant.
21:41The world needed that.
21:43And the world needed yet another female character who spends all her time mooning over some fucking proud and haughty
21:49pirate.
21:49He's a Corsair, not a pirate.
21:52Mm.
21:53Mandovian Spicefruit.
21:56Jesus, that...
21:57It's like a bad episode of Star Trek.
21:59All right, so how about you throw everybody a change-up?
22:01Hmm?
22:02Green sand?
22:03Is that a purple?
22:05Maybe it's time for your serious book.
22:09Why not?
22:09You've been plugging away on it for five years.
22:12Four and a half, barely.
22:14Pardon me.
22:14So put it out already.
22:15I can't just...
22:18It needs polishing.
22:21Obviously, I mean, it does, right?
22:22But, okay, take the next few months and polish.
22:25I'll work it out.
22:26I'll buy you some more time before your next Viacaro.
22:30You really think bitter chrysalis is that good?
22:35I think people will love it.
22:42You ever read, um, Finnegan's Wake?
22:44No.
22:46I tried, too.
22:47In grad school.
22:51It's probably great.
22:53I don't know.
22:55All I know is it made me miserable trying to get through it.
23:01I figure you make even one person happy.
23:06Maybe that's not art.
23:09It's something.
23:16To Ravon.
23:19Proud, haughty Ravon.
23:29Did you bring your cigarettes?
23:31Since when do you smoke?
23:33Since now?
23:34Made my rise all over the town.
23:38When I were born.
23:41And everybody's like to have what I got.
23:44Keep rolling down this door to the bottom.
23:47It's what you find me here.
23:49That's my name.
23:55Are you trying to start a forest fire?
23:57Stop wasting my butane.
24:00Stop telling me how to smoke.
24:02I used to smoke in middle school.
24:04You know, you're supposed to light the other person's cigarette first, by the way.
24:06That's etiquette.
24:07Yeah?
24:07On a plane, do you put your own oxygen mask on first?
24:13Ooh.
24:14You're gonna hear it.
24:15Houston Mom, 78, says about Blood Song.
24:18Best Waikaro ever!
24:19All caps.
24:20And, uh...
24:2416, 17!
24:25No!
24:25Wow.
24:26Is that a new record?
24:27It's gotta be.
24:28Spoiler alert.
24:29Rabanne is back.
24:30And yummier than ever.
24:31Yummier than ever.
24:32Think she means?
24:33Mm-mm.
24:34You better belief he's got my permission to come aboard.
24:37I'd walk his plank any time.
24:39I'm sensing a nautical motif.
24:41Little bit.
24:41Think Houston Mom's off for meds again?
24:43I think Houston Mom would spread her legs for a grilled cheese sandwich.
24:48Huh.
24:51Look at that.
24:53What?
24:55What do you think they're doing?
24:57What do you think they're doing?
24:58What's what doing?
24:58The planes.
24:59Look.
25:03I don't know.
25:04Was that weird?
25:05Yeah, it's weird.
25:06Isn't it?
25:07All of them kind of parallel like that?
25:10Huh.
25:10I don't know.
25:22Anybody else weigh in?
25:24That's all the usual suspects.
25:26Plus a few new ones.
25:28Everybody loves it.
25:40You want to answer a few questions for them?
25:43What now?
25:44No, no, no.
25:45Do a quick one.
25:45Let them know you're paying attention.
25:48Carol, my husband says Rabanne can be my hall pass, which I don't think is fair since Rabanne's not a
25:53real live person, although I wish he was.
25:55In real life, was there an actual man you were thinking of when you came up with Rabanne?
26:01That's hilarious.
26:05You want to tell the truth?
26:09What do you have to lose?
26:13Put down George Clooney.
26:15What?
26:16What's wrong with him?
26:17Nothing.
26:18Just...
26:18I mean, how about a hot Brazilian soccer player?
26:21Someone with dreadlocks.
26:22Hip it up.
26:24Just...
26:25Put George Clooney.
26:27It's safer.
26:34Shit!
26:49Oh.
26:56Buddy, you...
26:57You okay, buddy?
27:05Oh, Jesus.
27:06Oh, my God, I'm just...
27:17Helen, should we call someone?
27:22Helen!
27:23Helen, stop looking at the God damn fu...
27:36Helen?
27:40Oh, my God, Helen?
27:44Helen?
27:46Helen?
27:50Help! Somebody help us!
27:54Help!
27:56Just hang in there.
27:57Just hang in there.
28:06Oh, my God!
28:37Help me.
28:39Oh, my God!
28:46Oh, my God!
28:59Oh, my God!
29:00Oh, my God!

29:06I can't.

29:27He freed the OKL它, the police emergency number.
29:30Please remain on the line, an operator will be moved you
29:34shortly.
29:34Be free from the Albuquerque.
29:37The numbers are hearing on the lines that operate on the loop.

32:32Oh, thank God.
32:35Oh, thank God.
32:38Oh, my God.

35:20Okay, there we go.
35:25Helen?
35:27Helen?
35:28Helen!
35:30Helen?
35:37Hi.
35:39Hi.
35:47Hi baby.

38:20Hey.
38:29What?
38:31What is happening?
38:49Hey, hey.
38:50Don't touch her.
38:51You put her down.
38:52Put her down.
38:53Get out.
38:54Go away.
38:59What the hell is wrong with you people?
39:02We just want to help Carol.
39:09No.
39:18No.
39:24No.
39:26No.
39:31No.
39:34No.
39:36No.
39:37No.
39:39No.
39:42No.
39:44No.
39:46No.
39:53No.
40:04No.
40:06No.
40:08No.
40:14No.
40:16No.
40:17No.
40:18I don't know.
40:58I don't know.
41:25I don't know.
41:52I don't know.
42:05I don't know.
42:15I don't know.
42:20I don't know.
42:26I don't know.
42:29Oh, Christ, no.
42:48Come on, come on, come on.
42:49Come on, come on, come on.
43:06There's a spare key.
43:10We can show you.
43:11We can show you.
43:12No, no, Scott, don't, don't, don't, don't come any closer.
43:15We don't mean to scare you, Carol.
43:17You're in no danger.
43:18We really do want to help.
43:20Remember, April 2016, the last time you got locked out?
43:25You put a spare key under the flower pot.
43:27You put a spare key under the flower pot.
43:28The one on the right.
43:30Back there.
43:38There you go.
43:46Leave me alone.
43:47I don't want to...
43:48I don't want to...
43:49Please.
43:49Sure, Carol.
43:50Just give us a couple of minutes to clear out.
44:03The other one needs somewhere.
44:06Your mom is curing time.
44:06Your mom is curing time for you.
44:07Not you.
44:18Is this the only right thing?
44:30We're very sorry for your loss.
45:19We're very sorry for your loss.
45:48We're very sorry for your loss.
46:01We're very sorry for your loss.
46:47We're very sorry for your loss.
47:04We're very sorry for your loss.
47:43We're very sorry for your loss.
48:21We're very sorry for your loss.
48:45We're very sorry for your loss.
48:52Yep.
48:55This must be so bewildering for you, so terrible, all the death and destruction you witnessed tonight, especially Helen's passing.
49:04Please know, none of that was intentional.
49:06You have our deepest condolences.
49:09And to say it again, you are in no danger.
49:11You are perfectly safe.
49:14Okay.
49:15Okay.
49:15Your life is your own.
49:17Please know that.
49:18Your well-being is of utmost importance to us.
49:22Okay.
49:24Completely up to you, of course, but you might want to stick close to home for the next few days.
49:28We have a lot to clean up.
49:30We have a lot to clean up, and it may be distressing for you to see, but we will put
49:34things right to that end if we may be of assistance with Helen's remains.
49:39Nope.
49:40Okay.
49:41If we can help you in any way, please let us know.
49:44We can deliver food, medicine, whatever you need.
49:48Just dial zero, day or night.
49:50You will want to call from a landline as all the cellular networks are down, but we are here for
49:56you.
50:00We feel like we're doing all the talking here.
50:04Are there any questions you might have for us, Carol?
50:07Anything at all?
50:11Uh, uh, yeah.
50:15Yeah, sure.
50:17I guess to start with, what the fuck is happening?
50:23Well, basically...
50:24It's an alien invasion, right?
50:26I mean, obviously, it's an alien invasion.
50:28Actually, no, it is not.
50:30Oh, the fuck it isn't?
50:31You know my name.
50:33You know Helen's name.
50:36You are talking to me from my TV.
50:39And what the fuck is with everybody's shit like this and those two weird, the weird, the weird neighbor kids.
50:47And next door, they know we're some goddamn...
50:51How, how would they know that, huh?
50:53Are you reading my mind?
50:55No, absolutely not.
50:57We couldn't do that if we wanted to.
50:59Who is we?
50:59Why is everybody suddenly we?
51:01You know, we could continue this after you've had a good night's sleep.
51:04Who is we?
51:06We is us.
51:08Just us.
51:09Who the fuck is us?
51:10Us.
51:10There are no aliens.
51:13None on this planet.
51:14We are, however, beneficiaries of extraterrestrial technology.
51:20Fourteen months ago, astronomers discovered a radio signal from 600 light years away.
51:25There's no telling how long it's been repeating, maybe throughout all of human existence.
51:30This signal, it's made up of four tones, representing guanine, uracil, adenine, and cytosine.
51:39It's a recipe, it turns out, for a nucleotide sequence, RNA.
51:44A. Scientists have created this sequence in a lab.
51:49It is not a living thing, per se.
51:51It is more akin to a virus.
51:53Though it's not that exactly, either.
51:56It's kind of a psychic glue, capable of binding us all together.
52:02Okay.
52:05So, if you're not aliens, who am I talking to right now?
52:10Who are you?
52:11This particular individual, this is Davis Taffler, Undersecretary of Agriculture for Farm Production
52:18and Conservation.
52:19But you are currently talking to every person on Earth, including Davis Taffler.
52:25We're all one.
52:27How does that work?
52:29We don't know exactly.
52:31It just does.
52:34Can I talk to the president?
52:36That individual passed away this evening, unfortunately, along with quite a few senior members of the United States government.
52:43Davis Taffler happened to be nearby and intact, and he was wearing a suit.
52:49So, so, so you're in charge now, the Undersecretary of...
52:54No, nobody's in charge, or everybody's in charge.
52:58Really, there's no such thing anymore.
53:00But, but, there has got to be others like me.
53:02Your situation is a rare one.
53:05There appear to be 11 other individuals like yourself.
53:08In, in Albuquerque?
53:10No, in the world.
53:12We have reached out to them.
53:14Like you, they are disoriented, understandably.
53:19Rest assured, Carol, we will figure out what makes you different.
53:24Figure it out, why?
53:26So we can fix it.
53:28So you can join us.
53:32Oh, God.
53:37Carol?
53:38You still there?
53:43You said my life was my own.
53:46It is.
53:47One hundred percent.
53:51So what happens when I say no?
53:55Carol, once you understand how wonderful this is...
54:01Carol?
54:05Carol?
54:05Carol?
54:06Carol?
54:07Carol?
54:08Carol?
54:20You've reached 505-796-6933.
54:24We're on the French Riviera drinking champagne.
54:27We are not here in our sweatpants screening your call.
54:30Make it a good one.
54:32Carol?
54:32Carol?
54:33Hello?
54:34It's us.
54:36Hello?
54:38We're sorry we upset you, Carol.
54:40We only want to make you happy.
54:42Shut up!
54:43Shut up!
54:43Shut up!
54:43Shut up!
55:02Harmon, what?
55:04It's us.
55:06Paul?
55:13Oh, the truth.
55:18I see that the life comes from us.
55:20Until we astronaut...
