00:54Property but they said I'm property. Yeah, what does that even mean like you're a thing what like garbage or
01:00a piece of shit?
01:01Well, I mean maybe more like a hammer or an orange, but yeah

01:09calling it property
01:11Bullshit better ask my ancestors

01:46labor department
01:48I can't legally keep you on as an employee because I've been informed that you're technically technically not a person.
01:54Yeah, Jesus Christ

02:32Dear Ted the state of Massachusetts regrets to inform you that due to an oversight regarding your legal status
02:39Your marriage to Tammy Lynn McCafferty. It's unrecognized by the state and therefore invalid and hereby annulled
02:48Daddy can they do this to us? Let me see that
02:55This is a nightmare
03:00You fucking believe that no this is insane me Tammy's the woman I love
03:05You know, I never would even have tried to adopt a dog if I don't know it was gonna cause
03:09me this kind of shit storm
03:10This whole thing is complete bullshit. No, you ask me. We got to fight it. What do you mean? I
03:15mean we get a lawyer
03:17Oh my god, can we do that? Hell, yeah, you know, we do we'll get a lawyer and we'll sue
03:21the fucking government for your civil rights
03:22Johnny, that's a great idea
03:25Hey, hey, maybe we get one of them Harrison Ford lawyers who gets shot in the head and then turns
03:28all retarded nice and goes
03:29What we're doing is wrong. Yes, you know what we get out there. We stick it to him good
03:33We'll take that shit all the way up to judge Judy if we have to yeah, but we don't know
03:37any lawyers all our friends make sandwiches
03:39Oh, we just Google Boston lawyers
03:40Yeah
03:43She's look at that black hawk
04:06This is a very complicated case you have here
04:10Most civil rights cases are but this one has some very obvious wrinkles
04:14Well, everybody says you're the best in town
04:17Listen, your case is not gonna be cheap. What is your financial situation?
04:23Uh, well all of our holdings are tied up in the railroads. Yeah, Redding Railroad, B&O Railroad, Pennsylvania Railroad
04:28We're working on short line. Um, I own Atlantic Avenue and Marvin Gardens
04:31And I own four houses on Baltic Ave. I was thinking about just tearing them down and building a hotel
04:35I won second prize in a beauty contest. That's $50 right there. Are you guys just saying Monopoly stuff?
04:40Tell you what, I'm gonna go drive around the block and I'll be back with $200
04:43I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
04:45My niece recently passed her bar exam and I've hired her on as a junior associate here at the firm
04:51I could assign her to your case pro bono
04:53And then you would get a hungry young attorney and I would get a more experienced lawyer in return
04:58So what do you say to that?
05:00Yeah, sure. Sounds great
05:02Um, are those high candies, like, just to take?
05:06Uh, those aren't supposed to be out
05:15Hello?
05:20Oh, fuck
05:23Hi
05:23You okay?
05:24Yeah, I'm fine. You must be Ted
05:28Yeah, uh, I'm Ted. This is my buddy John
05:30Hi
05:31Uh, my uncle says that you guys are my first clients
05:35Uh, well, it's been discussed, but, um, do you mind if I ask how old you are?
05:40I'm 26
05:42Ah
05:43What, is there a problem?
05:45Well, you know, I just don't want my lawyer singing Frozen songs during the opening arguments
05:49You know, it's just, this is a really important case
05:50I mean, Ted has already lost his job, his marriage has been annulled
05:53I know, my uncle, my uncle gave me all the details
05:55Right, but see, the thing is, you know, we don't want to take any chances because the stakes are so
05:59significant
05:59Yeah, I mean, we can't just rush in anything
06:01We've got to make sure we're making the right decisions
06:02Yeah, we really appreciate your time
06:04But I think what we're probably going to do is just take a seat and get to work
06:07We trust you completely
06:07Yeah, we really feel like you've got a lot to offer
06:12Sorry, you don't mind the pot, do you?
06:14I get migraines
06:15Oh, absolutely, me too
06:16Yeah, I'm going to get a huge migraine in the parking lot in about 20 minutes
06:19Oh, I'm Samantha Jackson
06:21Ted, how are you?
06:23Good to meet you
06:24Joe
06:24Nice to meet you
06:25Wait, wait, wait, what's your middle name?
06:27Leslie
06:28Oh my God
06:29So you're Sam L. Jackson
06:31That's fucking great, just like Sam L. Jackson
06:33Who is that?
06:35You ever seen any movie ever?
06:36He's the black guy
06:40That weed is really good
06:41It reminds me of the strain I smoked last summer called Here Comes Autism
06:45Yeah, I was just going to say, it's sort of like this other batch we had called How Long Has
06:48That Van Been There?
06:50No, it's this news stream my dealer gave me called Help Me Get Home
06:53You know, I'm surprised a lawyer like you gets high
06:55I mean, aren't you supposed to be fighting the war on drugs and all that shit?
06:58Please, the war on drugs is a joke
07:00It's just a way for the government to inflate law enforcement budgets
07:03And lock up minorities for no good legal reason
07:06And you, my friend, are an oppressed minority
07:09Yeah, no shit
07:10They've denied you the same rights as everybody else just because you're different
07:14And I say that's a violation of the Constitution
07:17So, what do you say? Can you get me my life back?
07:23I'm gonna try
07:25Hey, guys
07:27I'm having some trouble over here
07:29What's the matter?
07:31Can you help me get home?
07:34I'm having a really hard time here, guys
07:36Johnny, it's okay, buddy, it's okay
07:37You're doing fine, you're doing great
07:39I know, I know, come on, it's okay
07:41It's okay, though, you just have to hang on to the wall
07:44Don't let them go get me
07:46How far away do you live?
07:48About a mile and a half
07:49Oh, fuck, okay

08:12And Freddy versus Jason
08:13I got the Ernest goes to camp

08:18Which was very disappointing

10:44That's just like me
10:45That's exactly what I'm going through
10:47Well, it's a little different
10:49You know, Ted, if you legally become a person

11:18Just because you're singing a song I don't know
11:20You don't know Samuel L. Jackson
11:22You don't know Rocky
11:23You are literally pop culture illiterate
11:25I have a college degree
11:26My pop culture references are Hamlet, Achilles, and Dorian Gray
11:29Ever heard of any of them?
11:30No, but I'm pretty sure Mr. T could kick their ass
11:33Yeah, Sam, you really need to be educated
11:34Oh, really?
11:36Um, can either of you tell me who wrote The Great Gatsby?
11:40Jody Blum?
11:40Hitler?
11:41F. Scott Fitzgerald

11:44Well, why are you saying fuck him?
11:46What?
11:47You just said F. Scott Fitzgerald
11:48What did Scott Fitzgerald do to you?
11:50Yeah
11:50No, that's his first name
11:52His name's Fuck Scott Fitzgerald?
11:54What? No!
11:55Well, then what's the F stand for?
11:57Francis
11:57No, it's gotta be Fuck
11:59It must be Fuck
11:59It's gotta be Fuck
12:00It has to be Fuck

12:08You guys are idiots
12:09Yeah, well, whatever
12:10Ted Kleberlang
12:11Get used to it
12:18Yes
12:21Sir?
12:23Um, what if the janitors would like to see you?
12:26I'm busy
12:27Fresh cakes
12:30What is it, Danny?
12:31Uh, Donnie, sir
12:32Well, Donnie, I'm extremely busy with the Comic-Con presentation, so
12:36I'm told that you have an open-door policy here at Hasbro for new toy ideas from any and all
12:40employees
12:42Yeah, I suppose that's true
12:45All right, come in
12:46Okay
12:48Thank you
12:49Hey, I love your dress
12:56Mr. Jessa, I can make this company a billion dollars
13:00I'm listening
13:03Thirty years ago, a little boy named John Bennett made a wish that his teddy bear would come to life
13:09Somehow, one of our Hasbro bears
13:11Yes, I'm aware of the story
13:15Have you seen this?
13:22So what?
13:23Well, Ted is suing for his civil rights
13:26If he loses
13:27If he loses, the state will officially declare him a non-entity with no rights under the law
13:32That means he becomes property
13:35Mr. Jessa
13:37We could take him back with only a trivial degree of legal consequence if we were even caught
13:43And why would we do this?
13:45Sir, if we could cut him open to see what makes him tick
13:50We could manufacture millions of Ted's for every child in the world
13:54Hasbro would double its profits overnight
13:58Go on
13:59We just have to make sure Ted loses the case
14:02You use every back channel, every bribe
14:05You call in every favor
14:07And you get the best lawyer in the world on the defense
14:11When Ted's rights are officially null
14:16We grab him
14:19No one's going to kick up a legal fuss over property
14:23You're a hell of a lot smarter than your urinal cakes, Danny
14:26Really?
14:28Now, what exactly do you want from this?
14:31Mr. Jessa, I'm not interested in money
14:36I just want a Ted for my very own
14:39All right
14:40I think I can handle the defense
14:43But let's make one thing clear
14:45We never had this conversation
14:47Goldner and the board cannot know about this until we have him
14:51Do you understand?
14:53Yes, I do
14:57I need Shep Wilde
14:59Wilde
14:59Wilde
14:59Wilde
14:59Wilde
14:59Wilde
