Everything that Zach and I sing and everything the band plays is

2:46
y'all, we do hope you like it. We
2:48
would do it if you didn't, but it's nice if you do.
2:51
Yeah, absolutely. So, from
2:53
one of those people who just shouted, who has never
2:55
seen it before, just shout out a word of
2:58
anything at all. You
3:00
say lifeguard? A lifeguard, hamburgler?
3:03
And did you have one? An
3:06
armadillo. Great. Lifeguard,
3:09
hamburgler, armadillo. It's
3:11
honestly like they've seen the show
3:13
before. Yeah. They're
3:16
like, oh, we'll just tee them up. Gosh,
3:21
I was never a lifeguard. I am
3:23
a bit of a hamburgler. I
3:26
am an armadillo. Did
3:29
you ever go to like, do you
3:31
remember your swim lesson experience? Yes. Me
3:34
too. It was a place called Anacapa
3:36
Dive Center, which has in Santa Barbara since been, I know,
3:39
it was a place where they taught
3:41
people snorkeling. It has since. Okay.
3:45
I learned to snorkel before I learned to swim. No,
3:48
but it has since I went back to
3:51
see my family. It has since been converted
3:53
into a wine bar, but the pool's still
3:55
there. Just behind the, there's like
3:57
a wine bar and then a, a. and
4:00
a door that like they say don't go
4:02
through here because there's a pool
4:04
behind you. Okay.
4:12
I mean, yeah. So
4:19
this is actually a natural orange
4:21
wine. So what you're going to
4:23
want to taste is, you
4:26
know, it's a little, it's not so funky. It's
4:28
got, yeah, it's beautiful
4:30
and sweet. Yeah. Can
4:34
I go there? No. I'm
4:37
sorry, sir. You wanted a wine
4:40
recommendation. That's not what's through that
4:42
door. Yeah, but can I go over
4:44
there? You can go over there, but not
4:46
you. This is the
4:48
wine I have for you, and
4:51
this is the wine bar loving
4:53
hell. Yes, I
4:55
did come in here looking
4:57
for a natural orange wine,
5:00
but now that I am in here, do
5:02
you know it'd be a really good time?
5:04
And I'm trying to just be falling,
5:07
and you tell me if this is
5:09
wrong. Here's what I
5:11
wanted to do all
5:13
along. Let's get
5:16
wine drunk and go blue
5:18
then. Let's
5:20
get wine drunk and
5:23
go blue then. I
5:25
didn't know it's going
5:28
in, now it's fine.
5:31
I want to go swimming in
5:34
this wine. We're
5:36
not supposed to talk about how yet
5:38
there is a blue. And
5:41
I know it affects the tannins and the cells that
5:43
I got told because it's supposed to be a white
5:45
wine bar, but
5:48
it's supposed to be a white wine
5:50
bar, and the little one's using on
5:52
the tongue. And you
5:55
say, wine be wine, but
5:57
we're not allowed through that
5:59
door. I'm not afraid of you.
6:02
I'm not afraid of you. I'm
6:05
not afraid of you.
6:08
Well that's not right. I
6:10
think that now is the
6:13
time. For you and I to
6:15
get far and far and
6:18
far and far away. But
6:20
if I don't keep
6:22
on waiting, And
6:25
if I don't get tired,
6:28
I'll lose my confidence. I'll
6:30
thrill you having your best
6:33
time. Don't you believe
6:35
in drinking wine?
6:38
Open the
6:40
door. Never
6:42
be more. Never be
6:44
more. I guess
6:46
it's kind of quiet
6:49
in here tonight. It's raining
6:51
out those out at Craftsman
6:53
Light. And there's a
6:55
big old sign on the door.
6:57
This is, do not enter, this
7:00
is a pool. What
7:02
do they have in the pool? It's
7:05
you. Don't you believe
7:07
in drinking wine? That's
7:10
how I know it's fucking
7:12
true. So let's get quiet,
7:15
girl, and don't quit it.
7:19
You are watching me now
7:21
and you're talking to me. I'm
7:24
falling, I'm lost to the
7:26
light. I'll be there
7:28
again. I guess I'm
7:31
just a cold.
7:36
And warm? Yeah, natural, and warm. Okay,
7:39
fair enough. Fair
7:41
enough. Wow.
7:45
Oh my gosh. Someone's
8:01
gone to the door. I suppose
8:05
that means we might have to guard
8:07
some lives. All
8:11
this time we've been sitting back here Peter,
8:13
just guarding our own time. But
8:18
now we must guard some lives.
8:20
Rosemary, we have both time guards and
8:23
life guides. That is true. Mostly
8:26
we're guarding time, but now we've got lives.
8:28
I will say it was
8:31
an excellent long streak of not having anyone
8:33
else in this building. Yes, I
8:35
very much like just sitting looking at the
8:38
pool, looking at the infinite
8:40
gaze of time before us, doing
8:42
a crossword. Crosswords
8:45
are hard even when you have the knowledge
8:47
of time. You
8:50
know, it's one of those jobs
8:53
that is best if you're not doing
8:55
it. If you have to do your
8:57
job, it means something's gone wrong. That's right. And
8:59
I do want to tell them, no
9:03
glass, no glass, no glass
9:05
by the pool. Yes, I don't care. Oh
9:08
shit, there's someone else in here. Oh
9:10
my gosh. Oh my gosh. Oh, hi. Those
9:15
are much, much higher than
9:17
regulation chairs. Yes, hello
9:20
down there. Hi. Yes,
9:22
hello. Have you just been in here? Yes,
9:26
we've been in here and we've been here.
9:30
And please don't make us do
9:32
more of guarding your life, no
9:34
glass on the pool deck. Well,
9:37
yeah, yeah. I mean, maybe then don't put a
9:39
pool in a wine bar. I'm sorry,
9:41
what? I said maybe then don't
9:43
put a pool in a wine bar. Oh, we didn't
9:45
put a pool in a wine bar. The wine bar put
9:48
in with a pool. Yes,
9:50
it's one of those situations where the pool is
9:53
always and has always been here. Oh
9:55
yes, sorry. And then a number of
9:57
civilizations have sort of risen and fallen.
10:00
around it. We should explain. We
10:10
believe that there was a big
10:13
old thing. Big old thing. And
10:15
the universe time is again going
10:17
with its things. The universe do
10:20
your thing. And growing time and
10:22
space through every black hole. And
10:24
that's when the
10:27
story begins to be changed. We
10:31
believe in few thoughts that
10:33
were once more important and
10:35
then new. One
10:42
more whole space. There was matter all
10:44
over the place but mostly it's dead
10:48
bones. There's never been
10:51
an instant, no breath
10:53
of human time. Where
10:55
this whole one thing's
10:57
been hidden here just
10:59
by the side. It
11:01
often has been hidden by big high
11:04
ones. But it was in the
11:06
light of the moon. This is an eternal
11:09
moon, an eternal moon.
11:15
That's right. This is an
11:17
eternal moon, an eternal
11:20
moon. No, no,
11:22
no, no, no, but I went up, down, down, down,
11:24
down, down, down, down. That's so cool. This
11:27
is an eternal moon. This is an
11:29
eternal moon. Sorry, you're saying the school
11:31
has been here since before the Greeks.
11:34
Yes. This is the school of
11:36
Mayors, this is like 70 weeks ago.
11:38
I'm just trying to get my mind around it. It's incredibly
11:40
fun. There's not a single question. It comes
11:42
to me where I would say yes
11:44
or I would say yes. I would
11:46
say yes. Any language, no matter the
11:48
time, yet it's open here and it's
11:50
always been fun. Yeah. First it's a
11:52
big man, a big man from the
11:54
start. Right. Right away. Thank you. But
12:00
like pretty early on in
12:03
the beginning of a Juno
12:05
heart, this wolf here is doing
12:07
his thing and you can take it now in reverse.
12:11
This wolf is eternal.
12:13
It's an eternal wolf.
12:15
This wolf is eternal.
12:17
It's an eternal wolf.
12:21
I can't
12:23
go very cool. No,
12:26
no, no, no, no, no.
12:35
Oh, you know what? Sorry.
12:39
It's been a while since
12:42
we told this story and something just occurred
12:44
to me. That this
12:46
is not an eternal pool. It's
12:48
a pool infinity. Right.
12:50
This is called an eternal pool
12:52
so that you can delineate. But
12:55
it was originally called an infinity pool.
12:58
So it's like raining. And
13:01
it's an infinity pool. And
13:05
it's an infinity pool. An
13:08
infinity pool. An
13:10
infinity pool. One
13:27
more. Yeah,
13:30
Bobby, that's a Juno. So
13:33
it's both infinite in
13:35
its time step space. Yeah, yeah,
13:38
yeah, yeah. But it's like safe,
13:40
yeah? Because
13:42
I did a big dive in there. It depends. Yes,
13:44
you did do a fabulous dive.
13:47
It was like a back thing, but then by the time I hit the
13:49
water, I was already like this. No, and we
13:51
loved watching it, Timothy. I
13:55
didn't say my name was Timothy. And
13:58
you didn't not say your name was Timothy. Timothy. And
14:00
my name is Timothy. Why do
14:02
you know that? And why do I know
14:04
that? That's what I'm asking. What's your name?
14:07
You have me at a disadvantage. Rosemary. This
14:10
is Peter. And what's his name? Okay. I'm
14:13
Timothy. And what's your name? Oh
14:17
sorry, I was just putting the glasses back. I'm
14:19
Beatrice. Great.
14:22
Rosemary. Peter.
14:24
Timothy. Beatrice. Got it.
14:28
Do you know, I thought maybe you would
14:30
rather have more of like a chilled red. Yes.
14:33
And I brought it in a plastic cup. Oh thank you.
14:36
Is this okay? Plastic is okay. Yes,
14:38
plastic is fine. The issue
14:41
is it's shattering. And
14:43
also it can scatter your DNA
14:45
throughout the cosmos. Mostly it's the
14:47
shattering and this pool can scatter
14:49
your DNA throughout the cosmos. Sorry
14:53
sir. One more time. That this pool
14:55
can scatter your DNA throughout the cosmos.
14:58
Scatter our DNA like. It
15:00
is in itself much like a big bang.
15:03
Oh. It was created so close to the big bang
15:05
that it's kind of a miniature. It's
15:07
an infinity pool. It's sort of always going
15:09
and also and also. So
15:11
I don't know how to explain it to someone who's
15:13
been alive for what? Two, three hundred years? How old
15:15
are you? I have
15:18
a bad sense of time. Who
15:21
me? Yeah.
15:23
Thirty-one. Okay. All
15:27
right. And this guy? Yeah,
15:31
he looks thirty-one too. Is
15:35
that right? Great. Two
15:38
thirty-one year olds. But if we've already been
15:41
in the pool that means our DNA
15:43
is scattered through the cosmos like there's
15:45
a bunch of little us's like our
15:47
children or our clones. I'm
15:50
going to. Honestly, this is
15:52
my honest advice. For
15:54
the two of you, don't worry
15:56
about it. For it
15:58
to even be relevant to. to you, you would
16:01
have to be traveling throughout the cosmos. Every
16:04
human is in a small way sort of
16:06
scattering its DNA here all the time. The
16:08
only way that this is different from what
16:10
you've already known would be like, if you
16:13
went to another world, which you can't, so
16:15
don't even worry about it. Does
16:17
this mean that you are probably seeing existence
16:19
in countless other worlds and countless other universes?
16:24
But like, what are you going to do? Nothing, right?
16:26
Like, what does it matter to you? What
16:29
does it matter of scale and just
16:31
don't think about it. I
16:38
just feel like, Timothy, this is a
16:40
pretty intense thing to go through with someone
16:42
I've never met before. Yeah. Do
16:45
you want to say some like... Like, tell
16:47
me some things about you. My sister's name
16:49
is Heather. Cool. The two of us, you
16:53
know, we did a lot of horseback riding as a kid
16:55
and neither of us do it still. I
16:57
almost won the spelling bee in
16:59
fourth grade, but then I got a nosebleed.
17:02
Cool. Yeah, I
17:04
just, I need to relate to someone that isn't very,
17:07
very old. Sorry, what'd you say? I
17:09
called them orbs. They're kind of like orbs. Because they're
17:11
a little orb-like. Good of you to notice that. Yes,
17:13
we are orbs. We are orbs. We
17:15
are orbs taking a human form. Most people don't catch
17:18
on to that. Yeah.
17:20
Because, Timothy, honestly, no
17:24
matter where we go from
17:26
here, we're always gonna have
17:28
this thing. Right. And
17:30
I'll never meet a single other
17:32
person who will be able to
17:34
listen to me. When
17:37
I tried to say I finally
17:39
went through the door, the door
17:41
that I had never opened and
17:43
never been through before and inside
17:46
there was an infinity pool.
17:48
And an orb went doo doo doo, it was cool.
17:51
They won't be
17:53
like you. They'll
18:07
just miss their staring, waste
18:09
their mouths again and
18:11
still, they won't
18:14
get me. But,
18:16
I mean,
18:19
hopefully you will. Think
18:22
that you're right on the mark, normal
18:25
just changed forever. And
18:28
anyone I could go through with someone
18:30
else is gonna feel as though when
18:32
we had the double. I
18:34
could look at somebody
18:38
and do the coolest thing you
18:40
can imagine. Like I could
18:42
get famous with two of
18:44
us together, writing some incredible
18:46
book about dragons. But it
18:48
would be the second coolest
18:50
thing that has ever happened
18:52
to me. Well, yeah,
18:54
you just gave me a magic dragon. I just like
18:56
that. That was
18:58
amazing. Oh, it's me. You
19:02
won't get me. It's
19:05
right here. You
19:07
will get
19:10
me. I'll
19:13
get you where I'm at. Who's
19:17
been playing Never Have I
19:19
Ever Sunday? And I'll say,
19:21
Never Have I Ever had my DNA.
19:25
Started throughout the cause of
19:27
it. And
19:29
no one would believe you.
19:31
I believe me. And I'm
19:33
still just one with me. So,
19:36
I could go out the door.
19:39
It's not like the father left. If
19:42
this ain't worth us, no one will get me. It's
19:48
right here. No
19:50
one will get me. I
19:54
will. It's
19:56
like we were starting to write a
19:59
line. Why do you
20:01
love me like you? Hi
20:16
Timothy, it's me Beatrice. I know
20:18
it's been ten years. It's been ten years.
20:21
But I had
20:23
to come as soon as it happened. Did you get
20:25
one? Did you see one? I
20:28
got one and I saw one. I
20:30
don't know what it means but today I
20:33
was just looking in my bird bath and an orb
20:35
emerged. An orb came out of my, not a bird
20:37
bath, but it was a fountain. Yeah, what was it for
20:39
you? You have
20:41
a fountain? Yeah, I've read all of your books. They're amazing. Thank you. I
20:44
can't imagine how many dragons you can imagine.
20:49
You really did everything you said, you know? I
20:51
know. You didn't say you were going
20:54
to do too many things. I was surprised with anyone
20:56
that that's the route that my life took. How are
20:58
you? What have you been up to? Oh
21:00
good, yeah. I mostly like live a quiet
21:02
life. I run
21:05
like a plant store. Wait,
21:09
the succulent place? Yeah, yeah.
21:11
Oh. Yeah. Just
21:14
succulent. Just succulent. But
21:17
I, this morning in my bird bath,
21:19
an orb emerged. And it said
21:21
your DNA is needed once more.
21:24
And I don't know what it's needed for. I don't know either. I mean... And
21:28
I didn't know you got it too.
21:30
Yeah, okay, so it's both of ours. Yes. But
21:33
you look great for 41. Thanks. You
21:36
too. Yeah, I feel
21:38
like I've always felt like I was aging slower
21:40
maybe because of going in the infinity pool. I
21:42
feel like I haven't been aging at all. Oh
21:45
yeah, you look basically exactly. You look basically the same too. Nice. I'm
21:48
missing an eyebrow. I'm
21:50
missing an eyebrow, but that's a cooking thing. Yeah, I
21:53
switched where I part my hair. And
21:55
then exposed to cowlick? Yeah. Probably was
21:57
there all alone. Exactly. Yeah. So
22:00
did we go back? To the pool? I
22:02
mean, you and I swore that night that we'd
22:05
never go back because it was too intense.
22:07
It was really heavy. And
22:09
the night after we left, it was real
22:11
intense. And we were like.
22:13
And then we never spoke for 10 years. And
22:15
we didn't speak. We had a crazy time. And
22:18
then didn't talk about it for 10 years. You're
22:24
stalling. Your DNA is
22:26
needed. Once more. Your
22:30
DNA is needed once more. Your
22:33
DNA is needed once more. OK.
22:36
I know what this is. Your
22:40
DNA is needed once more. Your
22:43
DNA is needed once more. I
22:47
know what this is right now.
22:50
I've done it all. This
22:53
is the point when we're both
22:56
receiving the hero's
22:58
call. It's an
23:00
incredible moment. I
23:03
am too scared. I'm so scared.
23:07
I'm so scared. I'm
23:09
so scared. What
23:12
if we don't know? Do
23:16
we have a good time? Do
23:18
we have a good time? I love you,
23:20
Paul. And if we
23:22
don't know, what if
23:25
we don't know? I
23:27
mean, we should probably go. But
23:30
what if we don't know? Here's
23:37
what I know. But
23:43
I'm so scared. And
23:45
if we don't know, it'll like
23:47
something a hero's brand. Our
23:50
DNA is needed once more. Our
23:53
DNA is needed once more. I'm
24:00
not a good man, I'm a good man. Open
24:02
the door. It's
24:05
not a man here anymore, no. I
24:08
was a... a baby toy, is that
24:10
what you were doing? A baby toy,
24:13
is that what I was doing? A baby
24:15
toy. Is that my
24:17
regional California Toy Story channel? That's
24:21
a little fun, though. Oh. The
24:25
DNA is needed once more, I guess we
24:27
all feel alone. I
24:40
sure hope we get some more DNA. Otherwise
24:44
our small planet will not thrive.
24:46
Yeah. One
24:50
day our tiny planet was in
24:52
crisis, and then a gift from
24:54
the heavens, DNA fell, a
24:56
species that consumes DNA. And
24:59
we went... And
25:02
it was plentiful enough to last a
25:04
long time, and we have grown into
25:06
a tiny but prospering civilization of
25:08
small, mantis-like people. Would
25:11
you say mantis? I think we look more like
25:14
armadillos. Sure. Now
25:17
that you say it, it's way more like armadillos. But if
25:20
we were in the water, we are on a water
25:22
planet, so in that way more like mantis. More
25:24
like water armadillos. My
25:29
favorite thing is to become a little ball and sink
25:31
like a cannon. I like nothing so
25:33
much as to become a little ball and sink
25:35
like a cannon. And eating DNA,
25:38
of course. Oh, yes. But
25:40
the DNA has run out. I haven't seen any since
25:42
DNA in ten years. Hmm.
25:46
What's your thing? Go
25:48
ahead. We're going to
25:50
say, what's your thing, and it's gone.
25:54
It's on DNA. And
25:58
it's been found, and it's gone. Anna,
26:00
play, how do you like the
26:02
heat, Deanna? Well,
26:04
I like the heat and the
26:07
heat. I
26:13
like the heat and the heat,
26:15
and I need a new envelope.

E E E
27:58
E you get in here.
28:03
You left the window open. Hello
28:07
orbs, it's been some time. It
28:10
is I, the first bird. You
28:14
remember, first there was the pigpang.
28:16
Shortly after that there was the
28:18
pool. Then there were you, the
28:21
two orbs, to guard the infinite
28:23
pool. And then you, the first bird.
28:25
The first bird. Douglas.
28:28
Some people say the first
28:30
bird is the worst bird.
28:34
And they're right. Oh no,
28:36
Douglas, we don't want any trouble. Not
28:38
like last time. I
28:40
hear you're having people bring
28:42
their DNA back again to scatter about
28:44
the cause. Yes we are. How's that
28:46
going? I'm sure they'll be here any minute. They
28:48
may have hesitated the call at first, but only to
28:51
reason through it briefly, and then I'm sure they're on
28:53
their way. They
28:55
may fail obstacles in scattering their DNA, but
28:57
they'll do it. They're
28:59
the only two who ever walked through that door.
29:03
Yes, flying doesn't count. No, you came through
29:05
the window. Damn it Peter, I told you
29:07
to keep that closed. I'm sorry, it was
29:09
hot. The
29:12
pool will be mine. I
29:16
will take the pool. I
29:19
will float in it. And
29:22
that fake duck can't stop me. I
29:26
know that duck is fake. It
29:29
doesn't make me think it's a real
29:31
bird. I know what a
29:33
real bird is. I'm a
29:35
real bird. This is my pool.
29:38
I will take it. And
29:40
then. Everything
29:43
will be burned. Everything
29:46
will be burned.
29:49
Everything will be
29:51
burned. No, you
29:53
say. I'll
29:55
be born. We'll be
29:58
made across the. I'm
30:01
going to get in the pool now
30:03
and I cannot be stopped because you have
30:06
a window open. Please don't hit
30:08
him. It was hot. If
30:12
there's any last words to me who's
30:14
the first bird before I go in
30:16
the pool. You're welcome.
30:21
I'm going to get in
30:23
the pool. Damn it, that
30:25
was cool. No Douglas, wait.
30:27
What about a deal? What
30:29
about a compromise? You'd like
30:31
to make a deal with the worst bird? What
30:35
could you possibly offer me? I will get
30:37
in this pool and I will cede bird
30:39
DNA to the entire universe. Oh,
30:42
you like to be a bird. I'm
30:45
not a bird. I
30:47
will cede bird DNA to the entire universe. Oh,
30:50
you like to be a time orb.
30:55
A green and floating time
30:57
orb. A sweet old thingy
31:00
snake. How
31:04
about it? Would you like
31:06
to be a time orb? A sweet old
31:08
thingy snake. Would
31:12
you like to be a time
31:14
orb? Someone's like eating
31:17
an egg. And
31:19
I'm waiting after that. Someone
31:23
seems to be an egg.
31:25
I never would have cracked
31:27
out of the spell. And
31:31
now the pony's mine. I
31:34
hope you have a
31:36
way to take the
31:38
beauty of mine. I
31:40
hope you have a good day. So,
32:00
everybody with a sign, love, love,
32:02
love, love, love, love.
32:13
Oh, great, Katie. Katie,
32:20
you're about to open the door,
32:22
stop looking at those Katie Toys
32:24
relics. I haven't seen
32:26
this sword in so long.
32:30
Um, uh... You
32:35
know how I said you hadn't changed in ten years? Yeah.
32:42
You're a big bird. You're a big bird.
32:45
And not... Not
32:48
the big bird. GM.
32:51
Hey, big bird. You're a...
32:54
Cassowary, I think? I think you're kind of like a
32:56
robin. Yeah.
32:59
Oh, you're much bigger than I am. No!
33:02
Oh, I'm a big robin. Yeah. Hmm.
33:05
I think I can fly. I
33:08
don't think you can. Dammit,
33:10
that's just my luck. I
33:12
should have told you, things haven't gone as well for
33:14
me in the past ten years as they
33:16
have for you. That succulent sword, it's
33:19
not going well. Of course
33:21
I'd be a flightless bird, just my luck. Hey! Probably
33:24
you should go through the door on your own. No,
33:26
no, no, things aren't going great for me
33:28
either. I mean, my ninth book, Imagine All
33:30
the Dragons, took like
33:32
an extra three days to hit the top of the New York
33:34
Times of us all. You don't have to be nice, Smithy. I
33:36
think you should go through the door first. You were the
33:38
one who went through the door first all those years
33:40
ago. I never would have done it if you hadn't
33:42
asked me to. I would have just stood there pouring
33:44
orange wine, pretending it was good. Well,
33:49
you don't often get a second chance. So
33:52
maybe this is the time you should go through the door first. Okay,
33:54
my feet are weird. Yeah. They're
33:57
honestly scary. You got bit like, you could mess someone up
33:59
with them. I feel like I need a
34:01
mirror because I can't totally picture what bird I
34:03
am. Well, you can look at the, uh, a
34:05
cassowary. It's like an ostrich, but the head is
34:07
blue and like more like a dinosaur. Damn it!
34:10
Ugh. At least
34:13
you can walk. I'm more of a hop-on-ground
34:15
type of bird. Peter? Rosemary?
34:17
Uh, we've got your orb,
34:20
Cole. Mine was in
34:22
a bird bath. Damn! Foreshadowing.
34:25
We're sorry. We're
34:27
sorry small former humans, but we
34:30
are distraught right now. You
34:32
don't understand. Everything is birds because the
34:34
first worst bird Douglas went in the
34:36
infinite pool. We were supposed to
34:38
guard the pool, but I opened the window because it got
34:40
a little bit hot. Peter got hot! This
34:43
is the first time this has happened since the beginning
34:45
of the creation of time. We're
34:47
sorry. We've let you down and now everything's
34:49
birds. Everything is birds. Oh,
34:52
Beatrice! Um... Oh,
34:54
cool! Such
34:58
a bad bird. I
35:00
actually don't think so. I think cassowaries are quite cool.
35:02
I mean, if you saw one in the wild, you'd
35:04
be like, oh shit, I don't want to get close
35:06
to that. And not because
35:08
it's not pretty because it's scared...
35:10
powerful. No,
35:13
I shouldn't be the powerful bird too. They should be...
35:16
You should be the bird that looks like a
35:18
dinosaur, not the one who looks like a cute
35:20
little bird. I think...
35:23
honestly, I think we're both cool in our own way. But
35:26
also, why'd you need our DNA again? Oh,
35:29
the whole town. Oh, it's a small magic planet.
35:31
Armadillo. Oh, right, yes. They're in
35:33
the water though. They eat DNA. They
35:36
needed yours. They needed yours. They probably still do,
35:38
but now they're birds that eat DNA. I
35:42
don't know. Much
35:47
the same here on this planet. Yes,
35:50
except for now we have wings. Still hungry
35:52
though. We
35:56
just wanted to save them because we've grown quite fond of
35:58
them. They're very cute little planets. And
36:00
we need someone that can tr- Oh
36:03
hold on a second. Peter,
36:05
have you had a thought? Rosemary,
36:08
I've had my first thought. Everything
36:11
I've been up into this point was preordained, but
36:13
I think I just had a thought. Thinking
36:16
about my thought was my second thought. How
36:19
grand? It was grand indeed. I
36:22
was just thinking... I
36:24
don't want to get too technical about it, but... To
36:27
combat the fact that everything in the universe is
36:29
now birds, we need something that can be everywhere
36:31
in the universe. And the only other thing that
36:33
is that is... Well, the two of
36:35
you. Because you came in here
36:37
and got wine drunk and swam in the pool. And
36:40
then as I understand it had a pretty crazy night
36:42
after that. And haven't
36:44
seen each other since then? Since 10 years
36:46
since then. I
36:54
mean, I'm not
36:56
exactly sure what to do. But
37:00
I know that I
37:03
think I could do it with you.
37:06
We don't have to dive right into
37:08
the deep end. We
37:12
can go see. So by
37:14
taking you to these last
37:17
friends. We're not birds
37:20
of the feather. We
37:24
could still do this together.
37:29
Yep, that's the noise you make. We're
37:31
not birds of the feather.
37:36
We could still do this together. Gorgeous.
38:03

39:53
work like that? depends
39:55
what you know about DNA Yes,
40:03
today. Oh
40:31
no, there's birds
40:33
coming from everywhere!
40:36
Um, Um, uh, uh, What
40:39
do birds hate? Um, Orbs.
40:43
Do birds hate? Yeah, that's why they get out
40:46
of eggs so fast and fly away. Um,
40:50
uh, okay, so you two, uh,
40:53
um, uh, Do you? Do
40:55
you? Do you? Um,
40:58
nipotent watching types. But we
41:00
are supposed to guard lives. I
41:03
guess we could be a little orb distraction for
41:05
all these thousands of birds that burst through
41:07
that window. Peter, is it still open? Peter,
41:11
is the window, go check. I
41:13
could swear I closed it. Because I remember I saw
41:15
it and I thought, you were supposed to close that.
41:18
Yes. Let me go check. Yeah,
41:21
it's still open. Hold on one second. Okay,
41:24
now it is closed. But there are,
41:26
um, so many birds in
41:28
here. Ah, ruff, sweet, sweet. Oh,
41:30
but look, they seem to be scared of you.
41:34
Of me? Ah! Okay, now
41:36
they're all flying trying to get back into the window,
41:38
but the window is closed now. Ah! So
41:41
I'm gonna go, I'm gonna open the
41:43
window. Okay, open, open, open. Peter, Peter,
41:45
Peter. Scared again? The window's open. Stay by
41:48
the window, Peter. Stay by the window.
41:50
I definitely will. Open, uh, Ah!
41:53
Good, they're so scared and they left. Great job. Everyone
41:56
did a really good job. Peter? What?
41:59
The window, yeah. Yes,
42:01
absolutely. Okay,
42:03
good. You both put your DNA and
42:05
your intention to make everything normal back
42:07
through the world. That should be good.
42:09
You close the window and no birds,
42:11
not even no birds, not even a...
42:14
Oh, yeah, hold on. Ugh. I'm
42:17
back to normal. I'm
42:20
still a bird. Yeah,
42:23
why is that? Um, I
42:25
didn't get out of the pool. I'm
42:27
still in the pool. You jumped out of the
42:29
pool because you could fly. Right. I
42:32
didn't get out of the pool and there must be
42:34
someone else in this pool. I mean, it's infinite. Um,
42:36
is the, uh... Oh, um,
42:38
is... Can you see that speck way
42:41
over there? Choo
42:43
choo choo choo choo choo choo choo. Hello?
42:48
Hello? Hi. Oh, oh
42:50
my gosh. I've been swimming in this pool for so long.
42:54
Really? Yeah. So we thought
42:56
we were the only ones who threw him in this pool.
42:58
Oh, yeah, no, I get that a lot, people. Um, I
43:02
mean, people love this pool. It's great. It's why I made it. What?
43:04
Um... Oh, hi,
43:07
Big Bang. Ugh. Oh,
43:12
but sometimes I just get distracted and lose time here.
43:15
Oh, hey, Rosemary, Peter. How's it going? Hi,
43:17
Dad. Yeah. Still
43:20
guarding live? Yeah, mostly guarding
43:22
time. Still guarding time, yeah. Great. We
43:25
learned about the window, Dad. Oh,
43:27
yeah. Yeah, we learned you keep the window. Was it
43:29
there as, like, a test? Dad,
43:32
was the window a test? Because it feels like if
43:34
you didn't want any birds, then, like, why make the
43:36
window? Dad, Dad, Dad, tell us. Dad, tell
43:38
us. Um, what do you want
43:40
the answer to be? Um,
43:43
that it was a test. It was a
43:45
test and you passed. But we failed at
43:47
first? Well, that's how you learned from a
43:49
test. That's right, Peter. So I guess you
43:51
pass failed. You
43:53
took this test, passed failed. Great job. Great. Um,
43:57
oh, you're a human man? Is
44:00
that a cassowary? We think, yeah. Oh,
44:04
fabulous. The cassowary is one
44:06
of the strongest birds. Huh.
44:10
Hey, Big Bang? Yeah? This
44:14
is, um... I don't know if you have powers like
44:16
this, but... Can
44:19
I... Stay a bird? I
44:25
kinda like being this
44:27
big, clumpy
44:29
bird. Hold
44:33
on, you wanna stay as a bird?
44:35
Kinda wanna stay as a bird. Very
44:37
quick. Yeah. Are you sure? Well,
44:41
if I could be a bird like this bird,
44:44
then I think that I
44:46
could be sure. You
44:49
know, I don't wanna, um, like, start
44:52
to eat weird things, or like
44:54
use the ability to
44:57
speak. Right. Can
45:00
I just be the bird like
45:03
I am now, where
45:05
I'm still me? Right. But
45:07
I'm a bird with a bird
45:09
like you. I'm the right bird,
45:12
but only some of the
45:14
bird things. Yeah. Yeah.
45:18
Like it's happening now. Right. Exactly.
45:22
Can I... Stay
45:25
like I
45:29
am now? Can
45:32
I stay like I
45:35
am now? Can
45:38
I stay like I
45:40
am now? Can
45:45
I stay like I
45:48
am now? I've
45:54
been around for a long
45:56
time. Forever. I literally am
45:59
time. I think
46:02
it would be fine. It's
46:08
the last thing that I think
46:10
you should take. The
46:12
real thing that is true. You
46:15
don't ever have
46:18
to ask permission
46:20
to the U. In
46:24
a long,
46:26
long, long time. In
46:38
a day like
46:41
this. You
46:45
might feel
46:47
I have
46:49
to stay
46:51
in need.
46:55
You might feel I
46:57
have to
47:01
stay in need. You
47:04
might feel I have to stay
47:07
in need. You
47:13
might feel I
47:15
have to stay
47:17
in need. You
47:21
might feel I
47:23
have to stay
47:26
in need. You
47:29
might feel I have
47:32
to stay in need.
47:35
You might feel
47:37
I have to stay
47:39
in need. You
47:43
might feel I have to
47:46
stay in need. And
48:00
I see you in the pool
48:06
And I see you in the pool And
48:10
I see you in the pool
48:15
And I see you on the floor
48:17
And I see you in
48:20
the pool You
48:23
don't have to say in the pool Oh,
48:26
really? Oh! If you wanna leave
48:28
the pool I
48:31
think you should
48:33
stop playing about the rules
48:36
But say don't go in this pool
48:39
Sometimes you gotta do what you want
48:41
to do And that was a
48:44
test, too! Sure,
48:46
yeah! That was a test,
48:48
you passed the test! Yes!
48:51
Great job! Oh,
48:55
don't I think you're on
48:57
the call No
49:00
one will tell you
49:04
We live doing
49:07
it now We
49:10
feel a
49:13
new one
49:16
somehow Gee,
49:20
I'm gonna be... I
49:23
know last time we had that crazy night And then
49:25
we didn't see each other for ten years And this
49:27
has to arguably be crazier than that other night
49:29
It is objectively crazier than
49:31
that one You're a
49:34
bird, you're gonna be a bird forever Or I guess you
49:36
decide you don't want to be anymore I'm
49:38
gonna go be a bird of the cosmos And I
49:40
don't care about the rules if that makes sense I
49:46
love you, Dad And
49:49
I know exactly where I wanna go And I don't know
49:51
that you can follow me So I think this might
49:53
be goodbye Okay, um...
49:56
Well... I
49:59
got you. something. When? When
50:04
you were distracted in the KB Toys. Oh.
50:06
I bought you something in the KB Toys. Oh. Cool.
50:11
It's not in a pocket because I don't have them anymore.
50:13
I left it on
50:15
the deck. What is it? It's
50:21
a bottle of chilled red. Yeah.
50:25
They had this here? Sorry.
50:28
Is this it? Yeah. That's it. That's it. I think
50:30
you might like it. Yeah. No,
50:32
don't try now. You have to chill it. Right.
50:37
Yeah. I guess it says chilled red, but you have to chill
50:39
it yourself. Yeah. Yeah. I just took
50:41
it off the shelf. Yeah. Well,
50:44
good luck out in the cosmos, I guess. You
50:46
too. Well, I'll be here. But
50:49
yeah. Oh, well, yeah. Yeah. That
50:51
is a part of the cosmos. Are
50:53
you ever going to come back? I don't know.
50:55
I can't say for sure. Wow.
51:01
She just
51:03
stepped through
51:05
reality. What
51:08
the actual fuck? The
51:13
first. I'm the first bird and the
51:15
worst bird. What are
51:17
you? I'm Beatrice,
51:20
the cassowary who has human thoughts.
51:25
A cassowary who has human thoughts. Yes.
51:27
And I'm traveling to the cosmos and I want to
51:29
visit my favorite new planet. Wait a minute. That's
51:31
what I do. I'm the first. I travel to
51:33
the cosmos. Well, I'm the second. Well,
51:36
hi. Hi. Hi.
51:38
I don't. I'm sorry.
51:40
I don't know
51:44
how I feel about this. We don't have to
51:46
be enemies. I just wanted to visit the small
51:48
planet full of armadillo mantis and say hello. We're
51:50
birds. We don't. What do you mean we don't
51:53
have to be enemies? All birds fight each other.
51:55
It's why you never see birds in groups. Douglas,
51:59
that's not true. It is true. I am
52:01
the first bird. I know what it is
52:03
to be a bird. All birds are solitary
52:05
creatures. No, Douglas. Most birds are in flocks.
52:08
Prove it. What
52:13
are those? Um, those are birds. What kind?
52:17
Ducks. Ducks.
52:21
These are my brethren. And
52:24
yet they are so close to each other. They're
52:27
not alone in an infinite void. Yeah,
52:29
why would you choose to be that? Dark
52:34
and moody and cool. Well,
52:37
why you gotta be like that? When
52:40
you get beat different than that. What other way is there
52:42
to be? Oh,
52:44
you don't know? No. You
52:47
think there's only one location
52:49
on the radio? No.
52:56
You think there's only one
52:58
type of way to get
53:00
up and go? Oh,
53:03
oh no. You think there's
53:06
only one kind of color
53:08
in the crayon bar?
53:11
Uh oh. You
53:14
think there's any way you can go
53:16
away? The way
53:18
you're trying? The
53:20
money. It is different kinds of locks.
53:24
You can fly. You
53:29
can fly. Oh,
53:41
you can fly. You
53:46
can fly. You
53:49
can fly. You
53:54
can fly. Oh,
54:00
what a night, no heart
54:03
at all You should be clear
54:05
of life and birth And
54:08
all this is like me, oh, yeah Ha!
54:13
Hello, wake me up
54:17
I'm just lying like a lot
54:20
Ready to touch me and fear
54:23
all the more Oh,
54:26
wake me up You
54:35
can't turn down You
54:38
can't move my way You
54:43
can't get high You
54:47
can't bring that away You
54:53
can't bring that away You
54:56
can't bring that away You
55:01
can't get high You
55:04
can't bring that away
55:10
Maybe if you do not mind I'll
55:12
try to be more collaborative
55:14
when I fly I'm
55:17
flying with you, oh, but you can't
55:20
be at all Get
55:22
on my back to the sun and
55:24
I'll see you And
55:27
I'm just lying
55:30
Maybe if you do not
55:33
mind You can't move my
55:35
way Maybe
55:39
if you do not mind You
55:42
can't move my way
55:46
Maybe if you do not mind I'll see
55:48
you again Maybe
55:50
if you do not mind I'll
55:52
see you again Yes! Hi
56:03
Armadillo! Hi!
56:08
Did you come to see a nanny? Of
56:10
course I did! Hey,
56:16
Douglas! Help
56:24
me! I
56:26
feel loud! I feel
56:28
like nobody looked at me. The
56:40
birds burst and they never saw
56:43
the birds And I never
56:45
checked to see if there was another bird.
56:49
I just assumed I was the only bird and
56:51
the cosmos was great That's why I
56:53
got in the pool to make a whole lot of other birds Only
56:55
to find that there's been birds the whole time! There's
56:58
been birds this whole time! This whole
57:00
time! We
57:04
don't apply so much! You
57:11
know what I'd like to
57:15
do right now? It's
57:18
not what you're supposed to, but it's what
57:20
I think I'm about I'd
57:23
like to fly through the
57:25
cosmos with you But
57:27
there's another thing that would make it
57:29
more cool If
57:31
we were drunk just
57:34
a little bit The
57:38
feeling where you're just about to cross
57:40
the line Not
57:43
whiskey, not tequila
57:46
I'm talking about what? hot
58:07
enjoyed with
58:15
and in do
58:26
will me the
58:41
won'll be me hear
58:50
them know
58:52
on we get me or
58:57
maybe
59:02
Shock named
1:00:00
Infinity times infinity one.
1:00:08
Give it up for God, that's for all.
1:00:14
Give it up
1:00:16
for Brett Morris. Give
1:00:19
it up for Tina Wiccan. Thank
1:00:25
you, thank you so much. Sweet audience, here's
1:00:28
what's going to happen now. So
1:00:30
you just saw the opening, you
1:00:32
just saw a performance, a real
1:00:34
life performance of this musical. Infinity
1:00:37
times infinity one. Golly.
1:00:42
And so you know this is a practice they
1:00:44
do a lot of times and when they're trying
1:00:46
to develop new musicals or new shows, they'll do
1:00:48
a small production out of town, you know, and
1:00:50
then they'll do a talk back afterwards. So what's
1:00:52
going to happen now is we're all going to
1:00:54
transport ourselves, you just saw a fully realized production.
1:00:56
There's a pool on stage, there's a full cast,
1:00:58
we're going to bring out the cast and crew.
1:01:00
And if you want to make your way to
1:01:02
this microphone here, thank you so much. We
1:01:05
have time to take some questions from the audience. I think
1:01:07
we actually have about... If you're not up
1:01:09
yet, that's probably... I think we immediately
1:01:11
filled our audience. We immediately have
1:01:13
a full line infinity time infinity one. Thank you so
1:01:15
much. We'll try to get through as many as we
1:01:17
can. Thank you
1:01:19
so much. All right, so please welcome out
1:01:22
the cast and crew of Many And
1:01:45
who's it for? Hey there, my name is Roger. This
1:01:48
question is actually for your merchandising team.
1:01:50
Oh, great. I love all of your
1:01:53
bird plushies and figurines. But
1:01:55
I'm curious, why did you decide to go
1:01:57
with exclusive distribution of KB Toys? Yeah,
1:02:02
that's a great question. We had
1:02:04
so much fun with the merch.
1:02:06
I feel like there's a lot
1:02:08
of wine tumblers getting into your
1:02:11
mom era. Whoopsies, infinity wine. And
1:02:14
when we were looking for someone to
1:02:16
align with, KB Toys was just sort
1:02:18
of natural. And then we did think,
1:02:20
that'll be good. Let's put them in
1:02:22
the script. So it was one of those
1:02:24
organic situations where my dad is
1:02:26
the owner of KB Toys. Just
1:02:29
one of those really organic situations where my
1:02:32
dad is actually the founder and CEO of
1:02:34
KB Toys. When they came to me,
1:02:36
when my darling daughter came to me and said, we're
1:02:41
not only going to exclusively sell this
1:02:43
merch at your stores, we're going to
1:02:45
put KB Toys in the musical. I
1:02:47
said, this store's been gone for some time.
1:02:50
And I said, but daddy, I have to make good memories. And
1:02:53
wouldn't we all do whatever we can for our darling
1:02:55
children? Thank you so much for your
1:02:57
question. Hi. That's
1:02:59
your name and who's your question for us? Hey, I'm Alan.
1:03:02
And this question is for, I guess, the
1:03:04
writers or maybe the director. I
1:03:06
heard in an early version of
1:03:09
this production that Hamburgler was involved.
1:03:12
And I noticed he
1:03:14
was distinctly absent from the final product.
1:03:16
So I was just, yeah, do
1:03:19
you have any early songs you remember or any
1:03:21
scenes or anything I can? I can remember him.
1:03:23
Not only was he involved, he was a, I
1:03:26
would say, foundational piece of the album.
1:03:28
He used to be a much larger part of the
1:03:30
script. But now you'll actually realize
1:03:33
that the Armadillo Mantis, they're never named.
1:03:35
And they're actually one is named Hammond,
1:03:37
one is named Burglar. But you're
1:03:39
right. In the earlier draft, there was
1:03:41
a Hamburglar came in. There was
1:03:43
a whole Hamburglar planet. We had
1:03:45
a whole multiverse of mascots from
1:03:47
fast food chains. Those were the
1:03:50
planets versus animals. And what
1:03:52
we found was we're having so much
1:03:54
time talking about fast food that we
1:03:57
did stop pushing the narrative of the plot.
1:04:00
And so we had to sort of take a step back. Because
1:04:03
you know contrary, we don't actually have infinity
1:04:05
time. Right. Ha ha
1:04:07
ha. We're trying
1:04:09
to do 90 minutes no intermission. Okay.
1:04:12
Thank you so much. Thank you for your question. Thank
1:04:14
you. Hello. Hi,
1:04:19
my name is Steve and my question
1:04:21
is for your choreographers. I saw this
1:04:23
was the most ambitious amount of choreography
1:04:25
with the synchronized swimming and the traspies
1:04:27
artist and the stunts. I was just
1:04:29
wondering what was your thought process, what
1:04:31
was your inspiration, how was that like?
1:04:35
When we came together to make movies,
1:04:39
we thought what if
1:04:41
every single person in this
1:04:43
play had a- I'm
1:04:46
sorry, I'm still being an armadillo. Yes,
1:04:48
yes. Sorry it takes me a
1:04:50
moment. So much time, so many
1:04:53
times a choreographer comes to a
1:04:55
cast and says, do this thing
1:04:57
that I have made in advance.
1:05:00
And what we have found is that's not natural. What's
1:05:03
natural is sometimes you want to be a ball
1:05:06
and then come out of it so slowly. And
1:05:09
if that's what you feel then that is what you must
1:05:11
go toward. So
1:05:13
what we did is we had all the
1:05:15
cast just do whatever they felt was real,
1:05:17
whatever movement they felt was right. And if
1:05:19
they came out with a little ball, so
1:05:22
be it. If they stay
1:05:24
in the ball, such
1:05:26
is life. Next
1:05:29
question. No, I'm fine, thank
1:05:34
you. My
1:05:37
name is Paula and I wanted to
1:05:39
ask your bird handlers or bird scientists
1:05:41
a question. Yes,
1:05:46
yes, we'll bring them out. Us
1:05:49
too? Are we allowed? We're us too? Okay,
1:05:51
yeah, hi. Hi, my name is- Hi,
1:05:53
you sit. No, you. Hi,
1:06:02
hi, what's your question? Yeah,
1:06:05
my question was... Sorry, hi. Hi,
1:06:08
sorry, what's your question? Sorry,
1:06:10
go ahead. Sorry.
1:06:13
I'm sorry, no, we're sorry. No, you go. You go. No,
1:06:17
no, go ahead. I
1:06:22
wanted to ask about how you were
1:06:24
able to include all
1:06:26
of those birds, especially in the
1:06:28
window scene, and how did
1:06:30
you work with all of those birds and conduct
1:06:32
all of that research? Because it was
1:06:35
so crazy, but it was so cool. Yeah,
1:06:37
they're terrifying. Those are
1:06:39
all of our birds. Obviously
1:06:42
we don't own them, they are birds. Here's
1:06:44
the thing about birds, birds are creatures.
1:06:47
They're animalistic as long as they
1:06:49
are fed, they basically
1:06:51
will do... James and I have a window and
1:06:53
we open it and birds come in. And
1:06:57
in our apartment and they
1:06:59
just sort of stayed there and we kept feeding them
1:07:01
and they didn't leave. And then we couldn't get the
1:07:04
window closed. We're not scientists.
1:07:07
Sorry, no. Don't
1:07:09
tell them. Don't tell them. We just left
1:07:11
the window open and we have a lot of birds. People
1:07:14
don't realize this, if you leave a window open
1:07:16
for long enough, anywhere on the planet. I know sometimes
1:07:18
it gets hot, but careful. If you open
1:07:20
a window, you're asking for a room full
1:07:22
of birds. Sooner or later
1:07:24
they will come. They are numerous,
1:07:27
they are legion. Thank
1:07:29
you. Thank you. Oh
1:07:35
my gosh, they ran away. Hi,
1:07:37
I'm Julia. Hello. Hi, Julia. So
1:07:40
my question is for the sommelier. Oh
1:07:42
yeah. I believe
1:07:44
Charles Von Cluff is the name. I wanted to ask,
1:07:46
what was the decision to get the cast wine drunk
1:07:48
and the brilliance behind that? I
1:07:53
was thinking about how there's that very specific
1:07:55
type of wine drunk. I don't know if
1:07:58
this is the same. for you, but for
1:08:00
me there's a sudden flushness in the cheeks
1:08:02
before I even feel that I have gone
1:08:04
beyond the line and I am now wine
1:08:06
drunk. Now I find that that can't
1:08:09
be replicated with makeup, it can't be replicated with
1:08:11
lights, it can only be replicated by having at
1:08:13
least two and a half glasses without having enough
1:08:15
lunch. Without having enough
1:08:17
lunch. That's key. For me.
1:08:20
So I insisted that the entire cast not eat lunch and
1:08:22
have two and a half glasses of wine before the second
1:08:24
act. Because I needed it to be authentic and I needed
1:08:26
it to be real and if you look under your seats
1:08:29
you'll all see two
1:08:31
and a half glasses of unnatural orange wine that
1:08:34
I do like except for a
1:08:36
few in the back out of chilled red. Now
1:08:38
I find that wine drunk is specific to us
1:08:40
all. Close your eyes, picture your wine drunk, that's
1:08:43
you. And
1:08:45
if you need to be, the theater is living
1:08:48
truthfully under imaginary circumstances. So your imaginary
1:08:50
circumstances are different than mine and there's
1:08:52
no way for me to know without
1:08:55
giving you wine. Thank
1:08:57
you so much
1:09:00
for your question.
1:09:02
Hi, my name is Hannah. As you know
1:09:05
the show has gained a lot of traction on Tumblr and there's
1:09:07
been a lot of wild theories about
1:09:09
the true meaning of this show. Absolutely.
1:09:11
I mean we're so thankful you guys
1:09:13
are finally getting to put this show on. But
1:09:15
there's been some theories. We're wondering at the beginning
1:09:17
if Timothy goes in the pool and his DNA
1:09:20
is scattered through all time. And the two main
1:09:22
leads talk about how they feel like they're the
1:09:24
right fit for each other, they're the only ones
1:09:26
who understand each other. And of course towards the
1:09:29
end of the show, actually I
1:09:31
believe it's Beatrice ends up with the
1:09:33
worst bird and they say like they
1:09:35
feel like they understand each other. Is
1:09:37
the worst bird actually Timothy on one
1:09:39
of his forms that has been scattered
1:09:44
throughout
1:09:47
all
1:09:50
time?
1:09:53
And what does that say about choice
1:09:55
versus death? Hannah.
1:10:04
Hannah, thank you for diving
1:10:06
into this, the appropriate amount. With
1:10:10
the amount that it was intended and the
1:10:13
care that was given. Yes. That's right. Well
1:10:15
spotted. Timothy dies before Timothy and Beatrice slowly
1:10:17
dip their toes in together. So there is
1:10:19
a brief period of time where only Timothy's
1:10:21
DNA is scattered throughout time and cosmos and
1:10:23
then that timeline is undone by the time
1:10:25
they both jump in. But in
1:10:27
that time, up in the corner of the
1:10:30
entire time was a bird, the first bird,
1:10:32
Douglas, who he's there to take on
1:10:34
a bit of Timothy. And what we're really trying to say
1:10:37
is we're all carbon. But
1:10:41
Tumblr, as per usual, dotted in one.
1:10:45
Wow. That
1:10:49
was amazing. What's
1:10:52
your name and what's your question?
1:10:55
Hi, my name is Michael. I have
1:10:57
a question for the costume designer. I
1:11:00
was really impressed by the Big Bang's costume.
1:11:02
It felt like it was like every color
1:11:04
all at the same time, infinitely.
1:11:06
And I swear at one point, like I saw
1:11:09
a memory of myself as a 10 year old
1:11:11
child. So I
1:11:13
was kind of wondering just like how did you pull
1:11:15
that off? Like it was amazing. Yeah, there are two
1:11:17
things at play there. The colors is we reuse the
1:11:19
coat from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. You
1:11:23
might see it was red and orange
1:11:25
and green and blue and blue
1:11:27
and white. And brilliant comes up real
1:11:29
early. But
1:11:32
yes, and the memories of you as a
1:11:34
child thing is because there is, we
1:11:37
use like a little bit of like, what do I call it? Temporal
1:11:41
thread. Yeah.
1:11:44
You know thread? You know thread, but for time. But
1:11:46
upward timeline. We use that. So that's
1:11:48
what the coat's made of. So that's why you
1:11:50
felt that. Because we
1:11:52
use temporal thread on a pre-existing
1:11:54
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
1:11:58
Thank you so much for your question. Hi,
1:12:04
my name is Cassette and my question
1:12:06
is for the main writer and director.
1:12:09
So, was this a test
1:12:11
and did we pass it? Yes.
1:12:20
Sorry, that's our final question. I'm
1:12:22
so sorry. And now
1:12:24
the answer to the test. Thank
1:12:30
you. And
1:13:31
now the answer to the test. Now
1:13:33
you've told me to give it to
1:13:35
me and that you can't hold me
1:13:37
back now. It's
1:13:40
a place of no more character names.
1:13:43
It has the best of walks but
1:13:46
now you see in the test. Does
1:13:48
there on type of a bird mean
1:13:50
what was the type of a bird?
1:13:54
Because a bird is a human
1:13:56
being. And
1:14:00
what was the thread that we used
1:14:03
on the do-do-do-do-do? And
1:14:08
I'll know, what if
1:14:11
we'd stand here playing the drum?
1:14:14
And I'll know, what if we'd
1:14:16
stand here playing
1:14:19
the drum? And
1:14:21
I'll know, what if
1:14:24
we'd stand here playing the
1:14:27
drum? And I'll know, what
1:14:29
if we'd stand
1:14:31
here playing the drum? And I'll
1:14:34
know, what if we'd stand
1:14:36
here watching
1:14:38
the drum? And I'll know,
1:14:41
what if we'd stand here
1:14:43
playing the drum? And
1:14:46
you know, when you play the drum...
1:14:52
You know?
1:14:56
And then...
1:15:02
You gave me a
1:15:04
