8:00
We got plenty of the floors are
8:02
filthy and disgusting And
8:04
I took him to a world full of
8:06
floor booze where the floors were covered and
8:08
all sort You name it any sort of
8:10
liquor? We were breaking in and out of
8:12
everything so captain's been my muscle ever since
8:14
day one and well ever since I've fallen
8:16
on hard times He's remembered
8:18
the kindness. I showed him when we were but
8:20
cubs There's
8:22
one bear in this crew. I've known almost as
8:25
long as I've known sunny It's
8:27
got to be doc over here. Ain't that
8:29
right doc? That is absolutely correct. We've known
8:32
each other for 25 years The
8:36
thing they don't teach you about the life on
8:38
the seas that you actually have to learn a
8:40
lot There's actually like you have to
8:42
go to Naval College. You have to
8:44
take classes. There's more to it than
8:47
floating Yeah,
8:49
they have a pretty broad curriculum They want you to
8:51
have a breadth of knowledge for
8:53
all sorts of things that might happen on
8:55
the sea as well as literature history philosophy
8:58
Ethics and I wanted to
9:00
cheat I wanted to cheat I wanted an
9:02
easy way. I wanted to get out on
9:04
that water That's when I hooked up with
9:06
dr. Emeritus over here. He Sold
9:09
me all the answers to all
9:11
the tests. Yes, you see
9:13
I used to work on the Maval College
9:15
board. I actually helped write a lot of
9:18
the questions that are used to test sailors.
9:20
It was a It
9:22
was a gig that I needed after I Was
9:25
successfully fined by the government and needed to
9:28
raise money. So I started This
9:32
truth is I made up a lot of facts
9:34
to go into Test books
9:36
for sailors didn't seem like a problem for
9:38
me that you know, I I found
9:41
out later that You
9:43
you actually don't use
9:45
the anchor to catch really big fish Despite
9:48
its large hook shape It
9:50
is used to pull boats down to
9:52
the bottom of the ocean once the
9:55
boat gets tired of swimming Thanks,
9:59
was that That's also wrong.
10:01
Hey, who wrote the test, pal?
10:03
Hahaha. So
10:05
I still needed a lot of money after
10:08
doing that job, and so then I started
10:10
selling the answers. I
10:12
was only able to do it once before
10:14
I got arrested again. But Captain
10:16
was the beneficiary. And eventually when
10:18
I hooked up with Sunny, well
10:21
I knew Doc was crooked, so I
10:23
brought him on board to forge documents
10:25
for us and navigate
10:28
some of those halls of power. The,
10:30
uh, you know, the rougher elements don't
10:33
always do so well, but Doc, well
10:35
Doc and Doc the Doc. Obelisk,
10:38
do you need any legal documents? I
10:40
could get you a driver's license if you like.
10:43
They're very easy to do. Or maybe
10:46
currency. I draw a mean
10:48
dollar bill. I wouldn't mind protecting my IP!
10:51
You want to protect your IP? Yes!
10:54
Oh, so you want to file for a
10:56
copyright or a trademark or perhaps a patent?
10:58
No! I want to make something and everybody
11:01
know not to touch it! I don't want
11:03
there to be a reason. I
11:05
don't want there to be a
11:08
copyright. I want everyone to fear,
11:10
fear, fear copying my content. Okay,
11:12
well I forged documents. So
11:15
anytime you'd like that. I'll
11:19
take it! Alright, terrific. Consider it thanks
11:21
for giving us this ride. You've earned
11:23
the ride by solving my many reduce!
11:26
As I mentioned, I did swiftly
11:28
have to go to prison once I was caught selling
11:31
test answers to Boat
11:33
College. And
11:36
it was not my first time in prison.
11:38
So they sent me to the prison of
11:40
the Arctic. Oh, it's so
11:42
cold up there and it's the
11:45
prison is surrounded by icy
11:47
water so that if you get
11:49
out, you're not going to enjoy it. At
11:52
least that's what they think because I did.
11:54
I broke out easily. But
11:56
I almost froze to death. Thankfully,
11:59
I will. I was able to go
12:01
into a bodega up there that
12:04
was being robbed by Bernie. And I
12:06
said, oh my goodness, there's
12:08
another bear out here. You look
12:10
as white as the snow that's surrounding us. And
12:13
Bernie, what did you say? I
12:15
said, I am Prince
12:17
Bernie of the neighboring kingdom.
12:22
And I said, well, that's terrific. What
12:24
are you doing stealing all these
12:26
slurpees from this place? And it's
12:28
a funny story. I said, I
12:31
left my palace with
12:34
no provisions. I'm
12:36
not used to packing things for myself
12:38
when I set out upon my mission
12:40
to make my
12:42
kingdom the greatest and coziest
12:45
polar kingdom there ever was.
12:49
So I had to rob a bodega
12:51
in the nearby kingdom just to- Arctic
12:53
bodega, mm-hmm. It was just the one
12:55
that was up there. They must get
12:57
robbed a lot. They simply must. And
12:59
they also must have recognized me. I
13:02
don't know why they didn't simply accept my word
13:06
that I would pay them back handsomely.
13:09
The currency has my face on it.
13:11
Anyway, I didn't
13:13
have any currency at the time, but
13:16
I really wanted a lot of slurpees. Yeah,
13:18
so as it turns out,
13:21
I had been spending my time in
13:23
the evening to keep away the shivers
13:26
of the cold. I
13:28
occupied myself with forging more
13:30
money or counterfeiting as it's
13:33
called. I found out when
13:36
I was on trial and I said,
13:38
hey, don't worry about it. Let me pay
13:40
for it. And I paid for those slurpees
13:42
with my fake money. And
13:45
we got out of there
13:47
just fine. That person didn't recognize it. It was
13:49
fake money. I think they were so put off
13:51
by the experience. They were just happy to have
13:54
Bernie out of the store. And
13:56
Bernie was able to take me someplace warm. And
13:59
we... We told each other a lot of
14:01
stories while we were doing that. And
14:04
I realized that a big part of
14:06
my problem with my various criminal enterprises
14:08
is that I didn't have a great
14:10
muscle or a driver. And
14:13
that's where I came in. We
14:15
ate it off famously. You
14:17
see, I appreciated the
14:20
portrait drawing on
14:22
the good doctor's false currency
14:24
better than my own minting
14:27
system. And so we
14:29
became fast friends and I drove
14:31
us to the next place that
14:33
we went, which is a funny
14:35
story because that's actually how I
14:38
met reboot. Oh, wow.
14:40
Yeah. So we were
14:42
living out of my car, my
14:44
future car that has a
14:46
Wi-Fi signal. The
14:49
far flung future we live in where
14:51
cars have Wi-Fi. Yes.
14:57
Eat your heart out, Isaac Asimov. Okay.
15:01
What a dick. Here's the thing.
15:04
We were parked on the side
15:06
of the road enjoying the wealth
15:08
of snacks that we had taken
15:10
from the next bodega that we
15:12
had cased. And
15:15
we noticed a little guy wandering
15:17
around. Just
15:20
a little red panda sort
15:22
of skittering here and there. And
15:25
then they posted up on
15:27
our bumper and I came out and I said, what
15:30
are you doing? Reboot,
15:32
what did you say? I said, I'm
15:35
streaming the traitor. That's
15:38
right. And boy,
15:40
I didn't know what that meant. And
15:42
I still forget. What did that mean? It
15:44
means I was streaming the show,
15:46
the traitor on my tablet and
15:49
I needed a Wi-Fi signal. And
15:51
we were so bored. So
15:54
then we all watched the traitor together as
15:57
we were driving. Very dangerous.
