00:00:04,588 --> 00:00:06,631
_

2
00:00:11,195 --> 00:00:13,695
Keep an eye out for her dearly beloved.

3
00:00:13,719 --> 00:00:15,721
Little bird told me Shadow's on his way.

4
00:00:16,935 --> 00:00:18,526
I just need to get to Cairo.

5
00:00:18,550 --> 00:00:19,788
It's Cay-row.

6
00:00:19,812 --> 00:00:21,443
It's Cay-row? Cay-row?

7
00:00:22,558 --> 00:00:26,645
I was old in the desert before they
sacrificed the first horse to you.

8
00:00:27,341 --> 00:00:29,169
I will be heard.

9
00:00:29,194 --> 00:00:33,149
I wonder, if you don't choose a side,

10
00:00:33,173 --> 00:00:35,349
will you be trampled by both?

11
00:00:38,439 --> 00:00:41,940
Mrs. Moon and I have
a date with my old friend Argus.

12
00:00:41,964 --> 00:00:44,315
The man with all the eyes Argus Panoptes.

13
00:00:44,523 --> 00:00:45,944
I need you to kill him.

14
00:00:45,968 --> 00:00:47,729
He's been playing both sides

15
00:00:47,753 --> 00:00:49,465
and I need to get him off the field.

16
00:00:49,466 --> 00:00:51,792
He dies, your coin recharges.

17
00:00:51,816 --> 00:00:54,216
Live to see the future with Shadow

18
00:00:54,241 --> 00:00:56,927
that you've put so much
unearned faith in.

19
00:00:56,951 --> 00:01:00,061
I told Argus
to upgrade this hub eons ago!

20
00:01:00,085 --> 00:01:03,401
Get your man in line!

21
00:01:03,784 --> 00:01:05,403
Um, guys?

22
00:01:06,526 --> 00:01:07,744
Never mind.

24
00:04:44,890 --> 00:04:45,934
Listen.

25
00:05:01,587 --> 00:05:02,912
I know Bach.

26
00:05:02,936 --> 00:05:04,267
Listen.

27
00:05:08,561 --> 00:05:11,733
He'd only just returned from a trip
to find that his wife had died.

28
00:05:12,946 --> 00:05:14,643
Bach had already lost three children.

29
00:05:16,906 --> 00:05:18,364
He would lose seven more.

30
00:05:21,476 --> 00:05:23,077
This is grief.

31
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,045
And yet...

32
00:05:27,221 --> 00:05:29,208
The rising notes of joy...

33
00:05:30,659 --> 00:05:32,795
...shattering his own rules.

34
00:05:34,446 --> 00:05:35,708
Can you hear it?

35
00:05:40,147 --> 00:05:42,604
This is how men like me pray.

36
00:06:02,529 --> 00:06:06,032
_

37
00:06:31,677 --> 00:06:33,263
Play it again.

38
00:07:22,249 --> 00:07:23,337
This is...

39
00:07:25,687 --> 00:07:28,494
It's beautiful, like Bach.

40
00:07:30,039 --> 00:07:31,581
You composed this?

41
00:07:32,477 --> 00:07:35,042
Well, I-I created the engine that did.

42
00:07:35,567 --> 00:07:39,068
I translated all of Bach's
cantatas into a database

43
00:07:39,092 --> 00:07:41,026
then wrote a program
that segmented the notes

44
00:07:41,050 --> 00:07:42,550
into digital objects

45
00:07:42,574 --> 00:07:46,888
the way that Bach statistically
intended to. Um...

46
00:07:50,538 --> 00:07:54,388
But everything it created was
mechanical, artificial.

47
00:07:54,412 --> 00:07:56,825
The real insight was in programming

48
00:07:56,849 --> 00:07:59,591
violations to the predictable variations.

49
00:08:01,908 --> 00:08:04,238
I gave it permission
to shatter the rules.

50
00:08:06,380 --> 00:08:08,034
The computer composed this?

51
00:08:09,337 --> 00:08:10,503
Yeah.

52
00:08:18,523 --> 00:08:20,264
It's writing more now.

53
00:10:25,780 --> 00:10:27,631
I'm glad you came.

54
00:10:44,431 --> 00:10:45,650
No, no, no, no.

55
00:10:47,193 --> 00:10:49,891
My wife, she'll kill you.

56
00:11:14,786 --> 00:11:16,597
Not me.

57
00:12:08,883 --> 00:12:11,068
Let it happen.

58
00:12:49,707 --> 00:12:51,317
Now rest.

59
00:13:02,894 --> 00:13:04,121
Let it go.

60
00:14:16,837 --> 00:14:18,028
Good morning.

61
00:14:19,492 --> 00:14:21,015
Did you sleep well?

62
00:14:23,627 --> 00:14:24,628
Huh?

63
00:14:26,325 --> 00:14:27,805
Did you sleep well?

64
00:14:31,635 --> 00:14:32,786
Well, there was...

65
00:14:33,243 --> 00:14:34,360
Well...

66
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,381
Yeah. Yeah, it was good.

67
00:14:40,144 --> 00:14:41,218
Good.

68
00:14:50,828 --> 00:14:55,330
So, this is a coroner's office?

69
00:14:55,354 --> 00:14:59,116
Coroners are a political
appointment around here.

70
00:14:59,140 --> 00:15:01,945
His job is to kick the corpse.

71
00:15:01,969 --> 00:15:04,948
If it doesn't kick him back,
he signs the death certificate.

72
00:15:04,972 --> 00:15:07,777
I'm what they call a prosector.

73
00:15:07,801 --> 00:15:09,605
I work for the county medical examiner.

74
00:15:09,629 --> 00:15:11,687
I do autopsies and save

75
00:15:11,711 --> 00:15:13,241
tissue samples for analysis.

76
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,046
In addition, we are a funeral parlor,

77
00:15:16,070 --> 00:15:19,484
serving Cairo, Illinois, since 1863

78
00:15:19,508 --> 00:15:23,010
when it was a flourishing town
at the crossing of two rivers.

79
00:15:23,859 --> 00:15:26,709
We could go back much longer
than that, of course,

80
00:15:26,733 --> 00:15:30,601
but it wasn't until the War Between
the States that we found our niche.

81
00:15:31,281 --> 00:15:33,049
That was when we became
the funeral parlor

82
00:15:33,074 --> 00:15:34,456
for the colored folks hereabouts.

83
00:15:41,530 --> 00:15:45,449
Before that, no one
thought of us as colored...

84
00:15:46,623 --> 00:15:51,372
Foreign maybe, exotic and dark,
but not colored.

85
00:15:51,931 --> 00:15:55,209
And it's strange, when they talk
about African Americans.

86
00:15:55,638 --> 00:15:58,295
My colleagues and I never
thought of ourselves as African.

87
00:15:58,765 --> 00:16:01,256
We were the people of the Nile.

88
00:16:03,727 --> 00:16:06,860
And then you settle in a town
called Cairo?

89
00:16:07,469 --> 00:16:08,620
Seems appropriate.

90
00:16:08,644 --> 00:16:10,995
Mm. Chicken. Egg.

91
00:16:21,962 --> 00:16:23,654
Was there, uh...

92
00:16:24,704 --> 00:16:26,198
Was there anyone else around?

93
00:16:28,447 --> 00:16:31,620
She's not here. Your wife.

94
00:16:35,193 --> 00:16:36,417
You know where she is?

95
00:16:42,112 --> 00:16:43,112
No.

96
00:16:44,463 --> 00:16:46,218
Mr. Ibis, please.

97
00:16:48,032 --> 00:16:50,164
They're different when they come back.

98
00:16:51,557 --> 00:16:53,970
Like any formative life experience,

99
00:16:53,994 --> 00:16:56,645
death changes you.

100
00:16:59,391 --> 00:17:01,238
I'm sure your wife is lovely,

101
00:17:01,262 --> 00:17:04,194
but she's not the same person she was.

102
00:17:09,183 --> 00:17:10,576
Good. You're up!

103
00:17:11,387 --> 00:17:13,580
So, should we seize the day by the ass

104
00:17:13,605 --> 00:17:15,831
before she finds a new dance partner?

105
00:17:16,712 --> 00:17:18,667
And then, where would we be, huh?

106
00:17:19,454 --> 00:17:22,504
Like floral patterns on a wall.

107
00:17:25,504 --> 00:17:28,633
Oh. What a beautiful day
for a drive, Shadow.

108
00:17:30,509 --> 00:17:31,989
Did you get a good night's sleep, huh?

109
00:17:32,765 --> 00:17:36,018
Time to heal your wounds?
Someone to lick your wounds? Mm?

110
00:17:37,811 --> 00:17:39,668
I need to find Laura.

111
00:17:39,692 --> 00:17:40,725
She's around here somewhere.

112
00:17:40,750 --> 00:17:42,133
I don't know why, it's
weird, but I feel it.

113
00:17:42,157 --> 00:17:45,527
Only humans could've come up with
monogamy, an unnatural concept.

114
00:17:46,133 --> 00:17:47,674
Enjoy your life, my boy.

115
00:17:47,698 --> 00:17:50,722
Fuck it, embrace it, exercise
neither temperance nor restraint,

116
00:17:50,746 --> 00:17:52,550
and leave the past where it belongs:

117
00:17:52,574 --> 00:17:55,704
in the past. Now, forward to St. Louis.

118
00:17:56,927 --> 00:17:58,499
What's in St. Louis?

119
00:17:58,842 --> 00:18:01,890
Big city, big money.

120
00:18:01,914 --> 00:18:04,213
Betty here doesn't run on
butterflies and wishes.

121
00:18:04,933 --> 00:18:08,088
Money is the most influential
god in America.

122
00:18:08,112 --> 00:18:10,844
Untouchable asshole,
but his stock never falls.

123
00:18:51,219 --> 00:18:53,011
How you know Gramma?

124
00:18:54,332 --> 00:18:55,806
You friends with Ida?

125
00:18:56,683 --> 00:18:57,909
Who's Ida?

126
00:18:58,423 --> 00:18:59,685
My mother.

127
00:19:02,678 --> 00:19:07,109
You look city, so I thought
maybe you came here with her.

128
00:19:08,259 --> 00:19:09,260
No.

129
00:19:11,636 --> 00:19:13,028
No. Figures.

130
00:19:14,170 --> 00:19:15,736
She's not coming down here.

131
00:19:18,225 --> 00:19:21,707
So, what, you just here touristing?

132
00:19:22,229 --> 00:19:24,251
I came for a man named Shadow.

133
00:19:27,124 --> 00:19:28,125
Oh.

134
00:19:30,053 --> 00:19:31,967
I'm sorry for your loss.

135
00:19:40,682 --> 00:19:42,603
This casket is empty.

136
00:19:44,904 --> 00:19:46,514
They've got her in the back.

137
00:19:47,441 --> 00:19:48,878
The service is in a day or two.

138
00:19:49,735 --> 00:19:51,153
Then who do you pray to?

139
00:19:52,886 --> 00:19:57,326
Reverend Hutchins says that all
things are a matter of ideas.

140
00:19:58,744 --> 00:20:01,997
And God is just one idea.

141
00:20:03,444 --> 00:20:05,403
The good reverend enjoys the theater.

142
00:20:07,666 --> 00:20:08,884
He's quoting Beneatha.

143
00:20:09,885 --> 00:20:10,886
Who?

144
00:20:11,539 --> 00:20:13,517
Beneatha grew tired of God

145
00:20:13,541 --> 00:20:16,651
getting credit for all the
things the human race achieves

146
00:20:16,675 --> 00:20:18,764
through stubborn effort.

147
00:20:19,893 --> 00:20:24,227
Beneatha is the daughter and
nonbeliever from A Raisin in the Sun.

148
00:20:26,749 --> 00:20:29,775
A woman's heart should never be
so hidden in God

149
00:20:30,388 --> 00:20:32,277
that she cannot hear her own truth.

150
00:20:36,564 --> 00:20:38,368
According to Maya Angelou,

151
00:20:38,392 --> 00:20:39,910
a woman's heart

152
00:20:40,699 --> 00:20:42,954
should be hidden in God

153
00:20:44,311 --> 00:20:47,959
so that a man has to seek Him

154
00:20:48,707 --> 00:20:51,088
just to find her.

155
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,017
My faith is of a different kind.

156
00:20:54,690 --> 00:20:57,284
Must be, the way your ass is
crisscrossing back and forth,

157
00:20:57,309 --> 00:20:58,595
across the battlefield.

158
00:20:58,934 --> 00:21:01,973
Hither, tither, and yon

159
00:21:02,329 --> 00:21:04,394
in the middle of a war.

160
00:21:04,418 --> 00:21:07,093
Like you ain't got a care in the world.

161
00:21:07,117 --> 00:21:09,439
You need not fear me.

162
00:21:09,941 --> 00:21:13,029
World would've had an easier
time convincing me to join him

163
00:21:13,054 --> 00:21:14,778
if he had not killed Zorya.

164
00:21:15,777 --> 00:21:17,799
Make sure Wednesday understands.

165
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,464
So, you crisscrossing and
stepping in the name of love?

166
00:21:24,488 --> 00:21:26,890
Would you prefer I hide
in a foxhole and wait

167
00:21:26,915 --> 00:21:28,727
until things are more to your liking?

168
00:21:29,878 --> 00:21:31,795
I'd need to carefully consider

169
00:21:32,533 --> 00:21:34,622
all the pros and the cons

170
00:21:35,531 --> 00:21:38,093
before I could honestly answer
that question.

171
00:21:39,018 --> 00:21:41,499
So, uh, you two know each other?

172
00:21:42,543 --> 00:21:43,588
Yes.

173
00:21:45,340 --> 00:21:46,646
Biblically.

174
00:21:55,241 --> 00:21:56,677
You're nervous.

175
00:21:58,512 --> 00:22:00,035
The fuck I am.

176
00:22:02,302 --> 00:22:03,521
I need you.

177
00:22:04,478 --> 00:22:06,872
You need me.

178
00:22:22,105 --> 00:22:23,889
Were you there when Media died?

179
00:22:24,281 --> 00:22:26,600
Oh, don't be so aggressively dense.

180
00:22:27,153 --> 00:22:28,241
She didn't die.

181
00:22:28,763 --> 00:22:31,855
She changed into you.

182
00:22:32,941 --> 00:22:35,292
I still feel her inside me.

183
00:22:35,964 --> 00:22:40,055
I wonder if the next version of
me will feel me inside of her?

184
00:22:40,079 --> 00:22:43,575
And then the next version
will feel all of us?

185
00:22:49,175 --> 00:22:50,829
Don't you wonder about this stuff?

186
00:22:51,917 --> 00:22:52,918
Do you...

187
00:22:55,616 --> 00:22:59,007
You know the difference between
people and animals?

188
00:23:00,074 --> 00:23:01,074
Hmm?

189
00:23:03,363 --> 00:23:09,059
People are aware they're
going to die someday.

190
00:23:09,326 --> 00:23:12,145
And pray to the Old Gods to stop it.

191
00:23:12,546 --> 00:23:15,899
But an animal is ignorant.

192
00:23:18,422 --> 00:23:19,660
I don't get your point.

193
00:23:19,684 --> 00:23:25,575
My point is Media is not
a person or an animal.

194
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,476
She, unlike you, understood
she's a fucking God.

195
00:23:58,853 --> 00:24:01,695
I trust you know why I summoned you.

196
00:24:04,642 --> 00:24:07,795
Argus. It's a setback, for sure.

197
00:24:07,819 --> 00:24:09,202
No!

198
00:24:11,083 --> 00:24:13,607
No, no.

199
00:24:14,260 --> 00:24:17,307
No more excuses.

200
00:24:18,264 --> 00:24:21,702
War is won...

201
00:24:22,747 --> 00:24:24,227
...with what?

202
00:24:24,645 --> 00:24:27,888
- Information.
- Information.

203
00:24:29,667 --> 00:24:34,853
Do you know what this is?

204
00:24:34,976 --> 00:24:36,127
Blindness.

205
00:24:36,151 --> 00:24:39,858
This is blindness.

206
00:24:40,417 --> 00:24:42,636
Can you please...

207
00:24:44,377 --> 00:24:47,728
...restore my sight?

208
00:24:49,121 --> 00:24:51,708
Oh! I've... ah! I've got
a plan, brand new network.

209
00:24:51,732 --> 00:24:53,493
Oh... I've got a plan!

210
00:24:53,517 --> 00:24:56,322
I've got a brand new network
that'll be faster than Argus.

211
00:24:56,346 --> 00:24:58,585
I've got a guy in Silicon
Valley who fucking owes me.

212
00:24:58,610 --> 00:25:02,631
It'll be a fucking upgrade. Trust me!

213
00:25:30,684 --> 00:25:31,835
Hmm...

214
00:26:12,024 --> 00:26:14,452
I wouldn't recommend
trying to pay with that.

215
00:26:15,990 --> 00:26:17,359
Yeah, you got me thinking.

216
00:26:17,383 --> 00:26:19,021
Ah.

217
00:26:19,045 --> 00:26:22,625
In 1933, Roosevelt took the United
States off the Gold Standard, right?

218
00:26:22,939 --> 00:26:24,053
Yeah, so?

219
00:26:24,077 --> 00:26:27,132
So, you can't just go into a bank and
redeem money for gold or silver.

220
00:26:28,612 --> 00:26:31,242
You said money is the most
powerful god in America.

221
00:26:31,266 --> 00:26:33,013
But money isn't actually worth anything.

222
00:26:35,227 --> 00:26:37,708
I have a piece of paper, hm?

223
00:26:39,927 --> 00:26:42,539
But I want this salt shaker.

224
00:26:43,299 --> 00:26:46,943
You have the salt shaker, but you're
willing to take my piece of paper

225
00:26:46,967 --> 00:26:48,611
for your salt shaker.

226
00:26:49,328 --> 00:26:50,503
Now, why would you do that?

227
00:26:51,112 --> 00:26:52,434
Because...

228
00:26:52,458 --> 00:26:55,179
this isn't actually
a piece of paper; it's a story.

229
00:26:55,203 --> 00:26:59,314
And the story that you've heard
over and over and over again.

230
00:26:59,338 --> 00:27:01,795
And it's been drummed into you
that this is worth something.

231
00:27:01,819 --> 00:27:03,449
This is of value.

232
00:27:03,473 --> 00:27:06,365
No matter what country,
culture, or religion.

233
00:27:06,389 --> 00:27:10,383
The whole world loves... money.

234
00:27:11,219 --> 00:27:12,830
The greatest story ever told.

235
00:27:13,439 --> 00:27:15,286
So, Money.

236
00:27:15,310 --> 00:27:18,662
We get him on our side,
Mr. World won't mean shit.

237
00:27:19,469 --> 00:27:21,211
- Oh.
- Grimnir. What do you want?

238
00:27:21,235 --> 00:27:22,812
Well, a cup of coffee would be nice.

239
00:27:25,016 --> 00:27:26,689
Don't you work in Wisconsin?

240
00:27:26,713 --> 00:27:28,996
I am at every Motel America.

241
00:27:29,020 --> 00:27:31,738
Entrepreneurship is not some picnic.

242
00:27:31,939 --> 00:27:35,568
Mama-ji and her followers own more
than half the motels in America.

243
00:27:35,592 --> 00:27:37,849
And we don't achieve this
by sitting on our asses

244
00:27:37,874 --> 00:27:40,268
or grifting about like this one.

245
00:27:40,292 --> 00:27:42,923
You think America was eager
to hand over her money bags

246
00:27:42,947 --> 00:27:45,376
to the hungry, the tired, and the poor?

247
00:27:45,950 --> 00:27:47,928
We battle for every goddamn scrap.

248
00:27:47,952 --> 00:27:49,214
You love it.

249
00:27:49,997 --> 00:27:52,236
Victory is sweet on the tongue,

250
00:27:52,260 --> 00:27:55,637
and profit is sweet on the pocket.

251
00:27:55,784 --> 00:27:58,528
But you miss the real battles,
don't you Kali, eh?

252
00:27:59,180 --> 00:28:00,892
The screams and the cries.

253
00:28:01,265 --> 00:28:04,553
I recall the day you slew Raktabija.

254
00:28:04,577 --> 00:28:07,338
The only sound that day was
the whisper of the wind

255
00:28:07,362 --> 00:28:10,061
whistling through the blood-soaked grass.

256
00:28:11,323 --> 00:28:14,030
- We had a good time, huh?
- Mm.

257
00:28:29,863 --> 00:28:31,624
He will be the death of you.

258
00:28:31,648 --> 00:28:33,388
You know that, right?

259
00:28:36,515 --> 00:28:37,647
What'd she say?

260
00:28:43,747 --> 00:28:45,687
Welcome. Please scan finger.

261
00:28:56,110 --> 00:29:02,763
_

262
00:29:02,766 --> 00:29:05,373
Eat a giant bag of dicks.

263
00:29:12,168 --> 00:29:13,969
_

264
00:29:14,128 --> 00:29:17,839
_

265
00:29:19,826 --> 00:29:20,826
Uh-huh...

266
00:29:24,722 --> 00:29:27,614
_

267
00:29:27,617 --> 00:29:28,661
I...

268
00:29:30,271 --> 00:29:33,361
...hate you so much.

269
00:29:56,689 --> 00:29:58,134
Hello, friend.

270
00:29:59,605 --> 00:30:00,970
Hello, friend.

271
00:30:02,608 --> 00:30:04,766
I always thought I might see you again.

272
00:30:07,700 --> 00:30:09,354
Are you here to show me something new?

273
00:30:13,619 --> 00:30:15,578
It's time to get back in the game.

274
00:30:16,927 --> 00:30:20,281
One-point-one-zero-two pounds.

275
00:30:21,975 --> 00:30:23,743
Splenomegaly.

276
00:30:31,028 --> 00:30:32,943
Majesty.

277
00:30:33,683 --> 00:30:35,748
Greetings, Thoth.

278
00:30:35,772 --> 00:30:39,839
You are as lovely as ever.

279
00:30:40,449 --> 00:30:41,754
Liar.

280
00:30:42,050 --> 00:30:44,389
This country has not
been kind to my face.

281
00:30:45,098 --> 00:30:48,785
You are as perfect and
vibrant as the Euphrates.

282
00:30:51,528 --> 00:30:52,834
Your sister.

283
00:30:53,572 --> 00:30:54,878
It has been too long.

284
00:30:55,966 --> 00:30:57,097
Y'all done yet?

285
00:30:57,917 --> 00:31:00,144
'Cuz I'm gettin' bored
watchin' this bullshit.

286
00:31:00,753 --> 00:31:02,156
Why do we fight, Anansi?

287
00:31:03,234 --> 00:31:04,646
We have known each other since infancy.

288
00:31:04,670 --> 00:31:06,577
We should be on the same side.

289
00:31:07,194 --> 00:31:08,369
I thought we were.

290
00:31:08,848 --> 00:31:09,999
Are we not?

291
00:31:10,023 --> 00:31:11,416
Now, Anansi.

292
00:31:11,677 --> 00:31:13,505
She is one of us.

293
00:31:14,027 --> 00:31:15,048
A survivor.

294
00:31:15,072 --> 00:31:17,137
You old as dirt, bird-beak.

295
00:31:17,161 --> 00:31:19,007
Why the fuck you didn't ride
the carousel?

296
00:31:19,859 --> 00:31:21,252
I choose peace.

297
00:31:24,559 --> 00:31:27,843
Egyptians told tales of
the sacred Book of Thoth,

298
00:31:27,867 --> 00:31:31,064
which contains the secrets of the Gods

299
00:31:31,088 --> 00:31:34,272
and brings misery, pain, and suffering

300
00:31:34,569 --> 00:31:36,399
to anyone who reads it.

301
00:31:36,833 --> 00:31:40,611
And grants a bird's-eye view to he...

302
00:31:41,533 --> 00:31:42,752
Who writes it.

303
00:31:44,405 --> 00:31:47,827
I am old as dirt, and I have
seen things as you have.

304
00:31:48,366 --> 00:31:50,038
Why do you bring this...

305
00:31:51,122 --> 00:31:54,589
...rage to my doorstep?

306
00:31:55,548 --> 00:31:59,714
You ever notice how traveling
makes your mind roll thunder,

307
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,134
like a train moving down the track?

308
00:32:04,095 --> 00:32:06,732
Except you don't know where the
fuck that mind train is headed.

309
00:32:07,777 --> 00:32:10,083
And then, all of a sudden, plop...

310
00:32:10,562 --> 00:32:13,019
an idea shits in your head.

311
00:32:13,043 --> 00:32:16,350
And you think that shit smells good.

312
00:32:17,395 --> 00:32:21,791
Peace is a beautiful but shitty idea.

313
00:32:22,747 --> 00:32:26,115
Only a Goddess can adorn
the sarcophagus of a God.

314
00:32:27,274 --> 00:32:30,119
So, help me understand what
these New Gods giveth

315
00:32:31,322 --> 00:32:33,247
and what they taketh away.

316
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,608
Your thirst does not inspire our
confidence, only our curiosity.

317
00:32:42,420 --> 00:32:43,987
I am not a God

318
00:32:44,976 --> 00:32:47,445
in the sense that I can
tolerate exploitation,

319
00:32:47,470 --> 00:32:48,576
oppression, and repression.

320
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,212
My worshippers know freedom ain't free.

321
00:32:52,676 --> 00:32:56,739
They know the most potent weapon
of control for the oppressor

322
00:32:57,392 --> 00:32:59,501
is the mind of the oppressed.

323
00:32:59,526 --> 00:33:02,652
They know slavery is not a condition.

324
00:33:03,441 --> 00:33:05,356
Slavery is a cult.

325
00:33:06,313 --> 00:33:09,771
Human trafficking is a cult.

326
00:33:09,795 --> 00:33:14,191
Slavery got a rebrand like
muthafuckin' the Alt Right.

327
00:33:15,627 --> 00:33:16,846
And... snatched.

328
00:33:18,586 --> 00:33:19,936
Another one gone.

329
00:33:22,155 --> 00:33:24,003
Every 30 seconds,

330
00:33:24,027 --> 00:33:27,180
another chocolate-brown,
caramel, yellow, high-yellow,

331
00:33:27,204 --> 00:33:28,616
red bone, refugee girl

332
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,513
with melanin in her skin gets snatched.

333
00:33:34,385 --> 00:33:38,258
Every... thirty... seconds.

334
00:33:40,521 --> 00:33:42,543
And to make matters worse,

335
00:33:42,567 --> 00:33:45,700
these dazzling new plantation
owners built a pipeline

336
00:33:46,423 --> 00:33:49,811
to take our children
from school to prison

337
00:33:49,835 --> 00:33:52,076
quicker than a cut can bleed.

338
00:33:53,059 --> 00:33:56,735
And the lucky ones go
from school to the NFL,

339
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,875
where they don't even
let them niggahs take a knee.

340
00:34:00,324 --> 00:34:02,389
They've been programmed from birth

341
00:34:02,413 --> 00:34:04,304
with shitty food options,

342
00:34:04,328 --> 00:34:07,873
contaminated drinking water,
gun violence, police brutality,

343
00:34:07,897 --> 00:34:11,006
and trauma after trauma after trauma.

344
00:34:11,030 --> 00:34:13,922
PTSD? No therapy.

345
00:34:13,946 --> 00:34:16,620
Missing? No Amber Alert.

346
00:34:16,644 --> 00:34:17,644
Alone?

347
00:34:19,734 --> 00:34:20,866
Vulnerable.

348
00:34:24,444 --> 00:34:25,924
Snatched.

349
00:34:27,830 --> 00:34:29,353
Another one gone.

350
00:34:30,528 --> 00:34:31,616
I hear you, Brother.

351
00:34:32,704 --> 00:34:34,662
And I hear them.

352
00:34:36,577 --> 00:34:38,539
I hear each voice,

353
00:34:39,189 --> 00:34:42,235
and I write each name.

354
00:34:43,007 --> 00:34:46,464
We have lived long enough to know
these troubles are timeless.

355
00:34:47,357 --> 00:34:49,315
Suffering is not sacred.

356
00:34:49,764 --> 00:34:52,115
And moral law is final.

357
00:34:52,877 --> 00:34:58,017
Sooner or later they all lay before me.

358
00:35:00,775 --> 00:35:02,516
War need not be the answer.

359
00:35:13,332 --> 00:35:14,332
My Queen.

360
00:35:16,008 --> 00:35:18,881
The world assumes white people
are naturally good.

361
00:35:20,534 --> 00:35:22,469
So when something bad happens,

362
00:35:22,493 --> 00:35:26,647
it's a good person doing a bad thing.

363
00:35:26,671 --> 00:35:28,629
They assume black people...

364
00:35:29,935 --> 00:35:31,782
are naturally bad,

365
00:35:31,806 --> 00:35:33,480
so when something good happens,

366
00:35:33,504 --> 00:35:37,223
it's only a matter of time
before that animal's true nature

367
00:35:37,247 --> 00:35:39,902
rears its ugly head.

368
00:35:40,670 --> 00:35:43,934
How much longer can we afford to wait?

369
00:35:44,941 --> 00:35:46,294
You keep track of days,

370
00:35:46,319 --> 00:35:50,361
numbering the years for scribes
that record human history.

371
00:35:50,913 --> 00:35:52,349
Do you see progress?

372
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:57,974
I count 1, 2, 3
African Gods in this room,

373
00:35:58,805 --> 00:36:01,097
and two of them want
to exercise restraint,

374
00:36:01,875 --> 00:36:07,211
and let the donkey-work continue
while you live your best life!

375
00:36:08,321 --> 00:36:10,584
War is upon us!

376
00:36:11,411 --> 00:36:13,979
An old white lady is dead.

377
00:36:15,633 --> 00:36:18,568
Wednesday avenges Zorya Vechernyaya,

378
00:36:18,592 --> 00:36:20,808
but if it was a dead black lady,

379
00:36:22,683 --> 00:36:24,381
like this sweet old soul,

380
00:36:26,426 --> 00:36:27,950
Czernobog's hammer...

381
00:36:30,691 --> 00:36:32,041
...would not swing.

382
00:36:36,871 --> 00:36:38,961
Your words move me, Anansi.

383
00:36:41,572 --> 00:36:42,616
You see me.

384
00:36:44,096 --> 00:36:46,292
You and Ibis see the Goddess,

385
00:36:47,491 --> 00:36:48,491
the Queen.

386
00:36:50,015 --> 00:36:52,365
These men today look right through me.

387
00:37:10,166 --> 00:37:12,485
This country has done things to us.

388
00:37:13,778 --> 00:37:17,651
We have done things to us.

389
00:37:19,784 --> 00:37:21,911
So, what do you propose?

390
00:37:22,874 --> 00:37:25,081
I propose we have a drink.

391
00:37:33,841 --> 00:37:36,258
A King needs a Queen.

392
00:37:38,020 --> 00:37:40,137
The death of Argus left an opening.

393
00:37:40,544 --> 00:37:42,261
Argus was a relic,

394
00:37:42,285 --> 00:37:45,133
a desiccating, necrotizing,

395
00:37:45,157 --> 00:37:48,604
geriatric, organic sack of redundancies.

396
00:37:51,729 --> 00:37:53,054
CCTV?

397
00:37:54,253 --> 00:37:56,299
Fuck that noise!

398
00:37:57,090 --> 00:38:00,322
I fart out a coltan-encased microchip

399
00:38:00,346 --> 00:38:02,522
in cherry pink
and they line up for miles.

400
00:38:03,828 --> 00:38:05,047
Miles!

401
00:38:06,043 --> 00:38:09,842
To carry trackers,
give up their locations,

402
00:38:10,330 --> 00:38:11,593
bank numbers,

403
00:38:12,501 --> 00:38:14,459
fucking facial IDs!

404
00:38:15,100 --> 00:38:17,992
An endless catalogue of every fuck,

405
00:38:18,016 --> 00:38:22,847
every bite, every disgusting nose hair.

406
00:38:24,631 --> 00:38:28,244
Every dirty little secret.

407
00:38:29,419 --> 00:38:31,595
Every whisper they thought
no one could hear.

408
00:38:34,119 --> 00:38:35,773
But I digress.

409
00:38:36,556 --> 00:38:39,081
What I'm here to discuss...

410
00:38:39,907 --> 00:38:41,083
is this.

411
00:38:44,390 --> 00:38:49,003
Argus had a lotta fucking eyes.

412
00:38:49,743 --> 00:38:50,831
But...

413
00:38:55,053 --> 00:38:59,275
I have given of my flesh to my disciples

414
00:39:01,712 --> 00:39:03,211
and they have returned

415
00:39:03,235 --> 00:39:05,933
the favor one-thousand fold.

416
00:39:07,587 --> 00:39:08,675
And now?

417
00:39:15,334 --> 00:39:17,510
Eyes are...

418
00:39:25,083 --> 00:39:26,285
You get?

419
00:39:27,303 --> 00:39:28,782
You ken?

420
00:39:30,915 --> 00:39:32,792
You comprende?

421
00:39:41,545 --> 00:39:42,883
About time.

422
00:39:43,667 --> 00:39:44,929
Now what're you doing?

423
00:39:45,103 --> 00:39:46,680
What we came to do.

424
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:51,414
Candy?

425
00:39:51,771 --> 00:39:54,262
Oh, yes. I want a gold bar
and some nuggets.

426
00:39:54,286 --> 00:39:55,785
Credit or debit?

427
00:39:55,809 --> 00:39:58,440
- Oh, credit.
- Name?

428
00:39:58,464 --> 00:40:00,858
Odin. The Allfather. Never
failed to pay for my candy.

429
00:40:01,467 --> 00:40:03,053
Your name?

430
00:40:03,077 --> 00:40:04,925
Oh, he's just my assistant.

431
00:40:04,949 --> 00:40:06,325
Shadow Moon.

432
00:40:12,217 --> 00:40:14,741
There is no account
under the name Shadow Moon.

433
00:40:15,625 --> 00:40:18,397
That's not the name
on his birth certificate.

434
00:40:19,246 --> 00:40:21,550
There is no account
under the name Shadow Moon.

435
00:40:21,574 --> 00:40:24,301
No debit, no credit.

436
00:40:26,318 --> 00:40:28,905
Oh, so, no debit, no credit.
Not even a fucking car loan?

437
00:40:28,929 --> 00:40:30,820
What are you, some off-the-grid freak?

438
00:40:30,844 --> 00:40:33,040
I never had any need for it.
Laura did it all.

439
00:40:33,064 --> 00:40:36,870
Do you know how much Money hates that?

440
00:40:36,894 --> 00:40:38,361
Access denied.

441
00:40:38,385 --> 00:40:41,179
No, this man is not relevant.
He's not looking for an audience.

442
00:40:41,203 --> 00:40:42,876
He's just the hired help.

443
00:40:42,900 --> 00:40:45,114
Access denied.

444
00:40:47,296 --> 00:40:49,187
I am the resurrection and the life.

445
00:40:49,211 --> 00:40:51,082
Those who believe in me will
live, even though they die.

446
00:40:52,344 --> 00:40:54,061
I am the resurrection and the life.

447
00:40:54,085 --> 00:40:55,585
Those who believe in me
will live, even though they die.

448
00:40:55,609 --> 00:40:56,869
What does He give you?

449
00:40:58,971 --> 00:41:00,146
Jesus?

450
00:41:03,268 --> 00:41:06,619
It's either I pray or I run five miles.

451
00:41:07,602 --> 00:41:11,581
And I can't run no more, jacked
up my leg in Division One, so...

452
00:41:14,105 --> 00:41:15,846
I guess he gives me comfort.

453
00:41:16,801 --> 00:41:19,023
A God should provide more than comfort.

454
00:41:22,888 --> 00:41:23,888
He does.

455
00:41:26,762 --> 00:41:28,415
Community.

456
00:41:29,903 --> 00:41:31,368
Feeling like there's a point.

457
00:41:32,819 --> 00:41:35,706
I mean, I'm still mad about my leg,

458
00:41:36,910 --> 00:41:38,751
but if I hadn't messed it up,

459
00:41:39,652 --> 00:41:42,922
I would probably be in college,

460
00:41:44,744 --> 00:41:48,177
and instead I was here with
Gramma while she was sick, so...

461
00:41:50,228 --> 00:41:51,795
maybe it was meant to be.

462
00:41:54,885 --> 00:41:57,104
And maybe I don't gotta be mad
about it, you know?

463
00:41:58,192 --> 00:42:00,238
Gramma prayed for patience:

464
00:42:02,849 --> 00:42:04,242
"Lord, like Job,

465
00:42:05,374 --> 00:42:06,723
let me be patient."

466
00:42:08,432 --> 00:42:09,912
Job was wealthy.

467
00:42:10,683 --> 00:42:12,032
Did her Lord give her wealth?

468
00:42:14,967 --> 00:42:16,372
This is Cairo!

469
00:42:17,255 --> 00:42:19,500
I don't think money's got our address.

470
00:42:21,303 --> 00:42:24,630
Last week, I was reading this blog,

471
00:42:25,273 --> 00:42:28,208
says how in America the
black woman makes 60 cents

472
00:42:28,233 --> 00:42:29,939
for every dollar a white man makes,

473
00:42:29,963 --> 00:42:33,508
and Gramma's all: "Well,
here in Cairo, honey,

474
00:42:33,532 --> 00:42:35,858
a black woman's lucky if she's
got 2 cents to rub together,

475
00:42:35,882 --> 00:42:38,078
and even if she's got a pocket
full of nickels,

476
00:42:38,102 --> 00:42:39,118
that don't mean that that money's

477
00:42:39,143 --> 00:42:40,559
gonna make her suck a bedsheet up her ass

478
00:42:40,583 --> 00:42:42,019
and fall asleep on a cloud."

479
00:42:47,154 --> 00:42:48,904
And then she laughed real hard.

480
00:42:51,634 --> 00:42:54,827
She was pretty sick,
but she laughed all the time.

481
00:42:56,990 --> 00:42:59,950
She never let anger or jealousy
guide her.

482
00:43:02,779 --> 00:43:04,713
Had her church, had her community.

483
00:43:04,737 --> 00:43:09,002
She took care of me and Jamarr
when didn't nobody else want us.

484
00:43:10,221 --> 00:43:11,353
She was content.

485
00:43:13,267 --> 00:43:14,878
He was not content.

486
00:43:17,576 --> 00:43:21,270
He was a rebel, a troublemaker.

487
00:43:24,235 --> 00:43:26,817
They say he died for your sins,
but that is not the truth.

488
00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:31,196
He died because he angered
the men in power.

489
00:43:32,678 --> 00:43:35,159
He refused to be cowed...

490
00:43:36,595 --> 00:43:37,911
controlled.

491
00:43:40,077 --> 00:43:42,340
And now look at the power he wields,

492
00:43:44,124 --> 00:43:46,866
the worship he commands.

493
00:43:50,214 --> 00:43:51,911
He was onto something.

494
00:43:56,620 --> 00:43:58,056
I'm Ruby.

495
00:43:59,444 --> 00:44:00,851
Ruby Goodchild.

496
00:44:04,101 --> 00:44:05,755
It's good to meet you, Ruby.

497
00:44:10,203 --> 00:44:13,511
Shadow, will you just buy
some fucking candy? Huh?

498
00:44:14,328 --> 00:44:15,678
Do you see me trying?

499
00:44:16,679 --> 00:44:18,570
I mean, look at this. Huh?

500
00:44:18,594 --> 00:44:20,049
They're not gonna sell me
any fucking candy!

501
00:44:20,073 --> 00:44:22,998
Well, Mama-ji just might kill you.
She already wants to kill me.

502
00:44:23,712 --> 00:44:25,409
You know what? Fuck this.

503
00:44:25,992 --> 00:44:27,796
Why me? Huh?

504
00:44:27,820 --> 00:44:29,276
Oh, not that again.

505
00:44:29,300 --> 00:44:30,538
Yeah, this again. Will you just tell me?

506
00:44:30,562 --> 00:44:31,887
Whimsy.

507
00:44:31,911 --> 00:44:33,870
Why don't you just give me
a fucking answer?

508
00:44:34,436 --> 00:44:35,674
Come on.

509
00:44:35,698 --> 00:44:37,596
- You really want to know?
- Yeah.

510
00:44:38,969 --> 00:44:40,425
You really want to know why I picked you?

511
00:44:40,450 --> 00:44:42,267
Just tell me.

512
00:44:43,176 --> 00:44:47,163
Well, I picked you because I needed
someone with nothing to live for.

513
00:44:47,187 --> 00:44:49,775
With nothing to go home for. With
no one to miss him or love him

514
00:44:49,799 --> 00:44:52,125
or give a shit if he lives or dies.

515
00:44:52,150 --> 00:44:54,401
That's why I picked you,
because you literally mean

516
00:44:54,426 --> 00:44:56,302
nothing to any living person.

517
00:44:56,327 --> 00:44:58,566
Or any dead one either as far as I know.

518
00:44:58,590 --> 00:45:02,689
You have no value, no worth
in this world or the next.

519
00:45:03,019 --> 00:45:04,020
Happy?

520
00:45:06,685 --> 00:45:07,686
Damn.

521
00:45:08,731 --> 00:45:09,731
Good.

522
00:45:13,562 --> 00:45:16,758
See, I've been here
trying to make it all add up.

523
00:45:16,782 --> 00:45:17,890
Oh.

524
00:45:17,914 --> 00:45:20,046
Everything since we met.

525
00:45:20,670 --> 00:45:22,184
Oh, really? How's that going for you?

526
00:45:22,209 --> 00:45:24,157
That little hamster in
the wheel in your brain

527
00:45:24,181 --> 00:45:25,530
make it out yet?

528
00:45:28,011 --> 00:45:29,186
Well, the...

529
00:45:30,927 --> 00:45:33,601
the only thing that makes any sense,

530
00:45:33,625 --> 00:45:37,499
the only explanation that fits
all the facts, is that...

531
00:45:39,849 --> 00:45:41,174
I do have value to you.

532
00:45:43,417 --> 00:45:44,636
See, I don't know why.

533
00:45:46,377 --> 00:45:48,161
You don't want me to know why but...

534
00:45:50,381 --> 00:45:51,600
You need me.

535
00:45:53,906 --> 00:45:54,906
Don't you?

536
00:45:59,259 --> 00:46:03,515
I am handing you the future
on a motherfucking platter.

537
00:46:04,874 --> 00:46:07,809
I'm gonna need you
to cut that edge pronto,

538
00:46:07,833 --> 00:46:09,922
and put some fucking garnish on it.

539
00:46:11,711 --> 00:46:12,712
Show me.

540
00:46:21,238 --> 00:46:23,849
I never did see a God

541
00:46:24,572 --> 00:46:28,999
more effectively argue
his own obsolescence.

542
00:46:30,203 --> 00:46:32,031
What the fuck are you doing here?

543
00:46:33,015 --> 00:46:34,668
Well, go on then.

544
00:46:36,688 --> 00:46:38,383
He's waiting.

545
00:46:40,217 --> 00:46:41,697
Show him.

546
00:46:50,094 --> 00:46:51,094
No?

547
00:46:55,141 --> 00:46:56,534
Then allow me.

548
00:47:16,815 --> 00:47:17,947
Hello, friend.

549
00:47:22,227 --> 00:47:23,750
Hello, friend.

550
00:47:29,436 --> 00:47:30,786
I was literally...

551
00:47:31,874 --> 00:47:34,564
your only friend.

552
00:47:37,706 --> 00:47:40,237
You lonely fuck.

553
00:47:46,802 --> 00:47:50,719
I brought you into the presence of God.

554
00:47:56,812 --> 00:47:59,464
It looks like he's forgotten about you.

555
00:48:15,352 --> 00:48:16,570
Mistake.

556
00:49:00,161 --> 00:49:01,162
Fuck!

557
00:49:26,684 --> 00:49:29,643
Wanna buy some candy? Candy?

558
00:49:30,949 --> 00:49:32,307
There isn't a need to purchase candy.

559
00:49:35,171 --> 00:49:37,782
I retired a God today.

560
00:49:38,652 --> 00:49:40,315
Access granted.

561
00:49:46,486 --> 00:49:48,532
You killed Argus.

562
00:49:49,707 --> 00:49:52,369
And you killed Zorya.

563
00:49:53,667 --> 00:49:56,498
I am sorry about Zorya.

564
00:49:58,368 --> 00:50:02,609
But when you strike with lightning,
you should expect consequences.

565
00:50:02,633 --> 00:50:06,700
Mess with my people, expect
disproportionate consequences.

566
00:50:06,724 --> 00:50:08,354
You got your man back.

567
00:50:08,378 --> 00:50:09,814
It's the principle.

568
00:50:10,772 --> 00:50:12,787
Hello?

569
00:50:12,811 --> 00:50:14,969
Hello?

570
00:50:14,993 --> 00:50:16,821
I'd like to pay.

571
00:50:17,474 --> 00:50:19,084
I'd like to pay.

572
00:50:19,871 --> 00:50:22,174
Have you seen what's
happened to the world?

573
00:50:23,975 --> 00:50:27,154
It isn't 5s, 10s, or 20s
anymore. It isn't cash or gold.

574
00:50:29,778 --> 00:50:34,661
It's zeros and ones,
digitized and encrypted,

575
00:50:35,300 --> 00:50:38,915
sent down fiber-optic cables
at the speed of light

576
00:50:39,714 --> 00:50:44,109
to accounts at banks
with no physical location.

577
00:50:46,895 --> 00:50:48,897
Money loves profit.

578
00:50:56,121 --> 00:50:58,732
And war is always profitable.

579
00:50:59,569 --> 00:51:03,148
It also moves people more
than anything else.

580
00:51:03,172 --> 00:51:07,151
It inflames their passions, something
you would know nothing about.

581
00:51:07,175 --> 00:51:10,808
And the more passionate they get,
the more they spend, spend, spend.

582
00:51:10,832 --> 00:51:11,963
You know that, Money.

583
00:51:13,617 --> 00:51:18,205
You sit at the crossing of two rivers,

584
00:51:19,102 --> 00:51:23,251
waiting for a steamship
that will never come.

585
00:51:24,323 --> 00:51:27,339
Your kind aren't dying; they're dead.

586
00:51:27,718 --> 00:51:29,466
Okay, enough.

587
00:51:30,910 --> 00:51:35,006
I'm honored to have the big dogs in
the God game begging at my table.

588
00:51:35,030 --> 00:51:37,747
But money doesn't make
emotional investments

589
00:51:37,771 --> 00:51:39,662
or invest in emotional entities.

590
00:51:39,686 --> 00:51:42,395
Too much risk in such ventures.

591
00:51:42,864 --> 00:51:45,083
Not enough opportunity.

592
00:51:45,706 --> 00:51:47,796
You could always hedge your bets.

593
00:51:48,712 --> 00:51:50,978
There's no deal here for you
today, gentlemen.

594
00:51:51,002 --> 00:51:53,372
Money stays in the bank.

595
00:51:53,396 --> 00:51:54,866
This is agreeable.

596
00:51:55,485 --> 00:51:57,994
What a sad waste of capital.

597
00:52:06,581 --> 00:52:09,954
I'm gonna win this one. People
like me more than they like you.

598
00:52:09,978 --> 00:52:12,300
I prefer to be feared.

599
00:52:19,068 --> 00:52:21,059
I'm not your enemy.

600
00:53:00,261 --> 00:53:05,381
