1
00:00:02,671 --> 00:00:05,520
"I saw the best minds of my generation

2
00:00:05,546 --> 00:00:08,443
destroyed by madness,

3
00:00:08,486 --> 00:00:12,114
starving, hysterical, naked.

4
00:00:12,140 --> 00:00:13,716
Angelheaded hipsters

5
00:00:13,742 --> 00:00:16,005
burning for the ancient
heavenly connection

6
00:00:16,031 --> 00:00:18,695
to the starry dynamo in
the machinery of night,

7
00:00:18,721 --> 00:00:23,770
floating across the tops of
cities contemplating jazz."

8
00:00:28,234 --> 00:00:31,294
Is that from Howl, by Allen Ginsberg?

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,411
Yeah. He... he performed it

10
00:00:33,437 --> 00:00:35,200
in San Francisco earlier this year.

11
00:00:35,226 --> 00:00:37,302
Ginsberg, he's a Beat poet, isn't he?

12
00:00:37,328 --> 00:00:40,427
That's right, Betty. Yeah, he was
there at the beginning, at Columbia,

13
00:00:40,453 --> 00:00:43,418
with Jack Kerouac and William Burroughs.

14
00:00:43,444 --> 00:00:46,411
Sorry, but... who are the Beats?

15
00:00:46,437 --> 00:00:49,380
- The Beats are...
- Vagabond rebel writers

16
00:00:49,406 --> 00:00:52,123
who reject institutionalized
American values

17
00:00:52,149 --> 00:00:56,148
like materialism, conformity
and heteronormativity.

18
00:00:56,383 --> 00:00:58,195
Heteronormativity?

19
00:00:59,276 --> 00:01:02,796
The Beats have a lot of sex, Archie.

20
00:01:02,953 --> 00:01:05,403
And a lot of it with each other.

21
00:01:05,429 --> 00:01:07,745
Even the men's men, like
Kerouac and Cassidy,

22
00:01:07,771 --> 00:01:09,578
they have girlfriends.

23
00:01:09,804 --> 00:01:12,594
But they also have each other.

24
00:01:12,778 --> 00:01:15,825
Bully for them. Sounds like
my kind of literary movement.

25
00:01:15,851 --> 00:01:18,177
The Beats are a whole counterculture

26
00:01:18,203 --> 00:01:20,302
dedicated to living their
lives a certain way.

27
00:01:20,328 --> 00:01:23,427
Always exploring,
experimenting, hustling,

28
00:01:23,453 --> 00:01:27,398
pushing the boundaries of
human experience. Really living.

29
00:01:29,741 --> 00:01:33,669
Ms. Grundy, are we allowed
to continue reading Howl?

30
00:01:33,695 --> 00:01:36,476
Yes, I already made copies.

31
00:01:36,747 --> 00:01:40,539
Read it, and we will discuss
it at our next meeting.

32
00:01:44,015 --> 00:01:46,216
Bettie Page sure is a dolly and a half.

33
00:01:46,242 --> 00:01:49,263
Oh, she's an icon in fishnets. Even
you will have to agree, Lizzo.

34
00:01:49,289 --> 00:01:50,545
Yeah, she's not bad,

35
00:01:50,588 --> 00:01:53,437
but I wanna let you two kittens
in on a little secret.

36
00:01:53,530 --> 00:01:56,656
That mag's nowheresville compared
to what I just got in the mail.

37
00:01:58,161 --> 00:01:59,950
What are my eyes beholding?

38
00:01:59,976 --> 00:02:02,607
The latest issue of
Femme-and-Inmagazine,

39
00:02:02,633 --> 00:02:04,852
an underground lesbian pin-up mag.

40
00:02:07,457 --> 00:02:09,849
Lizzo, can we borrow this?

41
00:02:10,031 --> 00:02:12,718
Oh, you can keep it, Topaz.
I always buy two copies.

42
00:02:12,992 --> 00:02:15,992
Just, don't get caught with
your hand in the cookie jar.

43
00:02:17,973 --> 00:02:20,802
Whatever you wet rags are
doing tonight, drop it.

44
00:02:20,828 --> 00:02:23,273
I got my hands on a stag film.

45
00:02:23,367 --> 00:02:24,927
Wait, what's a stag film?

46
00:02:24,953 --> 00:02:27,799
Jeez, Andrews, maybe it's time to
get your nose out of those poems.

47
00:02:27,843 --> 00:02:29,149
It's a skin flick,

48
00:02:29,192 --> 00:02:31,107
complete with naked women.

49
00:02:31,151 --> 00:02:33,327
Sometimes more than one.

50
00:02:33,370 --> 00:02:35,388
Where'd you get something like that?

51
00:02:35,414 --> 00:02:38,156
A buddy of mine from Stonewall
Prep, lent it to me.

52
00:02:38,593 --> 00:02:39,916
So who's game?

53
00:02:39,942 --> 00:02:41,761
Oh, come on, Fogarty,
you've got to be horny

54
00:02:41,787 --> 00:02:44,726
with your honey under lock
and key at the Sisters'.

55
00:02:44,903 --> 00:02:46,296
Where would we watch it?

56
00:02:46,340 --> 00:02:48,269
We can hang a blanket
up in my parents' barn.

57
00:02:48,295 --> 00:02:51,603
Only glitch is, we need a projector.

58
00:02:53,561 --> 00:02:56,216
You two work at the
movie theater, right?

59
00:02:56,242 --> 00:02:57,655
Can you help a brother out?

60
00:02:57,699 --> 00:03:01,920
The Babylonium does have a
smaller projector, but...

61
00:03:01,964 --> 00:03:03,487
We wanna come, too.

62
00:03:03,531 --> 00:03:04,445
Fine.

63
00:03:04,488 --> 00:03:06,416
Just don't expect it to be like

64
00:03:06,442 --> 00:03:09,312
one of those wrestling
movies you like to watch.

65
00:03:10,973 --> 00:03:13,593
So, Robert Frost.

66
00:03:14,237 --> 00:03:15,390
You in?

67
00:03:15,763 --> 00:03:17,591
- Yeah, we're in.
- Right-o.

68
00:03:17,617 --> 00:03:19,684
From all accounts you
won't be disappointed.

69
00:03:19,710 --> 00:03:22,931
My pal told me that there's
nothing they don't show.

70
00:03:28,315 --> 00:03:31,421
Jeepers, Mr. Fieldstone,
it's like a funeral in here.

71
00:03:31,585 --> 00:03:32,960
Did something happen?

72
00:03:32,986 --> 00:03:36,390
Yes. I got a letter from
that crackpot Werthers.

73
00:03:37,216 --> 00:03:39,036
Apparently wants to
follow up his bonfire

74
00:03:39,062 --> 00:03:41,161
with some cockamamie comic book code

75
00:03:41,187 --> 00:03:42,778
he wants to ram down our throats.

76
00:03:42,804 --> 00:03:45,200
- A code to do what?
- To censor our content,

77
00:03:45,226 --> 00:03:46,989
like the Hays Code censors movies.

78
00:03:47,015 --> 00:03:49,802
Now, I didn't spend two years
fighting Nazis in France

79
00:03:49,828 --> 00:03:51,481
to kowtow to fascists at home.

80
00:03:51,507 --> 00:03:53,192
He and his "board of experts"

81
00:03:53,218 --> 00:03:55,216
want to have a sit-down
meeting with you?

82
00:03:55,242 --> 00:03:57,911
Yeah, and look who that geezer's
got on his side of the table.

83
00:03:57,937 --> 00:04:00,546
Mayor Blossom, that
chrome-dome principal,

84
00:04:00,664 --> 00:04:03,888
some fuddy-duddy nun from
The Sisters of Quiet Mercy.

85
00:04:03,914 --> 00:04:06,497
Well, golly, Mr. Fieldstone,
you have to do it.

86
00:04:06,523 --> 00:04:08,575
It might be the best way
to defend Pep Comics

87
00:04:08,601 --> 00:04:09,911
before this code becomes official.

88
00:04:09,937 --> 00:04:12,222
Okay, fine, fine. I'll,
I'll try and get my hands

89
00:04:12,248 --> 00:04:14,207
on a draft of Werthers'
"recommendations"

90
00:04:14,233 --> 00:04:15,974
before we go into the lion's den.

91
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:16,956
"We"?

92
00:04:16,982 --> 00:04:18,918
You have tangled with Werthers before

93
00:04:18,944 --> 00:04:20,625
and lived to tell the tale.

94
00:04:20,825 --> 00:04:21,913
So far.

95
00:04:22,293 --> 00:04:23,671
What do you say?

96
00:04:24,130 --> 00:04:25,740
Will you step up?

97
00:04:25,917 --> 00:04:27,158
You betcha.

98
00:04:27,184 --> 00:04:29,140
Let's beat 'em at their own game.

99
00:04:30,792 --> 00:04:32,257
You know, babe,

100
00:04:32,402 --> 00:04:35,921
what if we did a pin-up
shoot of our own.

101
00:04:37,277 --> 00:04:39,122
Color me curious.

102
00:04:39,148 --> 00:04:40,356
I've got a camera.

103
00:04:40,382 --> 00:04:42,239
And it has a timer,

104
00:04:42,265 --> 00:04:44,466
so we could both be in the pictures.

105
00:04:44,492 --> 00:04:48,462
In that case, afterwards, we
could pick our favorite photo,

106
00:04:48,496 --> 00:04:52,647
and then I could turn it into the
most fantabulous oil painting

107
00:04:52,673 --> 00:04:55,429
in the tradition of our
favorite pulp novel covers.

108
00:04:56,165 --> 00:04:58,372
I know exactly

109
00:04:58,398 --> 00:05:00,239
where our clandestine photoshoot can be.

110
00:05:00,265 --> 00:05:02,432
Tell me. Where?

111
00:05:02,554 --> 00:05:03,903
Thornhill's chapel.

112
00:05:04,047 --> 00:05:06,710
No one in my unholy family ever uses it.

113
00:05:16,533 --> 00:05:19,101
Well, if it isn't the Bobbsey Twins,

114
00:05:19,144 --> 00:05:20,909
up to their old tricks again.

115
00:05:20,935 --> 00:05:22,878
How many times do I
have to tell you boys

116
00:05:22,904 --> 00:05:25,753
that you're free to watch
your wrestling movies

117
00:05:25,779 --> 00:05:27,268
in our auditorium.

118
00:05:27,294 --> 00:05:30,504
After hours, of course, and
provided you clean up.

119
00:05:30,547 --> 00:05:34,021
Oh, it's, it's not that, Veronica....

120
00:05:34,769 --> 00:05:35,990
Julian...

121
00:05:36,336 --> 00:05:39,154
got his hands on a stag film,

122
00:05:39,532 --> 00:05:41,771
and he needs a projector to screen it.

123
00:05:42,037 --> 00:05:43,529
You don't say.

124
00:05:43,734 --> 00:05:46,049
I've heard about these "smokers" before.

125
00:05:46,075 --> 00:05:48,776
So-called because they're
typically screened by men

126
00:05:48,802 --> 00:05:51,167
in the back rooms of their private clubs

127
00:05:51,193 --> 00:05:54,807
while smoking cigars and
enjoying hot toddies.

128
00:05:54,833 --> 00:05:56,893
But I've never actually seen one.

129
00:05:56,919 --> 00:06:00,370
- Though I've always been curious.
- Exactly. Same as us.

130
00:06:00,396 --> 00:06:03,275
Yeah, that's why we're
helping the creep.

131
00:06:03,319 --> 00:06:05,013
Why don't I make you a deal?

132
00:06:05,452 --> 00:06:06,924
You tell Julian

133
00:06:06,950 --> 00:06:08,370
that he can do a proper screening

134
00:06:08,396 --> 00:06:10,094
here at the Babylonium tonight,

135
00:06:10,262 --> 00:06:13,118
and invite all his horndog friends.

136
00:06:13,155 --> 00:06:14,635
But I get to come, too.

137
00:06:14,733 --> 00:06:16,279
And invite a gal-pal.

138
00:06:57,572 --> 00:07:00,548
_

139
00:07:02,605 --> 00:07:04,389
I thought you'd given me the brush-off.

140
00:07:04,415 --> 00:07:07,601
I know. I'm sorry. I had to wait for
my mom to take her sleeping pills.

141
00:07:08,471 --> 00:07:09,921
I'm just glad you made it.

142
00:07:09,947 --> 00:07:11,850
I didn't want to be the only girl here,

143
00:07:11,876 --> 00:07:13,476
and I knew you'd wanna take a gander.

144
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:14,695
Oh, yes.

145
00:07:14,738 --> 00:07:16,392
Ever since reading about stag films

146
00:07:16,436 --> 00:07:18,233
in Dr. Kingsley's book.

147
00:07:18,283 --> 00:07:19,898
The boys are already in the theater,

148
00:07:19,924 --> 00:07:22,275
panting like a pack of rabid wolves.

149
00:07:22,754 --> 00:07:24,627
It's showtime, fellas.

150
00:07:24,748 --> 00:07:26,228
So settle down,

151
00:07:26,271 --> 00:07:30,155
and welcome to the
Riverdale premiere of...

152
00:07:30,181 --> 00:07:32,850
- The Wedding Night.
- Yeah! - Yes.

153
00:07:32,876 --> 00:07:34,944
In which a young, blushing bride

154
00:07:34,970 --> 00:07:38,533
is initiated into the
mysteries of matrimony.

155
00:07:39,105 --> 00:07:40,701
Now, behave yourselves, fellas.

156
00:07:40,727 --> 00:07:44,027
Keep the roughhousing and
catcalling to a minimum.

157
00:07:44,053 --> 00:07:46,533
And with that, enjoy the show.

158
00:08:11,012 --> 00:08:12,371
Oh, my gosh.

159
00:08:13,070 --> 00:08:14,598
Betty, what's wrong?

160
00:08:15,051 --> 00:08:17,322
Stop! Stop the movie! Stop!

161
00:08:17,366 --> 00:08:18,947
That woman is my sister.

162
00:08:18,973 --> 00:08:20,754
- Your sister?
- Polly?

163
00:08:23,415 --> 00:08:26,309
Cut the reel and, hit the lights, Clay.

164
00:08:30,518 --> 00:08:33,666
www.subtitulamos.tv

165
00:08:35,931 --> 00:08:39,182
Well, safe to say that was
a twist no one saw coming.

166
00:08:40,856 --> 00:08:43,291
When was the last time
you saw your sister?

167
00:08:43,442 --> 00:08:47,577
A couple of years, but, Vee,
this doesn't make any sense.

168
00:08:47,603 --> 00:08:50,166
Polly is a dancer on Broadway.

169
00:08:50,192 --> 00:08:52,072
Maybe you should call Polly.

170
00:08:52,222 --> 00:08:54,572
See if you can get some answers.

171
00:08:56,045 --> 00:08:57,791
- Hello.
- Polly.

172
00:08:58,674 --> 00:09:02,588
It's Betty, I found your
number in Mom's address book.

173
00:09:02,842 --> 00:09:05,010
I'm sorry to be calling
you so late, but...

174
00:09:05,474 --> 00:09:06,955
we need to talk.

175
00:09:25,152 --> 00:09:26,546
He didn't pass it to you, he...

176
00:09:26,572 --> 00:09:28,604
So last night was a bust.

177
00:09:28,670 --> 00:09:30,150
Tell you what, though,

178
00:09:30,176 --> 00:09:32,783
I got Keller and Walker
to lend me a projector,

179
00:09:32,809 --> 00:09:34,877
and I watched another movie I got

180
00:09:34,903 --> 00:09:38,057
from my buddy at Stonewall Prep
after Cooper shut us down.

181
00:09:38,119 --> 00:09:39,635
And, guys,

182
00:09:40,144 --> 00:09:42,697
it's like the tenth Wonder of the World.

183
00:09:43,450 --> 00:09:44,799
And guess what?

184
00:09:44,826 --> 00:09:46,166
For two bucks,

185
00:09:46,192 --> 00:09:48,456
I'll rent you the
projector and the movie,

186
00:09:48,482 --> 00:09:51,112
which you can watch in the
privacy of your own home,

187
00:09:51,155 --> 00:09:53,174
this time, with no interruptions.

188
00:09:53,849 --> 00:09:55,275
What do you say, boys?

189
00:09:56,225 --> 00:09:59,518
Okay, so you and Polly actually spoke?

190
00:09:59,647 --> 00:10:01,455
Yes, but it was quick.

191
00:10:01,481 --> 00:10:02,893
She's on her way to Riverdale, now.

192
00:10:02,919 --> 00:10:05,963
We're gonna meet at Pop's so she can
explain everything to me in person.

193
00:10:05,989 --> 00:10:08,025
But she says she doesn't
do those films anymore.

194
00:10:08,051 --> 00:10:09,539
Right. She's on Broadway.

195
00:10:09,565 --> 00:10:11,869
No, actually, that's her cover story.

196
00:10:12,090 --> 00:10:15,702
What she told me last
night is she does...

197
00:10:15,793 --> 00:10:16,979
burlesque.

198
00:10:17,302 --> 00:10:18,607
Really?

199
00:10:19,674 --> 00:10:21,525
Do your parents know that?

200
00:10:22,192 --> 00:10:24,814
Apparently. I didn't
ask them this morning.

201
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,190
They don't even know that
I reached out to Polly.

202
00:10:27,216 --> 00:10:31,385
Well, for what it's worth,
burlesque is a legit art form.

203
00:10:31,598 --> 00:10:34,976
In fact, some burlesque
performers are huge stars.

204
00:10:35,002 --> 00:10:36,814
Gypsy Rose Lee, to name one.

205
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,564
Josephine Baker, to name another.

206
00:10:38,590 --> 00:10:42,028
Well, she says her stage
name is Polly Amorous.

207
00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:44,783
Cut the gas.

208
00:10:44,896 --> 00:10:46,724
Polly Amorous?

209
00:10:46,814 --> 00:10:49,033
Betty, she's the berries.
I'm gonna flip.

210
00:10:49,059 --> 00:10:50,174
What?

211
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,142
- Have you seen her perform?
- No, I wish.

212
00:10:53,168 --> 00:10:55,585
But I recognize that
name from the trades.

213
00:10:55,611 --> 00:10:58,916
I always thought she sounded
so glamorous and flossy.

214
00:10:58,942 --> 00:11:01,096
I mean, I'd flat-out
die and go to heaven

215
00:11:01,122 --> 00:11:02,897
to have her perform at the Babylonium.

216
00:11:02,923 --> 00:11:04,576
She kind of already did.

217
00:11:04,620 --> 00:11:06,611
Her burlesque show, you tickler.

218
00:11:06,637 --> 00:11:08,769
Say, come to think of it,

219
00:11:08,875 --> 00:11:13,252
maybe this is why your mom
is so terrified of S-E-X.

220
00:11:13,278 --> 00:11:15,672
Maybe she's threatened by Polly.

221
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,307
Her independence, her sexuality,

222
00:11:18,333 --> 00:11:20,447
her devil-may-care ways.

223
00:11:24,639 --> 00:11:27,772
Well, hi-de-ho, I must
say it's official.

224
00:11:27,798 --> 00:11:28,973
You're a genius.

225
00:11:28,999 --> 00:11:30,645
Well, photography is no big whoop

226
00:11:30,671 --> 00:11:33,908
when you have subjects as
stunning as, well, us.

227
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,486
By the way, I was reading the back pages

228
00:11:36,512 --> 00:11:38,330
of Femme-and-In magazine,

229
00:11:38,356 --> 00:11:40,775
and they publish amateur photos,

230
00:11:40,801 --> 00:11:43,041
if that's something that
you're interested in.

231
00:11:43,263 --> 00:11:45,893
Perhaps after we graduate high school.

232
00:11:46,416 --> 00:11:47,949
In the meantime,

233
00:11:47,975 --> 00:11:50,535
how do you feel about me painting
a version of this for us?

234
00:11:50,579 --> 00:11:53,182
That's my favorite one, too.

235
00:11:53,481 --> 00:11:56,005
I can't wait to see how you pulpify us.

236
00:11:56,033 --> 00:11:58,252
I know how you feel about
comic books, Veronica,

237
00:11:58,289 --> 00:12:01,049
but I also know that you're
the top negotiator in town.

238
00:12:01,075 --> 00:12:04,818
And though I'm not necessarily
a fanatic of comic books,

239
00:12:04,894 --> 00:12:08,115
I don't think they should
be burned or banned.

240
00:12:08,783 --> 00:12:09,933
But this code...

241
00:12:09,966 --> 00:12:13,135
Yeah, my boss, Mr. Fieldstone got
us a copy ahead of the meeting.

242
00:12:13,161 --> 00:12:17,362
What that crackpot Werthers
is proposing is insane.

243
00:12:17,388 --> 00:12:20,827
I mean, it is straight out of 1984.

244
00:12:20,870 --> 00:12:23,689
Big Brother is watching, and he's
trying to take your comic books.

245
00:12:23,715 --> 00:12:26,936
These rules are more
outrageous than the Hays Code.

246
00:12:26,962 --> 00:12:28,467
How can you possibly spin any yarn

247
00:12:28,493 --> 00:12:30,619
with all these kinds of
blanket restrictions?

248
00:12:30,645 --> 00:12:32,321
Heck, he's even trying to ban the words

249
00:12:32,347 --> 00:12:34,322
"horror" and "terror" from our covers.

250
00:12:34,348 --> 00:12:37,119
And some of these rules
are incredibly vague.

251
00:12:37,149 --> 00:12:39,282
Werthers wants to outlaw stories with

252
00:12:39,308 --> 00:12:42,223
"horror, bloodshed, depravity, lust,"

253
00:12:42,249 --> 00:12:44,377
but he doesn't define
what those terms mean.

254
00:12:44,403 --> 00:12:47,897
I think he's trying to
specifically target Pep Comics.

255
00:12:47,941 --> 00:12:49,744
And if he gets his way, the good doctor

256
00:12:49,770 --> 00:12:51,689
is going to run us out of business.

257
00:12:51,715 --> 00:12:53,219
So you came to me.

258
00:12:53,584 --> 00:12:54,799
Smart.

259
00:12:55,259 --> 00:12:56,705
Well, first,

260
00:12:57,651 --> 00:12:59,260
don't get the gringles.

261
00:12:59,665 --> 00:13:00,963
If they smell fear,

262
00:13:00,989 --> 00:13:02,518
they will pounce on you.

263
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:06,697
Technically, this isn't a code.

264
00:13:06,932 --> 00:13:08,184
It's a proposal.

265
00:13:08,210 --> 00:13:09,822
Their first offer.

266
00:13:09,961 --> 00:13:13,908
So you and Mr. Fieldstone
should make a counterproposal.

267
00:13:13,967 --> 00:13:16,885
Go through this draft point by point.

268
00:13:16,911 --> 00:13:18,955
Be crystal clear about what you want.

269
00:13:18,981 --> 00:13:20,018
Yeah.

270
00:13:20,044 --> 00:13:21,481
Yeah, that's good.

271
00:13:21,570 --> 00:13:23,964
You're in the right
on this one, Jughead.

272
00:13:24,022 --> 00:13:25,546
Don't doubt yourself.

273
00:13:29,635 --> 00:13:31,744
It's really nice to
see you again, Polly.

274
00:13:31,770 --> 00:13:34,541
- I missed you.
- I missed you, too, Betty.

275
00:13:34,596 --> 00:13:36,502
I'm sorry that we're reconnecting

276
00:13:36,528 --> 00:13:38,752
under these circumstances.

277
00:13:38,916 --> 00:13:42,393
I figured you'd want this back.

278
00:13:42,419 --> 00:13:44,775
Yes, thank you.

279
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:46,564
Can I ask,

280
00:13:47,153 --> 00:13:49,242
why did you do it, Polly?

281
00:13:50,246 --> 00:13:53,256
I got hoodwinked into
filming The Wedding Night

282
00:13:53,282 --> 00:13:55,110
when I first got to New York.

283
00:13:55,256 --> 00:13:57,432
I was young and naive,

284
00:13:57,565 --> 00:14:00,822
and I fell in love with a
fink who steered me wrong.

285
00:14:00,922 --> 00:14:04,143
I spent a year trying to track
down every copy I could find.

286
00:14:04,169 --> 00:14:05,752
Thought I got 'em all.

287
00:14:05,994 --> 00:14:08,557
Well, how did you... how did
you get into burlesque?

288
00:14:08,583 --> 00:14:09,540
It's funny.

289
00:14:09,566 --> 00:14:11,520
I auditioned for the Rockettes.

290
00:14:11,546 --> 00:14:13,080
But I wasn't tall enough.

291
00:14:13,106 --> 00:14:17,526
And then I saw Gypsy Rose Lee perform

292
00:14:17,552 --> 00:14:19,830
at the Ziegfeld Follies, and I thought,

293
00:14:19,856 --> 00:14:21,466
that is what I wanna do.

294
00:14:21,589 --> 00:14:24,418
And whatever you might
think about burlesque,

295
00:14:24,469 --> 00:14:26,221
I'm proud of my career.

296
00:14:26,247 --> 00:14:28,244
It's on my terms. I make good money.

297
00:14:28,270 --> 00:14:31,260
People respect me, and I respect myself.

298
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,002
So you don't have to worry.

299
00:14:33,046 --> 00:14:35,072
I wanted to tell you that face to face.

300
00:14:35,197 --> 00:14:38,150
I'm so happy for you, Polly, really.

301
00:14:38,740 --> 00:14:39,939
And...

302
00:14:40,408 --> 00:14:42,127
to be perfectly honest,

303
00:14:42,153 --> 00:14:47,158
I did a little burlesque show of my own

304
00:14:47,184 --> 00:14:49,708
just for one person, Archie.

305
00:14:49,734 --> 00:14:51,455
Archie from next door?

306
00:14:51,481 --> 00:14:53,072
In our windows.

307
00:14:53,098 --> 00:14:55,236
Well, you always were sweet on him.

308
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,975
How much did you say Mom
and Dad know about...

309
00:15:01,001 --> 00:15:02,283
My life?

310
00:15:02,391 --> 00:15:05,569
Well, they don't know
about The Wedding Night.

311
00:15:05,595 --> 00:15:06,721
Thank God.

312
00:15:06,747 --> 00:15:09,271
But they do know about Polly Amorous.

313
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,986
I invited them to my
show a couple years ago.

314
00:15:12,012 --> 00:15:14,705
They walked out in the first five
minutes without saying a word.

315
00:15:14,731 --> 00:15:15,893
Not a peep.

316
00:15:15,919 --> 00:15:17,650
And then I started hearing
that Mom was telling people

317
00:15:17,676 --> 00:15:20,408
I was doing Guys and
Dolls, and I thought,

318
00:15:20,645 --> 00:15:22,604
"That is it for me."

319
00:15:22,721 --> 00:15:24,314
In their eyes, at least.

320
00:15:24,358 --> 00:15:27,049
But it's fine. I'm past that. Truly.

321
00:15:27,075 --> 00:15:29,145
I came here for you, Betty,

322
00:15:29,189 --> 00:15:31,611
and I booked a room at
the Cozy Time Motel

323
00:15:31,637 --> 00:15:34,422
because I figured Mom and Dad
have no interest in seeing me.

324
00:15:34,448 --> 00:15:36,953
And anyways, I don't wanna
step foot in that house...

325
00:15:37,359 --> 00:15:38,537
ever again.

326
00:15:38,563 --> 00:15:40,087
I understand.

327
00:15:40,955 --> 00:15:42,348
Believe me.

328
00:15:42,374 --> 00:15:44,869
But I thought we could do
something fun tonight.

329
00:15:45,189 --> 00:15:48,385
Go shopping, to the movies.
My treat, of course.

330
00:15:48,411 --> 00:15:51,185
Actually, if you're not
rushing back to the city,

331
00:15:51,211 --> 00:15:54,979
I was wondering if you might be
willing to meet a friend of mine.

332
00:15:55,005 --> 00:15:57,212
She's a big fan of yours,

333
00:15:57,238 --> 00:15:59,885
of... of Polly Amorous.

334
00:16:00,213 --> 00:16:02,135
A fan in Riverdale?

335
00:16:02,178 --> 00:16:03,486
Absolutely.

336
00:16:03,512 --> 00:16:05,283
I never say no to a fan.

337
00:16:15,306 --> 00:16:17,439
Be still my beating heart.

338
00:16:17,473 --> 00:16:21,783
The Polly Amorous sitting
in my humble living room.

339
00:16:21,854 --> 00:16:23,299
Now that we're gal pals,

340
00:16:23,325 --> 00:16:26,502
you must tell me everything
about everything.

341
00:16:26,673 --> 00:16:30,799
How's Gay Paree and Old Madrid
and every city in between.

342
00:16:30,825 --> 00:16:32,775
I will let you know
just after I get back

343
00:16:32,801 --> 00:16:36,630
from my all-expenses-paid
first-class European tour.

344
00:16:36,656 --> 00:16:38,479
Polly, you're going to Europe?

345
00:16:38,505 --> 00:16:40,681
Your sister is living the dream.

346
00:16:40,707 --> 00:16:44,197
A new city and a different
paramour every night I bet.

347
00:16:44,865 --> 00:16:47,999
Well, not exactly.

348
00:16:49,146 --> 00:16:50,471
I...

349
00:16:51,417 --> 00:16:52,963
I'm engaged.

350
00:16:54,205 --> 00:16:57,049
You're engaged? To... to who?

351
00:16:57,338 --> 00:16:59,127
His name is Langley Huggles.

352
00:16:59,153 --> 00:17:01,713
He's a stockbroker,
completely devoted to me.

353
00:17:01,739 --> 00:17:03,096
Keeps me grounded.

354
00:17:03,122 --> 00:17:05,400
And housed in a penthouse
on the Upper West Side.

355
00:17:05,426 --> 00:17:06,819
Ooh, la, la.

356
00:17:07,897 --> 00:17:12,002
Polly, you were going to
invite me to the wedding,

357
00:17:12,028 --> 00:17:17,072
I hope, whatever tension
there is with Mom and Dad.

358
00:17:17,098 --> 00:17:18,744
Sure, I was.

359
00:17:19,333 --> 00:17:20,627
Actually,

360
00:17:20,653 --> 00:17:24,986
I was gonna ask you if you
would be my maid of honor.

361
00:17:28,330 --> 00:17:32,338
Well, I wouldn't be Veronica
Lodge if I didn't ask.

362
00:17:32,364 --> 00:17:35,369
What do you think about
doing a one-night-only show

363
00:17:35,395 --> 00:17:37,549
at my theater, The Babylonium?

364
00:17:37,843 --> 00:17:40,549
I know Betty would love to
see you perform, as would I.

365
00:17:40,575 --> 00:17:42,322
It's true, and maybe
Mom would even come,

366
00:17:42,348 --> 00:17:43,872
since it's right here in town.

367
00:17:43,898 --> 00:17:46,031
I wouldn't hold your
breath on that, Betty.

368
00:17:46,057 --> 00:17:47,791
But as a matter of fact,

369
00:17:47,817 --> 00:17:50,713
I am working on a new routine.

370
00:17:51,100 --> 00:17:52,841
Well, then it's kismet.

371
00:17:52,977 --> 00:17:56,127
And we'll keep it on the hush-hush.
Girls only.

372
00:18:03,924 --> 00:18:06,643
This is gonna be the best two
dollars we've ever spent.

373
00:18:06,669 --> 00:18:10,408
I'll say. Tonight we become men.

374
00:18:16,195 --> 00:18:17,377
You ready?

375
00:18:17,463 --> 00:18:18,603
Yeah.

376
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,187
What...

377
00:18:39,683 --> 00:18:41,070
What is this?

378
00:18:41,424 --> 00:18:44,166
Don't know. Maybe they're gonna
fight over a girl or something.

379
00:18:44,210 --> 00:18:45,812
- Right. Yeah.
- Yeah.

380
00:18:45,838 --> 00:18:46,875
Yeah.

381
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,851
Dang nabbit!

382
00:18:56,671 --> 00:18:58,606
That joker Julian

383
00:18:58,632 --> 00:19:01,239
must have switched films on us as a gag.

384
00:19:01,265 --> 00:19:03,820
Yeah, didn't Julian say something about

385
00:19:03,846 --> 00:19:06,544
Kevin and Clay watching
wrestling videos?

386
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,713
I don't know. But we should probably
turn this off, right? I mean...

387
00:19:09,739 --> 00:19:13,031
Yeah. Yeah, we probably should.

388
00:19:26,924 --> 00:19:30,430
Maybe we just give it a minute just to
see if a girl comes in or something.

389
00:19:30,473 --> 00:19:32,081
Yeah, that's a good idea.

390
00:19:32,673 --> 00:19:33,979
Let's do that.

391
00:19:54,770 --> 00:19:57,929
Hey, that was... wacko, right?

392
00:20:00,982 --> 00:20:05,589
Do you think the guys
in that movie were...

393
00:20:06,509 --> 00:20:07,401
you know...

394
00:20:07,427 --> 00:20:11,714
Well... some guys are that way.

395
00:20:12,864 --> 00:20:14,257
Yeah, so...

396
00:20:15,362 --> 00:20:16,867
Are Kevin and Clay?

397
00:20:16,911 --> 00:20:18,159
I think...

398
00:20:20,045 --> 00:20:21,370
yeah.

399
00:20:21,713 --> 00:20:22,801
Maybe.

400
00:20:22,891 --> 00:20:25,104
And, you know, there's an in-between.

401
00:20:27,673 --> 00:20:29,501
What do you mean, an in-between?

402
00:20:29,527 --> 00:20:33,292
Like a little wiggle room to... explore.

403
00:20:35,438 --> 00:20:38,221
We've been talking about it
in Mrs. Grundy's workshop.

404
00:20:38,804 --> 00:20:41,729
These Beat poets would...

405
00:20:43,764 --> 00:20:45,418
experiment with each other.

406
00:20:45,461 --> 00:20:46,996
Even though they were men's men,

407
00:20:47,022 --> 00:20:49,590
with girlfriends, wives, families.

408
00:20:50,226 --> 00:20:51,503
They would...

409
00:20:52,086 --> 00:20:55,495
with... other guys?

410
00:20:56,705 --> 00:20:57,901
Do stuff.

411
00:20:59,706 --> 00:21:02,913
Yeah, with their buddies.
Just to see, just to...

412
00:21:03,787 --> 00:21:05,659
try it on for size.

413
00:21:09,614 --> 00:21:11,138
I gotta take a cold shower.

414
00:21:11,164 --> 00:21:13,079
Yeah, me too. Well, I'll go after you.

415
00:21:13,190 --> 00:21:14,714
And tomorrow you can bet your ass

416
00:21:14,740 --> 00:21:17,620
that Julian Blossom is gonna
give us our two dollars back.

417
00:21:17,646 --> 00:21:18,901
Yeah.

418
00:21:21,432 --> 00:21:22,917
Hey, Blossom!

419
00:21:23,721 --> 00:21:26,241
What's the big idea giving
us a wrestling movie?

420
00:21:26,267 --> 00:21:27,440
Aw, aren't you two in
love with each other?

421
00:21:27,466 --> 00:21:29,034
I thought that flick
might break the ice,

422
00:21:29,060 --> 00:21:31,008
get the ball, or balls, rolling.

423
00:21:31,034 --> 00:21:32,932
Give us our damn money
back or I'll pound you.

424
00:21:32,958 --> 00:21:34,046
All right!

425
00:21:34,072 --> 00:21:35,987
Get your filthy meat hooks off of me.

426
00:21:36,013 --> 00:21:38,814
There you go, ladies.
There's your two clams.

427
00:21:38,901 --> 00:21:40,686
If anything I should be paying you.

428
00:21:40,712 --> 00:21:42,393
Your faces are priceless.

429
00:21:42,714 --> 00:21:44,477
What about the damn stag film?

430
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:48,042
The one with Cooper's sister.
Betty took it, numbskull.

431
00:21:48,068 --> 00:21:49,984
But I do have another smoky.

432
00:21:50,010 --> 00:21:52,702
This one about a guy with two girls.

433
00:21:52,746 --> 00:21:54,440
If you're interested.

434
00:21:55,362 --> 00:21:58,182
This time I'll lend it to you gratis.

435
00:21:58,474 --> 00:21:59,682
What does that mean?

436
00:21:59,708 --> 00:22:00,753
It's free.

437
00:22:01,483 --> 00:22:03,010
'Cause I'm that kind of guy.

438
00:22:11,526 --> 00:22:13,462
Hey, all you hep kittens!

439
00:22:13,506 --> 00:22:15,792
May we have your attention, please?

440
00:22:16,030 --> 00:22:18,375
Clear your dance cards, ladies,

441
00:22:18,401 --> 00:22:20,977
because the Babylonium
is proud to present

442
00:22:21,003 --> 00:22:24,212
a very special,
one-night-only performance

443
00:22:24,255 --> 00:22:28,198
by international burlesque
star and chanteuse,

444
00:22:28,224 --> 00:22:31,280
the sensational Polly Amorous.

445
00:22:31,392 --> 00:22:32,495
Who?

446
00:22:32,521 --> 00:22:34,026
My sister Polly.

447
00:22:34,052 --> 00:22:36,837
Wait. Your sister's a burlesque star.

448
00:22:36,863 --> 00:22:39,078
Things are starting to
make a hellish sense now.

449
00:22:39,104 --> 00:22:42,885
In any case, this is going
to be a ladies night only.

450
00:22:42,911 --> 00:22:44,542
No boys allowed.

451
00:22:44,568 --> 00:22:47,049
Well, sounds like my kinda night.

452
00:22:47,075 --> 00:22:49,589
So, who's in?

453
00:22:57,839 --> 00:22:59,425
"Scenes dealing with

454
00:22:59,451 --> 00:23:01,995
or instruments associated
with walking dead,

455
00:23:02,021 --> 00:23:04,456
torture, vampires and vampirism,

456
00:23:04,482 --> 00:23:05,698
ghouls, cannibalism,

457
00:23:05,724 --> 00:23:07,639
and werewolfism are prohibited."

458
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,096
Wooden stakes are used to kill vampires.

459
00:23:10,171 --> 00:23:14,003
But if Super Duck used wooden
stakes to pitch a tent,

460
00:23:14,029 --> 00:23:15,979
would that be okay or
is that banned, too?

461
00:23:16,005 --> 00:23:18,917
Mr. Jones, please.
Clearly, context matters.

462
00:23:18,943 --> 00:23:21,293
And shouldn't you be in class?

463
00:23:21,338 --> 00:23:22,883
It's my lunch period, sir.

464
00:23:22,909 --> 00:23:26,187
"Suggestive and salacious illustration

465
00:23:26,230 --> 00:23:29,103
or suggestive posture is unacceptable"?

466
00:23:29,146 --> 00:23:33,534
Could you be a little more specific
about which postures you mean?

467
00:23:34,175 --> 00:23:38,086
Sister, perhaps you and the doctor could

468
00:23:38,112 --> 00:23:40,784
demonstrate for us numbskulls.

469
00:23:40,810 --> 00:23:41,985
Buffoons.

470
00:23:42,011 --> 00:23:43,510
What about this item?

471
00:23:43,536 --> 00:23:46,147
"All scenes of horror,
excessive bloodshed,

472
00:23:46,173 --> 00:23:49,237
gory or gruesome crimes,
depravity, lust, sadism

473
00:23:49,263 --> 00:23:51,621
and masochism shall not be permitted"?

474
00:23:51,647 --> 00:23:54,885
This code in its current state
violates the First Amendment.

475
00:23:54,911 --> 00:23:56,979
Oh, surely you're not suggesting

476
00:23:57,005 --> 00:24:00,003
that tripe like this is
protected by free speech.

477
00:24:00,047 --> 00:24:02,151
Freedom of speech is
protection of speech

478
00:24:02,177 --> 00:24:04,048
that you don't agree with, Dr. Werthers.

479
00:24:04,074 --> 00:24:06,721
What you are advocating
for is censorship.

480
00:24:06,747 --> 00:24:09,143
You even wanna ban the word "mystery"

481
00:24:09,186 --> 00:24:10,628
from appearing on our covers.

482
00:24:10,654 --> 00:24:12,381
Mr. Fieldstone, as an educator,

483
00:24:12,407 --> 00:24:14,581
I believe this code to
be quite even-handed.

484
00:24:14,607 --> 00:24:17,878
Well, I believe it to be
intentionally vague and confusing

485
00:24:17,904 --> 00:24:20,385
so that you can apply it to
anything you want to censor.

486
00:24:20,411 --> 00:24:23,362
And who exactly defines what "lurid",

487
00:24:23,388 --> 00:24:25,564
"unsavory" or "perverted" is?

488
00:24:25,590 --> 00:24:27,885
- Is that you, Dr. Werthers?
- Are we done here?

489
00:24:27,911 --> 00:24:29,573
No, we are not done here.

490
00:24:29,599 --> 00:24:31,731
We have a counterproposal.

491
00:24:31,757 --> 00:24:33,831
In the form of a rating system.

492
00:24:34,010 --> 00:24:35,557
A rating system?

493
00:24:35,583 --> 00:24:37,628
Yes, printed clearly on our covers.

494
00:24:37,707 --> 00:24:40,570
A comic might be rated "K" for "Kid"

495
00:24:40,596 --> 00:24:43,190
or "T" for "Teen" or "A" for "Adult."

496
00:24:43,216 --> 00:24:45,022
Don't be so naive.

497
00:24:45,048 --> 00:24:47,487
Stamping an "A" for
"Adult" on a comic book

498
00:24:47,513 --> 00:24:50,604
would only make it more
desirable for young readers.

499
00:24:50,630 --> 00:24:53,487
Riverdale's children and
teenagers must be protected.

500
00:24:53,513 --> 00:24:56,135
- At all costs.
- Yeah, you, you keep saying this,

501
00:24:56,161 --> 00:24:57,659
but "protected" from what?

502
00:24:57,685 --> 00:24:59,112
From the corrupting filth

503
00:24:59,138 --> 00:25:01,587
that you and your colleagues
peddle, Mr. Jones.

504
00:25:01,630 --> 00:25:04,159
Tales of murder, lust, sex and violence

505
00:25:04,185 --> 00:25:07,144
that would in turn prompt
the same in their behavior.

506
00:25:07,170 --> 00:25:09,781
Do you want to know what else
has all of those themes?

507
00:25:09,807 --> 00:25:12,143
The Bible, the plays of Shakespeare,

508
00:25:12,169 --> 00:25:15,042
- Bullfinch's Mythology...
- Apples and oranges.

509
00:25:15,068 --> 00:25:16,643
Wrongdoers are punished in the Bible.

510
00:25:16,669 --> 00:25:19,063
Show me one Pep Comic book

511
00:25:19,175 --> 00:25:22,456
- that glamorizes violence.
- I don't read such depravity.

512
00:25:22,482 --> 00:25:24,268
No, you just burn it.

513
00:25:24,294 --> 00:25:26,495
Gentlemen, Sister,

514
00:25:26,521 --> 00:25:29,448
I think it's time we wrapped this up.
Don't you concur?

515
00:25:29,474 --> 00:25:31,729
Wrap it up? We haven't even
begun to reach compromise.

516
00:25:31,755 --> 00:25:34,279
This meeting was never a negotiation.

517
00:25:34,305 --> 00:25:36,219
It was offered to you as a courtesy.

518
00:25:36,245 --> 00:25:38,592
All of your competitors
have already agreed

519
00:25:38,618 --> 00:25:41,339
to comply with our Comic Book Code.

520
00:25:41,365 --> 00:25:43,971
You are, at the moment,
the only holdouts.

521
00:25:44,323 --> 00:25:47,503
If you do not abide by our strictures,

522
00:25:47,529 --> 00:25:49,339
then you will not be able to

523
00:25:49,365 --> 00:25:52,698
print the Comic Book Code Seal
of Approval on your books.

524
00:25:52,724 --> 00:25:54,135
No! No.

525
00:25:54,161 --> 00:25:55,771
Not even Super Duck,

526
00:25:55,797 --> 00:25:58,721
which means that no newsstand in America

527
00:25:58,747 --> 00:26:02,253
will sell or even carry
your comic books.

528
00:26:02,322 --> 00:26:05,471
They will be relegated
to the trash heap,

529
00:26:06,824 --> 00:26:08,417
where they belong.

530
00:26:13,774 --> 00:26:15,250
I know it's been a busy week,

531
00:26:15,276 --> 00:26:17,539
but did you all have a
chance to read Howl?

532
00:26:17,942 --> 00:26:20,844
Good. Let's open it up for discussion.

533
00:26:20,977 --> 00:26:22,413
What did you all think?

534
00:26:22,439 --> 00:26:24,672
Dynamic and hallucinogenic.

535
00:26:24,698 --> 00:26:27,039
A subterranean toppling of idolatry

536
00:26:27,065 --> 00:26:28,980
and an awakening.

537
00:26:29,009 --> 00:26:30,445
Very good, Clay.

538
00:26:30,471 --> 00:26:34,170
Archie, what did you think
of Ginsberg's poem?

539
00:26:34,254 --> 00:26:35,805
I...

540
00:26:37,104 --> 00:26:39,711
couldn't sleep after reading it.

541
00:26:41,391 --> 00:26:43,824
Where does a humdinger
like Howleven come from?

542
00:26:43,850 --> 00:26:46,164
Well, Allen's lived a lot of life.

543
00:26:46,336 --> 00:26:47,547
My husband says,

544
00:26:47,573 --> 00:26:51,727
"You can't be a real poet
without really... living."

545
00:26:51,820 --> 00:26:53,531
Well, in that case,

546
00:26:53,728 --> 00:26:56,446
I'm never gonna be able to
write anything like Howl.

547
00:26:56,590 --> 00:26:58,524
Why would you say that, Archie?

548
00:26:58,700 --> 00:27:01,485
Because look at me, Ms. Grundy.
I'm a square.

549
00:27:01,592 --> 00:27:02,860
What am I gonna write about?

550
00:27:02,886 --> 00:27:05,785
Jack Kerouac played football
in small-town Massachusetts

551
00:27:05,811 --> 00:27:08,118
before going to Columbia
to study writing.

552
00:27:08,144 --> 00:27:09,624
Maybe it's more about

553
00:27:09,733 --> 00:27:11,908
keeping an open mind about things.

554
00:27:11,934 --> 00:27:14,589
Being open to trying new things,

555
00:27:14,633 --> 00:27:17,321
with different people.

556
00:27:17,592 --> 00:27:21,805
Or more than one person, maybe two.

557
00:27:22,521 --> 00:27:24,656
Let me ask you this, Archie.

558
00:27:25,264 --> 00:27:27,563
Have you ever seen the sunrise?

559
00:27:27,806 --> 00:27:28,875
Sure.

560
00:27:28,901 --> 00:27:31,297
You mean like waking up early
for basketball practice?

561
00:27:31,323 --> 00:27:33,875
No, no, I mean staying up all night.

562
00:27:34,465 --> 00:27:37,180
With your friends, drinking coffee and...

563
00:27:37,406 --> 00:27:40,141
getting into deep
philosophical conversations

564
00:27:40,167 --> 00:27:44,055
that last until the sky
streaks pink and yellow

565
00:27:44,081 --> 00:27:45,594
with the dawn's early light.

566
00:27:45,620 --> 00:27:47,970
My husband and I do that, once a month.

567
00:27:49,501 --> 00:27:51,352
Let me tell you, it is...

568
00:27:52,477 --> 00:27:53,821
transcendent.

569
00:27:54,515 --> 00:27:57,485
It's like... being reborn.

570
00:27:58,947 --> 00:28:00,000
Betty,

571
00:28:00,186 --> 00:28:01,758
what's your take on Howl?

572
00:28:01,784 --> 00:28:06,016
To be honest, Mrs. Grundy, I'm
halfway through it, and...

573
00:28:08,265 --> 00:28:12,524
so far, I appreciate how...

574
00:28:12,550 --> 00:28:16,380
How it isn't afraid to
ask the hard questions?

575
00:28:16,477 --> 00:28:18,828
To have the difficult conversations

576
00:28:18,854 --> 00:28:20,492
that many of us are...

577
00:28:21,100 --> 00:28:22,969
too afraid to even begin?

578
00:28:34,483 --> 00:28:36,016
Lady's Leisure?

579
00:28:37,152 --> 00:28:38,806
Any interesting article...

580
00:28:38,832 --> 00:28:41,203
What can I do for you, Elizabeth?

581
00:28:41,656 --> 00:28:44,352
I came here to see if
you wanted to join me

582
00:28:44,378 --> 00:28:46,914
and my gal pals tonight
at the Babylonium.

583
00:28:49,039 --> 00:28:50,649
Polly's performing.

584
00:28:52,451 --> 00:28:53,508
What?

585
00:28:54,334 --> 00:28:57,016
Polly's here? In Riverdale?

586
00:28:57,042 --> 00:28:58,367
And she's performing?

587
00:28:58,393 --> 00:29:00,328
She is. I called her.

588
00:29:01,914 --> 00:29:04,071
When were you planning on
telling me that my sister

589
00:29:04,097 --> 00:29:06,399
is a world famous burlesque dancer?

590
00:29:06,425 --> 00:29:08,862
Never, if I had my druthers.

591
00:29:10,354 --> 00:29:14,315
So is that why you've been
so down on me all this time?

592
00:29:14,341 --> 00:29:17,188
Are you punishing me
for Polly's choices,

593
00:29:17,214 --> 00:29:20,430
or trying to make sure that I
don't follow in her footsteps?

594
00:29:20,617 --> 00:29:22,789
I can't believe your
sister's here, performing.

595
00:29:22,815 --> 00:29:24,164
Well, she is.

596
00:29:24,190 --> 00:29:26,133
She's living her life, Mom,

597
00:29:26,159 --> 00:29:30,156
without us because you
decided to cut her off.

598
00:29:30,693 --> 00:29:33,172
Oh, did you know that she's engaged?

599
00:29:33,798 --> 00:29:35,406
To a stockbroker.

600
00:29:37,007 --> 00:29:39,016
Don't you want to go to her wedding?

601
00:29:39,392 --> 00:29:41,884
Please, just come to
the show tonight, Mom.

602
00:29:41,910 --> 00:29:45,750
Imagine what a great surprise
that it would be for her,

603
00:29:45,776 --> 00:29:49,446
not to mention the best
chance we have to...

604
00:29:49,736 --> 00:29:51,750
just be a family again.

605
00:29:51,806 --> 00:29:53,406
In what world

606
00:29:53,432 --> 00:29:55,766
would I wanna go and watch my daughter

607
00:29:55,792 --> 00:29:57,750
debase herself for dirty old men?

608
00:29:57,776 --> 00:29:59,625
It is not for dirty old men.

609
00:29:59,651 --> 00:30:01,174
It is just for girls.

610
00:30:01,220 --> 00:30:03,438
Well, I don't care if
it's for the Virgin Mary.

611
00:30:04,669 --> 00:30:06,133
Well, I'm going.

612
00:30:07,075 --> 00:30:09,391
And don't even try to forbid me.

613
00:30:09,506 --> 00:30:12,344
Because I'm proud of Polly

614
00:30:12,376 --> 00:30:14,291
and I want to support her,

615
00:30:14,317 --> 00:30:17,758
and show her that I love and
accept her no matter what.

616
00:30:18,955 --> 00:30:20,485
Unlike her mother.

617
00:30:26,981 --> 00:30:28,149
You ready?

618
00:30:28,273 --> 00:30:29,359
Ready.

619
00:30:53,273 --> 00:30:54,308
What...

620
00:30:54,334 --> 00:30:55,349
No.

621
00:30:55,533 --> 00:30:58,419
No, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no! No!

622
00:30:58,445 --> 00:31:00,903
What are we supposed to do now?

623
00:31:00,929 --> 00:31:02,800
I'm horny as heck!

624
00:31:04,633 --> 00:31:06,239
Me, too, Reg.

625
00:31:06,691 --> 00:31:08,075
Me, too.

626
00:31:09,525 --> 00:31:10,583
Wait...

627
00:31:12,944 --> 00:31:14,263
I got an idea.

628
00:31:16,369 --> 00:31:18,066
Now it's little raunchy,

629
00:31:18,281 --> 00:31:19,911
but, I mean, if you're up for it...

630
00:31:34,612 --> 00:31:36,583
Well, well, well.

631
00:31:37,292 --> 00:31:39,732
Looks like Twyla hit
the jackpot tonight.

632
00:31:40,919 --> 00:31:44,802
Now, which one of you hunks of Wisconsin
man-cheese is coming in first?

633
00:31:46,315 --> 00:31:49,146
Or maybe you both wanna come in...

634
00:31:49,670 --> 00:31:51,216
at the same time?

635
00:32:15,291 --> 00:32:17,045
Ladies and...

636
00:32:17,071 --> 00:32:18,271
Ladies.

637
00:32:20,867 --> 00:32:23,276
The Babylonium takes great pleasure

638
00:32:23,302 --> 00:32:26,310
in presenting the one, the only,

639
00:32:26,336 --> 00:32:28,796
Miss Polly Amorous!

640
00:32:36,002 --> 00:32:38,795
? Curtain up ?

641
00:32:39,866 --> 00:32:42,834
? Light the lights ?

642
00:32:43,302 --> 00:32:45,652
? Play it, boys! ?

643
00:32:47,852 --> 00:32:51,856
? Ya either got it Or ya ain't ?

644
00:32:51,963 --> 00:32:55,146
? And, boys, I got it! ?

645
00:32:57,148 --> 00:33:01,091
? Some people got it And make it pay ?

646
00:33:01,334 --> 00:33:05,326
? Some people Can't even give it away ?

647
00:33:05,352 --> 00:33:07,123
? This people's got it ?

648
00:33:07,149 --> 00:33:12,365
? And this people's
Spreadin' it around ?

649
00:33:12,459 --> 00:33:14,982
? You either have it ?

650
00:33:16,431 --> 00:33:18,591
? Or you've had it ?

651
00:33:19,303 --> 00:33:21,349
? Hello, everybody! ?

652
00:33:21,443 --> 00:33:23,305
? Mama's talkin' loud ?

653
00:33:23,349 --> 00:33:25,003
? Mama's doin' fine ?

654
00:33:25,046 --> 00:33:26,693
? Mama's gettin' hot ?

655
00:33:26,719 --> 00:33:28,279
? Mama's goin' strong ?

656
00:33:28,305 --> 00:33:30,170
? Mama's movin' on ?

657
00:33:30,196 --> 00:33:31,806
? Mama's all alone ?

658
00:33:31,846 --> 00:33:33,439
? Mama doesn't care ?

659
00:33:33,465 --> 00:33:35,193
? Mama's lettin' loose ?

660
00:33:35,219 --> 00:33:36,884
? Mama's got the stuff ?

661
00:33:36,927 --> 00:33:39,427
? Mama's lettin' go! ?

662
00:33:41,218 --> 00:33:43,357
? Why did I do it? ?

663
00:33:47,328 --> 00:33:50,295
? Give 'em love And
what does it get ya? ?

664
00:33:50,599 --> 00:33:52,170
? What does it get ya? ?

665
00:33:52,196 --> 00:33:55,334
? One quick look As each
of 'em leaves you ?

666
00:33:56,513 --> 00:33:59,080
? All your life And
what does it get ya? ?

667
00:33:59,124 --> 00:34:01,474
? Thanks a lot And out
with the garbage ?

668
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:05,099
? They take bows And
you're battin' zero ?

669
00:34:06,638 --> 00:34:11,614
? Everything's Coming up roses ?

670
00:34:11,658 --> 00:34:16,489
? Everything's Coming up roses ?

671
00:34:16,532 --> 00:34:20,188
? Everything's Coming up roses ?

672
00:34:20,214 --> 00:34:23,920
? This time for me ?

673
00:34:24,939 --> 00:34:27,123
? For me ?

674
00:34:28,049 --> 00:34:29,659
? For me! ?

675
00:34:29,695 --> 00:34:31,262
? For me! ?

676
00:34:31,312 --> 00:34:32,574
? For me! ?

677
00:34:32,618 --> 00:34:34,310
? For me! ?

678
00:34:36,564 --> 00:34:42,115
? For me! ?

679
00:34:57,679 --> 00:35:01,326
Polly, that was spectacular.

680
00:35:01,352 --> 00:35:03,029
Oh, it was okay.

681
00:35:03,055 --> 00:35:04,970
Still working out the kinks.

682
00:35:05,006 --> 00:35:06,435
Well, some of them.

683
00:35:06,488 --> 00:35:07,881
I'm just glad I finally got to see

684
00:35:07,907 --> 00:35:10,966
a bona fide burlesque star in the flesh.

685
00:35:11,085 --> 00:35:14,256
But interestingly, not too much flesh.

686
00:35:14,286 --> 00:35:15,670
Well, that is correct.

687
00:35:15,696 --> 00:35:18,417
If you're good enough, you
can suggest more than show.

688
00:35:18,443 --> 00:35:22,529
Well, you, my dear Miss
Amorous are better than good.

689
00:35:22,740 --> 00:35:24,861
I'm just sorry that Mom didn't come.

690
00:35:24,905 --> 00:35:26,748
I really thought that she might rally.

691
00:35:26,774 --> 00:35:29,756
It's okay. She doesn't
believe in what I do.

692
00:35:29,816 --> 00:35:32,906
But that's on her. Not me or you.

693
00:35:33,029 --> 00:35:34,279
Look, Betty,

694
00:35:34,538 --> 00:35:37,341
if you take anything from
my visit, let it be this.

695
00:35:37,455 --> 00:35:40,115
When you find the thing that you love,

696
00:35:40,414 --> 00:35:42,503
just promise me that you'll do it.

697
00:35:42,625 --> 00:35:45,912
No matter what Mom or anybody says.

698
00:35:46,039 --> 00:35:47,239
I promise.

699
00:35:48,217 --> 00:35:49,381
And...

700
00:35:50,373 --> 00:35:53,552
I want nothing more than
to be your maid of honor.

701
00:35:53,681 --> 00:35:55,123
Oh, Betty.

702
00:35:56,362 --> 00:35:58,388
Oh, consider yourself booked.

703
00:36:11,173 --> 00:36:12,847
Mrs. Grundy was right.

704
00:36:14,879 --> 00:36:17,503
Staying up all night really
does make the dawn look...

705
00:36:17,529 --> 00:36:19,687
Different. Somehow.

706
00:36:20,554 --> 00:36:21,573
Yeah.

707
00:36:24,614 --> 00:36:26,183
And now that we've...

708
00:36:29,875 --> 00:36:33,761
expanded our horizons...

709
00:36:33,787 --> 00:36:35,397
It seems like...

710
00:36:35,846 --> 00:36:38,022
anything's possible at this point.

711
00:36:45,264 --> 00:36:47,800
I love you, Reggie.

712
00:36:49,222 --> 00:36:50,831
I love you, too, bud.

713
00:37:13,707 --> 00:37:15,087
Sweetheart.

714
00:37:15,113 --> 00:37:16,394
Something wrong?

715
00:37:16,506 --> 00:37:19,746
Perhaps you should pray
on it in the chapel.

716
00:37:20,066 --> 00:37:22,556
I don't get to go as often as I'd like,

717
00:37:22,582 --> 00:37:26,707
but when I do I find such comfort there.

718
00:37:29,630 --> 00:37:32,067
Toni, I have a question for you.

719
00:37:32,252 --> 00:37:34,704
Do you still have the negatives
from our photoshoot?

720
00:37:34,730 --> 00:37:37,097
Of course. Why?

721
00:37:37,255 --> 00:37:39,050
My hideous mother

722
00:37:39,402 --> 00:37:41,464
and by extension, my father.

723
00:37:42,377 --> 00:37:44,339
I can't keep living at their mercy.

724
00:37:44,564 --> 00:37:47,433
I wanna shut them up and shut them down,

725
00:37:47,601 --> 00:37:50,043
once and for all.

726
00:37:55,095 --> 00:37:57,277
Didn't hear you come in last night.

727
00:37:59,199 --> 00:38:02,254
I presume Polly's on her
way back to New York City?

728
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,355
Yes.

729
00:38:04,717 --> 00:38:07,447
And I'm so jealous. She has...

730
00:38:08,238 --> 00:38:09,541
freedom,

731
00:38:10,175 --> 00:38:11,418
a career she loves,

732
00:38:11,444 --> 00:38:13,259
someone in her life who worships her.

733
00:38:13,285 --> 00:38:15,347
That's more than any one
of us here can say.

734
00:38:15,388 --> 00:38:18,324
Don't pick a fight with me, Elizabeth.
I'm not in the mood.

735
00:38:18,350 --> 00:38:20,472
So when are you going to stop?

736
00:38:22,373 --> 00:38:25,015
Stop sabotaging our family?

737
00:38:25,041 --> 00:38:27,347
- Oh, is that what you think I'm doing?
- Well, isn't it?

738
00:38:27,418 --> 00:38:31,047
Did you forget when you
disowned me as your daughter?

739
00:38:31,105 --> 00:38:34,011
You drove Polly away.

740
00:38:34,037 --> 00:38:36,953
We couldn't even have
one night together,

741
00:38:36,979 --> 00:38:39,152
the three of us, because
of your hang-ups.

742
00:38:39,178 --> 00:38:43,902
You know what? You are
a sad, lonely woman.

743
00:38:43,955 --> 00:38:46,199
And it is all your own doing.

744
00:38:46,225 --> 00:38:47,705
But I'll tell you this, Mom,

745
00:38:47,731 --> 00:38:50,267
I am not giving you any
more power over my life

746
00:38:50,293 --> 00:38:52,407
because you will ruin it.

747
00:38:52,433 --> 00:38:54,157
I'm going to do exactly what Polly did.

748
00:38:54,183 --> 00:38:56,925
And the second I can leave
this town, I'm gone.

749
00:38:56,951 --> 00:38:58,019
Fine.

750
00:38:58,282 --> 00:38:59,544
Go!

751
00:39:01,050 --> 00:39:02,749
You should know, after last night,

752
00:39:02,775 --> 00:39:04,511
I'm thinking of following
in Polly's footsteps

753
00:39:04,537 --> 00:39:06,485
and becoming a burlesque dancer, too.

754
00:39:06,511 --> 00:39:09,347
Except maybe I'll take
off all my clothes.

755
00:39:09,390 --> 00:39:11,136
And then what will you
tell your friends?

756
00:39:11,162 --> 00:39:13,847
Or will you just pretend
that I don't exist

757
00:39:13,873 --> 00:39:15,496
or that I died tragically?

758
00:39:15,522 --> 00:39:17,058
- Elizabeth...
- It doesn't matter

759
00:39:17,084 --> 00:39:18,781
because I won't be in this house.

760
00:39:18,808 --> 00:39:20,573
I will be far away from you

761
00:39:20,599 --> 00:39:23,777
doing whatever I want,
and you can't stop me.

762
00:39:44,765 --> 00:39:47,611
I'm surprised it took you
this long to do that.

763
00:39:54,805 --> 00:39:56,501
So what happens now?

764
00:39:57,462 --> 00:40:00,532
Well, if we don't follow their code,

765
00:40:00,819 --> 00:40:03,993
we can't publish our comics
with their "Seal of Approval."

766
00:40:04,019 --> 00:40:05,236
And if we can't get that,

767
00:40:05,262 --> 00:40:07,728
then publishers won't print our comics.

768
00:40:07,754 --> 00:40:09,548
Distributors will not ship them,

769
00:40:09,574 --> 00:40:11,491
and newsstands will not sell them.

770
00:40:11,517 --> 00:40:15,353
So, we either follow
their cock-eyed rules,

771
00:40:15,417 --> 00:40:17,736
or we go the way of the dodos.

772
00:40:19,648 --> 00:40:21,611
How could I have been so naive?

773
00:40:23,141 --> 00:40:27,667
I, I really thought that there
was a way through this.

774
00:40:27,789 --> 00:40:30,423
You weren't naive, Jughead.

775
00:40:31,124 --> 00:40:33,525
You were fighting for what's right.

776
00:40:33,926 --> 00:40:36,243
For what this country stands for...

777
00:40:37,100 --> 00:40:39,204
or what it's supposed to stand for.

778
00:40:39,611 --> 00:40:41,564
Well, shucks,

779
00:40:42,001 --> 00:40:43,532
who even needs the Russian invasion

780
00:40:43,558 --> 00:40:45,694
when we're happily destroying ourselves?

781
00:40:45,720 --> 00:40:48,415
Don't you worry, Nick Charles,
we'll figure something out.

782
00:40:48,441 --> 00:40:49,954
Oh, "we" will?

783
00:40:51,795 --> 00:40:52,970
I mean,

784
00:40:54,442 --> 00:40:57,204
I just sort of said
that to say something.

785
00:41:00,265 --> 00:41:03,595
But here we find ourselves...

786
00:41:04,699 --> 00:41:06,157
once again,

787
00:41:07,134 --> 00:41:09,157
just the two of us.

788
00:41:10,922 --> 00:41:12,259
We...

789
00:41:13,183 --> 00:41:15,618
kind of blew it last time, didn't we?

790
00:41:17,774 --> 00:41:18,962
We did.

791
00:41:21,839 --> 00:41:23,118
But as I said...

792
00:41:26,050 --> 00:41:27,376
here we are again.

793
00:41:28,849 --> 00:41:31,103
Here we are again.

794
