Which is about quarter to nine I go to the living room when I look at and I can see one of those
Clock temperature things you know that flash on and for the first time

He's been seen here and there yeah, yeah, so he's he's death right?
Well you see now. I didn't want to tell that
Yeah, yeah, yeah every yeah, it says yeah, he's dead too much away in these movies now
You're right. He's death that he's in the body of Brad Pitt. Well if you got he's got to be in some body might as well be Brad Pitt
Yeah
As we were leaving
Laurie girlfriends
Gilman's girlfriend said if that's death let's get going
Incidentally Gilman's got a little bit of a crisis coming Laurie's two sisters. I think they're here this morning
Where are they they're hiding right over there? Yeah?
Those are her two half sisters. Yeah, and very sweet nice. Hi ladies. How you doing?
How are you nice to see you aren't they attractive?
They are, well Laurie's a lovely girl
They are here on a mission
To find out what's going on with Laurie
Oh
They're not going to get any answers out of him
Well I'm telling them that Laurie is very very happy
And I'm trying to stick up for Gilman and it's taking a while
But they're here for the whole weekend and
Good luck
They want to know about her future
Are either of you married?
Yes
Oh no wonder yeah
Both of them are married
So the pressure is on your children?
Oh, forget it then
Gonna be a long weekend for Gilman
I'm going away
You're going away? Smart report
Gilman can't take it he's getting out of town
Long Island
Alright do you know who the new
Oh listen have you seen the headlines in the paper today?
I guess Bill Clinton is now taking back his offer to Paula Jones you know to get rid of that lawsuit
Says he'll take his chances in court huh?
That's right yeah especially after the selection
So the paper's had a little fun with that here and Bill Yanks Paula's offer is one
I'm just reading the headlines
Hold your breath now
That old New York Post
Anyway there you go
Please
I don't write this stuff we just it's there
They just have a little too much fun over there don't they?
You know who the sexiest new man of the year is?
It's the People magazine every year they do it
You know what this year I happen to agree with them
I don't very often agree with them but I think this year they got it right
Harrison Ford
Harrison Ford
He's so unaware of how sexy he is
Knowing as little as we do of him but we do know him a little bit
He's been here a couple of times
You can just imagine him wincing when he hears that
He had some very funny lines about it Reggie
Do you have the USA Today?
No yeah I do yeah
I think he had some cute things to say about that
I can just imagine he's 56 years old
So it's a
He's a kid that's what am I picking up the sports page for here?
Notre Dame plays Boston College this weekend
I hate the sports page
Big game
Boston College lost five straight
Notre Dame's won five straight
Artificial turf could be a problem for Notre Dame
Maybe I got it wrong
But I hope not
Are you through?
It's one of the other ones don't yell at me
It's one of the other ones
You did jump didn't you?
Yes
You're not used to anybody yelling at you
I've had this cold and I feel like I'm in one of those tunnels
And you just finally popped the eardrum this big
Big clog for a week thanks Reg
Anyway he's talking about since when do you guys take pity on an old geezer like me or something like that
And he talked about all the things that are wrong with the way he looks
I didn't agree with him about any of them
His face is not symmetrical, who cares
He's not fattish, he's not...
What did he say? I'm not cutting edge anything then that's why I'm still around
Because if you're something new then there's always something that's going to replace you when you're new
He's just never tried to be new, he just is
I don't know I think he's adorable, he seems very comfortable in his own shoes
He's got cute feet too, I saw him once
You saw Harrison Ford's feet?
Only in a picture, not personally
I asked he wouldn't show me
You know it's so funny, this guy in the post
Every time we have something a little bit different on the show
We get a little plug out of Michael Starr, you know, in the post
We had the world's biggest pumpkin
He gave us a plug
We had Dr. Scholl's foot contest yesterday
There's yesterday
Gave us a plug
This was funny though
I know but you know we've had Starrs on the show too
All of a sudden he says, note of interest
There will be no huge pumpkins or foot contest on Today Live with Regis and Katherine
What are we an oddity show?
You know, one of those believe it or not Ripley, believe it or not shows, you know
I don't know
Hey you see things on this show you might not see any place else
Because you wouldn't want to
Right?
That's right, exactly right
What are you going to do this weekend?
Don't know yet, I'm going to have a great lunch today with some girlfriends
That I'll tell you about on Monday
To be announced and then
Who are the girlfriends? Just tell us who they are
No way
Yeah
No, you don't even know those people
You wish
I wish
You hope
I wish, it should be fun
I'm looking very much forward to that
And then a quiet weekend, what about you?
Well, me
You're going to Notre Dame
No, no, I went last weekend
I know but it's the weekend again, I thought you might be going again
Boston College this weekend
I don't know, audience is a little weird today, aren't they coming?
Eh?
You know what it is? It's her sisters, they're here
The audience feels the tension
These sisters are here to save their sissy
Save their sissy
So we went over to a restaurant last night, we had a little meal
And I said to them, look at her
Look how happy this woman is
She can't be happier than what she is right now
Well, if they truly love her, then that's all they care about is her happiness, right ladies?
So that's all you really care about?
Well, last night you were holding up rings to me
Oh, stop
Having a little fun
Look like they're beaten already
Gelman, we got the upper hand here
Do you want Gelman to get married and have children?
Is that what you're trying to say or do you want him never to get married and never to have children?
What do you want, Reg?
I want Gelman to be happy, that's all
Because if Gelman's happy, we're happy
Well, if you really wanted him to be happy, you wouldn't bring up his personal life all the time
Which is very uncomfortable
No, but don't you understand? These women are here on a mission
Every woman thinks every other woman should be married
That's just the way it is
We're just making this up, he's creating a drama that doesn't exist
It's a dramatic moment in Gelman's life and I'm trying to help him
I think some people should not be married
Should Gelman be married?
Not for me to decide, but there are some people who really think the institution of marriage
Did we tiptoe away from that one?
Is not a happy state
Make a decision, should Gelman be married or not?
My personal opinion?
Yes, your personal opinion is what I'm asking for
If he wants to have children, I think that that's an important part of having children
I think that children should be part of a family
You mean the only reason you get married
That's my personal opinion
You always find a way to come out on the side of the angels, you know?
That's the only reason you think Gelman should get married is if he wants to have children
I don't think it's the only reason, but if he plans to have children, I think that that's a nice thing to do for your children
I know, but let's exclude children at this point
Should Gelman get married? That's the question
If he believes this is the only woman in the world for him and he's going to be a great and wonderful partner for the rest of his life to her, yeah, I think he should get married
Then that's the question Gelman's got to answer
Gelman, I tried to help, I really did
Thank you, Kat
That's the question we want to hear the answer to, Gelman
And when you find the answer, let us know
He has a great role model in his mother and father
How many years?
Long time, coming on 40
How many in there? 40, 45?
So you know what? When you've had that kind of a role model, I mean it can work two ways
Say you've had a broken marriage, you come from a broken marriage
Then you're a little afraid of marriage because you've seen the unhappiness that an unhappy marriage can cause and you're part of it, right?
So you say I'm a little afraid of getting married
But if you've seen a great marriage, you want to make sure yours is going to be the same before you go into it
I'm getting bored
I don't want to talk about it anymore
I've talked about it all night with them, all this morning with you
I've been in an unhappy marriage
If he wants to get married, let him get married
If he doesn't want to get married, don't get married
I've been in an unhappy marriage and a happy marriage
Yeah, we heard about it
I'd rather...
No, you didn't hear about it
Knowing what I know about being in an unhappy marriage, I'd rather not be married for the rest of my life than ever again be in an unhappy marriage
Congratulations
Alright
Alright?
Sick and tired of talking about him and his marriage
Then don't bring it up anymore
Monday on Live, Zena, the warrior princess will be here
Lucy
Lucy Wallace
She's a doll
We begin Live's fall fashion frenzy with a look at the fall and holiday fashions for kids
I think Richard Simmons should get married though
He needs to settle down
Well, you know, it might be an interesting question
I'm sure Richard loves children
He adores children
I'm sure he'd like to have some little Simmons' running around with the big hair, you know
Little pants, little pants
Little pants, little short pants
They could dress alike
There's all kinds of possibilities with Richard Simmons
He's coming out here
I'm gonna ask him right now
You know, we have never seriously talked to him about that
In all the years we've had him on
I knew it
Today we're gonna talk about that
Okay
Oh, that'll make you stick around
And actress Kate Mulgrew will be here too
Now Kate stars as Captain Catherine Janeway on the series Star Trek Voyager
William Shatner was at the helm during the original 1960 series Star Trek
What was the full name of his character on Star Trek?
The entire name, okay?
That's not the entire name
Really?
Ah, okay, good for you
The initial
She wants the initial too, okay?
On a show
I'm tough today
In addition to Richard, we have Fred Savage from Working
Just Kidding Challenge week continues with our three-year-old car whiz Jonathan Rothman from Montreal, Canada
Tired of being humiliated by these kids, Gilman
I'm really tired of it
We're gonna get two shots finally from Dr. Isidore Rosenfeld
And you're gonna have one more little test, okay, for the three of you
You know, it's so tough because a lot of the cars are looking alike
And this kid can identify cars, you know, in a big disney
What's this one, Rach?
That's a four-wheeler
Last I looked, most cars and trucks had four wheels
Yeah, that's a Land Cruiser
That's a Mazda B Series
Mazda B Series, right?
Wrong
Alrighty, what's this one?
Pontiac, Bobcat
Porsche Boxster
Porsche Boxster, right?
Wrong again, Buzzard Breath, okay
What's this? You'll know this one
Mustang
Ford Mustang, right, good for you
Okay
Ah, you won't get this one
That's a Plymouth
Chrysler Sebring
Well
What's this one?
You'll get this one
It's a Jaguar
It's a Lincoln Town Car
Lincoln Town Car
Station wagon
Lexus
Lexus
Another sport vehicle
Subaru Forester
There you go, babe
You are gonna get trounced today by a three-year-old
No, we have been beaten all week
You were the only one that tied
Excuse me, I held
You held your own
I beat every one of those little kids
No, no, those kids kept going
Didn't you see me walk by and nudge the kids?
Sorry, sorry, I beat those kids fair and square
Let's keep her happy
Yes, you did, Kathie Lee
Yes, I did, Rach
Yes, you did
I know when I'm beaten and when I win, doggone it
You win all the time
Those stickers, how dare they?
I gave them their trophies
Boy, you're taking this seriously
You are a competitive son of a gun, you know?
Yeah, I really want to trounce a three-year-old
Yeah, I really do
I'll handle this kid today
Okay
Karen Linder, who lives on, listen to this title for an Ohio town, mentor on the lake
Excuse us
Will excuse us
For living elsewhere
Karen, how you doing?
Hello, Karen
Hi, Kathie Lee
Hey, Karen, what about Reach?
How about Reach? Say hi to him, too
I did, hi, Reach
Oh, hi, we didn't hear that
We didn't hear it, Karen
Tell us-
How are you today, hon?
Oh, I'm very nervous
Tell us about mentor on the lake
That was very cold
Sorry, I'm putting you back in reception here
Yeah
There you go
On the lake
I can't hear you, I'm sorry
Oh, God, 20 minutes
Shall I pick up the headphone?
No
Hey, Karen
Yes?
We just think that's an unusual name for a town
Where does it come from, mentor on the lake?
Well, probably because we're very close to the lake and we're part of MEN-er
Oh, where's- it's MEN-er
We think of mentor as someone who takes on someone and teaches
Are you still there, Karen?
Like our sound people need a mentor
Yeah
Well, Karen, it's awfully nice talking with you
I'm sorry
We wish we could
Yes
Did you hear the question, sweetie?
Yes, I did
Do you know the answer?
Is it James T. Kirk?
Captain James T. Kirk is what you meant, right?
Right
You got it
You win
Please pick a number between 1 and 166
This is the easy part, Karen
Is she gone?
89
89

Okay, congratulations
It's that time of year again, you know, the cold and flu season
I've had it all week
A little late for me to get my annual shop, but who knows
No, no, you only had a cold
You haven't had the flu
You don't want to get the flu
You're probably right
It's time, though, for our annual flu shot
We do this every year
In the public interest
And here he is, a famed cardiologist from New York Presbyterian Hospital
Rock on tour, author and...
All-around party animal
And look-alike and sound-alike to the world
And look-alike and sound-alike to Walter Mathau
Here's Dr. Isidore Rosenfeld
Dr. Isidore
Hi, Dr. Good to see you again
How are you?
You're a little nervous with the gloves, don't you?
Yeah, we don't like gloves
You know, the white gloves, they're a little scary
Listen, I want to thank you for the opportunity of letting me give you a flu shot
I haven't given a flu shot to anyone myself in 20 years
I have my nurses do it
I don't even know what to do, but we'll try our best
You know, this is exactly what I thought about when Gellman told me you were doing the shot
It's far too important to just do flu shots
He doesn't do flu shots
I'll do it, but we'll try
I seem to remember
Oh, I know
This looks familiar
Oh, I don't like it
Maybe I should give it to you, Reg
Be just as good
Is this the time of year?
This is the time of year to get these shots
Yeah, it's a bit late
Of course it's late
I say it's late, it's never too late
But it's better to do it earlier in October
Now, I've got to ask you two things before
Anybody who gets a flu shot should make sure about this
Are you pregnant?
First of all, do you have a cold or any other infection?
Yes
I know, I heard about it
Yes, I've got a cold
And I'm not sure that you should get it
You know...
He's a man
Yeah, you're probably right
You've got an active cold, you probably shouldn't
No, I probably shouldn't
There's very little that's active in him anymore
It's fine
Oh
Can you possibly do that on her tongue?
That's very active
Maybe I shouldn't do it because I do
I know, I knew the joke
Reg, you're much better
You need to get your...
He's chickening out, you know
You know, you know what I want to ask you?
I've been reading about you in the paper, Doc
I can't
You are, Sophia Lorenz, doctor
Set straight for us the room
Regis
Trying to make room here
She's fine, right?
Sophia is fine
Oh, I'm so sick
Yes, I just gave her a flu shot, as a matter of fact
She's fine
She's fine, okay
Still fine
Now, I've got to ask you one more question
Are you allergic to egg protein?
Eggs or anything to do with chicken?
Oh, yeah, I am
No, I'm not
Just, you know, those sulfur in some of the antibiotics
This guy has some allergic to that
The reason I ask you is that...
Richard Simmons is...
Now, you will get the famous painless shot
Look at this
Okay
Is it all right?
I'm not going to...
People think they're going to get the flu
Now, did you feel that?
I felt it, but you were gentle
You know the reason for the gloves?
It's not to protect you, it's to protect me
When doctors give a shot, there's sometimes some bleeding
And doctors don't like to get blood on their hands
And that's the reason for the gloves
Well, I'm glad you're safe and sound
I only learned that yesterday
Yeah
I was so happy to hear you're safe and sound
Now, I'm going to get our kids flu shots for the first time this year
Do you recommend that?
Yeah, I tell you, they say people over 65, people who are sick and so on
Are the recommended recipients
In my view, anybody should get a flu shot
Because even though the flu may not kill you
It can make you awfully miserable
Pretty miserable, exactly right
So why not get it?
My little boy's just been diagnosed with asthma
So he's a little vulnerable in all that area anyway
I wouldn't...
Here, just take this off, I've got the gloves on here
Here, I can do it
Can we do it?
Thank you
The other thing is, I don't recommend it for people in the first three months of pregnancy
Or whoever called
Or whoever called
I don't even know why you're so painless, I don't even know where you did it
Right
Okay, thank you
Thank you very much, Dr. Rosenfeld
Are you going to have one?
I don't want you to go away, no, but I'm not feeling well
Maybe I shouldn't have it
No, I don't think you should
But Richard Simmons needs a flu shot
I saw him in the dressing room, he does
And when we come back...
He needs to get it in his rear end
Well, actually he's dressed for it
I know
We're going to give him a flu shot, okay?
We'll be right back
Thank you
Have a nice evening
We just takes on a three-year-old car whiz as we wrap up Just Kidding Challenge Week
And coming up next, Richard Simmons
The one and the only, the legendary Richard Simmons
Right here
Hi, Richard
It's so good to be back
Don't spit, honey
Where to go? Where to go? Where to go?
You look so adorable
Well, I'm excited because I'm in the middle of my mall tour
Your mall tour, yeah
Nothing excites you like a good mall, does it?
Give me a mall
Well, you're on your way to Hicksville tomorrow
I'm going to Hicksville to the Broadway... Hicksville
It's in Long Island
Yes
And it's the Broadway mall, and at noon I turn it into like a...
Oh, I like a... I build a big stage with big speakers
And you think the Rolling Stones are coming
And thousands of people show up and we sweat
Oh
And exercise
Can't beat a good weekend like that, can you?
Wait, I'm not finished
Then I'm going to a wedding
I'm going to a wedding in a long time
Who's getting married?
Well, my boss's son, Michael, is getting married to this beautiful girl named Shirley
So I'm going to a wedding
Your boss?
Michael, you're your manager?
No, no, Mike, no
Who's your boss?
I have a boss... You have a boss, don't you?
Yeah, but I didn't know you had a boss
I thought you were like a free spirit
No, I have a boss
Okay, so he's getting married
His name is Mr. Carey, and his son, Michael, is getting married
I understand that we were just talking about marriage here and children
And then... Wait, and then I go to Wheeling, West Virginia
West Virginia, yes
Have you been there?
Let me tell you what they did, because you all were talking about the flu shots
Did you get your flu shots?
You're about to get yours
No, but we have...
I don't think so
But anyway, so in Wheeling, the medical centers got together
And they're giving the entire city free testing for glaucoma, for diabetes
A lot of people need tests
Good idea
Free, free!
And then everyone that comes in and gets a test to see if they have something like diabetes
They get a ticket and they come to my class on Sunday
And that way they can learn about their body and exercise at the same time
Isn't that a great idea?
And... and... and I'm saying this, you know, because we're live here
And I'm going to Wheeling, West Virginia, but if any of you hospitals want to do that, I'll come to your city
You could right here...
They give the person, if they have diabetes, they give them...
A test
A test, and they give them a little thing that says you have diabetes, and then they go see you?
They go to a doctor and take care of it
And then they go see you
And then they go see me for the exercise
I see
It's the combination of how you eat and how you exercise
But I'm saying right now, anyone listening in your city, if you want to do...
We had to hear about the Focac de Marais for 20 minutes over here
And accidentally we want to talk to you about that
About what?
Do you want to have little Richard Simmons?
In your heart of heart, I know you do
Or Rachel, or Rachel
Little Rachel Simmons, with big hair and little shorts
You know you do
Okay, I do
So, but you know you have to get married
I'm going to a wedding, I told you
My boss's son, Michael's getting married
And then you go to Wheeling, West Virginia, we heard, yes
Yeah, and Long Island
You love your mom, who's down in New Orleans
She's watching right now, my mother and my brother
And have grandchildren
Well, I gave her dogs
It's so much easier, you don't have to send them to college, you know
There's no bar mitzvahs, bar mitzvahs
So you feel no pressure like poor Gelman does
No, and I think that everyone should leave Mr. Gelman alone
About his personal life, okay?
It's those sisters who have come here to harass him
They have come here to be loving friends, they're friends
No, they're worried about this
You got a friend
They came here to see you get your flu shot
Come on out, Dr. Ruffles
Wait a minute, you are getting a flu shot
What do you mean I'm getting a flu shot?
Get security
I am strong
Get over here
Oh no, no, no, wait a minute
Set a good example for America
Okay, all right, I'll do that
I'll set a good example if you take one too
But I'm sick
I know, you can take it, if I can take it, you can take it
Okay, you go first
Oh my
Come here
I'll go
I'm not afraid of him
Go ahead, go ahead, show them, show them
I assume that both of you fellows have insurance
Where is that?
Raise it up
Usually, Rach, usually you want me to hold your hand
Do you want me to hold your hand?
Look, look at me
See, it was nothing, it was nothing
Thank you, doctor, big hand for the doctor
Thank you, thank you
I'll get over here, Richard
So anyway, Kathy, I'm so excited about going to Long Island to the Broadway
What are you doing?
Right here
You know, I played a nurse
You got it
One of the best days of my life, nurse Callahan
You got a friend
I love you
Rach, just stick them, doc, they're not going to talk
I love you, Wheely West Virginia
Rach, where's your, where's your
You got a friend
Richard, the way
You know, this is very serious
Everyone should have their flu shot
And Fred Savage hasn't had his flu shot either
Now look, the way you're dressed, you have an option as to where to have it
Well, well, do I get the convertible or the Explorer?
I think you're going to get the Explorer
Don't move, Rach, just
Ah
Maybe that's the secret, singing shot
That's it
We have got to go to commercial
And now we're going to a commercial
Don't forget to exercise for the next time
Thank you, everybody
Monday on Live, Xena Warrior Princess actress Lucy Lawless
Full responsibility for this whole thing right here

You must moisturize, moisturize, moisturize
Alright

Something very different happened to us this Halloween

Yes, they won.
Yeah.
I love it.
It's just good to win.
It's good to feel good about yourself.
And that's what exercise does.
You both do it.
How many people in this audience exercise on a regular basis?
Isn't it fun?
It's not fun, but you do like the results.
I don't enjoy it.
And November, December, toughest months, I beg people, exercise, cut your portions.
All right, Richard.
Get your flu shot.
Have a good time at Hitsville and in West Virginia.
We'll be right back with the next big show.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
It's almost over.
Almost over.
Still ahead on Live, Working Star Fred Savage.
Thank you.
This young man may not be old enough to drive, but he commands the road when it comes to
cars.
We're about to find out just how much he knows about cars.

That's right.
Oh, it is.
I don't know.
All right.
You know, I can tell you right now, we don't know what that...if that car's for the car,

We'll be right back with Fred Savage.
We've got a wonderful gift for him.
$100, be certificate to FAO Schwartz and Ms. McLaren F1 race car.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Monday I'm high back in the street.
Go blue.
He got up and he said, I'll give half the building and she got up and she got up and
both of them took the lead.
It was amazing.
Richard Sims was running around yelling, you never had a flu shot.
Richard Simmons, it was one of the greatest thrills of my life.
I was sitting in the makeup chair backstage, getting a massage from Richard Simmons.
It was like a dream come true.
For him too, believe me.
No, but you know, I mean, you look back on your life
and you wonder what choices you make
to get to be in a makeup chair
with Richard Simmons giving you a massage.
And it makes you kind of reflect back
and think about the last several years
and what you did to get there.
Was this your first, shall we say,
encounter with Richard Simmons?
You know, I had an encounter with Richard Simmons
actually when I was younger.
No kidding.
Yeah, yeah.
I could scar a man, you know.
I could, you know.
It could stunt a person's growth.
Nevermind.
A person's growth.
Thank you.
I, no, I was walking.
I was, it was before I lived in LA.
I was here on an audition for something, I think,
when I was younger.
And we were walking out of a hotel
and Richard Simmons is sitting
in this huge white convertible.
This big car filled with Dalmatians.
Just a ridiculous amount of Dalmatians.
Yes.
Yeah, he's got a whole bunch of Dalmatians at his home.
More Dalmatians than-
Than the movie.
Yeah, way more.
And all in this big, big white convertible.
And like, I was going for a run with my dad.
And my dad lifts up his shirt and he says,
hey Richard, you know, what do you think?
And Richard says, oh, you look great,
but just let your hair grow out a little more.
So now my dad has got his tremendous afro.
He's trying to look like Richard
because that's what he told him to do like 12 years ago.
So how are you doing, Fred?
Good.
Having a good time working?
Really well.
On working?
Yes, the show's going great.
The show's going really well.
What are you doing your off time anyway?
Well, we're actually off this week.
So I get to come to New York and-
And work.
And see you guys.
And, but I went to, I just went to Las Vegas
a couple of days ago and saw Tom Jones there.
Is he one of your favorites?
Does he still have it?
He has got it.
What's new, pussycat?
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nobody whoa, whoa's like him.
Nobody.
I'll tell you, Tom Jones has got, he's got it.
Like I just started seeing him like last year.
This is my second Tom Jones show.
Is that right?
Is he considered hip now with the kids?
The way he, I mean he used to be when we were kids, but.
Well, I'm not considered hip.
So I go see him, so I don't know what that means.
But I like him, I think he's cool.
He is cool.
I think he's a little one year over there.
I gamble a little bit, I gamble a little bit.
I used to play blackjack, but I got very frustrated at that
because I would get so mad at myself
and I would make a bad decision on the cards.
So now I play dice.
I play craps because I figure that I can't get mad
at myself because someone else is rolling.
Do you win?
I would if I left sooner.
Like I go, I'm, I'm, I fall.
Everybody has that trouble too.
I fall prey to every Vegas trick in the book, you know.
So I'm up and I'm like, I'm up, so I'll bet more, you know.
And I just lose, I.
You don't set a limit for yourself?
No, no, no, I should, I should.
He always gives the answer three times.
Have you noticed that?
I get very frustrated.
I just came back, so I'm very upset.
So you always make these.
How much did you lose?
Not, not like, like when I lose a hundred dollars,
I get very mad.
So I lost like a, maybe a little more than a hundred dollars.
It's the losing that drives you.
It's the losing that drives you.
And especially because you have many hundreds in front of you
and then they're gone so quickly.
But my parents are the good gamblers.
My parents are incredible.
They play blackjack and they have a system.
Like they, my dad, I came home like a few weeks ago
and my dad had bought a shoe, you know, with like six decks,
you know, so he could like deal to my mom.
And like, and my mom, my mom's, my mom counts cards.
Like she's brilliant.
Six decks. Like Rain Man.
She's incredible.
So like she and my dad had this system and I'm, you know,
my mom tells them, you know, if the deck,
how the deck is stacked and if there's a lot of face cards
coming up, like she, it's incredible.
So they win big, big time.
So they win all the time.
So like my dad's like, so how'd you do in Vegas?
I'm like, I lost.
He goes, yeah, I remember when I used to lose in Vegas.
You know, now he's like, now they're big shots.
You just found a good God fearing woman who can count cards.
Made all the difference in his life.
I need a very warm, I took that flu shot.
Not feeling so well, huh?
Why don't you introduce the clip for her?
Well, okay, because you play Matt Pizer in working
and you work for a company called Upton Webber.
And in this scene, your character doesn't understand
his coworkers' lack of ambition to move up in the world.
Is that pretty good?
Take a look.
Being a secretary allows me to pay my bills
and still have a life.
But don't you aspire to be more than just a secretary?
Why?
I see what the stress in the long hours does to you guys.
Me, I leave every day at five o'clock.
And I don't sacrifice my health and personal relationships
in the quest for the almighty dollar.
I know this must sound like sacrilege to you.
No, not sacrilege.
It's just that...
Do svidaniya, no?
Vodka, comrades?
No.
No.
Val, not many people were born with your God given talents.
Don't be afraid to cash in on it.
Management's the one making all the money anyway.
Why shouldn't you?
You know, if I were you, I would set my price,
and if it wasn't met, I wouldn't show up to work.
Probably sound like an opportunist.
No, not an opportunist.
It's just that...
Look, you only have a certain amount of earning years.
You gotta take advantage while you can.
You're not a role model.
Now that we think about it,
you've been working all your life, haven't you?
When did you start on that other series
where you played the little boy?
When I was...
The wonder years.
11, yeah.
11.
And how old are you now?
I'm 22.
Oh, please.
Half your life, you've been working.
I have, and I started doing commercials when I was six,
so I've been working for...
You're doing a great job, but you still...
And about to graduate from Stanford, huh?
Yeah, yeah.
Good for you.
Good for you.
Yes.
Thank you.
Take care, friends.
Nice to have you here.
Nice to have you here.
Great to see you guys here.
