YEAH. SORRY.

I'M, UH, JONATHAN MACINTYRE.

HI, JONATHAN.

I'M LIBERTY TAYLOR.

MOST PEOPLE:

JUST CALL ME LIBERTY,

OR LIBBY, I MEAN.

[laughing]

SORRY.

LIBERTY?

THAT'S A, UH, UNIQUE NAME.

YEAH. MY MOM THOUGHT I WOULD BE, YOU KNOW,

A GOOD WAY TO REMIND ME

THROUGHOUT MY LIFE

THAT I COULD BE AND DO

WHATEVER I WANT,

ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE,

YOU KNOW, THAT KIND OF THING.

WELL, THAT'S

A GOOD MESSAGE FROM A MOM.

YEAH, I THINK SO.

I MEAN, YOU'D MAKE

A-A GREAT DEFENSE ATTORNEY.

YOUR NAME ALONE:

WOULD INSPIRE:

A LOT OF HOPE:

IN YOUR CLIENTS.

OH, IS THAT WHAT YOU DO?

UH, YEAH, ATTORNEY, YES,

BUT, UH, DEFENSE, NO.

OH.

I MAINLY DO CORPORATE LAW--

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS.

BASICALLY, IF SOMEBODY

WANTS TO BUY SOMETHING

OR SELL SOMETHING

OR MERGE A COMPANY,

I'M THE GUY WHO MAKES SURE

THEY'RE DOING EVERYTHING

BY THE BOOKS.

OH.

OH, THAT-- THAT, UH...

THAT SOUNDS:

REALLY INTERESTING.

DOES IT?

[laughing] YES.

YOU DON'T REALLY THINK SO.

IT'S OKAY.

I'M SORRY.

I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE.

NO, NO, DON'T APOLOGIZE.

IT'S FINE.

IT'S, UM...

IT'S REFRESHING ACTUALLY.

I'M, UH-- I'M USED TO PEOPLE

TELLING ME WHAT I WANT TO HEAR,

OR WHAT THEY THINK

I WANT TO HEAR, ANYWAY.

YOUR HONESTY:

IS A NICE CHANGE OF PACE.

WELL, OKAY, IN THAT CASE,

THEN, UH...

YOUR JOB PRETTY MUCH SOUNDS

LIKE A CURE FOR INSOMNIA.

both:
[laughing]

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

I HOPE YOU'LL BE PATIEN JUST A LITTLE BIT LONGER.

WE ARE SO SORRY:

FOR THE INCONVENIENCE.

OUR VALETS ARE HAPPY

TO CARRY LUGGAGE

IF ANYONE WOULD CARE TO TAKE

THE STAIRS UP TO YOUR ROOMS.

FRANK?

SO DID YOU ALWAYS

WANT TO BE A LAWYER?

NO, ACTUALLY.

UM, GROWING UP, I WANTED

TO BE A RACE-CAR DRIVER.

[chuckles]

BUT, OF COURSE, THAT WASN' A VERY PRACTICAL GOAL

FOR THE MAN OF THE HOUSE,

SO I-I RECONSIDERED.

OH, YOU'RE MARRIED?

ME? NO.

OH, NO.

NO, WHEN I SAID

MAN OF THE HOUSE,

I MEAN WHEN I WAS A KID, UM...

OH, RIGHT.

MY FATHER PASSED AWAY

WHEN I WAS YOUNG,

AND MY MOTHER RAISED ME

BY HERSELF, SO...

OH, I'M SORRY.

WOW, THAT IS--

THAT'S A LOT OF RESPONSIBILITY

FOR A LITTLE KID.

I, UH...

SCHOOL WAS ALWAYS

REALLY EASY FOR ME,

AND WHEN I REALIZED

NOT ONLY COULD I GET THE JOBS

AND SCHOLARSHIPS I WANTED,

BUT THAT I HAD TO,

YOU KNOW,

TO HELP OUT MY MOTHER...

AND I'M SORRY.

I...

[laughs]

I NEVER TALK ABOUT MYSELF

LIKE THIS.

I'M RAMBLING.

NO.

NO, YOU'RE SHARING

ABOUT YOUR LIFE,

AND IT'S INTERESTING.

SO, UH, WHAT ABOUT YOU?

I WAS RAISED:

BY A SINGLE MOM TOO.

UM, MY PARENTS SPLIT UP

WHEN I WAS LITTLE.

I WASN'T THAT INTO SCHOOL,

THOUGH, NOT LIKE YOU.

I WAS MORE:

INTO THE EXTRACURRICULARS.

OH, SUCH AS?

WELL, I, UM...

I TOOK ALL KINDS OF DANCE.

I DID A SEMESTER

OF ULTIMATE FRISBEE.
