Did you ever have parents?

I mean... I know you have parents,

but I mean...

Where's your mom?

She died when I was 6,

and I never met my father.

You never met your father?

Now you work for...

...a man you've never seen.

That's an interesting trend.

That was smooth.

Want to play Scrabble?

Don't worry about it.

I got somebody...

That's okay.

What are they called? You know...

So, okay.

- This is a panic button.

- Okay.

If you just press it,

then any one of us...

...whoever's closest, will be here

if there's any problem.

Like that? Okay.

Right now, that would be you.

But you don't have a problem.

Yeah, I do.

I don't know...

...how to make chicken.

Scrabble?

Shake 'N Bake?

I'll shake, you bake?

I want to shake.

- Hey, Pete.

- How's it going?

- Good. How are you?

- Good. It's good to see you.

- You want your ticket?

- All right!

- Thanks for giving me a chance.

- I wanted to see you.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- You look great.

- Thank you.

I've thought a lot about us.

No, no, no.

I know you have something to say...

...but I have something to say too.

I've been thinking a lot about you

and me and, well, us.

And I know that we have these crazy

lives, but I can't help it.

I love you.

Searching Red Starmainframe

for Knox Technologies software.

Software not detected.

Coming.

Hello.

Trick or treat for UNICEF.

That's a very nice costume,

young lady.

It glows in the dark.

I hope you like to dance.

Are you kidding? I love to dance!

You. You want to dance on-stage?

Us?

Yes!

No, the stage is for the ladies.

Oh, never mind. I'll just find

a spot on the floor.

No, no, wait.

This is Soul Train's highest honor.

I won't let you not go up there.

Yeah, she'll go.

Really? I've always wanted

to go up there!

Have a great time.

Okay. I'll be back.

Ms. Wood, there are some lines

that I never cross.

Lines have never stopped me.

It's "Miss. " And it's "Vivian. "

Okay. Miss Vivian.

Okay, Miss Vivian. You're a pro.

I mean, you're not a pro,

but you're an executive.

We must keep our relationship

professional.

May I?

I'll get you a glass.

She's pretty great, isn't she?

I said, she's pretty great, right?

You guys are in really good shape.

Definitely. Definitely.

All right. The Robot!

Go, white girl!

Go, white girl!

That's old school, right? Definitely.

I'm Pete. How are you?

The Running Man! Look!

Incredible! It was great!

I'm having so much fun!

This is so exciting!

You know, I have to go number one.

Look...

...what I'm trying to say is...

...will you marry me?

Oh, no, baby! Baby?!

Baby?! God, no.

Damn you, Salazar.

Damn you, Salazar!

Cut!

Was that over the top?

It felt over the top.
