But I just wanna say

that Americans have no idea

how much people hate them

all over the world.

It's pretty

clear to us now, Angie.

And all my relatives

in Syria think what

we did in Afghanistan

was terrorism, okay?

Anthony?

Not to mention Iraq.

Syria is a theocratic

military dictatorship.

No, it's not. Sorry.

Syria is not a theocratic

military dictatorship?

I think we have

a pretty good idea how

much people hate us now,

actually, Angie.

No, we don't.

They blew up our city, okay? So, yeah,

I think we have a pretty good idea

and personally,

I don't give a sh*t.

You should.

The people who blew

up the World Trade

Center were a bunch

of sick monsters.

Oh, they were monsters?

Yes!

Why, because they're Arabs?

No, because they killed

Maybe they think

they had a reason!

One at a time!

Like what?

Why did we

drop bombs on them?

What should

we have done?

Why did we invade Iraq

They declared war on us.

No, they didn't. Iraq

didn't declare war on anybody!

They didn't do

anything to us!

Come on,

guys, one at a time!

Anthony.

They did have a reason.

Thank you.

They wanted to

establish a medieval

Islamic caliphate

in the Middle East

and destroy

Western civilization.

Where did you read that?

It's on their website.

Okay, forget it.

Angie!

No! Forget it!

Go ahead with

what you were saying!

No! Why should I?

But why are you defending someone

who murdered 3,000 people?

I'm not!

Why are you

defending a country that

unilaterally invaded

two Muslim countries

and supports the Israeli

occupation of Palestine?

Give me a break!

And drops bombs on

women and children

and then calls

other people terrorists

for doing

the exact same thing?

Because it's not the same thing!

Yes, it is!

- Come on, guys.

- Lionel! Go ahead.

Yeah, I just want to ask why is

it okay to drop bombs on men

but it's not okay to drop

bombs on women and children?

I mean, isn't that

just like reverse sexism?

I don't know. I agree

it's a bullshit term.

This is totally stupid.

Monica!

I think the whole class should

apologize to Angie, actually,

'cause all she did

was express her opinion

about what her

relatives in Syria think.

Thank you! And everyone

started screaming at her

like she was

defending the Ku Klux Klan!

They are the Ku Klux Klan! They

throw acid in womans faces.

Who? Afghanistan? Why not drop

bombs on the Ku Klux Klan!

Because they're white?

Six people raised their hands

before you, Lisa.

MR. Come on, guys.

The correct term is Afghans.

Okay, I'm not even saying

I disagree with you.

I'm just saying it's pathetic the way

people in this class treated Angie

just for saying something they

didn't happen to agree with.

Because that's

censorship. Right?

Right?

It's not censorship!

Right on! This class

is not the government.

It's censorship. Oh,

my God, no, it's not!

We work out of Highway One

out in the Bronx.

Near the Bronx Zoo.

Oh, okay.

But for a situation...

Hey, how are you doin'?

But for something' like this,

we usually find a local

precinct or an apartment.

Whatever will expediate the

situation most effectively.

Have a seat wherever you want.

Just pull up a chair.

According to this statement,

the light was green

when the bus passed

through the intersection.

Yes.

So you're saying she walked

against the light?

Yeah.

It's true.

Two years of college,

two years at the magazine.

Two years with you.

I'm kind of

a two-year gal!

What's funny

about that?

What did you

think of the play?

It was okay.

- Hello?

- Hi, Dad!

Yeah! Hi!

How are you?

I'm okay. I'm fine.

I'm just sitting here, looking at the

ocean, trying' to do a little work,

listening to some music.

How are you?

I'm okay.

Are you practicing

your horseback riding?

Oh, yeah, I've

really been riding a lot.

I'm getting' these

really bad saddle sores.

Are you?

No,

I'm kidding.

Yeah. Do you know

Claremont Stables on 89th

between Columbus and Amsterdam?

Yeah.

Well, it might be

really worth your while

to go over there and maybe sign

up for a couple of lessons.

No...

I'd be happy to...

I'm sorry, what?

I was just saying I'd be

very happy to spring for it

if you want to take

a couple of lessons.

I think it would

pay off in the end.

Thanks. I actually

may take you up on that.

Yeah, just let me know.

I appreciate that.

So, how's school?

School's okay. I'm kind of

f***ing up in geometry.

But I assume

you're not torpedoing

your scholarship or

anything like that?

Nope. The scholarship's on.

Okay, good.

Well, math was never my

strong suit either, so...

I guess I'm following in your

footsteps in that regard.

Well, I'm proud

to hear it.

So, how are you?

Um... I'm okay. Things are okay.

They're a little slow

and a little frustrating.

But there's one or

two projects we're

going after that

seem to look promising.

And I don't know,

I think it's okay.

Okay.

How's the boyfriend situation?

Oh. The same.

Nobody...

They're all kind

of the same.

Well, I know this is not

going to go anywhere,

but our next workshop is

comprised, for the most part,

of strapping young men of

about 17 years old who,

for some peculiar reason, are

interested in using their brains

to get on with their lives.

Nobody really understands

why or how this happened,

but if you're

interested in meeting any

of them when you

come out next time...

Yeah, I don't really go for the

California type, but thanks.

Well, I don't either, per se. It

depends on the person, obviously.

Hard to argue with. I think

I'll stop generalizing now.

Well, that's about

it on my end, sweetie.

I'll give you

a call in a week or two.

Give my love to Curtis.

Okay. Well...

I love you.

I love you, too. Bye.

You do know I

have two kids, right?

Yes. I would like

to meet them.

You are really smooth.

I would love to

meet your kids.

I have two boys myself.

I'm not smooth.

Would you like to

have a nightcap?

I just...

I feel like we used to

be really close, like,

up until a few days ago,

and I'm really not getting

that from you anymore.

Becky, give me a break.

Now you wanna do

the other nostril

because you always want to be symmetrical.

Very important.

You are so funny.

symmetry

So, what do

we do now?

Now we make out.

Paul! What about

your girlfriend?

I'm sorry.

It just sounded like

you asked me

about my girlfriend.

Oh, never mind.

I don't know, man.

I don't wanna get into it.

You know I really

love you, right?

Not really.

I gotta go home.

I'm just gonna

head out, too.

You need a little help,

I take it?

Joan, are

you all right?

Yes, fine.

I'll be out in a sec.

Okay, we're gonna start with

a few simple stretches.

I want you all to watch me

first, and then you'll follow.

All right,

so left arm goes up.

And then all

the way over to the side,

you're gonna

feel a long stretch

along the side of your body.

All right.

Mr. Aaron?

Yes, Becky... Lisa?
