look after things while I'm gone.

Well, you were talking

about your design company

that you used to own.

I mean, maybe he could help you out.

I'm sorry. You said what?

Oh, right, earlier. Yeah, we were talk...

I was telling Rachel about, um,

my, uh, uh, design company.

I ran a company, and sold it years ago.

Really? I find this fascinating.

- I'm fascinated.

- What kinda work did you guys do?

Uh, i-it was the same kinda thing.

Design, branding, uh,

interactive campaigning.

- Yeah.

- Wow! That's great.

We don't-we don't have

to talk shop, by the way,

if you don't want to because...

I don't mind. I don't mind.

Fantastic. This Paris

thing, it just popped up,

and I've been worried that I wasn't

gonna find someone to cover for me.

Is that something that

you'd be interested in, or...

Um, I'm certainly not on the cutting edge,

like I used to be, um,

but I'm always curious to

see what the kids are up to.

Look, I don't wanna

monopolize the conversation.

No, no, it's fine. It's...

Uh, but why don't you come by on Monday,

and we can-we can, uh, talk there?

Uh, great, yeah. Let's do it, Monday.

Great.

Great.

Great.

Great.

- Hey.

- Oh, thank you.

Yeah.

So, I guess I might have to

put my spiritual quest on hold,

in order to help out your husband.

Yeah, I'm sorry. I

shouldn't have said anything.

- I don't know why I did.

- It's fine. I'm kidding.

It's totally fine. I probably

deserve it for earlier.

Yeah.

Do you need help here?

There's a lotta dishes.

No, no, I got it. I'm good. Thank you.

You know, I can't believe

it's taken so long,

but they're finally bringing competitive

dish curling into the Olympics.

- You should look into it.

- Oh, you should see me carry garbage.

Oh, please, garbage is one

of my greatest weaknesses.

- Oh, really?

- Yes.

You must have to go to

the gym to do all this.

- It takes endurance.

- No, just yoga sometimes.

- Yoga? Oh, cool, cool.

- Yeah.

I'm-I'm totally into yoga.

- Really?

- Yeah, I love it.

What kind?

What kind? Oh, well, of

course, there's multiple kinds.

I, uh, I love it...

Uh, you know, the... It's weight.

Weight yoga?

- Yeah.

- Oh, okay.

Uh, for weight loss?

Uh, well, no, I mean, it's-it's yoga,

but it's weight-it's weight lifting.

It's mostly for men,

so you might not have...

But, lifting weights makes

your muscles more stiff...

- right?

- Yes, no, it...

- Yes, exact... You're right.

- Yeah.

You're absolutely right.

You get stiff, and then

you need to do more yoga.

- It's sort of a capitalist approach to the whole thing.

- Okay.

You just keep-keep going to class.

Well, you should-you should try Rama yoga.

The teachers are-are really great.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- That's where you go?

- Yeah.

The Monday night class is awesome.

Monday nights?

That's when I have, um,

my Gangnam yoga class,

but maybe I can move somethin' around.

- There's no weights, though.

- No weights?

- More traditional.

- More traditional?

- If you can handle it.

- More-more like yoga, you're saying.

- More like yoga. Actual yoga, yeah.

- More like real... Yeah, yeah.

Okay, yeah, maybe I'll check it out.

It sounds like fun.

So, you now run a successful company?

- Uh-huh.

- What the hell is that?

I'm projecting a successful image.

Thank you very much.

All right, I appreciate the effort.

Not necessarily experimenting

on my family, but...

Oh, come on. Have a-have a little faith.

I won't ruin the company.

It's only a couple weeks.

Just answer phone calls,

shirk responsibility.

And, by the way, I-I think you owe me,

having tricked me into going

there in the first place.

That's fair. That's true.

Seems like you had a blast.

It's just too bad you spent

all the time talking to Rachel.

Yeah, I was having a much

better time talking to, uh,

auntie what's-her-face

and uncle scoliosis.

Scoliosis, yeah. Nicest guy.

- Oh!

- Jesus, mom!

- God.

- Don't be so dramatic.

I didn't even know you could still do that,

whatever that is.

Well, we're not dead yet.

Yeah, too bad!

I can still hear you!

Uh, excuse me.

I'm looking for Eric Stone's office.

Thank you.

There's nothing I can

do to make this better.

I got it fair and square, all right?

Yeah, well, if he'd wanted to offer more,

then he should've offered more.

If you have a real issue with it, y...

No, I didn't say, "See me in court."

We're do-we're done

with this conversation.

Yeah, bye, Mom.

Um, okay.

Uh, basically...

things are running pretty smoothly here.

I just-I don't-I don't

need my team tempted

- while I'm gone.

- Yeah.

Don't get me wrong.

They're-they're hard workers.

- I just want it to stay that way.

- Yeah.

It's pretty simple. I'm

looking for a babysitter.

Oh, yeah. No-no-no,

I-I know the drill.

You know, been there. Paid for that.

Yeah.

So, um, Kevin tells Rachel

that you guys are pretty close?

Oh, yeah, ver-very close.

He had some nice things to say about you.

Yeah? Hey, well, if

they're nice, they're true.

So, why'd you sell your company, Gilby?

The question.

Uh, good-good question.

Um, seriously, it, uh, it was time.

Yeah, okay, good. So, look, I'm

always looking for good people.

Especially people I'm told I can trust.

Oh, well, absolutely.

Why don't we give this

a shot, see how it goes.

Yeah, you got it, boss, yeah.

All right, let me

introduce you to the team.

Brad's an a**hole, but

the rest are pretty good.

Guys, everyone, listen

up. This is Gilby Smalls.

He's gonna be overseeing

things for me while I'm gone.

I thought you said that I was

gonna look after the group.

Well, Brad, you really

need to focus on your work.

And don't interrupt when

I'm talking to the group.

You guys won't even know I'm here.

Just don't make any mistakes.

Gilby used to run his own media company,

so don't be afraid to

ask him anything, really.

Uh, what was the name of that company?

Imagine, Inc.

Imagine, Inc. is not a media company.

Brad.

Imagining, Inc.

Imagining.

Imagining, uh, Design, to be exact.

Technically, The Imagining Design Company.

Yeah, the old IDC, she was somethin'.

Great. So, even though

I'm not here, I'm here.

All right?

Let me show you the game room.

Come on.

Game? Game?

We have a game room?

Is this yoga?

Hi. Shh.

Hi.

Hey.

Take off your shoes.

Oh, my God. Sorry. Sorry.

Sorry.

Hi.

- Oh.

- First time?

No, I've yoga'd before.

I was yoga'ing yesterday.

Okay.

Well, um, here you go.

- I don't need a belt.

- It's okay.

Go ahead.

Try to use this disruption

in your meditation.

Watch your thoughts and

see what comes up for you.

Very nice.

Remember to breathe.

Beautiful job.

Nice.

Hey, hey-hey-hey,

don't force it.

- It's not a competition.

- Yeah.

Why don't you just rest in Child's Pose?

No, thank you. I... Thank you.

I appreciate it, but I can do this.

Well, at least use the wall for support.

I got it, okay?

Child's Pose.

I got it.

Oh, God, are you okay?

Ow!

I got it.

I got it.
