[Captain] Magic is what I am.
82
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,544
The reason that meditation
is so important in magic
83
00:04:54,627 --> 00:04:57,130
is because whatever we fasten
our attention on,
84
00:04:57,213 --> 00:04:59,257
that's the direction our energy
is going to flow in,
85
00:04:59,340 --> 00:05:00,717
so when you're doing magic,
86
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,262
you want to keep your mind
as single-pointedly focused
87
00:05:04,345 --> 00:05:06,806
on whatever you're trying
to accomplish as possible.
88
00:05:06,889 --> 00:05:07,932
[Clancy] Huh.
89
00:05:08,016 --> 00:05:09,809
So, that's what meditation does.
90
00:05:09,892 --> 00:05:13,146
It trains your mind, you know,
so it's not constantly scattered
91
00:05:13,229 --> 00:05:14,897
and going into all different directions
92
00:05:14,981 --> 00:05:16,983
and dispersing the energy
you're trying to build up.
93
00:05:17,066 --> 00:05:19,736

And it takes forever to sort of crack open
what he's even saying.
99
00:05:30,747 --> 00:05:33,624
You know, you've got to learn
so much other stuff
100
00:05:33,708 --> 00:05:37,420
before you can even begin to understand
what the hell he's actually talking about
101
00:05:37,503 --> 00:05:40,506

is written in a kind of code.
102
00:05:41,049 --> 00:05:45,261

[grunts]
104
00:05:48,765 --> 00:05:51,768
Yeah, I've noticed that
compared to some magical writings,
105
00:05:51,851 --> 00:05:54,062
some of the Eastern traditions
seem way more simple.
106
00:05:54,145 --> 00:05:55,438
Yeah, and the reason for that
107
00:05:55,521 --> 00:05:59,025
is because when you're talking about
Eastern traditions, Eastern paths,
108
00:05:59,108 --> 00:06:01,402
most of these practices are set up
109
00:06:01,486 --> 00:06:04,822
to lead you to this state
of what they call "enlightenment,"
110
00:06:04,906 --> 00:06:07,283
what in magic we'd call
"crossing the abyss."
111
00:06:07,367 --> 00:06:12,121
Eastern traditions are focused on doing
that over a period of several lifetimes.
112
00:06:12,205 --> 00:06:13,331
Hmm.
113
00:06:13,414 --> 00:06:17,126
Magic is like pouring jet fuel
on that process.
114
00:06:17,210 --> 00:06:20,046
It aims to accomplish it in one lifetime.
115
00:06:20,463 --> 00:06:23,633
So, what you're trying to do
is cram several lifetimes
116

and energetic experiences into one,
117

a little overwhelming sometimes.

-[Captain] Yes.
120
00:06:35,186 --> 00:06:38,523
It's... Tantra actually plays a huge role
in certain aspects
121
00:06:38,606 --> 00:06:41,901
or certain traditions of magic
like the OTO, you know,

128

Yes, it was the tradition that trained
the samurai in ancient Japan.
129
00:06:56,541 --> 00:06:59,794
When I was in prison, I had a zen master
that would come back and forth from Japan
130
00:06:59,877 --> 00:07:00,920
to the prison.
131
00:07:04,507 --> 00:07:07,552
And, you know, I sat
zazen meditation for years,
132
00:07:07,635 --> 00:07:13,266
and, honestly, I did not get as much
out of years of Eastern practices
133
00:07:13,349 --> 00:07:16,477
as I did months of ceremonial magic.
134
00:07:16,561 --> 00:07:18,354
And I think part of that... It's...
135
00:07:18,438 --> 00:07:21,232
They're both aiming at the same thing,
but whenever we,
136

who has no connection to, you know,

any Eastern tradition at all,
I had to learn that stuff from scratch.
139
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,162
So it was like learning
an entire different language.
140
00:07:34,245 --> 00:07:38,082
Whereas magic deals with
Western iconography, symbolism,
141
00:07:38,166 --> 00:07:41,085
things that we've grown up
having shoved into our psyche
142
00:07:41,169 --> 00:07:43,087
from the second we came into this world.
143
00:07:43,171 --> 00:07:46,674

some really deep, internal part,

00:08:58,788 --> 00:09:00,831
when I was in prison,
because even in there,
172
00:09:00,915 --> 00:09:04,919
in a hellish situation, I was doing what
I was put here to do, which was magic.
173
00:09:05,002 --> 00:09:07,964
That alleviates a lot of suffering.
174
00:09:08,047 --> 00:09:12,009
And if people jump ahead too far, you can
really blow your face off with this stuff,
175
00:09:12,093 --> 00:09:13,511
-so to speak, right?
-[alarm blaring]
176
00:09:13,594 --> 00:09:15,137
What are the roots of magic?
177
00:09:15,221 --> 00:09:20,059
You know, magic, ceremonial magic,
what we call high magic,
178
00:09:20,142 --> 00:09:25,773
um, originated in ancient Mesopotamia
somewhere around 3500 BC.
179
00:09:26,274 --> 00:09:28,943
So, it is uniquely Western.
180
00:09:29,402 --> 00:09:32,363
That's not entirely the West,
it's more the Middle East,
181
00:09:32,446 --> 00:09:34,115
because it originated
in a part of the world
182
00:09:34,198 --> 00:09:38,786
that would now be, you know,
present-day Iraq in a city called Nippur.
183
00:09:38,869 --> 00:09:41,914
What happened,
the way we got it in Europe was
184
00:09:41,998 --> 00:09:44,458
whenever the Knights Templar
were sent over there
185
00:09:44,542 --> 00:09:48,129
to escort pilgrims back and forth
from the Holy Land to make sure
186
00:09:48,212 --> 00:09:50,256
they're not attacked by bandits,
things like that.
187
00:09:50,756 --> 00:09:51,591
[cats meowing]
188
00:09:51,674 --> 00:09:54,093
-Your cats are really talented.
-[Captain] Well, thank you.
189
00:09:54,176 --> 00:09:56,679
The Knights Templar
come in contact with this current,
190
00:09:56,762 --> 00:09:59,140
and when I say "current,"
what I'm talking about...
191
00:09:59,223 --> 00:10:01,475
You know how in certain
Buddhist traditions...
192
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,769
-[Clancy] Yeah.
-[Captain] ...like, say, Tibetan Buddhism,
193
00:10:03,853 --> 00:10:04,812
they talk about...
194
00:10:04,895 --> 00:10:06,397
-What's the word? Empowerments.
-Sure.
195
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:07,565
[high-pitched horn blaring]
196
00:10:07,648 --> 00:10:11,902
You know, it's like a current of energy
passed along from master to student.
197
00:10:11,986 --> 00:10:14,614
Ceremonial magic
is the exact same thing.
198
00:10:15,364 --> 00:10:18,451
The Knights Templar started receiving
this current whenever they were there.
199
00:10:18,534 --> 00:10:20,161
That's how it makes its way
back to Europe.
200
00:10:20,244 --> 00:10:21,996
Eventually makes its way
to the United States
201
00:10:22,079 --> 00:10:24,457
through
the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn,
202
00:10:24,540 --> 00:10:26,917
which was the order
that Crowley was a member of
203
00:10:27,001 --> 00:10:29,003
before he, you know, went off to the OTO.
204
00:10:29,086 --> 00:10:32,882
You had MacGregor Mathers,
Dion Fortune, the poet WB Yeats.
205
00:10:32,965 --> 00:10:35,301
All of these people
were members of the Golden Dawn.
206
00:10:35,384 --> 00:10:37,803
That's how this current
makes its way to the US.
207
00:10:37,887 --> 00:10:38,721
One second.
208
00:10:40,723 --> 00:10:41,724
Hey, Steve!
209
00:10:42,433 --> 00:10:45,144
What the fuck? You need to shine
that light in my fucking eyes?
210
00:10:45,227 --> 00:10:47,146
If that's how you're gonna talk
to customers,
211
00:10:47,229 --> 00:10:50,941
I'll just take my ship full of cats
and find another junk island.
212
00:10:51,025 --> 00:10:53,486
A ship full of cats? Ah, shit!
213
00:10:53,569 --> 00:10:54,904
My apologies!
214
00:10:54,987 --> 00:10:57,782
Look at all these wonderful gifts
and gadgets here.
215
00:10:57,865 --> 00:11:01,869
We got a fresh printer,
time slapper, some cans...
216
00:11:01,952 --> 00:11:02,828
And, ooh...
217
00:11:04,372 --> 00:11:05,456
you want that?
218
00:11:05,539 --> 00:11:09,085
A vintage enlil? That ain't cheap, pal.
219
00:11:09,418 --> 00:11:11,295
It's gonna be... five cats.
220
00:11:11,379 --> 00:11:14,674
He's bluffing. I can get it for three.
Watch this.
221
00:11:14,757 --> 00:11:16,759
[cats meowing]
222
00:11:16,842 --> 00:11:18,552
-Three!
-Five!
223
00:11:18,636 --> 00:11:21,597
Fine, Steve.
Four, and that's my last offer.
224
00:11:22,348 --> 00:11:25,935
All right. You're taking flakes
outta my minnow's mouth, but fine.
225
00:11:26,268 --> 00:11:28,562
Four it is. Send them over.
226
00:11:29,021 --> 00:11:30,898
Um, I forgot what the hell
we were talking about.
227
00:11:30,981 --> 00:11:32,942
[Clancy]
We're talking about the transmission,
228
00:11:33,025 --> 00:11:35,861
what's also known as
the disciplic succession.
229
00:11:35,945 --> 00:11:37,780
[Captain] Yes. People think...
230
00:11:37,863 --> 00:11:39,907
Here's the thing that is so important
231
00:11:39,990 --> 00:11:43,160
that I want people to understand about
magic when I talk about it a lot of times.
232
00:11:43,244 --> 00:11:46,372
When we're talking about
something being an oral tradition,
233
00:11:46,455 --> 00:11:49,667
we sort of live under
this misunderstanding
234
00:11:49,750 --> 00:11:53,170
that that means it's just
a bunch of stories told, handed on.
235
00:11:53,254 --> 00:11:54,880
That's not what this means.
236
00:11:54,964 --> 00:11:58,884
What an oral tradition is,
it means the way this current of energy
237
00:11:58,968 --> 00:12:02,722
is passed from one person to another
is through the voice.
238
00:12:02,805 --> 00:12:04,640
-Our voice is sound waves.
-[Clancy] Yeah.
239
00:12:04,724 --> 00:12:07,101
[Captain] We're creating sound waves
which carry information.
240
00:12:07,184 --> 00:12:08,269
That's why, in the Bible...
241
00:12:08,352 --> 00:12:11,480
I always tell people the Bible is
the greatest book of magic ever written
242
00:12:11,564 --> 00:12:13,274
once you know how to read it.
243
00:12:13,607 --> 00:12:15,985
The whole thing
in the very first chapter of the Bible,
244
00:12:16,068 --> 00:12:19,655
they're talking about, in the beginning
was the Word, and the Word was God.
245
00:12:19,739 --> 00:12:21,782
That's because this is an oral tradition.
246
00:12:21,866 --> 00:12:24,577
-It's-- Does that make sense?
-[laughing] You're blowing my mind!
247
00:12:24,660 --> 00:12:26,829
-[Captain laughing]
-[ship horn blaring]
248
00:12:26,912 --> 00:12:30,875
So that goes all the way back
to, um, ancient Mesopotamia...
249
00:12:31,250 --> 00:12:32,960
-I forgot--
-[Clancy] Maybe further back.
250
00:12:33,461 --> 00:12:36,046
Is it the words that have the energy,
251
00:12:36,130 --> 00:12:40,468
or is it the energy coming out
of the person saying the words?
252
00:12:40,551 --> 00:12:41,844
[Captain] Combination of both.
253
00:12:41,927 --> 00:12:46,265
For example, you can only pass the current
if you've received the current.
254
00:12:46,348 --> 00:12:47,975
Like, you could say
the exact same words...
255
00:12:48,058 --> 00:12:48,934
[meowing]
256
00:12:49,018 --> 00:12:51,520
...that a person
who's holding the current would say,
257
00:12:51,604 --> 00:12:54,231
and if you're not holding the current,
it's not going to transmit.
258
00:12:55,024 --> 00:12:58,277
You have to be holding the current
and have the right words.
259
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,363
-[horn playing]
-[cats meowing]
260
00:13:05,993 --> 00:13:09,163
[machine whirring]
261
00:13:09,246 --> 00:13:11,457
[Captain] There's two reasons to do magic.
262
00:13:11,540 --> 00:13:13,250
One is for manifesting something,
263
00:13:13,334 --> 00:13:17,505
and that can be anything from
a parking spot to the career you want
264
00:13:17,588 --> 00:13:19,924
to the relationship you want to be in,
whatever it is.
265
00:13:21,008 --> 00:13:24,178
The other reason for doing magic
is what I call spiritual sustenance,
266
00:13:24,261 --> 00:13:29,892
where you are deliberately invoking energy
and intelligences that you then absorb
267
00:13:29,975 --> 00:13:34,230
into your energy system,
into your aura, to make you grow,
268
00:13:34,313 --> 00:13:36,732
-make you change.
-That cat just sloshed me!
269
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:38,901
That's the mama cat.
She's a prankster.
270
00:13:40,444 --> 00:13:43,072
-[meowing]
-[both chuckling]
271
00:13:43,155 --> 00:13:45,074
There's two ways
that magic is passed on.
272
00:13:45,157 --> 00:13:49,787
One is through a lodge or order setting,
you know, like the Golden Dawn.
273
00:13:49,870 --> 00:13:53,457
That's more like a curriculum-type thing,
like a school, you know.
274
00:13:53,541 --> 00:13:56,168
Everybody's learning the same thing
at the same rate.
275
00:13:56,544 --> 00:13:59,922
The other way is, like,
master to student, and that allows for...
276
00:14:00,256 --> 00:14:02,967
Thank you.
...things that are a little more profound,
277
00:14:03,050 --> 00:14:06,136
just because you're not learning
the same thing as everyone else.
278
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,890
Blessed be thy feet,
that they may walk this path.
279
00:14:09,974 --> 00:14:12,434
If it's someone who knows
what they're doing, they can judge
280
00:14:12,518 --> 00:14:13,561
where you're at.
281
00:14:13,644 --> 00:14:16,480
Mentally where you're at,
emotionally where you're at, spiritually,
282
00:14:16,564 --> 00:14:20,442
and figure out what it is that you need
to sort of set off these bombs...
283
00:14:20,526 --> 00:14:21,610
-[both grunt]
-Whoa!
284
00:14:21,694 --> 00:14:23,445
...that cause epiphanies and realizations
285
00:14:23,529 --> 00:14:24,989
-and things like that.
-[Clancy] Yeah.
286
00:14:25,072 --> 00:14:26,115
[meowing]
287
00:14:31,787 --> 00:14:32,788
[electricity humming]
288
00:14:35,165 --> 00:14:36,959
[Clancy] Yeah!
289
00:14:37,042 --> 00:14:39,628
Woo-hoo-hoo!
290
00:14:40,087 --> 00:14:42,715
-[motorcycle approaching]
-[Captain] Most people spend their lives
291
00:14:42,798 --> 00:14:45,217
-complaining about things they don't like.
-[Clancy] Yes.
292
00:14:45,759 --> 00:14:48,262
So, you're adding power to it.
You're giving it chi.
293
00:14:48,345 --> 00:14:52,016
We're supposed to focus on what it is
that we're wanting to move towards
294
00:14:52,099 --> 00:14:53,225
instead of away from.
295
00:14:53,309 --> 00:14:56,103
You don't have to lie
when something is bad.
296
00:14:56,186 --> 00:14:58,647
You know, if you have a cold
and someone says, "Are you sick?"
297
00:14:59,148 --> 00:15:00,774
that doesn't mean say, "No."
298
00:15:00,858 --> 00:15:03,777
It means say,
"I'm getting better minute by minute."
299
00:15:03,861 --> 00:15:04,862
Oh, that's great.
300
00:15:04,945 --> 00:15:10,075
Do you think that the reason
you ended up in prison is because,
301
00:15:10,159 --> 00:15:12,912
this sounds so weird,
good karma?
302
00:15:12,995 --> 00:15:14,914
Yes. I absolute--
303
00:15:14,997 --> 00:15:19,376
This will sound crazy to people,
but I absolutely do.
304
00:15:19,460 --> 00:15:24,465
I am thankful now
for the time that I spent in prison.
305
00:15:24,548 --> 00:15:27,551
Even for some of the most horrible things
that happened to me.
306
00:15:27,635 --> 00:15:31,764
Say, for example, when I was beaten so bad
that I was in a lot of physical pain,
307
00:15:31,847 --> 00:15:34,934
if I would have been out here,
I could've just went to a doctor.
308
00:15:35,017 --> 00:15:36,810
I didn't have that option in there.
309
00:15:36,894 --> 00:15:40,564
I had to find ways to help me cope
310
00:15:40,648 --> 00:15:44,360
with not only the emotional
and mental anguish I was going through,
311
00:15:44,443 --> 00:15:47,196
but also the physical anguish,
the physical pain.
312
00:15:48,364 --> 00:15:54,328
So that pushed me constantly
to keep exploring what was possible
313
00:15:54,411 --> 00:15:55,496
with these practices.
314
00:15:55,579 --> 00:15:57,206
By the time that I got out of prison,
315
00:15:57,623 --> 00:15:59,667
I didn't even feel like
I was in prison anymore.
316
00:15:59,750 --> 00:16:02,544
My cell almost felt like
a control tower...
317
00:16:03,796 --> 00:16:06,340
where I could reach out
and touch anything in the world.
318
00:16:06,423 --> 00:16:07,716
[engine revs]
319
00:16:10,052 --> 00:16:14,807
I look at people out here now
who think that I had a horrible life.
320
00:16:15,265 --> 00:16:16,100
[Clancy] Ah...
321
00:16:16,183 --> 00:16:19,019
And don't get me wrong, there were
some pretty unpleasant aspects of it.
322
00:16:19,103 --> 00:16:20,896
-Can we go--
-You know, whether it was beating
323
00:16:20,980 --> 00:16:22,147
-or starvation...
-Forget it.
324
00:16:22,231 --> 00:16:24,608
...or just living in fear sometimes
325
00:16:24,692 --> 00:16:26,819
that these people
are gonna kill you at any minute.
326
00:16:27,194 --> 00:16:31,991
Whatever it is, still,
I think I had a better life
327
00:16:32,074 --> 00:16:36,578
than most of, like, the millennials I see
sort of flailing around out there now,
328
00:16:36,662 --> 00:16:40,499
trying to figure out who they are
and what they're gonna do with--
329
00:16:40,582 --> 00:16:42,376
-I never had to experience that.
-Right.
330
00:16:42,459 --> 00:16:43,877
-[horse belches]
-You puke ice cream?
331
00:16:43,961 --> 00:16:45,170
[chattering indistinctly]
332
00:16:45,254 --> 00:16:46,880
I always knew what I was.
333
00:16:46,964 --> 00:16:48,757
I always knew
what I was supposed to be doing.
334
00:16:48,841 --> 00:16:50,968
[engine revs]
335
00:16:51,051 --> 00:16:53,262
[Clancy hooting]
336
00:16:53,345 --> 00:16:55,139
[Captain] And I kinda embraced that.
337
00:16:57,182 --> 00:16:58,434
[Clancy] Yeah!
338
00:17:02,312 --> 00:17:03,772
[squawking]
339
00:17:03,856 --> 00:17:05,232
-[birds squealing]
-[man grunts]
340
00:17:05,315 --> 00:17:08,193
When you say "control tower"
and "reaching out,"
341
00:17:08,277 --> 00:17:12,322
do you mean that you were doing
some form of astral projection
342
00:17:12,406 --> 00:17:15,034
-or some kind of--
-That is part of magic,
343
00:17:15,117 --> 00:17:18,787
and I don't like that word, actually,
but I don't know another word to use,
344
00:17:18,871 --> 00:17:20,247
-astral projection...
-Ow!
345
00:17:20,330 --> 00:17:22,958
...just because
it sounds so kind of flaky and New Agey.
346
00:17:23,042 --> 00:17:24,960
In our society,
not just our society in the West,
347
00:17:25,044 --> 00:17:28,005
but also in the East, we've sorta
arrived at this conclusion somehow...
348
00:17:28,088 --> 00:17:29,590
[rocks grunting]
349
00:17:29,673 --> 00:17:33,469
Spirituality has become so watered down
that we think enlightenment
350
00:17:33,552 --> 00:17:35,721
is the be-all and the end-all
of spiritual practice.
351
00:17:35,804 --> 00:17:38,515
-[rocks continue grunting]
-It's the finish line. It's not.
352
00:17:38,724 --> 00:17:40,100
-[rocks grunting]
-[gasps]
353
00:17:40,184 --> 00:17:43,062
There are actually things
that come after that.
354
00:17:43,145 --> 00:17:47,483
What we think of as enlightenment
is the first step in a process.
355
00:17:47,566 --> 00:17:49,777
In magic, what they call in the East
"enlightenment,"
356
00:17:49,860 --> 00:17:51,445
we call "solar consciousness."
357
00:17:51,528 --> 00:17:53,280
Solar consciousness means
358
00:17:53,363 --> 00:17:56,867
that you are completely and absolutely
in the present moment,
359
00:17:56,950 --> 00:17:59,328
just like
whenever you achieve enlightenment.
360
00:17:59,411 --> 00:18:01,580
After you develop solar consciousness,
361
00:18:01,663 --> 00:18:03,332
the next step in this process
362
00:18:03,415 --> 00:18:05,751
is developing what we call
the "solar body."
363
00:18:06,460 --> 00:18:10,172
You are building a vehicle
to allow your consciousness
364
00:18:10,255 --> 00:18:14,718
to not disintegrate at the point
of what we call the Second Death.
365
00:18:14,802 --> 00:18:17,012
The First Death
is when the physical body dies.
366
00:18:17,096 --> 00:18:20,224
The Second Death is whenever
your astral or etheric body
367
00:18:20,307 --> 00:18:21,767
begins to unravel.
368
00:18:21,850 --> 00:18:25,771
That's whenever your consciousness goes
through this cosmic washing machine...
369
00:18:25,854 --> 00:18:27,815
-[snoring]
-...every aspect of personality
370
00:18:27,898 --> 00:18:28,941
is washed out of it,
371
00:18:29,024 --> 00:18:30,901
you're left with a kernel
of pure energy,
372
00:18:30,984 --> 00:18:33,278
which is then recycled
into something else.
373
00:18:33,362 --> 00:18:35,823
If you develop the solar body,
that doesn't happen.
374
00:18:35,906 --> 00:18:39,034
You put your consciousness
into the solar body
375
00:18:39,118 --> 00:18:40,369
at the moment of death.
376
00:18:40,452 --> 00:18:42,037
You then become...
377
00:18:42,121 --> 00:18:44,248
not entirely, not exactly the same...
378
00:18:44,331 --> 00:18:45,958
-Yeah.
-...but your consciousness
379
00:18:46,041 --> 00:18:48,585
is then completely unbroken for eternity.
380
00:18:49,002 --> 00:18:50,379
From that point on,
381
00:18:50,462 --> 00:18:54,299
you can come into the physical realm
when, where, and how you choose,
382
00:18:54,383 --> 00:18:55,801
if you choose to do so.
383
00:18:56,135 --> 00:19:00,013
The point is to help other people
complete this process.
384
00:19:00,389 --> 00:19:03,517
You know, Beethoven said
that the point of being alive,
385
00:19:04,017 --> 00:19:05,853
the point of being human,
386
00:19:05,936 --> 00:19:09,189
is to approach divinity
as closely as you possibly can
387
00:19:10,399 --> 00:19:13,110
and then disseminate those rays
out to mankind.
388
00:19:13,193 --> 00:19:14,778
-Oh--
-[Captain] Hold that thought.
389
00:19:17,698 --> 00:19:20,284
[murmurs] May the light protect him.
390
00:19:23,704 --> 00:19:26,081
Why... ay-ay-ay-ay!
391
00:19:31,128 --> 00:19:33,297
[tones chiming]
392
00:19:51,690 --> 00:19:54,443
[whooshing]
393

[belching]
394
00:20:42,532 --> 00:20:43,367
What?
395
00:20:43,825 --> 00:20:46,370
Behold the death of the old eon...
396
00:20:46,453 --> 00:20:49,039
[echoing] ...and the birth of the new.
397
00:20:51,708 --> 00:20:53,669
What the fuck, Darryl? I was asleep!
398
00:20:53,752 --> 00:20:56,171
Well, it was time to wake up
to the truth, Barry!
399
00:20:56,255 --> 00:20:57,256
[grunts]
400
00:20:57,756 --> 00:21:00,384
Oh, so ruining my marriage
wasn't enough, huh?
401
00:21:00,467 --> 00:21:03,095
[Darryl] You ruined your own
fucking marriage, Barry.
402
00:21:03,178 --> 00:21:05,973
I just want to hear you say it.
Say you fucked my wife!
403
00:21:06,056 --> 00:21:07,349
[Darryl] You never woke up!
404
00:21:11,019 --> 00:21:12,229
[Steve] Oh, shit.
405
00:21:13,897 --> 00:21:16,066
[Barry, muffled]
I was sleeping, you bastard!
406
00:21:16,525 --> 00:21:17,609
[screaming]
407
00:21:17,693 --> 00:21:20,028
[Darryl] You were asleep.
You never woke the fuck up!
408
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:22,072
[Barry] I'm gonna fuck you up for that.
409
00:21:22,155 --> 00:21:24,116
[Darryl] You were napping,
bringing rocks to life
410
00:21:24,199 --> 00:21:26,285
-like some kind of dick.
-[Clancy screaming]
411
00:21:26,368 --> 00:21:29,037
-[Darryl] I looked out for her!
-[Barry] That's what this is about?
412
00:21:29,121 --> 00:21:32,624
[Darryl] You were the one going to Lad's,
getting lap dances at Lad's all the time.
413
00:21:32,708 --> 00:21:34,751
-[Barry] I had a platinum membership!
-[Clancy] Guys!
414
00:21:34,835 --> 00:21:37,337
[Barry] You don't just get those.
That took years to earn!
415
00:21:37,421 --> 00:21:39,798
-[Darryl] Fucking fight and shut up!
-[Clancy] Guys!
416
00:21:39,881 --> 00:21:42,884
[Barry] Now I'm the one
who's supposed to shut the fuck up.
417
00:21:42,968 --> 00:21:44,511
[Darryl] You didn't even try to--
418
00:21:44,594 --> 00:21:46,221
[lively organ music playing]
419
00:21:50,851 --> 00:21:52,477
Classic...
420
00:21:52,561 --> 00:21:57,316
[muffled]
You have seen destiny is on my side!
421
00:21:57,399 --> 00:22:01,361
Sometimes saying revealing
and honest things--
422
00:22:04,990 --> 00:22:07,326
But it makes me a beautiful person.

Aw, thanks, Clancy. This is sick, man.
Look at this swag grab.

Hell, yeah, I got some stickers, pens...
Wait a second, there's two shirts here?
