CCoach

[about the "Granny shot" being more effective than the overhead shot] But there's something about that shot... it... it just doesn't look right.

Well Coach, that's the whole point of this thing. I mean, if we're gonna end CalSci's 15 year losing streak, we gotta find the best shot, not the shot that looks right.

S5 E20The Fifth Man

My first day at CalSci, I stood in this office, and Biederman sat right there and he gave me the onceover and asked: "Are you the Boygenius that everybody says you are?"

And now Biederman is retired and you are the man... oh, pardon me... the Mangenuis!

Dang. Nice digs. (chuckling) Well, I don't understand. Dad said it was like a disaster, like my room when I was 15.

He was right, by the way. Um, no, Amita came by today and did all this. It's nice of her.

You've definitely arrived, kid.

Yeah. I've arrived. Don't know how long I'm set to stay.

What are you talking about? You've been working for this your whole life.

Yeah. My destiny. What if my future has changed, you know? What if it's not being an academic?

What, you mean the FBI stuff? You don't seem to have a problem doing both.

It's become increasingly difficult for me to be here in this bubble lecturing about set theory, knowing that there are real lives at risk, that there are real lives being lost out there.

You know, Charlie, I've seen a lot of good agents burn out. You know, guys that just don't want to go home because they're afraid they'll miss something. What is...

Just live a little.

I don't know.

Yeah, well, I do.

Hey. Am I interrupting something?

No, I was just, uh, heading out, actually.

Good. 'Cause I need Charlie.

All right. Congratulations. Uh, this is nicer than my apartment. See you later.
