[waves breaking]
[boat honks]
[tense music playing]
How in the hell
could I be Chandler Groff's son?
[spluttering] That doesn't
literally makes no sense
'cause Larissa's baby, everyone knows
that baby drowned with her, Dad.
That baby
that baby was you, JJ.
[music intensifies, fades]
- [baby cooing]
- [birds chirping]
[Luke] I was working the grounds
for the Genrettes.
[cheerful music playing]
I got to know Larissa.
- She was a good person.
- [Larissa] Yeah.
[baby cooing]
- [Luke] How's the little champ doing?
- [Larissa] He's a little restless today.
- Here. I brought you something.
- Oh. See the daisy.
I think he likes it.
Oh, he loves it.
[both chuckling]
He says, "It's mine now."
Look who brought that for you.
- [door closes]
- Isn't that so nice?
[menacing music playing]
Hey, Luke.
- Working hard, I see.
- [Luke spluttering] Yes, sir.
Yeah. Yeah.
[Larissa] Bye.
Got him out here? In this heat?
[baby cooing]
Get him inside.
Okay.
Come here, baby.
- [Groff] You never
- [Larissa] You don't help me.
I got the beds.
I got us the hotel, the place.
None of it was good enough.
Why don't we just stay here?
Can you please lower your voice?
- [Groff] Lower my voice? Why? It's a baby.
- [Larissa] Yes.
[baby crying]
[Luke] I could tell
things weren't right between them.
[Groff] All right, buddy. All right.
[baby crying continues]
[Luke] I just wanted to help.
Hey, hey. It's okay. It's okay.
[crying] I can't make him stop.
[Luke] Hi.
There you go.
There you go, champ.
It'll be all right. There you go.
[baby stops crying]
There you go, champ.
There you go.
[Larissa] You really are so good
with Jackson.
[sniffles, sobs]
[baby cooing]
You're the only person I have to talk to.
Now, you know that ain't true,
Miss Genrette.
[sniffles]
[spluttering] Stay.
I want you to.
- [Larissa sobbing]
- [gentle music playing]
[thunder rumbling]
[Jackson coos]
[Larissa sobbing, sniffling]
I really don't know
what I would do without you.
- [intriguing music playing]
- [Larissa sniffles]
[Luke] Honestly, I thought
Groff had it out for me.
Then late one night,
he paid me an unexpected visit.
- [door closes]
- Hey. How you doing, Luke?
[Luke] Mr. Groff.
What can I do for you?
I can't believe it's come to this,
but, uh
[inhales]Larissa,
she's she's not doing well.
She, uh
[tense music playing]
[wood flooring creaking]
We we were hoping that you could, uh
just just
just for a little while. [chuckles]
Larissa just
just needs a little a little break.
Will you take care of the baby?
Um, I I
I guess I'd be as good as anyone.
[exhales] Good.
Good.
Um
I can, uh, pay you.
It's just you need to stay here.
Larissa just can't see Jackson right now.
Could set her off. Do you understand?
- [Jackson cooing]
- Oh, um
Can we keep this between us?
I just I don't I don't
I don't want people
to talk about Larissa, you you know.
She always said we could rely on you.
- [Jackson coos]
- Can we?
- Yeah.
- Great, thank you.
[Groff inhales, clears throat]
[somber music playing]
[crying]
[Luke] So I took you in,
and the next day,
I got the shock of my life.
What?
[male journalist] WZPR News on the hour
reports the death of Larissa Genrette,
drowned with her infant son
in what is being called
a boating accident.
The authorities
are investigating this tragedy.
Larissa Genrette was
the only child of area scion
- It's okay.
- Wes Genrette.
A family that has been
an integral part of North Carolina history
for over three hundred years.
Shouldn't we tell Wes
that Jackson's alive?
What? No.
The Genrettes? No, they'll just they'll
just try and take Jackson away from me.
No, no. He stays here.
We're just we're just looking out
for what's best for the child.
- But Wes
- Forget Wes!
Now, I know your history is spotty.
We don't want the police
to have to come around here.
[menacing music playing]
Do we?
No. No. [inhales]
[Groff] Good.
You'll keep Jackson. Keep your mouth shut.
You'll get paid.
We're just thinking about
what's right for the baby, right?
- Yeah.
- I'll be back.
When I can.
[somber music continues]
[car engine starting]
[Luke] Maybe he thought
he'd get some inheritance
if they thought you were dead too.
Now you try it.
I don't know.
Yeah, that's getting there.
I just know that, after a while,
I didn't want him to come back.
[tense music playing]
I knew it was wrong.
I let that old man believe
that his grandson was dead.
It messed me up.
- [melancholy music playing]
- I should've been a better father.
I know that.
So, you're telling me
my mom,
my real mom,
she's gone?
[Luke] That's what they say.
Drowned.
Boating accident. I I
I don't know.
[birds chirping]
So, I'm just a son of some Kook, huh?
[Luke] No.
No, man. Not the way you was raised.
But by blood,
you're a Genrette
and a Groff.
[tense music continues]
[metal rattling]
You're lying. [scoffs]
Look, I know it's a shock.
No, it's not a shock
because it's not true, Dad.
There's something in it for you.
That's what's going on.
- Why would I
- Goddammit, Dad!
How pathetic can you possibly be?
That's the angle you're going with?
Inheritance bullshit?
You're just using me yet again,
aren't you?
Well, guess what, Dad?
I'm not buying it this time.
Have fun living like a rat
the rest of your life.
J, there there's something
JJ, wait!
There's something else I gotta tell you.
[yelling] JJ! There's something else!
[JJ panting]
[panting continues]
[tense music intensifies]
[tense music fades]
- [thunder rumbling]
- [suspenseful music playing]
[John B] Cleo!
[Cleo] Over here.
I tracked him all the way back to the car.
I took the pistol.
I was gonna shoot him.
- Shh.
- What?
- [indistinct screaming]
- You hear that?
[Pope] Hey, you guys!
Hey!
[Pope and Sarah] Help!
- [Pope] Help!
- [Sarah] Help!
Can anyone hear us?
The water's rising.
We're gonna drown. Help!
- Please, help.
- [Pope] Can anyone hear us?
- [Cleo] Hey!
- We're getting help!
- [Pope] Hey!
- Do you hear that?
- [John B] Hey, guys! We got you.
- Please! Please!
- Ready? Help me lift. One, two, three.
- Yeah.
[grunts, pants]
[pants] It's stuck.
Okay, there's gotta be another option.
- We gotta break it.
- How are we gonna break this thing?
[Sarah] Anyone?
[Cleo] Stone breaks stone.
[thunder rumbling]
- [John B] Yeah.
- [Cleo] Maybe I can kick this off.
- [John B] Let's do it.
- [Cleo] On three.
- One
- [both]two, three!
[both grunting]
- [Sarah yelps]
- [Pope panting]
- [Pope] Get down. Get down.
- [Sarah] Oh my God. Wait!
[Pope] Come on. Get up.
- [mice squeaking]
- [Sarah moaning]
[Cleo] Get out of the way!
- [John B] We're coming.
- [Sarah screams] John B!
- [Cleo] We need something else.
- I got an idea. I got an idea.
Hey, we're coming.
[wood clattering]
[tense music playing]
- [mice squeaking]
- [Sarah and Pope] John B!
- [Pope] Cleo!
- Cleo!
[Cleo] Hey, we're coming!
- [John B] Ready?
- Yeah.
- [tense music continues]
- [John B grunts]
[Pope] Whoa. Careful.
- [Sarah] No. No. Rat. Rat.
- [Pope] Oh shit.
[Pope grunts]
- [Sarah yelps]
- [Pope groans]
[Pope and Sarah groaning]
[water splashing]
- [mice squeaking]
- [Sarah coughs]
- [John B] Hey, you guys!
- Hey, Sarah. Grab the rope.
You guys better hurry.
There might be rats down there.
[thunder rumbling]
- [tense music continues]
- [Sarah pants]
[boat engine revving]
[intriguing music playing]
[Groff] Hey, JJ.
I believe in you.
[intriguing music intensifies]
[boat engine revving]
[intriguing music fades]
[boat honks]
[seagulls squawking]
[knife scraping]
[seagulls squawking]
[gentle music playing over radio]
[John B] I was gonna pull the trigger.
Right in the street.
What the hell was I thinking?
I mean, how am I any different
from my father? I was I was gonna do it.
[Sarah] But you didn't.
That's the difference.
Nobody got hurt.
[boat honking]
This blue crown, I don't even
I don't give a shit.
Not even a little?
No, I'm tired of putting you in danger.
I I just wanna go home.
I wanna go back to our normal.
[Sarah] Okay, let's go home.
Easy.
Yeah.
You're not even a little curious what
those smugglers took from the catacombs?
No, I I mean, I would be, yes,
but you said you didn't see anything
and there was no treasure,
so I don't understand.
[Sarah] I did see a scroll-looking thing.
It had markings on it.
It's not treasure.
[intriguing music playing]
So, it wasn't a blue crown. It was a map?
Somewhat map-like.
Couldn't really tell.
Blackbeard leaves a map at the catacombs
under Stede Bonnet's grave.
Maybe he's thinking before he gets caught,
he leaves it there for Elizabeth so she
She could find the blue crown.
Holy shit.
[intriguing music continues, fades]
["Destiny" by Buju Banton
playing over radio]
Yeah ♪
I and I ♪
I wanna rule my destiny ♪
[Kiara] JJ, where have you been?
[JJ] Long story. Where are the others?
[Kiara] Almost here, why?
What happened?
Nothing.
Don't lie to me.
Doesn't matter. It's just my dad.
Oh shit. He's back?
Yep, he's been holding up
at Barracuda Mike's, I guess.
[Kiara] Wait, he's not trying
to come back here, right?
He didn't say anything
about the place being his?
[JJ] No, no. It wasn't about that.
'Cause the town council thing's tonight.
[music stops]
[tense music playing]
He told he told me he wasn't my real dad.
You wish.
Kie, it wasn't a joke. Like, he was being
I don't know what he was being,
but I get this.
- [Kiara] JJ.
- It's from Wes Genrette.
Look at this.
It says, "Talk to your father."
And then Luke says that Wes Genrette
is my grandfather.
Which makes Groff
Would make Groff your dad?
Yeah.
He's trying to tell you
that Chandler Groff is your dad?
No, I know. It doesn't make any sense.
But then he says, like, Larissa
You remember that painting?
The one Larissa Genrette,
where she drowned with her baby?
Okay.
He said that baby actually didn't die,
and that was me.
That I'm that baby.
[dramatic music playing]
I know. He's just trying
to work some inheritance scam.
That's all he's trying to do.
He's trying to get some money,
trying to use me for a quick buck,
'cause he's done it his entire life.
That's all he's doing.
Frankly, I don't know.
I'm sorry, JJ.
[car engine revving]
[dramatic music intensifies]
[Kiara] Finally, they're here. Jesus.
- Hey, uh, Kie.
- Yeah?
Can we, uh just not tell them?
Wait, why?
I mean, yeah, it's all bullshit,
but, like, I just don't want them, uh,
even thinking, like, I'm a Genrette.
Between us.
Between us.
[John B exhales]
Find it?
Mission failed on all fronts.
There was something there,
but we didn't get it.
- Well, at least the Twink made it back.
- Yeah.
- What's that smell?
- [Pope] You don't even want to know.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Lightner] So, we got the scroll.
But?
But do you really think
That this crown exists. Yeah, I do.
At least, it did exist.
Just like Finch said.
- [Lightner] Come on.
- Come on, what?
God's powers, grants all wishes?
- You really believe that?
- What's it matter what I believe?
I believe in money. We get the crown,
we hand it over. That's the job.
But you know, before we do,
we got some unfinished business
on Kildare.
[suspenseful music intensifies]
[suspenseful music fades]
[Pope] It's a catacomb.
- It's got a bunch of skulls around it.
- Jesus.
[Pope] The weirdest part is
other people were there
looking for the same thing
we were looking for.
It wasn't just other people.
It was the man who killed Terrance.
[Pope] Yeah, and there were rats.
Like, so many rats.
- I hate that I missed that.
- [Pope] Not fun.
Where did you ghost off to, big guy?
[reggae music playing on the radio]
Oh, I was, uh
[inhales]just trying
to help out the team.
Quick cash grab. Yeah.
But the plan fell through,
'cause it was Barracuda Mike.
Yeah, Barracuda Mike.
I'm not surprised that didn't work out.
Listen, I'm, uh, super sorry
about the rat stuff and everything,
but we have that bullshit zoning hearing
coming up tonight,
and we don't have any money for a lawyer.
Obviously.
Any ideas are welcome.
Oh, yeah, let me just study up
on real estate law in one day
That sounds like a lot of sarcasm
we don't really need right now, okay?
- Sorry, I was just rat swarmed, so.
- [John B] How about we call people?
The whole island is pissed
about what they've been doing.
We get everybody over there,
pack the house, rally the troops.
- Maybe we have a shot at winning this.
- [JJ] More the merrier.
I could get the surf squad out there.
From the beach.
Yeah, just make sure you make it back.
- I'll stay on mission. I promise.
- [Cleo] Pope.
Maybe we can call some of your family.
Maybe Uncle Roger.
- I can do that.
- [Kiara] Speaking of family,
this is gonna sound insane,
but Rafe came by.
[Sarah] What? Why?
I don't know.
He said he wanted to help us.
- [Cleo] Wow.
- [Kiara] Don't shoot the messenger.
- Rafe loves to help, doesn't he?
- [Sarah] "Rafe Cameron, CEO."
CEO of what?
[scoffs] Whatever.
I'll hit him up. Maybe he can help us.
All right. Let's do this shit.
Let's save Poguelandia.
- [tense music playing]
- [seagulls squawking]
[man] Dale says with Goat Island
becoming a nature preserve,
it's gonna bring in all kinds of tourists.
Hell, he even said The Cut
is gonna be a destination,
if you can believe it.
The man knows real estate. I'm just happy
we're getting in on the ground.
A nature preserve, Hollis?
Are you serious?
- So you're not even gonna get the land?
- [Hollis] Lies.
- Of course we have the land.
- [Sofia] Yeah, you'd better have land.
That was the whole deal.
Look, we need to talk. I need to see you.
If you insist, of course, sweetie.
We can meet tomorrow morning, early.
Talk it over.
Great. Thanks for making time
in your busy schedule.
[tense music continues]
A lot of people in town are saying
Goat Island's being deeded to the state
as a nature preserve.
That's absurd.
[Hollis chuckles, sighs]
I'm glad you said that.
[exhales] I mean
you are next in line, right?
Of course.
- I'm the last living heir to Goat Island.
- [groans]
It's been in the family for 300 years.
[Hollis sighs]
Do you think
they're gonna give it away now?
Yeah.
I will speak to Rafe.
Make sure he's not getting squishy.
And in the meantime,
you can handle the girlfriend?
Yeah.
[tense music builds]
[tense music continues]
[Sarah] Hello?
[door opens]
Hey.
Thank you for showing up. Good work.
- [Sarah] Please stop.
- Thank you.
I don't wanna argue.
We already have enough people against us.
[birds chirping]
Kiara mentioned
that you might be able to help.
Uh, no. No, not with the land stuff.
You guys are on your own with that.
Sorry. But there's there's something else
I wanted to talk to you about.
So, when
Dad died,
the first time [inhales]
um,
he said I got a quarter of what he had.
Yeah, he said I got a quarter too.
But you didn't get it, did you?
No.
Yeah, well, good luck trying to get that
from Rose's greedy paw.
- She's got that money locked down tight.
- Well, I keep trying to call.
- She won't even let me talk to Wheezie.
- Yes, yes, that's what I'm saying.
I mean, we're a family and I'm not
I'm not even allowed
to talk to my own sister?
And then Rose, she just gets
to keep all that gold for herself.
[splutters] I mean,
what gives her the right?
I mean, that's not what Dad intended.
That's not what Dad wanted.
- And it pisses me off.
- [banging on table]
That's our money, okay?
[exhales]
[tense music playing]
I don't know about you,
but I really I need that money.
- And what about the gold cross you stole?
- [Rafe] It was gold-plated.
It was a good score. It's not endless.
It's not like the merchant gold, so.
I'm so sorry to hear that.
I don't know. I was just thinking, um,
you know, you and me,
we try to get Wheezie back.
How?
I don't know how, but And then
then we try to get the money back,
which is why we need to work together.
Just like Dad taught us,
we align our interests.
And I just thought you and me,
we can get back what's ours. [inhales]
[tense music continues]
- Look, I'm trying here.
- No. No.
I'm sorry.
[door closes]
- [inhales]
- [car door opens]
Let's go.
How did it go?
It's Rafe.
Can't trust him.
[tense music fades]
[John B] Okay. Let's rally the troops.
[upbeat music playing]
[JJ] This is where we say, "Screw them."
We take the power back, right.
Thank you, man.
And there's power in numbers.
So, I need the Pogues to represent.
- You coming tonight?
- [man] Hell yeah.
Okay, that's what I want to hear. Unite!
They're trying to snatch it from under us.
Call everybody. Sound the alarm.
We're gonna need
all the help we can get, so be there.
These kids, they put
their heart and their soul into this.
They built on this and they're just
gonna come and take it from them.
Is that even legal?
One strong wind
and it's gonna be knocked over.
We're actually doing them a favor.
We'll tear it down
and build something real.
["Just Can't Be"
by The Flying Burrito Brothers playing]
Oh, my baby.
Hi.
Look at you. You all never wanna come
for a home-cooked meal, do you?
Home-cooked meal?
Trip to the woodshed,
that's what they need.
- Heyward.
- [Heyward] Uncle Roger would agree.
Look, can we just keep him out of this?
- Don't pay your daddy no mind.
- Hi, Cleo.
- Why do you have to do all this?
- [Heyward] I ain't do nothing.
[Kiara] I'm gonna go
say hey to my parents.
[Sarah] Okay.
- Hey, you.
- [Kiara] Hey.
- [Anna] You okay?
- I'm good.
Hey, kiddo.
- Came to say I told you so?
- [Anna] No.
- Dad came to support you, right?
- 100%.
- [man] Hey, y'all. Good luck in there.
- [Kiara] Thank you.
[Mike] The door is always open
for you.
[Anna] Babe, just leave it.
Come on. Come on, let's go inside.
[inhales, exhales]
[Sarah] Hey, Top.
Can I talk to you for a second?
Oh, no, honey.
My son has nothing to say to you.
Good luck sticking it to the man.
Daddy?
[John B] That was pretty bad.
[Sarah] Oh well.
Typical Topper, I would say.
[Sarah chuckles]
Hi. [laughs]
[music fades]
[mayor] Before we move on
with the rest of our agenda,
I want to remind everyone
to maintain civility and decorum
throughout the rest of these proceedings.
We're one island.
Why don't we all try to act like it?
[John B] Sure we are.
[mayor] Any disruption will warrant
expulsion and potential charges.
Understood?
Without further ado, we'll go on
to the reports of our Council Members,
starting with our Council Member Lawrence.
[Lawrence] Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
Agenda 8A, ordinance 31,
zoning for property located
at the end of Roger's Point Road.
Uh, Mr. Mayor, we have a resolution
from the town of Pelican
expressing support for the rezoning
of multi-use land
on the east side of the island,
including the aforementioned
Roger's Point Road property.
Wait. Did he just say
they already had a resolution?
The council is voting to recommend
allocating the amount of $60,000
to begin to transition that said property
How are they already voting?
[Lawrence]and rezoning request,
and with that I turn it over
to Council Member Chet.
I'd like to say, uh, we are lucky
to have the help of Mr. Zeasy,
who has been active
with developing the island
and has been a resource for us.
Thank you.
I appreciate that, Chet. Thank you.
I bet you wish we had a lawyer now.
No. I wish I had a fish bat, more like.
[mayor] Before we move on,
we are scheduled to hear from
some members of the community,
beginning with a representative
from the occupants
of the Roger's Point property,
which used to be the Maybank property.
Anybody feeling brave?
- I am. I got this.
- [John B] Whoa.
[Pope] Hey, no, no.
- Sit down, okay?
- Not me, then. All right.
- Somebody else has to go up.
- Then who?
- Pope.
- No, no way. I hate public speaking.
- John B.
- [man 1] Yeah, John B!
- [Pope] You got it.
- Me?
- I got this.
- You go?
Yeah.
[mayor] John Booker Routledge.
[crowd talking indistinctly]
- [man 2] You've got this, John B.
- [mayor] Quiet, please.
[woman 1] All right! Go, John B!
[woman 2] Preach it, brother J!
[man 3] Go, John B!
Please state your name for the record.
I am John Booker Routledge.
- Damn right.
- [man 1] That's it. That's right!
Look, I'm I'm
I'm not a lawyer, by any standard,
but honestly, this doesn't make any sense.
[crowd agrees]
I mean, we bought the property at auction,
and we have a fully functioning business
and have had for some time.
And and now you have a motion
for rezoning on our property?
[crowd agrees]
[John B] And if it passes,
we lose our business.
Yeah.
And we lose our home.
- Because of some bullshit!
- The fix is in!
[man 4] He's right. He's right.
[woman 2] That's no law!
[man 4] He's got a right!
[mayor] There will be order in this room.
Take your seats.
[man 5] Sit down, let him speak,
and shut the hell up!
[mayor] Mr. Routledge, you can continue.
- [melancholy music playing]
- [birds chirping]
As most of you know,
myself and Sarah,
we both lost our fathers last year.
All we are trying to do is rebuild a home.
[crowd applauding]
That's it.
Sir, with all due respect,
we're not looking for a handout.
[crowd agrees]
We just want to keep our home, all right?
And we don't want to get it taken
from us for some stupid club.
- I mean, how how is that legal?
- [Dale] Excuse me.
- How is that legal?
- [Dale] Excuse me.
- Mayor? Mayor?
- [John B] I don't understand.
[Dale] Excuse me. Excuse me.
- May I speak?
- Absolutely.
Thank you, Mayor.
There seems to be a misunderstanding.
Okay? And I think I can clarify.
Oh my God.
[mayor] Mr. Routledge, you have the floor.
Are you willing to let Mr. Zeasy speak?
If you can explain it
a little better, Dale.
Excuse me, son. You can stand right here.
[John B] Thank you, sir.
So, what the, uh, current occupants
of the land don't seem to understand
is that there is an injunction
to invalidate the most recent sale.
[crowd complaining]
What does he mean, "invalidate"?
There was a pre-existing promissory note
from the original owner
that was in the process of being finalized
when the land auction took place.
[crowd complains]
The bank
wasn't legally allowed to go to auction.
Bullshit.
We have a promissory note right here
from the original owner,
signed before the auction,
and finalized by Judge Holden.
[scattered applause]
That means our sale was invalid.
- How can they even do that?
- [mayor] Where is the original owner?
And can he validate
the authenticity of this document?
[Dale] Yes, he can.
- He's right here.
- [tense music playing]
[crowd complains]
- [man 6] There he is!
- [woman 3] Luke.
- That's his son!

- [man 7] Why even show yourself?
- [woman 4] That is crazy!
[Ruthie laughs]
I'm sorry, J.
[sad music playing]
Can he do that?
- Is he not a fugitive?
- [Pope] Isn't it obvious?
He signs the promissory note,
and in exchange, he gets amnesty.
[woman 2] This can't be legal!

- They stole it 'cause they wanted it!
[woman 2] They just wanna kick us out!
- [mayor] Order in this room.
- How can you say that?
After they do it to us,
they're gonna do it to all of you.
This is theft!
You know it, I know it.
- [mayor] There will be order in this room.
- No. And you?
- [mayor] Sit back down.
- I don't even know how you're doing this.
- Sheriff Shoupe.
- Because JJ loved you.
He shouldn't have, but he did.
And you guys should be ashamed.
- All of you.
- Bailiff, clear this hall.
- [Mike] That's my daughter!
- No, get away from me. Get away from me.
I'm not done talking.
- Don't touch her!
- Get your hands off my daughter!
- That's not necessary. That is not.
- [Mike] Don't touch her! Don't touch her!

Thank you for coming.
Pardon the formality. [chuckles]
I'm a little old-fashioned, I guess.
I just like to see
who I'm in business with.
Potentially in business with.
The wire hasn't gone through yet, so.
My girlfriend thinks I should cut it off.
You know, maybe she's right.
[menacing music playing]
- Well, that would be a mistake.
- Would it?
Your choice, of course,
but look around you.
[chuckles softly] This is Goat Island.
It would take a moron to mess this up.
- Mmm.
- [chuckles] Practically sells itself.
That's why we hand-picked you, Rafe.
You're hungry.
You're an outsider.
They look down on you.
Don't they?

They try.
Pretty unsuccessfully. We'll see who wins.
[Groff] That's right.
That's why we like you, Rafe.
You're like me.
You're not afraid to play hardball.
Stick it to them.
That's what you want. Isn't it?
[thunder rumbling]
[Groff] Stick it to 'em.
It's your choice, of course.
But I, uh
I'd like to do it today.
