        a big part of the show,      

45
00:02:01,496 --> 00:02:04,207
       because that's                
       the first thing you hear.     

46
00:02:04,249 --> 00:02:08,044
       It's actually one of those    
       details that seems small,     

47
00:02:08,086 --> 00:02:10,922
   but you definitely don't want    
   to be trying to figure this out 

48
00:02:10,964 --> 00:02:13,591
    two days before the show        
    'cause you forgot. [chuckles]

         [Jesse]                    
          I'm gonna book her.        

53
00:02:22,517 --> 00:02:25,311
       Woman of color                
       announcing the Super Bowl.    

54
00:02:25,353 --> 00:02:27,605
            How about that?          

55
00:02:27,647 --> 00:02:29,315
           -Hey.                    
           -[Jana]   Hello.           

56
00:02:29,357 --> 00:02:31,734
    [Jesse]   This is my first year   
     as the executive producer       

57
00:02:31,776 --> 00:02:33,486
           of the Super Bowl         
           Halftime Show.            

58
00:02:33,528 --> 00:02:36,364
         I think I'm going down      
         on Sunday.                  

59
00:02:36,406 --> 00:02:37,699
         Did you listen             
         to that voice yet?         

60
00:02:37,740 --> 00:02:39,617
      I really like her voice.      

61
00:02:39,659 --> 00:02:44,122
       I started as a co-producer    
       on BET's 20th Anniversary.    

62
00:02:44,164 --> 00:02:47,000
      From there, it's just grown    
      into the Grammys               

63
00:02:47,041 --> 00:02:50,503
      and the Oscars                 
      and now something like this,   

64
00:02:50,545 --> 00:02:53,464
       where Roc Nation and Pepsi    
       and the NFL                   

65
00:02:53,506 --> 00:02:57,218
      just hand you the keys         
      to one of the fanciest cars    

66
00:02:57,260 --> 00:02:59,804
         on the live event lot.      

67
00:02:59,846 --> 00:03:02,515
      I'm just excited to be able    
      to drive this thing.           

68
00:03:02,557 --> 00:03:06,269
          Oh, shit.                 
          I've got a Zoom.          

69
00:03:06,311 --> 00:03:08,688
          It is a COVID year.        

70
00:03:08,730 --> 00:03:11,024
           People don't know         
           what to expect.           

71
00:03:11,065 --> 00:03:13,026
      So we're really working hard   

72
00:03:13,067 --> 00:03:16,029
      to make sure                   
      that everything is flawless.   

73
00:03:16,070 --> 00:03:18,031
       You don't want to wake up     
       the next morning              

74
00:03:18,072 --> 00:03:21,117
      and Twitter is not pleased.

77
00:03:29,250 --> 00:03:33,338
       They say that the halftime    
       show is the most watched      

78
00:03:33,379 --> 00:03:37,675
         12 or 13 minutes            
         in television, period.      

79
00:03:37,717 --> 00:03:41,721
     Fifty-four years of tradition   
     have come to this moment,       

80
00:03:41,763 --> 00:03:44,432
         where the entire world      
         watches.                    

81
00:03:44,474 --> 00:03:46,559
      [reporter]   America will be    
       blinded by the lights         

82
00:03:46,601 --> 00:03:47,894
            when The Weeknd          
            takes the stage          

83
00:03:47,936 --> 00:03:50,730
         for the halftime show       
         on February 7th.            

84
00:03:50,772 --> 00:03:52,941
       [Jana]   This is               
        Roc Nation's second year     

85
00:03:52,982 --> 00:03:55,610
        working with the NFL        
        and with Pepsi              

86
00:03:55,652 --> 00:03:59,322
      specifically on the Pepsi     
      Super Bowl Halftime Show.     

87
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:04,077
     We want to bring something      
     that's never been seen before, 

88
00:04:04,118 --> 00:04:08,039
       and we want to also           
       push the culture forward.     

89
00:04:08,081 --> 00:04:12,085
    [reporter]   This is the biggest 
     concert of the year.

          everybody watching,        

91
00:04:14,254 --> 00:04:17,257
      but whatever happens          
      on that field is history.

00:04:22,804 --> 00:04:24,931
      [Seth]   Now we have COVID,     

95
00:04:24,973 --> 00:04:26,933
          and there's been           
          no live performances       

96
00:04:26,975 --> 00:04:29,686
     on a major scale for so long.   

97
00:04:29,727 --> 00:04:31,771
        We have a whole new team     
        in here.

     how we're gonna execute this.

     a Super Bowl Halftime Show     

100
00:04:36,818 --> 00:04:37,944

00:06:37,605 --> 00:06:39,565
    and cofounder of XO Records.    

130
00:06:39,607 --> 00:06:43,069
          My role involves           
          extracting the ideas       

131
00:06:43,111 --> 00:06:45,488
          out of Abel's head.        

132
00:06:45,530 --> 00:06:48,032
      I want to make sure that       
      nothing falls off the tracks   

133
00:06:48,074 --> 00:06:51,077
     and he's happy                  
     with whatever the outcome is.   

134
00:06:51,119 --> 00:06:53,746
          [Abel]                    
            I'm a starboy          

135
00:06:53,788 --> 00:06:55,039
      [La Mar]                      
       Knowing the Super Bowl is     

136
00:06:55,081 --> 00:06:57,083
         a really make-or-break      
         situation,                  

137
00:06:57,125 --> 00:06:58,626
          we wanted to do            
          something different,       

138
00:06:58,668 --> 00:07:00,837
        do something that's true     
        to us, true to our fans,     

139
00:07:00,878 --> 00:07:02,547
        true to the legacy          
        that we're building.        

140
00:07:02,588 --> 00:07:05,591
     ["Blinding Lights" playing]    

141
00:07:05,633 --> 00:07:09,887
     We really wanted to tell more   
     of a story of   After Hours.      

142
00:07:09,929 --> 00:07:12,723
         We dropped                  
         the first video, 2019,      

143
00:07:12,765 --> 00:07:15,059
          and that whole time,       

144
00:07:15,101 --> 00:07:17,854
           Abel committed            
           to that character.        

145
00:07:17,895 --> 00:07:19,605
          We wanted to present       
         After Hours                

146
00:07:19,647 --> 00:07:23,067
          at the Super Bowl--        
          Vegas, the lights.         

147
00:07:23,109 --> 00:07:25,194
         And then we wanted          
         to capture a fraction       

148
00:07:25,236 --> 00:07:27,905
        of the Beijing Olympics,     
        the scale of it,             

149
00:07:27,947 --> 00:07:30,658
           how everything            
           was choreographed.        

150
00:07:30,700 --> 00:07:33,077
     Because of the "limitations,"   

151
00:07:33,119 --> 00:07:36,372
    it actually excelled            
    the creative in so many ways.   

152
00:07:36,414 --> 00:07:37,957
          Building that stage        

153
00:07:37,999 --> 00:07:40,126
         several weeks before        
         the actual performance      

154
00:07:40,168 --> 00:07:41,919
           versus how it was         
           historically done,        

155
00:07:41,961 --> 00:07:44,213
        which is 12 minutes          
        before the performance,      

156
00:07:44,255 --> 00:07:46,299
         changed everything.        

157
00:07:51,846 --> 00:07:55,641
      [Charm] Hi. Good morning.     

158
00:07:55,683 --> 00:07:58,644
       Lovely to see you all.       
       Can't wait to be there.      

159
00:07:58,686 --> 00:08:00,438
    Look, so this meeting's         
    a little longer than normal.    

160
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,732
     We just want to go through     
     the show, beat by beat.        

161
00:08:02,773 --> 00:08:04,734
 Just want to make sure            
 we're all on the same page.       

162
00:08:04,775 --> 00:08:06,569
       I'm confident in the show     

163
00:08:06,611 --> 00:08:09,864
          because it's A-list        
          from top to bottom.        

164
00:08:09,906 --> 00:08:12,325
           The Weeknd is             
           an A-list artist.         

165
00:08:12,366 --> 00:08:15,620
         Everyone on his team--      
         La Mar, Es...               

166
00:08:15,661 --> 00:08:19,332
    Think it can be, you know--     
    yeah, celebratory and joyful.   

167
00:08:19,373 --> 00:08:21,042
        [Jesse]   Our director,       
         Hamish Hamilton,            

168
00:08:21,083 --> 00:08:24,170
     he's one of the greatest        
     variety directors of all time. 

169
00:08:24,212 --> 00:08:26,214
     I want to see a bit of joy.    

170
00:08:26,255 --> 00:08:28,174
         I want to see              
         a bit of humanity.         

171
00:08:28,216 --> 00:08:31,552
       And Super Bowl Halftime      
       is like--it's kind of--      

172
00:08:31,594 --> 00:08:33,930
        Hopefully there's           
        some normality to it.       

173
00:08:33,971 --> 00:08:37,266
   [Dionne]   Producing a live show, 
 in general,                       

174
00:08:37,308 --> 00:08:41,854
         is a very                   
         high-stress endeavor.       

175
00:08:41,896 --> 00:08:46,192
           [audio echoing]          

176
00:08:46,234 --> 00:08:47,610
       Someone's echo's crazy       
       right now.                   

177
00:08:47,652 --> 00:08:50,363
   Do you might muting, somebody?   
   Okay.                            

178
00:08:50,404 --> 00:08:53,366
        [Dionne]   To add             
         on top of that COVID,       

179
00:08:53,407 --> 00:08:57,703
     it definitely adds              
     an entire layer of difficulty   

180
00:08:57,745 --> 00:08:59,205
            to the process.          

181
00:08:59,247 --> 00:09:02,291
        Okay. So somehow            
        we get through that.        

182
00:09:02,333 --> 00:09:05,294
             [laughter]             

183
00:09:07,421 --> 00:09:10,049
            We're starting           
            with a pre-tape,         

184
00:09:10,091 --> 00:09:13,553
   where it's gonna be a seamless   
   transition from tape to live.    

185
00:09:13,594 --> 00:09:16,514
            exciting music         

186
00:09:16,556 --> 00:09:21,519
                                  

187
00:09:24,397 --> 00:09:27,191
          Pepsi has been             
          very collaborative.        

188
00:09:27,233 --> 00:09:29,026
         They're very creative       
         over there.                 

189
00:09:29,068 --> 00:09:31,070
           And they are              
           an essential piece        

190
00:09:31,112 --> 00:09:32,905
       of the Super Bowl Halftime    
       family.                       

191
00:09:35,241 --> 00:09:36,993
       [director] And places.       

192
00:09:37,034 --> 00:09:39,870
      "Call Out My Name" playing  

193
00:09:39,912 --> 00:09:44,875
                                  

194
00:09:48,462 --> 00:09:50,089
      [Alex]                        
       The show starts with this     

195
00:09:50,131 --> 00:09:54,844
       very fantastical built set    
       that appears kind of like     

196
00:09:54,885 --> 00:09:58,180
           a two-dimensional,        
           flat photograph.          

197
00:09:59,974 --> 00:10:02,184
      As the camera starts moving,   

198
00:10:02,226 --> 00:10:05,938
       you're starting to realize    
       how this has been built,      

199
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:07,773
        the three-dimensionality     
        of it.                       

200
00:10:07,815 --> 00:10:11,527
                                  

201
00:10:11,569 --> 00:10:12,945
    [director] Okay! Same places.   

202
00:10:12,987 --> 00:10:15,948
        All right, let's run        
        that through again.         

203
00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:17,783
     [Alex]   I think one             
      of the biggest tragedies is    

204
00:10:17,825 --> 00:10:22,121
   people not realizing what        
   gets put into making something, 

205
00:10:22,163 --> 00:10:24,457
       how hard a simple shot       
       or thing might be,           

206
00:10:24,498 --> 00:10:27,251
          in reality,                
          for everyone on set.       

207
00:10:27,293 --> 00:10:29,420
        All this is gonna be green 
        screen, too, or just this? 

208
00:10:29,462 --> 00:10:31,172
 This is the bottom                
 of the Jumbotron.                 

209
00:10:31,213 --> 00:10:32,673
 This is all in the Jumbotron.     

210
00:10:32,715 --> 00:10:34,258
   [Abel] It's gonna start going-- 

211
00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:36,177
    [Alex] Yeah. And we pull out    
    of the Jumbotron screen,        

212
00:10:36,218 --> 00:10:38,095
           floating--we pull past   
           the floating choir guy. 

213
00:10:38,137 --> 00:10:39,639
 Got it. Got it.                   

214
00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:41,766
      [Alex] We see you sitting     
      on the Jumbotron, choir guy. 

215
00:10:41,807 --> 00:10:43,017
       [Abel] That's pre-shot.      

216
00:10:43,059 --> 00:10:44,393
          [Alex] That's all         
          pre-recorded.             

217
00:10:46,646 --> 00:10:50,691
     What's happening here is we     
     are suspending a choir member. 

218
00:10:50,733 --> 00:10:53,194
     [director] Two, one, drop.     

219
00:10:53,235 --> 00:10:55,237
      [Alex]   What the piece         
       of continuity is gonna be     

220
00:10:55,279 --> 00:10:58,658
     is both audio and visually,    
     him descending into frame,     

221
00:10:58,699 --> 00:11:00,493
        and then seeing the same     
        person at the Super Bowl     

222
00:11:00,534 --> 00:11:04,330
     descending into our frame       
     as we cut to our final choir,   

223
00:11:04,372 --> 00:11:05,665
          and it works like         
          a magic trick,            

224
00:11:05,706 --> 00:11:08,125
    and everyone's like, "Ta-da!"   

225
00:11:08,167 --> 00:11:10,670
      "Wow, that felt seamless,     
      and it felt live."            

226
00:11:10,711 --> 00:11:12,338
                     There you go! 

227
00:11:12,380 --> 00:11:14,674
       But if it goes badly,         
       it's 'cause it looks fake.    

228
00:11:14,715 --> 00:11:16,008
     That was perfect, Charlie.     

229
00:11:16,050 --> 00:11:18,302
   Buddy! That was good, Charlie.   

230
00:11:18,344 --> 00:11:21,180
         [Alex] Fantastic.          
         That was fantastic.        

231
00:11:21,222 --> 00:11:24,183
       Yeah, so let me see...       

232
00:11:24,225 --> 00:11:26,852
        [Jesse]   I'll know           
         in the next hour or so      

233
00:11:26,894 --> 00:11:28,854
        or by tomorrow morning.      

234
00:11:28,896 --> 00:11:30,523
        It was "Feel It Coming,"     

235
00:11:30,564 --> 00:11:32,525
      "Earned It,"                   
      and then "Save Your Tears."    

236
00:11:32,566 --> 00:11:35,027
      He flipped "Save Your Tears"   
      and "Earned It."               

237
00:11:35,069 --> 00:11:36,362
      [Charm]   I don't think         
       what people understand is     

238
00:11:36,404 --> 00:11:37,905
           when they move--          
           make those little,        

239
00:11:37,947 --> 00:11:41,742
       small transitions, I have     
       to change choreo, right?      

240
00:11:41,784 --> 00:11:43,661
       [Jesse]   You can do this.     
        This is gonna be fine.       

241
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:46,497
       Don't even worry about it.    
       We're gonna do fine.          

242
00:11:46,539 --> 00:11:48,749
      The switching of the songs,    

243
00:11:48,791 --> 00:11:51,043
         the sequence                
         really fucks Charm up.      

244
00:11:51,085 --> 00:11:53,879
 Why does it fuck up Charm?        
 She has to redo it?               

245
00:11:53,921 --> 00:11:56,215
            Because, first of all, 
            she needs choreography 

246
00:11:56,257 --> 00:11:57,925
              for "Save My Tears." 

247
00:11:57,967 --> 00:12:00,469
   And they had it all planned out 

248
00:12:00,511 --> 00:12:02,680
       on how that choir            
       was gonna get to the field. 

249
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:03,806
 I know.                           
 I was thinking about that.        

250
00:12:03,848 --> 00:12:05,516
            Now she can't do that. 

251
00:12:05,558 --> 00:12:07,893
 So it's like, what,               
 they need more bodies, or--       

252
00:12:07,935 --> 00:12:09,478
               [Jesse] We may need

              Well, hang on,        
              let's talk to Charm. 

254
00:12:11,105 --> 00:12:12,565
        Let's see what Charm says. 

255
00:12:12,606 --> 00:12:15,276
           [line trilling]          

256
00:12:17,611 --> 00:12:19,572
            -Hey.                   
            -[Charm]   Hi.            

257
00:12:19,613 --> 00:12:21,907
   -Hey, so I'm here with La Mar.   
   -[Charm]   Yeah?                   

258
00:12:21,949 --> 00:12:23,743
          [La Mar] I'm apologizing 
          on Abel's behalf          

259
00:12:23,784 --> 00:12:25,161
       for the last-minute switch. 

260
00:12:25,202 --> 00:12:27,079
   Musically, he feels it enhances 

261
00:12:27,121 --> 00:12:29,206
             the sonic progression 
             of the show.           

262
00:12:29,248 --> 00:12:30,583
        I don't think               
        there's anything we can do 

263
00:12:30,624 --> 00:12:31,917
            to talk him out of it. 

264
00:12:31,959 --> 00:12:33,586
         [Charm]   Well,              
          we'll figure it out.       

265
00:12:33,627 --> 00:12:35,421
     [Jesse]   When The Weeknd was    
      looking for a choreographer    

266
00:12:35,463 --> 00:12:37,381
     and then Charm's name came up, 

267
00:12:37,423 --> 00:12:41,093
         we knew that                
         Charm would be great.       

268
00:12:41,135 --> 00:12:42,928
         We've done                  
         the Grammys together.       

269
00:12:42,970 --> 00:12:44,597
         We've done BET Awards       
         together.                   

270
00:12:44,638 --> 00:12:46,390
        All of her performances      
        are the ones                 

271
00:12:46,432 --> 00:12:47,975
      that everybody talks about.    

272
00:12:51,687 --> 00:12:54,231
       [Charm]   I was home,          
        and I got a phone call.      

273
00:12:54,273 --> 00:12:56,108
       And I think it was La Mar.    

274
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:58,277
       He was like, "Hey, so,        
       what's your process like?     

275
00:12:58,319 --> 00:12:59,695
         'Cause we're doing         
         the Super Bowl."           

276
00:12:59,737 --> 00:13:01,739
     And literally, I was like--    
     I don't know if La Mar         

277
00:13:01,781 --> 00:13:03,991
    could tell on the phone,        
    I was like, "Eh, Super Bowl?"   

278
00:13:04,033 --> 00:13:07,828
   [laughs] I had to keep my cool, 
   you know?                        

279
00:13:07,870 --> 00:13:10,122
     I'm from Compton, California.   

280
00:13:10,164 --> 00:13:11,457
           As a kid, I loved         
           to choreograph.           

281
00:13:11,499 --> 00:13:13,209
         I loved to make moves.      

282
00:13:13,250 --> 00:13:15,419
      I didn't know it was called    
      choreography at the time.      

283
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:17,755
      My mentor, Fatima Robinson,    

284
00:13:17,797 --> 00:13:19,465
       we met                        
       when I was ten years old.     

285
00:13:19,507 --> 00:13:22,927
     And then I was her assistant    
     when she did her Super Bowl.    

286
00:13:22,968 --> 00:13:25,721
      Now I'm choreographing        
      this amazing performance      

287
00:13:25,763 --> 00:13:27,473
      for this amazing artist.      

288
00:13:27,515 --> 00:13:29,767
            And in COVID.           
            [chuckles]              

289
00:13:29,809 --> 00:13:33,229
       It's like--it's crazy.       

290
00:13:33,270 --> 00:13:36,649
   ["Can't Feel My Face" playing]   

291
00:13:36,690 --> 00:13:39,151
        I met Abel                   
        in our first rehearsal.      

292
00:13:39,193 --> 00:13:40,611
         I've seen his videos,       
         of course.                  

293
00:13:40,653 --> 00:13:42,154
      I've seen his performances.    

294
00:13:42,196 --> 00:13:44,365
          And I kind of just         
          based the choreo off       

295
00:13:44,406 --> 00:13:47,326
     of what I thought he would do. 

296
00:13:47,368 --> 00:13:50,329
       And then when he got          
       into the room, he saw it.     

297
00:13:50,371 --> 00:13:51,831
           Then we collabed,         

298
00:13:51,872 --> 00:13:53,165
           and it built,             
           and it made sense.        

299
00:13:53,207 --> 00:13:55,334
            She told me,            
           "Don't worry"...         

300
00:13:55,376 --> 00:13:57,628
        [Charm]   Everything is       
         an extension of him,        

301
00:13:57,670 --> 00:13:59,839
      because he's very in there.    

302
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,591
   I love artists who are hands-on 
   with the creative process        

303
00:14:02,633 --> 00:14:05,177
      and knowing what he wants     
      to feel around him.           

304
00:14:05,219 --> 00:14:06,846
            She told me...         

305
00:14:06,887 --> 00:14:08,472
       [Charm]                      
        To see him throw himself     

306
00:14:08,514 --> 00:14:10,891
      in the middle of the dancers   
      and just go for it             

307
00:14:10,933 --> 00:14:12,560
         is fucking dope, man.       

308

         when I'm with you          

309

             But I love it,         
            but I love it           

310
00:14:17,731 --> 00:14:19,775
                                 

311
00:14:19,817 --> 00:14:21,151
     [Charm]                        
      This particular performance,   

312
00:14:21,193 --> 00:14:23,028
      there is different sections.   

313
00:14:23,070 --> 00:14:26,991
         Around Abel, there are      
         20 dancers from LA.         

314
00:14:27,032 --> 00:14:28,492
           We have the choir,        

315
00:14:28,534 --> 00:14:32,872
       which is, like, 75 guys      
       who are from all over,       

316

317
00:14:35,749 --> 00:14:37,209
     and then we have our field.    

318

381
00:17:46,231 --> 00:17:50,402
      and I had a Killa Kam         
      sort of pink polo shirt.      

382
00:17:50,444 --> 00:17:54,865
       And we were just admirers     
       of art, cinema, fashion,      

383
00:17:54,907 --> 00:17:57,159
         underground rap scene       
         at the time.                

384
00:17:57,201 --> 00:18:00,579
          That really sparked        
          our friendship.            

385
00:18:00,621 --> 00:18:04,625
      He started exploring           
      songwriting and doing music.   

386
00:18:04,666 --> 00:18:07,002
         I was gonna become         
         a registered nurse,        

387
00:18:07,044 --> 00:18:08,587
        until I met Abel Tesfaye     

388
00:18:08,629 --> 00:18:12,549
           and he dragged me         
           on his adventure.         

389
00:18:12,591 --> 00:18:14,468
        Abel and myself              
        both had single mothers      

390
00:18:14,510 --> 00:18:17,262
     that were providing             
     for everyone in the household. 

391
00:18:17,304 --> 00:18:19,223
          So, when we moved         
          out of our home,          

392
00:18:19,264 --> 00:18:21,642
    we got even poorer, you know?   

393
00:18:21,683 --> 00:18:24,311
     We've been on such a journey.   

394
00:18:24,353 --> 00:18:26,021
        I shot the                   
       House of Balloons   cover      

395
00:18:26,063 --> 00:18:28,440
          in my mom's bathtub        
          ten years ago.             

396
00:18:28,482 --> 00:18:29,900
         We go from that image       

397
00:18:29,942 --> 00:18:32,986
     to rolling out                 
     the Super Bowl performance     

398
00:18:33,028 --> 00:18:36,740
      in that ten-year span--       
      just, it's beyond words.      

399
00:18:36,782 --> 00:18:41,662
                                  

400
00:18:43,497 --> 00:18:44,456
           [clears throat]          

401
00:18:46,333 --> 00:18:48,961
        -[Lila]   Mr. Collins.        
        -Play, girl.                

402
00:18:49,002 --> 00:18:50,295
       -[Lila]   What up, baby?       
       -[Jesse] So--                

403
00:18:50,337 --> 00:18:51,630
     [Lila]   Should I be afraid?     

404
00:18:51,672 --> 00:18:54,550
        [Jesse] Of course           
        you should be afraid.       

405
00:18:54,591 --> 00:18:56,593
    No, this is just a check-in.    

406
00:18:56,635 --> 00:19:00,180
         The choir all have         
         the N95s, right?           

407
00:19:00,222 --> 00:19:01,515
          [Lila]   Yes, sir.          

408
00:19:01,557 --> 00:19:04,601
        [Jesse] All right.          
        So I talked to Seth.        

409
00:19:04,643 --> 00:19:08,522
   They're fine with the bandages   
   for the field cast.              

410
00:19:08,564 --> 00:19:12,025
        They're not fine--          
        Oh, we just lost you.       

411
00:19:12,067 --> 00:19:14,194
             funky music           

412
00:19:14,236 --> 00:19:18,073
        Lila Nikole's never done     
        this show before.            

413
00:19:18,115 --> 00:19:21,201
        But she's done               
        a ton of fashion shows.      

414
00:19:21,243 --> 00:19:23,704
        We've done a ton             
        of award shows together.     

415
00:19:23,745 --> 00:19:27,291
     She knows how to apply          
     the things that she's learned   

416
00:19:27,332 --> 00:19:30,252
           over the years            
           into this moment.         

417
00:19:30,294 --> 00:19:35,465
                                  

418
00:19:35,507 --> 00:19:37,509
      [Lila]   Last year, I wanted    
       to go to the Super Bowl,      

419
00:19:37,551 --> 00:19:40,721
         but the ticket prices       
         were astronomical.          

420
00:19:40,762 --> 00:19:42,389
         Jesse knows everybody,      
         so I was like,              

421
00:19:42,431 --> 00:19:44,349
       "Yo, Jess,                    
       help me get some tickets."    

422
00:19:44,391 --> 00:19:46,351
         He calls me                 
         a couple months later.      

423
00:19:46,393 --> 00:19:47,769
            "You want to do          
            the Super Bowl?"         

424
00:19:47,811 --> 00:19:51,356
      So I thought he wanted        
      to go to the Super Bowl.      

425
00:19:51,398 --> 00:19:52,983
         He's like, "All right,      
         so you're gonna have        

426
00:19:53,025 --> 00:19:56,028
      to be available                
      from October till whenever."   

427
00:19:56,069 --> 00:19:58,363
        And I was like, "Wait,       
        like, what do you mean?"     

428
00:19:58,405 --> 00:19:59,865
       Like, it didn't make sense    
       for a minute.                 

429
00:19:59,907 --> 00:20:02,451
         So I acted like             
         it wasn't a big deal.       

430
00:20:02,492 --> 00:20:04,620
    I get off the phone, and        
    I'm just sitting right here,    

431
00:20:04,661 --> 00:20:06,538
        and I was just              
        sitting there, like,        

432
00:20:06,580 --> 00:20:07,873
          "Did I just get           
          the Super Bowl?"          

433
00:20:07,915 --> 00:20:10,709
   Like, it didn't really kick in. 

434
00:20:10,751 --> 00:20:13,378
          I put on the Beyoncé       
          halftime show,             

435
00:20:13,420 --> 00:20:15,130
         and I, like, snapped.       

436
00:20:15,172 --> 00:20:17,716
         I just started crying.      

437
00:20:17,758 --> 00:20:20,552
         I'm not an emotional,       
         crying kind of person,      

438
00:20:20,594 --> 00:20:22,387
           but I'm a die-hard        
           football fan.             

439
00:20:22,429 --> 00:20:24,389
         That's me                   
         and my father's thing.      

440
00:20:24,431 --> 00:20:25,682
          Ever since                 
          I was a little girl,       

441
00:20:25,724 --> 00:20:28,060
        every Sunday                 
        we would watch football.     

442
00:20:28,101 --> 00:20:30,771
          So this job is just        
          very special to me         

443
00:20:30,812 --> 00:20:33,190
           because of my dad.        

444
00:20:33,232 --> 00:20:34,399
   If you see me skipping around,   

445
00:20:34,441 --> 00:20:37,069
        like, you know,             
        it's just what it is.       

446
00:20:37,110 --> 00:20:39,238
       I'm laughing, because        
       if you look over there,      

447
00:20:39,279 --> 00:20:41,907
       look what he's wearing.      

448
00:20:41,949 --> 00:20:44,409
     My team,                       
     they're creative children.     

449
00:20:44,451 --> 00:20:46,245
              [laughs]              

450
00:20:46,286 --> 00:20:50,582
     Okay, so our show is           
     an extension of his chaos.     

451
00:20:50,624 --> 00:20:52,459
       So the only way for you      
       to understand that is        

452
00:20:52,501 --> 00:20:54,044
      to see one of his videos.     

453
00:20:54,086 --> 00:20:55,587
     ["Save Your Tears" playing]    

454
00:20:55,629 --> 00:20:59,591
           I saw you dancing        
          in a crowded room         

455
00:20:59,633 --> 00:21:03,762
         You look so happy          
        when I'm not with you       

456
00:21:03,804 --> 00:21:06,056
     So you'll see the red jacket, 

457
00:21:06,098 --> 00:21:08,100
                     black gloves, 

458
00:21:08,141 --> 00:21:10,769
         black tie, black suit,     
         black pants, black shoes. 

459
00:21:10,811 --> 00:21:14,773
     That's our wardrobe, but ours 
     is just a multiplied version. 

460
00:21:14,815 --> 00:21:17,192
         Gloves, tie, belt.         

461
00:21:17,234 --> 00:21:19,403
       So we're basically           
       gonna mimic this look.       

462
00:21:19,444 --> 00:21:22,281
    So here is our final version.   

463
00:21:22,322 --> 00:21:25,409
      Everybody will be wearing     
      this red jacket.              

464
00:21:25,450 --> 00:21:26,910
           We have to make           
           hundreds of these         

465
00:21:26,952 --> 00:21:29,454
         in a very small amount      
         of time.                    

466
00:21:29,496 --> 00:21:32,457
      Dear red jacket,              
      how I love and hate you.      

467
00:21:32,499 --> 00:21:33,667
          I'm just kidding.         

468
00:21:33,709 --> 00:21:35,627
          Well, his shoes           
          are custom-made.          

469
00:21:35,669 --> 00:21:37,629
      -[designer] Beautiful.        
      -And we cannot get them.      

470
00:21:37,671 --> 00:21:40,465
     So here is a dancer version    
     for everybody.                 

471
00:21:40,507 --> 00:21:42,968
          It's just a basic         
          black dance shoe.         

472
00:21:43,010 --> 00:21:45,804
                    Wait. Hold on. 

473
00:21:45,846 --> 00:21:49,266
      These are not even the shoes 
      that I ordered. Oh, shit.     

474
00:21:49,308 --> 00:21:50,475
     [JC] Well, they look black.    

475
00:21:50,517 --> 00:21:51,977
              Yeah, but they can't 
              look like--           

476
00:21:52,019 --> 00:21:54,021
     they're supposed to look like 
     a basic black shoe.            

477
00:21:54,062 --> 00:21:55,480
                 See, they sent me 
                 the wrong shit.    

478
00:21:55,522 --> 00:21:57,649
                   Look. No, look. 

479
00:21:57,691 --> 00:21:59,234
            That's what I ordered. 

480
00:22:01,820 --> 00:22:04,406
     -[Lila] They're all wrong?     
     -[designer] All the same?      

481
00:22:04,448 --> 00:22:07,492
 Yeah, they're all wrong.          
 Same thing.                       

482
00:22:07,534 --> 00:22:10,912
       [Lila] We're gonna have      
       to pull all of these.        

483
00:22:10,954 --> 00:22:12,497
       How many of those are?       

484
00:22:12,539 --> 00:22:13,832
 One, two, three, four, five,      
 six, seven, eight, nine, ten,     

485
00:22:13,874 --> 00:22:15,292
 11, 12, 13.                       

486
00:22:15,334 --> 00:22:16,626
           Now we have               
           to return them all        

487
00:22:16,668 --> 00:22:20,672
        and try and find             
        30 more pairs to match.      

488
00:22:20,714 --> 00:22:22,924
      And we need it in three days   

489
00:22:22,966 --> 00:22:25,677
          for our fittings           
          and for our setups.        

490
00:22:31,725 --> 00:22:34,644
            hip-hop music          

491
00:22:34,686 --> 00:22:39,566
                                  

492
00:22:47,574 --> 00:22:51,203
   [Jesse] Listen, I was probably   
   the most talented                

493
00:22:51,244 --> 00:22:54,373
    bench rider                     
    at J.E.B. Stuart High School.   

494
00:22:54,414 --> 00:22:56,541
     [Dionne] Look at you now--     
     at the Super Bowl.             

495
00:22:56,583 --> 00:22:58,752
      [Jesse] Yeah.                 
      I'm gonna talk to Hamish.     

496
00:22:58,794 --> 00:22:59,961
      [Dionne]                      
      I'm glad you caught that.     

497
00:23:00,003 --> 00:23:01,380
              -Oh--ah!              
              -See?                 

498
00:23:01,421 --> 00:23:03,298
             [laughter]             

499
00:23:03,340 --> 00:23:04,758
       Because you said that.       

500
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,845
    His five-year-old is showing.   
    [laughs]                        

501
00:23:08,887 --> 00:23:12,224
          It's surreal that          
          we're actually here.       

502
00:23:12,265 --> 00:23:15,060
         It is one                   
         of the biggest stages.      

503
00:23:15,102 --> 00:23:18,063
         There's that pressure       
         of having to create         

504
00:23:18,105 --> 00:23:20,023
        14 minutes of perfection     

505
00:23:20,065 --> 00:23:23,193
         in front                    
         of 120 million people.      

506
00:23:23,235 --> 00:23:27,239
     So that's just the general      
     stress underlying everything.   

507
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,075
    This is probably the biggest    
    thing that I've done            

508
00:23:30,117 --> 00:23:34,162
      and the thing                 
      my mom is most proud of.      

509
00:23:34,204 --> 00:23:36,873
        Like, she's trying          
        to get all the scoop.       

510
00:23:36,915 --> 00:23:38,667
       You know, I'm like,          
       "I can't tell you, Mom.      

511
00:23:38,708 --> 00:23:40,085
     You'll put it on Facebook."

            #ProducerMom.           

513
00:23:42,129 --> 00:23:45,173
       And she puts that            
       with all of her posts.       

514
00:23:47,426 --> 00:23:49,094
 You need your helmet              
 to go on the stage.

            I got my hat.           

516
00:23:51,179 --> 00:23:52,097
       [producer] I don't know      
       how to work this.            

517
00:23:52,139 --> 00:23:54,224
   [Dionne] I'm confused by this.   

518
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:55,434
        [producer]                  
        So this is the front.       

519
00:23:55,475 --> 00:23:56,726
 Wait, what?                       

520
00:23:56,768 --> 00:23:58,645
      [Dionne]                      
      Erin, how does this work?     

521
00:23:58,687 --> 00:24:00,564
         What is this? Why?         

522
00:24:00,605 --> 00:24:02,649
           [Charm] I think          
           these are on backwards. 

523
00:24:02,691 --> 00:24:03,984
         -I think I did it.         
         -[laughter]

00:24:04,025 --> 00:24:05,277
            I didn't know           
            assembly was required. 

525
00:24:05,318 --> 00:24:07,070
                  What's going on? 

526
00:24:07,112 --> 00:24:09,865
    How are these people            
    gonna produce the Super Bowl    

527
00:24:09,906 --> 00:24:12,200
        when they can't even        
        produce the hat?            

528
00:24:12,242 --> 00:24:14,077
              [laughs]              

529
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:18,248
      As producers, we're working    
      hand in hand with The Weeknd   

530
00:24:18,290 --> 00:24:21,918
      and his team                  
      on all creative elements.     

531

      We're almost, like, the glue   

532
00:24:24,629 --> 00:24:26,715
       bringing all of the pieces    
       together.

      I thought you had it, Jesse, 

549
00:25:02,751 --> 00:25:04,461
      -I thought you had it.        
      -I thought I had it, too.

          it's gonna be great.       

560
00:25:25,065 --> 00:25:27,859
    [Dionne]   To have everybody      
     come together in this stadium   

561
00:25:27,901 --> 00:25:29,528
            to see the set,          

562
00:25:29,569 --> 00:25:33,657
    to have it all come together

            is already on hangers, 

567
00:25:53,260 --> 00:25:54,469

00:25:54,511 --> 00:25:55,637
             we're gonna design it 
             like a store.

          they would walk through.

        Make it really super easy.

   And we're probably gonna dress   
   about 400 people.                

572

        on the back                  

574

630
00:28:29,541 --> 00:28:31,042
         And we're                   
         leaning on them a lot       

631
00:28:31,084 --> 00:28:32,627
      because they are the people.   

632
00:28:32,669 --> 00:28:33,878
          [KP]                      
          Okay, everybody.          

633
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,588
         Yeah, break there.         
         Good.                      

634
00:28:35,630 --> 00:28:39,008
     You're gonna face midfield,    
     to the 50.                     

635
00:28:39,050 --> 00:28:41,720
     [Charm]   It's beyond            
      choreography at this point.    

636
00:28:41,761 --> 00:28:44,347
         I lean on KP to help        
         facilitate everything,      

637
00:28:44,389 --> 00:28:46,057
           'cause it's a lot.        

638
00:28:46,099 --> 00:28:48,727
       So KP and I are like...      

639
00:28:48,768 --> 00:28:50,729
        Can they be walking         
        in that part, or not?       

640
00:28:50,770 --> 00:28:51,646
 Oh, no, they can be walking.      

641
00:28:51,688 --> 00:28:56,025
 [hums "House of Balloons"]        

642
00:28:56,067 --> 00:28:58,069
       [KP]   My name's               
        Kristen Patterson Terry.     

643

            They call me KP.         

644
00:28:59,738 --> 00:29:02,949
     This is my 23rd halftime show. 

645
00:29:02,991 --> 00:29:05,452
     I was part of Super Bowl XXVI, 

646
00:29:05,493 --> 00:29:09,164
     as part of the choreography     
     and the field direction team.   

647
00:29:09,205 --> 00:29:11,166
           That really got me        
           super excited.            

648
00:29:11,207 --> 00:29:14,335
     And it just kind of snowballed 
     from there.                     

649
00:29:14,377 --> 00:29:17,589
       I'm responsible               
       for the cast on the field.    

650
00:29:17,630 --> 00:29:19,007
     Charm and I work to make sure   

651
00:29:19,048 --> 00:29:20,717
          that all the parts         
          integrate together.        

652
00:29:20,759 --> 00:29:22,093
     Blue stickers, go to your--    

653
00:29:22,135 --> 00:29:23,887
     now go to you                  
     "Blinding Lights" position,    

654
00:29:23,928 --> 00:29:25,388
          unless you have           
          a white sticker.          

655
00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:27,557
     Then don't move,               
     'cause you have a new spot.    

656
00:29:27,599 --> 00:29:30,643
      No one should be standing     
      on the hashmarks.             

657
00:29:30,685 --> 00:29:32,353
      They may not be pro dancers.   

658
00:29:32,395 --> 00:29:34,814
       They might not even think     
       they can dance,               

659
00:29:34,856 --> 00:29:37,192
           but when they come        
           into rehearsal,           

660
00:29:37,233 --> 00:29:41,029
         we'll teach them            
         what they don't know.       

661
00:29:41,070 --> 00:29:43,239
         The bottom line is,         
         do they want to create      

662
00:29:43,281 --> 00:29:45,325
       and be a part of something    
       that's seen by the world      

663
00:29:45,366 --> 00:29:47,368
     at halftime of the Super Bowl? 

664
00:29:47,410 --> 00:29:49,370
 Honestly, this spacing            
 super helped,                     

665
00:29:49,412 --> 00:29:51,206
 just seeing what                  
 it's gonna look like              

666
00:29:51,247 --> 00:29:53,291
 and how we can spread out         
 to make the look                  

667
00:29:53,333 --> 00:29:55,460
 that they want to get later.      

668
00:29:55,502 --> 00:29:57,879
 I see, like,                      
 maybe five, six guys              

669
00:29:57,921 --> 00:29:59,798
 that just--                       
 it's way over their head.         

670
00:29:59,839 --> 00:30:02,300
   [producer] If we teach everyone 
   the other choreography,          

671
00:30:02,342 --> 00:30:03,635
              we'll know for sure. 

672
00:30:03,676 --> 00:30:05,303
 [KP] So you're saying             
 we have a chance.                 

673
00:30:05,345 --> 00:30:06,805
             [laughter]             

674

       Every year presents itself    

675
00:30:08,348 --> 00:30:10,433
           with a new set            
           of circumstances.         

676
00:30:10,475 --> 00:30:13,311
            Once it sinks in         
            that it's COVID          

677
00:30:13,353 --> 00:30:15,647
          and they have to go        
          to mandatory testing       

678
00:30:15,688 --> 00:30:17,899
             and wear PPE,           

679
00:30:17,941 --> 00:30:20,485
        it's just harder to find     
        the groups of people         

680
00:30:20,527 --> 00:30:22,487
     that are willing to go through 
     all the extra steps             

681
00:30:22,529 --> 00:30:25,657
          that COVID layers on       
          to participation.          

682
00:30:25,698 --> 00:30:28,034
         That's gonna be             
         our biggest challenge.

716
00:31:58,583 --> 00:32:01,127
          the top bunk because      
          I used to be overweight. 

717
00:32:01,169 --> 00:32:03,129
            So he said              
            he don't want me to... 

718

00:33:31,384 --> 00:33:33,136
       So we come down, right?      

756
00:33:33,177 --> 00:33:36,014
         Got to do...touch.         

757
00:33:36,055 --> 00:33:37,515
 [grunts] Yeah.                    

758
00:33:37,557 --> 00:33:39,434
 And hold it.                      

759
00:33:39,475 --> 00:33:40,768
 Hold it.                          

760
00:33:40,810 --> 00:33:43,688
            exciting music         

761
00:33:43,730 --> 00:33:48,693
                                  

762
00:34:01,873 --> 00:34:03,541
 [Bruce] All right, let's go       
 ahead and one, two, three.        

763
00:34:03,583 --> 00:34:05,835
    -Going up to 30.                
    -[Jesse] Okay, you guys set?    

764
00:34:05,877 --> 00:34:07,253
                Yeah, I love that. 

765
00:34:10,173 --> 00:34:12,008
           We've been worried        
           about this fly gag        

766
00:34:12,050 --> 00:34:13,342
          from the beginning--       

767
00:34:13,384 --> 00:34:16,596
        where we could fly him,      
        the winds.                   

768
00:34:16,637 --> 00:34:18,389
            You do have fans         
            in the building.         

769
00:34:18,431 --> 00:34:21,225
     You don't want people jumping   
     on the wire and flying down,    

770
00:34:21,267 --> 00:34:23,686
       like they're Captain Jack.    

771
00:34:23,728 --> 00:34:25,188
      There's a lot of challenges,   

772
00:34:25,229 --> 00:34:26,481
          and it's, like,            
          one of those things        

773
00:34:26,522 --> 00:34:28,483
          where if we couldn't       
          get that right,            

774
00:34:28,524 --> 00:34:31,819
       we would probably have        
       to change the whole open.     

775
00:34:31,861 --> 00:34:34,197
 What we're learning               
 here is that in rehearsals,       

776
00:34:34,238 --> 00:34:38,409
 if we need to adjust              
 timing here and there,            

777
00:34:38,451 --> 00:34:41,746
 then it's about                   
 a five-minute adjustment.         

778
00:34:41,788 --> 00:34:43,247
           [person]   Okay.           

779
00:34:43,289 --> 00:34:45,416
       [Jesse]   Our production       
        designer, Bruce Rodgers,     

780
00:34:45,458 --> 00:34:47,710
       he's been doing this show     
       for many years.               

781
00:34:47,752 --> 00:34:49,420
           He's seen it all,         

782
00:34:49,462 --> 00:34:51,589
          so I know this is          
          gonna go off great.        

783
00:34:51,631 --> 00:34:54,592
    The highest that our person     
    can be, right at that X brace. 

784
00:34:54,634 --> 00:34:56,260
            [Jesse] Okay.           

785
00:34:56,302 --> 00:34:58,805
     [Bruce]                        
      This is my 15th Super Bowl.    

786
00:34:58,846 --> 00:35:02,308
     My first one was with Prince.   

787
00:35:02,350 --> 00:35:04,060
           The last time             
           we were in Tampa,         

788
00:35:04,102 --> 00:35:05,603
        we were with                 
        Bruce Springsteen here,      

789
00:35:05,645 --> 00:35:08,022
           so it brings back         
           a lot of memories.        

790
00:35:08,064 --> 00:35:09,482
        [cheers and applause]       

791
00:35:09,524 --> 00:35:11,734
      I grew up in Odessa, Texas,    

792
00:35:11,776 --> 00:35:14,362
      where "Friday Night Lights"    
      was written.                   

793
00:35:14,403 --> 00:35:17,782
           All my life,              
           football was king.        

794
00:35:17,824 --> 00:35:20,118
       To be able to be              
       the halftime show designer    

795
00:35:20,159 --> 00:35:23,204
     for this many years            
     means a lot, not only to me    

796
00:35:23,246 --> 00:35:26,457
      but my family and friends     
      back home in Texas.           

797
00:35:26,499 --> 00:35:27,792
    [producer]   Bruce, I don't know 
     if you want to speak            

798
00:35:27,834 --> 00:35:29,127
          to what exactly            
          the media's planning       

799
00:35:29,168 --> 00:35:30,545
       on doing around that area.    

800
00:35:30,586 --> 00:35:33,131
        Because of COVID,            
        there were already rules     

801
00:35:33,172 --> 00:35:36,551
          that were told to us       
          by the NFL.                

802
00:35:36,592 --> 00:35:39,804
        Some of the restrictions     
        included                     

803
00:35:39,846 --> 00:35:41,639
      not being out on the field.    

804
00:35:41,681 --> 00:35:44,308
       Every other halftime show     
       takes an army.                

805
00:35:44,350 --> 00:35:47,270
     You're building the set         
     in front of the live audience. 

806
00:35:47,311 --> 00:35:49,105
   And they were like,              
   "You got to do a halftime show   

807
00:35:49,147 --> 00:35:50,898
       that doesn't do that."       

808
00:35:50,940 --> 00:35:52,984
       The Weeknd's creative team    

809
00:35:53,025 --> 00:35:56,737
       had the Vegas look            
       that they were playing in.    

810
00:35:56,779 --> 00:36:01,159
     Es drew this beautiful          
     rendering of this choir setup. 

811
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,162
           She's a wonderful         
           opera designer.           

812
00:36:04,203 --> 00:36:06,372
      [Es] I had always thought     
      that we could start to,       

813
00:36:06,414 --> 00:36:08,916
     you know, reveal the lights    
     in a quite abstracted way,     

814
00:36:08,958 --> 00:36:10,877
       just the window lights,      
       so we get some energy.       

815
00:36:10,918 --> 00:36:12,378
          It's really just          
          the abstraction           

816
00:36:12,420 --> 00:36:14,172
   of the lights and the windows.   

817
00:36:14,213 --> 00:36:18,050
   [Bruce]   The concept was to take 
 us out of a Super Bowl world      

818
00:36:18,092 --> 00:36:20,678
      and put us in an Abel world.   

819
00:36:20,720 --> 00:36:22,263
             So we pivoted           

820
00:36:22,305 --> 00:36:25,057
       to build a different kind     
       of halftime show,             

821
00:36:25,099 --> 00:36:27,351
     one that doesn't get loaded in 
     in seven minutes                

822
00:36:27,393 --> 00:36:30,104
           but gets loaded in        
           in three weeks,           

823
00:36:30,146 --> 00:36:32,356
     like a massive outdoor opera.   

824
00:36:32,398 --> 00:36:35,484
             light music           

825
00:36:35,526 --> 00:36:40,615
                                  

826
00:36:40,656 --> 00:36:43,868
    We're on the north concourse    
    of the stadium.                 

827
00:36:43,910 --> 00:36:46,162
      So this gives you              
      a pretty good sense of scale   

828
00:36:46,204 --> 00:36:48,706
      of what we're trying to do.    

829
00:36:48,748 --> 00:36:52,043
         That's an LED screen.       

830
00:36:52,084 --> 00:36:54,712
         We'll feed in content       
         that almost looks like      

831
00:36:54,754 --> 00:36:58,341
      an infinite run of the         
      different tiers of scenery.    

832
00:36:58,382 --> 00:37:00,968
     It'll change with the mood     
     of the song                    

833
00:37:01,010 --> 00:37:04,263
      and create just that          
      final layer of surfacing.     

834
00:37:04,305 --> 00:37:06,015
        [indistinct chatter]        

835
00:37:06,057 --> 00:37:09,685
         That set piece alone        
         weighs 100,000 pounds.      

836
00:37:09,727 --> 00:37:11,562
           It'll be populated        

837
00:37:11,604 --> 00:37:14,857
      with about 75 choir members.   

838
00:37:14,899 --> 00:37:16,692
   Your minds are gonna be blown,   

839
00:37:16,734 --> 00:37:20,446
   but the set splits right here,   
   right down the middle.           

840
00:37:20,488 --> 00:37:24,367
      So it's designed to move      
      smoothly and quickly.         

841
00:37:24,408 --> 00:37:27,787
         Underneath that is         
         the infinity room.         

842
00:37:27,828 --> 00:37:30,665
   So this is 50 percent complete   
   right now,                       

843
00:37:30,706 --> 00:37:32,416
          but when it's all         
          said and done,            

844
00:37:32,458 --> 00:37:36,254
   there's probably about 7,000     
   light bulbs that'll be active,   

845
00:37:36,295 --> 00:37:39,382
     with sign work                 
     and all that sort of thing.    

846
00:37:39,423 --> 00:37:41,926
         This infinity room          
         is gonna be super cool      

847
00:37:41,968 --> 00:37:44,679
       because people in TV land     
       are gonna be like,            

848
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:46,931
        "Wait, where did we go?"     

849
00:37:50,643 --> 00:37:53,187
        There's so much at stake     

850
00:37:53,229 --> 00:37:57,942
         to pull off as perfect      
         of a show as possible,      

851
00:37:57,984 --> 00:38:00,278
    That's the biggest challenge.   

852
00:38:00,319 --> 00:38:03,239
            dramatic music         

853
00:38:03,281 --> 00:38:08,244
                                  

854
00:38:14,625 --> 00:38:16,627
              Yes, sir.             

855
00:38:16,669 --> 00:38:17,878
            Doing great.            

856
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,089
 Let's take a look.                
 What's your waist?                

857
00:38:20,131 --> 00:38:22,383
           -Oh, 32.                 
           -[JC] 32? Okay.          

858
00:38:22,425 --> 00:38:25,469
 Let's take a look at...           
 maybe this one.                   

859
00:38:25,511 --> 00:38:26,762
 So are you excited                
 about Super Bowl?                 

860
00:38:26,804 --> 00:38:28,222
     [Divine] Oh, most definitely. 

861
00:38:28,264 --> 00:38:29,724
         It's a once-in-a-lifetime 
         chance--like, come on.     

862
00:38:29,765 --> 00:38:31,392
 [JC] Yeah, you guys gonna         
 be out there on the field.        

863
00:38:31,434 --> 00:38:33,394
   -[Divine] Exactly.               
   -[JC] It's gonna be good times. 

864
00:38:33,436 --> 00:38:35,396
         [Divine] I'ma tell         
         my kids' kids about this. 

865
00:38:35,438 --> 00:38:38,107
   -[laughter]                      
   -[Divine] They don't even know. 

866
00:38:38,149 --> 00:38:40,192
    [JC] All right, so I'm gonna    
    go ahead and give you these.    

867
00:38:40,234 --> 00:38:41,402
      -[Divine] Yes, sir.           
      -[JC] The opening's here.     

868
00:38:41,444 --> 00:38:44,113
        So hang your clothes        
        over on that side.          

869
00:38:44,155 --> 00:38:45,948
               [Lila] You're good. 
               So you're done.      

870
00:38:45,990 --> 00:38:46,991
   -You feel comfortable in this?   
   -Yes, ma'am.                     

871
00:38:47,033 --> 00:38:49,493
 Hands down.                       

872
00:38:49,535 --> 00:38:51,162
   [Lila] Can I see                 
   a little choreo, just for fun?   

873
00:38:51,203 --> 00:38:53,414
      -A little choreo?             
      -Let's see what you got.      

874
00:38:53,456 --> 00:38:56,000
          -[Lila] Ooh! Hey.         
          -[laughs]                 

875
00:38:56,042 --> 00:38:57,668
       Chris, what nationality      
       are you?                     

876
00:38:57,710 --> 00:38:59,337
     -[Chris] I'm Puerto Rican.     
     -I'm Puerto Rican!             

877
00:38:59,378 --> 00:39:00,880
        [Chris]                     
        Are you really? Hey!        

878
00:39:00,921 --> 00:39:02,965
              [laughs]              

879
00:39:03,007 --> 00:39:05,718
         [Lila]   Today we have       
          all of our dancers.        

880
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,803
           We're fitting them        
           super quick,              

881
00:39:07,845 --> 00:39:10,264
       making sure that they are     
       tailored and precise          

882
00:39:10,306 --> 00:39:12,308
          and getting them out       
          for rehearsals.            

883
00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:13,934
 I'm gonna pin it                  
 in the back for you.              

884
00:39:13,976 --> 00:39:16,103
          It's really, really        
          challenging                

885
00:39:16,145 --> 00:39:19,023
           to do what we do,         

886
00:39:19,065 --> 00:39:22,985
        to do it quickly,            
        efficiently, and safely.     

887
00:39:23,027 --> 00:39:25,321
      -JC.                          
      -Hey, what you got here?      

888
00:39:25,363 --> 00:39:27,323
 I think I got something special   
 in these boxes.                   

889
00:39:27,365 --> 00:39:29,867
                What's in the box? 

890
00:39:29,909 --> 00:39:31,494
                  Bless your soul! 
                  They made it.     

891
00:39:31,535 --> 00:39:34,288
      -[Lila] The right shoes!      
      -Yes, the right shoes!        

892
00:39:34,330 --> 00:39:37,166
         [Lila]   The shoes,          
          they were delivered,       

893
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:40,169
      and we can move on             
      to something more exciting.    

894
00:39:40,211 --> 00:39:43,172
                             Jaji. 

895
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:45,674
   Okay, so we have another snafu. 

896
00:39:45,716 --> 00:39:48,677
     The Weeknd wants to add black 
     jackets into the look now,     

897
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:52,515
     so we need to get 130 jackets 
     by tomorrow.                   

898
00:39:52,556 --> 00:39:56,685
    He just wants this blingy,      
    you know, classic tuxedo look. 

899
00:39:56,727 --> 00:39:58,396
         -[designer] Right.         
         -We can do it.             

900
00:39:58,437 --> 00:39:59,855
     It's gonna be a lot easier     

901
00:39:59,897 --> 00:40:02,191
       to find them                 
       opposed to making them,      

902
00:40:02,233 --> 00:40:04,402
       because making them          
       is gonna take a while.       

903
00:40:04,443 --> 00:40:05,694
            [Lila] I mean,          
            I have a uniform place 

904
00:40:05,736 --> 00:40:07,154
       that can get us              
       the black jackets tomorrow. 

905
00:40:07,196 --> 00:40:09,365
              Or we can source      
              as many as we can... 

906
00:40:09,407 --> 00:40:10,699
      -And then do the rest.        
      -[Lila] ...and let's say      

907
00:40:10,741 --> 00:40:12,576
           we only have 20 left     
           or something like that. 

908
00:40:12,618 --> 00:40:14,412
          That works. Yeah.         

909
00:40:14,453 --> 00:40:15,913
         [Lila] It could be         
         different vendors.         

910
00:40:15,955 --> 00:40:18,082
    They could be really similar.   

911
00:40:18,124 --> 00:40:21,168
    But what he's looking for is    
    kind of like a solid here       

912
00:40:21,210 --> 00:40:23,087
      and the sequins in front      
      in black.                     

913
00:40:23,129 --> 00:40:25,256
 [Jaji] Jacket that we're gonna    
 get is gonna be plain black.      

914
00:40:25,297 --> 00:40:26,882
 So all you got to do is come,     

915
00:40:26,924 --> 00:40:29,093
 spray the adhesive                
 on there--bum.                    

916
00:40:29,135 --> 00:40:31,262
       And then we sew it through, 
       and we close it.             

917
00:40:31,303 --> 00:40:32,721
                 All right. Got it. 

918
00:40:32,763 --> 00:40:34,807
        So it's, like,              
        the embroidery blazer       

919
00:40:34,849 --> 00:40:37,768
      with, like, satin on it.      

920
00:40:37,810 --> 00:40:39,395
        [automated voice]           
         To better assist you,       

921
00:40:39,437 --> 00:40:41,814
     please select from one          
     of the following option menus. 

922
00:40:41,856 --> 00:40:44,066
      Para español, oprima nueve.    

923
00:40:44,108 --> 00:40:46,652
    What time do you close today?   

924
00:40:46,694 --> 00:40:50,114
     Is there some way that we can   
     get, like, a wholesale rate?    

925
00:40:50,156 --> 00:40:52,783
           [line trilling]          

926
00:40:52,825 --> 00:40:56,120
                                  

927
00:40:56,162 --> 00:40:58,622
 Hi. How are you?                  

928
00:40:58,664 --> 00:40:59,832
      [representative]   Good.        
       How can we help you today?    

929
00:40:59,874 --> 00:41:02,126
 [Lila]                            
 I need--it's 120 jackets          

930
00:41:02,168 --> 00:41:04,044
 sent overnight, if possible.      

931
00:41:04,086 --> 00:41:05,629
 Can I give you the SKU number     
 to see if you have it in stock?   

932
00:41:05,671 --> 00:41:08,799
           [line trilling]          

933
00:41:08,841 --> 00:41:11,802
       We were thinking of,          
       like, 50 medium, 50 large,    

934
00:41:11,844 --> 00:41:13,471
          and 20 extra-large.        

935
00:41:13,512 --> 00:41:15,639
           [line trilling]          

936
00:41:15,681 --> 00:41:16,974
           How do we get             
           a wholesale price         

937
00:41:17,016 --> 00:41:19,143
       if you guys already          
       have it marked at 135?       

938
00:41:19,185 --> 00:41:21,896
      That's real multitasking.     
      Did you see that?             

939
00:41:21,937 --> 00:41:23,230
 [Jesse]                           
 So they start in the robes,       

940
00:41:23,272 --> 00:41:24,440
 and then they all go              
 to the jackets?                   

941
00:41:24,482 --> 00:41:25,774
          They start in the robes. 

942
00:41:25,816 --> 00:41:26,817
        They have the black jacket 
        underneath.                 

943
00:41:26,859 --> 00:41:28,277
              They have to take     
              the black jacket off 

944
00:41:28,319 --> 00:41:29,653
                and then end up     
                in the red jacket. 

945
00:41:29,695 --> 00:41:30,905
   So they have three changes now. 

946
00:41:30,946 --> 00:41:33,491
    -Ugh.                           
    -That's kind of where we are.   

947
00:41:33,532 --> 00:41:34,950
 The place                         
 that sold you the first 14        

948
00:41:34,992 --> 00:41:36,327
       -can't make it happen?       
       -Nope.                       

949
00:41:36,368 --> 00:41:38,370
    -Impossible.                    
    -[Jesse] How's it impossible?   

950
00:41:38,412 --> 00:41:40,789
         They don't have, like,     
         a closet full of sequins. 

951
00:41:40,831 --> 00:41:42,458
           People don't wear        
           those things like that. 

952
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:44,335
      I mean, we're just gonna see 
      what we can find              

953
00:41:44,376 --> 00:41:45,961
         and try and make it work, 
         you know?                  

954
00:41:46,003 --> 00:41:47,838
 [Jesse]                           
 May the Force be with you.        

955
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:49,215
      -[laughs]                     
      -You can make it happen.      

956
00:41:49,256 --> 00:41:51,550
         Oh, and KP asked me        
         to help with the casting. 

957
00:41:51,592 --> 00:41:53,010
 You're talking                    
 about volunteers.                 

958
00:41:53,052 --> 00:41:54,678
        [Lila] Volunteers,          
        they don't even have close 

959
00:41:54,720 --> 00:41:56,305
     -to the numbers they need.     
     -[Jesse] All right.            

960
00:41:56,347 --> 00:41:58,849
 Let's hit KP                      
 and see where she's at with it.   

961
00:41:58,891 --> 00:42:01,477
                                  

962
00:42:01,519 --> 00:42:06,148
         [Lila]   Our goal was        
          to do 300-plus Abels       

963
00:42:06,190 --> 00:42:07,358
          for a grand finale.        

964
00:42:07,399 --> 00:42:09,693
         Like, an army of him.       

965
00:42:09,735 --> 00:42:12,029
         But with COVID,            
         we've lost people.         

966
00:42:12,071 --> 00:42:13,864
    They're just not showing up.    

967
00:42:13,906 --> 00:42:15,533
          And then some people       
          dropped out                

968
00:42:15,574 --> 00:42:17,826
       because they actually want    
       to see the game.              

969
00:42:17,868 --> 00:42:19,537
        -How's it going?            
        -Great. How are you?        

970
00:42:19,578 --> 00:42:22,206
      -Good. Nice to meet you.      
      -Hey.                         

971
00:42:22,248 --> 00:42:25,376
 So casting--                      
 Lila thinks we're in trouble.     

972
00:42:25,417 --> 00:42:27,211
                          [laughs] 

973
00:42:27,253 --> 00:42:30,172
    [KP] As quick as we get people 
    in, people would drop out...    

974
00:42:30,214 --> 00:42:32,049
    -Okay.                          
    -...because it all was, like,   

975
00:42:32,091 --> 00:42:33,717
         in the same time zone of, 

976
00:42:33,759 --> 00:42:35,511
     "Oh, well, wait a minute,      
     I don't get to watch the game 

977
00:42:35,553 --> 00:42:37,388
   -if I'm in the halftime show?"   
   -Got it.                         

978
00:42:37,429 --> 00:42:39,056
                  So you don't see 
                  any of the game. 

979
00:42:39,098 --> 00:42:40,766
         -It's a hard sell.         
         -Yeah.                     

980
00:42:40,808 --> 00:42:42,768
     [KP] And then we had a couple 
     people come through testing    

981
00:42:42,810 --> 00:42:45,563
              and test positive,    
              so they're out, too. 

982
00:42:45,604 --> 00:42:48,440
      So we're gonna have this      
      as a cycle now till the end. 

983
00:42:48,482 --> 00:42:49,900
 [Jesse] If somebody               
 tests positive--                  

984
00:42:49,942 --> 00:42:51,694
      -[KP] They're just out.       
      -They're just out? Okay.      

985
00:42:51,735 --> 00:42:53,404
         [Lila] I'm with it.        
         I'm good with that.        

986
00:42:53,445 --> 00:42:56,282
         [KP] Yeah. All right.      
         Let's keep on keeping on. 

987
00:43:01,704 --> 00:43:02,997
     [choreographer]                
      Same place, now at the top.    

988
00:43:03,038 --> 00:43:04,873
        But the top is 12,          
        and we only need 11,        

989
00:43:04,915 --> 00:43:06,584
      so this guy, we'll leave.     

990
00:43:06,625 --> 00:43:08,294
    [Charm] Back row is the choir. 

991
00:43:08,335 --> 00:43:10,045
   [choreographer] Well, these two 
   are the COVID replacements.      

992
00:43:10,087 --> 00:43:11,213
         I don't have               
         their photos there.        

993
00:43:11,255 --> 00:43:12,423
                 Oh, right, right. 

994
00:43:12,464 --> 00:43:13,632
         The last backups           
         that just came in.         

995
00:43:13,674 --> 00:43:15,509
              People we can't move 
              are the violins.      

996
00:43:15,551 --> 00:43:17,428
    -[choreographer] Right.         
    -We can't move the choir boy.   

997
00:43:17,469 --> 00:43:19,346
      All the dancers just got in. 

998
00:43:19,388 --> 00:43:21,015
      They've never been together. 

999
00:43:21,056 --> 00:43:22,600
          And before everyone gets 
          on the flight,            

1000
00:43:22,641 --> 00:43:23,934
      everyone has to take a test. 

1001
00:43:23,976 --> 00:43:26,020
   Two of my guys tested positive, 

1002
00:43:26,061 --> 00:43:27,271
              so they couldn't get 
              on their flight,      

1003
00:43:27,313 --> 00:43:30,232
                 so then we had     
                 to replace with-- 

1004
00:43:30,274 --> 00:43:32,109
            So now this is another 
            structure change        

1005
00:43:32,151 --> 00:43:34,361
       that we're doing,            
       and these people don't know 

1006
00:43:34,403 --> 00:43:36,447
          the choreography at all. 

1007
00:43:36,488 --> 00:43:37,906
                -Yay.               
                -Yay.               

1008
00:43:37,948 --> 00:43:40,451
    -[laughter]                     
     -Guys, it's starting to hit me 

1009
00:43:40,492 --> 00:43:42,911
           that it's a lot of shit 
           that needs to get done. 

1010
00:43:42,953 --> 00:43:44,455
        Let me see if I have this, 
        a violin rehearsal.         

1011
00:43:44,496 --> 00:43:47,499
          [violins playing]         

1012
00:43:47,541 --> 00:43:50,002
                                  

1013
00:43:50,044 --> 00:43:51,962
   [choreographer]                  
   They're dancers, so it's like,   

1014
00:43:52,004 --> 00:43:54,298
     how do you teacher dancers     
     not to look like dancers       

1015
00:43:54,340 --> 00:43:57,134
     and actually                   
     look like musicians, so...     

1016
00:43:57,176 --> 00:43:59,136
                [Charm] We brought 
                two instructors in 

1017
00:43:59,178 --> 00:44:01,639
   to help the guys properly play. 

1018
00:44:03,891 --> 00:44:05,392
    We're doing what we got to do. 

1019
00:44:05,434 --> 00:44:08,103
             You know, we're doing 
             what we have to do.    

1020
00:44:08,145 --> 00:44:09,855
                     Here they go. 

1021
00:44:09,897 --> 00:44:12,941
         We have to have rehearsal 
         with the choir.            

1022
00:44:12,983 --> 00:44:16,695
       I have to have rehearsal     
       with my infinity room crew. 

1023
00:44:16,737 --> 00:44:18,947
          I have to have rehearsal 
          in general.               

1024
00:44:18,989 --> 00:44:21,241
          We're gonna get it done, 
          damn it!                  

1025
00:44:21,283 --> 00:44:22,743
                          Damn it. 

1026
00:44:22,785 --> 00:44:26,163
                      [vocalizing] 

1027
00:44:26,205 --> 00:44:29,625
      [Abel]    You make it look     
       like it's magic              

1028
00:44:29,667 --> 00:44:31,794
         'Cause I see nobody       

1029
00:44:31,835 --> 00:44:35,464
       Nobody but you, you, you    

1030
00:44:35,506 --> 00:44:37,591
          I'm never confused       

1031
00:44:37,633 --> 00:44:40,177
           Here we go.              
           Bounce. Bounce.          

1032
00:44:40,219 --> 00:44:43,806
         [Abel]    I'm so used       
          to being used             

1033
00:44:43,847 --> 00:44:47,351
        So I love                   
       when you call unexpected     

1034
00:44:47,393 --> 00:44:49,186
               My baby             

1035
00:44:49,228 --> 00:44:51,188
        'Cause I hate when...      

1036
00:44:51,230 --> 00:44:53,107
      [Charm] One, two, three.      
      One, two, three.              

1037
00:44:53,148 --> 00:44:54,858
          One, two, three.          

1038
00:44:54,900 --> 00:44:58,028
        [Abel]                      
          You, you, you, you       

1039
00:44:58,070 --> 00:44:59,697
   So let's put the violin there.   

1040
00:44:59,738 --> 00:45:01,824
                                  

1041
00:45:01,865 --> 00:45:03,450
               Up. Up.              

1042
00:45:03,492 --> 00:45:05,994
         Nice, guys. Up. Up.        

1043
00:45:13,961 --> 00:45:15,170
             [Jesse]                
             Here we go.            

1044
00:45:23,303 --> 00:45:26,098
     [Jesse]   There's anxiety        
      about our first walkthrough    

1045
00:45:26,140 --> 00:45:29,643
      with La Mar and Alex           
      and the whole creative team.   

1046
00:45:29,685 --> 00:45:31,729
           Yes, they've seen         
           iPhone video.             

1047
00:45:31,770 --> 00:45:33,480
        They've seen renderings,     
        drawings,                    

1048
00:45:33,522 --> 00:45:37,359
      but what is their reaction     
      when they walk on the stage?   

1049
00:45:37,401 --> 00:45:40,904
         'Cause they're              
         basically Abel's eyes.      

1050
00:45:40,946 --> 00:45:42,072
 [Bruce] How are you?              

1051
00:45:42,114 --> 00:45:46,076
            dramatic music         

1052
00:45:46,118 --> 00:45:48,746
        We're basically 50 feet      
        above Planet Earth.          

1053
00:45:48,787 --> 00:45:49,830
          [Alex]   The floor.         

1054
00:45:49,872 --> 00:45:51,582
                              Man. 

1055
00:45:51,623 --> 00:45:52,916
      [Jesse]   This is definitely    
       gonna feel                    

1056
00:45:52,958 --> 00:45:54,752
       -like rock star moment.      
       -[Alex] Yeah.                

1057
00:45:54,793 --> 00:45:56,420
           In the building--        
           I mean, in the stadium, 

1058
00:45:56,462 --> 00:45:58,255
                but on TV as well. 

1059
00:45:58,297 --> 00:45:59,590
        [La Mar]   It's crazy.        

1060
00:45:59,631 --> 00:46:02,217
           I'm just astounded        
           by the scale.             

1061
00:46:02,259 --> 00:46:05,095
         It's way more massive       
         than I imagined.            

1062
00:46:05,137 --> 00:46:06,638
     Feels really, really good.     

1063
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,558
            hopeful music          

1064
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:13,228
                                  

1065
00:46:13,270 --> 00:46:15,063
       [Jesse] La Mar's here,       
       and he likes the set.        

1066
00:46:15,105 --> 00:46:17,149
          So there you go.          

1067
00:46:17,191 --> 00:46:21,612
     Is Abel landing tonight        
     at 10:30, or is it earlier?    

1068
00:46:21,653 --> 00:46:23,030
             Hey, Bruce.            

1069
00:46:23,071 --> 00:46:26,200
    What's the best way into the    
    infinity room?                  

1070
00:46:26,241 --> 00:46:31,121
                                  

1071
00:46:35,584 --> 00:46:38,796
     When The Weeknd walks in here, 
     I need him to feel comfortable 

1072
00:46:38,837 --> 00:46:41,799
     that this is                    
     what we've been talking about   

1073
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:43,801
          and working on             
          for so many months.        

1074
00:46:43,842 --> 00:46:45,594
            What up, bro?           

1075
00:46:45,636 --> 00:46:46,762
               Come on, Abel.       
               We'll check it out. 

1076
00:46:46,804 --> 00:46:48,096
 That's the break.                 

1077
00:46:48,138 --> 00:46:49,723
 That's the center line            
 of the set.                       

1078
00:46:49,765 --> 00:46:51,058
        -So this--                  
        -Gonna open up here?        

1079
00:46:51,099 --> 00:46:53,477
 This whole thing goes,            
 and that goes.                    

1080
00:46:53,519 --> 00:46:56,605
 [Jesse] So we did talk about--    
 there's, like, a step.            

1081
00:46:56,647 --> 00:47:00,567
 I think it's between the T        
 and the Empire State Building.    

1082
00:47:00,609 --> 00:47:04,321
 On "Earned It,"                   
 maybe you do it there.            

1083
00:47:04,363 --> 00:47:06,073
 During that string section,       

1084
00:47:06,114 --> 00:47:10,327
 it's enough                       
 time for you to sneak down.       

1085
00:47:10,369 --> 00:47:12,287
    So, basically, you would have   
    to walk three times.            

1086
00:47:12,329 --> 00:47:14,790
      And it just gives us          
      three different positions     

1087
00:47:14,832 --> 00:47:16,959
   and three different good angles 
   and backgrounds.                 

1088
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,669
 [Abel] I don't want to be,        
 like, singing,                    

1089
00:47:18,710 --> 00:47:19,753
     -like, while I'm moving...     
     -[Hamish] Right.               

1090
00:47:19,795 --> 00:47:21,255
        ...especially               
        on a song like that.        

1091
00:47:21,296 --> 00:47:22,589
    Like, I feel like I'm covered   
    for most of it anyway.          

1092
00:47:22,631 --> 00:47:23,966
      [Hamish] Yeah, I get it.      
      I get it.                     

1093
00:47:24,007 --> 00:47:25,759
        [Jesse] Yeah, like,         
        I think you try it Monday, 

1094
00:47:25,801 --> 00:47:27,219
            and if it feels weird, 

1095
00:47:27,261 --> 00:47:29,096
              then we'll just pick 
              a stationary spot.    

1096
00:47:29,137 --> 00:47:30,722
         [Abel] Can I see           
         "Save Your Tears,"         

1097
00:47:30,764 --> 00:47:32,266
          like, from here?          

1098
00:47:32,307 --> 00:47:34,977
    -[Charm] Mm-hmm.                
    -["Save Your Tears" playing]    

1099
00:47:35,018 --> 00:47:36,603
     [Hamish] The rest of it        
     feels good, though, right?     

1100
00:47:36,645 --> 00:47:38,522
           -[Abel] Yeah.            
           -[Charm] Here?           

1101
00:47:38,564 --> 00:47:40,983
      [Jesse] Charm, go back up     
      to the very top.              

1102
00:47:41,024 --> 00:47:43,026
                                 

1103
00:47:43,068 --> 00:47:47,698
   Yeah. And look at that position 
   that we were saying.             

1104
00:47:47,739 --> 00:47:50,033
           Since September,          
           it's been kind of         

1105
00:47:50,075 --> 00:47:53,704
       a clinical, scientific way    
       of getting this done,         

1106
00:47:53,745 --> 00:47:56,123
        and now it's, like,          
        you feel the chemistry.      

1107
00:47:56,164 --> 00:47:58,458
          You hear the music.        

1108
00:47:58,500 --> 00:48:00,544
     Everybody's spitballing ideas, 

1109
00:48:00,586 --> 00:48:04,339
        and this is when it goes     
        from good to great.          

1110
00:48:04,381 --> 00:48:08,427
       [Abel]    Save your tears     
        for another day             

1111
00:48:08,468 --> 00:48:11,471
     [Jesse] So you could do it     
     right there.                   

1112
00:48:11,513 --> 00:48:13,390
 [Abel] Okay.                      

1113
00:48:18,312 --> 00:48:20,606
     [Jesse] I woke up at seven.    

1114
00:48:20,647 --> 00:48:23,150
       And so I've been going       
       ever since.                  

1115
00:48:23,191 --> 00:48:25,819
 Wow, that's--that's               
 a strong 12 hours.                

1116
00:48:25,861 --> 00:48:27,195
               I know.              

1117
00:48:27,237 --> 00:48:30,532
      At my age, you know,          
      usually I would have had,     

1118
00:48:30,574 --> 00:48:33,368
     you know, dinner and--         
     dinner with Jell-O at four.    

1119
00:48:33,410 --> 00:48:36,371
 [laughing]                        
 I got nothing.                    

1120
00:48:36,413 --> 00:48:38,457
              soft music           

1121
00:48:38,498 --> 00:48:41,043
     [Jesse]   Being executive        
      producer tends to be the one   

1122
00:48:41,084 --> 00:48:44,755
          kind of responsible        
          for everything.            

1123
00:48:44,796 --> 00:48:47,841
      To me,                         
      it's like not being afraid.    

1124
00:48:47,883 --> 00:48:50,218
                                  

1125
00:48:50,260 --> 00:48:51,595
       You have to be that person    
       that's willing                

1126
00:48:51,637 --> 00:48:54,598
         to dig into the weeds.      

1127
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:55,891
      My leadership philosophy      

1128
00:48:55,933 --> 00:48:57,601
      is something                  
      I've developed over time.     

1129
00:48:57,643 --> 00:49:00,854
     I think the core of it is,     

1130
00:49:00,896 --> 00:49:04,608
    I'm willing to work as hard     
    or harder than anybody else.    

1131
00:49:04,650 --> 00:49:06,777
       Sometimes it's motivation.    

1132
00:49:06,818 --> 00:49:10,030
     Sometimes it's pushing people. 

1133
00:49:10,072 --> 00:49:12,741
      You know, every day there's    
      always a different problem.    

1134
00:49:12,783 --> 00:49:15,035
          I think just be able       
          to think quickly           

1135
00:49:15,077 --> 00:49:17,037
        and always remain calm.      

1136
00:49:17,079 --> 00:49:21,959
                                  

1137
00:49:24,419 --> 00:49:27,631
     [Abel]                         
       I'm running out of time     

1138
00:49:27,673 --> 00:49:30,092
        'Cause I can see the sun    
       light up the sky             

1139
00:49:30,133 --> 00:49:32,844
           So I hit the road        
          in overdrive              

1140
00:49:32,886 --> 00:49:36,348
               Baby, oh            

1141
00:49:36,390 --> 00:49:39,518
      The city's cold and empty    

1142
00:49:39,559 --> 00:49:42,062
            No one's around         
           to judge me              

1143
00:49:42,104 --> 00:49:46,566
          I can't see clearly       
         when you're gone           

1144
00:49:46,608 --> 00:49:50,445
           And I said, ooh         

1145
00:49:50,487 --> 00:49:53,407
      I'm blinded by the lights    

1146
00:49:53,448 --> 00:49:55,575
     [Joshua]                       
      I got a photographic memory.   

1147
00:49:55,617 --> 00:49:58,996
        I have                       
        high-functioning autism.     

1148
00:49:59,037 --> 00:50:02,791
    I can remember all the moves    
    from rehearsal                  

1149
00:50:02,833 --> 00:50:05,919
    without looking at the video.   

1150
00:50:05,961 --> 00:50:09,172
       This is the video             
       that got me to participate    

1151
00:50:09,214 --> 00:50:11,174
           in the Super Bowl.        

1152
00:50:11,216 --> 00:50:13,010
        One or two weeks later,      
        that's when they said        

1153
00:50:13,051 --> 00:50:15,554
       I was part of the show.      

1154
00:50:20,684 --> 00:50:24,855
          As you can see,           
          I love sneakers.          

1155
00:50:24,896 --> 00:50:28,316
      I have so many sneakers,      
      I just lose count.            

1156
00:50:28,358 --> 00:50:31,862
     My most favorite would have    
     to be my Air Force Ones.       

1157
00:50:31,903 --> 00:50:33,989
     There's still                  
     some sneakers behind there     

1158
00:50:34,031 --> 00:50:35,490
       that you haven't seen.       

1159
00:50:35,532 --> 00:50:38,201
        And he has the whole        
        continuum here,             

1160
00:50:38,243 --> 00:50:42,164
     from the time he was three     
     to the time he graduated,      

1161
00:50:42,205 --> 00:50:45,542
   all the track teams, the little 
   girlfriends, the whole nine.     

1162
00:50:45,584 --> 00:50:47,002
         [Joshua] They're actually 
         not my girlfriends.        

1163
00:50:47,044 --> 00:50:48,420
             These are my friends. 

1164
00:50:48,462 --> 00:50:50,714
   But I did have some girlfriends 
   back in the day.                 

1165
00:50:50,756 --> 00:50:53,925
      So, as my mom mentioned,      
      this is me when I was three. 

1166
00:50:53,967 --> 00:50:55,552
       [Mary Ann]                   
        He was first determined      

1167
00:50:55,594 --> 00:50:58,221
          to have a disability       
          at age two.                

1168
00:50:58,263 --> 00:51:02,059
         I jumped on it              
         right out of the gate.      

1169
00:51:02,100 --> 00:51:04,644
         It was a long journey.      

1170
00:51:04,686 --> 00:51:08,231
       But by the time he got       
       in 11th or 12th grade,       

1171
00:51:08,273 --> 00:51:10,901
          he was mastering          
          all of his tests.         

1172
00:51:10,942 --> 00:51:12,819
                                  

1173
00:51:12,861 --> 00:51:16,865
     If anybody is a mother and you 
     got a child with a disability, 

1174
00:51:16,907 --> 00:51:19,076
       when you see them thrive,     

1175
00:51:19,117 --> 00:51:22,537
      it's like moving mountains.    

1176
00:51:22,579 --> 00:51:26,249
    Every time he reaches a         
    milestone or climbs a mountain 

1177
00:51:26,291 --> 00:51:30,212
     or move a mountain, you know, 
     it brings tears to my eyes.    

1178
00:51:30,253 --> 00:51:33,090
           inspiring music         

1179
00:51:33,131 --> 00:51:38,261
                                  

1180
00:51:38,303 --> 00:51:40,889
           He showed me              
           his dance routine.        

1181
00:51:40,931 --> 00:51:43,225
          I already know             
          he's a good dancer,        

1182
00:51:43,266 --> 00:51:45,602
       but I didn't know             
       he could dance like that!     

1183
00:51:45,644 --> 00:51:49,773
                                  

1184
00:51:49,815 --> 00:51:51,775
          I'm so proud of him.       

1185
00:51:51,817 --> 00:51:53,985
      I always look forward to him   
      doing great things.            

1186
00:51:54,027 --> 00:51:57,114
                                  

1187
00:51:57,155 --> 00:52:00,659
     [Joshua]   Just wanted to see    
      what I can do.                 

1188
00:52:00,700 --> 00:52:02,577
         I'm ready to show out.      

1189
00:52:02,619 --> 00:52:05,038
      I'm doing it for my city...    

1190
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:09,584
     the Tampa Bay 813 all the way. 

1191
00:52:09,626 --> 00:52:13,088
       Just making my mama proud.    

1192
00:52:13,130 --> 00:52:16,466
 She's been, like, my biggest      
 cheerleader since birth,          

1193
00:52:16,508 --> 00:52:20,929
 and I'm still happy               
 that she's still by my side.      

1194
00:52:20,971 --> 00:52:25,100
 I guess you could say I can       
 sometimes be a mama's boy, too.   

1195
00:52:25,142 --> 00:52:27,144
               Yeah.                
               That's mama's baby. 

1196
00:52:27,185 --> 00:52:29,896
        He will always be my baby. 

1197
00:52:29,938 --> 00:52:31,148
 Yeah. Yeah.                       

1198
00:52:31,189 --> 00:52:36,153
                                  

1199
00:52:37,779 --> 00:52:40,323
       [Charm]                      
        Five, six, seven, eight!     

1200
00:52:40,365 --> 00:52:43,285
     ["Blinding Lights" playing]    

1201
00:52:43,326 --> 00:52:48,248
                                 

1202
00:52:50,375 --> 00:52:53,461
     [Abel]                         
       I've been tryin' to call    

1203
00:52:53,503 --> 00:52:56,173
          I've been on my own       
         for long enough            

1204
00:52:56,214 --> 00:52:59,801
         Maybe you can show me      
        how to love, maybe          

1205
00:52:59,843 --> 00:53:01,678
                                 

1206
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:03,305
          I'm going                 
         through withdrawals        

1207
00:53:03,346 --> 00:53:04,973
        [KP] You have to be         
        in one, single line.        

1208
00:53:05,015 --> 00:53:07,392
          One, single line.         
          There you go.             

1209
00:53:07,434 --> 00:53:10,103
     [Abel]    You can turn me on    
      with just a touch             

1210
00:53:10,145 --> 00:53:12,939
                 Baby              

1211
00:53:12,981 --> 00:53:15,400
               [Jesse] This is all 
               Super Bowl history. 

1212
00:53:15,442 --> 00:53:18,695
      Every year, all these people 
      come to volunteer.            

1213
00:53:18,737 --> 00:53:21,323
         [Abel]                     
           And I said, ooh         

1214
00:53:21,364 --> 00:53:23,950
      I'm blinded by the lights    

1215

        No, I can't sleep           
       until I feel your touch      

1216
00:53:27,871 --> 00:53:29,372
         [Charm]                    
         Center. Keep going.        

1217
00:53:29,414 --> 00:53:32,876
           [Abel]                   
             I said, ooh           

1218
00:53:32,918 --> 00:53:35,212
      I'm blinded by the lights

      Stay close together.

        Whoo! Good job, guys!       

1223
00:53:47,265 --> 00:53:50,060
        It's almost in there.       
        It's okay.                  

1224
00:53:50,101 --> 00:53:51,228
        [Jesse] We just want        
        to thank you guys           

1225
00:53:51,269 --> 00:53:52,938
   for volunteering for the show.   

1226
00:53:52,979 --> 00:53:56,274
    We know it's tough,             
    but you guys are killing it.    

1227
00:53:56,316 --> 00:53:58,026
      It's gonna look amazing.      

1228
00:53:58,068 --> 00:53:59,736
      Next Sunday                   
      we're gonna make history,     

1229
00:53:59,778 --> 00:54:00,946
    and it's because of you all.    

1230
00:54:00,987 --> 00:54:02,322
         And I just want            
         to thank you again         

1231
00:54:02,364 --> 00:54:03,698
    for all your time and effort.   

1232
00:54:03,740 --> 00:54:05,492
       And we will see you          
       at the next rehearsal.       

1233
00:54:05,533 --> 00:54:07,577
           All right.               
           Appreciate you.

1237
00:54:32,477 --> 00:54:34,062
          [Jesse]                   
          It is what it is.         

1238
00:54:34,104 --> 00:54:36,106
         We got to get him          
         to that second row.        

1239
00:54:36,147 --> 00:54:39,067
   Can he be a little more          
   vertical until the last second? 

1240
00:54:39,109 --> 00:54:40,944
                                  

1241
00:54:40,986 --> 00:54:44,781
       The wind factors              
       are pretty important here.    

1242
00:54:44,823 --> 00:54:46,700
        One minute,                  
        it's ten miles an hour.      

1243
00:54:46,741 --> 00:54:49,286
     Yesterday they were almost 20. 

1244
00:54:49,327 --> 00:54:53,290
    Twenty-five miles an hour       
    or better, we can't fly him.    

1245
00:54:53,331 --> 00:54:56,293
         We'll see what happens      
         in rehearsal tonight.       

1246
00:54:56,334 --> 00:54:58,336
       [Lila] I think this is       
       gonna look really good.      

1247
00:54:58,378 --> 00:55:00,797
   Essentially, this is what        
   they're gonna have, like that.   

1248
00:55:00,839 --> 00:55:03,383
      It's all integrated           
      in the lighting of the show. 

1249
00:55:03,425 --> 00:55:05,510
     [Lila] Do we win for having    
     the coolest concept?           

1250
00:55:05,552 --> 00:55:07,053
              Yes.                  
              [laughs]              

1251
00:55:07,095 --> 00:55:08,471
    -Yeah? [laughs]                 
    -[person] I would think that.   

1252
00:55:08,513 --> 00:55:13,476
                                  

1253
00:55:16,104 --> 00:55:19,816
       [Seth]   We are the Monday     
        of Super Bowl week.          

1254
00:55:19,858 --> 00:55:22,319
     Tonight we are gonna be doing   
     our first walkthrough           

1255
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:24,738
            in the stadium.          

1256
00:55:24,779 --> 00:55:27,657
       Typically,                   
       the bulk of the stress       

1257
00:55:27,699 --> 00:55:30,660
   and just about all the eyeballs 
   from the NFL side                

1258
00:55:30,702 --> 00:55:33,246
       is on how minimally           
       can you impact the grass?     

1259
00:55:33,288 --> 00:55:36,291
       We want as few people         
       on the field as possible.     

1260
00:55:36,333 --> 00:55:38,168
       Hey, Aaron. Good news.       

1261
00:55:38,209 --> 00:55:41,838
    The field crew was able to      
    get us one pass on the grass.   

1262
00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:43,673
   -[Aaron]   Great.                  
   -[Seth] I know it's not ideal.   

1263
00:55:43,715 --> 00:55:45,425
    -But at least we'll have one.   
    -[Aaron]   I think we do          

1264
00:55:45,467 --> 00:55:47,761
     -two passes with the tarps on. 
    -[Seth]   Mm-hmm.                 

1265
00:55:47,802 --> 00:55:49,679
         [Aaron]   And then           
          we do our third pass       

1266
00:55:49,721 --> 00:55:52,640
        as our dress rehearsal.      

1267
00:55:52,682 --> 00:55:54,184
          [Jesse]                   
           There's a science         

1268
00:55:54,225 --> 00:55:57,020
       behind the condition          
       of the field at game time,    

1269
00:55:57,062 --> 00:55:59,272
         and it revolves             
         around player safety.       

1270
00:55:59,314 --> 00:56:02,150
            The more you run         
            on that field,           

1271
00:56:02,192 --> 00:56:04,652
          dance on the field,        
          you do damage to it.       

1272
00:56:04,694 --> 00:56:07,864
      That's why there's             
      no rehearsal after Thursday.   

1273
00:56:07,906 --> 00:56:11,951
   So, at the end of the night,     
   all of these scientists go out, 

1274
00:56:11,993 --> 00:56:13,828
     and they look at the damage    
     to the field,                  

1275
00:56:13,870 --> 00:56:15,538
       and then                     
       they send out a report.      

1276
00:56:15,580 --> 00:56:17,999
   If they feel like it was too     
   much damage, then they'll say,   

1277
00:56:18,041 --> 00:56:19,542
       "Okay, now you only get      
       four runs.                   

1278
00:56:19,584 --> 00:56:21,169
               Two. One."            

1279
00:56:21,211 --> 00:56:23,963
         And if it rains,            
         it's really a problem.      

1280
00:56:24,005 --> 00:56:26,341
   When they explained that to me, 
   I was like, "What do you mean?   

1281
00:56:26,383 --> 00:56:27,926
   We can just run up               
   and down the field all night."   

1282
00:56:27,967 --> 00:56:29,761
         They're like, "No."        

1283
00:56:29,803 --> 00:56:32,055
          That scares the shit       
          out of me,                 

1284
00:56:32,097 --> 00:56:34,474
          'cause we are              
          running out of time        

1285
00:56:34,516 --> 00:56:36,810
   the minute we start rehearsals. 

1286
00:56:36,851 --> 00:56:39,729
          apprehensive music       

1287
00:56:39,771 --> 00:56:44,734
                                  

1288
00:56:44,776 --> 00:56:47,320
 [person]   We can walk Abel         
 down on to the field.             

1289
00:56:47,362 --> 00:56:48,530
 We're just getting                
 the stairs in now.                

1290
00:56:48,571 --> 00:56:49,406
                             Okay. 

1291
00:56:49,447 --> 00:56:51,032
 Abel, the first thing,            

1292
00:56:51,074 --> 00:56:53,076
 let's try to see how this feels   
 for you to go down.               

1293
00:56:53,118 --> 00:56:55,328
 Go down and walk                  
 all the way to 50.                

1294
00:56:55,370 --> 00:56:57,080
             [Abel]                 
             How long is the space 

1295
00:56:57,122 --> 00:56:59,916
             between when            
             I finish the last note 

1296
00:56:59,958 --> 00:57:02,127
           to when I have to sing, 
           to "House of Balloons"? 

1297
00:57:02,168 --> 00:57:03,253
       To "House of Balloons,"      
       for you to get there,        

1298
00:57:03,294 --> 00:57:04,504
       it's, like, 35 seconds.      

1299
00:57:04,546 --> 00:57:06,214
          And then I start singing 
          from there, right?        

1300
00:57:06,256 --> 00:57:07,632
       -When I'm walking over?      
       -Exactly.                    

1301
00:57:07,674 --> 00:57:09,426
   But you have all those ad libs. 
   The "ooh, yay."                  

1302
00:57:09,467 --> 00:57:11,219
         Are you doing that         
         as you walk down?          

1303
00:57:11,261 --> 00:57:14,389
      -No, I want to get here.      
      -Ooh, okay. Okay.             

1304
00:57:14,431 --> 00:57:17,058
   [person] So, Abel, they're       
   very sensitive about the grass, 

1305
00:57:17,100 --> 00:57:18,560
         -just so you know.         
         -Okay.                     

1306
00:57:18,601 --> 00:57:20,478
         And, basically, if we're   
         in good graces tonight... 

1307
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:22,230
                Yeah.               

1308
00:57:22,272 --> 00:57:23,773
     ...they're gonna be great for 
     us for the rest of the week.   

1309
00:57:23,815 --> 00:57:24,899
     It'll just be me on there.     

1310
00:57:24,941 --> 00:57:26,860
          -[Charm] Yeah.            
          -Just keep it me.         

1311
00:57:26,901 --> 00:57:29,237
     [person]                       
     KP, do we have headphones?     

1312
00:57:29,279 --> 00:57:30,864
                           Fo sho. 

1313
00:57:30,905 --> 00:57:34,367
          The dancers will be        
          on E-one or E-two          

1314
00:57:34,409 --> 00:57:36,911
     without my voice or guidance.   

1315
00:57:36,953 --> 00:57:39,539
    -[person] Thank you so much.    
    -[KP] Yeah.                     

1316
00:57:39,581 --> 00:57:41,833
      [Jesse]                       
       It's all theory right now.    

1317
00:57:41,875 --> 00:57:44,377
       But you know the truth        
       once you're in rehearsal.     

1318
00:57:44,419 --> 00:57:46,754
          It's a lot of pieces       

1319
00:57:46,796 --> 00:57:49,924
            that could cause         
            huge problems.           

1320
00:57:49,966 --> 00:57:51,968
        It's a big Lego set          
        we're putting together.      

1321
00:57:52,010 --> 00:57:54,596
     [Charm] If you have a pass,    
     go ahead. Get it.              

1322
00:57:54,637 --> 00:57:56,306
         The cast                    
         has never done it full      

1323
00:57:56,347 --> 00:57:57,807
      from the top to the bottom.    

1324
00:57:57,849 --> 00:58:01,811
         Dance, crew, wardrobe.      

1325
00:58:01,853 --> 00:58:03,396
      Abel has to walk his track.    

1326
00:58:03,438 --> 00:58:05,273
           Abel has never            
           walked the track.         

1327
00:58:05,315 --> 00:58:08,776
      Every moving part has to be    
      put together in seven days.    

1328
00:58:08,818 --> 00:58:10,445
             Seven days.            

1329
00:58:10,487 --> 00:58:11,863
          And we start now.         

1330
00:58:11,905 --> 00:58:16,701
                                  

1331
00:58:16,743 --> 00:58:19,496
               Go! Go!              

1332
00:58:19,537 --> 00:58:22,040
                                  

1333
00:58:22,081 --> 00:58:23,750
       Abel, I want to do            
       all the blocking with you,    

1334
00:58:23,791 --> 00:58:25,627
      without them,                  
      so that you know your path.    

1335
00:58:27,545 --> 00:58:29,130
          [person]                  
          Okay, here we go.         

1336
00:58:29,172 --> 00:58:32,091
         [choir vocalizing]         

1337
00:58:32,133 --> 00:58:37,055
                                 

1338
00:58:44,270 --> 00:58:45,355
         [Jesse]                    
          He's got to at least come 

1339
00:58:45,396 --> 00:58:47,565
       to the downstage edge of it. 

1340
00:58:47,607 --> 00:58:49,943
    You're gonna get such a scream 
    when they actually see him.     

1341
00:58:49,984 --> 00:58:51,486
          -Yeah.                    
          -Think about it.          

1342
00:58:51,528 --> 00:58:53,530
         It's like, you waited      
         45 seconds for the video. 

1343
00:58:53,571 --> 00:58:55,114
           -Yeah.                   
           -Then we open.           

1344
00:58:55,156 --> 00:58:57,534
     And nobody saw him, and        
     we're just stuck in this box. 

1345
00:58:57,575 --> 00:58:58,826
 Okay.                             

1346
00:58:58,868 --> 00:59:00,328
               Jesse wants          
               to kind of see you, 

1347
00:59:00,370 --> 00:59:01,746
             and then you can       
             kind of back into it. 

1348
00:59:01,788 --> 00:59:03,248
 Jesse wants to see me             
 and then back into it.            

1349
00:59:03,289 --> 00:59:04,624
              -Yes.                 
              -Got it.              

1350
00:59:04,666 --> 00:59:05,667
           So, let's try that one. 

1351
00:59:05,708 --> 00:59:08,920
          [vocalizing tune]         

1352
00:59:08,962 --> 00:59:11,089
   Do you want to do it like that? 
   Yeah.

00:59:24,519 --> 00:59:26,604
           [La Mar]                 
           It's so beautiful, man. 

1356
00:59:26,646 --> 00:59:28,064
     You know                       
     about the elephant finale?     

1357
00:59:28,106 --> 00:59:29,232
          [La Mar]                  
          I mean, it's believable. 

1358
00:59:29,274 --> 00:59:31,150
           I could see it.          

1359
00:59:31,192 --> 00:59:32,485
     Wait will you see              
     the fucking elephant, dude.    

1360
00:59:32,527 --> 00:59:34,153
             [laughter]             

1361
00:59:34,195 --> 00:59:36,072
           -Very   Scarface.          
           -Yeah, exactly.          

1362
00:59:36,114 --> 00:59:37,740
           Very   Scarface.

1364
00:59:48,001 --> 00:59:49,294
     [person]                       
     And then really secure it.     

1365
00:59:49,335 --> 00:59:51,504
      [person 2]                    
      Yeah. Do we need to put--     

1366
00:59:51,546 --> 00:59:53,881
    -This just the base for mine.   
    -[person] Perfect.              

1367
00:59:56,009 --> 00:59:58,261
       -Does that feel tight?       
       -[dancer] Yes.               

1368
01:00:01,055 --> 01:00:03,224
 Do you feel like                  
 it's tight enough?                

1369
01:00:03,266 --> 01:00:04,851
                Um...               

1370

01:05:34,430 --> 01:05:35,765
        [Jesse]                     
        What is in the screen       

1494
01:05:35,806 --> 01:05:38,017
         as he's coming down        
         at that moment?            

1495
01:05:38,059 --> 01:05:41,604
    [Hamish]   This is what I've      
     been bagging on about forever. 

1496
01:05:41,646 --> 01:05:43,940
       [Dionne]                     
        Hamish, as the director,     

1497
01:05:43,981 --> 01:05:47,568
      is responsible                
      for what the world sees.      

1498
01:05:47,610 --> 01:05:50,279
           He has 18 cameras.        

1499
01:05:50,321 --> 01:05:53,866
     He's calling all                
     of those shots in the moment.   

1500
01:05:53,908 --> 01:05:56,118
   [Hamish] So, 15, will you give   
   me the choir boy first, please, 

1501
01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:57,870
          as he comes down?         

1502
01:05:57,912 --> 01:05:59,789
   And, James, can we just make     
   sure we've got all these isos?   

1503
01:05:59,830 --> 01:06:01,457
    'Cause I think there might be   
    some good stuff here.           

1504
01:06:01,499 --> 01:06:04,210
       [Dionne]   He's got            
        to keep in mind the set.     

1505
01:06:04,251 --> 01:06:07,380
        There's certain moments      
        of choreography.             

1506
01:06:07,421 --> 01:06:10,299
 [Hamish]                          
 The moon is coming out.           

1507
01:06:10,341 --> 01:06:12,343
 Take four instead.                
 Four.                             

1508
01:06:12,385 --> 01:06:14,971
 Oh, no.                           

1509
01:06:15,012 --> 01:06:16,180
       [Dionne]                     
        He's got to be thinking      

1510
01:06:16,222 --> 01:06:17,431
       about all of those things,    

1511
01:06:17,473 --> 01:06:19,141
       and it's a delicate dance.    

1512
01:06:19,183 --> 01:06:20,601
        Strings, please, 15.        

1513
01:06:20,643 --> 01:06:22,895
       Oh, they showed 13.          
       That's nice. 13's good.      

1514
01:06:22,937 --> 01:06:25,272
      Okay, down on the field now, 
      everybody.                    

1515
01:06:25,314 --> 01:06:28,317
          Down to the field, 13.    
          Down to the field, four. 

1516
01:06:28,359 --> 01:06:30,736
            dramatic music         

1517
01:06:30,778 --> 01:06:34,865
    [Dionne]   He's done some of the 
     biggest things on television.   

1518
01:06:34,907 --> 01:06:37,493
          He's done this show        
          multiple times.            

1519
01:06:37,535 --> 01:06:39,912
        [cheers and applause]       

1520
01:06:39,954 --> 01:06:43,833
     He's been at every single       
     rehearsal with his cell phone, 

1521
01:06:43,874 --> 01:06:46,669
       coming up with his shots.     

1522
01:06:46,711 --> 01:06:49,588
          He is phenomenal           
          at helping showcase        

1523
01:06:49,630 --> 01:06:51,590
        what everyone else           
        has brought to the table     

1524
01:06:51,632 --> 01:06:55,344
     so that the world can see it.   

1525
01:06:55,386 --> 01:06:57,430
       [Jesse] It looked terrific. 
       That pass was great.         

1526
01:06:57,471 --> 01:06:58,764
           -The last one.           
           -Yeah.                   

1527
01:06:58,806 --> 01:07:00,516
         There's definitely         
         a few messy moments        

1528
01:07:00,558 --> 01:07:02,351
    that we need                    
    to really get in and amongst,   

1529
01:07:02,393 --> 01:07:04,437
      but I think, overall,         
      there's some new angles.      

1530
01:07:04,478 --> 01:07:06,814
   They're definitely gonna help.   
   We're a long way off.            

1531
01:07:06,856 --> 01:07:09,191
     But I know that we've got--    

1532
01:07:09,233 --> 01:07:10,484
         we've got the shots        
         that we need.              

1533
01:07:10,526 --> 01:07:11,610
        It's just they're not       
        in the right order.         

1534
01:07:11,652 --> 01:07:13,112
        You'll see.                 
        Let's watch it back.        

1535
01:07:13,154 --> 01:07:14,947
     [Jesse]                        
     Want to sit in the middle?     

1536
01:07:14,989 --> 01:07:17,491
     -[person] Tighter. Tighter.    
     -[Hamish] Tighter.             

1537
01:07:19,535 --> 01:07:23,164
       [Dionne]   Now is really       
        that time to fine-tune.      

1538
01:07:23,205 --> 01:07:25,207
      We're a team of OCD people,    

1539
01:07:25,249 --> 01:07:29,003
        so everyone is looking       
        at every single detail,      

1540
01:07:29,045 --> 01:07:33,049
     every single pass,              
     and it gets better every time. 

1541
01:07:33,090 --> 01:07:34,550
   -[Abel] Pause it for a second.   
   -[Jesse] Yeah.                   

1542
01:07:34,592 --> 01:07:36,052
         Can we have, every time-- 

1543
01:07:36,093 --> 01:07:38,054
   every time it hits those stabs, 
   can we have, like,               

1544
01:07:38,095 --> 01:07:40,806
       a different--like, a "dun," 
       kind of like "dun,"          

1545
01:07:40,848 --> 01:07:43,142
          or, like, have it feel    
          more dramatic in energy? 

1546
01:07:43,184 --> 01:07:44,852
 [La Mar] Okay, so different       
 camera angles on those hits?      

1547
01:07:44,894 --> 01:07:46,687
                Yeah, maybe--yeah. 

1548
01:07:46,729 --> 01:07:48,522
 Alex had that idea, too.          
 It was good.                      

1549
01:07:48,564 --> 01:07:49,565
   -That's what I'm talking about. 
   -Yeah, yeah, yeah.               

1550
01:07:49,607 --> 01:07:51,025
        ["Earned It" playing]       

1551
01:07:51,067 --> 01:07:54,403
         You make it look like      
        it's magic                  

1552
01:07:54,445 --> 01:07:56,030
        [Dionne]                    
         We run it all through,      

1553
01:07:56,072 --> 01:07:57,907
         and then we're down         
         for about 20 minutes,       

1554
01:07:57,948 --> 01:07:59,909
           and we give notes.        

1555
01:07:59,950 --> 01:08:01,827
        [La Mar] One thing that     
        Abel's super adamant about 

1556
01:08:01,869 --> 01:08:03,370
              was featuring         
              more of the stadium. 

1557
01:08:03,412 --> 01:08:05,289
                 He wants to feel   
                 that fandemonium, 

1558
01:08:05,331 --> 01:08:07,041
         with, like,                
         the lights and the seats. 

1559
01:08:08,584 --> 01:08:10,377
          [Jesse]                   
           So it was a mess.         

1560
01:08:10,419 --> 01:08:12,630
       A couple cameras              
       didn't make it down there.    

1561
01:08:12,671 --> 01:08:15,132
   They were behind you.            
   They didn't get there in time.   

1562
01:08:15,174 --> 01:08:16,175
           So don't quit.           

1563
01:08:16,217 --> 01:08:19,220
             [laughter]             

1564
01:08:19,261 --> 01:08:21,305
   [Alex] I think we're cutting to 
   too many ultra-wides, you know? 

1565
01:08:21,347 --> 01:08:22,765
       [Abel] But aren't you        
       gonna need ultra-wides       

1566
01:08:22,807 --> 01:08:26,769
   to get that, like,               
   Chinese Olympics feel, though?   

1567
01:08:26,811 --> 01:08:28,604
    [Alex]   Definitely for moments, 
     but I'm just saying, like,      

1568
01:08:28,646 --> 01:08:30,898
        when you enter the field     
        for "House of Balloons,"     

1569
01:08:30,940 --> 01:08:33,359
      and then, like, we're seeing   
      them for the first time.       

1570
01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:34,860
      [Abel] I think                
      there should be something     

1571
01:08:34,902 --> 01:08:37,113
   between that set and this set.   

1572
01:08:37,154 --> 01:08:39,156
 Some pyro maybe?                  
 Like, seeing the stadium?         

1573
01:08:39,198 --> 01:08:41,575
     What do you mean, like,        
     a wide shot and then come in? 

1574
01:08:41,617 --> 01:08:46,664
                                  

1575
01:08:46,705 --> 01:08:49,416
     [Dionne]                       
      One of my roles is noticing    

1576
01:08:49,458 --> 01:08:52,795
          those really minute        
          visual details             

1577
01:08:52,837 --> 01:08:56,757
     that the viewer may not notice 
     on the surface,                 

1578
01:08:56,799 --> 01:09:01,053
     but it makes a huge difference 
     in the overall scope of it.     

1579
01:09:01,095 --> 01:09:04,598
      When he turns around, you      
      see the backs of the world.    

1580
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:05,891
    -[Jesse]   Oh!                    
    -[Dionne]   Do you understand--   

1581
01:09:05,933 --> 01:09:08,435
 And the building should be        
 double-sided or not at all?       

1582
01:09:08,477 --> 01:09:09,728
             All right, so let's    
             give Bruce that note. 

1583
01:09:09,770 --> 01:09:10,729
               [Dionne]             
                Yeah.                

1584
01:09:10,771 --> 01:09:12,731
        Everybody will go home,      

1585
01:09:12,773 --> 01:09:15,317
        and then it's on you         
        to get your mind right,      

1586
01:09:15,359 --> 01:09:18,112
         visualize it                
         over and over and over      

1587
01:09:18,154 --> 01:09:20,072
       until the last rehearsal.     

1588
01:09:20,114 --> 01:09:22,074
       -That was the best one.      
       -[La Mar] Oh, my God.        

1589
01:09:22,116 --> 01:09:24,285
     -That was incredible, bro.     
     -That was incredible.          

1590
01:09:24,326 --> 01:09:26,537
 I think too much smoke            
 at the beginning.                 

1591
01:09:26,579 --> 01:09:28,080
        Yeah.                       
        Still too much smoke.       

1592
01:09:28,122 --> 01:09:29,915
 And since I got the glasses on,   
 too, I can't see shit.            

1593
01:09:29,957 --> 01:09:30,833
                Okay.               

1594
01:09:38,090 --> 01:09:41,760
       [both]                       
         O'er the land of the      

1595
01:09:41,802 --> 01:09:44,513
                 Free              

1596
01:09:44,555 --> 01:09:46,348
           [singer]                 
             And the home          

1597
01:09:46,390 --> 01:09:49,894
            - Home of the          
            - Of the               

1598
01:09:49,935 --> 01:09:54,732
                                 

1599
01:09:54,773 --> 01:09:58,485
              [both]                
                Brave              

1600
01:09:58,527 --> 01:10:03,490
                                 

1601
01:10:08,829 --> 01:10:11,874
           -[person] Whoo!          
           -[applause]              

1602
01:10:14,585 --> 01:10:16,212
 Wait a minute. So where           
 do you want the jets to fly?      

1603
01:10:16,253 --> 01:10:17,713
         So the jets are gonna fly 
         at the very end.           

1604
01:10:17,755 --> 01:10:20,799
              So, like, there.      
              Right at the--like-- 

1605
01:10:20,841 --> 01:10:22,718
      -[Dionne] After the pyro.     
      -After the pyro.              

1606
01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:24,803
 I think the pyro's                
 a beat late.                      

1607
01:10:24,845 --> 01:10:27,640
              Now pyro.             

1608
01:10:27,681 --> 01:10:28,891
                Bam!                

1609
01:10:28,933 --> 01:10:30,392
                             Jets. 

1610
01:10:30,434 --> 01:10:32,228
             -Jets?                 
             -And jets.             

1611
01:10:32,269 --> 01:10:34,688
      -And then you want jets.      
      -[Cheryl] And jets. Yeah.     

1612
01:10:34,730 --> 01:10:36,607
    -After the second hit. Okay.    
    -Yeah.                          

1613
01:10:36,649 --> 01:10:37,858
       [Jesse] Just as long as      
       there's just, like,          

1614
01:10:37,900 --> 01:10:40,444
    not finish and then the jets.   

1615
01:10:40,486 --> 01:10:41,737
                       [Cheryl]     
                       No. No way. 

1616
01:10:41,779 --> 01:10:44,448
         [person] We know           
         when CBS goes away         

1617
01:10:44,490 --> 01:10:46,909
           at 6:15, 6:20,           

1618
01:10:46,951 --> 01:10:48,285
    those jets are gonna fly over   

1619
01:10:48,327 --> 01:10:50,871
        11 minutes                  
        and 13 seconds later.       

1620
01:10:50,913 --> 01:10:52,748
     There's all sorts of things    
     that can happen                

1621
01:10:52,790 --> 01:10:54,792
       in live broadcasts,          
       so I'm just wondering,       

1622
01:10:54,833 --> 01:10:57,544
   like, if there's a contingency, 
   or how that works.               

1623
01:10:57,586 --> 01:10:58,963
        They're going almost        
        300 miles an hour.          

1624
01:10:59,004 --> 01:11:00,422
                          [Cheryl] 
                          Right.    

1625
01:11:00,464 --> 01:11:02,258
      And it's only 14.8 miles      
      from the point to here.       

1626
01:11:02,299 --> 01:11:03,550
              To here. Understood. 

1627
01:11:03,592 --> 01:11:06,428
    [pilot]                         
    So, once they leave the hold,   

1628
01:11:06,470 --> 01:11:10,057
    we can probably gain            
    or lose about three seconds.    

1629
01:11:10,099 --> 01:11:12,059
             [Cheryl]               
             Okay. That's perfect. 

1630
01:11:12,101 --> 01:11:13,769
            So we have              
            a three-second window. 

1631
01:11:13,811 --> 01:11:15,771
    [person] And the pyro's         
    going off before the flyover?   

1632
01:11:15,813 --> 01:11:16,772
                           Mm-hmm. 

1633
01:11:16,814 --> 01:11:18,107
      We will still have smoke,     

1634
01:11:18,148 --> 01:11:20,943
     but compared                   
     to traditional pyrotechnics    

1635
01:11:20,985 --> 01:11:22,278
   you'd see in a national anthem, 

1636
01:11:22,319 --> 01:11:24,113
      would be about 70 percent     
      less smoke.                   

1637
01:11:24,154 --> 01:11:25,698
           [person] Cool.           

1638

        Silverlace Comet with tail 

1639
01:11:28,325 --> 01:11:30,452
             coming off             
             the north scoreboard. 

1640
01:11:30,494 --> 01:11:32,246
        Jason, counting you in.      

1641
01:11:32,288 --> 01:11:35,332
      In three, two, one. Fire.     

1642
01:11:37,126 --> 01:11:38,127
                Fire.               

1643

1646
01:11:51,056 --> 01:11:53,934
       We've already got             
       most of the stadium cabled    

1647
01:11:53,976 --> 01:11:56,687
        and our control location     
        set up.                      

1648
01:11:56,729 --> 01:11:59,523
       So now it's really getting    
       the product up to the roof    

1649
01:11:59,565 --> 01:12:01,692
     and working through rehearsals 

1650
01:12:01,734 --> 01:12:03,610
        to make any last-minute      
        adjustments to the cues      

1651
01:12:03,652 --> 01:12:05,112
      and the timing of the cues.    

1652
01:12:10,534 --> 01:12:14,330
     [Bruce]   Traditionally,         
      the Thursday night rehearsal   

1653
01:12:14,371 --> 01:12:16,665
        is the final rehearsal.      

1654

        We're always looking         
        for any kind of a chance     

1655
01:12:19,501 --> 01:12:21,920
         to improve before           
         the actual live show.       

1656
01:12:21,962 --> 01:12:23,505
                              Hey! 

1657
01:12:23,547 --> 01:12:25,674
                Es, come this way. 

1658
01:12:25,716 --> 01:12:28,510
         Very excited.              
         I'm very emotional.        

1659
01:12:28,552 --> 01:12:30,429
     -Very overwhelmed.             
     -It's so great to see you.     

1660
01:12:30,471 --> 01:12:32,681
        -La Mar.                    
        -How you doing, man?        

1661

1663
01:12:37,728 --> 01:12:39,021
 That still got to come down.      

1664
01:12:39,063 --> 01:12:42,024
           [Bruce] Maybe.           

1665
01:12:42,066 --> 01:12:45,027
        [Es]   All I can say is,      
         I feel just so happy        

1666
01:12:45,069 --> 01:12:46,987
         to be here                  
         doing a big old show.       

1667
01:12:47,029 --> 01:12:47,905
           -[Bruce]   Yes.            
           -[Es]   You know?          

1668
01:12:47,946 --> 01:12:49,531
            'Cause I've done a few, 

1669
01:12:49,573 --> 01:12:50,741
         but I haven't done a rock 
         and roll show for a year. 

1670
01:12:50,783 --> 01:12:52,242
      -Yeah.                        
      -And it's a very special      

1671
01:12:52,284 --> 01:12:54,370

        to just be walking around, 

1672
01:12:54,411 --> 01:12:56,205
     seeing those faces, you know? 

1673
01:12:56,246 --> 01:12:59,500
                  It's something-- 
                  it's magical.     

1674
01:12:59,541 --> 01:13:01,919
      [Bruce]   It means, I guess,    
       you got to put on...          

1675
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:05,255

1678
01:13:12,179 --> 01:13:14,056
         [Seth]                     
          Our last rehearsal,        

1679
01:13:14,098 --> 01:13:16,350
        it's got to be flawless.     

1680
01:13:16,392 --> 01:13:19,353
           We are literally          
           counting on people        

1681
01:13:19,395 --> 01:13:23,565
         to have it ingrained        
         in their head so much       

1682
01:13:23,607 --> 01:13:25,734
      that they can just come back   
      Sunday with no run-through     

1683
01:13:25,776 --> 01:13:26,902
            and just hit it.         

1684
01:13:26,944 --> 01:13:30,155
      So that's where the anxiety    

1685
01:13:30,197 --> 01:13:32,741
            and the stress           
            really kicks in.         

1686
01:13:32,783 --> 01:13:34,368
   I know a lot of the NFL people   
   will be looking                  

1687
01:13:34,410 --> 01:13:36,245
         at the on-off time,        

1688
01:13:36,286 --> 01:13:38,247
       the final--like,             
       the final "reset look."      

1689
01:13:38,288 --> 01:13:39,581
         [Bruce]                    
          We're at six minutes       

1690
01:13:39,623 --> 01:13:41,583
           to get this thing ready 
           for halftime show.       

1691
01:13:41,625 --> 01:13:43,335
     [Jesse] All right, and         
     what about on the backside?    

1692
01:13:43,377 --> 01:13:44,753
          [Bruce] A little longer. 
          [chuckles]                

1693
01:13:44,795 --> 01:13:46,588
    Do we want to say               
    the number in front of Seth?    

1694
01:13:46,630 --> 01:13:48,257
        -[Bruce] No, not yet.       
        -Not yet?                   

1695
01:13:48,298 --> 01:13:51,718
 I think it was at ten, so...      

1696
01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:53,220
        [Jesse] You need us         
        to be at six, right?        

1697
01:13:53,262 --> 01:13:54,888
 That's what                       
 I want you guys to hit,           

1698
01:13:54,930 --> 01:13:58,434
 but if we're still pulling out    
 some things off-camera at six,    

1699
01:13:58,475 --> 01:14:00,310
 you know,                         
 we can live with that.            

1700
01:14:00,352 --> 01:14:02,896
   [Jesse]   It'll be the first time 
 the NFL sees it.                  

1701
01:14:02,938 --> 01:14:05,899
       It'll be the first time

        it's like, okay,             

1705
01:14:12,781 --> 01:14:16,577
       all these things              
       could cause huge problems.

           that it's created.

01:16:00,597 --> 01:16:04,768

01:16:04,810 --> 01:16:08,939
     is really all of these people

 All right, have fun--             

1745
01:16:28,750 --> 01:16:30,085
 That last pass,

       -[Alex] No. Not at all.      
       -Okay, good.                 

1751
01:16:38,468 --> 01:16:41,847
 [Abel] Playing sports must be     
 way more nerve-racking.           

1752
01:16:41,888 --> 01:16:44,099
       -[laughs] Than singing?      
       -[Abel] Yeah, dude.          

1753
01:16:44,141 --> 01:16:45,892
 'Cause singing, everybody
