That scene...

I don't know if it was meant to be funny, but it made me so sad.

It made me so sad because I could see that happening in real life.

You can't give me a coffee.

Come on.

Terrible.

You said you did some ride-alongs to prepare.

What were those like?

That are like, there's no profit here.

It's like on a practical level and metaphorical level, they're putting out fires.

They're running into not just burning buildings, but burning forests now.

And you've had some personal experience that you shared just before we started filming.

It's terrible.

Were you aware that that was coming or did you have to like immediately in the middle?

My understanding, this is very superficial, but-

is that it rained a lot at one point, greenery grew, but then it became a drought, and all that greenery that normally wasn't there then was susceptible to catching on fire?

But this should probably be solved soon because the head of HHS is an environmental lawyer whose focus is on saving the environment, right?

We should be good.

I laugh in a sense of despair, kind of like I was when I was watching the movie yesterday.

Talk to me about your relationship with your primary care doctor that you mentioned, or maybe you had one before that you were closer with.
