through it.
Like Carl Jung says, "Embrace your grief,
for there your soul will grow.''
You're tuned in to K-Bear
in Cicely, Alaska.
This is Chris in the Morning,
and today we have the blues.
Watch it.
? Well, it's over?
?All over?
Chris.
Dr. Joel. How are you doing?
Not bad. Not bad.
How 'bout you?
I'm good.
Thank you very much.
So, how're the giris treating you?
Giris?
Yeah, you know, giris?
Two legs, skirts?
Oh, right, right.
I heard about you and Elaine.
Yeah? Well?
Twelve years, man.
You think you know somebody,
then- - they blow you off
in a barely legible letter.
Don't take that personally.
I just got kicked in the gut by the woman
who promised to have my children.
You're telling me
not to take it personally?
Hey, brother, rejection is one
way to look at it.
But with the yin-yang,
man-woman thing,
it's either balanced or it isn't.
All right, if it isn't,
it just means it isn't.
It's just the eternal ecology
of the love thing.
Right. Well, you wouldn't
happen to have a spare seventh sister
hanging around, would ya?
Seventh sister?
Back east, it's a sort of
upper-echelon woman's school,
you know, like Radcliffe, Wellesley.
Oh, right, right.
I'm seeing someone right now
who's a grad student at Swarthmore.
Swarthmore? The Swarthmore
in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania?
Mm-hmm.
What's-What's a girl from Swarthmore
doing in Alaska in the dead of winter?
Um, field study on
the rituals of the Tsimshian Indians
out at the Metlakatla.
She's got a friend coming in tonight
goes to one of them colored schools.
Colored schools?
Brown.
Brown? She goes to
Brown University?
Mm-hmm.
Wow. That's Ivy League.
Hey. Holling's tonight, 7:00.
Perhaps you'd like to join us?
I'll be there.
Morning, Shelly.
Morning, Shelly.
Keep it down, will you?
She was up in front of that TV
all night long.
john Carson, Adam 12.
I woke up this morning,
I could hear them playing
the Japanese national anthem.
Coffee. Coffee.
Coffee.
I have a headache.
It starts here and comes to here.
It's not a baby one.
It's a full-grown, adult-size bangeroo.
Oh-Oh! What time is it?
Ten of nine.
All right! I can still catch
Angйlica, mi vida.
Only the hottest soap opera
in Puerto Rico, Holling.
Huh.
It looks like
she slept in her clothes.
She never came to bed
at all last night.
Hey, Maurice.
I pay that boy good money.
Listen to the depressing junk
he plays on that radio.
Morning, Maurice.
It's supposed to be depressing.
It's the blues.
- Is, uh, Chris all bent out of shape
about the housing situation?
No. He likes living at the station.
On Wednesday nights, I get
a direct feed from CBS from Bejing.
Chris usually likes to come up,
and we discuss the big picture.
I try to clear the decks.
Last night I prepared a batch
of those spicy chicken wings that he likes.
He didn't show up,
and he didn't call.
Well, Chris was here
most of the night.
- Here?
- Oh, yeah. A bunch of us
got together to watch the TV.
Ed, there's a flick on the tube tonight
you might be interested in.
It's called An Unmarried Woman.
Come by the house.
- I'll throw a couple ofT-bones
on the fire.
- Well, thanks, Maurice.
But you know, a bunch of us
are gonna get together here
and watch the rugby game.
Rugby.
You follow rugby, do ya?
Oh, no. But it's kind of fun
to watch anything when
there's a bunch of people around.
Uh-huh.
You're gonna rub the end of
that pool stick right off.
Giris, no such thing
as too much chalk.
The four ball
in the corner pocket.
I always wanted to say that.
I thought you said
you majored in pool.
Only since I've been in Cicely.
It's what passes
for high culture around here.
It'd make a good topic
for your thesis.
"Pool as a ritual in primeval society.''
Stand over there, please.
You're making me look very short
in front of these women. Thank you.
Funny guy.
Yes! It went in.
Did you see that?
That was the three ball.
So?
You said four.
Give him a
