More poker.
:10:01
And winning. The guy'd have
a hairball if he'd lost...

:10:04
... which wasn't often,
let me tell you.

:10:06
- Full house.
- Oh, man.

:10:09
Hey, Bill.
:10:12
Our rooms were like a casino.
:10:14
Actually, a messy casino.
:10:16
And Bill slept wherever he fell down.
:10:25
Bill, the revolution's starting
without us.

:10:28
Bill and Paul Allen had known
each other since they were kids.

:10:31
If the word "passion"
entered into their lives...

:10:33
... it was for one thing; computers.
:10:36
Especially this one made by some guy
in Albuquerque of all places.

:10:41
What is this, porn for engineers?
:10:44
Oh, jeez, the Altair.
:10:47
Am I missing something?
:10:49
I mean, Miss October, I can understand,
but what is this?

:10:53
This is better than Miss October.
:10:57
This is a computer.
:10:59
- Oh, God.
- The article says...

:11:01
...that they need someone
to figure out a language for it.

:11:04
Right now
it just sits there and blinks.

:11:11
Whoever talks to this Ed Roberts
has gotta go to Albuquerque to see him.

:11:14
You should go because you look
better for that stuff than I do.

:11:18
- I do not.
- You both look terrible.

:11:20
- Just get used to it.
- What are we supposed to do?

:11:23
It's simple.
You call him and say you're Paul.

:11:26
And then Paul goes to Albuquerque
and says he's Paul.

:11:36
So, what are you gonna say?
:11:40
Hi, Mr. Ed Roberts, please.
:11:43
This is Paul Allen, calling
from Cambridge, Massachusetts.

:11:48
It's our job to find out what this guy
doesn't know that he needs...

:11:52
...but does need and make sure
he knows he does need it...

:11:55
...and that we're the only ones
to give him the answer.

:11:58
What?
