TRISHA INGRAM: All right.
Welcome, everyone.
My name is Trisha Ingram.
And I want to welcome all of you to a very special edition
of Artists at Google.
Today is Take Your Children to Work Day.
And we are so lucky to have over 100
Googler kids in our audience.
Are you here, kids?
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
TRISHA INGRAM: All right.
Excellent.
As the late, great children's book author, Roald Dahl, said,
"Those who don't believe in magic will never see it."
Well, in 2011, nine-year-old Caine Monroy spent his summer
vacation building an elaborate, DIY cardboard
arcade inside his dad's used auto parts store, and invited
people to play.
The entire summer went by.
And Caine had yet to have a single customer.
Until one day, a filmmaker named Nirvan stopped by to buy
a door handle.
What happened next inspired Nirvan's short film.
[VIDEO PLAYBACK]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
-My name is Caine.
And I'm nine years old.
My arcade is called Caine's Arcade.
I'm open on weekends only.
And it's real cheap.
-Caine does not pass by an arcade without stopping in.
He loves tickets, playing games.
He loves prizes.
So it was only natural for him to build his own arcade.
[END VIDEO PLAYBACK]
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
TRISHA INGRAM: So who here believes in magic?
Can I see some hands?
That's what I thought.
So Nirvan posted this film on the internet on April 9, 2012.
And five days later, the movie went viral.
With now over 8 million views and screenings around the
world on television and at festivals, it
has launched a movement.
Here to talk about this incredible journey is Nirvan
Mullick and Caine Monroy.
Please join me in giving a warm Google welcome.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
NIRVAN MULLICK: Hello.
Thanks for having us.
I'm Nirvan.
CAINE MONROY: Caine Monroy.
NIRVAN MULLICK: This video came out about a
little over a year ago.
As Tricia said, it was April 9.
I just want to share a little bit of the impact that the
film has had both been on my life, and Caine's life, and
then we'll do a little Q and A. Sound cool?
So if you guys have questions, think about them, and then ask
us at the end.
Literally, the day I posted the film, it just went viral.
At the end of the film, there was that little website.
Cainesarcade.com.
It said, donate to Caine's scholarship fund.
The goals was to raise a $25,000
scholarship fund for Caine.
Caine's dad, who is in the back somewhere,
he was like, yeah.
Maybe.
Good luck.
There's George.
So the first day we posted the film, it got over a million
views, and it raised over $60,000 on day one.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
NIRVAN MULLICK: That was the thought.
We raised the goal, actually, to $100,000, thinking by the
time Caine's ready for college, this might even cover
a semester, because tuition is going up so fast.
So we raised the goal to $100,000.
And the next day, it raised over $110,000.
At that point, we were like, should we
raise the goal again?
And George is like, yes.
Raise it to a million bucks, please.
We said, no, wait.
We don't really know what's going on here.
We need to kind of figure out what's happening, have a plan
before we invite the global community that's helped us
reach this goal without having a plan.
Because the first two days, I mean we were getting phone
calls, and the media was calling us.
I didn't sleep for the first two days.
We were going and doing all these talk shows.
Remember?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
Paris.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Well, not in the first two days, we didn't
go to Paris.
But we did end up going to Paris.
So there's this huge, global interest.
By the end of the fifth day, we'd raised over
$152,000 for Caine.
We gave him this giant, cardboard check at his arcade.
But it wasn't just the money that was being raised.
There was media around the world.
Justin Timberlake was tweeting it out.
It was trending on Twitter worldwide.
It had over 140 million media impressions in the first week.
And the more magical thing was the response from
kids around the world.
Kids and educators saw the film, and they just started
making things.
So this is a little clip from a follow-up film I made,
showing a little bit of the global response from kids and
people around the world to Caine's Arcade.
[VIDEO PLAYBACK]
-Finally tonight, we have a great
story out of Los Angeles.
East LA, to be precise.
-When you're a lonely, nine-year-old boy, an empty
cardboard box can be a universe of possibilities.
-I found this great story.
I want to share it with you.
-They're lining up to play at his cardboard arcade.
-This kid made his own arcade.
-And the internet has been flooded with response videos.
-Yeah!
You get ten tries.
-50.
-Caine, this is me, Jojo Romand.
-I made this pinball machine.
-It's called Tilt-a-Ball.
-Nice!
-Awesome.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[END VIDEO PLAYBACK]
NIRVAN MULLICK: So there's this beautiful response from
kids around the world.
Something magical was really happening.
After two days of not sleeping, I had this idea of
trying to start a foundation, and have an impact on more
kids like Caine, who just needed a high five and their
creativity to be fostered.
Are you going for the mic?
What?
You're four?
Wow.
I'm 38.
[LAUGHTER]
NIRVAN MULLICK: So I stayed up for two days, and then I wrote
this mission statement on a napkin to find, foster, and
fund creativity and entrepreneurship in more kids
like Caine.
Because it was just clear there are so many kids like
Caine out there.
Parents were posting pictures of their kids on Facebook, on
our Facebook page, saying, my daughter is four,
and she saw the movie.
She just built an arcade in our kitchen.
She's got her own shirt.
How do we get some customers into the kitchen?
So the idea was to try make a foundation that would help
foster creativity in kids everywhere.
So I had a conversation with the Goldhirsh
Foundation Ben Goldhirsh.
They started "GOOD Magazine." Really great folks.
I've known them for 12 years.
He said to me, you guys are starting at the destination.
There's so many organizations trying to figure out how to
scale things like project-based learning.
What can we do to support you?
At that point, they offered us a quarter million dollar grant
to start up the Imagination Foundation.
The quarter million dollar grant started matching, dollar
for dollar, the donations being made by the public to
the Caine Scholarship Fund.
So every dollar given by the public to Caine Scholarship
Fund, the Goldhirsh Foundation gave us $1.00 to start up
Imagination Foundation.
At that point, we raised the goal on the website from
$100,000 to $25,000.
And this is a little bit of what we accomplished in the
first five months from the film being posted.
[VIDEO PLAYBACK]
-So the Imagination Foundation's mission is to
find, foster, and fund creativity and
entrepreneurship in kids like Caine.
After we started the foundation, the first thing we
did is we hit the ground running with a
school pilot program.
Within the first two months, over 100 schools in nine
countries participated, using project-based learning to
teach kids math, science, and engineering.
-One of the greatest challenges I think we face in
education is tapping into children's natural powers of
creativity.
And one of the appeals of Caine's Arcade is it's
demonstrated how deep those powers are, and how readily
people will rise to the challenge if
you give it to them.
-So we decided to give this world a
global Cardboard Challenge.
We Invited people around the world to build anything
awesome out of cardboard, recycled materials, and their
imagination.
And three weeks after posting this challenge, we had over
271 events organized in 41 countries around the world.
-I told Caine that when I was a kid, I also
built cardboard rockets.
These were space capsules that we could
actually fly in our backyard.
And here I am, many years later, and I'm still building
spacecraft.
But this one, a real once that landed on Mars.
-Childhood imagination will take you from cardboard to
this in just a few years.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[END VIDEO PLAYBACK]
NIRVAN MULLICK: The Cardboard Challenge culminated in a
global day of play, which last year, happened on October 6,
which was the one-year anniversary of the flash mob
we did for Caine.
And this year, it will be happening again on October 5.
So every year on the anniversary of the flash mob,
we invite the world to come out and play, and celebrate
the creativity of kids om their community.
This year, the goal of Imagination Foundation is to
engage one million kids in 70 countries in creative play.
We've been growing a lot, very quickly.
So we invite you all to find out more, and maybe
participate in a Cardboard Challenge in your communities.
And I just want to share a little bit about how this has
impacted Caine, right?
You remember that day, the flash mob, before the film
went all viral.
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Do you remember what you said to you
dad when you guys were driving home?
CAINE MONROY: It was the best day of my life.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah.
So George told me that the next day, and it kind of made
me tear up.
The impact it had.
I mean, we've raised over $232,000 now for Caine's
Scholarship Fund.
This is a photo from the Saturday after
the film went viral.
We didn't invite people this time to a flash mob.
But over 1,000 people just showed up spontaneously to
play Caine's Arcade.
And we had, like, there was a line around the block.
There was like a four or five hour wait.
And Caine actually started selling a $20 Fast Fun Pass,
where you can skip the line.
[LAUGHTER]
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine was the youngest ever entrepreneur to
speak at the USC Marshall School of Business.
CNN came out, and filmed you there?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Then Caine went up to Sacramento.
And he was given the Latino Spirit Award at the California
State Assembly.
And he wore sneaks with his suit.
We went to France, as Caine mentioned.
Caine was the youngest ever speaker at the Cannes Lions
International Festival of Creativity, which we renamed
Caine's Lions, for the day.
[LAUGHTER]
NIRVAN MULLICK: He was just out in New York, where he
spoke at a Tedx Teen event, hosted by Chelsea Clinton.
Was that fun?
CAINE MONROY: Yeah.
NIRVAN MULLICK: That was your first
time on stage by yourself.
CAINE MONROY: Yeah.
NIRVAN MULLICK: I love this picture.
This is Caine backstage, making games out of the
pamphlets that they had.
He did the same thing when we were in Paris.
This is a photo from--
this was Caine's Arcade for the Day of Play last year,
right across the street.
We had to expand for the day.
We had over 800 folks come out and play.
Kids brought their arcade games.
Made new arcade games.
Caine added the mayor to his staff.
And he got a cardboard key to the city, which was superfine.
He got a billboard, too, which was always one of his things
he asked his dad.
Like, can I get a billboard to start my arcade?
And his dad was like before, it's a little
bit out of the budget.
But people still come out to play Caine's Arcade from all
over the world.
How many customers do you get when you open up?
CAINE MONROY: Around 50 through 100.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Wow.
It's been a year and a half since the flash mob, a year
since the film came out.
When we went to Paris together, Caine was like
finding cardboard tubes in the alley.
Just nonstop playing.
On the way back, on the flight back, I wanted to know.
I was like, curiously, Caine, what have you
learned from all this?
What have you learned?
So I asked him to write down a few things that he learned.
But we didn't have any paper.
So he wrote down these five lessons with the
Air France barf bag.
So these are "Caine's 5 Lessons on a Barf Bag." Will
you read them out for us, Caine?
CAINE MONROY: [INAUDIBLE]?
NIRVAN MULLICK: This is "What Did Caine Learn?"
CAINE MONROY: "Be nice to customers.
Do a business that is fun.
Do not give up.
Start with what you have.
Use recycled stuff."
NIRVAN MULLICK: Pretty awesome.
[APPLAUSE]
NIRVAN MULLICK: First thing, I love that he circled, "Do not
give up," with a squiggly circle, and underlined it
three times.
I think that's my motto as well.
This has become my business plan for the Imagination
Foundation.
I've learned a lot, too, from this.
It's been a life-changing year for both of us.
The first thing I learned is it doesn't take much to change
the life of a child.
Sometimes just giving a kid a high five at just the right
moment, or stopping to play.
Also, the next time you go buy a door handle, you never know
what's going to happen.
The smallest moments can sometimes
have the biggest impact.
And finally, it was always buy the Fun Pass.
That was a fun moment.
So that's our little slides, and talks.
And we invite you all to play, through Caine's Arcade and the
Imagination Foundation, In our next Cardboard Challenge.
You guys can go and see ways to bring this to your
community, and help us reach a million kids in 70 countries
with creative play.
Oh, and if you have any questions.
Yes?
AUDIENCE: What did you spend your $20,000 on?
CAINE MONROY: It's for college.
AUDIENCE: Oh, yeah.
NIRVAN MULLICK: The question was, what has Caine spent his
money on that he's made?
But you made a fair amount selling Fun Passes at your
arcade and stuff, right?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
NIRVAN MULLICK: What do you spend all that on?
CAINE MONROY: Prizes.
NIRVAN MULLICK: For the arcade?
Like investing back in the business?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
NIRVAN MULLICK: But not just in your business.
Like you've been able to buy a few things
for fun, too, right?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
NIRVAN MULLICK: What kind of stuff do you buy?
CAINE MONROY: Nerf guns.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Nerf guns.
[LAUGHTER]
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine also saved up for his first
go-kart, His first car.
So he bought a go-kart.
Your dad says you buy a lot of LEGOs too.
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
So LEGOs, Nerf gun, and go-kart.
Yeah?
You want to ask a question here on the mic?
AUDIENCE: No, it's not a question.
It's something that I [INAUDIBLE].
NIRVAN MULLICK: Well, go ahead and tell us.
AUDIENCE: I might go to Caine's Arcade.
NIRVAN MULLICK: That would be awesome.
AUDIENCE: I hope I can.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah.
Caine, you want to let people know when
you're open and stuff?
CAINE MONROY: This Saturday, I am going to be open.
NIRVAN MULLICK: What are your hours?
CAINE MONROY: Let's see, 9:00 to 3:00.
NIRVAN MULLICK: 9:00 to 3:00.
Caine sets his own schedule.
And I post it on the facebook/cainesaracade page.
We pin the hours on the top.
He's not always there.
I actually asked his dad recently, like how does Caine
set his hours?
And he was like, Caine has a wallet now.
And when his wallet is empty, that's when
we open up the arcade.
[LAUGHTER]
NIRVAN MULLICK: But he's also in school during the week, and
stuff, so we have irregular hours still.
Who had the next question?
I saw somebody.
You?
Hi?
AUDIENCE: What time do you open?
CAINE MONROY: 9:00 o'clock.
NIRVAN MULLICK: 9:00 am.
Sometimes 10:00 am.
George, do you want to come up, too?
Everybody, George Monroy, Caine's dad.
Come on up, George.
Come on.
Come on.
[APPLAUSE]
AUDIENCE: How did you get the idea of
making a cardboard arcade?
CAINE MONROY: I wanted to have my own arcade.
AUDIENCE: What?
CAINE MONROY: I always wanted to own my own arcade.
I just built one out of cardboard.
Cheaper.
AUDIENCE: Well, where's your store?
CAINE MONROY: Boyle Heights.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Do you guys know where Boyle Heights is?
AUDIENCE: No.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Well, you can actually google Caine's
Arcade, and it will come up.
You can see it on Google Earth.
And you can go down to Street View.
And you can actually see a photo of Caine before the
movie came out.
He's sitting there waiting for customers on the Google Earth
AUDIENCE: Do you like your arcade?
CAINE MONROY: Yes, very much.
AUDIENCE: Where did you get all the cardboard?
CAINE MONROY: From my dad's auto parts shop.
They get from parts.
AUDIENCE: How much money do you earn each day?
NIRVAN MULLICK: Don't tell him.
CAINE MONROY: Like $100.
AUDIENCE: Do you plan to expand the arcade?
CAINE MONROY: Maybe.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine's built a couple new games since then.
My favorite, I actually made a little movie about.
It's called Ticket Grab.
Where a neighbor was throwing out a refrigerator box.
Can you tell them a little bit about Ticket Grab?
How that works?
CAINE MONROY: Oh, I guess our neighbor was getting a new
refrigerator.
So they threw the box outside, and I just got it to use it
for Ticket Grab.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah, but Ticket Grab was kind of
elaborate, right?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
NIRVAN MULLICK: What did you buy to make Ticket Grab work?
CAINE MONROY: A leaf blower, and tape.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah.
Caine made a ticket grab out of this cardboard
refrigerator box.
And he's got a leaf blower that he bought.
He's got all these little prize tickets.
And he puts them inside.
Then you go inside the box, and he turns it on outside.
And tickets swirl around.
He made a clear, little portal door so you can see inside.
He also made an emergency exit.
At the top where you have to pull, he
wrote these rules down.
The rules are like, scream, yell, and have fun.
The emergency exit was after we'd gone to France, from the
safety descriptions.
He's been incorporating a lot of his travels.
Pretty cool.
AUDIENCE: Caine, what do you want to study
when you grow up?
CAINE MONROY: Engineer.
AUDIENCE: All right.
[CHUCKLES AND APPLAUSE]
NIRVAN MULLICK: Good answer for this crowd, Caine.
AUDIENCE: Could you tell me some tips of
how to get the arcade?
CAINE MONROY: Believe in yourself.
Don't stop.
AUDIENCE: What's your favorite game that you made?
CAINE MONROY: That claw machine.
It has a string on a hook, and it has teddy bears inside.
You try to hook it, and bring it through the hole.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine has started building these on
commission, so you can talk to him, and he can make you a--
He's made a couple cardboard claw machines.
I bought one.
The Exploratorium in San Francisco bought the original
claw machine.
They have in their permanent collection.
AUDIENCE: What's your newest game that you've made?
CAINE MONROY: Made?
I think it's a soccer one.
NIRVAN MULLICK: He's made some games since then that aren't
even in the movie.
AUDIENCE: Oh.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah.
CAINE MONROY: Air hockey.
AUDIENCE: Cool.
NIRVAN MULLICK: You want to describe how an air hockey
game works?
CAINE MONROY: Air hockey works--
there's like this really soft paper that
I use that's slippery.
Then I just got a cardboard, little like cardboard circle.
Then I make two things, like you hit it.
Then I made a hole.
It goes down, then you get it back, and keep on playing.
NIRVAN MULLICK: There you go.
AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE].
[LAUGHTER]
NIRVAN MULLICK: Can you translate
that question at all?
AUDIENCE: I'm scared.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Well, thank you for that.
I love that question.
It might be my favorite question.
GEORGE MONROY: Caine's Arcade.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine's Arcade.
CAINE MONROY: I said thank you.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Does anybody else have any questions?
AUDIENCE: What do you want to do for a living after college?
NIRVAN MULLICK: What you want to do for a
living after college?
CAINE MONROY: Own my own arcade.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Keep the arcade going.
Caine is still figuring it out.
Like you've said sometimes, maybe a game designer.
CAINE MONROY: Yeah.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah.
AUDIENCE: Who was your first customer?
CAINE MONROY: Nirvan.
NIRVAN MULLICK: That's me.
AUDIENCE: What did you go there to buy?
Play?
NIRVAN MULLICK: I went there to buy a door handle for my
'96 Corolla, a car.
It had a broken door handle.
I'd never been there before.
And it was the only used auto parts store on the block that
had a little swing hanging from the tree.
So I stopped there.
And then I met Caine.
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
AUDIENCE: Did he have a door handle?
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yes, I bought the door handle.
[LAUGHTER]
NIRVAN MULLICK: George later actually put it in
for free for me.
GEORGE MONROY: It was the least I could do.
NIRVAN MULLICK: It's my magic door handle.
AUDIENCE: How did you feel after--
CAINE MONROY: The flash mob?
AUDIENCE: What?
CAINE MONROY: The flash mob?
AUDIENCE: Yeah.
CAINE MONROY: It felt pretty cool, like everybody came.
AUDIENCE: Are you going to make another one?
CAINE MONROY: Arcade?
Maybe.
AUDIENCE: How much does a ticket for--
CAINE MONROY: Fun Pass?
AUDIENCE: A Fun Pass and a four-try game, thing?
CAINE MONROY: The Fun Pass costs $2.00.
Then the four-try, we don't have anymore.
NIRVAN MULLICK: You don't have it anymore?
CAINE MONROY: It's just one turn.
NIRVAN MULLICK: So if somebody gave you $1--
CAINE MONROY: No.
NIRVAN MULLICK: They can't play?
Nobody has ever not bought the Fun Pass, that I know of.
It's a really good upsell.
AUDIENCE: How much does one turn cost?
CAINE MONROY: One turn costs?
You got to get a Fun Pass.
AUDIENCE: Oh.
NIRVAN MULLICK: But then you get 500 turns.
AUDIENCE: Could you buy a Fun Pass right now?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
AUDIENCE: Can I buy one?
CAINE MONROY: Yes.
Not soon.
After.
NIRVAN MULLICK: After this.
And we also have some Caine's Arcade staff shirts, if you
guys want to join Caine's staff.
AUDIENCE: How old were you when you started the arcade?
CAINE MONROY: Like eight.
End of eight.
AUDIENCE: How long did it take for the flash mob did die out?
CAINE MONROY: The sun went down.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine was working until what, like how
long, George?
GEORGE MONROY: Until like 8:00 o'clock at night.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah.
Caine worked until 8 o'clock at night, and then after all
the customers left--
hang on one sec.
AUDIENCE: How many kids did you get?
NIRVAN MULLICK: How many kids?
Like customers?
AUDIENCE: Yeah.
NIRVAN MULLICK: How many customers did you get?
AUDIENCE: Kid customers.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Kid customers.
CAINE MONROY: Like 50?
NIRVAN MULLICK: 50 that day?
We have a guest book there that's full.
You can come, when you come play, and you can leave a
comment, and draw a picture.
But after the flash mob, I mean Caine was
there until 8 o'clock.
The last customer.
Then afterwards, he was cleaning up the gains, putting
the toys away.
I got that last interview with him that was playing during
the credits kind of after that had all died down.
Got his first impression of what it was like.
AUDIENCE: How long did it take you to build your arcade?
CAINE MONROY: Pretty much like one year.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Because you guys see the pile of cardboard
boxes over there?
We're going to have a chance to build some games.
AUDIENCE: So you were basically Caine's
best friend, right?
NIRVAN MULLICK: I was not Caine's best friend.
We didn't know each other.
I went to buy the door handle.
I never met him before.
He asked if I wanted to play, and I asked how it worked.
And so I bought the Fun Pass.
I have my first Fun Pass with me, if any of you guys want to
see it afterwards.
I'll be over--
It's right here.
I keep it with me.
And every now and then, Caine's like, oh,
you're out of turns.
You got to give me another $2 to keep charging it.
CAINE MONROY: One month.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Yeah.
It expires after a month.
AUDIENCE: When is Caine going to grow up?
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine, when are you going to grow up?
[LAUGHTER]
CAINE MONROY: Let's see.
10 more years?
NIRVAN MULLICK: 10 more years.
CAINE MONROY: I'll be 20 years old.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine wrote an essay about growing up, when
you turn 10, going to double digits.
We have it on the cainesarcade blog.
It's really cute.
AUDIENCE: What's double digits?
NIRVAN MULLICK: Double digits.
When you turn from nine.
One through nine is single.
Then when he became 10, he's double digits.
Well, he just wrote down his reflections on getting older.
AUDIENCE: How do get the shirts?
CAINE MONROY: I buy them.
NIRVAN MULLICK: George, will you tell the story when Caine
went to make the shirt in Palm Springs, and design it?
GEORGE MONROY: We were in the store for like two hours while
he decided what color he wanted, what he
wanted it to say.
He wanted to put his address on it.
And he spelled out 'staff' because he didn't
know how to say it.
He didn't know what it meant.
He just knew that if you had it on your shirt, that you
work there.
So he spelled it out for the lady.
And the lady put it on.
She goes, oh, you want staff?
He goes, yeah, because I work there.
So then he wanted to put his address on the back.
And she goes, oh, no, no.
You don't want to put your address, son, because then
they'll know where you live.
He goes, I want them to know where I live.
So we ended up not putting the address.
But as you can see, this shirt is world famous now.
I think Nirvan sold over a million copies.
NIRVAN MULLICK: I don't think we sold a million shirts.
But we do sell shirts on the website, too.
Caine gets some money from the shirts, and the foundation
gets some money from the shirts, too.
Or you can go to his arcade and get shirts there.
He's got a couple of different designs.
AUDIENCE: Why doesn't his shirt say
'manager' or something?
NIRVAN MULLICK: We actually did make a shirt for Caine
that says 'boss.' So he has a shirt that says 'boss.' But is
it dirty, or did you outgrow it?
Or what's going on?
CAINE MONROY: Dirty.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Dirty.
His 'boss' shirt is dirty.
The boss--
AUDIENCE: Where does Caine want to go to college?
NIRVAN MULLICK: Caine, the question is, where you want to
go to college?
CAINE MONROY: I don't know yet.
NIRVAN MULLICK: He doesn't know.
He's gotten a couple offers.
MIT wants him to go.
USC wants him to go.
UCLA wants him to go.
He still has some time to figure it out.
TRISHA INGRAM: Thank you, guys, so much for coming.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Thank you, guys.
CAINE MONROY: Thank you.
NIRVAN MULLICK: Thanks for having us.
[APPLAUSE]
