2 minTim argues rich people's charity work and causes (like Erin Brockovich-style activism) mostly serve their own image, while Haley defends that charity needs a personal narrative; talk of a possible Big Brothers Big Sisters volunteer stunt for the show.
- 16:50Tim is on a junior board and considering volunteer work like Big Brothers Big Sisters or hospital visits.
- 17:05Rather than actually volunteer, Tim pitches making a TV show about himself doing volunteer work instead.
- 17:18Tim's logic: a successful TV show about volunteering helps more people than actually working with two kids with cancer.
- 17:29Framing the show as a way to teach the world that helping is fun and funny, making it sound like genuine public service.
