00:24 Nah, we're good, man.

00:27 BMW 7 Series, bro.
00:28 I got it for the day.
00:30 Let me jump in, man.
00:31 Let's go on a ride, man.
00:33 So where we going in this lovely car?
00:36 Bro, I thought we'd just take a ride around LA.
00:38 Got this car for the day, so I thought,
00:40 I'm going to pick up my boy, Reuben.
00:41 I got my shades.
00:42 So let's hit the road, man.
00:45 All right, let's go.
00:46 Let's go.
00:46 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:58 Yeah, man, this is my city, bro.
01:01 How many times you been here?
01:03 I used to come here loads with my family when I was young.
01:06 Family?
01:07 Yeah, family.
01:08 Because I've got family here as well.
01:10 Last two years, I came with my friends.
01:13 We had a nice old time.
01:14 Milleting.
01:16 Yeah, man.
01:16 Get a nice villa, some nice food.
01:19 I saw you could blindfold me from wherever in the world,
01:23 fly me to LA from wherever in the world,
01:25 and I'd know I'm here just because of the vibe, bro.
01:27 Now when I get here, I just-- when I land, I'm just like,
01:30 yeah, I just know I'm in America.
01:31 I know I'm in LA.
01:32 Like, the people, everything.
01:35 The weather, everything's just different, man.
01:38 Even the pantries and that.
01:39 Look at that pantry.
01:42 Right now, though, the weather's similar,
01:44 because Milan was insanely hot.
01:49 Here's hot, but Milan's like-- the air is hot.
01:52 Playing in Milan and that here was one of the hardest things
01:56 I've done.
01:57 We're going to be in heat.
01:58 Oh my gosh.
02:00 You can't breathe.
02:01 There's no oxygen in the air.
02:03 And there's no rest to like--
02:05 no shade or nothing.
02:06 Even in the shade, you're like, oh my gosh.
02:09 Tell you what, though.
02:11 The way this car's moving.
02:13 Smooth.
02:13 Smooth.
02:15 All the bumps in the road.
02:16 This one's smooth.
02:18 You ain't seen that--
02:19 have you seen that big screen in the back, like a cinema?
02:22 Oh yeah, this.
02:23 Before.
02:24 Bro.
02:25 It's insane.
02:26 I wish I was driving so I could watch that screen.
02:30 How me and you met, yeah, is like--
02:32 because at the beginning, it was just kind of like--
02:35 because everyone's different age groups.
02:37 It was just like, people just get on the bus
02:38 to go training, do you know what I mean?
02:40 So someone would come pick us up in different places.
02:43 And I would get on like--
02:44 Dartford, you'd get on the stop.
02:46 I was always last.
02:47 Yeah, you was always the last one.
02:48 We'd go straight in, 25 to training, bang.
02:50 And back then, it's like, you just come on the bus.
02:52 You've got people who might be in your age group,
02:54 people who might not.
02:56 And obviously, because you're training different age groups,
02:58 and then when you get back, everyone's just like--
03:00 because you're just kids.
03:01 How old are you?
03:02 9, 10?
03:04 So everyone's just like--
03:05 you just make friends, you just start chatting rubbish.
03:08 Everyone just being dumb on the bus and that.
03:11 Talking about the game, talking about school,
03:12 everyone talking about training.
03:15 And then, yeah, man.
03:17 But that's how the drive went quick.
03:20 Yeah, how long was the drive?
03:21 Like 45 minutes?
03:22 45 minutes.
03:23 Yeah, 45 minutes to get to know each other.
03:25 You're just being stupid on the bus, just talking rubbish.
03:29 And then, now we're at AC Milan.
03:31 Yo, do you remember the first time you messaged me?
03:33 About Milan.
03:34 You asked me, what's Milan like?
03:35 I was like, huh?
03:37 I was like, why is he going to ask me about Milan?
03:39 That was early on in the year, innit?
03:40 That was early.
03:41 I was like-- do you know what it was?
03:43 It's because it was around international break.
03:44 So I thought you was just trying to come in,
03:46 go to Milan for a break, like a city break.
03:48 So I thought, yeah, Milan's nice, man.
03:50 Nice city.
03:51 Now the weather's getting better.
03:52 So yeah, it's decent.
03:54 Didn't hear from you again.
03:57 Didn't hear from you again.
03:59 And then you messaged me again later.
04:00 And you was like, oh, what's the league like?
04:02 I was like, the league?
04:03 I was like, Ruben, why are you asking me about the league?
04:06 [LAUGHTER]
04:08 I remember because I couldn't tell you, innit?
04:11 I couldn't tell you, oh, we was speaking and that.
04:15 And then I just left it, innit?
04:18 I didn't know what to say.
04:19 Didn't say nothing.
04:20 And the worst thing is, you said something to me,
04:22 and I replied.
04:23 And you just didn't reply.
04:25 And then I said, yeah, I'm coming.
04:27 And you thought I was joking.
04:28 Oh, yeah.
04:29 But it's just the way you said yourself, bruv.
04:31 I was like, huh?
04:33 He's like, yeah, I'm coming.
04:34 I was like, shut up, man.
04:35 Shut up, man.
04:36 He's like, no, I'm coming.
04:38 I was like, swear.
04:38 He was like, swear.
04:39 Yeah, and you was like, I'm going to wait.
04:42 I was like, I'm going to wait, then.

04:45 He's like, no, I'm coming.
04:45 I swear, I'm coming.
04:46 I'm coming.
04:46 I was like, OK, then, cool.
04:47 Cool, cool, cool, cool.
04:48 And I remember--
04:49 But you didn't believe me, though.

04:51 But then I remember when it started coming out
04:53 on the internet.
04:56 And people was asking me.
04:57 I was like, you lot, I'm not even going to lie.
05:00 Real Rupert's English and that.
05:02 And he asked me a bit about it.
05:04 And he said to me, he's probably going to come.
05:06 But I don't believe him.
05:08 I'm going to be totally honest.
05:10 I just don't believe it.
