"(music playing on TV) Holy shit." "(moans)" "Are you asleep again?" "Mm-hmm." "Did you miss that?" "Oh, I'm never gonna get caught up before season two." "What did I miss?" "K-Pax just killed Corey Stoll and made it look like a suicide." "Spoiler alert." "You just asked me to tell you what did you miss." "I know, but I didn't think you were gonna say that." "But that's what you missed." "Mmm." "Honey, go put your jacket on, okay?" "(grunts) Thank you." "Hey, can you take this?" "(sighs) What's the plan today?" "I don't know." "Do some laundry, might go to Trader Joe's." "I want to see if I won that raffle." "Colin." "Can you please write today?" "Please?" "Like, just take a stab at it." "I will." "(man speaking on TV)" "I will, it's just that the notes that Paul sent really threw me, and I'm trying to process them." "You know, I had some good thoughts, and I'm definitely gonna try and give it a go today." "Okay, well, if you're gonna go to Trader Joe's, will you get some wasabi almonds?" "Thank you." "(boy babbles)" "Buddy, what is going on with this coat?" "Come here." "Put your bag down." "There we go." "Okay." "Now..." "Hi, can I get a car to Manhattan, please?" "Grr." "Okay, let's go!" "Boy:" "I think we can skip." "You want to skip?" "Okay." "(people chattering)" "(car honks)" "Yeah, no, that's cool." "I'll be home in about 10." "The Guy on phone:" "All right, well, you're the first one, so it should be about 15, man." "All right, mate." "Cheers." "Okay." "See you then." "See you soon." "Thanks, man." "I'll give it a read." "All right." "Thank you." "Have a good one." "Bye." "(pop music playing)" "♪ Hey, I never ♪" "Aah!" "♪ Get it all right ♪" "Can you get his Batman pajamas out?" "He says he wants Spider-Man."

"He's actively trying to keep his fucking family together." "I know, I know." "And I-- look, I love the draft, okay?" "I mean, it's really important work." "It's probably your best work yet, okay?" "I think he's trying to say maybe you could make Davis a little more" "I don't know-- masculine?" "You know, like, make him a detective or he gets caught in a brothel, or his wife gives him a blowjob." "Right." "The thing about Davis, okay, is that he's dealing with feelings of crushing emasculation." "Man:" "Mmm." "Colin:" "Right?" "That's the point." "Mm-hmm." "Okay?" "And all his notions of fatherhood, and identity and everything are challenged when he becomes a stay-at-home dad." "That's the point." "Man:" "I get it." "You know." "It's all about you getting your vision fulfilled." "That's what we're doing here." "Okay?" "I'll deal with them." "It's your job to just write." "(pop music playing)" "♪ I..."

"Oh, awesome." "Yeah, so it's 85." "Woman:" "Cool." "Thanks." "Yeah." "(whispers) Eighty-five?" "Whatever, dude." "They're Norwegian." "Oil money." "They have a very high GDP." "$85 will get you a tampon there." "Come on." "So, no more AirBnB?" "Ooh." "Mm-mmm." "We didn't want to deal with all the legal stuff, they started taxing." "Besides, we had a couple of scary run-ins there." "Oh yeah, there's this dude from Des Moines, he kept putting weird chemicals in our blender." "Ooh." "Yeah, made a smoothie and was fucked up for two days." "That-- that's trouble." "Yeah, and he wouldn't leave." "I thought I was gonna have to get an old priest and a young priest up in here, you know?" "Yeah, yeah, I do know." "(phone chirps)" "Oh shit." "Is it already 2:00?" "Yeah, it is." "All right, guys." "Hey, Colin." "What's up, man?" "Coffee smells really good." "Yeah, thanks." "The Guy:" "Yeah, you at home today?" "(on phone) All right, so today, it's about an hour." "All right." "Thanks, man."

"I'm glad you enjoyed it." "It's good, isn't it?" "It's a lot of, um..." "There's some good stories in there." "Yeah." "I'm glad you liked it." "I mean, I was like, "Why isn't this guy calling me?"" "I have so many good stories about clients, man." "Crazy fucking people." "I'll bet you do." "Yeah." "Okay, look, man." "You're wearing a dress right now." "I can't pretend that you're not wearing a dress." "You don't usually wear dresses." "But you look-- you look good." "Oh." "Thanks, man." "Thank you." "I appreciate that." "I have another customer who crossdresses." "Oh, you do?" "Very frumpy." "Yeah." "Yeah, the-- the taste in the community can be a bit-- a bit patchy." "Yeah." "His taste fucking sucks." "Your taste is-- it works, man." "I'm like, "Where's my dress"?" "(chuckles)" "Yes." "It's Rachel Comey." "(soft rock music playing)" "So mein kampf with this one is that it reminds me of these throw pillows my old roommate used to have." "I mean, they literally looked just like this." "And she had psoriasis." "So, when I look at it, all I can think about are dead skin flakes." "I mean, I know there's no skin, in this coat... (cell phone buzzes) ...but I don't" "(clears throat) It's hard for me." "Sorry, this is my kid's daycare." "(laughs)" "Looks like a Muppet or something, like the thin mint monster." "That's funny." "You guys should use that." "Yeah." "This is Rebecca." "Is everything okay?" "(on phone) Becky." "Jacqueline from Sunny Days." "Ollie's fine, but he's thrown up a couple of times." "Oh." "Well, did you try calling my husband?" "He should be home." "We tried him a few times, but he's not picking up." "Okay." "(buzzes) (lighter flicks)" "(The Guy inhales)" "Yeah, I bet it's very hard to follow that up." "It is, man." "It's like I hit on something in a very, very specific moment in time that people really gravitated towards, and they expect more of it." "They want more of it, and it just, you know..." "It doesn't come, and you can't force that shit, you know?" "Yeah." "I mean, you do have the support of your wife's job." "That's kind of nice." "(rock music playing) But... that has its complications, too." "As I'm sure you know." "Know about what?" "Oh, you know, married life and shit." "Oh, I'm not married, man." "That's not a-- that's not a wedding band?" "Oh." "I, uh" "I wear this because I think it makes me look more trustworthy." "What do you mean?" "Well, you know, I'm a stranger," "I'm going into people's homes and shit." "This is a suggestion that maybe somebody out there trusts me." "That's interesting." "(snorts) It sounds funny saying it out loud." "No, no, no, you've got a point." "You don't feel like you're betraying people's trust?" "I mean, do your wife know that you wear Rachel Comey?" "Becky:" "Come on, honey." "(Ollie babbling)" "Hold the rail, please." "Hey, how you doing?" "Hey, good." "How are you?" "I'm pretty good." "Have a good day." "Becky:" "You too."

"Can you just give him a bath and call Dr. Weissman?" "That's ginger ale I got for him." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure." "I'm sorry, sweetie." "Feel better." "Mwah." "It's fine." "I've got this." "It's okay." "No, Colin, this is not okay." "(door closes)" "Did-- did she seem mad?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Colin:" "Good night, buddy." "Ollie:" "Good night, Daddy." "Love you." "How's our guy?" "Mmm..." "He's all right." "Do I need to go back in there again?" "No, he'll be asleep in a minute." "So, I don't want to keep harping on what I was saying earlier, but I just" " I need you to understand my point of view, man." "'Cause I'm working insanely hard right now, and I had to leave a super-intense sales meeting and it wasn't like it was for any good reason." "I know." "I know, I know." "No, I know you know, but you can't just... sit around smoking weed all day while I'm working." "It just doesn't work for me." "I'm not sitting around smoking weed all day." "I'm no" " I'm not." "I'm smoking a bit, but I'm wo-- I'm trying to work." "I'm..." "I don't know." "I feel like I'm supposed to be this creative guy and everybody's expecting this impressive outpouring of, I don't know, creativeness" "And..." "I'm stuck and I'm trying to work through it." "And, you know... and I was saying to The Guy today, "How am I supposed to do that if I can't even authentically tune into who"" "Colin, wait." "Did you let the weed guy see you dressed like that?" "Yeah." "You did?" "Yeah." "Colin!" "Yeah, I know." "What?" "What did he say?" "I know." "I know." "He was very cool about it." "He was?" "Yeah." "I felt comfortable, and" "You did?" "Yeah." "We talked." "It was good, and-- and it was kind of thrilling, and it was-- yeah." "It was a rush." "Definitely." "I like this." "Mmm." "I really like this." "Good." "(chuckles)" "I'm so proud of you." "Mmm." "I'm really proud of you." "Thank you." "♪ ♪" "Love you." "Love you too." "You didn't smoke all the weed though, did you?" "Bitch, please."
