" Are you ready?" " Give me a sec." " You're ready now?" " I said give me a sec." "That was one second." "Very funny." "Hi." "Hi." "Hello." " Okay, yeah, I'm ready." " All right." "Here we go." "I'm going to take you now." " Not now." " That was not a request, Lucy." "Stop!" "Charlie!" "The time has come for you to reap what you've sewn." "Sewn." "Sewn." "I'm the master." "You are my mistress." "Wait, but... but, Charlie, but..." "Babe, that's your line." ""Charlie rips off Lucy's bloomers and enters her from behind." "It's animalistic." "Passion exuding out of every pore."" " Is this for real?" " Yeah." "Is that a real thing?" "Babe, this is not good." "This is not good writing and it's actually, like very degrading to women and I feel like we sort of see eye to eye on the feminism issue." " You know what I mean?" " Can we just do another take, please?" "R-E-S-P-E-C-T." " Find out what it means to you." " Alright, from the top." "From the animalistic fucking or before that?" "You want to get right before the animalistic fucking?" " Can we just take it from the top?" " The top of the fucking or the top of the scene?" " You want me to get you off?" " No, I'm okay." "Oh, God, I can't believe I ate all that ice cream last night." "I had a crazy fucking dream." " I feel so fat." " I wish." " Shut up." " Yeah, another 20 pounds..." "You're such a liar." "You're right." "Thirty, thirty-five pounds." "Shut up." "We're on this train to India." "And it was like, all these snakes on board." "These like little spiders." "There's like, like something about little spiders." "I can't remember." "And you were there and you almost got attacked by, like this lion or something like that." "And like..." "I tried to save you and I couldn't." "I kept going like, "I should have gotten that gun."" "I should have gotten that gun." "I should have gotten that gun." "Maybe you should write a movie about that." "I don't need suggestions." " I thought you were stuck." " I'm not stuck." "I think I'm going to get a gun." " We can't have guns." " Why not?" "We're liberals." "I don't give a shit." "When shit goes down, we're gonna want guns." "I mean, I think we should probably get jobs first." "All right." "Looking good, babe." "Sexy mama-ma-ma-mam-ma." "I have a meeting with my agent." "He said he wanted me to just come by today to talk about some projects and stuff." " Do I look okay?" " You look amazing, if that's all right." "Thank you." " What's your deal today?" "Are you writing?" " Yup." "Feeling inspired." " Really?" " Fuck, yeah, babe." "Bye." "Love you." " I made you a PB  J." " You're the best." "Also, Jim's out there smoking pot." "Don't just go smoke pot with him, okay?" "All right." "I don't even do that." "I will not." "I cannot and I won't." "No, you can't." "Because I'm getting old and my eggs are about to shrivel up and die and I want to have your babies and have a happy family." "And so we need to work hard and make money, okay?" "I'm all about it." " Love you." " Love you, too." "You're eggs aren't gonna shrivel up and die." "Yeah, they are." "Don't smoke pot." "Smoke what?" "I couldn't..." "I'm sorry." "I don't..." "I couldn't hear you." "Love you." "Hey." "How're you doing?" " How's Katie?" " We're good." "Good." "Ever bother you that she's such an ass-kicker?" "And you're just a stoner?" " I'm not just a stoner." " Of course you're not." "She's not just an ass-kicker." " No one's just one thing." " For sure, man." "Yeah, that's really what makes human beings so awesome." "Is that it's our flaws that make us beautiful." "And only when you can love yourself... can you truly love somebody else." "Where do you get this stuff, man?" "It's out there, you know." "In the air." "You just gotta listen." "Listen, and the universe will tell you all it's secrets." "No." "The weed." "My cousin grows it up in North Cal." "Nice." " Smoking hot, right?" " Yeah!" "I wish I was like that." "I just..." "I love that you just..." "you just stopped by." " Yeah." " That's great." "Oh, great tape for..." "Master's Maiden by the way." "Good!" "Great." "Thanks." "Yeah." " Which take did you choose?" " What you sent, it was great." "There were..." "I sent two takes." "One was like, more..." "I think just grounded." "And the other was kind of like... just a little bit more frantic." "Like, more like..." "It was great." "You're familiar with the book The Erotic Fictions of Nineteenth Century England?" "Yeah." "Of course you are." "I mean, chicks love that SM shit." "It's sexy stuff." "Yeah, really, I went through that book super fast." "I mean, how about Bryan?" "Right?" "Going straight from an Oscar to directing a cable mini series." " Crazy." " Crazy." "I guess he's obsessed with the book or some shit." "I hear he's a fucking maniac, but I mean, talent's talent." "Right?" "Speaking of the devil, Rebecca Moss had that part at the audition for unlocked." "But she's like... right now." "So she had to drop out last minute to shoot this new P.T Anderson thing." "Everybody's pissed off." "I mean, obviously going with you would be like, you know, a completely different direction, but... you know, they start shooting next week, so... they're fucked if they don't find somebody." "Oh, good." "You have any movie ideas, Loafie?" " Hey." " Hey!" "How's writing going?" " Great." " Are you stoned?" " No." " Are you sure?" "Yes, I'm sure." " What's wrong?" " Nothing." " Are you sure?" " I'm kinda in the zone here, babe." "Okay, super, super quick." "Casting loved my Master's Maiden tape." " That was the sex one, right?" " It's not just the sex one." "It would be a huge opportunity for me." "Bryan J. Macy is directing." "And he wrote it, and he's gonna play the lead." " He sucks." " He just won an Oscar." " Yeah, well, awards are stupid." " What is wrong with you?" "Nothing." "I'm great." "Other than the fact that I'm broke and can't sell a movie." "I mean, I think you need to write one first." " Fuck money." " Fuck money?" "Just bummed people need money for stuff." "It sucks." "Okay." "Well, I just pulled up out front and I'm gonna need a new pilates tape." "So can I use the living room?" "I'm using the space right now." " For how long?" " For as long as it takes." "Well, can you give me an estimate?" "By the way, you know you're not gonna get a job just by working out, right?" "Like you're the supreme expert on how to get a job." "You fucked Alex Wilson Dickson, by the way." "Where's that coming from?" "It comes from me having to see his stupid face on billboards everyday for his stupid, not-funny show." "Rebecca Moss is on the cover of fucking Perceive." "Give me a break." "She gave me half a blowjob one time." "You had full sex with him." "No, I didn't." "I just hooked up with him." "And what is half a blow job?" "Apparently, it's half the amount of blowjob you gave Alex Wilson Dickson." "By the way, we're going there." "Tonight." "He's having that dinner party at his house." "So, can you please just figure out a way to get over it?" "I'm not going to that shit." "I already told you." "I hate your stupid actor friends." "They sit around trying to pump each other up." "Trying to act like their life is so great." "Which, I got news for them, they're not!" "Okay?" "I got other shit to do, by the way." "I'm sorry, but smoking pot and jerking off, does not constitute other shit to do." "Okay, I was not jerking off." "I'm not going to that thing because I'm going shopping for a gun." "You're going gun shopping?" "Like, tonight?" "I'm gonna start in the daytime." "In late afternoon when my schedule clears up, and then I'm gonna continue until I find the gun that I like." " It's probably gonna take me into nightfall." " Why do you want a gun?" " For protection." " From what?" "From the fucking elements, babe." "Are you kidding me?" "From evil." "Evil?" "You're a vulnerable woman." "You need to be protected." "That's where I come in with a gun." "Honestly, if you wanna protect me, then make some money." "You think money's gonna keep you secure when someone is banging down your door trying to steal your fucking food and kill you?" "No one's gonna bang down our door if we're living in Hollywood Hills." " Why not?" " Because we're in the Hills." "Away from violent, hungry people." "Those people, they can't walk up a hill, then?" " No!" " Why not?" " Because they're too hungry." " You're fucking... are you kidding me?" " It's not a joke." "That's for real." " You kidding me?" "That is so idiotic!" "That is the most fucking idiotic thing I've ever heard!" "You know what?" "If you think money's gonna keep you secure, go ahead and leave me." "And then, just go marry some rich dick head like Alex Wilson Dickson." "How about that?" "Alex Wilson Dickson." "You're mouth, it's already been in there." "So that's like sort of old territory for you." " Fucking stuck in his dick." " Honestly... honestly..." "If it's between a rich dude and Mr. Fuck Money..." "I have to buy a gun so I can feel like a man?" "You can have money and then you're gonna mistake that for a sense of self worth." "Maybe I will fucking marry a rich dude." "You're such a dick!" " You're such a fucking..." "Fuck you!" " I'm not a dick." "It's the fucking truth." "I should answer that." "I have to answer that." " Why?" "So what?" " It's my agent." " Fucking take it." " Hello?" "Hi, Katie." "What?" "I got the part." " What?" "What part?" " The Master's Maiden." "I guess Bryan J. Macy watched my tape and said I was his..." "He said I was his girl." "So I got it." "Production starts next week in England." "Isn't that insane?" " This is gonna be huge!" " Okay." "Oh, my God!" "I have to stop eating." "I'm gonna be in like corsets and shit." "Fuck!" " How long are you gonna be gone for?" " Six months." "You'll come visit, obviously." "Why?" "So I can have front row seats to Bryan J. Macy fucking my girlfriend?" "No, thank you." "I can't believe you're making this about you right now." "This is a huge opportunity for me." " I gotta go." " Where?" " Coach improv." " Okay." "Wait..." "I can't be seen drinking OJ." "Do you know what kind of political ramifications there'll be?" " I'm a black man." " Black men drink OJ." "Listen." "Stop, guys." "This is why Capital Hill's going downhill." "Scene." "Okay." "That's was okay." "Was it?" "I don't..." "I don't know." "Be real." "Make a decision." "What's unusual?" "Play that, okay?" "Next scene." "Hey, roomie, don't... don't forget the rent's due next week." "Oh, no, I totally forgot." "I'm completely broke right now." "What?" "What are you talking about?" "What are we supposed to do?" "Well, if you can find a way to cover me, I can maybe find a way to repay you?" "I'm not quite sure what you mean by that." " You know, I could do you a favor." " Yeah?" "Yeah." "Like, a special sexy kind of favor." " What do you mean by special?" " You know what I mean." "Scene." "Okay, great, so what's the joke..." " Sorry, what's your name again?" " Abigail." "Or Abby." "Either ways." "Abigail." "Okay." "So what's the joke?" "Like, what's the game?" " That you're trying to be sexy?" " Yeah..." "What is that?" "Okay, here's the thing." "Like, here's a better question." "Where does that lead?" "You know what I mean?" "What if he says yes?" "Then what?" "Like, you guys have improv sex?" "So what?" "We sit here and watch you guys like do this?" "You have like improv sex." "You know what I mean?" "It seems funny and cute." "The problem is it's a slippery slope." "You know what I'm saying?" "First you're having improv sex, then you're okay with that." "The next thing you know, you're auditioning to be someone's sexual submissive." "And then after that, you're letting some Oscar-winning fuck head stick his dick in you because that's what you think it takes to be an actor." "Okay." "Next scene." "Don't take me wrong." "No, don't get me wrong." "I'm incredibly grateful for my job for so many different reasons." "I mean, not the least of which is that it's made me a heavy-hitter in the Twitter-sphere which I don't really care about." " No, honestly, I don't." " It counts." "Well, it does." "I mean, it's an amazing platform for my charity work, so..." "And then you've got the cast and the crew is amazing." "Except for... you know who." "I'm not gonna say any names." "I don't like saying anything bad about anybody." "But you know who I'm talking about." "And yet, some days, you just think..." ""Is this really making the world a better place?"" "You make tens of millions of people laugh every week." "You cannot underestimate the power of that." "No, I don't." "I don't." "I appreciate it." "I just... you know, sometimes it gets a little rough when you're..." "Fuck." "I'm such a douche." " No, you aren't." " I am." " We totally get it." " Wait a minute." "Stop this." "This... tonight is about you." " Beautiful..." " Stop." "No, it is." "I just want to say congratulations on your job." "This is gonna be huge for you." "Huge!" " To Katie." " Thank you." "Come here." "You know how long it's been since New York?" "God, so long." " Do you remember oeuvre oui?" " Yes!" "Of course I remember." " And the village culture?" " Yes!" "You were amazing." "No, you were." "You were." " You were." "You stole that show." " Remember the last night party?" " At that pub!" " I'm surprised you remember." "This one gets up on the bar, unprompted, mind you, and grabs on to one of the pipes and starts pole dancing." "I forgot about that!" "Yeah, I didn't." "I didn't forget." "'Cause then I walked you home." " Yeah." " Right?" " I'm sorry." " Hey, no, no, no." " No, it takes you back." " Don't be sorry, dude." "Okay?" "I'm glad that you guys hooked up." "I think it's awesome." "You can even probably say that I'm kinda stoked that you guys hooked up." "We all need lovin'." "Right?" "We're all human." "I wasn't around back then." "I'm glad you were to give it to her, okay?" "'Cause, hey, what are you gonna do?" "Not hook up with somebody on the closing night of ooboo qua?" "You know what I mean?" "After she did a sexy pole dance?" "Are you kidding me?" "In New York City?" "Sexiest city in the whole world." "It's awesome." "I'm so..." "I'm so..." "I'm so pumped that you guys hooked up that night." "Great." "When I'm acting, I'm the character." "Character's me." "There's no difference." "I don't get into character." "There is no process of approaching the character." "And there is no process of removing myself from the character." "Transcendent words from a transcendent man." " Bryan J. Macy..." " What are you looking at?" " My pleasure." " Nothing." "And now..." "What are you looking at?" "Nothing." "Just... whatever." "Okay." "You know, you still haven't said congratulations." "This is a huge job for her." "You need to support your girl." "I know, man." "It's just..." "just so far away." "For so long." "All right, that all may be true but I don't think that's what's really bothering you." "What're you talking about?" "Your girlfriend is playing Lucy Brighton in The Master's Maiden where she plays the maiden who's taken on a long journey into the depths of sexual ecstasy." "Where the lines of pleasure and pain are blurred." " You read the book?" " Five times." "I get it." "It must be weird." " I don't know." "I've never dated an actress." " It's weird." "Plus it's pay cable so she'll have to show her boobs a whole bunch." "Right?" "I mean, it's like basically porn." "Why is she agreeing to do this?" "Master's Maiden is not porn." " It's beautiful." "You should read it." " I'm good." "Okay, look." "I understand that on a primal level, this must be hard." "You know, thinking of the woman you love, being physical with another man, even if it is just acting." "But think about her." "Put yourself in her shoes." "She's gonna be freaking out right now." "With her body issues, and what not." "Come on, the last thing she needs is her boyfriend making her feel like she's a whore." "That's my two cents." "Oh, boy, she's up." "She's up." "She..." "What's all this?" "Congratulations, Katie." "Me and Loafie made this." "Thanks, babe." "That's so sweet." "I'm sorry for how I reacted." "You're a beautiful, sexy woman and you deserve to embrace that." "You should dive into this experience." "I'm gonna be right there with you." "I want to be the man who supports you in this." "Thanks." " Thanks." "I love you." " I love you too." " You smell good." " Thanks." " That is so sweet." " You smell good." "I'm dominating you." "What?" "I'm the master." "I'm dominating you." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry, babe, I can't hear what you're saying." "You know, like, like Master's Maiden." "I'm the mast... never mind." "Oh, no, no, no." "No, no, no, no." "Now I get it." " Babe, I just couldn't hear you." " No, I'm sorry." "Forget it." "What?" "No." "No." "It's great." "You can be the master." " No." " Yeah." "Come..." "Babe, you're the master." "You're dominating me." " Don't patronize me." " I'm..." "Babe, I'm not." "I'm not." "I'm just a fragile little girl that's helpless under your domineering power." "I need you to keep dominating me." "Seriously." "It's turning me on." "Fine." "I'll keep dominating you." "Okay." "Dominating you." "Take me again." "I got another one in me." "Before the lark sings, dear God, take me again." "It's from the script." "Isn't that beautiful?" "I love that line." "Do you wanna do it again, though?" "I should work out." "Okay." "Bryan J. Macy wants to get together tonight and discuss character stuff." "Oh, yeah?" "That's awesome." " Isn't that insane?" " Yeah." "Oh, wait, it's your show tonight." "That's okay." "I mean, you know, obviously this is more important." "I love coming to your shows." "You're very sweet." "But, babe, you've gotta go." " You're the best." " I know that." " Thanks for understanding." " Yeah." "Gotta spoil my girl." "Oh, my God!" "What am I going to wear?" "Oh, Jeez." "The toughest decision of all?" "Okay." "You may not care about yourself... but maybe you will talk, if I promise not to hurt your girlfriend." "Girlfriend?" "Who said... who said girlfriend?" "I feel like we're just kinda hanging out." " Thank you." " Thanks." "It's so beautiful here." "Yeah." "Yeah." "I wish I was a boat." "Maybe then I'll feel still inside." "Every time I get back on land, the restlessness returns." "I love that you sail." "What a powerful thing to do." "It's like... wrestle with the wind and the ocean like that." "I have these moments when I'm out on the boat." "You find a line, you get locked into it, everything else just fades away." "I need you to let go." " Of what?" " Of everything." "Nothing can come in between us." "Not right now." "I agree." "My God." "You're so beautiful." "Bryan, I should tell you." "I have a boyfriend... that I live with." "I think that's wonderful." " Jackson." " Good show, man." " Thanks." " What you got going here." " What's your name?" " Seriously?" " Take it easy." " Have a good one." " Hey." "Good show." " Hey." "Thank you." " It's Abigail." " Yeah, yeah, sure." "Thanks for coming." "Yeah, I've seen you perform like, three times." " You're amazing." " Thank you." "I'm sorry about the other day in class with that whole sexy, how-do-I-pay-my-rent scene." "So embarrassing." "And you were totally right." "I just don't want you to think I'm like a slut or..." "No, no, no, no, no..." "I..." "That's totally my fault." "I was just going through like weird personal shit, you know." "But like, definitely don't worry about it." "Okay?" "You're doing great." "Thanks." "Well, I know that technically I'm like your student or whatever, so maybe this is weird." "But I have a lot of weed in my car and no one to smoke it with." "Is there any chance you want to come smoke some with me?" "Jump by Kriss Kross and Jump Around by House of Pain." "'92 was the year for jumping songs." "End of story." "Yeah, but like, in '83, you had Jump for My Love." "The Pointer Sisters, the greatest grouping of musicians ever born." " Oh, yeah?" " Heck, yeah." "And Jump by Van Halen." "So, can't sleep on '83." "Very true." "Fresh greens?" "Cool." "Thanks." "I shouldn't tell you this 'cause I don't want you to think I'm a stalker or whatever but I have seen like every one of your videos." "Oh, yeah?" "Cool." "Thanks." "There's some clunkers in there." " Well, I like them." " That odd?" "Yeah." "And I love that web series you did like, with a girl about a couple moving in together." "Who's that girl with you?" "She looks so familiar." "My girlfriend." "Cool." "Really stoned." " Right?" " Yeah, me too." " Muchas gracias for the herbage." " Yeah." "Appreciate that." "May Jah bless you on your journey." " Thank you." " Okay." "Oh, hey..." "Can I get your number?" "Not for like a date or anything." "I'm starting another improv group and we wanted you to be our coach." "Oh, yeah, for sure." "Cool." "Cool." " You're cold." " Yeah." " Wear my jacket." " No, no, no, no." "That's okay." "Sam, give her my jacket, please." "Oh, you..." "I really don't need it." "Oh, all right." "Thanks." "Thank you." "Can I... can I have one?" "You know, women shouldn't smoke cigarettes." " I don't really." " It's really disgusting." "Here." "Open it." "Oh, my God, you're Bryan J. Macy." " I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." " Don't worry about it." "What's your name?" " Huge fan." "I'm Eric." " Hey." "Hey, game of chess, I gotta tell you that..." "You know I wanted to be a teacher, but I was addicted to drugs." " Meant a lot to me." " I'm sorry, man." " It's a pleasure to meet you." " Thanks." "It means a lot." " Good to see you." " Yeah." "Nice to meet you." "I desperately await my punishment." "I desperately await my punishment." "Eagerly." "Eagerly await my punishment." " What's going on, champ?" " Hey, babe." " What you got on there?" " Bryan gave it to me." "It's just I guess to work on character stuff or something." " Is that what you're wearing on the show?" " I mean, not this exactly." "I was researching corsets from that period and this is actually a little too modern." "But, yeah, something like this." "Do you like it?" " Love it." " Also, I woke up to a text from Bryan saying that he wants to have us over to his house tonight for a little dinner slash meet and greet with the producers." " It's gonna be tough for me." " Why?" "It's just the writing." "You know, had a lot of breakthroughs yesterday and, I mean, gotta see them through." "Gotta strap myself to the beast." " I mean, you know how it is." " Well, could you just not be that late?" "Life of an artist, you know." "It's tough." "I'm gonna try and make it though." "I'll definitely try and be there." "What time is it?" " Eight." " Eight." "I'll make it work." "You submit a personal firearms eligibility check application along with 20 bucks and your ID." "Get that notarized and include your right thumb print." "That's gonna take 30 to 120 days to come back." "Then you're gonna want to take the personal handgun safety test which is 30 questions..." "I'm gonna go and cut you off right there." "This all feels like a lot." "You know what I mean?" "Is there any way..." "would you kinda just like..." "Bypass the red tape?" "In what way?" "What do you mean?" "How can I put this?" "You know, like in Taxi Driver, when he goes and he meets that guy in the hotel room." "And the guy's got all the briefcases full of guns." "And he's like, that's a .38" "Magnum." "That's a snub nose." "I just sell high quality goods to the right people." "Do you have any stuff like that?" "Get out." " Leave the store." " Okay, I'm just gonna just..." "Let me throw this one at you." "I'll give you $72 cash up front for that shotgun, no questions asked, out the door." "Absolutely not." "Leave now." "Okay." "Thank you, thank you, thank you for seeing me last minute." "I am like... freaking out about this." "It's so much pressure." "You're like, the only acting teacher I trust in LA." "Okay." " Hi." " Hi." "Hi." "So what can I do for you, Katie?" "Well, I told you in the email I think that I got this part." ""Master..." "The Master's Maiden."" "The Master's Maiden." "Okay." "Which, you know..." "I mean, that's gonna be like huge." "What's huge about it?" "Yeah." "He's so..." "Yeah." "Totally." "Why do you think you attracted this part at this point in your life?" "Maybe like, something about... being sexy?" "Do you think you're sexy enough to play this part?" "I mean, I guess I am." "Or they wouldn't have cast me." " Right?" " I don't know." "So, yeah, can we just go over some of the..." "Love yourself." "Okay." "Yeah." "Okay." "Love... yourself." "I mean I do, pretty much." " Who are you?" " Hey, yeah, hi." "This is Paul." "Katie's boyfriend." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Wait there." "Remember, okay, we are the last line of defense for these poor villagers." "I look up and I see this kid... no more than six years old." "No shirt, no shoes, he's running towards me as fast as he can." "He's shivering..." " Hey." " Mr. Macy's not expecting you." " Well, my girlfriend..." " You're not on the list, I can't let you in." "All right, look." "I'm just gonna call her." "What am I gonna do?" "I can leave this child." "And I remembered where I am." "Lieutenant's yelling at me, "Come on, come on!" Gotta get back on the helicopter." "So I grabbed this child up in my arms and I..." "I run for the helicopter, and all of a sudden, just pop!" "His head explodes." "How..." "Fucking voice mail, dude." "Damn it!" "Look." "I get it." "You're here to protect Bryan from like crazy stalkers and shit." "I'm not that." "I wouldn't be here if my girlfriend wasn't doing some shitty series with him, to be honest with you." "Not even a fan of Bryan J. Macy." "Actually think he's kind of a hack." "Still not gonna let you in." "Yeah." "Well, I'm gonna go then." "I always thought... the line between life and death was thin." "But it took that moment for me to know... there is no line at all." "That is so powerful, Bryan." "Yeah." "It is." " The fuck!" " Paul?" "Hey." "Sorry, I'm sorta breaking into your house, Bryan J. Macy." "Your guy wouldn't let me in." "Katie wasn't picking up her phone." " I'm sorry." "My phone, it was inside." " It's cool, babe." " Cool tiny bridge, man." " Hey, what the fuck..." "Dennis, Dennis, it's okay." "It's all right." "He can stay." "Hey, I'm sorry I went behind your back, man." " Yeah, man." " Thank you." "He's a good guy and..." "he just wouldn't let me in." "I'm sorry." " Are you okay?" " Yeah, yeah, I'm good." "I'm good." "So, Paul, Bryan." "Bryan, Paul." " Nice to meet you." " No big deal 'cause you're here now." "But I was kinda hoping it'd just be people from the show." "What's that?" "No, I'm just kidding." "Gotta watch out for this guy?" " Okay." " Anybody hungry?" " Go inside." " What're you drinking?" "Apple..." " Appletini." " You don't..." "Okay." " That's cool." " Bryan made it." "I trip, I looked down." "It's this guy's foot." "He's been curled up underneath one of the desks at the preschool whacked out of his mind on drugs..." "Who knows where he's been the other two days." " Parents didn't know that he was doing drugs." " This was his process you know." "So we're like, get him in the wardrobe and get him in the scene." "I said, "Bryan, get up." "We got work to do here." "Come on, let's do the scene."" " What does he say?" " What does he say?" "He says, "My name is Chester."" " Like, the guy is still in charac..." " Character." " Yes!" " And disappeared." "I can talk about this all day." "I can talk about it all month." "No, I'm just happy to do it with you guys again." "So, Bill, you said you're an actor, too?" " Paul." " Sorry, yeah, Paul." "No, no, it's cool, man." "I'm an actor, you know." "Haven't won any Oscars." "Yeah, I act." "You know, a lot of comedy stuff." " Paul's an amazing improviser." " I am all right." " The upright bridge?" " Yeah, upright bridge." "Bridge service?" " Yeah." " The comedy thing..." " No, I don't..." " It's a comedy club." "It's real big." " You should check that out." " Pete, you gotta do that." "It's Bill." "Bill." "Paul." "I want to thank all of you for being here with me." "It's a real pleasure to dine with you." "But most of all..." "I would like to thank my little Katie bear." "For being so open and willing to go on this journey with me." "This thing is about to get so real so fast." "I had this room built halfway through my first draft of the Master's Maiden." "I refused to enter it till it was complete." "I wanted to experience it for the first time." "Just like Lucy." "To really get inside of her while I was writing." "What was that like for her?" "To feel a level of arousal that... she's probably never known." "Is she's scared?" "Excited?" "Maybe a little of both?" "The smell of the leather." "What does that do to her?" "Her life... as she had always understood it... changed." "In an instant." " Hello." " Katie, this is Jason Shepard's manager..." "Oh, yeah, yeah." "Okay, thanks." "Bye." "What was that all about?" "I'm leaving tomorrow now." "What?" "Why?" "I don't know." "Something about the location backing out or something." "I don't know." "Do you know what time you're leaving yet?" " Car's coming at noon." " Fuck!" " I'm gonna miss you so much." " I know, me too." "What do you want to do on our last day together?" "Honestly, babe." "I have so much to do, I don't even know how much time we're gonna have together." "What?" " What are you talking about?" " I have to pack and get a wrap." "I can't believe I drank so much last night." "I'm gonna be bloated for days." "Hi." "Hi, is there any chance at all that you have time for a detoxifying contour wrap today?" "I know, okay." "Thanks." "You're gonna get a wrap instead of spend time with me?" "I have to, babe." "I'm gonna be like naked and shit for this thing." "Love yourself." "Love myself." "I love you." "I love you." "What do you think Loaf?" "Is this crazy or we going to get killed or something?" "Oh, boy!" "Come on, Loaf." " I just had the detoxifying contour wrap." " With Michael?" "Yes." " I have a 3 o'clock." " Okay." "Rebecca?" "It's Katie." "I'm really good friends with Alex Wilson Dickson." "He's introduced us a couple of times." "And then... also, we're both with Gordon's at Synchronous." "So..." "Yeah I'm..." "I just had the detoxifying counter wrap so I must look totally insane." " I just did not recognize you." " I know." " How you been?" " Good." "I'm good." "It's actually so crazy that I'm running into you right now because I'm actually going to do that mini series that you I guess are unavailable for." " "Master's Maiden"." " Right!" "Hey congrats." "Thank you." "Yeah, but, oh, my God!" "PT Anderson, you must be flipping out." "I mean, Paul's a good friend, so when he called and asked me to do this," "I just felt like I had to." "And secretly I was happy to get out of that mini series thing." "I mean, doesn't it feel like your getting tied up and fucked over and over again in like a dungeon or whatever?" "I mean, not to say it's just..." "It's going to be an awesome job for you." "I just mean it's..." " No, yeah, I get it." "I totally get it." " Objectifying." " Yeah." " Totally." "Yeah." "So the contour wrap, that works for you?" "Yeah, this is only the second time I've done it, but the first time I totally saw results." " Weird, I kinda felt it was like bullshit." " Really?" "Yeah." "If I were you... this what I do when I wanna lose weight super fast." " What?" " I just put on like, the thickest warmest sweats I can find like a wool hat or just whatever." "A hat and I do jumping jacks." " For three hours straight." " Three hours?" "You'll wake up tomorrow and be super skinny." "Yeah, people will be worried about you." " I got to take this." " Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Go, go, go." " Is that Rebecca Moss?" " Yeah." " She's so beautiful." " Yeah." " Thanks." " Thanks." "Bye." "I'll see you soon." "I'll see you soon." "Bye." "Gosh." "Really is like Taxi Driver." "What?" "Fuck!" "What?" "Fuck!" "Please pardon my insolence, Master." "'Tis wrong of me to say it." "Please pardon my insolence, Master." " Hello?" " Hey." "Just checking in." " You okay?" " Yeah, yeah, just working out." "How are you?" "You getting writing done?" "You know, it's a lot of... digging and throwing stuff out but, yeah..." "Going to take a break." "Probably take Loaf to the dog park." "Oh, great!" "Yes, she'll love that." "Yeah, and then we'll come home around five like we planned?" "Okay, great." "Sounds good." "Love you." "Thanks." "I love you too." "Please pardon my insolence, Master." "Please pardon my insolence, Master." "Hey!" "Lucy, I'm downstairs." " Let me in." " I can't..." "I'm sorry, what?" "It's Charlie." "Open the door." "I'm downstairs." "Open the door." "I'm sorry, it's not such a great time right now, Bryan." "Call me Charlie." "Okay." "Yeah, just... just..." "Give me five minutes." "Okay." " Hey." " Hey." "Hey, babe, I'm so sorry." "I got to push back our plans tonight." " Why?" " Because Bryan J. Macy just showed up." "What?" "At our place?" "Why?" "Yeah, yeah." "I don't know, babe." "Honestly, I don't know." "He just showed up." "Can you imagine?" "Maybe he wants to rehearse or something." "Are you taking a bath?" "Yeah, obviously." "I'm all sweaty and gross." "I'll call you so soon." "We're gonna be done really soon." " Babe, I love you." " Okay." "Hello?" "What up?" "What?" "What did you say?" " What did you say?" " Nothing." "I was just waiting for you to get closer." "Oh, well." "Here I am." "What did you want to say?" "Nothing." " Hello." " Hello." " Oh, my God!" "Is that your dog?" " Yeah." " He's so cute." "What's his name?" " Her name's Loafie." " Oh, her name." "Sorry." " That's quite all right." "It's very common, you know." "She's not offended." " I can tell." "She's a bad ass bitch." " Yeah." "She's a..." " tough cookie." "She's good." " Yeah." " What's up?" " Do you... do you wanna get high?" " On weed?" " Yeah, yeah, on weed." " I could do that." " Yeah?" "Yeah, yeah." "Do you have it?" " I mean not on me, but at my place." " Shit." "Doesn't really help us here, does it?" "I... well..." "I could go back and get it." "Nah." "You're already here." "You already came." "It's fine." "I don't have to smoke weed all the time." "I can just be a regular human." "Or we could go back to my place?" "Yeah." " Yeah?" " I mean, do you wanna do that?" "Yeah, yeah, you know, that's where the weed is." " Good point." " Yeah." " I'm really close." "I'll show you." " Okay." "Okay." "You'll love this song." "Nice." "All right." " Good work." " Thanks." "Are you hungry?" "I don't know." "What you got?" "Let's see." "I have chips." "Or I can heat up some diet Mac an Cheese." "Sounds good but no, I'm okay." "Sorry." "I'm not much of a cook." "Actually so..." " It's fine." " Do you want a soda pop?" " Yeah, I'll take a pop." " Okay." "I'll take a pop." " Thank you." "I'll change it." " Thank you." "So what are you working on these days?" "This and that." "Writing a movie." "Holy shit!" "That's amazing." "I'd love to read it." " Nah, it's not done yet." " Can I read some of it?" " Definitely not." " Boo." "Boring." "I'm so hot." "Last time I'm in Paris, I took this crowning class." "With this like, awesome old French teacher who'd basically would tell us that we sucked and weren't funny." "But it was like, amazing, you know." "Who'd always tell us like..." "Fuck us mean focus, you know." " Do you know comedia at all?" " No, no, I don't think so." "Okay." "There's this thing." "It's called entrances and exits." "And so, you start behind the thing and then you just like, you enter." "And you have to be in a state." "It's got to be like happy, anger, fear, sad, right." "So you enter and your right at the audience and then you have a partner and then you toss it to your partner and then they take it and toss it back to you." "And then, that's basically it." " So, yeah." " Pretty cool." "It's pretty useful, right?" "Totally normal that I just took my bra off, right." "No, it's not." "Sorry." "Guess, I'm just weird." "No." "Let's do it again." "Let's do it again." "Come on." " Sorry." "Sorry, sorry." "Okay." " Come on." "Breathe." "Fuck." "Oh, God, I'm just a little nervous." "Oh, God!" "Start, start over." "I can do it." " You want this job?" " Of course." " Why... why do you want it?" " Because..." "It's going to be great and..." "Working with you." "Don't do that." "Katie." "Why do you want to be an actor?" " Because..." "I love it." " Why?" "Because..." "I like pretending to be someone else." "Am I doing something wrong?" " You scare me." " You scare me." "You got this production in the palm of your hand." "And no one knows who the fuck you are." "I mean, I don't..." "I don't really matter as much as you do." "You're going to be amazing and as long as I look good, and we have good chemistry or whatever I think it's going to be great." "I think you're right." "Where's that gift I got you." "Will you teach me?" "What?" "What are you talking about?" "Teach you what?" "Like... teach me how to be funny like you." " You're funny." " I mean, thank you, but like..." " You are amazing." " I know." " No, seriously." " I'm serious too." " I'm fuck..." "I'm fucking serious." " You are." "I am right." "No I was watching you last night and you're just like so present when you're on stage and so charismatic and no one can take their eyes of you." " It's hard." " I'm being serious." "I know, that's what I'm talking about." "It's fuck..." "I get it." "I mean, is that just something you have naturally or you have been like that since you were a kid or did you somehow learn that?" "I..." "I don't..." "I... both..." "I don't know." " Will you do a scene with me?" " What?" " Let's improvise a scene right now." " No." "Come on." "I'll start it." "Wait, let me think..." "Okay." "Thank you for my anniversary present." "I love it." "That's the scene." "Thank you for my anniversary present." "I love it." "This is dumb." "This sucks." "All right." "Well, I don't know." "Will you just tell me then?" "This is ridiculous." "What are you talking about?" "Just like tell me how you do what you do." "You could teach me." "I'll be right back, okay." "Okay." "Turn around." "Can you submit to me?" " Yeah." " Are you sure?" " Yes." " Don't fuck with me." "I'm not." " Are you my maiden?" " Yeah." " I don't believe you." " I am." "I don't think you know what that means." "I am, I am your maiden and I submit to you." "What are you doing?" "What are you doing?" "What are you doing?" "What..." "Bryan, stop." "What are you doing?" "I wasn't going to burn you." "What are you... are you insane?" "Maybe." "A little." " Hey, it's Katie." "Leave me a message." " Hey, why isn't your phone on?" "It's been like three hours." "Are you still rehearsing or what?" "Just call me when you can." "Okay?" "I went too far." "It's okay." "Let's keep exploring together." "I want to keep going." "I trust you." " Everything okay?" " Yeah." "Fine." "I got a gun today." "Are you serious?" " Yep." " Oh, my God." "That is so fucking cool." " You think so?" " Fuck, yeah." "I mean, I don't have one but I totally get it." "You're gonna want one if shit goes down, right?" "That was exactly what I was thinking." " Can I see it?" " No." "Oh, come on." "Please, I've never held a gun before." " Not gonna happen." " Please." "I'll be super, super careful with it." "I promise." " No way." " Come on." "Show it to me." "I should go." "Stay." "I'm gonna head out." "Okay." "This is all my fault." " What the fuck are you doing?" " I'm sorry." "Don't do that, okay?" "Why did you do that?" "Why did we do that?" "I don't know." "I like you." " Fuck." " No, stop." "Don't go." " I'm just..." "I just..." "I got to go." " Please, I'm sorry." " Come, Loaf." "We got to go." " Paul, please." "Do you have any idea the size of this thing?" "And what's at stake for me here." "Do you?" " Of course." " No, you don't." "It's your first fucking job." "How could you?" "Seriously?" "I mean, I did a pilot last year." "You have no idea what it's like to direct something." "Something that you wrote." "I have people calling me constantly asking me questions." "I created a fucking monster here and now it's eating me alive." "Okay?" "Look, I get it." "You are under so much pressure." "But, you know, you're brilliant and every one knows it." "This project is going to be huge for you." "Huge!" " Fuck!" " And, you know, you just won an Oscar." "I mean, most people can barely even dream of finding that kinda success, and you did it." "And you will always have that." "This mini series is gonna be amazing." "But even if it isn't, you've already proven yourself to the whole world." "Why am I so scared?" "I get it." "Having this kind of power is really scary." "I'm sorry for putting you through all this." "It's okay." "You're a beautiful, intelligent, sexy woman." "Nobody should ever tell you otherwise." "Bryan, stop." "I shouldn't." "You said you were my maiden." " I am, but I..." " Submit to me." " I..." "I shouldn't." "I can't." " You have to." " I..." " I'm the Master." " What the fuck?" " Oh, my God." " It's not what it looks like." " What the fuck are you doing?" "It's okay." "No need to get upset here." "Don't touch my fucking dog, man." "What are you doing with my girlfriend?" " Loafie, come here." " We were just exploring character stuff." "Exploring character stuff." "What the fuck is wrong with you?" "Hey, don't talk to her like that." "You better watch it, man." "All right." "You watch it, okay." "You're spending our last night together tied up, making out with this D-bag?" " We weren't making out." " Fuck you guys." "Paul, can I talk to you for a second." " Oh, my God!" "Are you Bryan J. Macy?" " Oh, boy!" " What are you doing here?" " Who are you?" " She's just an improv friend of mine." " I'm no one." "I just followed you here because I felt like I needed to apologize right away for what just happened." " What just happened?" " Paul and I just kissed." "I know, I'm sorry." "It's totally my fault." "I knew he had a girlfriend." "I'm a big fan of yours by the way." "You're great in that web series you guys did." "You..." "I can't believe I'm in the same room as Bryan J. Macy." "Just freaking out." "Sorry, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for doing that" "I hope it doesn't destroy your relationship in any way because that would really suck." " Looks like we're not the only ones" " Fuck you, dude." "You fucking kissed this girl?" "Who the fuck is she?" "Does it matter?" "There's obviously something going on between them." "So..." "No, there's not and you better fucking watch it, because I will shoot you in the face." " I am not kidding." " Paul, calm down." " You're gonna shoot me in the face." " Yes." " What the fuck you're gonna shoot me with?" " With my gun." " He doesn't have a gun." " Yes, he does." "Go ahead." "Come on." "Pull your gun out." "Let me see your fucking gun." " You want to see it, big man?" " Yeah, whip it out." " Oh, my God!" "Where did you get that?" " Don't worry about it." "Oh, my God!" "Oh, my God!" " No gun." " Are you okay?" "Oh, my God!" "Paul, are you okay?" " Paul, are you okay?" " Get out of here." "You're gonna hear from my lawyers, you fuck." "And you're fired." "Wait, Bryan, wait." "Don't leave me, just try and understand." " Don't go." " Oh, my God!" "Paul, are you okay?" " You should go." " I'm so sorry." "It's fine." "It's my fault too." "Just..." "Get out of here." "Please leave." "Now." "I'm sorry, again I'm sorry." " We are fucking done." " Come on, Katie." "No, you just lost me the best job of my life" " and you're fucking cheating on me." " I am not cheating on you." "Okay." "I coach that girls fucking improve group and it was only a kiss." " Only a kiss?" " Yes, which is a lot less than what I fucking walked in on." "She was not certainly dressed like a dominatrix." " We were fucking rehearsing." " That is bullshit." " Fuck!" " Oh, my God!" "Oh, my God!" " I took out all the bullets." " Obviously not, you fucking idiot." "Loafie." "Look." "This is not all your fault." "I shouldn't have done all that stuff with Bryan." "Felt like I should..." "I don't know, anyway." "I'm sorry, I'm sorry about that." "But I still think we should take a break." "I mean, you pulled a gun on someone, Paul." " I didn't think it had bullets." " Still!" "For you to do that or whatever." " Who was that chick?" " I don't even like her." "It doesn't matter at this point honestly." "Katie, please." "I'm sorry." "It's over." "It really is." "You can... pick up your stuff or whatever, whenever, but..." "Just..." "I just want to be alone right now." "Are you good?" "You look like shit." " I need your help." " All right." "Sir, are you expecting a package?" " No, Dennis." " Sorry, sir." "Actually, Dennis." "I think that may be my sterling silver director's chair." "Okay, sir." "Gates are opening." "Well..." "Hey... got a delivery." " Okay, I'll sign for it." " No, you don't have to." "I'll just bring it in." "I got to bring it in." "It's the shipper's request." "All right." "Excellent." "Thank you, sir." "You're welcome, Bryan J. Macy." " You need me to sign for that or..." " Nope." "We're good." "No signature required." "Fantastic." "Dennis, can you show him the door." " Let's go ahead and head out." " No, I got to be here." " No, you don't." " No, I gotta..." "I gotta be here." "What?" "Damn it, damn it." "Bryan, Bryan." "I know this is crazy that I'm breaking into your house." "I just..." "I need to talk to you for one second, please." "First of all, I want to apologize." "It was idiotic and dangerous for me to pull out that gun." "I shouldn't have done that, and I hope that you can accept my apology." " Fine." " Great." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Besides that, I'm here to ask you... beg you, to reconsider and give Katie the job back." "She doesn't deserve to be punished just because she has a crazy jealous boyfriend." "Or had." "She broke up with me, but I owe it to her to at least try to right my wrongs." "Please." "Please, let Katie play this role." "No." "What's done is done." "Dennis, get these ass holes out of my house please." " Come on." " Wait, Mr. Macy." " No, I'm done here." " But this is just like the "Master Maiden"." "Exactly." "This is just like chapter 5." "When Charlie almost banishes Lucy from his manor in Canterbury, after he's threatened by Sir Lyons of Nottingham Shire." "Okay, Sir Lyons and Lucy were arranged to be married, right?" "But then her father suddenly dies, and the pre-arrangement became void." "Which is great, because by that point, Lucy's totally in love with Charlie." "And then Sir Lyons, think Paul." "Is a jealous, petty man who can't get over Lucy." "Right?" "So when Sir Lyons walks in on Lucy and Charlie as Charlie is punishing her because she over boiled the sheep's pudding and he draws his sword." "Yeah, Charlie banished her at first." "But then he realized that it was Sir Lyons' fault the whole time." "And again think Paul when I say Sir Lyons, 'cause he's whinny and he's insecure and no impulse control." "Right?" "But that doesn't mean that Lucy should be banished." "Katie." "I think..." "I think you should let Katie back in the manor." "You need to get your Lucy back." " I got your job back." " What?" "I went to Bryan's and I begged him for it." "It's a long story." "Jim was involved." " But, yeah." " Oh, my God!" "I went to Bryan's and convinced him and he gave you the job back." "Paul!" "Thank you!" "Thank God!" "That's so exciting." "Oh, thank you!" "What?" "I'm sorry." "I just..." "I'm so grateful that you got my job back, but I still think that we need a break." "No." "Don't..." "What?" "We just..." "We've just been at each other for so long." "And... and... this whole situation was awful, but no." "In a way, I'm glad it all went down this way." "They past 24 hours has brought so much stuff to light." "Especially with me being in England." "I don't know how we're gonna fix it." "I know everything's not better just because I got your job back." "The truth is I never really loved you." "I thought I did." "And I said I did." "But I've been so angry and jealous... and insecure... there's no way that I really could have." "So I'm sorry." "I'm very sorry... that I didn't love you... the way that you deserve to be loved." "It's okay." "Can I hang out until you leave?" "Of course." "Cool." "Thanks." "You wanna help me pack?" "Well, I mean... that's usually an ordeal with you." "But, yeah." "I would love to do that." " Katie, what're you doing?" " I'm sorry." "What are you doing?" "I'm not going anywhere." "I just called Bryan, I quit." " Why?" " It just wasn't right for me." "Look, you were right when you said that you didn't love me the way that I deserved to be loved." "But I didn't love you the right way either." "But we should." "Because we deserve it." " So let's do that." " Okay." "I love you." "I love you too." "We need to get jobs." " Hey." " Hi." "I'm gonna get a coffee." "You want something?" "No, I'm good."
