"It's these platforms." "No, it's a choreography problem, not a set problem." "If you just move the boys downstage during the U.S.O. number..." "Yeah, that would sort out the spill from this light here." " That's not bad." " I am a woman of many talents." "And that is why I love you." "[Orchestra tuning up]" "[Cell phone ringing]" "Ugh, I'm sorry." "Dev?" "Dev." "I was thinking of you." "Aw, that's so sweet." "But you just woke up my roommate." "It's almost 9:00." "We're doing 10 out of 12s, which means we work from 10:00 to 10:00, so..." "Then we're all wound up." "We go out." "Listen, I was thinking I'd come up this weekend." "That's great." "Great, okay, except..." "Okay, well, I have a roommate." "Is that a problem?" "I just don't want you to come up and pay for an extra room, and then not even have time to see you." "I'll see you at the theater." "[Knock at door] Karen, I need to pee." "You know what, can I call you back?" "I have to call you back, okay?" " Love you." "Bye." " Really?" "This desk is way too heavy." "We're gonna need smart casters." "Okay." "Oh, thought you were Linda." "Good morning to you, too." "Listen, I have a really good idea for a song for Karen and Ivy." "We agreed the shadow selves weren't gonna sing, remember?" "This is different, and it's already finished." "It's a number we wrote for Heaven on earth that got cut at the last minute." "It's a great number." "I'm not putting in a new song during Tech, Tom." "Could you at least try to be open?" "Why?" "[Exhales] Ted, hey." "You're not called for another hour, are you?" "I have to talk to you... both." " Everything okay?" " Great." "Well, great for me." "I got a pilot." "Ooh, a pilot, great." "It starts shooting next week in Las Vegas, so..."

" Everybody, say hi." " Hey." "Hi, Tom." " Oh, um, is that..." " Yes." "Frank and Leo." "Frank moved back in a week ago." "It's a little... we're still..." "But he's here, and it's, uh..." "It's going well, actually." "I think it's going well." " That's great." " I know, right?" "You don't need me yet, right?" "Because it would be so great if I could just stay home for just a little bit longer." "No, no, you know, it's Tech." " How's it going?" " Um..." "The desk for the mambo number is too heavy." "If we want to keep the choreography, we're gonna have to use smart casters." "That it?" "[Sighs] Just keeping you in the loop." "Okay." "[Background chatter]" "How'd it go?" "Did you tell her?" "Oh, it's called a spine, Tom." "I'm going to go into New York today." " I'm going to talk to her." " See you later." "Pitiful." "Bring it in." "[Piano:" "History is made at night]" "Okay... and stop." "He said "I love you"?" "It was a shred offhand, but he definitely said it." "You got any plans for Derek's birthday tomorrow?" "We're just going to go out for dinner." " Got a nice dress?" " A very nice dress." "Excuse me, did you say it was Derek's birthday tomorrow?" "Okay, we'll be taking it from the top, please." "Places, everyone." "Where's Ted?" " He got a pilot." " He got a what?" "Pilot?" "No one saw fit to tell me that my leading man has left the show?" "Yeah, we just didn't want to worry you." "Worry me?" "Half my scenes are with Ted." "We preview in two days, and you dump this on me in front of the cast?" "I need a minute." " Rebecca!" " Derek, I don't understand!" " Rebecca, wait." " You don't help me." "You don't talk to me." "Because I don't have time, okay?" "Look, it is Tech." "It will make you crazy." "It's all about the set and the lights." "That's what it is, all right?" "Listen to me." "You go to wardrobe." "There's a hundred costumes that need fitting, okay?" "And we'll find a better DiMaggio, I promise." "Okay?" "Good." "[Sighs] Ivy." "Downstage center, please, with Dennis." "Quickly." "Okay, from the top."

"Look, I know that everybody thinks I'm a joke." "Oh, stop it." "No, they don't." "Derek, you're having other people standing in for me." "You don't even tell me about losing my leading man." "I am just trying to make an already difficult situation..." "Stop trying." "What are we gonna do here?" "[Sighs] Okay." "[Clicks tongue]" "You know, Marilyn was always afraid of being a joke." "Well, that feeling of not being authentic, having something to prove..." "Use it." "Good." "Oh, and if I were you..." "I'd think about using your star power." "Don't throw it around, though." "Revel in it." "Find the joy in it." "It's your escape from the terror." "Okay." "[Derek speaking indistinctly]" "Uh, that's usually my thing." "What?" "Oh, I was just..." "It's okay." "There's nothing going on between Derek and Rebecca." " Everything okay?" " Yeah." "Just wondering if we're still on for dinner tonight." "Yeah, absolutely." "You'd tell me, right?" "I will keep an eye on it for you." " Thanks, Ellis." " For you, anything." "[Whispers] Revel in it." "It's so weird." "Dev is the love of my life, but seriously," "I so don't want to see him right now." "No civilians during Tech." "We're in the middle of a war." "They don't get it." "He doesn't." "I moved to New York with my college boyfriend." "Didn't end well." "We were throwing things at each other." " Really?" " Mm-hmm." "Places please, company." "Places." "[Knock at door]" "I heard you were sick." "Well, not sick, no." "Um... using my sick days." "I've been so marginalized, there's no reason for me to go in." "You bring bourbon to sick people?" "Oh, yeah, you'd be surprised how much better it makes you feel, whatever it is that ails you." "Come on in." "[Knocks at door] Hey." "I heard from Tom this morning how well things are going." "Derek staged the new number for the ensemble." "Things must be going well if you have time to run into New York." "I'm just gonna say it." "Ted's got a pilot." "We have to bring back Michael Swift." " Eileen..." " I wish we had a choice." "Our first preview is on Thursday." "He knows the part..." "No, we have to get someone else." "We can call Zachary," "Corey Harris, Matthew Tompkins..." "Any one of them could pick this up by then." " We don't know that." " You could at least try." "You have no idea what this did to me." "Eileen, I nearly lost my family." "Things are still fragile." "Julia, you can take some time off." "We'll bring him in without you." "You are not hearing me." "There's too much at stake, Julia." "I'm aware!" "And I'm not going to sacrifice my family, my life, for the theater any more." "Do you hear me?" "That's done." "You are taking this far too personally." "No." "Forget it." "Michael is not coming back, and that's it." " End of discussion." " Julia." " End of discussion." " Julia!" "It's just what happened." "They were protecting each other, and you had to go." " You can't take it to heart." " Yeah, great." "You're an amazing talent." "You'll bounce back so quickly, you'll look back at this and laugh." "[Laughs]" "You're really good to me." "I try to be." "To my plummeting career." " To rock bottom." " Good place." "[Laughs]" "I'm sorry, I can't." "Feels to me like you can." "I really can't, R.J. I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Yeah, I'm waiting, don." "Sometime before the seasons change would be nice." "Whatcha doing?" "Waiting to see Derek have a stroke." "Oh, my God, don, are you joking?" "If you cross-fade to this out of a bright yellow wash, everyone's going to think they've gone blind!" "Excuse me, Derek, a word." "How about "no"?" "That's a word." "Rebecca likes the gloves." " Really?" " She loves them." "We'll need more time." "Let's try and have a straight blackout, please... now." "They can't foist this on us, Tom." "Just tell them no way." " Okay." " Don't placate me." "I can hear it in your voice." "I'm not gonna lie to you." "The clock is ticking here." "Tom, you've seen actors come in the night before" " and be great." " We're making some calls." "Okay, whatever you do, you cannot cave." "You tell her that Michael's gonna be here when she arrives," " whether she likes it or not." " Yes, sure." "I'll handle Rebecca." "You handle Julia." " Everything okay?" " Fine." "No, not fine." " What is it?" " [Sighs]" "The actor playing Joe DiMaggio quit the show, and they want to bring Michael Swift back." " No." " That's what I told them." "I told them no." "Should I not have told you?" "I don't want to lie to you." "I don't want to lie to you ever again." "No, that's good." "It's good." "I-I just..." "I said no." "[Door opens and closes]" " Okay, what did she say?" " She's getting there." "Well, she needs to be there now." "By the way, I'm going to need a little bit of extra music for the lead-in to History." " Uh, what for?" " We have a costume issue." "So talk to the costume designer." "Tom, Rebecca is a house of cards right now." "If she needs a costume, we're going to give it to her." "Okay, but intro music into History is kind of a terrible idea." "Just come up with something please." "Why?" "Okay, do you want me to beg?" "Well, this is me begging." "Give me the song for Ivy and Karen." "Talk to Josh." "We're at places for History is made at night." "History is made at night..." "And in the morning and at lunchtime and during cocktail hour." "Oh..." "Don!" "Linda, Don, what cue is this?" "Oh, come on, people." "Oh, for God's sake."

"You still gonna go visit your folks today?" "Ugh, don't think I have a choice." "I wasn't even going to tell them I was in town, but my mom saw me in a publicity photo in the Globe." "Mm, they're so nice." "Tom wants to meet them." "Oh, that'll be fun." "[Mimicking] That'll be fun." " [Giggles]" " I've never done this." "Come on, it's good for you." "[Muffled] That is good."

"...can I have a piece?" "Sure, of course." " Here." " Thank you." "Here." "Thanks for standing in for me." "But I think I'm gonna stand in for myself from now on." " I need to get used to it." " Yeah, fair enough." "I appreciate you coming over, Eileen, but my position is unchanged." "Tom has agreed." "He asked us to talk you through this, but there's no time, honestly." "Well, that's on you." "You're the one who kept driving this forward faster than it should've been." "I'm very sensitive to this situation, Julia." "But ultimately, it was your mistake." "Now, I don't think it's fair to keep an entire production hostage over..." "I'm not holding anyone hostage." "I have millions on the line." "I have everything on the line." " So do I!" " Eileen." "Hi." "What's, uh, what's going on?" "Julia will fill you in." " Honey?" " Mom?" " Julia." " It's fine." "You guys, it's fine." "I need to talk to Tom." "I promise you, things are going to be fine." "Just... where's my cell phone?" " Julia?" " It's fine." "[Playing the 20th Century Fox mambo]" "♪" "♪ The 20th Century Fox mambo ♪" "Thank you, everybody." "Who is that?" "They call her Marilyn Monroe." "She's gorgeous." "I bet she's really gonna hit." "Blondes are a dime a dozen in this town." "You're never gonna hear from her again." "I don't know, I think she's..." "Okay, stop." "S... just please stop." " It's not terrible." " Do not tell me it is not terrible." "It is truly dreadful." "Isn't my entrance yet?" "Rebecca, how's that change coming?" "I never said I was a writer." "And Julia isn't here to write it." "By the way, now she's probably never going to come." "If we hire Michael, I don't know what she's gonna do." "There is no "if" about it." "She's gonna have to suck it up and be professional." "We can't expect Rebecca to rehearse without a leading man." "And I am not doing three weeks of previews without a book writer a lyricist." "Rebecca..." "Rebecca." "What is going on?" "The evening gloves are hard to get on and off when she's sweaty." "Your leading lady doesn't sweat, dear." "She glows." "Karen, Ivy, get out here." "Tom, I need a longer button on Mambo." "So what are we doing?" "Okay, during the extended button of mambo, you two will stand either side of her, take a glove each, and remove it gently." "Wait, we're taking her gloves off for her?" "You heard me." "Do it." "Dev?" "What are you doing here?" "I, uh..." "I had something I really had to do..." "Um, bring you flowers." " How much time do I have?" " None." "That is so sweet." "I mean, this is..." "This is really, really sweet, but I'm working." "Why didn't you call?" " Wanted to surprise you." " I'm surprised." "This actually isn't a really good time." "Oh, I don't mind waiting." " I can watch, can't I?" " Actually, you can't." "There's all these security things because of Rebecca, but I'll see you at the room." "I can't even watch?" "We're at the colonial lodge on Stuart, room 139." "I'll be there around 8:00." "Okay, let's take it again, please." "[Laughs]" "[Sighs]" " How's the search coming?" " Julia..." "You know I love you more than anything." "So it's true." "You sold me out." " I did not sell you..." " Okay, I'm done." "You tell them if he comes to Boston, I'm out." "I'm out." "So, what are the options if she quit?" "Well, we'd have to get a new book writer, and Tom might quit." "Then we'd have to get a new composer." "And pretty soon, it would all just be a ridiculous waste of time, we'd be in courts, and everybody would be right." "Right about what?" "About me not being able to do this by myself." "Plus which, I wouldn't expect you to stick around, given that your best friend is our primary investor." "Hey, it's just money." "$7 million is not "just money."" "Sure, it is." "Now, you're gonna have to go ahead and hire back Michael." "Let her make a decision." "Your responsibility is to the show, not to her, and right now, the show needs Michael." "But that's just what this know-nothing lowlife of a barkeep knows." "You know what?" "I have a thing for know-nothing lowlifes." " Really?" " Mm." "I heard that about you." "You know..." "I don't have to go to Boston till the morning..." "Technically." "Oh, I'm closing up early." "I'm calling the casting director." "Yeah, do it now, 'cause there won't be time later, I promise you."

"I was hoping to pass on my business sense, but evidently not." "Here we go." "Paul here, he's a doctor." "That's a solid, long-term profession." "You know, dancing is a profession as well." "You don't see so many 60-year-old dancers." "Ronnie." "I'm sorry, Tom." "We really do love theater in this family." "I take no offense." "Actually, Ronald, I agree." "Both:" " You do?" " I know a lot of dancers." "I've seen some real heartbreak." "You're just one injury away from financial disaster." "I like this one." "[Knock at door]" "Come in." "[Background chatter]" "Oh, it's you." "You're still here?" "Just wanted to make sure you were okay." "I'm getting there." "Listen, I thought of something else about Marilyn." "What was that?" "She glowed in the light." "Some photographer said it was 'cause she had lots of little hairs on her body, but that's not it." "She was luminous." "[Whispering] Like you." "I can act, too." "Oh, I know you can." "You, my darling, are a lovely little actress." "Hmm." "Thank you." "Why is it so damn difficult to get a simple compliment from you?" "There you are." "[Objects clatter, thudding]" "Can I be of help?" "Yeah, you can help me dry." "Okay." "Let me ask you a question." "What's the worst thing you've ever seen happen to a dancer?" "Oh, God..." "I don't even want to say what the worst thing is." "Blown knees, bad back." "Just... aging, and then what do you do?" "You can bartend or wait tables, but try retiring on that." "Well, I hope you can talk some sense into the boy, 'cause God knows he won't listen to me." "I don't need anybody to talk any sense into me, pop." "Sam..." "Hey, you know, when you and my father are done taking an axe to my life choices, maybe you can give me a ride back to the hotel." " Hey." " Hey." "It's kind of late." "What are you doing here?" "Oh, I'm looking for Derek." "We were supposed to meet at the hotel." "We're going out for dinner for his birthday." "You're not at your post." "Oh, well, they sent me out for a neti... pot." "She is not to be disturbed." "I'm not looking for her." "Eellis, can you handle this please?" "[Derek, low conversation, Rebecca laughs]" "Come on." "It's gonna be fine." "[Rebecca giggling, Derek, low chatter]" "This is nice." "It's nice to finally get some time together." " Yeah." " Dev?" "You okay?" "Yeah, yeah, I'm great." "Okay, um, Karen..." "A lot's been happening with me lately, and I've been thinking about the future." " And I love you." " I love you, too." "But after everything that's happened with me at work and you being out of town..." "I don't know how to say this, so..." "I'll just say it." "Karen..." "[Gasps]" "Will you marry me?" "[Gasps] Marry you?" "Yeah, it's not all that crazy, is it?" "No, of course not, I just..." "I don't know what to say." "Well, say yes." "I'm in Tech." "Is that the same thing as a yes?" "I'm so sorry, Dev." "I'm just under so much pressure." "Tech is so crazy..." "That's sounding more and more like a no." "No, it's not a yes or a no." "It's "I'm in Tech."" "Dev, I'm serious." "Yeah, I can see you're serious." "I see that very plainly." "[Whispered] Oh, my God, I..." "God, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "For what?" "I didn't mean to take sides." "Sure, you did." "Okay, then." "Maybe your dad is right." "Maybe you could start a retirement fund." "A retirement..." "You planning on giving me a raise now?" " If it was up to me..." " None of it is up to you." "Or my dad." "Tom, do you honestly think" "I have never thought about all of this before?" "I made a decision to do what I love to do, and I accept everything that comes along with that." "Whatever happens next, I accept it." "This is what theater is." "It is joy one day, and it's gone the next." "It's like a religion, and I don't apologize for wanting to be a part of that, and I don't wish for something more." "I really don't." "You are..." "My best self." "[Door opens]" "Oh, Lord!" "Two boys kissing!" "Paul strickland, what's the matter with you?" " He's like a child." " Get a room." "Not here, though." "Not this... not here." " [Giggles]" " Unbelievable."

"I could be in Washington, but instead, I stayed in New York and let Denby take a crowbar to my career so you could be in this stupid show." "Don't ever call this show stupid."
