"Thanks for coming in early." "I usually come in early anyway, so..." "Yeah." "I know." "Come with me." "Is everything okay?" "Yeah, just wanted to make sure you were staying on top of the material." "I know I haven't had a chance to work with you on it yet." "Oh, no, I know." "The stage manager does that." "What?" "That's what Linda told me, that when we're through with tech, she takes over the rehearsals and works with the understudies so we're ready to go on if we ever need to." "Which I'm sure I won't." "I think you'd make a brilliant Marilyn." "I see it, you know?" "In my head." "Really?" "Mmhmm." "[Sighs] Okay, just, um, stay on top of the material." "Oh, my God." "She's coming straight from the gym." "Randall, hey." "Can I talk to you for a second?" " No, actually." " I'm not kidding." "She's going to be at least 20 minutes late."

"Oh, um, can we start with something else?" "No." "It's on the schedule." "Uh, Derek..." "Um..." "Ahh." "I've had this great idea about Mr.  Mrs. Smith, which I need to talk to Julia about, 'cause it requires a little rewrite, takes a little time." "So, um, could we focus on..." "I've done a lot of work on Wolf." "[Clears throat] Give me a minute." "They are not going to cut Mr.  Mrs. Smith." "Yeah, well, I heard her." "That's what she told them." "She wants to cut it and replace it with a scene." " Ugh, she's a nightmare." " I like her." "You like everybody." "Excuse me, I do not like everybody, but I do like Rebecca." "She's very direct." "Okay, thanks, bye." "Hey, Karen!" "Rebecca, hey." "What are you doing tonight?" " Um..." " Want to go out?" "Sure, yeah." " Great." "Call you." " Okay." "What just happened?" "I hate her." "Would you please close the door?" "You don't replace songs with scenes." "I didn't say I would." "You didn't say you wouldn't." "There's a lot of ways to build a musical, Tom." "Like bringing in outside songwriters?" " Let's not go back to that." " It was hardly out of line." "It happens all the time." "People cave in to actresses all the time too." " Meaning?" " You're the director." "Why don't you..." "Oh, what is the word..." "Direct?" "[Chuckles]" "[Door opens]" "[Keyboard clicking]" "Oh, Julia, you have a message." "Leo called." "He said he's staying with your husband an extra night." "Great." "Now I have to take messages about my broken marriage from him." "[Sighs]" " Hey." "You're home." " Where should I be?" " No, it's just it's not even 6:00." "You're never home this early." "Wait." "Did you get fired?" "No." "He's not going to fire me." "It's too much fun to keep me around and torture me." " Aw, maybe you should quit." " Why should I?" "If they want to pay me to sit around and do nothing apart from come home early and take my girlfriend out for dinner, I'm gonna let them." "Oh." "I have a date." "With a movie star." "[Squeals] I have a date with a movie star." " Oh." " It's kinda cool, right?" "I mean, it's kinda cool." " Mm." " Oh, I have a date!" "Whee!" "Hey, Rebecca, smile right here!" "[Camera lenses clicking] Rebecca, would you turn around?" "Miss Duvall!" "Oh, looking good, miss Duvall." " Who's playing tonight?" " Cooper's about to do a set." " Oh, great." " Cooper?" "They're fantastic." "I love them." "Yeah?" "You want to stand in?" "What?" "You're supposed to be Derek's muse." "I want to see what you got." "Who told you that?"

" Nothing." "Hm, yeah." "Really." "Seriously, it's..." "It's not anything." "[Chuckles]" "Unless you want to talk about it." "What are we gonna do when she can't sing it?" "Because I am not cutting it." "We haven't even heard it yet." "I'm telling you, she cannot sing it." "And you have lost control of the rehearsal room!" "The only person who has clearly lost control, Tom, is you!" "Tom, Derek." "The company is waiting." "Right outside the door." "Well, let them in." "We have work to do." "[Sighs] Well." "[Clears throat]" "What should we start with?" "Actually, Tom and Julia have written a new number." "It's a ballad entitled Secondhand..." "Secondhand white baby grand." "Oh, really?" "It's about Marilyn and her mother, how she felt unwanted as a child." "Oh, is it any good, Tom?" "It's not actually for you, darling... sorry." "We're going to give it to Marilyn's shadow selves..." "You know, the voices in her head." "Thought they could take on some of the more internal songs." "Shadow selves." "Derek, maybe you and Rebecca and I could have a sidebar." "[Laughs] I don't need a sidebar, Randall." "I think that's a really interesting idea." "But you know who should sing it?" "Karen." "She's got a real rock star voice." "Thank you, Rebecca." "She does indeed." "Thank you." "Aah!" "[Laughs]" "What is all this?" "I did a campaign for Molly m last month." "I thought maybe you could use some of it." "Look." "This is a $2,000 jacket." "I know." "They gave me so much stuff," "I don't know what to do with it." "Seriously, you'd be doing me a favor;" "Take it." "You can't live your life in yoga gear." "I'd never get away with it." "Oh, yeah, but you're you." "Yeah." "Don't you want to be me." "Wow." "Who's that?" " Oh, that's my boyfriend, Dev." " Boyfriend?" "You live together." " Yeah." " Hmm." "Well, take it from me." "Boyfriends can be a problem on the way up." "Oh, Dev's not a problem." "Hmm." "He might be."

"Did he join you for tequila shots in the meatpacking district?" "[Giggles] 24hour news cycle." "You and your new girlfriend are everywhere." " They follow her around." " Yeah, and you too, apparently." "Wait, are you mad?" "No, I'm just confused." "Why?" "It's fantastic." "It's exciting." "Okay, but did you buy all this stuff?" "I mean, it must have cost a bloody fortune." "Rebecca gave it to me." "They give her clothes for free." " Yeah." " I mean, they..." "They do this for movie stars." "You know this." "No, I didn't, actually." "But, uh, I do now." "I'm learning." "As are you, apparently." "You'll like her." "She's so much fun." "This is cool, Dev." "This is cool."

"He already left?" "What do you mean, he already left?" "He never came home." "He's been with you for the last two days." "No, he hasn't." "What do you mean, no he hasn't?" "Yesterday I got a message saying..." "Julia, I got a message the day before." "He texted me he was staying with you." "When was the last time you saw him?" "So, who was the last who seen him?" "He was in school on Monday." "Um, his last class gets out at 3:30." "It's, uh, advanced placement American history." " Smart kid?" " Yes." "[Sniffs] And he works hard." "He's never screwing around." "He's always doing his homework." "Sort of a serious kid." "Very tender-hearted." "He's younger than he looks." "He was arrested a few months ago for smoking pot in Central Park." "Oh, so he's got a record." "No, it was dismissed." "I'm not gonna lie to you." "Running away is about the most dangerous thing a kid can do in New York." "Trouble at home?" "They're building sets in Boston." "And you have movie star problems." "Tom and Sam were talking about it." "But everybody's talking about it." "People start whispering about who's in charge because nobody knows." "This is what happens when a show starts to go down." "What did they say?" "They can issue a missing persons report." "They'll canvass the train station and the airport." "We have to go to his school, talk to his friends." "It's been two days." "He could be anywhere." "What do you need?" "Just don't tell anyone." "I need to not have Eileen and Derek flipping out while I deal with this." "How is Frank?" "[Sighs] We're both exhausted." "Where's Marilyn?" "Where's stage management?" "Oh, they ran out to the hall." "Rebecca was teaching her how to make one of her smoothies." "Smoothies." "[Laughing]" "This is a piece of junk, but what are you gonna do?" "So the kale goes in..." "With the coconut milk." "Don't you have an assistant for this?" "I have an assistant and a manager, but they're both working their asses off right now, trying to find me a decent place to live in Boston for eight weeks." "Yeah, well, Linda has production duties." "We're almost done." "Um, actually, it's best to grind the flaxseed and then throw it in, but we don't seem to have a spice mill, so what are you gonna do?" "It'll just take three minutes." "Give me that." " Rebecca." " Mm hmm?" "I start teching in a week." "I don't have three minutes." "Um, well, uh, if you could just do it all, and, um, and then bring it in, that would be great." "Thanks." "I will not have my stage manager hijacked to make smoothies." "Especially if we have to rewrite half the show just so she can do it." " What do you want me to say?" " I want you to say," ""Derek, you are in charge," ""and I will speak to our star and tell her how to behave."" " I did that last week." " Do it again." "How's the new song?" "Karen's learning it." "We'll start staging it tomorrow." "Which is exactly when I want to hear from you about what you're going to do to alleviate this situation." "This one." "Don't leave this till we're teching next week." "I called Bam and added your plus-one." "Thank you." "Yeah, they were a little bit confused because apparently Jerry's going to be there too." "Just thought you'd like a heads-up." "Ellis, there's something I need you to do." "Hey." "Ellis, what's all this?" "A vitamix, a grain mill, and a spice mill for grinding flaxseed." "Oh, they put you in charge of smoothies." " Yes, they did." " Hm." "Show biz."

"Sam said you guys were meeting up for a drink." "I wanted to come along." "Let me get my stuff." " Do you want to come?" " I can't." "I'm having dinner with Rebecca and Dev." " I wanted her to meet him." " Wow." "That's bold, since you're dating both of them." "Kidding, kidding." "Funny." "It's so weird that they write that stuff." "I mean, in Iowa, people think that's real." "My parents called three times to find out if I was a lesbian." "They better get used to it." "You're on your way." "And so am I." " See ya." " Good work." "Thanks." "We actualy don't hang on anymore." "If you don't hang out with him any more, who does?" "I don't know." "He's into, like, wrestling now." "Yes, we're aware." "Have you talked to the wrestling coach?" "Yes, actually, we did talk to him, as well as some kids on the team who said that we should talk to you, Mason, because you're his best friend." "I don't know." "Maybe the police could help." "It is so hard, what you're going through." "I can't even imagine." " Well, if you hear anything..." " Oh, absolutely."

"Uh, is this tap?" "I actually need something bottled... flat, not sparkling." "It doesn't have to be mineral water, just something in a bottle." " Fiji okay?" " Yes, thank you." " Mm-hmm." " Great." "Indian." "Sorry?" "345." "I never expected that to be an Indian restaurant." " Oh, I'm sorry." " Oh, no." "Do you not eat Indian food?" "I have a peanut allergy." " Oh, then you're fine." " No." "It's a real allergy, not a pretend allergy." "No, you're still fine." "There are no peanuts in Indian cooking." "Not even in curry?" "Well, that's Thai." "[Fake Indian accent] There's no such thing as an Indian curry?" "There is such a thing as an... an Indian curry, but there are no peanuts in it." "Some northern Indian dishes sometimes..." " Ah." " But this is South Indian." "We can go to another restaurant if you want." "No, no." "No." "I like it." "It's charming." "It's cute." "I love Bollywood." "Um..." "Do you have something without peanuts in it?" "The stillness they achieve, it seems like nothing's happening at all, and yet it's completely mesmerizing." "Wow." "You guys really like it." "You didn't?" "I guess maybe I don't understand art." "Actually, you don't have to understand it." "You just respond to it." "How does it make you feel?" "It made me feel pretty bored." "Oh." "[Chuckles]" "This is a merry crew." "Nina." "Ben." "Jerry." "Eileen." "I don't think we've met." "Oh, Nick." "This is Jerry." "Jerry, this is Nick." " And you are?" " Lindsey." "Hi." "Hello, Mrs. Rand." "I mean, hello." "We were just talking about the show." " I don't like it much." " Really?" "He's one of the most important directors in the world." "I wouldn't know about that." "Just think that art maybe should be a little more entertaining." "You're a populist." "Is that a bad thing, Jerry?" "Not if you're one of the masses." "Are you okay?" " Yeah." "Fine." " Come on, Tom." "You've been someplace else all night." "You hardly said three words to poor Ivy." "Leo's missing." "Leo?" "Julia's son." "He's... missing." "No one can know." "She's... they're looking for him." "How long has he been gone?" "Three days." "Wow." "[Elevator dings]" "Very interesting, your friend." "Ugh, Jerry, do we have to do this?" "I'm just surprised." "It's a little late to start dating the pool boy, isn't it?" "You know what?" "I'm bored too." "Let's go." "A woman after my own heart." "He's cute." "It's media." "You use them." "It's a game." "In my experience, the press don't actually like to be used." "[Chuckles] What do you do?" "Dev works in the press office for the mayor." "Oh, that's right." "That's right." "You told me." "And you are, um..." "How high up are you?" "How high up am I?" "Well, you know what I'm saying, then." "It's when you're in front of them, and they're coming after you..." "That's the moment you have to try to control it." "I mean, I like the press, but..." "So you want them to think that Karen is your lover." "Do you want some saag paneer?" "They said there's no nuts in it." "No." "I just want her picture in the newspaper." " I want her to be a star." " Why?" "Because that's what she wants." "Maybe she should decide what she wants." "Maybe I should." "Maybe you guys should stop talking about me as if I weren't here." "I told you this would be a problem." " I'm sorry, what?" " Okay." "Just hang on, both of you guys." "Your ego gets in the way, and, I mean, you're losing control of her, and it's scary and frustrating." "I mean, I know." "With respect, I just met you 20 minutes ago." "You're in no position to define my relationship with my girlfriend." "I'm just describing what I see and what I know." "So this is what she's telling you while" " you're running around New York?" " No." "No, no, don't go getting offended." "Oh, and you're the expert." "'Cause I hear your boyfriend Colin had to be escorted from the room using mace." "I'm just trying to help." "I think maybe we should leave." "I'm sure you're a great guy." " I love her." " You sound pretty defensive." ""I love her" is defensive?" "If you love her, you should want what's best for her."
