Micro Budget (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Alright, speeding.

Untitled, meteor mor?

- It's okay. Try it again, Mike.

I's Meteor. Remember?

- Meteor.

- Meteor, yeah.

Yeah, you got it.

- Untitled Meteor Movie, take 1.

[film slate clicks]

Okay, let's all settle now.

Jenny, you look amazing.

This is the first shot of

the movie, guys.

Pictures up.

And action.

- That's action, everybody.

And an action on the documentary as well

Cut.

- That's a cut.

Okay, there's three different

people saying action,

so I don't really know

when to go.

- Yeah, yo're right.

Okay. So we should have

done this officially before.

So obviously, guys, I am the director

and I am allowed to be

yelling action and cut

whenever I want.

Right? I'm also told that

Chris, who is my 1st AD,

is also allowed to be yelling

action and cut, but only?

- Sometimes.

Tha's right, cool. And this guy

is Tom, uh, he's the DP

and he says, speeding.

Yep.

- And then, um, Nate over here,

he says, sound speeding. Yeah.

Um, back ther's a grip, his

name is Murph and he's, um?

Actually, my name's Mike,

but Murph is cool too, so?

Back ther's Mike, and then

this guy is my cousin Devin.

He should not be saying anything at all.

He's recording behind the

scenes, so we're gonna ignore

him and his camera going

forward. Everyone cool?

Yeah. I've been on

a set before.

And tha's why we hired you.

So let's just sit back here?

And? speeding.

Speeding.

- Speeding.

Action.

- That's action.

- Action.

Hey man, I need you

to take this seriously.

Yeah, I am taking this seriously.

- Don't undermine me in

front of the cast. Okay?

I do want behind the scenes.

This is also a huge

favor to your mom.

Well, that's funny

because my mom said this

was a huge favor to you.

Stop messing with me.

I'm serious. I am.

Who the f*ck is this?

Tha's Steve, he's our

second camera operator.

You have two cameras?

Hey Steve.

You have two cameras?

Okay. You know what?

Cut this.

You know what guys? He's

kind of right. Let's, let's cut.

No, I say cut. Cut 'cause

I said cut. Cut.

You can cut now.

When did you cut?

[intriguing music]

Think we should

do the wide first?

So, uh, we'll get to that scene later.

I'm not too worried about

you knocking it outta the park.

[laughing] Okay. Thanks.

Appreciate that, Terry.

- Oh!

Hey, Erica. We haven't got

to your scene yet.

I brought you guys some

peanut butter celery sticks.

Oh? 'm good.

- We loved your tape.

[laughing] Terry watched

it like a hundred times.

[laughing] Oh!

Thanks, that's? yeah, that's

really sweet of you.

Um, I'm really looking

forward to working with you.

Oh, you too!

[celery crunching]

Oh my god, these are so f*cking good.

[both laughing]

Have as many as you want.

I can always make more.

Thank you.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

It's really cool that

you guys are married.

Oh.

- Yeah.

Oh, you know what? We should

probably sh**t this scene.

[whispering] Erica, we should

sh**t this scene now.

- Oh gosh. Yeah. No worries.

'll let you work.

- [laughing] Okay.

- Okay.

So do you have any like,

projects lined up after this?

Uh, I? I think I'm probably

gonna try to get an agent.

You know, maybe this will be

usable for a reel or something.

This is perfect for a reel.

- Hey uh, Terry?

- Yeah?

Uh, we really, we're five hours

behind on day one.

We gotta keep sh**ting, man.

I know. Of course.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

Gimme one sec.

- Sure.

Let's try to keep up appearances

for the cast. Okay?

Why don't we keep up

appearances for the cast

by sh**ting the movie?

Then it'll appear like

we're working on the movie.

I mean, just don't be

a d*ck to me in front of?

[whispering] the cast.

- Okay.

A lot of people standing around

just waiting to see wha's

going on, so?

Oh, OK you know what, why don't we sh**t

Love it.

- Yeah. Cool.

- Terry had the idea to sh**t.

Let's get ready to sh**t, guys.

[intriguing music]

[indistinct chatter]

Here they are.

The dream cast.

Garry, Jenny, Erica, Phil.

Dream, dream,

dream, dream.

[awkward laughter]

All right. Uh, so we just shot

an amazing scene upstairs.

Jenny, you absolutely k*lled it.

- Thank you.

Jenny asked me a question

that I think every actor

should ask a director.

What was? what was

the question again?

I asked you about, uh, my motivation.

My character's motivation.

Bingo. So,

you didn't know

what your character's motivation was.

And I had never thought about it.

But now I know this movie

is about a big scary meteor

coming to earth.

Right? That's your motivation.

A big meteor coming.

Um, awesome. So I'm gonna mess

with the camera a little bit,

and then we're gonna get into it

after the crew finishes up upstairs.

Cool?

- Cool.

- Okay.

[quietly] This scene here...

So, how far along are you?

Oh gosh. Any day now.

[laughing]

Wait, and you're still working?

- Yeah.

I mean, Terry had this dream,

so I'm here to support him.

That's so nice of you.

- Oh, thanks.

- Wow.

I'm happy for him.

This is gonna be great.

And you both are from Iowa?

Yeah. Yeah. First time in LA.

It was either now or never.

Uh, everything's gonna

change when that baby comes.

So just kind of pursue my

dream of making a movie now,

before it's all?

over, you know?

Wow. So you're telling

me this movie is like

a metaphor.

For what you're

going through in real life.

Like, the meteor is like the baby,

and once it hits everything's different.

Ooh yeah. Kind of like uh...

Eraserhead. Yeah?

What? No, i's about

a deadly meteor.

Yeah but I'm saying there's things that

can read in between the lines.

References.

- Yeah.

- Subtext. Right.

Okay. It sounds like

w've got a big problem.

None of you read the script?

You think this movie's about a baby?

- No no no.

No we read the script.

- Multiple times.

- 'm just saying like,

as the reader, we see the subtext.

I's about a meteor, Garry.

Terry, while you're here, um...

why am I wearing this?

Well, you're pregnant.

I do't love that answer.

It's maybe symbolic.

Like you're...

- Of what?

The... well... you are...

of the old... world.

Like Jenny's of the new world.

Yo're of the old...

You know, of the old...

Isn't this just what

pregnant people wear?

Hey guys! I wanted

to introduce myself,

uh, before everyone eats.

My name's Jasmine,

and I'm gonna be handling

the catering. On set.

Uh, couple quick things.

Number one,

if you guys could check your

phones for local restaurants

to order from, because I am

sure you are not gonna be

satisfied with anything I'm providing.

And number two, this is not my fault.

The budget that I was given

only allows for food

that is very, very bad.

Okay, thanks. Thank you.

- Okay.

All right, everybody, uh,

Jasmine's just joking around.

This is one of Jasmine's

classic jokes.

- No.

I'm dead serious. No.

You need to pay me if you

want me to feed them better.

Which is why I happened

to bring my own delicious

salad from Crazy Salads.

I suggest you do the same.

Nobody has to order any food.

Oh yeah they do.

- We are stocked.

W're stocked with food here, OK?

- This is it.

For the whole production,

Jasmine's gonna be providing

food, it's gonna be fantastic.

As fantastic as... what...

what do we have

before us here?

- I don't even know.

If i's so fantastic you should eat it.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

- I had a... I'm full now.

I'm full.

- Full?

From what?

We don't have crafty.

- We did't eat yet.

Well, I had pancakes.

Pancakes?

- I just loaded up on

pancakes, so I don't... I...

but you guys should...

this is lunch.

- No.

W're not having that.

- No, no.

Looking at this...

We're already behind

and it's the first day.

I don't think we're gonna

be able to make the week.

Alright.

What's the solution, man?

The solution is we get you

in a time machine

and you land in LA two weeks ago,

and we do meetings,

scouts, rehearsals, et cetera.

Alright.

What's the real solution?

I... you're gonna have to

give up the idea of

sh**ting this thing in order.

I agree. It doesn't

make any sense.

You know, w're moving lights

and camera from

the bedroom, the living room,

to the kitchen and back again.

I's just k*lling our days.

Alright. That's

a non-starter. All right?

This movie goes in order.

Alright?

No one's gonna be able to keep track of

where they are in the story if we just

sh**t this thing willy-nilly.

What? These people

are professionals.

Most movies are shot this way.

Okay. You know what guys?

How about we do that?

And then we'll eat breakfast for lunch.

We'll have dinner...

for lunch.

And then w'll all sleep

during the day.

- Two lunches?

Yeah. I mean, this

isn't Pulp Fiction, Scorsese.

This movie goes in order.

No, no, no, no. The?

yes, the final cut

of the movie will be in order.

But we're talking about

like, sh**ting it in blocks.

Like sh**ting all the kitchen stuff,

then all the bedroom stuff,

then all the living room stuff.

And we may even wrap

early and save a few bucks.

Yeah. But then

it's all outta order.

Holy sh*t, man. No.

No we... you put everything

back together in the edit.

In the correct order.

Oh, okay.

So when I edit it,

I'm the one who has to do all the work.

Got it.

You're editing this?

[moody music]

Okay Phil, this is a huge

moment for your guy.

It's where you learn that

Toronto, where you're from,

has burned to the ground, okay?

Okay. And I'm... I'm

hearing it off the TV?

Exactly. So I'll be

the newscaster. Right?

You just react.

The more tears the better.

Yeah. I got this.

I think I can do that.

Okay. Picture's up.

You're watching the TV...

And...

[in a high-pitched voice]

Hello and welcome to the

Six 'clock News.

I am Becky. In sad news

today the city

of Toronto is burned to the ground

after a lot of people

decided to start fires there.

Why did they do it? The

earth is gonna be destroyed

and people are panicking.

They're... cut! Phil, what the

hell is going on, man?

You're not crying.

Your character's from Toronto.

I's just not working for me.

That voice that you're doing

is just not landing.

If you just stay quiet

I can just knock this one out.

Just let me do my thing.

Just say action. I'll go.

[laughing] Okay. Wow.

[sarcastically] Action.

Okay, this was better when I was talking

Just admit you ca't cry on cue.

- I can definitely cry on cue.

I'm professional.

[scoffing] Sure.

- Okay. Watch this.

[deep breathing]

Speeding.

If this is an act of God...

why would God allow this to happen?

Good. Now

keep that energy...

And instead of that

weird stuff you just said,

say what's in the script.

I can't believe Toronto's gone.

Drake died.

I can't believe Drake died.

Toronto's gone. I can't

believe Drake died.

Okay. Now it's"I can't believ"

for both those sentences.

So"I can't believe

Toronto's gone"

I can't believe"

Drake died"

I can't believe Toronto's gone.

I can't believe Drake died.

Alright, cut.

That was perfect.

Alright, hold for roomtone.

Tom, you're breathing like a tired dog.

Me?

- I can't hear the breathing,

but I can hear you talking.

Like a tired dog?

Yeah, you're breathing loud.

- Okay hands up, voices down.

Okay.

- Hands up voices down.

We'll try this.

- Oh, easy!

- Oh god.

[crickets chirping]

[faint movie dialogue from TV]

Hey, Devin, come here.

Pretty cool, right?

I read online that

Wes Anderson has his whole

cast live in a house.

Uh, but we're doing it

even cooler than him

because we're all living in

the house that we're sh**ting in.

So it's... well, the crew's in

a motel nearby, but yeah.

[oven timer beeping]

Hey guys, what's up?

[awkward silence]

That's the cast right there.

[Erica] Oh my god.

And, uh, yeah, we've been

having... oh my god, Erica,

this smells so good.

[chuckling]

Wow. You know, I think people

are getting pretty hungry.

Nobody touched their lunch.

- Terry can you please

give me some space?

I'm... I'm trying to cook

for many people,

and it is extremely stressful.

Please.

[Rodney Dangerfield voice]

Hey. Oh, hey. Must be

that time of the month!

I'm pregnant.

What, pregnant people do't get periods?

[whispering] Idiot.

You guys like Rodney Dangerfield?

[awkward silence]

You guys like Caddyshack?

Terry, can you please help me?

Can you do something?

I can't...

- Could you chop? Could you...

could you set the table?

Could you put the

plates and forks

and the napkins out, Terry?

Could you do something?

- No, I...

- Could you help me?

No I have...

- This is extremely stressful.

I have germs on my hands.

You have germs on your hands?

- Yeah, I have

germs on my hands.

Can you wash your hands?

- 'll wash'em.

Yeah 'll wash'em.

But there's no? soap?

[Erica sighing loudly] Come on.

- Don't, please.

Space.

Please.

- Alright.

[forks clinking on plates]

[quiet dinner jazz music]

So uh?

How much money does everybody make?

[quietly angry] Terry!

For a living.

Yeah, don't ask that!

- Okay.

How does everyone like the food?

- Mmm, so good.

My god, Erica, you did an

amazing job with this.

Really, really good.

Thank you so much.

I'm so glad you like it.

- Cheers.

Take it easy Garry.

That's my wife.

It's beautiful, Erica.

But I, I honestly, um, I'm not

eating nightshades right now,

which include eggplants

and, uh, tomatoes. So?

They contain lectins

and anyways?

- Dammit. God damnit.

Sorry. I knew we shouldn't

do lectins right now.

And I was talking about it and I said it

It's okay. It's okay.

Lectins are in eggplant

and tomato, right?

- Yeah.

I remember saying that.

I remember saying, no eggplant or tomato

There's so many lectins.

[whispering] No. What?

You didn't say that.

[whispering] No, I did.

[whispering] Okay. You... fine.

[whispering] I've been talking

about lectins all day.

- I's totally fine.

'm just gonna eat... salad.

So, Terry, uh... how did

you get into film-making?

So, um, so I was trading

these meme stocks.

And I didn't know what the

hell I was doing, you know,

and I was losing money like crazy.

Then I read about this

Paranormal Activity guy.

Did you guys hear about this guy?

He made that movie for like nothing.

And then he sold it

for like a bajillion dollars.

So I said, hey, raise some money.

Make a film, sell it for a f*ck.

- Cheers.

Phil, what about you?

What got you into acting?

[De Niro voice] You talki' to

me? You talki' to me?

Oh!

[laughter]

- Taxi!

I see what he did.

- Yeah. Yeah.

That's great.

What is that from?

I's just a movie I saw. I...

I studied the movie actually.

Like, a lot of my friends

got into musical theater,

but I thought that was boring

so I did"movie theater"

That's where... you learned a

lot of scenes from movies

in the'90s.

Hmm.

- I love nineties movies.

Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Yeah a lot of my friends,

they're classically trained,

but... honestly,

I kind of think classical

theater is boring.

Yeah, i's...

- Oh wow.

Yeah, it's just too, it's too...

- [sarcastically] Interesting.

It's too simple, honestly.

It's like TOO simple.

Classical theater is simpler?

- Seems like Garry has a

different take on theater.

Oh no. I just, you know, I...

come from a theater background.

Well he did"you talki' to me"

can you give us

some Shakespeare?

[laughing] Oh no, no, you don't...

You guys don't wanna hear me do...

- No. Come on.

- Alright, fine. Fine, great.

Um, this was my audition piece.

[clearing throat]

To be... or not to be.

That... is the question.

Whether'tis nobler in the mind

to suffer the slings

and arrows of outrageous fortune...

or to take arms against a sea

of troubles, and by opposing...

End them.

Thank you.

That's... that's all.

Did you write that?

- Woo!

No, that's Hamlet.

William Shakespeare.

Oh, so you're not a writer?

- I've written a few

things, but...

But you didn't write that.

You didn't write that.

- No.

- [sarcastically] Cool.

No.

- [sarcastically] Great.

- So, um, what's for dessert?

[flirtatious laughing]

- What?

No, it was just like, a funny

thing to say right now.

You like funny guys?

- Maybe.

I know a joke.

- Okay, le's hear it.

Really?

- Yeah.

- Okay um...

Are you guys okay with

me telling this joke?

Of course!

- It's an old one, we used

to say this at dinner too.

[angrily] Is it appropriate?

- It's... yeah, yeah, yeah,

i's very appropriate.

I's, uh...

Two, two muffins are in an oven, right?

And one muffin turns to the other muffin

and he says,"Oh my god,

it's so hot in here"

And the other muffin turns and says,

[Terry talking over Garry]

Oh my god, a talking muffin"

[awkward silence]

Right? Was that it?

That's the punchline.

[upbeat music]

[birds chirping and pool water rippling]

[electric toothbrush buzzing]

Hey Garry...

what color is your toothbrush?

Purple. Oh, no, no, no. Orange.

Have you been using this toothbrush?

- Yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the one. Why?

This is my toothbrush.

Oh, that's gross. We've been using the s

No, you've been using my toothbrush.

[laughing] Hey!

Whoa, dude. Maybe if you didn't steal my

maybe I wouldn't have used your toothbru

Dude, Terry gave me that line. Take it u

No, not taking it up with Terry.

You don't steal my lines and I won't use

So you're telling me you intentionally,

and maliciously used my toothbrush

because Terry gave me one of your lines?

Maybe?

[toothbrush hitting the floor]

You see this right? I can't work under t

That was a perfectly good toothbrush!

[buzzing]

Hey, what the hell happened last night?

What do you mean?

The cast, they're all stressed and upset

They're wondering what's gonna happen

with the movie after it's done.

Well, tell 'em not to worry.

I read online that these streamers are

buying like any completed movie.

I don't think that's true, dude.

Well, it is.

- No man.

I did this, uh, Rosemary's Baby found fo

Everyone thought it was gonna go big.

It's up on Vimeo for $5 rentals right no

Dude that's not gonna happen with this.

You need to be prepared for if it does.

I know I'm gonna get paid regardless.

But the cast is stressed, man. It's only

You gotta talk to'em.

Devin, cut this.

[You told me to film everything.]

Just put your hand in front of the camer

so I know to edit this out please?

- Oh, no.

You're editing the behind the scenes foo

All right, everybody. Hey everyone.

[Garry and Jenny whispering to each othe

I just wanna nip this in the butt cause

disrupting our workflow. Alright? Cool.

So it seems like some of you are concern

where the movie's gonna wind up.

Yes. Terry, I think I speak for all

of us when I say this thing has been a l

than we thought it was gonna be.

And since all of us are getting paid on

we just wanna make sure you have a real

plan for distribution.

'm sorry but Phil doesn't speak for me,

but I do agree with him.

I think a lot of us don't want this to b

of those found footage Rosemary's Baby t

It's not gonna be one found footage,

Rosemary, whatever that is.

It's not gonna be that. Alright,

we have a star attached to this.

Well, the Rosemary's Baby found footage

thing also had stars.

Did everybody see this movie?

- Yes.

- Yeah.

We all watched it last night together.

And you know what, maybe this would be a

to tell us who our star is gonna be.

Well, I can't do that because

that would ruin the big surprise.

Ooh you know what, what if we could get

Like, how, how many of you would just le

backend and trade that for your money up

Oh, 'm down.

- Yeah. I'd do that.

Guys, listen, I'm not having this conver

Okay? I'm not gonna give you money when

gonna give you MONEY, right?

So, um, everyone like watched a movie wi

Terry. Is there

A budget for this movie?

Yeah, I have financing in place,

but none of us should worry about that

'cause I'm very confident? it's gonna se

How do you know that?

Because it's got a lot going for it. It'

We have a great crew and we got the dive

I'm sorry, what? The diversity, what?

What the hell's the diversity angle, Ter

Well, you know, it's when a film is cast

it makes it an easier sell.

I'm sorry. Are you saying that you cast

us because of our race?

Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, obviously. You know, I read onli

to be diverse these days or they're not

Wow. I just can't believe

that yo're actually saying that out loud

You guys know. When you turn on the TV y

all these interracial couples, right?

But how many interracial couples have I

What? - Holy sh*t. - I know a bunch of

interracial couples. - Well yeah you liv

So there's real reality, and ther's Holl

And this movie has to reflect that other

where, you know, people of color hang ou

or, you know, whatever Jenny is, which w

Whatever Jenny is?!

You're, you're racially ambiguous.

No, I'm not. My last name is Suzuki.

I'm 50% Italian.

Okay. - Terry, let's table this conversa

You know, I wish I wasn't white. Yeah, I

How could I be r*cist if as the director

I wish I wasn't white.

You guys, we could all agree that it's r

to get something sold as a white guy, ri

Wow. - Oh my god. - Absolutely not.

The ignorance. - And that's good, is wha

'm saying. You don't believe me?

Name a white director who's working righ

I bet you can't. - James Cameron.

PT Anderson. - Michael Moore. - Christop

Rob Zombie.

Ooh? Michael Moore!

Okay. Alright. Point taken.

But you know, this is a different time

and those guys are also established and

Terry. That's the dumbest

thing I've ever heard.

After years of systemic racism, people

of color are finally making a little bit

of progress in this business.

And you're saying they're taking white p

The little bit of diversity that you see

nearly as diverse as America really is.

You're mad at me 'cause I

cast you 'cause you're black and g*y.

Is that why you cast me? Okay. I'm also

Does that make the movie better?

Chris? Is it good or bad to have a veter

Let's just wrap this meeting up dude.

It's not going the way you planned, I'm

Look, Phil, I didn't cast you

just 'cause you're black and g*y.

And a veteran. - And a veteran.

I cast you 'cause you were the best blac

who sent me a self tape.

Guys this is Terry's first time

in LA maybe someone should just explain

why what he's saying is incredibly offen

It's not our job to educate him.

Thank you Jenny. Exactly.

You know, I wanted the movie to be more

I wanted to hire a disabled person.

Well I am disabled.

Really what's your disability?

I have PTSD.

Oh my god, that's great. From what?

Tha's none of your business.

I have PTSD too. - Well, yeah, I mean, o

Obviously? - Yo're a g*y black veteran.

Yeah. You know, there's three reasons...

Hey. Sorry to interrupt? whatever this i

But the toilet's clogged again.

Yeah. Looks like sh*t.

[whispering] Terry, come on.

You need to call the Airbnb host.

[whispering] 'm not calling the Airbnb h

then they're gonna know we're sh**ting a

Okay well you need to handle this.

Well, looks like I gotta do everything m

Maybe I'll be the one who winds up with

Oh, ew.

Ugh.

What is that?

[wet plunging sounds]

Oh Jesus.

Bet you Zack Snyder never had to

plunge Mik's sh*t out of the toilet.

[peaceful music]

[lips smacking]

[birds chirping]

Hey man, what's up?

Hey, what's going on

man? How are you?

'm good. How are you?

- Good. What's this?

Oh, um, it's just a

behind the scenes thing

for the DVD.

- You're doing a DVD?

That's awesome.

- Yeah.

I feel like a lot of young

directors don't do that anymore

because it's old and insane.

And like no one will see it or hear it.

So I'm gonna be on a DVD?

Yeah. Is that okay?

Yeah.

- Okay.

That's Devin.

- Hey.

Oh, I'm the visual effects

supervisor here, I guess.

Um, I feel like all of

the sudden I have to...

Do...

- We can just pretend

they're not here.

I'm Rick, I'm the visual

effects supervisor here,

and I've got a little

something to show you here.

[both laughing]

Uh, these are a little rough,

but it'll give you the general idea,

and I think you're really gonna enjoy it

Wow. This is really cool. I've

never had to do this before.

I'm actually nervous.

- It's pretty fun, right?

Ready?

- Yep.

Okay!

This is nuts, watch this.

That's the meteor?

- That's the meteor.

Karrang!

And then obviously yo'll

put music over this,

so i'll be like:

[singing operatically]

Hum dah dum dah!

And then...

[singing and making

expl*si*n sounds]

And then all the boats

explode. And then

watch this...

Why is there a boat here?

I was going for like a Master

and Commander vibe.

Who's that kid?

- That's not a kid.

That's an old man.

Okay. Now this one

is a little bit different,

but I think you're gonna

like this one just as much.

Now the meteo's coming

at night? A different one?

And then...

- What is that?

[making expl*si*n sound]

Why is there a face?

It looks like a face but i's not a face.

I didn't know how to

remove it, so I left it.

What are the helicopters doing?

They're not f*cking, but like

I wanted it to seem like

you did't know if the

helicopters were

f*cking or fighting.

It's like a B-plot love story

between the helicopters.

Watch.

Wait, why is this boat back?

Rick? We don't need a boat.

Who's that?

- Watch?

That is a kid.

It's an old man.

It looks like a kid with a big beard.

A big grey beard.

- I's supposed to be an

old man. Are you ready?

[electronic music playing]

What the f*ck is this?

What is this?

Rich, what is this?

It's an alien.

What is he... dancing?

- Mm-hmm.

Does the motion capture look familiar?

This is motion capture?

- Yeah I did motion

capture for this.

What is...

Why did you do this part?

Well, it was an alien...

- What is this part?

This one... is private actually.

This one is not

supposed to be...

What is this Rick?

- This is... you do't have to,

I just pressed pause.

So could you not touch my computer?

Well I just...

- This is a visual

effects computer, so

please don't touch it.

It's more expensive than

regular computers.

- Well, I wanna see

the sequence.

This is a sequence

that isn't for the film.

This is a sequence...

a different sequence, uh...

Did you use the money that

I gave you for this sequence?

No.

- You did't?

It's a different, it's a

different project. This is...

And this was a MoCap suit as well?

This was you?

No?

- But you said the other part

was the MoCap suit Rick.

I... do you... what do you

think of it? First of all.

Do you think...

- It's really weird.

I's really strange.

Okay well you don't have to

use it for the movie, but, uh...

Yeah 'm not gonna use any

alien for the movie.

I thought you've done this

before. I thought you were

a professional.

I am a professional.

I... I'm drinking coffee.

When? Who have

you done this for?

Uh... Z Lanes, uh,

Pit Stop Lanes,

Buck-Buc's Bowling Extravaganza.

Uh..."Lane" with a"z"

Okay. Those are all

off-brand bowling alleys?

So what?

- Rick, you work for

off-brand bowling alleys?

Why are you yelling at me?

- Why am I yelling at you?

I's not ill*gal to work

for a bowling alley.

I paid you $20,000 to do this, Rick.

I know.

- And I'm getting an

alien who's stripping

and a kid with a beard on a ship.

Well like I said, this

was part of my file,

that's not, I didn't press the...

[keyboard snapping]

Ow!

[keyboard snapping again]

Ow!

I'm sorry. Did I hit your knee?

I'm fine. I'm more concerned

about you to be honest.

That was so weird.

That was SO weird.

- That was weird.

Sorry about that, Rick.

Okay, I'm really looking

forward to seeing V2.

Nice.

- Alright.

- Awesome.

DVDs! Still a thing.

[intriguing music]

[laughing and flirting]

Terry, did you touch this?

- Yeah!

Yeah?

- Yeah.

Don't do that.

I have this preset, man.

What do you mean don't

touch it? I'm just learning.

Okay. You can touch

the camera if I'm here.

Just ask me a question. I'm more

than happy to help you, okay?

- Okay.

So if you're not here,

what shouldn't I touch?

Everything.

Don't touch anything.

That's not realistic.

Alright?

It is TOTALLY realistic to...

- 'm GOING to touch it.

I'm gonna touch...

- Okay yeah go ahead. Touch

whatever you want then.

Okay.

- Okay.

Did you get the shot list I sent you?

Not yet.

- Terry!

You said you needed it ASAP yesterday.

I was up all night

making this thing, man.

I can look at it now.

You can get it... OK yeah.

- I can look at it now.

- There it is. Yeah sure.

Oh man. This is

perfect. Thanks, man.

You didn't even look at it.

You just glanced at it.

- It looks REALLY good.

What do you mean it"looks"

I just wanna make sure

you're reading the words.

What is this?

What is this?

That's just like, um,

I thought it'd be cool

to have like a top-down

shot over the bed.

How do we do that?

- Oh, I talked to Mike already.

We're just gonna cut a

hole in the ceiling. Right?

We just kind of put the camera up there

and mount it to a support beam.

Cut? No, I can't do that.

- Why not?

- I don't own the house.

I don't own this house. We

can't saw a hole in the ceiling.

Okay. Terry, what

do you wanna do then?

I wanna sh**t it on this thing.

What is THAT?

Are you guys sawing stuff already?

- No!

Wha's that drywall then?

It's nothing.

- Okay.

Yeah, that's just

for something else.

- Fine!

I don't want anything

to do with this.

- What's up, Terry?

Mike, what's up?

- Hey.

[pretending to laugh]

[whispering]

We gotta put it back.

We gotta put everything back.

[quietly groaning]

Where should I saw then?

Nowhere.

We can't saw anywhere.

He said we can't saw anywhere.

[Mike sighing]

He said we can't saw anywhere or...

YO'RE saying we can't saw anywhere?

Mike, what are you talking...

who cares?!

Just put it back please.

- Okay.

I's just, I know Terry.

It's just, it's not something

he would say. So.

He JUST said it, Mike.

- Okay.

- He just said it.

That's all I'm saying.

I know the guy.

[Mike sighing loudly]

I do't... you dont...

you JUST met him. Okay.

I think I'm falling in love

with you. This is crazy.

No, no. I...

I think I'm falling in love with you too

[uplifting cinematic score]

[both laughing joyfully]

Cut.

- CUT!

Jesus, man, would you stop

screaming everything

I say in my ear?!

Sorry that's my job.

We literally discussed this.

[Terry exhaling loudly]

Alright. I'm cutting this kiss.

What? Wait, why, why, why?

That's a... that's such

a HUGE moment.

- Yeah.

I just feel like you know,

the chemistry's off.

From now on no more chemistry

between you guys. Sorry.

It's just not reading.

- I feel like our chemistry

is really good!

Do't you?

- Yeah.

Chemistry wasn't off when you

had us do a chemistry read.

Right?

- Talk about it!

I know, but look at...

when you look at it here...

It looks like...

- Oh! We look cute together.

No, no, no, no, no.

- Terry, we really gotta keep moving.

Okay. Wait, wait, wait.

He... he has been talking

about taking control

of his life this entire time,

cause of the meteor and...

Mm-hmm.

- And all that.

And this is the moment

where he actually DOES

something about it.

So why are we cutting that?

Yeah. We literally just said:

I think I'm falling"

in love with you"

- Yeah.

You know what?

Good point, Jenny.

I think we cut the"I love yo" lines.

WHAT?! Why are

we on the bed then?

Yeah. Are't... we're like

the central love story

of the whole thing?

Why don't we do one

where the meteor knocks

Gary on the bed

and Jenny hates it?

Wait, what?

We really gotta move on.

Actually, I could use one more.

There was some boom shadow in there.

Yeah well maybe do't

move the camera without

telling me first?

Okay, Nate.

[whispering] Christ.

Hey man. How's everything

uh, sounding by the way?

I mean, it sounds fine.

On a technical level.

Fine.

Le's get you guys away from each other

and we're gonna, um,

did you say you need...

Ooh! You hear the leaf blower?

Everyone, leaf blower.

- Do't hear it.

- You know what, let's come

back to the scene later.

We gotta wrap this.

- I ca't even hear

that in here.

So w're fine.

We can keep moving.

I'm just gonna, I'm gonna

adjust that flag.

W're gonna need props to come in.

You got dirt on the sheets.

- Yeah.

Look, I'll just go talk

to the leaf blower guy.

I'll, I'll get him to stop.

Don't worry about it.

Boss, I hear you man, if the

vibe's off, you know

what I mean?

Thanks Mike.

- What can you do?

[everyone talking at once]

It sounds fine.

Why is no one even

listening to me? I listen to

everyone all day.

And then no one listens to me.

Tha's literally your job.

Okay. If you keep

talking to me like that,

then I guarantee no one's gonna

hear anything you say

the rest of the movie.

Whoa, whoa!

- Is that a threat?

Hey what are you doing, man?

- No that was a, it was

a joke, I was joking.

Alright great so we all

agree the chemistry's off.

We're not gonna sh**t this.

[cheerful music]

I mean, our country

needs healthcare reform.

- Mm hmm.

Like, okay, take me for example.

Besides my PTSD,

I'm a really healthy person.

You know, I obviously

take care of myself.

Now, is it fair then

that the dues I pay into a

healthcare system go towards

someone else's healthcare bills?

Yeah. I couldn't have

said it better myself.

Right?

- Yeah.

Really? You agree with that?

- Yeah.

I just think that we

should have two different

healthcare funds.

You know, one for the

healthy, attractive actors

and the other one for the fat sick ones.

That's, that's not how things

work. You know that, right?

Yeah, I know. That's

not how it works.

I'm saying that's how it should work.

No, the healthcare

fund can't just be full

of sick people, then it will go bankrupt

Well then maybe they would

finally learn their lesson

and say, oh, we don't have enough

money to take care of ourselves.

Maybe we should try a diet or something?

You know what?

I agree with everyone.

You can't agree with both...

You know what? Never mind.

You know what I think

we can all agree on is

that this country likes to

punish attractive people.

It really does.

- You can stop arguing.

Terry nailed it.

You're both right.

Hope I'm not interrupting anything!

Russel!

- Had to come and see

my favorite client!

Hey guys this is my agent Russel.

Oh my god!

[screaming and glass breaking]

Holy sh*t!

- Somebody call 911!

Call an ambulance...

April Fool!

[both laughing]

You're not getting rid of me that fast.

This is my guy. This is

my ticket out of the Valley!

Oh sh*t I made a mess.

- You did.

Sweetie could you get this too?

Yes. Yes I... yes I can.

Sure.

- Erica, make sure you get

all that glass.

So there we were on the the back deck

of this old steam ship.

It was just me and Marj Dusay.

Oh yeah. Lemme tell

you something.

That lady had the creamiest

legs you ever laid eyes on.

I mean, creamy legs.

Back then you could say that

to a broad and she'd say,

Thank you"

Not anymore.

[laughing to himself]

Where was I? Oh yeah,

creamy legs.

[sighing] Back then...

[whispering] Back then

an agency had perks. Perks.

[whispering] Jesus Christ

I was knee-deep in pus...

Okay! Uh, everybody,

we gotta sh**t now.

Hey, don't let me distract you.

I just came here to

support my favorite client.

Look at that face.

You picked a winner!

This kid is gonna

be huge. Huge!

You can tell, you can feel it.

You know?

I once represented Roland Gunson.

And we all knew that he

was gonna bust out really big.

Oh yeah.

He never did. But you could

tell, you know, you could tell.

[laughing to himself]

He had... he had... size...

he had...

That was it. He had size.

Okay, everyone, we

gotta sh**t right Chris?

I don't give a sh*t.

Wow. I can't believe it.

In one hour,

everything we love is gonna be gone.

Everything. Shakespeare,

the Beatles,

the World Wide Web?

gone.

We can't think like that.

We have to live for right now.

What we have right now.

[uplifting music]

And right now we

still have those things.

Shakespeare, the

World Wide Web, all of it.

There's gotta be something

we can do, isn't there?

Something we can do about

a Texas-sized meteor about to

crash into our coastline?

Don't be dumb.

Maybe we could leave.

[snoring sounds]

Get in the car and just?

[snoring sounds]

Uh, just?

[whispering]

Is sound picking that up?

[loud snoring]

One second.

Oh yeah.

Yeah. Big time.

[annoyed] Cut.

- Cut! Tha's a cut!

Are you making a mayonnaise sandwich?

Uh, so far yeah.

I might throw

some chips on here too.

For texture.

Dude, I just don't get it.

If this thing has financing,

why are we eating?

this.

- Bro I have no clue.

Every time I try to

talk to Terry about it,

he won't even let me see a budget.

Are your checks clearing?

- Checks?!

I'm getting an envelope full of cash

with my name on it in my car.

Jesus.

Hey Jasmine. Uh, great work.

The food is top notch.

Thanks babe.

Thank you.

She said"bab" right?

Yeah. She said babe.

Whew, 'm gonna have to?

nip that in the butt.

I can't believe you've never

been in anything before.

You're, you're just a

natural. You're a natural.

That's very nice

of you to say.

- Yeah.

You, I didn't even think I'd be able

to memorize the lines.

- Listen,

if you, if you ever think

about getting an agent?

I think you and I would be a great fit.

No, I, I'm serious.

I'm serious.

Hey, ask around, I got a

great reputation as a negotiator.

I'm a shark.

[cell phone ringing]

Oh, I gotta take this.

Excuse me.

Carla! How

are you, darling?

So we got an offer or

what? Oh, good!

[faintly] $200 a day.

- Hey, come on.

I can't ask man to

work for scale. Come on.

I know it's in indie,

but there's gotta be a little

wiggle room somewhere!

No, huh?

[sighing] Yeah do't worry.

'll get him to do it.

Send me the details.

Yeah. Bye Carla.

sh*t.

Hey Ter.

W-what are you looking at?

[quietly] Huh?

Nothing. I was just thinking

1, 2, 3, 4?

five!

[Terry groaning in agony]

Come on!

[choking] Oh! Help!

Erica! Erica!

[birds chirping]

Hey.

Hey.

Everything okay? You seem

more... stressed than usual.

'm fine.

Okay. Can you at

least talk to me?

Okay. What do you

wanna talk about?

I don't know. I just, I?

I kind of feel like I have been

doing my best to help you,

you know, live

your dreams. Right?

First it was the day trading,

then it was the concert

promoting stuff.

Then it was making a movie.

And you're here, you're doing it.

We are in Los Angeles making a movie

and you just seem absolutely miserable.

No, I'm... I'm having fun.

I don't think you are.

- I am having fun.

This is what fun looks like for me.

Every day is more fun than the last.

And these guys on set,

you know, w're friends,

we're buddies, we razz each other.

They're like,"Terry,

you're so far behind"

Chris is always saying

that I'm late, you know,

and Tom called me a f*ck face, and...

That's mean. That's a

mean thing to say.

No, the way Tom said it...

it was like, a brother.

Okay.

- You know?

- Yeah.

I'm just saying, this is a blast.

Anyways, I just, I don't...

- Alright, fine!

yeah it's more stressful than

I thought it would be.

But that's normal, right?

Like, it's not the process

that anybody likes.

It's the awards, the

premieres, the parties.

It's not the present. It's the future.

The future's gonna be the good stuff.

Okay. Um, I think...

I think a lot of people like the process

Well, so you don't think

we should be in Los Angeles?

No! I... I did

NOT say that.

I just think that you

keep moving the bar.

Well, it's kind of true,

you know, to be...

a player in the entertainment industry,

you don't really have to be

located in Los Angeles anymore.

You could be anywhere.

- Great!

'Cause our families are in Iowa.

And maybe after all this wraps up,

we can just go back there.

Nooo! I mean, like, PEOPLE don't

need to be in Los Angeles.

Directors do.

Okay. Why did you

bring that up then?

Because you don't like my body.

What?

- Yeah. You think that

I'm in LA now,

I don't have this LA

body type. Right!

That I should go back to Iowa.

Like I should join the gym or something.

I mean... no! I, I think I'm all

for you being healthy...

Of course.

- There it is, you hate my body.

What?!

- And that's exactly

why I brought it up.

This conversation is over.

We're staying in Los Angeles.

[jovial music]

Okay. I think we can all agree,

the vibe felt pretty weird the other day

So I think I came up

with the perfect solution.

[groaning]

Okay?

You didn't tell him

there's gonna be steps.

Wh's this?

I'm Brett.

- Who is Brett?

[laughing incredulously]

Brett.

That's Brett.

- Hi Brett.

- No, I mean I know he's Brett.

I'm saying like, what are you doing HERE

Oh, got it. I am Brett.

B-R-E, double T.

Intimacy coordinator.

You gotta be f*cking kidding me.

- Brett don't joke around.

[laughing] Alright?

I know what you're thinking.

Oh. oh, but he's a guy.

[laughing] Yes. Right. Exactly.

I found out almost

NO men worked this job,

so I sued SAG-AFTRA to get it.

Now...

Who's porking?

[loud clap]

- Whoa.

Wow.

- No one. No one is"porking"

[laughing] Not yet.

[laughing] Yo're bad!

Okay. Brett's just here

to make sure,

you know, everyone feels comfortable.

We wouldn't want any

Me Too situation happening

on set Garry.

What?

- Exactly. Because if

another one does happen,

I'm out of the union.

So you've been in trouble

before for that kind of thing?

No, I have been"convicte" in

an"arbitration proceedin"

for"turning a blind ey" to

repeated and unrepentant"

sexual harassment on set"

Hey, the EPK crew. Huh?

I gotta sign something?

We hanging it out later?

[snorting sounds]

Okay guys, now everyone's

feeling a little safer,

I say we sh**t.

- Yeah le's, lets do it.

Yeah, let's just, yeah.

Real safe.

[Mike clearing his throat]

Untitled Meteor Movie,

scene 15A take one.

[film slate clapping]

[Garry and Jenny flirting]

Speed. Action.

Okay.

I think 'm...

falling in love with you.

I think I'm falling in love with you too

[uplifting cinematic music]

Okay can we hold for one second?

- Whoa!

Yes, yeah, of course.

- Just a second.

I don't mean to give

you a line read here,

but I thought maybe at

this point, before the kiss,

you could say,"Hey babe,

what do you say we.."

slap nasties"

What?!

- Yeah. Not, not, not

saying that. Not doing it.

No lines, no lines. You don't

want a line read. I hear ya.

So maybe you can sort of inch...

your hand out towards her collar.

I don't think she...

- To sort of suggest,

that maybe,

things are gonna get a little rough?

I honestly, I was feeling

a lot more comfortable

before uh, you started intervening.

Yeah, me too. I felt so...

- Oh!

Ah ah ah ah,"Me Too"

He said it!

Really? Really?

[laughing maniacally]

Not it!

How much are we paying

this guy Terry?

- I did't know he was going to

be like this. Alright, how

about we do another one

and Brett, you just tone

it down about 100%?

- Okay!

Mm hmm.

- Alright. Alright.

- Cool.

You don't need to take it

personally, it's just...

- I do't take it personally.

i'm a professional.

Okay. Okay.

Lady, I'm doing this for you.

- Lady?!

I'm doing this to keep you

comfortable and happy.

I don't feel comfortable around you.

For the record.

Here it is!

- Your energy needs

to change Brett.

'm sorry, your energy...

- My energy needs to change?!

Yes, your energy needs to change and

I'll f*cking change it.

- Oh, you're gonna

change my energy?

Oh yeah, 'll change it!

[total chaos]

Alright Terry, that was a lot of fun.

Hey, you paid for the day.

You sure don't want me to

hang around a couple more hours?

Nope. Definitely sure.

That was the only intimate scene

so thank you very much.

- Yeah, well, you know,

it's not really your job to

determine wha's

intimate or not.

Okay. You take cash?

- Yeah of course.

Cash is king, baby.

Ooh, Garry.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Uh, yeah!

See you Garry.

- Ha ha ha alright we'll see ya!

I told him to leave.

- Yeah.

What would you say if I

asked you... your character,

to gain like 50 or 60

pounds for this role?

You want me to get fat?

I mean you know how we

talked about like the meteor

being liberating and stuff?

- Y... yeah? Yeah.

Why would your guy be so ripped?

You know, would you keep going

to the gym if you

knew you were gonna die?

I mean, okay? I mean,

I, I, I... okay.

I, yeah, that, that's gonna

be kind of hard with the,

you know, stuff that you're

giving over at crafty but...

Yeah, I can, I can do it.

It's totally fine.

This is a serious discussion.

[festive music]

I don't know. I, I think

that the only

thing I can do is just

try to get this guy fat.

Terry, what does that have

to do with what I just asked you?

What's good for the movie

is good for the baby.

How is Gary being fat good for our baby?

Because it's good for our movie.

Does this have something

to do with the weird

body dysmorphia thing that

you mentioned the other day?

This has nothing to do with my body.

Yeah, no. Like you tried to

work out to compete with Gary

and you realized it was

too hard, and now...

you're just trying to make him fat.

Uh, why are we talking about this?

Terry? Because I

just asked you

what we were gonna do if this

baby comes before the movie

is done sh**ting.

And you for some reason

brought up making Gary fat.

And you for some reason are

mad that Gary might get fat.

I am not mad. Okay? I am...

I'm, I'm frustrated. Okay?

I'm frustrated that I'm

talking about our baby

and you are talking about

the whole Gary thing.

And, and, and Devin is, Devin

is here. I'm sorry Devin.

No offense.

- Just pretend 'm not here.

[Erica sighing] I'm sorry.

- I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to yell at you.

- [Devin whispering] Sorry.

Sounds like somebody needs

an intimacy coordinator.

What the f*ck are you doing

here? I thought you left.

I left my iPad. And I

wanted to say goodbye.

It was great chatting with you.

So good to chat with you.

Really, god bless that little baby.

Aw!

- These are the best

years of your life.

Just treasure every

moment alright?

- Thank you.

What the f*ck is going on?!

You guys know each other or something?

We had a coffee at craft service!

Yeah. Terry.

I have conversations.

You... need... a bath.

- Thank you Brett! Thank you!

Seriously. I came

up here to say...

I have family in Toronto

and that scene was...

incredibly moving.

Oh, thanks.

- Yeah. Okay. Thank you.

How much did that guy cost?

Why is everybody asking me that?

Because I know you're

really worried about money.

Shhh! Don't say that

out loud.

Well, it's pretty apparent.

Look, I've got a solution

to the money problems.

Don't worry about it.

Okay Erica, during this

scene, I want you to hold

this Diet Coke.

Have that logo facing

the camera. Alright?

Garry, during this scene,

you're gonna be just

going to town on that cake.

What?

- I said during this scene,

you're gonna be going

to town on that cake.

- Alright.

Perfect.

- Yeah.

- Alright.

[helicopter noise]

Nate, can we hear this

helicopter at all?

[helicopter noise]

No, not at all.

Good to keep moving.

Okay, i's not picking it up?

- No, not... not at all.

You're not picking up this chopper?

Can't, can't hear a

thing in my headphones.

Alright, we are behind, we

are sh**ting with the chopper.

It adds value. Let's go.

I ca't hear my cues though.

W're doing this one

with the chopper.

- Okay!

We'll do another one

later without the chopper.

We'll see which one is better.

- Should I yell?

- Yeah. Yell.

Everyone's gonna be

yelling over the chopper

for this one, okay?

[everyone] Yeah, okay!

- Okay here we go.

Rolling, and...

Here we go, yell over

the chopper. And action.

[yelling over loud helicopter]

I can tell something's wrong!

Little louder Phil!

I can tell

somethin's wrong!

No sh*t, something's wrong!

I've wasted my entire life!

Aw, come on. That's not true.

Alright, let's bring the Coke can up

into frame a little bit more.

Perfect.

No, it, it is true.

It is true. Okay?

I've spent my entire life too afraid

to follow any of my dreams.

[crying] And this meteor's coming

and now I won't ever,

I won't make anything of...

I won't make anything of myself.

[sobbing and helicopter noise]

[dramatic movie music]

Okay cut!

And we'll do the dance sequence later.

Now let's do one with these potato chips

Alright get that label right.

Garry, absolutely perfect.

What?

- Looks absolutely perfect.

- Okay.

Keep... you can even add some,

you know,"mmm, yummy"

Mmm this is good" Okay."

- Exactly right.

- Cool.

Alright, here we go.

And we're still rolling.

Action!

[helicopter sounds]

Mmmmm mmmm.

And I listened to them.

- Yeah.

For what?

- Mmmmmm.

Great! Okay now w're

gonna do another one

with a different product!

Erica now you hold this one!

Atta girl!

And I listened to them!

For what?!

Why am I holding a sponge?

Don't call it a sponge!

I's... called"The Original Scrub

Mommy flex texture scrubber"

If you can fit that in, great.

- Okay.

Chopper's gone. Is that okay?

- Yeah.

Again, let's just get through this.

We have to go get insulin for Garry.

Yeah. Yeah. This

is getting intense.

So good. I got some

hilarious pictures of Garry.

Hey!

Hey!

- Who are you?

I'm Toby. I'm the owner of the

house. What is all this sh*t?!

Oh... it's not...

[friendly] Hey!

What... the... hell!

What? Why are

you filming me?

[Garry] Oh my god.

You're sh**ting a porno in my kitchen?!

No.

And you got a hole

in my wall? Why?

Why?

- Hey!

That is not Terr's fault okay?

If you wanna blame anyone, blame me

and my stupid f*cking a*s.

f*ck. Terry. I'm so sorry, dude.

It's cool. Everyone

calm down.

Hey, no one's sh**ting a porno in here.

Okay. Well you still all have

to get outta here now, okay?

Right now.

- [everyone] Okay.

No, no, no, no!

Guys, guys.

I think we can come to some

type of agreement, alright?

No! No, we can't come

to an agreement.

You've all gotta be outta here

before my girlfriend

gets back from her audition.

Or she is gonna flip

her sh*t if she sees all this.

No coasters?! What

is wrong with you?!

- 'm sorry.

Oh my god.

- 'll get those out of the way.

Oh I suppose you three are

the ones gonna have an

orgy on my antique kitchen table.

No, no, no, no, no. There's

no orgy being shot here.

Ha, yeah, not anymore there's not.

What are you all

still doing here?!

Toby! We have a

proposition for you.

Okay. What?!

Could you just step

over here for a minute?

[Toby sighing loudly]

W're all mad about this.

Alright crew, take five!

We'll be right back.

- Do't touch me.

- Sorry.

We are prepared to offer your

girlfriend a role in a film.

What?

- Well, you said

she was at an audition.

So I'm assuming she's an actress?

I mean...

she wants to be.

Perfect. W're gonna

put her in a movie.

You don't even know if she can act.

It does not matter.

Can she?

Hell if I know.

I's fine. You know, well

find a place for her.

You just have to let us keep sh**ting.

W're almost finished.

I don't know? I mean?

Why are there holes in the walls?!

I'll take care of that.

[whispering] What is that gu's deal?

I'm gonna fire that guy.

Alright? He creeps us all out.

I don't know why he

put the holes in the walls?

[under his breath] Alright.

Honey.

Hey, do you want to be in a movie?

I, I don't know what it's about.

What's it about?

It's about a space meteor.

It's about a space meteor.

Okay, well, well come

on home then. Alright.

[sighing] Sure. She'll do it.

It's fictional by the way.

Good news, b*tches.

So, you know that guy

who just yelled at us?

His girlfriend is gonna play

Jenny's sister in the movie.

What? How's that

gonna work?

Well your girl is gonna have a sister.

Yeah we've already established that

my character is an only child.

I had that whole monologue about feeling

alone in the world.

because I'm an only child.

Like, what?

And we have no idea what

Toby's girlfriend looks like.

Her age, her height, you know?

Okay. So she can't play

Jenny's sister. Good point.

Is he? having a stroke?

- Oh no. He's? thinking.

This happened at Chipotle the other day.

Eventually I just had to

order barbacoa for him.

[clapping] Ter?

- I got it.

Chris.

I need you to run to

Spirit Halloween. I got it.

I? I don't think he got it

I don't think he got it.

Spirit Halloween?

I's like f*cking April.

Where is he going?

- I got it!

You are gonna run

into the couch if you?

keep walking like that.

[dramatic music] The mail is here!

Okay, let's cut.

- Okay.

Alright. Let's go again.

That was great.

Thank you.

Uh, this time just don't look

directly into the? lens.

Okay? Got it. Yes!

Lens is a big no-no spot.

[laughing] Okay. Oooh!

Um, I'm ready.

Let's do this.

Resetting, back to one.

[whispering] This does't

make any sense. Why would

she still be delivering mail

when a meteor's coming?

I have so many questions.

And action.

[dramatic music]

Hey, it's time for mail why don't you.

Cut? It was great.

But you were looking in the

lens almost the whole time that time.

It's like, it's just, can it be

a part of the character?

Okay. How about we do one

where you DO stare at the camera,

but we just pretend it's right here?

Can you pretend the camera's here?

Wow. You guys are

stretching me. Okay.

You're the last mailman alive.

Okay.

- No lens. And action.

[in a bizarre deep voice]

Mail is here.

[Garry] Oh God.

- I love my job delivering mail.

Okay, I think we got it.

Okay.

- That's the one.

Thank you both so much.

And Darby, excellent work today.

Thank you. It? was a blast.

[laughing]

So, uh, how should we handle payment?

Payment?

- Yeah. Darb's SAG.

Yeah.

[laughing]

Well see this isn't a SAG picture.

This is more of a?

micro budget.

Ooh. That might

be a problem.

Yeah, we do not want her getting into

any trouble with the union.

How much is SAG minimum?

Like 5,000?

- Two hundred bucks.

Really?

- Yeah.

That's low. Ohh?

Alright. Well we've?

we've got a dinner.

You can just mail us

a check. Alright.

Where to?

To here. Our house.

Yo're sh**ting in our house.

Alright. Come on babe.

Bye.

- Is she looking

in the lens again?

[Darby whispering] God tha's low.

Hey guys, I got some AMAZING news.

Russel just called me.

I booked a movie.

[everyone cheering]

Way to go bro!

Whaaaat?

- Tha's amazing!

Wow!

- Yes! Congratulations!

That's awesome.

- Thanks bro, appreciate it.

Good work.

- Hey uh? this IS a movie.

This is a movie.

Uh, yeah. No, no. But

like a? like a real one.

Yeah!

- Gettin paaaid!

Alright when does it sh**t?

When does it sh**t?

Uh, yeah see that's, that's

kind of the? the issue.

Uh, they need me?

in five days.

Five days?

- Yeah.

- Absolutely not, man.

Terry! H's got like

four scenes left.

We could sh**t him

out tonight if we had to.

I'm not sh**ting out of order!

How many times do

we have to go over this?

W've already shot out of order.

W've been sh**ting a

bunch of stuff out of order.

Yeah, but then it goes

back in order in the edit,

and everybody knows that.

- Exactly. So sh**t him out.

Dude, you signed a contract.

Dude we were supposed to wrap AGES ago.

And w're not. Okay?

And I just stuck my neck

out for the film for a place

to sh**t by putting Darby in it.

And you're just gonna bail on us?

Okay wait wait. Let me? let me

ask you a serious question.

Do you have a problem with me?

No.

- No? You don't?

Cause it feels like it. Yo've

been riding me since day one.

Bullshit

- Bullshit?

- Bullshit.

You know what funny

enough, I didn't even want

to do this film in the first place.

Russel's not really bringing in much wor

and it's not much going on out there

so I was like, you

know what? Fine.

Let me just go ahead

and do this nice

little indie project.

See what might come

of it. You know?

- Exactly.

Yeah. But that's

not gonna happen.

Because we're not gonna

finish this f*cking movie.

Alright? The script was

incoherent when we all first

read it, and now it was just

some f*cking metaphor

for your wife being pregnant.

This movie's about a meteor.

Stop psychoanalyzing me, idiot.

Yeah.

- I'm not an idiot.

You're an idiot.

Oh you wanna go?

- [Erica] Terry. Terry!

- You wanna do this?

[Erica] No!

[everyone shouting]

You really wanna do this?

- [Phil] Do't, come on yall.

Chill!

- [Chris] No, no, no, no.

[everyone screaming]

Jesus. Get off.

- No, no!

- Get off me, dude.

Should we break this up?

- No.

I think i's time Terry learned a lesson.

Oh, you made a mistake

by pinning me.

- Oh, I did?

Yeah 'cause I'm

gonna flip it on you.

- Oh, good luck. Try.

'm gonna flip it.

- Try.

This is't about the movie

Devin, you can just cut on this.

- Keep going Devin.

Keep going.

- Don't listen to Garry.

H's not the director. Okay?

Are you done?

- I'm done.

Are you calm?

- I'm calm.

- Take a breath.

'm calm.

I'm calm. Okay i's a draw.

Ai't no f*cking draw.

Get up.

[Garry] I'm sorry guys.

Jesus.

- I'm cool.

You son of a b*tch?

[everyone screaming again]

[Terry] Ahhhh not again!

- [Garry] Yeah, again.

[crickets chirping]

- Hey man. Wha're you gonna

do now that Garry left?

Devin. No, Devin.

Not right now.

Oh good.

There you are. Uh?

We should probably talk about what you

wanna do now that Garry left.

No.

Everythin's fine.

Okay. Well, this is probably

not as important,

but Mike left too.

I think he felt some

guilt about all the sawing?

He wanted me to give you this.

Alright, well, see you tomorrow.

[somber music]

Give it a rest.

You're having your baby.

I'm having my baby.

- This? This baby is YOUR baby.

Alright exactly. Then I'm having

two babies. Alright?

I need you to back me up on this stuff.

Support me like I'm supporting you.

This entire fight is about

you not supporting me.

Well, isn't it interesting

that now it's about YOU

not supporting ME.

No. It's not interesting.

Everything's f*cking

riding on this movie.

You don't think I know

that? All of our savings.

The money from my parents, our friends?

Terry, yo're the one

that's messing this all up.

How am I messing this up?

I?

[laughing]

I can't believe I even have to say it.

Okay your crew hates you.

The cast can't stand you.

Garry walked.

God, Terry, i's like I don't even

recognize you at all anymore.

I do't want people to

recognize me anymore.

Alright? They don't

give blockbuster

franchises to nobodies from Iowa.

Well, I like that nobody from Iowa.

Yeah, you would, yo're from there.

So are you!

Keep your voice down.

- Okay. Goddamnit, Terry.

I am not an idiot. Alright?

I know you've got a

thing for Jenny. Okay?

Pssh, Jenny? What?

She's ugly.

You know what? It doesn't

even matter anymore.

Because?

Her and Garry have been

sleeping together all week.

What?

- Don't mess with me. Alright?

'm serious.

I only love you.

How do you know the've been f*cking?

Oh, okay.

I am, I'm, I'm honestly,

I'm past the point

of giving a sh*t about you and me.

You need to make this movie work.

For the baby, okay? That

means stop hitting on your

lead actress. That means

listening to your crew!

And that means keeping

your weird racial opinions

to yourself and getting

this movie finished.

You need to find a solution for Garry.

Tonight!

You have gotta

be kidding me!

- [Devin] Sorry, sorry, sorry!

[pensive music]

If it's good enough for James Cameron,

i's good enough for us.

Ladies and gentlemen?

meet the new Garry.

Oh my god.

- Terry, that isn't gonna work.

Oh, it's gonna work.

Rick?

What's up, guys?

- Who's this now?

[Tom] Holy sh*t.

Rick?

- [Rick] Oh f*ck.

Tom?

Why is this as*h*le here?

- Do you guys know each other?

Know each other?! This freaking

penny d*ck owes me $500.

We used to be roommates.

I don't have a penny d*ck.

I do't even know what that means.

Yeah."Roommates" Roommates

pay rent. They're on the lease.

You know what, Terry? You can go

ahead and just gimme his check.

You're not getting a

dime from me, buddy!

- Oh yeah?

No!

- You're not gonna get... okay.

Well then 'm not gonna

push the record button.

How do you feel about that?

- I don't care.

- Okay, great.

Guys, this does't have

anything to do with the film.

Yes. Now it does.

Now it does.

- Why does it now?

I'm not playing...

- Give me his check!

Give me his check

'cause he totaled my bike.

I didn't... You took pictures.

You put 'em all online.

You said it was my fault.

We all saw the pictures.

Someone needs to reimburse

me for my totaled bicycle!

Did you get it fixed?

[taunting] Noooo! You

ca't fix a totaled bike!

I don't like your f*cking tone.

'm not a child.

- Did you buy a new bike?

Yeah, I got a new bike.

- Wow.

- It's beautiful.

And it's not totaled.

- Oh, great.

- It works.

[clapping] Good job.

- And I'm a man on it.

Yeah, I'm sure you are.

What color is it?

Green.

In all the right places, pal.

That's my favorite color. Okay.

I know it's your favorite color.

- Yeah.

I got you that green

sweater for Christmas.

I still wear it.

- I miss living with you.

- I know.

f*ck, man!

- Where are you living now?

Pasadena!

- Me too.

- Shut up.

Wha's your rent?

- My rent's insanely high.

- Me too, man.

I's crazy. It's hard

to deal with expenses.

- I's like $2700.

Are you kidding me?

- No. We were paying what?

$1900.

- And we were splitting it.

And we were having a blast

and at night we had

someone to talk to.

We really should get to

sh**ting something, Terry.

And not your f*cking Swiffer.

Rick's gonna make it work.

No. You... you fire him.

You fire him.

- No.

Fire him.

- That's a dumb idea.

- I, we can't work together.

Don't listen to him.

- Guys, we got a movie to sh**t!

Okay, well I'm not moving a muscle

until you fire this as*h*le.

Same. I'm not moving a muscle

until you fire this as*h*le.

Okay, Rick's fired.

- f*ck.

Really?

- Alright, yeah.

- Everyone speeding?

Yeah. Good. Good. Yeah.

Oh, thank god. I'm starving.

Well, don't get too excited.

This is all I could get on short notice.

Short notice?

Lunch happens every day.

Okay. Well, what is it?

What are we having?

Leftovers from last

night's Freeform party.

Yuck, has he still not paid you?

Not a cent.

- Are you serious?

Are you serious?

- Yeah.

This is dumb.

Wher's Terry?

Ham's pretty wet.

[Erika faintly] OK I hear

you when you say you're

under a lot of stress.

[Terry faintly] And I hear

you when you say that.

Terry! Do you have

money or not?

Whoa! What the hell, dude?

Jasmine just brought lunch

and it's a bunch of cold

leftovers from some

Freeform wrap party last night.

We're cutting corners where we can so

that we can put all the

money on the screen.

Yeah. Well, your screen is

about to be filled with a

bunch of very ill actors

if you don't get us any

real edible actual food!

In the next hour!

Mary? Hey, we're gonna

have to call you back. Sorry.

Uh, maybe you should just tell him?

About the money.

Tell me WHAT about the money?

What about the money?!

[suspenseful music and sipping]

Terry! Terry.

Terry. Tell them what

you told me upstairs.

You guys are gonna love

this. You have the floor.

Alright. You're making way too

big a deal about this, alright?

Yeah, I lied about the money.

We didn't have financing

in place technically.

- WHAT?!

[everyone panicking] [Terry] So stupid,

'Cause we DID have money.

And it was the same

amount that I said we had.

Uh, I just didn't raise it technically.

Tell 'em where it came from.

Well, some of it was from,

uh, Erica's parents.

You know, some of it

was our savings. Right?

Um, and most of it was,

uh, you know, like, um?

Crypto. You guys

know cryptocurrency?

Oh great.

- Yeah?

- Crypto, 'm familiar.

Um, like Bitcoin.

Dogecoin.

Yeah, we know, man, we know.

Terry made a hundred

grand off of crypto coin.

That's where the money came from.

Okay. Yeah. Well, that's

not so bad. Right?

Exactly, Jenny.

Thanks for always having my back.

Ask him what the coin was.

Yeah. Um, so, you know,

I was buying all these

little different coins.

It was fun. And some

of them did well.

Some of them did bad. The

one that really popped off?

it wound up being like an alt-

right thing like a n*zi coin.

A n*zi coin! See, I knew

this dude was a r*cist!

Wait, so this whole thing,

we're making it with what?

n*zi gold? Or?

No. No. Well?

Crypto is a lot like gold.

- No, i's not.

Yeah, it is.

It's more like gold than?

regular currency.

Gold is an... element.

Well... right,

but right now?

TERRY WHAT THE f*ck, MAN?!

Well, 'm just saying most

financing is't backed by

anything, but crypto's real.

- Okay, just so you know,

crypto's not what we have an issue with.

Okay.

- I's the OTHER word.

I's the n*zi stuff, man!

W're not Nazis here.

Even though you look like f*cking...

Hitler Youth Group, for Christ's sake.

Look, I did't know any of

this, and I sold it all before

I even knew it was bad.

What was the name of the coin?

[whispering] Swasticoin.

- SWASTICOIN?

What, Swasticoin?

- Swasticoin?

- Swasticoin?!

SWASTICOIN?

- Swasticoin?

Swasticoin.

- You did't"ge" it?

You didn't understand?

I bought a lot

of different coins.

- And all those coins did bad,

but Swasticoin went through the roof?

Yeah. And 'm sure some

of them were PRO semetic.

Okay, well, this article is saying

that Swasticoin was an

alt-right Ponzi scheme,

and all the money that

went into it was used

to fund a museum

that denies the existence

of the Holocaust.

What the f*ck does

that even... they make

a museum for that?!

Wow, 'm so sorry, you guys.

'm just hearing about this as well.

And I am SO embarrassed.

I'm mortified.

Well, that article had a ton

of bias against crypto.

Oh, well, it's not the only one.

There's multiple articles that

basically just say

the same thing.

Well, journalists hate crypto

because they're owned

by the World Bank.

You keep saying crypto, man.

We're talking about Nazis!

- Right.

I think journalists in 2023

are allowed to be

biased against Nazis.

No, crypto. Because

of the World Bank.

Do we wanna talk about crypto?

Or do we wanna

make a movie?

- Neither right now.

If I'm being honest.

Terry, you said you HAD money.

Keyword HAD. How

much n*zi coin is left?

Um, technically nothing.

- How?!

The last few days I've

been paying for everything

with my Amex.

Wait, what? Our Amex? Terry,

where did the money go?

These things pile up.

- They pile up?!

Wait, you are never gonna pay me?

Fine. I'm so sorry, guys.

I'm so sorry for everything.

I'm sorry, too.

- f*ck you, Terry.

I wouldn't take your n*zi

sh*t coin money anyway.

Bullshit. Sorry guys.

You do't have to apologize.

- Mm-hmm.

That was crazy.

- No it was't.

No, sh's not the crazy

one right now Terry.

[door opening]

Uhhh, hello?

What is Seal doing here?

Is now a bad time?

Oh, this looks incredibly weird.

This is our celebrity cameo.

What? You didn't tell me that!

Wait, but how's that

gonna work? Because...

Aren't all the celebrity

cameo scenes with Garry?

Which one of you is Garry?

He's a little tennis ball over there.

Terry, I should have

done this a long time ago...

Even with Seal here...

'm out.

Out. Yeah. You know what?

'm out too. No offense, Seal.

Okay, guys, come on.

No, no, no. Guys, guys, listen.

We are so close to finishing.

Oh boy.

I ruined the movie.

No!

- No, no.

- Oh no! Seal!

Definitely not you.

- Yo're wonderful

- This has nothing to

do with you.

- What if I pay you guys?

With what money?

Don't worry about

the money. 5,000 bucks.

Split down the middle

and you can keep the backend.

I do't want the backend!

- Yeah 'm not, were not

interested in backend.

Sea's in the movie. You're

gonna want the backend.

I need this money in my hand.

Or I'm not sh**ting another scene.

Yeah I'll put it.

I'll put it in your hand.

Terry where are you gonna get the money?

Let me worry about the money.

Two days. Come back

in two days and we

finish the movie?

Okay, we'll see. Two days.

You got two days.

Or 'll never talk to you again.

Nice meeting you.

- Nice to meet you, too.

Wonderful working with you Seal.

- Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you. Uh,

Terry, what about the crew?

Uh, Terry?

What about the crew?

What about me?

Seal?

[calm music]

Hey, you two look great.

So Erica's fine.

I'm just calling... well, you

know, Erica wanted me

to call because we do need a

little bit of help financially,

um, for the baby.

So she's due any day now, and...

we could really use the help, i's a lot.

Where's Erica?

How come she's

not a part of this conversation?

How much do you guys need?

Well, that's the good news.

We only need $10,000.

[uncomfortable laughing]

Ahhhh... go get Erica.

Sh's... Erica's busy.

- Doing what?

She's resting her... tummy.

What happened to the money we loaned

you about a month ago?

We spent it all on,

you know... baby stuff.

There's cribs, nursery, cradles,

diapers, pacifier.

One of those things, uh, run...

where the baby runs in it?

It just... it just piles up.

- Wait, wait.

Speaking of...

What is the deal with the baby registry?

I understand the bibs

and the silicone bowls,

but what about this T44

Kino Flo FreeSyle tube light?

What is that?

I have no idea what

these baby things are.

Um...

Do you guys want

to help the baby?

It's fine if you don't.

Wait let me stop you right

there, partner. Okay?

Okay.

- This baby will not have to

worry about a g*dd*mn thing.

Good.

- But if you think we're

giving you another penny?

You're outta your mind.

Well, I'm not... it doesn't...

I completely agree with

everything he just said.

So, that's final!

How do you turn this thing off?

- This...

- How do we leave...

Erica wanted me to call.

She was the one who...

this was her...

- Just hit it hard.

This was her...

- Hit it hard.

Sorry.

- Swipe. Swipe.

I'm swiping.

- Put your face there

so they can see you.

No, no. No that's not it.

I can't believe you asked

my parents for more money.

Yeah. Well, you know what?

If I had a family with money,

I would ask them, but I don't.

Okay. Well, I'm not getting

dragged into this with you again.

What about your family

who lives here in California?

I don't have family in California.

Yeah, you do.

- Who?

Your grandma.

- Gigi?

Yeah.

- She's alive?

Yes!

- She's still alive.

She's still alive.

- And she lives in California?

Yes she lives in California!

- Where?

Seal Beach. At

that leisure center.

Seal Beach. At that leisure

center. I told you Devin!

Let's go to Seal Beach!

[hip-hop playing on car stereo]

Oh my god look at that ocean!

Look at that ocean.

Devin, look at the ocean.

[Devin] Just... can you

look at the road?

Look at the ocean, dude.

- [annoyed] Okay.

When are you gonna see the...

forest for the trees dude?

Come on.

Would I say I'm the perfect

grandson? Is that the question?

[Devin] I did not ask him that.

- Just pretend you did Devin.

Jesus f*cking Christ.

Okay, reset.

And... action.

So funny. I'm going to see my

Gigi, who lives in California.

I didn't think I'd get the chance

because the film's been so busy,

but we had the day off.

And I figure I'd be a perfect grandson

and go get lunch with her.

[Devin] But you're still taking

me to In-N-Out, right?

I'm not getting lunch

with her Devin! Alright?

I just don't want people

to think I'm a total as*h*le.

[Devin] Oh, are you

gonna ask her for money?

Yeah.

A bunch.

[pop music on the car radio]

All right. Here we are.

Whoops.

[check flapping]

Ooh.

Devin, you would not

believe how easy it was

to get money from Gigi.

[Devin] What happened?

Well, I told her it was my birthday.

Iow's a sh*t h*le, man.

No stars, no ocean, no power lunch spots

None of it.

I gotta tell you. No,

you know... walk of fame.

No famous directors.

Look at these houses!

Look at these houses.

Devin, are you getting these houses?

I bet you famous people live there.

You think I'll ever live

in a place like that, Devin?

When the movie's done?

What do you think?

[Devin] I hope so Terry.

Me too. Me too, big time.

[melodious music]

[door opening]

[Phil sighing]

'm here for the money.

Not because I respect you, okay?

Same.

- Understood.

Thank you both so much for coming back.

Alright, let's do a hug.

- What?

No.

- No!

- Last day?

No!

- I's a last day hug.

No, Terry.

- Please?

No.

- Come on. Gimme a hug.

Come on, man.

- Whoa!

All right. Listen up

everyone. Okay?

We need to be out of

this Airbnb by 2 pm sharp.

And we need to leave

it the way we found it.

That means filling in

the holes in the walls.

No gaff tape, no garbage, no nothing.

So we have about...

an hour to get this all done.

So if you are not in this next scene,

I need you cleaning up your area,

helping other people

clean up their areas,

and then getting the

hell out of this house.

Alright? Take it away,

director Terry.

Alright. So I think we

should take this time,

take a minute to just reflect.

What?! Terry, come on.

We're ready to sh**t now!

Yeah, let's go.

- Please!

Look, I just think, you know,

we should take a second

to take in what we've done here.

Terry what are you stalling

for? Every step of the way,

I've been keeping this

production on the track,

and you've just been

grabbing the steering

wheel and cranking it towards

a cliff, for fuc's sake, Terry,

we are so close to finishing this movie.

[door opening]

And you just cannot get out of...

[Garry making sh**ting sounds]

[everyone cheering] Oooooh!

Wha's up guys? Yall

sh**ting a movie here or what?

[Garry laughing]

Oh man!

- Garry!

We missed you man.

- Yeah missed 'all too.

Thanks, baby.

[Garry counting to himself]

- [Phil] Wait?

He's counting longer than?

than we counted.

Wait, Terry, is that more than $2,500?

Oh yeah. I paid

him more than you.

That's not cool!

- It is cool. Everything?

Everything's cool.

God, can we sh**t something?

Please, please. Am I crazy?

Am I the crazy one here?

Can we sh**t?

wipe out the entire planet.

But you guys are fine.

You've made your peace.

Somehow it all worked out.

I believed in the script.

I believed in the cast.

And I believed in me.

I believed in Terry.

So yeah, Hulu acquired the movie

and we made a ton of money.

Obviously.

So I'm currently doing a

rewrite on a top secret project

I'm not supposed to talk about.

A new Terminator reboot.

It's gonna be woke.

And uh, I'm also working

on a new Disney+ series.

I'm one of the

directors. It's about?

Boba Fett's cousin or something.

So yeah.

It all worked out, man.

[Devin] And what about

Erica? How's she doing?

Yeah, she's? good.

She, uh?

we split up, she moved back to Iowa.

[Devin] Awesome, man. Well?

I think that's all we need.

the last interview. So?

Very cool, man.

my help with it or anything?

Yeah, man. We're sure. I just

wanna make it my own, so?

Yeah, I get it.

Thank you for being

so understanding.
