1
00:00:01,835 --> 00:00:02,836
Before Ben fell,

2
00:00:02,919 --> 00:00:04,754
what if he grabbed
for something?

3
00:00:04,838 --> 00:00:06,673
You're using Ben's
opening night gift.

4
00:00:06,756 --> 00:00:08,091
Yeah, didn't think I'd
need it so soon.

5
00:00:08,174 --> 00:00:09,342
I did security for Ben.

6
00:00:09,426 --> 00:00:11,052
Ben wants to say hi.

7
00:00:11,136 --> 00:00:13,013
- Okay, we have to go.
- Help! Help!

8
00:00:13,096 --> 00:00:14,723
- What?
- Where'd you get that hankie?

9
00:00:14,806 --> 00:00:15,890
- Hands up!
- I didn't do anything.

10
00:00:15,974 --> 00:00:17,475
I think the police
have the wrong guy.

11
00:00:17,559 --> 00:00:20,061
This is my manager, Dickie.

12
00:00:20,145 --> 00:00:22,022
He's not just my manager,
he's also my brother.

13
00:00:22,105 --> 00:00:24,190
And this is my documentarian,
Tobert.

14
00:00:24,274 --> 00:00:25,316
I am just an observer.

15
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:26,344
This is literally
the last time

16
00:00:26,359 --> 00:00:27,262
you're gonna
hear my voice.

17
00:00:27,277 --> 00:00:28,570
The show may be over,

18
00:00:28,653 --> 00:00:31,281
but doesn't that mean

19
00:00:31,364 --> 00:00:34,826
we're not obliged to live
by your show rule anymore?

20
00:00:34,909 --> 00:00:36,369
They're taking down my sets.

21
00:00:36,453 --> 00:00:39,497
This one… just didn't sing.

22
00:00:39,581 --> 00:00:42,500
I'm listening to my heart,
and re-imagining Death Rattle

23
00:00:42,584 --> 00:00:44,419
in the most Oliver Putnam way.

24
00:00:44,502 --> 00:00:46,296
It's a musical.

25
00:00:46,379 --> 00:00:49,049
We think that Ben's killer
is someone in your show.

26
00:00:49,132 --> 00:00:50,884
Which means…

27
00:00:50,967 --> 00:00:51,968
We're back.

28
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,227
Where does a great idea come from?

29
00:01:03,063 --> 00:01:04,147
In my experience,

30
00:01:04,230 --> 00:01:06,649
it all starts with
a single spark.

31
00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:20,079
Mm…

32
00:01:20,205 --> 00:01:22,707
Something small, but bright.

33
00:01:22,791 --> 00:01:25,543
Maybe something only
visible to one person.

34
00:01:43,645 --> 00:01:45,647
That might be something.
Did you get that one?

35
00:01:46,856 --> 00:01:48,233
Guys! Wake up!

36
00:01:49,567 --> 00:01:51,653
Donna and Cliff are gonna
be here in an hour. Jesus.

37
00:01:52,696 --> 00:01:54,447
Howard, what do we have
for our producers?

38
00:01:54,531 --> 00:01:56,032
We have one complete song,

39
00:01:56,116 --> 00:01:58,493
uh, 11 fragments, and… Ooh!

40
00:01:58,576 --> 00:02:00,578
Uh, uh, 25 rough notions
screamed over piano chords.

41
00:02:00,704 --> 00:02:02,330
Maybe one night
wasn't enough time

42
00:02:02,414 --> 00:02:03,456
to write a whole show.

43
00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:04,526
Are you kidding?

44
00:02:04,541 --> 00:02:05,834
One night in 1978,

45
00:02:05,917 --> 00:02:08,378
I wrote two musicals
in George Plimpton's bathroom.

46
00:02:09,170 --> 00:02:10,922
Or was it one musical
in two nights?

47
00:02:11,006 --> 00:02:12,382
It's all pretty hazy.

48
00:02:12,465 --> 00:02:14,300
The point is, Norman Mailer
punched me in the mouth,

49
00:02:14,384 --> 00:02:17,137
and when I woke up, I was
in Betty Friedan's waterbed.

50
00:02:17,220 --> 00:02:18,513
I love that story.

51
00:02:18,596 --> 00:02:20,557
Hey, Oliver, quick,
crazy thought.

52
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:21,933
My cousin, Moses Morris,

53
00:02:22,017 --> 00:02:24,144
he's very big
at State Farm Insurance…

54
00:02:25,395 --> 00:02:27,689
Howard, did you notice
how when I told a story,

55
00:02:27,772 --> 00:02:30,608
it had recognizable names
and a point?

56
00:02:30,692 --> 00:02:33,319
No. Moses Morris
runs sponsorships for State Farm.

57
00:02:33,403 --> 00:02:35,280
So, what say I gave him a ring,

58
00:02:35,363 --> 00:02:36,865
maybe they sponsor
the musical,

59
00:02:36,948 --> 00:02:39,409
and then we don't even need
Donna and Cliff. Bam!

60
00:02:40,869 --> 00:02:42,537
We don't need your…

61
00:02:42,620 --> 00:02:44,664
- Moses Morris?
- Yeah.

62
00:02:45,749 --> 00:02:47,584
Everything we need
is right here.

63
00:02:47,667 --> 00:02:50,670
Look at this cast.
They're all killers.

64
00:02:52,297 --> 00:02:53,882
CHARLES
As we look at the cast,

65
00:02:53,965 --> 00:02:56,176
we are faced with
an unsettling truth.

66
00:02:56,259 --> 00:02:58,303
Any one of them could
be the killer.

67
00:02:58,386 --> 00:03:00,764
Any notes?

68
00:03:01,806 --> 00:03:03,975
Oliver would always
give me notes on my reads.

69
00:03:04,059 --> 00:03:05,393
Thought it was fine.

70
00:03:05,477 --> 00:03:08,605
Oh. Oliver would be
a little more, uh, snarky.

71
00:03:08,688 --> 00:03:11,399
Do you want me to… Oh, okay.

72
00:03:12,359 --> 00:03:13,526
Excellent, Charles.

73
00:03:13,610 --> 00:03:15,445
This time,
try it with a dash

74
00:03:15,528 --> 00:03:16,946
of none of what you just did.

75
00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:19,366
Ah, yeah!
Oh God, I miss him.

76
00:04:11,292 --> 00:04:12,919
Donna, Cliff,
thank you for coming,

77
00:04:13,003 --> 00:04:15,213
as I present my vision
for our show,

78
00:04:15,296 --> 00:04:18,299
which will be henceforth,
and forever, known as…

79
00:04:20,510 --> 00:04:22,637
Death Rattle Dazzle…

80
00:04:22,721 --> 00:04:24,222
a Death Rattle Musical!

81
00:04:26,683 --> 00:04:27,684
Cliff, sit.

82
00:04:27,767 --> 00:04:29,394
Legs crossed.

83
00:04:30,186 --> 00:04:31,730
Kiss for Mommy.

84
00:04:33,857 --> 00:04:35,275
How lovely.

85
00:04:35,358 --> 00:04:38,319
Now, truth be told, uh,
we, we did not have time

86
00:04:38,403 --> 00:04:40,655
to flesh out a presentation
beyond this…

87
00:04:40,739 --> 00:04:43,366
one piece of foam board,
but we do have champagne!

88
00:04:47,495 --> 00:04:49,497
Sadly, we're out of champagne.

89
00:04:52,751 --> 00:04:54,753
So, do you see it?

90
00:04:54,836 --> 00:04:57,047
All I see is a bunch of zeros
in my bank account.

91
00:04:57,130 --> 00:04:58,882
Yes, but what number's
in front of those zeros?

92
00:04:58,965 --> 00:05:00,633
Another zero.

93
00:05:00,717 --> 00:05:02,677
I've put a lot of money
into this play,

94
00:05:02,761 --> 00:05:05,513
and musicals are more expensive.

95
00:05:05,597 --> 00:05:08,099
B-But look, we're talking
about triplets here!

96
00:05:08,767 --> 00:05:10,560
- Do you see it, Cliff?
- I do.

97
00:05:10,643 --> 00:05:13,563
- I love a musical.
- Sweetie. We've talked about your taste.

98
00:05:13,646 --> 00:05:15,106
Yes. It's bad.

99
00:05:15,190 --> 00:05:16,733
You need a showstopper.

100
00:05:16,816 --> 00:05:19,402
Right.
That's how musicals make money.

101
00:05:19,486 --> 00:05:21,571
A song so irresistible,

102
00:05:21,654 --> 00:05:24,199
it's like a syringe that
shoots from Broadway

103
00:05:24,282 --> 00:05:26,659
straight into the neck
of Debbie from Duluth,

104
00:05:26,743 --> 00:05:29,662
who becomes an addict
from the first second she hears it

105
00:05:29,746 --> 00:05:32,582
during girl's night out
at The Calorie Pit.

106
00:05:32,665 --> 00:05:35,835
And an addict will do anything,
anything, to get her fix,

107
00:05:35,919 --> 00:05:38,254
even take a middle seat
on a red-eye

108
00:05:38,338 --> 00:05:41,758
to New York City,
where for the low, low price

109
00:05:41,841 --> 00:05:43,593
of everything she's got,

110
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:45,303
Debbie can have the privilege
of sitting

111
00:05:45,387 --> 00:05:48,598
in the finest rear balcony seat
in all the land

112
00:05:48,682 --> 00:05:50,725
to finally, finally see

113
00:05:50,809 --> 00:05:53,061
that show with that song

114
00:05:53,144 --> 00:05:56,606
she can't stop belting out
all over fucking Duluth.

115
00:05:57,107 --> 00:05:59,734
So, do you have anything
that good?

116
00:05:59,818 --> 00:06:03,029
Do you have a showstopper?

117
00:06:03,113 --> 00:06:05,490
Donna,
you are a maniac!

118
00:06:05,573 --> 00:06:06,825
And I love you!

119
00:06:06,908 --> 00:06:09,452
This show is gonna be
nothing but showstoppers.

120
00:06:09,536 --> 00:06:12,038
This is Oliver Putnam
we're talking about.

121
00:06:12,122 --> 00:06:13,581
Uh, just gimme a few months…

122
00:06:13,665 --> 00:06:15,125
- You have three days.
- That's perfect.

123
00:06:15,208 --> 00:06:16,334
I was hoping you'd
say three days.

124
00:06:16,418 --> 00:06:17,418
Then I leave for the Hamptons,

125
00:06:17,460 --> 00:06:18,920
and unless they
have cell service

126
00:06:19,004 --> 00:06:21,798
at the bottom of a bottle
of Chardonnay,

127
00:06:21,881 --> 00:06:23,174
I will not be reachable.

128
00:06:24,467 --> 00:06:26,344
You spent a few months
with this group.

129
00:06:26,428 --> 00:06:27,971
Any first thoughts?

130
00:06:28,054 --> 00:06:29,472
First thoughts.
First thoughts.

131
00:06:29,556 --> 00:06:30,932
My first thought

132
00:06:31,016 --> 00:06:33,393
is maybe I should've
gotten to know them better.

133
00:06:33,476 --> 00:06:36,062
Wow. I was worried
we'd be starting at square one,

134
00:06:36,146 --> 00:06:37,272
but no danger of that.

135
00:06:37,355 --> 00:06:38,356
Well, you have to remember,

136
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:39,607
a lot of them grew up
idolizing me,

137
00:06:39,691 --> 00:06:41,693
so they keep their distance
out of respect.

138
00:06:41,776 --> 00:06:44,237
Sure. If that
makes sense to you.

139
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,449
Alright, let's start
with opportunity.

140
00:06:47,532 --> 00:06:50,660
Everyone was at the Arconia
when Ben was pushed,

141
00:06:50,744 --> 00:06:53,204
and everyone was at the theater
when he collapsed.

142
00:06:53,288 --> 00:06:54,372
Could be a coincidence.

143
00:06:54,456 --> 00:06:56,249
No, coincidence is
like meeting someone

144
00:06:56,332 --> 00:06:57,751
who has the
same birthday as you.

145
00:06:57,834 --> 00:06:59,252
Cops said his
blood was clean,

146
00:06:59,294 --> 00:07:01,046
but maybe it was one
of those poisons

147
00:07:01,129 --> 00:07:02,714
that dissipates
within five minutes.

148
00:07:02,797 --> 00:07:05,467
Like succinylcholine chloride!

149
00:07:05,967 --> 00:07:07,385
- Hm.
- What?

150
00:07:07,469 --> 00:07:10,680
Okay, so, uh, someone tried
to poison him, failed,

151
00:07:10,764 --> 00:07:12,849
and then finished the job
at the Arconia.

152
00:07:12,932 --> 00:07:16,561
But who would wanna kill Ben
bad enough to kill him twice?

153
00:07:16,644 --> 00:07:18,521
Jonathan, the understudy?

154
00:07:18,605 --> 00:07:21,149
Was he looking for
his moment in the limelight?

155
00:07:21,232 --> 00:07:22,734
Hm. Donna and Cliff?

156
00:07:22,817 --> 00:07:25,820
Did they want to be rid
of their demanding lead?

157
00:07:25,904 --> 00:07:28,865
Kimber, the TikTok-addicted starlet.

158
00:07:28,948 --> 00:07:31,785
Did she do it as part
of an internet mem?

159
00:07:32,869 --> 00:07:34,329
Why are you saying
it like that?

160
00:07:34,412 --> 00:07:35,955
No, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.

161
00:07:36,039 --> 00:07:39,709
The night Ben died,
he apologized to Kimber

162
00:07:39,793 --> 00:07:41,252
for "making things messy."

163
00:07:41,336 --> 00:07:42,337
Do you think they
were hooking up?

164
00:07:42,462 --> 00:07:43,462
I don't know.

165
00:07:43,546 --> 00:07:44,714
But another female killer?

166
00:07:44,798 --> 00:07:46,007
That's so done.

167
00:07:46,091 --> 00:07:47,384
The night that Ben died,

168
00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:50,470
he was holding
someone else's handkerchief.

169
00:07:51,304 --> 00:07:54,307
We need to find out who
in the cast doesn't have theirs!

170
00:07:55,016 --> 00:07:56,016
That could be our killer!

171
00:07:58,395 --> 00:08:01,314
It's Oliver. Rehearsal
at his place now?

172
00:08:02,065 --> 00:08:03,817
- Guess I have to go.
- I'll be right behind you.

173
00:08:05,151 --> 00:08:07,153
Wait, Oliver's texting me now.

174
00:08:07,237 --> 00:08:09,781
I am no longer welcome
at his apartment.

175
00:08:09,864 --> 00:08:10,907
I am banned?

176
00:08:11,533 --> 00:08:13,743
No investigating
during rehearsals?

177
00:08:13,827 --> 00:08:15,995
Whatever. I'm gonna go
check out Ben's penthouse.

178
00:08:16,079 --> 00:08:18,248
Lester said that Dickie was
gonna be cleaning it out soon.

179
00:08:18,331 --> 00:08:20,250
You find someone
who doesn't have a hankie.

180
00:08:20,333 --> 00:08:21,876
Find someone who doesn't
have a hankie.

181
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,253
I can do that.
That's no biggie.

182
00:08:23,336 --> 00:08:24,629
That's a smallie.

183
00:08:24,713 --> 00:08:26,840
That's a very small
thing because…

184
00:08:29,509 --> 00:08:31,302
I say, "Hey, a thankie
for a hankie?"

185
00:08:32,429 --> 00:08:33,430
But I'm not gonna do that.

186
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:34,764
I will find something int-

187
00:08:34,848 --> 00:08:36,266
more interesting
to get it.

188
00:08:36,349 --> 00:08:38,101
These are the pages?
Why aren't they in order?

189
00:08:38,184 --> 00:08:39,894
Well, they weren't numbered
when you sent them to me,

190
00:08:39,978 --> 00:08:41,688
and most of them are
on old takeout menus.

191
00:08:41,771 --> 00:08:44,274
Oh, okay. So, the stuff written
on the appetizers page

192
00:08:44,357 --> 00:08:46,359
goes before the stuff written
on the main courses.

193
00:08:46,443 --> 00:08:47,986
Also, wh-where's Loretta?

194
00:08:48,069 --> 00:08:49,362
I left two messages.
Nothing.

195
00:08:49,446 --> 00:08:51,698
Well, keep trying,
please, Howard.

196
00:08:53,324 --> 00:08:55,368
This feels weird.
Why?

197
00:08:55,452 --> 00:08:57,704
Because this production
is littered with red flags,

198
00:08:57,787 --> 00:08:59,164
and we're in
our director's apartment

199
00:08:59,247 --> 00:09:01,166
instead of an
actual rehearsal studio?

200
00:09:01,249 --> 00:09:03,251
Oh, hey! Hey.

201
00:09:04,252 --> 00:09:06,296
Remember those hankies
that Ben gave us?

202
00:09:06,379 --> 00:09:07,922
What if we each found ours

203
00:09:08,006 --> 00:09:10,175
and just showed them
to each other?

204
00:09:10,467 --> 00:09:12,177
Or me? Show them to me.

205
00:09:12,260 --> 00:09:14,554
Sorry, we're all
a little distracted

206
00:09:14,637 --> 00:09:17,515
with our leading man,
you know, being dead.

207
00:09:17,599 --> 00:09:20,018
Oh, yeah.
Well, that, that makes sense

208
00:09:20,101 --> 00:09:23,355
because losing anybody is hard.
Well, not anyone.

209
00:09:23,438 --> 00:09:25,357
Not like a Hitler or a Stalin.

210
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,400
Though, I would not want
to diminish the grief

211
00:09:27,484 --> 00:09:29,736
of Mrs. Stalin.
And yes,

212
00:09:29,819 --> 00:09:32,030
I know she has a name.

213
00:09:32,113 --> 00:09:34,574
Uh… Oh, Nadezhda…

214
00:09:36,910 --> 00:09:40,121
Anyway, the point is
Ben is dead!

215
00:09:40,205 --> 00:09:42,457
And I think it would
be healing for us

216
00:09:42,540 --> 00:09:43,875
to come up with a memorial.

217
00:09:43,958 --> 00:09:45,835
That's why I brought up
those hankies in the first place

218
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:47,504
because wouldn't it be fun…

219
00:09:47,587 --> 00:09:49,964
Oh! Not fun, but good,

220
00:09:50,048 --> 00:09:51,716
to take what Ben gave us,

221
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:56,471
those hankies,
and use them to create a…

222
00:09:56,930 --> 00:09:57,832
quilt.

223
00:09:57,847 --> 00:09:59,808
Or a quilt-type object?

224
00:10:01,017 --> 00:10:02,394
What were you saying
about Hitler?

225
00:10:04,104 --> 00:10:05,814
Thank you, Howard.

226
00:10:05,897 --> 00:10:07,524
I said thank you, Howard!

227
00:10:09,317 --> 00:10:12,112
I sense a great deal
of sadness in this room.

228
00:10:13,113 --> 00:10:14,489
We've lost someone important.

229
00:10:15,198 --> 00:10:17,951
I remember when my mom passed.

230
00:10:18,535 --> 00:10:19,953
Some of you are
probably thinking,

231
00:10:20,036 --> 00:10:23,331
"Isn't he too young to
have lost a parent?" I'm not.

232
00:10:23,873 --> 00:10:26,626
I lost her, and it wrecked me.

233
00:10:26,710 --> 00:10:27,961
Big time.

234
00:10:29,212 --> 00:10:31,673
But she kept teaching me
from the beyond,

235
00:10:31,756 --> 00:10:33,508
my mommy girl.

236
00:10:33,591 --> 00:10:35,010
Do you know what she said?

237
00:10:35,093 --> 00:10:36,803
"You can't let death

238
00:10:36,886 --> 00:10:39,222
stop you from livin', kid."

239
00:10:40,390 --> 00:10:41,933
Mama was a smoker.

240
00:10:42,017 --> 00:10:43,351
Oh.
So, who's with me?

241
00:10:43,435 --> 00:10:46,521
Who wants to keep
doing the play?

242
00:10:49,107 --> 00:10:52,068
Who wants to bring Death Rattle
back to life?

243
00:10:52,152 --> 00:10:53,528
Yeah.

244
00:10:53,611 --> 00:10:56,281
And turn it into a musical?

245
00:11:00,201 --> 00:11:01,703
Oh. Hi.

246
00:11:02,620 --> 00:11:03,621
Hi.

247
00:11:07,334 --> 00:11:09,085
You're going to
the penthouse?

248
00:11:09,169 --> 00:11:10,337
Oh, yeah.

249
00:11:10,503 --> 00:11:12,922
I left some equipment at Ben's
I need to pick up.

250
00:11:14,299 --> 00:11:15,383
Doing a documentary on him.

251
00:11:15,467 --> 00:11:17,427
- Ah. Right.
- Or, I was.

252
00:11:17,510 --> 00:11:19,012
You're the guy with the name.

253
00:11:19,095 --> 00:11:21,598
It's Tobert.
Robert with a T.

254
00:11:22,557 --> 00:11:23,892
My mom was insane.

255
00:11:23,975 --> 00:11:26,019
No, I get it.
I am a Mabel,

256
00:11:26,102 --> 00:11:27,687
so…

257
00:11:27,771 --> 00:11:29,647
Are you going to
the penthouse, too, or…

258
00:11:30,774 --> 00:11:32,901
Yeah, I have to pick up
something.

259
00:11:32,984 --> 00:11:35,111
Oh. What's that?

260
00:11:36,237 --> 00:11:38,615
- Take your time.
- A signed headshot

261
00:11:38,698 --> 00:11:40,742
- from Ben's Girl Cop days.
- Hm.

262
00:11:40,825 --> 00:11:42,243
- Sure.
- He left it for me.

263
00:11:42,327 --> 00:11:44,412
- Wow.
- I don't know where,

264
00:11:44,496 --> 00:11:46,039
so I'm gonna have
to look around.

265
00:11:46,122 --> 00:11:48,500
- Sure.
- Maybe for a while.

266
00:11:49,834 --> 00:11:51,628
Sounds perfectly reasonable.

267
00:11:51,711 --> 00:11:54,464
And delivered so naturally.

268
00:11:56,633 --> 00:11:57,884
- Oh, please.
- Oh, yeah.

269
00:12:03,556 --> 00:12:04,766
You need me to let you in?

270
00:12:13,525 --> 00:12:15,026
Wow!

271
00:12:18,697 --> 00:12:21,199
This is my third time
in this apartment,

272
00:12:22,450 --> 00:12:24,452
and I've never loved it more.

273
00:12:27,330 --> 00:12:29,249
And all together.

274
00:12:51,062 --> 00:12:53,106
So, that's our showstopper.

275
00:12:53,189 --> 00:12:54,524
Do you love it, or
do you love it?

276
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:56,067
I think it's brilliant!

277
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,113
So sorry I'm late.

278
00:13:00,196 --> 00:13:02,198
Ben's brother, Dickie,

279
00:13:02,282 --> 00:13:04,325
he sort of offered
to be my manager.

280
00:13:04,409 --> 00:13:07,996
You know, he's been feeling
a little low lately, I think.

281
00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:09,164
- So…
- No, I love that. So, I mean,

282
00:13:09,247 --> 00:13:10,749
y-you and he have
become close chums.

283
00:13:10,832 --> 00:13:13,043
Yeah, yeah.
He's sweet, you know?

284
00:13:13,126 --> 00:13:16,379
Anyway, he's got some really
great connections

285
00:13:16,463 --> 00:13:19,132
and he made some
phone calls for me,

286
00:13:19,215 --> 00:13:21,426
and… I got an audition!

287
00:13:21,509 --> 00:13:23,011
- An audition?
- Yeah.

288
00:13:23,094 --> 00:13:25,055
Oh, really? For w-what?

289
00:13:25,138 --> 00:13:26,598
A network drama.

290
00:13:27,599 --> 00:13:30,435
And it's an offshoot
of an offshoot

291
00:13:30,518 --> 00:13:32,145
of a Grey's Anatomy spinoff.

292
00:13:32,228 --> 00:13:34,606
And it's for the mother
of a dermatologist,

293
00:13:34,689 --> 00:13:38,068
so she has a backstory,
Oliver.

294
00:13:38,151 --> 00:13:39,736
And, uh, lines,

295
00:13:39,819 --> 00:13:41,154
- you know?
- Oh.

296
00:13:41,237 --> 00:13:44,657
And the producer said
they might give her a limp.

297
00:13:44,741 --> 00:13:45,741
Yeah.

298
00:13:45,784 --> 00:13:46,784
So…

299
00:13:47,452 --> 00:13:50,163
- it's juicy.
- But can we go back to the thing

300
00:13:50,246 --> 00:13:52,082
about my musical
being brilliant, you said?

301
00:13:52,165 --> 00:13:55,251
Oh, yeah!
So, anyway…

302
00:13:55,335 --> 00:13:58,880
Making this
into a musical is…

303
00:13:58,963 --> 00:14:00,382
odd, Oliver.

304
00:14:00,465 --> 00:14:03,968
But, ironically, that might be
what makes it accessible.

305
00:14:04,052 --> 00:14:07,097
You know, I was in the original cast
of Little Shop of Horrors,

306
00:14:07,180 --> 00:14:08,723
when they were
workshopping it.

307
00:14:08,807 --> 00:14:11,309
Uh, back then, they were
calling it Eat Me, Seymour.

308
00:14:12,227 --> 00:14:13,687
N… Feed Me, Seymour!

309
00:14:13,770 --> 00:14:15,605
- That was it.
- Yeah, "Feed Me."

310
00:14:15,689 --> 00:14:18,775
And nobody got
that show either, you know?

311
00:14:18,858 --> 00:14:20,402
Because it's a singing plant.

312
00:14:20,485 --> 00:14:22,696
It was just like
lunacy!

313
00:14:22,779 --> 00:14:24,614
But it worked.

314
00:14:24,698 --> 00:14:26,825
Why? Because, at heart,

315
00:14:26,908 --> 00:14:29,619
it's just a simple
story of a boy

316
00:14:29,703 --> 00:14:32,414
who would do anything
for the girl he loves.

317
00:14:32,497 --> 00:14:33,581
You know, it didn't matter

318
00:14:33,665 --> 00:14:35,125
how big and loud and
crazy it was.

319
00:14:35,208 --> 00:14:37,419
It was just because
it felt true, and…

320
00:14:39,796 --> 00:14:40,964
- Exactly.
- Yeah.

321
00:14:41,047 --> 00:14:42,090
You get it.

322
00:14:42,173 --> 00:14:43,383
Everybody! Loretta gets it!

323
00:14:43,466 --> 00:14:46,011
We can be as wild and
exciting as we want!

324
00:14:46,136 --> 00:14:48,471
Yeah. And Ellen Greene
got that part.

325
00:14:48,555 --> 00:14:50,557
- Yeah.
- She was good.

326
00:14:51,182 --> 00:14:52,392
She was great!

327
00:14:52,475 --> 00:14:54,936
It was a big hit.
And we could have a hit,

328
00:14:55,020 --> 00:14:57,022
as long as we find the heart.

329
00:14:57,105 --> 00:14:58,690
- Oh, absolutely.
- Yeah.

330
00:14:58,773 --> 00:15:01,317
W-We are gonna have
so much heart on stage

331
00:15:01,401 --> 00:15:02,777
that even cardiologists
in the audience

332
00:15:02,861 --> 00:15:04,154
are gonna be screaming,

333
00:15:04,237 --> 00:15:06,573
"That's enough heart for me!
Thank you very much!"

334
00:15:06,656 --> 00:15:07,991
Wait, who's gonna
be screaming?

335
00:15:08,074 --> 00:15:09,367
- Okay, let's get to it.
- Oliver?

336
00:15:09,451 --> 00:15:11,453
From the top. Ready?

337
00:15:13,538 --> 00:15:15,582
How's the headshot
hunt coming?

338
00:15:15,665 --> 00:15:18,835
Uh, maybe it's under this
marble snake egg from CoBro.

339
00:15:20,045 --> 00:15:21,296
Nope.

340
00:15:21,379 --> 00:15:23,381
Any luck finding your…
A boom mic.

341
00:15:23,465 --> 00:15:26,843
Left my boom mic here
before Ben died.

342
00:15:26,926 --> 00:15:30,138
Um, so now, I'm just,
just looking for it.

343
00:15:30,972 --> 00:15:33,308
You think your boom mic
is in a drawer?

344
00:15:35,060 --> 00:15:36,811
- Listen, Margo…
- Mabel.

345
00:15:36,895 --> 00:15:41,107
I'm sorry. You were making fun
of my name, Tobert?

346
00:15:41,191 --> 00:15:42,484
You know what, we're both
clearly up to something…

347
00:15:42,567 --> 00:15:43,470
…and we're both clearly

348
00:15:43,485 --> 00:15:44,652
pretty shitty liars.

349
00:15:44,736 --> 00:15:47,989
So how about we do this?
You do you, and I'll do me,

350
00:15:48,073 --> 00:15:49,073
and then we can both…

351
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,285
Oh, shit. Uh…

352
00:15:52,369 --> 00:15:54,162
- Armoire. Now!
- What? Wh… Why?

353
00:16:16,393 --> 00:16:17,894
He's still packing.

354
00:16:18,603 --> 00:16:20,605
You're looking
for something for your podcast.

355
00:16:21,272 --> 00:16:22,565
Thought I recognized
your voice.

356
00:16:22,649 --> 00:16:24,275
It's funny, I kinda
had a mental image

357
00:16:24,359 --> 00:16:25,902
of what you look like.

358
00:16:25,985 --> 00:16:27,696
You are not what I expected.

359
00:16:28,822 --> 00:16:31,574
Okay, so you listened
to the podcast.

360
00:16:31,658 --> 00:16:33,576
I liked the first season
a little better than the second season,

361
00:16:33,660 --> 00:16:35,370
but it was cute.

362
00:16:35,453 --> 00:16:37,664
- Cute?
- I mean, I liked it.

363
00:16:37,747 --> 00:16:40,041
Thanks. I know it's
not the high art

364
00:16:40,125 --> 00:16:42,877
of following Ben Glenroy
around with a GoPro,

365
00:16:42,961 --> 00:16:45,422
but we tried.
Dammit.

366
00:16:46,756 --> 00:16:48,216
Goddammit, Ben.

367
00:16:49,092 --> 00:16:50,510
Why?

368
00:16:54,514 --> 00:16:57,142
Sorry!

369
00:16:58,101 --> 00:16:59,477
I'm so sorry, Ben.

370
00:17:00,020 --> 00:17:02,689
Oh.

371
00:17:05,650 --> 00:17:07,652
Go for Ben.
Or, g-go for Dickie.

372
00:17:08,862 --> 00:17:10,155
Uh, yeah, I'll hold.

373
00:17:12,615 --> 00:17:13,950
One and a-two!

374
00:17:14,034 --> 00:17:15,785
And here come the crab men!

375
00:17:15,869 --> 00:17:16,953
The what?

376
00:17:17,037 --> 00:17:19,122
And the crab men are breeding!

377
00:17:19,205 --> 00:17:21,541
Breeding! Breeding! Breeding!

378
00:17:21,624 --> 00:17:24,085
And now, cue the nanny!

379
00:17:34,596 --> 00:17:37,599
Well, it's
a start. Uh…

380
00:17:38,308 --> 00:17:40,352
Give me, uh,
one or two seconds

381
00:17:40,435 --> 00:17:42,645
t-t-t-to
collect my thoughts.

382
00:17:42,729 --> 00:17:43,772
Oh.

383
00:17:50,570 --> 00:17:52,489
You're screwed, Putnam!

384
00:17:53,782 --> 00:17:56,409
Your dreams are dust now!

385
00:17:56,493 --> 00:18:00,246
Welcome to Hell!
And you're your own Satan!

386
00:18:01,664 --> 00:18:03,124
Yes?

387
00:18:05,502 --> 00:18:07,045
Ow, ow, ow!

388
00:18:07,128 --> 00:18:09,255
I'm just saying that
maybe alternative financing

389
00:18:09,339 --> 00:18:10,715
- might reduce your stress.
- Don't touch me.

390
00:18:11,466 --> 00:18:12,634
Well…

391
00:18:12,717 --> 00:18:14,886
Guys, we are so, so close.

392
00:18:14,969 --> 00:18:17,305
Why don't we start fresh
tomorrow morning?

393
00:18:17,389 --> 00:18:18,375
Yeah.

394
00:18:18,390 --> 00:18:20,392
Yeah, it's always
best to end

395
00:18:20,475 --> 00:18:21,976
when you're on a high.

396
00:18:23,061 --> 00:18:24,521
- Or near a high.
- Oh, yes.

397
00:18:35,407 --> 00:18:38,618
Look at them.
Bonding over their hatred of me.

398
00:18:38,702 --> 00:18:41,454
Nothing brings people together
like a common enemy.

399
00:18:41,538 --> 00:18:43,081
That, or a good cheese plate.

400
00:18:44,708 --> 00:18:47,711
Actually, that might be my in.

401
00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:50,088
Oliver,

402
00:18:50,171 --> 00:18:53,675
how would you feel
if I threw you under the bus?

403
00:18:53,758 --> 00:18:56,261
You know,
knock yourself out.

404
00:18:56,344 --> 00:18:58,555
I was about to throw myself
in front of one.

405
00:19:00,890 --> 00:19:04,227
I didn't mean
to insult you earlier, okay?

406
00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:05,979
I shouldn't have led
with the word "cute."

407
00:19:06,479 --> 00:19:08,773
I actually think
your podcast is innovative.

408
00:19:08,857 --> 00:19:11,151
It's smart, it's unpolished
in a refreshing way.

409
00:19:11,234 --> 00:19:13,695
Feel free to leave
a five-star review.

410
00:19:13,778 --> 00:19:14,946
And it was cute.

411
00:19:15,071 --> 00:19:18,783
Before this job,
I was in Botswana for a year,

412
00:19:18,867 --> 00:19:21,578
tracking this incredible herd
of elephants. Have you been?

413
00:19:21,661 --> 00:19:23,329
I do most of my
elephant following

414
00:19:23,413 --> 00:19:24,357
at the Bronx Zoo.

415
00:19:24,372 --> 00:19:26,249
Botswana, I strongly
recommend.

416
00:19:26,332 --> 00:19:28,585
The landscape,
the people, the food.

417
00:19:28,668 --> 00:19:30,420
Oh God, you gotta try vetkoek.

418
00:19:30,503 --> 00:19:31,755
It's this amazing fried dough,

419
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,049
you can put a whole lot
of different things in it.

420
00:19:34,132 --> 00:19:36,092
Minced meats or these
great curries.

421
00:19:36,176 --> 00:19:38,219
I actually found a terrific
place in Jackson Heights.

422
00:19:38,303 --> 00:19:40,805
I go every morning for one
with a little bit of jam.

423
00:19:40,889 --> 00:19:43,767
Uh, it's on,
I wanna say 87th and…

424
00:19:43,850 --> 00:19:44,850
Am I rambling?

425
00:19:44,893 --> 00:19:47,896
Maybe less dough,
more elephants.

426
00:19:47,979 --> 00:19:51,274
Okay. So, there's this place,
the Okavango Delta.

427
00:19:51,358 --> 00:19:53,818
Three times a year,
the basin floods,

428
00:19:53,902 --> 00:19:56,905
and thousands of animals,
I mean thousands,

429
00:19:56,988 --> 00:19:59,366
they all descend
in one place.

430
00:19:59,449 --> 00:20:02,077
And I was there
for weeks alone,

431
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,828
just perched in a tree,

432
00:20:03,912 --> 00:20:07,624
watching nature,
in all of its intimate beauty.

433
00:20:08,500 --> 00:20:10,126
And horror.

434
00:20:11,961 --> 00:20:15,590
Anyway, um,
there's this one time

435
00:20:15,674 --> 00:20:17,425
where I'm perched
up in the tree,

436
00:20:17,509 --> 00:20:20,887
and I'm looking out,
and I see this baby elephant

437
00:20:20,970 --> 00:20:22,806
getting stuck in the mud.

438
00:20:23,264 --> 00:20:26,935
And, you know, I'm up in a tree,
but I'm also at a crossroads

439
00:20:27,018 --> 00:20:29,771
because should I hop down
and save the elephant?

440
00:20:29,854 --> 00:20:31,773
Or should I do my job
as a documentarian,

441
00:20:31,856 --> 00:20:34,984
and just film what happens,
you know?

442
00:20:35,068 --> 00:20:36,820
And with flooding,
it's tricky because you gotta…

443
00:20:36,903 --> 00:20:38,780
Okay, not that I'm…

444
00:20:38,863 --> 00:20:41,950
not enjoying this
National Geographic moment,

445
00:20:42,033 --> 00:20:44,327
but if Ben's dead,

446
00:20:44,411 --> 00:20:46,454
why are you still here?

447
00:20:46,538 --> 00:20:49,207
Why not hop on a plane
back to Botswana?

448
00:20:49,290 --> 00:20:51,042
Because Ben's dead.

449
00:20:51,126 --> 00:20:54,379
I mean, "famous star
murdered by his biggest fan."

450
00:20:55,005 --> 00:20:56,798
Yeah, Dickie
ended my contract,

451
00:20:56,881 --> 00:20:58,216
but there's an
incredible story here,

452
00:20:58,299 --> 00:21:00,760
and I have a really unique
access to it.

453
00:21:02,595 --> 00:21:06,266
You know, I was
with Ben opening night,

454
00:21:06,349 --> 00:21:07,559
and he ripped away my camera,

455
00:21:07,642 --> 00:21:09,769
and stormed off into
his dressing room,

456
00:21:09,853 --> 00:21:11,146
but it was still recording.

457
00:21:11,229 --> 00:21:12,522
Footage from the
night he died.

458
00:21:12,605 --> 00:21:14,024
That's what you
were looking for.

459
00:21:14,107 --> 00:21:16,192
That's what I found.

460
00:21:16,276 --> 00:21:18,069
- Let me see it!
- No. For your podcast?

461
00:21:18,153 --> 00:21:19,612
Yeah, right.
…wanna tell her…

462
00:21:19,696 --> 00:21:21,990
Shh!
Yeah. Okay.

463
00:21:22,073 --> 00:21:24,325
I will, uh,
I will let her know.

464
00:21:24,409 --> 00:21:28,079
And, yes, hopefully,
I'll see you there. Okay.

465
00:21:41,009 --> 00:21:42,969
Alright. Well,

466
00:21:43,053 --> 00:21:46,056
- take care, Madeline.
- Mabel. Wait, Flobert!

467
00:21:47,766 --> 00:21:50,268
What happened to the
baby elephant?

468
00:21:51,644 --> 00:21:53,563
In the mud?

469
00:21:53,646 --> 00:21:54,856
Well, I couldn't
just sit there,

470
00:21:54,939 --> 00:21:57,233
so I jumped down,
grabbed some rope,

471
00:21:57,317 --> 00:21:59,319
and worked for three hours
to pull it out.

472
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:01,654
Wow.

473
00:22:02,489 --> 00:22:03,990
That's amazing.

474
00:22:06,034 --> 00:22:08,536
I'll see you around, Mabel.

475
00:22:09,913 --> 00:22:11,915
Ta-ta, Tobbie.

476
00:22:20,507 --> 00:22:22,217
Did it ever occur to Oliver

477
00:22:22,300 --> 00:22:23,802
that maybe the problem
isn't us?

478
00:22:23,885 --> 00:22:25,512
Maybe it's the material?
Mm-hmm.

479
00:22:25,595 --> 00:22:27,722
- Yeah, Oliver's bad.
- Exactly. I mean,

480
00:22:27,806 --> 00:22:29,849
I don't get anyone's
intentions in this thing.

481
00:22:29,933 --> 00:22:30,877
Mm-mm.

482
00:22:30,892 --> 00:22:32,060
Like, now
there are crab men,

483
00:22:32,143 --> 00:22:33,186
and they're breeding.

484
00:22:33,269 --> 00:22:34,270
But why?

485
00:22:34,396 --> 00:22:36,314
For me, it's the way
that Oliver yells.

486
00:22:36,398 --> 00:22:37,857
Yeah! A-And what
about his hair?

487
00:22:37,941 --> 00:22:39,401
Who needs all that hair?

488
00:22:39,901 --> 00:22:41,903
N-No, I think we're
fine with his hair.

489
00:22:41,986 --> 00:22:43,405
I like his hair.
I like hair.

490
00:22:43,488 --> 00:22:45,365
Hey, you know what
I was just thinking?

491
00:22:45,448 --> 00:22:48,326
What if we took all of the
hankies that Ben gave us,

492
00:22:48,410 --> 00:22:50,495
and we threw them
at Oliver's feet?

493
00:22:50,578 --> 00:22:52,122
That would make a statement!

494
00:22:53,164 --> 00:22:55,458
And then I would pick up
the hankies later for the quilt.

495
00:22:55,542 --> 00:22:57,168
- I'll bring my hankie tomorrow.
- Same.

496
00:22:57,252 --> 00:22:58,712
Me, too.
Awesome.

497
00:22:58,795 --> 00:23:01,089
Because I would take them.
You know, I've…

498
00:23:01,589 --> 00:23:04,092
I've been kinda numb
since Ben died.

499
00:23:05,260 --> 00:23:08,221
But I-I keep wanting to
feel something.

500
00:23:08,304 --> 00:23:10,974
You know, to cry, but…

501
00:23:11,057 --> 00:23:12,057
I can't.

502
00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:13,393
Are you on Xanax?

503
00:23:13,476 --> 00:23:14,477
No. Why? Do you have some?

504
00:23:14,561 --> 00:23:16,604
No.
Either way,

505
00:23:16,688 --> 00:23:19,441
we should totally demand
to go back to the straight play.

506
00:23:19,524 --> 00:23:21,276
This musical version
of Oliver's

507
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,195
is disrespectful to
Ben's memory, right?

508
00:23:24,279 --> 00:23:25,279
TY/JONATHAN: Yeah.
Mm-hmm.

509
00:23:25,321 --> 00:23:27,157
So, Charles,
you'll tell Oliver

510
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:28,575
we're not gonna
do the musical, right?

511
00:23:28,658 --> 00:23:30,035
Yeah. We're not gonna
do the mu…

512
00:23:30,118 --> 00:23:31,244
We're not gonna
do the musical?

513
00:23:31,327 --> 00:23:32,579
Great. You got it.

514
00:23:34,873 --> 00:23:36,207
Oh, I'll tell him.

515
00:23:40,462 --> 00:23:41,755
Everyone else is gone.

516
00:23:42,672 --> 00:23:45,258
Oh. I was just looking
at the song ideas

517
00:23:45,342 --> 00:23:46,342
you have sketched out

518
00:23:46,384 --> 00:23:48,928
on this Chinese food menu.

519
00:23:50,305 --> 00:23:53,683
I have to say,
your lyrics make me feel…

520
00:23:54,642 --> 00:23:55,935
hungry.

521
00:23:58,063 --> 00:24:00,565
Yeah.

522
00:24:02,692 --> 00:24:04,694
Here we are again.

523
00:24:04,778 --> 00:24:07,155
At the piano.

524
00:24:09,157 --> 00:24:11,701
- Like when we…
- Oh, I'm sorry. Yes. Um…

525
00:24:13,661 --> 00:24:16,414
This is not my best day
as a director.

526
00:24:16,498 --> 00:24:17,832
That was…

527
00:24:17,916 --> 00:24:20,293
in 1988, when I got my Tony.

528
00:24:21,628 --> 00:24:23,254
Tony was a dog I owned.

529
00:24:23,338 --> 00:24:26,925
And yes, I-I did choose
that name to confuse people.

530
00:24:27,008 --> 00:24:29,844
I love how all of your stories

531
00:24:29,928 --> 00:24:32,931
always end miles from
where you start.

532
00:24:33,014 --> 00:24:35,016
Ah. Thank you.

533
00:24:39,354 --> 00:24:41,356
What do I have to do…

534
00:24:42,148 --> 00:24:45,151
to get people to
see what I see?

535
00:24:47,195 --> 00:24:48,613
Can you help me?

536
00:24:48,697 --> 00:24:50,198
No, I'm afraid not.

537
00:24:53,785 --> 00:24:55,286
What about this one?

538
00:24:55,912 --> 00:24:56,815
This one.

539
00:24:56,830 --> 00:24:57,997
The Nanny's Lullaby.

540
00:24:58,081 --> 00:24:59,624
- Yeah.
- Okay. No, I know it.

541
00:25:16,808 --> 00:25:17,976
- Oh, what?
- Nah.

542
00:25:18,059 --> 00:25:20,603
Come on.
Oliver, that is good.

543
00:25:20,687 --> 00:25:23,857
No, I-I promised Donna
"Oliver Putnam,"

544
00:25:23,940 --> 00:25:26,735
meaning big and loud
and… big.

545
00:25:26,818 --> 00:25:28,820
Yeah, but I think we all know

546
00:25:28,903 --> 00:25:30,947
that you are more
than just loud.

547
00:25:31,990 --> 00:25:34,284
What I love about…

548
00:25:35,243 --> 00:25:38,163
Oliver Putnam's shows is that

549
00:25:38,246 --> 00:25:42,208
underneath all the bombast
and the chaos and the…

550
00:25:43,293 --> 00:25:45,837
breeding crab men,

551
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,131
it's just, there's
a vulnerability.

552
00:25:49,257 --> 00:25:50,383
That's what makes…

553
00:25:53,345 --> 00:25:54,929
Oliver Putnam…

554
00:25:55,013 --> 00:25:56,765
special.

555
00:25:59,934 --> 00:26:01,728
A-As a director.

556
00:26:01,811 --> 00:26:04,147
Hello? The door was unlocked.
Oh.

557
00:26:04,230 --> 00:26:05,565
Hi!
Oh, good.

558
00:26:05,648 --> 00:26:07,067
I was hoping you'd
still be here.

559
00:26:07,150 --> 00:26:09,486
- Yeah.
- You got the part.

560
00:26:10,278 --> 00:26:11,446
I what?

561
00:26:11,529 --> 00:26:12,989
Grey's New Orleans
Family Burn Unit.

562
00:26:13,073 --> 00:26:14,074
They called.
They love you.

563
00:26:14,157 --> 00:26:15,241
- Oh.
- Oh no! Oh, Dickie!

564
00:26:15,325 --> 00:26:16,409
I couldn't get 'em
off the phone!

565
00:26:16,493 --> 00:26:17,619
Dickie!

566
00:26:17,702 --> 00:26:19,287
I'm the mom in the family

567
00:26:19,371 --> 00:26:21,373
in Family Burn Unit!

568
00:26:21,456 --> 00:26:22,791
Oh, my God!

569
00:26:23,625 --> 00:26:24,709
And I get a limp!

570
00:26:24,793 --> 00:26:26,336
- Oh.
- Oh!

571
00:26:26,419 --> 00:26:27,921
I can't believe it.
Pinch me.

572
00:26:28,004 --> 00:26:29,881
I'll do you one better.
Congratulations!

573
00:26:29,964 --> 00:26:32,092
Oh, thank you!

574
00:26:32,175 --> 00:26:33,385
It starts next week in LA,

575
00:26:33,468 --> 00:26:34,928
so we have to
let 'em know right away.

576
00:26:35,011 --> 00:26:36,179
- We do.
- Wait, wait.

577
00:26:36,262 --> 00:26:38,098
Excuse me. I-I'm sorry.

578
00:26:38,181 --> 00:26:39,933
It sounds like a wonderful opportunity,

579
00:26:40,016 --> 00:26:41,017
- but, uh…
- Yeah.

580
00:26:41,101 --> 00:26:43,937
She has to be here
for the play next week.

581
00:26:44,020 --> 00:26:45,020
Yeah.

582
00:26:45,689 --> 00:26:48,024
Oh… Okay.

583
00:26:48,108 --> 00:26:49,901
Well, is there any flexibility
on their end?

584
00:26:49,984 --> 00:26:52,862
There's really not.
It's a guaranteed season pickup.

585
00:26:52,946 --> 00:26:55,740
That's stability, right?
No more scrounging for work?

586
00:26:58,201 --> 00:27:00,912
Yeah, okay. So…

587
00:27:01,621 --> 00:27:03,623
Sure, then…

588
00:27:04,207 --> 00:27:05,333
Well, Oliver, I…

589
00:27:05,417 --> 00:27:08,253
You cannot be serious.
What about our show?

590
00:27:08,336 --> 00:27:10,338
- Yeah.
- What about the last few months?

591
00:27:10,422 --> 00:27:11,589
Well,

592
00:27:11,673 --> 00:27:14,676
I will always
cherish this time.

593
00:27:14,759 --> 00:27:17,470
- I discovered you.
- But, I… Yes.

594
00:27:17,554 --> 00:27:19,556
That's not a reason
to punish me.

595
00:27:20,348 --> 00:27:23,018
Oliver, you lost
your leading man.

596
00:27:23,101 --> 00:27:25,645
You're trying to
make this play

597
00:27:25,729 --> 00:27:27,897
into a musical

598
00:27:27,981 --> 00:27:30,400
- that you wrote in 12…
- She's under contract.

599
00:27:34,696 --> 00:27:36,531
Oliver, I…

600
00:27:36,614 --> 00:27:38,700
You're under contract.

601
00:27:38,783 --> 00:27:40,285
Sorry.

602
00:27:49,753 --> 00:27:50,795
Fuck!

603
00:28:01,014 --> 00:28:03,516
You enjoying your
morning vetkeok?

604
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,352
I didn't feel you
swipe that drive from me.

605
00:28:05,435 --> 00:28:07,562
I gotta hand it to you,
you got the touch.

606
00:28:09,439 --> 00:28:10,940
What's the password?

607
00:28:11,024 --> 00:28:12,108
I need to know what happened

608
00:28:12,192 --> 00:28:13,860
right before Ben collapsed
on stage.

609
00:28:13,943 --> 00:28:15,195
Well, you're in luck.

610
00:28:15,278 --> 00:28:16,821
I'm making a movie about
exactly that.

611
00:28:16,905 --> 00:28:18,198
I can probably
get you a ticket.

612
00:28:18,281 --> 00:28:20,158
This isn't a joke.
This is urgent.

613
00:28:20,241 --> 00:28:21,743
I need to find who killed Ben.

614
00:28:21,826 --> 00:28:25,246
They know who did it.
The stalker guy in jail did it.

615
00:28:29,751 --> 00:28:33,463
You're not in Botswana
anymore, Robert with a T.

616
00:28:33,546 --> 00:28:35,799
This is where I do my work.

617
00:28:36,758 --> 00:28:37,842
And I'm really good at it,

618
00:28:37,926 --> 00:28:40,845
even if you think
it's just cute.

619
00:28:44,808 --> 00:28:46,267
I didn't get out of that tree.

620
00:28:46,935 --> 00:28:48,520
The baby elephant thing.
I lied.

621
00:28:48,603 --> 00:28:50,605
I didn't get out of the tree.

622
00:28:51,398 --> 00:28:53,817
I kept filming as it
got more and more tired,

623
00:28:53,900 --> 00:28:55,193
and more and more stuck.

624
00:28:57,237 --> 00:28:58,139
God.

625
00:28:58,154 --> 00:28:59,447
Its mom came back, finally,

626
00:28:59,531 --> 00:29:01,533
and, and saved it, but…

627
00:29:02,158 --> 00:29:03,993
if she hadn't,
I would've kept filming.

628
00:29:04,828 --> 00:29:06,913
That elephant,
that baby elephant

629
00:29:06,996 --> 00:29:09,207
slowly drowning in the mud.

630
00:29:09,290 --> 00:29:11,042
Jesus.

631
00:29:11,751 --> 00:29:13,753
Look, if you think Ben's
killer's still out there,

632
00:29:13,837 --> 00:29:14,963
then…

633
00:29:16,339 --> 00:29:18,049
I don't wanna stay
in the tree again.

634
00:29:26,391 --> 00:29:27,434
Hi.

635
00:29:28,852 --> 00:29:30,645
Hi?

636
00:29:31,396 --> 00:29:33,106
Before I tell you what
I'm about to tell you,

637
00:29:33,189 --> 00:29:35,817
I need your assurance
that you will not be angry.

638
00:29:35,900 --> 00:29:37,152
No.

639
00:29:38,361 --> 00:29:40,155
No one wants to
do the musical.

640
00:29:40,238 --> 00:29:41,489
Oh.

641
00:29:42,449 --> 00:29:43,435
No one?

642
00:29:43,450 --> 00:29:44,451
Well, the cast.

643
00:29:44,534 --> 00:29:46,369
Most of the people
who would do it,

644
00:29:46,453 --> 00:29:47,495
they don't wanna do it.

645
00:29:48,496 --> 00:29:49,748
Ah.

646
00:29:50,623 --> 00:29:52,375
They don't wanna
do the musical.

647
00:29:53,835 --> 00:29:55,670
That's fine.

648
00:29:55,754 --> 00:29:57,047
Perhaps they'd rather I…

649
00:29:57,130 --> 00:29:59,716
take this spoon, and stab myself
in the eye with it!

650
00:29:59,799 --> 00:30:02,385
And just stab and stab!

651
00:30:02,469 --> 00:30:05,263
So I'll be too dead
to be humiliated

652
00:30:05,347 --> 00:30:07,098
when Donna and Cliff get here,

653
00:30:07,182 --> 00:30:08,808
which is five minutes from now!

654
00:30:08,892 --> 00:30:10,852
I-I think they're just scared.

655
00:30:10,935 --> 00:30:13,563
They don't understand the show.
And I don't either,

656
00:30:13,646 --> 00:30:15,648
to be fair, but I come
from television,

657
00:30:15,732 --> 00:30:18,234
and I was trained
not to question a script.

658
00:30:18,318 --> 00:30:20,779
I can't even afford the supplemental.

659
00:30:20,862 --> 00:30:22,655
So, how am I gonna get…

660
00:30:24,741 --> 00:30:26,409
You're here.

661
00:30:26,493 --> 00:30:29,662
Well, I am
still under contract.

662
00:30:31,206 --> 00:30:33,208
- Dickie, would you mind?
- Oh, sure.

663
00:30:34,626 --> 00:30:37,128
I am so, so sorry.

664
00:30:38,338 --> 00:30:39,338
I was horrible.

665
00:30:39,381 --> 00:30:41,007
And this is no excuse.

666
00:30:41,091 --> 00:30:43,551
I was just scared
of losing you.

667
00:30:43,635 --> 00:30:46,096
Also, I haven't eaten
for many weeks.

668
00:30:46,179 --> 00:30:49,891
You do know that you're holding
a spoonful of cream cheese.

669
00:30:52,352 --> 00:30:54,145
Y-You're right. You're right.

670
00:30:54,229 --> 00:30:55,730
I'm a liar.

671
00:30:56,523 --> 00:30:58,024
But, you understand me, Loretta,

672
00:30:58,108 --> 00:31:00,151
and, and that's been a
rarity in my life.

673
00:31:00,235 --> 00:31:02,445
Why aren't we singing?

674
00:31:03,238 --> 00:31:05,281
I was hoping you would
do me a favor.

675
00:31:05,365 --> 00:31:06,866
Just one, um,

676
00:31:06,950 --> 00:31:10,161
before you leave for LA
and take Hollywood by storm.

677
00:31:12,664 --> 00:31:15,291
I'm not gonna enforce
the contract.

678
00:31:15,375 --> 00:31:18,169
I couldn't.
The world needs to see you.

679
00:31:22,007 --> 00:31:23,508
Well, what's the favor?

680
00:31:24,384 --> 00:31:25,969
Will you sing the lullaby?

681
00:31:26,845 --> 00:31:29,472
Wha… The…
We haven't even rehearsed it,

682
00:31:29,556 --> 00:31:31,057
and there's no choreography.

683
00:31:31,141 --> 00:31:33,935
And, you know,
certainly not a showstopper.

684
00:31:34,019 --> 00:31:35,520
But it is the show.

685
00:31:36,771 --> 00:31:38,064
And you're the only
one who sees it.

686
00:31:39,524 --> 00:31:41,401
Can you help them see too?

687
00:31:42,110 --> 00:31:44,571
I'll give it a shot.

688
00:31:44,654 --> 00:31:48,158
Let's get this over with because
I'm already "Amagansett sober."

689
00:31:48,241 --> 00:31:51,286
That's what
Mom calls drunk.

690
00:31:51,369 --> 00:31:54,372
Ah, good.
Maybe she'll be more forgiving.

691
00:31:57,250 --> 00:31:59,961
Alright! Um, slight
change of plans.

692
00:32:00,045 --> 00:32:02,422
Uh, we're not doing
Creatures of the Night anymore.

693
00:32:02,505 --> 00:32:04,466
But wasn't that your
opening showstopper?

694
00:32:04,549 --> 00:32:06,426
Yes, and it will be,

695
00:32:06,509 --> 00:32:09,471
but it's not yet, a-and
that's my fault.

696
00:32:09,554 --> 00:32:10,805
I'm sorry.

697
00:32:11,723 --> 00:32:12,974
But I-I…

698
00:32:14,059 --> 00:32:15,935
do have something for you.

699
00:32:17,145 --> 00:32:18,563
And…

700
00:32:18,980 --> 00:32:21,358
I think it might hold
the heart of the show.

701
00:32:26,237 --> 00:32:27,864
Okay, let me set the scene.

702
00:32:27,947 --> 00:32:29,949
It's late at the
Pickwick Lighthouse.

703
00:32:30,033 --> 00:32:31,826
The triplets cry out
in the night.

704
00:32:31,910 --> 00:32:34,204
Their mother has died,
but they're not alone.

705
00:32:35,663 --> 00:32:38,708
For their nanny is there,
looking after them.

706
00:33:20,125 --> 00:33:21,793
You're not supposed
to be here.

707
00:33:21,876 --> 00:33:24,170
There was someone
in his dressing room.

708
00:33:24,254 --> 00:33:25,547
BEN
Go!

709
00:33:25,630 --> 00:33:26,798
No, you're not
gonna go, are you?

710
00:33:26,881 --> 00:33:27,924
Y-You're just gonna sit there,

711
00:33:28,591 --> 00:33:30,176
acting all sweet.

712
00:33:31,803 --> 00:33:34,055
We both know you're bad.

713
00:34:33,990 --> 00:34:36,785
I'm sorry, Oliver.
It's a lovely song, really,

714
00:34:36,868 --> 00:34:39,537
but I can't risk Cliff's
first producing…

715
00:34:39,913 --> 00:34:41,039
We're in.

716
00:34:41,122 --> 00:34:42,122
Mom, we are in.

717
00:34:44,042 --> 00:34:46,127
Do you remember what my doctor
told me on my 8th birthday?

718
00:34:46,795 --> 00:34:48,630
That it was time to
stop breastfeeding.

719
00:34:49,339 --> 00:34:51,091
And what did you say?

720
00:34:52,592 --> 00:34:56,012
That you should never give up
on something you love.

721
00:34:56,096 --> 00:34:58,348
You made me believe that, Mom.

722
00:34:58,431 --> 00:35:01,476
I know this is risky,
and I know you've always told me

723
00:35:01,559 --> 00:35:04,521
that my first show would be
the most important one, but…

724
00:35:05,647 --> 00:35:07,774
I love this musical.

725
00:35:07,857 --> 00:35:09,943
I don't wanna give up on it.

726
00:35:15,824 --> 00:35:17,575
BEN
I want you.

727
00:35:17,659 --> 00:35:19,661
I want you so fuckin' bad,

728
00:35:20,787 --> 00:35:22,330
but you're gonna
ruin my career.

729
00:35:25,208 --> 00:35:26,876
And I'm gonna like it.

730
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,211
I'll miss you.

731
00:35:28,294 --> 00:35:30,380
I-I cannot thank you enough.

732
00:35:30,463 --> 00:35:32,507
I'm staying.

733
00:35:34,801 --> 00:35:39,014
You discovered me,
Oliver, and I…

734
00:35:40,098 --> 00:35:42,475
decided I like being found.

735
00:35:44,227 --> 00:35:46,062
Oh, my God, I could kiss you.

736
00:35:57,365 --> 00:35:59,409
- That was so beautiful.
- Thank you, Charles.

737
00:35:59,492 --> 00:36:02,746
I feel so much lighter.
About Ben and this musical.

738
00:36:02,829 --> 00:36:04,122
I-I really feel like
it can work.

739
00:36:04,205 --> 00:36:05,206
Yeah!

740
00:36:05,290 --> 00:36:06,958
Oh, and any time
for that hankie.

741
00:36:07,042 --> 00:36:08,418
Oh.

742
00:36:08,501 --> 00:36:10,378
Yeah, I really wanted
to give you my hankie,

743
00:36:10,462 --> 00:36:13,131
but I must have
thrown it away.

744
00:36:13,214 --> 00:36:15,592
Or donated it to
a good cause.

745
00:37:02,639 --> 00:37:05,308
When a spark
finally catches fire,

746
00:37:05,392 --> 00:37:06,601
and everyone can see it,

747
00:37:06,685 --> 00:37:08,311
then the only place
you wanna be

748
00:37:08,395 --> 00:37:10,689
is at the center
of that fire.

749
00:37:14,901 --> 00:37:16,945
But if one person is shining

750
00:37:17,028 --> 00:37:18,780
a little brighter
than the others,

751
00:37:18,863 --> 00:37:20,448
sometimes you
can't help it.

752
00:37:20,532 --> 00:37:22,325
It's a competitive business.

753
00:37:22,409 --> 00:37:24,285
You may need to
snuff them out.
