And that makes
us have a great house.

Yeah, I'll be 23
back on the found property case

Official YIFY movies site:
YTS.MX

and I'll be 76 to the
Williams Road address

to see if I can find Amber.

Mrs. Stevens, this is Detective Stokes.

She's working on Jared's case.

And you don't think

your husband knew anything about it?

No, he said she had an
accent, British I think.

Is Jared in trouble?

Doubtful, we've ID'd the
guy we think is behind it.

His whereabouts are currently unknown.

Maybe he fled the country.

Have your husband call me if
he has any further information.

Thank you, detective.

Please be
mindful of your surroundings

and keep your electronic
devices secure at all times.

♪ Twinkle, twinkle little star ♪

♪ How I wonder what you are ♪

♪ Up above the world so high ♪

♪ Like a diamond in disguise ♪

Did you just say like
a diamond in disguise?

Yeah, so?

Those aren't the words.

It says like a diamond in the sky.

Yeah, well, I like my way better.

Dress-up and diamonds are the best.

Well, maybe someday we
can buy our own rocket

and fly away into our own sky.

You're such a dreamer.

Molly, it's time to go.

I gotta go.

You shoot for the stars,
I'll shoot for the diamonds.

46 at Concord,
our coolest reading

in Bloom checks in at 36, 45
in Shelby, down in Lancaster

in South Carolina, 46, Chester

fair skies down there.

Nationwide, the southeast extremely warm.

Look at that high today
87, Orlando, Miami 83.

Temperature in Atlanta,
Georgia, Nashville tops out

about 70, Dallas, 70.

Then we go into winter cool
temperatures, 4 degrees.

That's the high
temperature in Minneapolis.

High today in Bismarck,
North Dakota, 6 below zero,

high temp, 20.

Good morning, my ladies.

Morning, Dad.

Good morning, how'd you sleep?

Oh, pretty good.

Really, 'cause you talked
in your sleep all night.

Really?

Well, I did have the strangest dream.

I dreamt that we were kids
again playing dress-up

in the backyard.

You had on your princess dress
and I had on my spacesuit.

Was it the spacesuit?

- Yes, it was.
- Ha!

Wait, do you mean the spacesuit

that Grandma has pictures
of in her living room?

Yeah, that's the one.

I used to wear it everywhere.

Grandma was just telling me
stories about your spacesuit

and she said one time
you didn't take it off

for three days straight.

Yeah, that's until
my dad got tired of it.

He said I was too old
to be playing dress-up

and wearing a spacesuit.

When I refused to take it off,

he picked me up and put me in a bathtub.

Did she tell you that?

What?

Yeah, it ruined it.

I was devastated.

I mean, you know that
spacesuit was the one thing

I can put on and feel like I
could go anywhere, you know?

I could do anything, I could be anyone.

You know, when your mom
found out what happened,

she came over to my house the next day

with a picture she drew of my spacesuit.

She said she didn't want
me to ever forget it.

Aw, that's such a cute story.

Well, he did promise to go
to space and get me a diamond.

Remind me, why space?

Because I used to think the
stars were actually diamonds.

Well, maybe there are.

I mean, there's a whole universe out there

we don't know anything about.

So many stars and each one
has its own role to play.

Oh, don't forget I have
drama club, so pickup is later.

That's right, you get
to hang out with Ms. Dee.

Yeah, she's awesome!

She's always talking about you and mom.

I wish I could go to performing
arts school like y'all did.

Well, maybe you can.

I think you can do anything
you put your mind to, sweetie.

Speaking of performing, I
actually have an audition tonight.

Wanna help me shoot it?

Yeah!

All right, ladies,
I'm off to tackle the world.

Bye.

Pike Entertainment, Joe Pike speaking.

Hey, Joe, it's Jared.

Jared, my man!

It's nice of you to finally call me back.

Yeah, sorry, man.

Work's been really busy lately.

I'm just trying to stay on
top of my family duties.

Listen, I get it.

You cranked out some
really good auditions,

you missed a few.

I'm still submitting you constantly,

but I can't have you
miss auditions like this.

In fact, you have self-tape
auditions due today!

Can I count on you to knock those out?

Yeah, I'm hoping
to after work today.

Have you even looked at the sides?

Not yet, planning to at lunch.

You gotta be prepared
to seize every opportunity

whether minor role or audition.

Auditioning's the work
and you're missing it.

Are you sure you still want this?

Of course, I mean, I don't know.

It's been awhile since I booked anything.

I was kind of thinking of taking a break

and just hanging up my spurs for a bit.

I can stop submitting you if you want,

but I'm gonna be cleaning
up my roster soon.

So I'm gonna need you to
convince me to keep you on it.

Copy that.

Good morning, sunshine.

Did you catch the game last night?

Skiing?

What are you serious?

The game, I was in the box seats
with JP and the whole crew.

We were out I don't even
know how late it was.

I'm surprised I'm even vertical today.

Sounds great, go team!

I'm kind of busy, Myles, what's up?

Word on the street is

that Miranda's got some
big company announcement

this afternoon, you ready?

No, yeah, look, I'm really
swamped trying to catch up

on this report, man.

You want my advice?

Not really.

Too bad, you're gonna get it anyway.

Take a moment.

At lunch, go outside and do
your yoga breathing or whatever.

Get focused, man.

Focused.

Copy that.

This is possibly the
grossest pizza I've ever eaten.

It's cold and rock solid.

Exactly.

Anyways, it's great.

You booked the lead role, Ellie.

I'm in the presence of a star.

May I have your autograph, Ms. Stevens?

You, too, Jordan.

Honestly, it's super crazy
we get to co-star together

and it's my first big role
and I get to do it with you.

Also, how did you learn
how to speak like that?

This accent?

Peter Piper picked a
peck of pickled peppers.

That's so accurate.

Where did you learn that.

Well, we lived in the UK for a stint

while I was in elementary
school, so I just picked it up

and it stuck with me.

That's so cool.

Do you think you could teach me?

The British accent, seriously?

Yeah.

Sure, wanna run lines over lunch?

Yeah, let me just
text my dad real quick.

Well, team, we are on the short list

for the Morgan account.

All right!

This could be the
largest account we land

in our company's history and
it would not have been possible

without each and every
one of you, thank you.

I called this meeting

because I wanna assign
a dedicated project team

to close this deal.

Nice!

I put a lot of thought into
this team and the skill set

that it takes to lead with
the fast approaching timeline.

You are in this room because I am happy

to announce you are the team.

All right!

And your team leaders
will be Myles and Jared.

Awesome!

These two
will lead this transaction

and gentlemen, your lives
are going to change.

Every news outlet in the country

will announce this
transaction, congratulations.

Or every news outlet
will announce we lost it.

Is this a joke?

Excuse me?

You're letting newbie here run the deal?

Are you questioning my management?

No, what I mean...

Back to what I was
saying unless anyone else

in the room would like to
take it upon themselves

to tell me how to run this company.

Thanks for your vote
of confidence, Miranda.

We could not be more ready for this.

Yes, thank you.

Don't thank me, you earned this.

Now, we will meet weekly
to stay on top of progress

and gentlemen, I'm sure you
understand the time commitment

that this will involve.

Congratulations.

Dude, what?

Team leads, are you kidding me?

It's like a dream come true
working with my brother

on the biggest project ever.

Don't let Brooks get in your head, man.

He's an idiot.

"Why me?"

I'll tell you why, 'cause
my brother is awesome!

Hey, let's get some drinks
afterwards, all right?

We'll celebrate.

Sounds good, I just
can't believe it, Myles.

Why me?

I mean, Brooks is a jerk,

but he's been here longer,
man, he's more experienced.

I don't know why you do this.

Why you?

Because you're amazing.

I know it, Miranda knows it.

I don't know why you
sell yourself short, man.

You know what?

I'm not gonna do this
with you, so just stop.

This is your path now.

This is our path now.

God put you right here, right here.

Sorry, dude.

Drinks, yes, but just one.

Mom and Dad and coming over for dinner

and I need to shoot an audition first.

Audition, you're not gonna have time

for that here pretty soon, big guy.

It's gonna feel so good
telling Dad about this.

You know, he's gonna be ecstatic for you,

but he may also be a little jealous.

You know, he had the biggest...

Ah, the biggest deal in the '70s

when the two largest banks merged,

it made his career, made
him the man he is today.

We've heard the story 1,000 times, Myles.

You know, he just
wants what's best for us.

I would give my South Beach
condo just to see his face

when you tell him.

Oh man, it's gonna be great.

Can we grab that drink?

Meet you at Dot's?

Cheers, to the Morgan account.

It's a promotion, bro,

thought you'd be a little more excited.

Yeah, just I'm at a different place

than I thought I'd be, you know?

Well, when opportunity calls,

you gotta be able to take it.

You are destined to be fame and stardom.

This probably seems a little mundane, huh?

That makes sense.

It's a good company.

It's a great company.

That's why I got you the job.

It's a dream career.

It's your dream career,
Myles, it's not mine.

Look, I know that you've only dreamed

of lights, camera, action.

Well, this is kind of like acting, right.

You get to write your own
script, that's the presentation.

You learn your lines,
you perform for the boss.

You've always been a dreamer.

That's one of the things I love about you,

but maybe it's time you get
your head out of the clouds,

time to grow up.

Now you sound like Dad.

That's not a bad thing, man.

You'll excel at this, you
know, make some money.

I know times are tight.

It's not about the money, Myles.

It's about time, you know,
fulfillment, purpose.

Your purpose is provide
fulfillment for your family.

Little Ellie of yours has got your talent.

I'm pretty proud of her.

She's gonna be a great actress.

Oh shoot!

Dude, I'm just saying.

No, I'm late to pick
her up from drama club.

Head in the clouds, brother!

Well, Bobby, I guess I
am drinking both of them.

Do you know what was
going on with Connor today?

I don't know, he could
not get his lines right.

It was exhausting trying to work with him.

Yeah, hopefully it'll get better.

Yeah, it better.

You don't think it
was Ms. Donovan, do you?

No, she usually has
it more together than that.

Yeah.

Anyways, do you wanna
come over, hang out?

We could order pizza or
rehearse, watch a movie.

My parents aren't getting home till late

because they have some
event at the country club.

I would love to, but I have
dinner with my grandparents

and I have to help my
dad with an audition.

That sounds awesome.

I cannot tell you the
last time I've sat down

to have dinner with my family.

Anyways, I'll probably
end up ordering pizza

and watch a movie by myself,

of course, using my parent's credit card.

Are you sure you don't need a ride home?

My dad should be here soon.

I don't know where he is, though, I guess.

No, it's fine, but I'll
wait until he gets here.

I can wait here with Jordan
if you wanna get going.

It's okay, sorry that he's late.

I texted with him earlier
today, but I guess he forgot.

No worries, I'm fine waiting
with her until he gets here.

You know, he was always
late in college, too.

You went to
school with Ellie's dad?

Yeah, you knew this.

You never told me.

Yes, I did.

Whatever.

Okay, I'm just gonna call him again.

Hey, sorry I'm late.

Well, not much has changed, huh?

Just kidding, no, I love
waiting here with the girls.

It's fine.
Bye, Ms. Donovan.

Plus Todd knows I never
leave this place on time.

He's used to it.

Sorry I was late.

Oh, wait.

How is work for you?

Well, actually going pretty good

and I'm thankful for that.

Does it leave you any time for acting?

Not much if I'm gonna be honest.

You know your girl, she is amazing.

She is one of the most authentic
actresses we've had here

in years, she is.

She's really gifted.

Wow, thanks, Amy.

Ellie loves it and I
think she's pretty amazing

if I do say so myself.

I figure if I can't make
it in this industry,

I'll do everything I can to help her.

Jared, all right, everything
that is created begins

within the mind, remember that?

You've already made it, you just have

to think whatever truly
makes you happy to think.

This is why we've been
friends for all these years.

I think I might start crashing
your coffee days with Molly.

Well, come join us anytime.

I love that the two of you
still make time to hang out.

She always looks forward
to her coffee days.

That is the highlight of my week.

We love complaining about our husbands.

Dad, we need to go.

Coming.

Look, you're gonna get a earful

about me being late for dinner tonight,

so just do me a favor and take the blame.

Will do.

I refuse to stand by
and watch this happen.

I'm done sacrificing my
integrity for you or anyone else.

Do I make myself clear?

Do I make myself clear?

Cut.

Whew!

Nice job, Dad, you still got it.

Yeah, I never felt
confident with my auditions

and my slate always
seemed so goofy, you know?

I just hope I can juggle it.

How do you do it?

One step at a time, one role at a time

and having good people around you.

You know I couldn't do any
of this without your mom.

She is pretty awesome.

Yeah, she is pretty and awesome.

She's always been my greatest encourager.

I wanna be like you both.

I mean, I love acting, but it seems like

Mom had some pretty important
roles backstage, too.

I just hope I can get
into the drama program

when I'm in college.

I know it can be pretty expensive.

Now, don't you worry about that, kiddo.

The universe has a way of
working these things out

and your mom and I are behind
you every step of the way.

Some of my friends'
parents aren't as accepting.

Hm, I know how that is.

It can definitely make the
journey a lot more challenging,

but just like a scene in acting,
you look at your objective

and you find tactics and strategies

to work around your obstacles.

And always stay true to yourself.

What do you mean?

Authenticity, if you deny the
real you in order to pretend

just so you can fit in, you
end up frustrating yourself

and disappointing those around you.

Always be your authentic
self, no matter what

because you are the greatest gift

you can give those around you.

Molly, this is delicious.

Thank you so much for
making this lovely meal.

Of course, my pleasure.

So son, Myles tells me
you have some big news?

Of course he told you, Dad.

I actually got a promotion at work.

That's fantastic, son!

Oh, that's wonderful news.

Tell us more.

Well, actually, Myles
and I both have been chosen

to lead the team that
is in charge of trying

to land the largest acquisition
in our company's history.

Wow, like father, like son.

Very good.

It's exciting and
I'm extremely grateful.

But actually, Ellie has some news

she'd like to share as well.

Well, I got the lead in the school play

and I would love for
you guys to come see it.

Good job, Ellie.

Jared, that promotion means
that you're in line now

to be a partner in the firm.

Possibly, Dad, but we're really proud

of what Ellie has going on.

I mean, she's worked so hard

and she's shown such dedication.

We're really proud of her.

Ellie, dear, that is wonderful.

Hobbies are good, but you
have to know the difference

between a hobby and a career.

Just be sure you keep up at school.

How are your grades?

Ellie is a straight A student

and we are very proud of her for that.

But what makes her most
outstanding is her passion,

love for life and seeing the
world through Ellie's lens.

And in this house, we teach career

and life is a road you enjoy traveling,

even if it's a less traveled one.

But you have to make
a living if you travel.

Lord knows it took Jared a
long time to figure that out.

Proud of you, son.

Hey.

Your mom was so sweet to help
clean up before they left.

And Ellie says she's going to bed early.

She is happily exhausted from
all the drama club excitement.

You doing okay?

At what point do you think he'll realize

that maybe I won't grow up,

you know, that this is
the real me all grown up?

He's not a bad father.

He successfully loved my
mom, he took care of us.

He just wasn't...

Present.

Yeah.

My biggest fear is that
I'd be just like him,

you know, that some job would
keep me so busy, take me away.

Something else would keep my attention

so I couldn't connect.

You are a great dad
and a wonderful husband.

It's just your dad, he's
from a different generation.

Even when we were kids,

I can remember him planning
out every detail of your life

and at the time being sort of jealous.

Forgive me, I sound so spoiled.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be insensitive

to your situation.

No worries, babe.

Plus, I got to connect with
you best on and off stage.

But you were a good actress, too.

Thank you.

But you know I really liked tech crew,

being behind the scenes, backstage,

coordinating the wardrobe,
helping with casting.

That's really where I found my place.

And from there, that's where
I saw you find your place.

You were so good at improv,

moving from one unanticipated
moment to the next,

being present and authentic,

no matter what role you were in.

It's what I loved about you.

It's what I still love about you.

No matter if you're on stage
or in real life, you just...

You continue to live
truthfully in any circumstance.

Time to come inside, son.

Dinner's ready.

After dinner, you have homework, okay?

Middle school's no joke.

You're getting older now.

Don't you think it's time
to stop playing around

and give up on this make-believe?

Go get your things.

Take off that ridiculous costume, okay?

Sorry, I guess I'll have
to save you another day.

I'll be waiting.

Son, let's go!

Dinner's getting cold.

Hey, Jared?

Never give up on make-believe.

Hey, I need to get going.

Something wrong?

Miranda called a meeting first thing,

I just need to be sure I'm not late.

Well, remember we're down
to one car and I need it.

Is that gonna mess you up?

No, I just need to leave now.

I'll take the train.

Oh, then who's gonna take me to school?

I'll take you.

And remember it's a late night tonight.

It's my last week of rehearsals.

All right, break a leg,
my little movie star.

Shine like a diamond.

Nothing less.

Mom, I hate seeing Dad so stressed.

Your dad is a man of many talents.

Yeah, he's a little bit more stressed,

but he loves the chaos life throws at him.

He'll be okay.

One day when I make it big,

he's gonna be the star in my production.

He would like that.

Ellie, but remember your
dad's favorite thing

in this entire world is his family.

He will do anything to
provide and make us happy.

And one day a door will open,

even if it takes a little push.

What does that mean, Mom?

Always stand behind

the white textured running strips.

You look like you have
the weight of the world

on your shoulders.

Yeah.

Sorry for the imposition,

I just couldn't help but notice it.

No worries.

You a therapist or something?

Yeah, something like that.

More like a student, an observer of people

'cause I get around.

I like to meet and make
new friends, you know.

Find that having a chat with a stranger

is sometimes more beneficial
than having a chat

with someone you know.

Tell me about it.

So many conversations lately,
I feel like no one gets it.

No one gets me.

Gets what?

That you're a middle-aged
man doing the best he can

for his family and while also
wanting more for himself,

but second guessing all life decisions?

Is it that obvious?

Like I said, I get around.

Are you happy?

Yeah, relatively speaking, yeah.

I have a great family, wife, daughter.

Just feel aimless at times.

I mean, I have options and
opportunities, I just...

They're just not the ones I
thought I'd have at this age.

Choppy seas.

What's that?

Choppy seas, you know,
getting tossed to and fro

in the waves of life.

Just remember it's in those seas

that you find out what you value most

and you cling to what's
most important to you.

It's your anchor, you know.

Can I ask you a question?

If you could do anything in life

and know that you wouldn't
fail, what would you do?

I don't know.

See, that's what you need to figure out.

Be bold, what's the
worst that could happen?

I lose my job, lose
my family, lose my life.

And what's the best that can happen?

I gain everything.

Is it really that easy to figure me out?

It's normal, man.

You're human.

Just remember you are a human
being, not a human doing.

Life's not about what you do or we do.

It's about, I don't know,

it's about who you are,
it's who you're becoming.

I just never thought
I'd be this ordinary.

I mean, what's wrong with that?

I mean, you don't have to
do anything spectacular

to make your mark on this world.

You don't have to be
outstanding in your field

in order to find fulfillment.

What's that supposed to mean?

Means maybe you shouldn't
neglect the present

by looking beyond what you've
been given here and now,

that maybe living a life of wonder

isn't about doing spectacular
things, but living each day

in wonderment and passing
that on to your kids.

I mean, you do that

and maybe your ordinary
life will be spectacular.

Train to
High Grain Park arriving

in five minutes.

Aren't you getting on?

I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.

You're the one who needs to
figure out where you're going.

Thank you for waiting with Ellie.

Jared's just been a bit off, so...

Yeah, he seemed kind of stressed.

He didn't really talk about it, though.

Okay, I know I say this all
the time, but Ellie is amazing!

Her talent is incredible
and you and Jared,

you should really think about putting her

into a special school or
at least like an agency.

She is amazing, but we can't afford it.

You sure?

Up until Myles got Jared this job,

I thought we were gonna lose the house.

Oh, Molly.

You cannot tell anyone that.

Of course not.

Jared would be so mad at me.

To think I could just quit
my job, stay home with Ellie,

help Jared pursue his dreams
and it all work out, so stupid.

Okay, the best thing that you ever did

was put Ellie first.

She is a spectacular young lady.

You should not feel guilty about that.

Yeah, but Jared now has to
take this stupid corporate job

and give up on his dreams.

And it is my fault.

I'm just scared he's
gonna resent me for it.

Molly, Jared loves you

and the last thing he's
ever gonna do is resent you.

In fact, he told Todd that you're the one

that gave up your dreams
to put your family first.

He said that?

Yes, many times to Todd.

You are an amazing wife and mother.

Well, team, you've done it again.

We are this close.

The last step will be our trip to New York

where we will talk through
all the final details

and hopefully sign on that dotted line.

We've only got 48 hours to
get everything prepared,

so I will need you to stay
here until everything is done.

When do you anticipate
we'll be needed in New York?

Thursday morning with meetings
all day Thursday and Friday

and a possible onsite meeting on Saturday.

Oh, I...

Is there a problem, Jared?

It's just that it's my
daughter's play this weekend

and I really...

It won't be a problem, Miranda.

It'll be fine.

Okay, well, let's break for an hour

and then meet back here to get started.

I will take care of lunch and dinner.

Thank you, team.

This is our time.

What in the world, dude?

Ellie's play is this weekend, man.

She'll be devastated if I'm not there.

I know the play is
important and that sucks,

but this is your chance.

We get this deal, you
have financial freedom.

You can send her to drama
school, she can have it all.

I know, I know, I just can't
bear the look on her face

if I'm not there, man.

Jared, where are you going?

She said we have an hour.

I need a minute to think.

Hey, Jared, can
I talk to you for a second?

Sure.

I wanted to check in with you

because I noticed some
hesitation back there.

I can't have anyone on the
team who is not fully committed

to what it takes to close this deal.

There are plenty of people in this office

who are in line for your position.

Sorry, it's just that

it's my daughter's play this weekend.

I was really hoping to make it

and I didn't want the meetings

to conflict with the schedule.

I can't promise you that, Jared.

I wish I could, but I can't.

I've missed plenty of family events

and well, my family, they
understand when I pay

for all of our family trips
and ivy league school.

Children understand, Jared.

But do they?

I don't remember my father at anything.

Your dad is one of the
most accomplished men

in this industry and frankly,
I see him as a mentor.

When he retired, I vowed
to be as good as him.

He's one of the reasons that
I chose you for this project.

Now, if you can't fulfill
your duties, I understand,

but I need to know now, Jared.

I'm not gonna beg you to do this.

Okay.

I'm the man for the job.

Okay.

Thank you for the opportunity.

How are you and Todd?

Fine, you know, once he figured out

that that business wasn't
gonna sell for him anyway,

he got over it.

I feel like it was a little
bit more of a blow to his ego

than really our bank
account, so we'll move on.

We shall prevail.

I'm so sorry sitting here complaining

and you have enough on your plate.

It's fine, really.

Well, Jared and I will
never ever, ever do business

with those people again.

Good, that's why I love you, Molly.

Oh, it's Jared, let me catch this.

Go ahead.

Hey, babe, what's up?

Hi, sweetheart.

Looks like it's gonna
be another late night.

Again, I am so sorry.

I was hoping this wouldn't happen.

Yeah, Myles seems to
think it's a dream job.

I don't even know what
my dreams are anymore.

Well, your dreams are my dreams, honey.

Just do what you gotta do
until we figure this out, okay?

Thanks, love.

I don't know what I'd do without you.

I'm just doing my part.

Now you go do yours.

Come on, man, we're waiting on you.

Be right there.

Hello?

Hello, Jared.

Yes?

We've received your submission.

What submission?

Who is this?

It's a rush call
for an action-packed scene.

Let's just say I'm a
freelance talent scout

who works with numerous casting directors.

We've seen your demo reel.

With your experience, we
think you'd be perfect

to improv with the other actors.

It's a great featured shot, a
real opportunity for exposure.

The first AD, Chas, will
fill you in at the details.

Just meet at our studios
off of Green Street

and Simon Avenue.

The old West Hills district?

How will I know which one's yours?

You'll know our
studio when you see it.

Chas will be expecting you at 5 PM.

An hour?

I don't think I can get there in an hour.

I got work to do.

Like I said, it's a rush call.

We're on a tight schedule.

Break a leg, Mr. Stevens.

Jared, where are you going?

Jared!

Hello, no one is
available to take your call.

Please leave a message after the tone.

Molly, hey look, I don't have much time,

but I just got a call
from a casting agent.

I got booked on a role.

I don't really know which one.

She sounded British or something.

The phone call was super rushed.

It actually starts tonight.

I'm on my way there now.

These are your dreams, too, babe.

I gotta go.

Wish me luck.

Hello?

Hi, I'm Jared Stevens.

I got a call saying to report here.

Are you the lady that called me?

Okay.

New to the movie industry or something?

Yeah, can you tell?

Yeah, you're the last one here.

It's just now 5 o'clock.

Yeah, but when you're
late, you're a no show.

You're on time, that means you're late.

But of course, when you're
early, then you're on time.

I see.

What's your deal, day job?

I did some acting in college.

I just thought I would get back into it.

Reliving the glory days, huh?

Something like that.

Is that the lady that called me?

Don't know, she hasn't said
a word to me since I got here.

I think she's dating the
director or something.

Hi, I'm Hannah.

Jared.

Do you know anything about this film

or this production company?

No, I'm kind of new to the city.

I'm working on my master's in film school.

Someone in class told me
about this opportunity,

so of course I jumped at the chance.

Resume-building and all that.

No, it's not what you think.

It's movie-making, kid.

You'll see.

So will you, father figure.

It's nice that you're
still into acting and all,

that you didn't give up,
sell out, move to the 'burbs.

Well, I am a suburbanite.

Oh.

It's cool, Hannah, full of adventure.

Your wife lets you do this?

Lets me, yeah, she
encourages me to do it.

We were both in the theater
department in college.

We loved it, but then we got
married and everything changed.

But did it?

Got kids?

Yeah, a daughter, teenager.

Ooh.

Yeah, she's actually an actress, too.

In fact, she should probably
be here instead of me.

Wish my dad could
understand the creative life.

What, he's not supportive?

No, no, not in the least.

Business school, fully paid
for by my proud father.

Film school, though,
not a real profession.

"We can't financially encourage that."

So of course I jumped at the
chance for a paid acting gig.

My dad was the same way.

And actually that's my biggest fear,

you know, is turning
into him, being like him,

not encouraging my
daughter, letting her down.

I bet you're a cool dad.

And I'm sure you're gonna
crush your role today,

so break a leg.

Thanks, you too.

Never give up chasing your dreams, Hannah.

Good evening, everyone.

I'm Chas, the first AD for this project.

Glad you all could book with us.

We're shooting a short
action sequence for the film,

however depending on your improv skills,

your performance may land you a major part

in the next production.

So this is like a rush call audition...

Hey, midlife crisis, stop
flirting with the talent.

Sorry, I was...

No time.

Look, all I can say is that
this is a groundbreaking concept

and the payoff can be huge.

You won't regret being here.

Everyone has a role to play.

What will your part be?

We need to get to set.

I'll explain more on the way, follow me.

The scene that we're shooting
tonight is a diamond heist.

The director, the actors

and the background talent
are already on set.

Everyone has a role to
play, just play your part

and roll with the rest.

There'll be numerous
mounted cameras on set.

This may go without saying,
don't look at the cameras.

Here are your weapons.

Try not to use it.

Rubber pistols?

Safety third.

So what exactly do we do?

Terrence will take the
lead, the rest is up to you.

What are you doing?

Figured it's a heist,

shouldn't we wear a mask or something?

True acting isn't about wearing masks,

it's about removing them.

Hey, Jess, we're five
minutes away, get ready.

And action!

Follow me.

No, not at all.

Ladies and gentlemen, nobody move.

Well, not even a hello?

Tell me to whom we have
the honor of meeting.

We're here for the diamonds.

Humph, of course you are.

Well...

Jess, cover the door.

9 to 5, you cover the guests.

College girl, get the diamonds.

Those are some crazy special effects.

That sounds like live ammo.

Rubber pistols?

Did you even see any cameras?

I've got a bad feeling about this.

Go!

Here, here, here, take
the necklace, I'll catch up.

Hannah, I don't think that
guy's gun's made out of rubber.

Wow, you're really selling this.

Use that fear, yes!

We've gotta get out of here, come on.

Go, go, go, go, I'll catch up, go!

Don't you think it's
time to stop playing around

and give up on this make-believe?

Well, maybe someday
we can buy our own rocket,

fly away into our own sky.

Ladies and gentlemen,
we're here for the diamonds.

This is a groundbreaking concept

and the payoff can be huge.

Your purpose is to provide
fulfillment for your family.

That's a wrap on Jared.

Where am I?

You're at the hospital, sweetie.

Sounds like you had quite
the adventure, Mr. Stevens.

You were shot in the leg,
but it's a minor flesh wound.

You're very lucky.

I must say I'm more concerned

about the concussion you
sustained from the fall.

But rest easy, we'll take
very good care of you.

Could I speak to you for a moment?

Mrs. Stevens, this is Detective Stokes.

She's working on Jared's case.

I saw on the news about this heist.

And you don't think your
husband knew anything about it.

No, he got a phone
call that he was booked

on an action film or something.

He just assumed it was a
indie project associated

with the film school.

He was so excited because
we moved here for him

to pursue acting and he's
been super stressed at work.

Did he ever get a name of who called?

No, he said she had an
accent, British I think.

Well, this director plays on the dreams

of eager young actors.

He booked for mock action scenes

that actually turned out
to be real robberies.

They made off with millions
of dollars worth of diamonds.

Is Jared in trouble?

No, from what we can tell,

he had absolutely no
knowledge of the scheme.

Like all the other actors, he
was just a pawn in the game.

Thankfully he's okay 'cause
it could've been worse.

Is he in danger?

Doubtful, we've ID'd the
guy we think is behind it.

He's a disgruntled college
professor named Chas Lawrence.

Poor guy had a nervous
breakdown a few years back.

He lost his job, lost his wife

after a fling with a British film student.

I guess he thought this was his comeback.

Did you catch him?

His whereabouts are currently unknown.

Maybe he fled the country.

You never can tell with this guy.

Even before the nervous
breakdown, he was an oddball,

flighty, a bit off the grid.

And the diamonds?

We believe they're with Chas.

Have your husband call me if
he has any further information.

Thank you, detective.

We'll be in touch.

The test results came back

and his leg is healing quite nicely.

He did lose some blood,

but there's been no significant damage.

So sit tight and we'll
have you out of here

before you know it.

And if you need anything at all,

please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you.
Mm-hm.

How could I have been so naive?

I let my ambitions get the better of me.

Don't worry, sweetie,

you were doing what you thought was right.

We're behind you cheering you on.

What happened to the others?

Well, like you, they were
all ambitious actors eager

to get a shot onscreen.

Unfortunately, you were
all duped by a con artist.

Thankfully, no one was badly hurt.

Was it that Chas guy?

Apparently,
he's nowhere to be found.

Where's Ellie?

Myles took her for ice
cream after rehearsals today.

And the good news is the doctor says

you're gonna be all healed up

and out in time for her
opening night this weekend.

I got you something.

I got you these.

I love you.

Molly, is this some sort of joke?

You need to answer that call.

Hello?

Hello, Jared.

Congratulations on your booking.

Keep up the good work.

Remember, everyone has a role to play.
