You wrote this adaptation? 181 00:13:31,363 --> 00:13:32,573 I did, yeah. 182 00:13:32,614 --> 00:13:35,824 And you're directing and starring. That's ambitious. 183 00:13:36,284 --> 00:13:37,284 Well, thanks. 184 00:13:37,702 --> 00:13:39,872 Well, it's a good theater. 185 00:13:40,705 --> 00:13:44,085 I can't speak for your play, but... Let's do a little bit of it. 186 00:13:44,501 --> 00:13:46,631 Oh, I didn't expect you to just jump right in. 187 00:13:46,670 --> 00:13:49,300 It's first preview tomorrow night. Let's get to work. 188 00:13:49,631 --> 00:13:53,421 Well, feel free to take the script up until you feel comfortable. 189 00:13:53,718 --> 00:13:56,088 No, let's just do some of it. 190 00:13:58,598 --> 00:13:59,758 Take a look at page 20. 191 00:14:00,058 --> 00:14:01,678 I'm good. I don't need it. 192 00:14:01,768 --> 00:14:04,268 - I don't need the script. Give me a cue. - What? 193 00:14:04,604 --> 00:14:06,194 Feed me a line. 194 00:14:06,481 --> 00:14:08,651 - Feed me a line. - Okay. 195 00:14:09,067 --> 00:14:11,287 Okay, let me think. 196 00:14:13,697 --> 00:14:16,577 I'm the wrong person to ask. I didn't actually know him. 197 00:14:16,700 --> 00:14:18,740 I only heard his name mentioned in passing. 198 00:14:18,910 --> 00:14:20,700 You'd have to know the particulars. 199 00:14:20,829 --> 00:14:23,909 But I think what you're saying is love is absolute. 200 00:14:24,708 --> 00:14:27,708 Is that what I'm saying? Am I saying love is absolute? 201 00:14:28,336 --> 00:14:31,716 Yes. Okay, yeah! The kind of love I'm talking about is absolute. 202 00:14:32,132 --> 00:14:35,722 The kind of love I'm talking about, you don't try to kill people! 203 00:14:36,052 --> 00:14:37,892 How do you know the lines? 204 00:14:38,346 --> 00:14:40,896 It's a thing I have. I don't know, it's a gift. 205 00:14:42,309 --> 00:14:45,309 Come on. I've been helping Lesley get off book for a month. 206 00:14:45,645 --> 00:14:47,905 - These lines are right here. - That makes sense. 207 00:14:48,315 --> 00:14:49,815 That's good. Give me my cue again. 208 00:14:50,108 --> 00:14:52,728 I'm the wrong person to ask. I didn't actually know him. 209 00:14:52,819 --> 00:14:55,739 I only heard his name mentioned in passing. 210 00:14:55,822 --> 00:14:58,322 You never know the particulars. I think what... 211 00:14:58,700 --> 00:15:02,160 - can I make a suggestion? Do you mind? - No, not at all. 212 00:15:02,579 --> 00:15:05,959 No, no, forget that. Just stay with me. 213 00:15:06,374 --> 00:15:09,964 "I'm the wrong person to ask," he says, but what's the intention? 214 00:15:10,295 --> 00:15:13,885 Is he fed up with the subject? Deflecting guilt over the marriage? 215 00:15:14,174 --> 00:15:16,474 And here's the thing... you have four lines after that 216 00:15:16,551 --> 00:15:19,181 that all say the same thing. "I didn't know him." 217 00:15:19,596 --> 00:15:22,936 "I only heard his name mentioned in passing." "I wouldn't know." 218 00:15:23,266 --> 00:15:26,856 "You'd have to know the particulars." "Particulars" sounds like my grandmother. 219 00:15:27,145 --> 00:15:30,735 The point is, you don't know the guy. We fucking get it. 220 00:15:31,149 --> 00:15:34,779 Make it work with one line. "I didn't even know the man." Right? 221 00:15:34,944 --> 00:15:37,744 Wait... you know my lines, too? 222 00:15:38,156 --> 00:15:42,586 Can we not get hung up on knowing lines? Can we just work on this? Tear it apart? 223 00:15:42,952 --> 00:15:47,332 So why don't you just give me that same thing again, but cut it down. Try it. 224 00:15:47,624 --> 00:15:48,824 I'm the wrong person to ask... 225 00:15:49,125 --> 00:15:53,135 oh, no! That's the thing... "I'm the wrong person to ask." I think it's, "fuck you." 226 00:15:53,421 --> 00:15:55,841 "Fuck you. Don't put me on the spot." 227 00:15:55,924 --> 00:16:00,974 "Don't make me feel self-conscious about my marriage while my wife is sitting..." 228 00:16:01,012 --> 00:16:02,852 - Right there. - "...Right there." 229 00:16:03,014 --> 00:16:05,394 - Can I sit down for this? - Yeah, sit. Good idea. 230 00:16:05,809 --> 00:16:09,189 So just give it to me as a "fuck you." Lay it on me. 231 00:16:09,604 --> 00:16:10,774 Just do it. Give it to me. 232 00:16:11,106 --> 00:16:13,526 - Well, I'm thinking. - Fuck me hard. Just give it. 233 00:16:13,817 --> 00:16:14,827 Come on! Just do it! 234 00:16:14,901 --> 00:16:18,901 Hey, I'm the wrong person to ask! I don't even know him. What's your point?! 235 00:16:19,197 --> 00:16:22,407 - What's my point? - Yeah, what are you saying? Spit it out! 236 00:16:22,784 --> 00:16:25,874 You're saying what? You're saying love is absolute. 237 00:16:25,954 --> 00:16:30,794 Yes! Yes! The kind of love that I'm talking about, it is absolute! 238 00:16:30,834 --> 00:16:33,884 The kind of love that I'm talking about, you don't... 239 00:16:34,838 --> 00:16:37,248 ...you don't try to kill people. 240 00:16:40,885 --> 00:16:42,055 Yeah. Good. 241 00:16:42,470 --> 00:16:46,640 I don't know... what do you think, boss? You want to do this with me? 242 00:16:47,017 --> 00:16:48,437 What do you think? 243 00:16:48,768 --> 00:16:51,348 Everybody's back. Larry needs to see him for a fitting. 244 00:16:51,938 --> 00:16:53,848 I'll take that as a yes. 245 00:16:56,818 --> 00:16:58,228 So, who are you? 246 00:16:58,570 --> 00:17:00,030 That's Sam, my daughter. 247 00:17:00,822 --> 00:17:04,822 That's amazing. You don't look anything like each other. What do you do? 248 00:17:05,285 --> 00:17:07,495 She's my assistant. Works with me. 249 00:17:10,915 --> 00:17:15,925 She does. Yeah.
