Original subtitles

Previously on "The Arrangement"...

I really think we should do something with this.

That side of yourself is fearless,

and I find that very attractive.

I have to go somehow convince McPherson not to sell

the story Kyle's been dying to direct.

What if you don't?

But my God! I get to meet Charlotte Banks!

- Yes! - And her producing partner

saw me in the play,

and now I'm gonna be reading with her.

- That's amazing. - My God!

She's getting totally sucked in and it needs to stop,

and that was the whole point of the photos.

What? You're the one who leaked the photos?

Kyle West is really just a product

of the Institute of the Higher Mind.

This is sick, Hope.

I've taken the workshop myself.

- What? - Terence, this is Shaun.

- Megan's friend. - Yeah.

How hard did you fight for me?

How hard did you try to make a different deal with her?

Don't come near me again.

So all the data for the system goes where?

- Put on some server operated by you? - Correct.

Okay, and how secure is that?

Well, if you're asking if our servers can be hacked,

it's virtually impossible.

Virtually?

Look, I'll be honest with you.

We can give you the best security system in the world,

and we will, but if someone is just hell-bent

on getting past it to invade your privacy,

they'll find a way.

What are we doing this for?

It's a very effective deterrent.

How many stalkers have you had, Mr. West?

Three... ish.

You need to do something.

Hey, how's it going?

Quinn was just,

walking me through how this whole thing works.

It's crazy that somebody got in here.

It's really disturbing.

Well, we're installing motion-detector lights,

there's sensors on the doors and windows,

and we've got internal-external cameras,

carbon monoxide alarms...

Security cameras inside the house?

Well, if there's a break-in, you want to know

exactly where the intruder is.

Right, but isn't the point of all this other stuff

to prevent the break-ins in the first place?

Sorry, obviously, I want to do everything we can.

It's just the idea of cameras makes me feel like

I'm gonna end up on a sex tape somewhere.

No interior cameras.

Okay.

Thank you.

Okay, I'm off to set.

Zach told me that he's the only one who checked her references.

This doesn't make you nervous?

It seems to make you nervous.

Okay, what is going on with you?

Kyle's house was broken into.

Now there's some woman that we don't know

installing a new security system?

Why are you not all over this?

Kyle and I made a mutual decision to take

a step back from each other.

Okay, what happened? Tell me.

So you can distance yourself from the fray?

No.

So I can navigate what I'm sure is an emotional minefield.

He's been wanting independence. I'm respecting that.

What else happened?

The rest is between him and me.

Look, my job is a lot easier when he has a clear head,

and this lovers' quarrel that's between the two of you

does not help me right now.

Well, I'm sorry about that.

Does this conscious uncoupling extend to the Institute as well?

Look, DeAnn, the sky is not falling, okay?

I've got plenty of things to catch up on

until Kyle finds his way back, which he will

as soon as he realizes that he is not built to do this alone.

- Hello. - There she is.

- Hello, my love. - Hey, Charlotte.

Did you get some rest?

I laid down while I read the sides 100 times.

Does that count?

I might be a little excited.

Well, so am I.

An actor's life for me, thank you very much.

Hi-diddle-ee-dee.

Pinocchio?

"Hi-diddle-ee-dee, an actor's life for me"?

Or not.

Megan.

- Lucas. Hi. First AD. - Hey, Lucas.

- New pages for today. - New pages?

Reflecting last night's changes.

40 minutes, yeah?

Thanks.

All of the lines are different.

It's a completely different scene.

Did you just get this too?

An hour ago.

You learn to work fast in television.

No, I just put in a lot of work in the other version.

Well, we'll find the moments as we go along.

Just focus on learning the lines.

Okay.

And I will have a word with Patrick.

- Patrick? - The showrunner.

No, it's okay. I'll be fine.

No, it's not okay. You can't treat your actors

like glorified props.

You think he'd try this shit with Jeff Daniels?

He'd get his ass handed to him.

So have you given my weekend idea any thought?

I like the idea...

I just think that time-wise,

I'm not ready for another seminar.

The Anatomy of Leadership,

I thought you... that you would jump at that.

You're certainly qualified.

It's just hard to integrate into my actual life.

My friends are resistant,

and the firm is a meat grinder.

There isn't a lot of solid ground to build my column.

So you want a guarantee before you make a commitment?

No. I didn't say guarantee.

Well, what's your word then?

The work only works for you if you extend it

to the other people in your life.

You can't let an unfriendly room get in the way.

Frame composition and camera movement.

Don't tell me you used to be a director.

No. Just a lot of my clients.

Balance your frame.

Unless you're following an unstable character,

in which case it's a great rule to break.

- Speaking of which... - Sorry.

Just a heads up, it's quarter till.

Thanks, Zach.

Look, I know you don't want to live in a fortress.

Plenty of my clients feel the same way.

And I know you want to make your girlfriend happy,

which is usually a good way to go,

but I've reread those police reports,

and this stalker of yours is not exactly garden-variety.

I know.

Your old security system is old,

but it's not flimsy.

Whoever this person is, they took the trouble to disarm it

and then didn't steal anything, which tells me

the ultimate target was you.

Or it was about intimidation and fear.

So whoever did this draws the line at vandalism.

Is that what you're holding on to?

What do you think would've happened if you'd been there?

Or your girlfriend?

Look, if you're not gonna install cameras,

I think you should consider this.

I'm assuming you had weapons training for your movies.

Sure, but a gun in the house?

Loaded with live ammo?

I don't know.

Gives you a fighting chance if this person somehow comes back.

You don't have enough protection without it.

And I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't tell you that.

Okay, everybody. Last looks.

- Hey, Megan? - Yeah.

- I'm Patrick, the showrunner. - Hey. How's it going?

Good, good. Just, um,

seeing how you're feeling about the lines.

I know you're learning them on short notice, so...

Yeah, um...

pretty good, I guess.

Okay, well, we've got a couple of options here

to give you some relief.

What kind of relief?

Okay, well, option one would be cue cards.

- Are you serious? - Absolutely.

Lucas can hold them right by camera,

and you could go to them between takes

when we'll be cutting away from you anyway.

Okay, and what's the other option?

We give you this earpiece. We would just

cover it with your hair...

And then cheat you away from camera, so they can...

Wait, guys. Slow down.

Everybody just take a breath.

Let me take Megan for a little walk.

She's cuffed to a chair.

Then leave so we can talk.

I'm turning off your mic.

Do not take the cue cards

or that ridiculous earpiece.

They tell you they want to help you,

but the next thing you know, you've got a reputation

as a girl who can't learn her lines.

You're better than that, and you're way better off

doing this on your own.

He loved me.

I don't know why you don't believe that.

Maybe you've never been loved.

Maybe that's why.

We found your blood on the toe of his boot.

What kind of love is that?

Tell me.

And cut!

Okay, let's un-cuff Megan and we are turning around.

My gosh. She's his girlfriend?

- Dude, it's Kyle West. - But you're here.

I thought that was one of those movies

that's an excuse to tour Europe.

Croatia and Monaco eventually.

We start in L.A.

It gives me a chance to watch this one.

- Hey, you. - Hey.

Hi.

This one is a major talent.

Keep her close.

She's being nice.

They changed all of today's scenes last night,

and I don't know what the hell I was doing.

Whoa. Whoa, Megan.

Nobody's saying that, okay?

You totally got through it.

I grew up idolizing her.

I wanna do more than just get through it.

Look, I'm sorry to ask you this right now, but...

were you planning on going to your house after this?

Yeah, why?

Can you come to mine instead?

I don't like the idea of you going alone to that rental

- with absolutely no security at all. - Kyle...

Megan, now look, there is some crazy asshole out there

who at minimum wants to scare the shit out of me,

and he very easily could come after you too.

I want you to move in with me.

Permanently.

My house is the safest place for both of us.

My God.

I'm trying to work, and I'm doing my best

not to freak out right now,

but you're making it really hard.

Megan, can we get you back on set, please?

Yes. Absolutely. Right now.

Hey, how's it going?

Hey. How you doing?

There's been far too much concern

about potential negative imagery and... and celebrity clientele,

and not enough focus on what we actually have to offer here.

We... we have an incredible, progressive system

for personal development,

and we need to make our presence felt.

The work deserves it.

And the world deserves the work.

So you'll talk with the facilitators?

This should be our approach across the board from now on.

Yeah, I will.

Maybe they'll have better luck than I have.

What does that mean?

Shaun has tapered off.

Yeah, I noticed.

I keep trying to bring her to the next level,

but she says she's not ready.

Not ready for what, the next level with IHM or with you?

Maybe both.

Yeah, probably not both.

Incoming, boys!

Watch my six!

We got a man down! Get somebody over there now!

Fall back!

And cut it! Good!

Great, guys. Moving on.

Nice take, guys.

Hello, love.

Hey.

How's the house? How are you holding up?

The house is great.

Got it all cleaned up, kick-ass new security system.

- That's fantastic. - Yeah.

Well, I have some news you're not gonna love,

but if we take a breath,

we'll see that there's a real silver lining here.

Okay.

We no longer have the rights to "The Resistance."

Rand didn't extend the option.

What?

Yeah, I was blindsided too.

The extension should have been pro forma,

and the rights have been sold to Premiere.

For who?

If you tell me Jeremy Renner, I'm gonna lose my shit.

Then I won't tell you.

Son of a bitch.

Is this an Adam Westfeldt move?

Look, I don't know what Adam was thinking.

No, he was thinking he could pacify me with a directing job

and then kill it after I signed off on Amelia Briggs.

That's exactly what happened.

Listen, I get that you're pissed.

So was I.

But we can try and look at the opportunity

that this gives us.

"The Resistance" was the opportunity.

I found the story.

I've been working on this for three years.

Then let's move on to a different project.

One that's free of the studio's control.

Look, I know the timing sucks,

but this script...

this is a special one, Kyle.

Why don't you read this?

No.

I'm not moving on to anything else.

Somehow, people have started to think

that they can mess with me,

and I'm not gonna let it happen.

Kyle.

Tell them I need an hour.

Hey, buddy.

Doing some work on yourself? That'd be good.

No, just checking in with Terence. Talking long-term goals.

In other words, you, my friend.

We're not friends, Adam.

And we're not making movies together anymore.

Okay, just slow down before you go off half-cocked.

You screwed me twice.

It's not gonna happen a third time.

You're going back to the Amelia Briggs thing now?

I put you in the best possible situation to succeed.

I'd love to get screwed that way.

And killing "The Resistance"?

- What's your spin on that one? - I didn't kill anything.

That was a legal snafu in the option

that DeAnn said she'd handle.

So it's DeAnn's fault

she didn't fix your screw-up.

It's DeAnn's fault because she set the meeting

with the rights owner, and then bailed on it.

I dropped the ball. That's fair.

But if you want to know why "The Resistance"

is with Premiere right now,

that's why.

You really think that bullshit story's gonna hold up in this town?

It's the truth,

and if you just take a breath,

we can sit down and actually have a productive conversation

about what our next steps are.

This one's been incredibly productive.

You know, that last scene was better than you think.

No, I thought it was good,

- I just... - I know.

You just wanted to break it all down and figure it out.

But don't be afraid to let raw instinct

carry you once in a while.

Sometimes you get the best stuff by not thinking

and just letting it be quick and dirty.

Are we still talking about acting?

It works for other things too.

Thanks.

And I'm glad I did the scene with no help.

If you hadn't said something, I probably would've taken

the earpiece just so Patrick wouldn't freak out.

That's one of the biggest problems in this business.

People freak out.

When I did "Opposite of Jessica,"

there was this asshole studio head who shall remain nameless.

Howard Levin!

Who told some assistant that he didn't want to sleep with me

because I wasn't skinny enough.

- Gross. Are you kidding? - Nope.

And the assistant blabbed to a producer,

and suddenly, they started changing my wardrobe,

even the way they lit and shot me.

The entire production was terrified,

and I was a mess.

How did you get through that?

Shirley Tate.

She went to the producers and told them

that she and her multiple Oscars were quitting

unless the nonsense stopped. And the nonsense stopped.

I love that.

The original take-no-shit gangster.

She was a wonderful woman.

We stick together in this business.

Someday you'll pay it forward too.

Well, I appreciate you coming.

I understand work has you very busy.

James been keeping you posted?

When I ask.

Well, work's been pretty much round the clock lately.

Yet you still managed to come here today.

Well, like you said, you asked.

Yes, but I'm not your boss, Shaun. You could've said no.

I know.

So maybe what I'm hearing about you losing interest in IHM

isn't entirely accurate?

Wha... I never said

I was losing interest.

It's just hard to figure out how it fits in

with the rest of my life.

But I am going to try and make

the Anatomy of Leadership this weekend.

Forget the seminar.

I've got something that will eat up less of your time

and give you more bang for your buck.

We're starting a child development program.

The First Life Initiative.

The idea is to create a path to adulthood weaving education

with IHM's philosophies on awareness.

That... that sounds amazing.

I agree.

As a result, we've applied for non-profit status,

but my in-house council has decided to build

his column in Switzerland.

So you need a lawyer?

Yeah.

A good one.

Someone who knows how to create a structure that will

help us avoid certain...

Regulatory inefficiencies.

Well said.

So are you ready to use your powers for good?

Hello?

Hey.

I wasn't expecting you.

What's this?

You asked me to move in.

This isn't all your stuff, is it?

God, no.

This is, like, the tip of my iceberg.

But I'm prepared to bring the rest under one condition.

You're prepared to go full iceberg?

I am.

I love you,

and I want us to share our lives with each other,

and I'm sorry for how I reacted when you asked,

but you have to promise me that you're not doing this out of fear.

Look, when... when Nic and I decided

to live with each other,

we did it to save money, but...

we weren't actually ready to be with each other.

Megan...

And I just want to make sure that you're ready.

Okay? This is a big step.

I know, and I'm really sorry for the way that I asked.

It's this whole break-in thing.

Whoever this stalker is...

I can deal with it.

I am dealing with it.

It's just...

I realized that you're the only person in my life

that I can trust.

I'm surrounded by people who use me to get what they want,

and I'm trying to figure out a way to change all that.

What happened with you and Terence?

I gotta keep that between Terence and I.

Is that okay?

Sure, yeah.

It's your business.

But I am ready to live with you and your iceberg

- in this house. - Okay.

And I'm not afraid.

Good, because I already made a date with the girls

to pack up my place tomorrow night.

Does it have to be at night?

- Kyle. - I'm sorry, you know,

I'm just saying that this guy is still out there,

and you can't just assume that he's not gonna come after you.

I will lock the windows and the doors,

and then I'm gonna enjoy saying good-bye to the place

I've lived in for, like, five years.

Okay?

- Okay. - I'm gonna run a bath.

Out of everyone, you surprise me the most.

Give me a chance to explain?

Nope, don't have time.

I gotta get some reading done.

You know, I do want to ask you one thing, though.

If you didn't want me directing "The Resistance,"

why didn't you just tell me?

I did want you to direct "The Resistance,"

but then Adam let the rights go, and I thought...

Please. I don't have time for this he said, she said crap.

Kyle.

He let the rights go, and I started to think

of the contingency plan like any producer would,

and that's when I found "Technicolor Highway,"

and I realized it is a much better choice

for your first directing job.

It's edgy, it's contemporary,

you're not burdened by the restrictions of the period.

There's a great part in it for Megan, and best of all...

You still haven't answered my question.

Best of all, we can make it independently.

No studio telling you what it needs to be.

I didn't tell you because I knew you'd say no.

Thank you.

Now, if you don't mind, I've got some work to do.

- Kyle... - No, look,

I wanted to do the other movie.

I loved it.

Dreamed about it.

And I can't work with someone who thinks they can

take that away from me.

Is this trash or donate?

I love that lamp.

I haggled with an old Russian lady for 30 minutes

to get that down to ten bucks.

Well, it looks like ten bucks,

and it smells like paste.

Chuck it.

My God!

- What? - What were you, like,

running a daycare?

No, I like games.

You cannot take these to that beautiful house, Megan.

Hey, I had to get three paralegals to cover me at work,

so I got no time for nostalgia.

The only way to do this right is to be ruthless.

Fine, donate.

Okey dokey.

Hi-dee-ho, ready to go!

Let's stuff some boxes, bitches.

That sound a lot less dirty

when I said it in my head.

Okay, that pile can be yours.

We're sorting into keep, trash, and donate.

And a very warm hello to you, too.

Only keep the essentials.

We're being ruthless.

Ruthless, got it.

What is this?

Donate? No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You cannot throw out The Deck of Nonsense.

- See! - Yes, we can.

I told her.

Captain Party Pooper. Put this in a safe place.

- Captain Party Pooper! - This we don't care about.

He said he wanted to strike out on his own?

Well, he made it very clear

he didn't want to work with me anymore.

That's unfortunate.

Unfortunate?

I don't know what you want me to say.

How about you tell me what your plan B is?

Because I don't think he's gonna wake up and realize

he needs us anytime soon.

He's not falling apart like you imagined.

I never said anything about us.

Wow, I guess I missed the part where it wasn't us anymore.

Did you?

'Cause I remember pretty clearly you telling me

to stay in my lane, to leave the producing to you.

I said that because you went behind my back.

Which is exactly what you just did with Kyle,

so maybe if you acknowledged I had the better idea,

it wouldn't bother you so much.

Better for Kyle?

Of course.

There was a time when you and I came first.

No matter what we did or who we did it with,

we made sure that we were okay.

When did that change?

Lisbeth.

Kyle fell apart and he took us with him.

No.

He took you.

You might be right.

Look, I felt responsible.

Like I'd failed him,

and I've been overcompensating since to make up for that.

DeAnn, I've done some things that I...

that I truly regret,

which I need to make right.

And I need to make things right with you too.

What if Kyle really doesn't come back?

He will.

But if he doesn't,

will there be anything left of us?

Of course.

Have you read anything good yet?

Yeah, the only decent one is about three generations

of Italian mobsters living in Sicily.

Isn't that "Godfather II"?

Pretty much.

How are you guys doing over there?

It's good.

Hope rescued my game stash,

so we're taking a tiny little packing break.

Okay.

I'm gonna get back at it.

You okay over there by yourself?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Listen, you stay safe over there, all right?

I'll hit you back in a bit.

Okay.

All right.

Kyle.

Jesus.

- Forgot you were still here. - Sorry.

I gave Juliet the new codes for the gate.

She'll be here at 7:30 to cook breakfast.

Okay, good.

I was gonna take off for the night, unless you need anything?

No. No, no, I'm good. Thanks.

Okay, no, I... no, I seriously have you so beat.

Like, so badly.

- Are you ready? - I was born ready.

- Lay it down, girl. - Are you gonna sell it?

You know I'm gonna sell it.

Of course you would give me this card.

Of course you would. Okay, um...

Coming in a theater near you...

"The Movie."

I've literally seen that movie.

Like, so many times in real life.

I miss hanging out with you guys.

- I know. - It's been so long.

Shit!

You know what we should do right now?

We should go to Skylark Club for dinner

and make them give us the employee discount.

That would actually be awesome.

But I don't work at Skylark Club anymore, so...

What? Why?

It was Bruno! He kept bothering me to be a manager,

so eventually I just had to tell him to go suck it.

Because he offered you a promotion?

Yes, because it means he thinks I'm not gonna make it

as an actress, so...

Yeah, managing a restaurant is, like,

40 hours a week minimum.

There's no time to audition.

Okay.

What does that even mean?

Do you have something to say, Shaun?

You... you made the right choice.

You're an amazing actress.

So stay strong, mi amiga.

And you.

Pick a card.

The road to hell is paved with...

Micropenises.

Jesus, are you seriously worrying about a stalker

coming to get us?

I think I'm seriously drunk,

but I promised Kyle I'd lock up, so I'm locking up.

So Kyle's a little worried?

A little. I get it.

I mean, he came home and his place was totally trashed,

and the person's still out there.

Yeah, well, that person didn't even take anything,

which just screams of a giant power trip.

Hello? Who does that sound like?

Who does it sound like?

Gandhi.

Terence Anderson!

Why on Earth would Terence break into Kyle's house?

Um, because he's creepy and he runs a cult.

Did no one go to the police with this information?

- You're an idiot. - Excuse me?

Actually, Kyle and Terence did have a falling out.

Fine, but that doesn't mean

Terence would trash Kyle's house.

You... you seriously have no idea what you're talking about

so you should just stop.

I'm not even sure why you're defending him,

and B, why are you being such an asshole?

Wha... I'm not the one talking shit

about someone I don't even know.

- You don't know him either. - I do know Terence.

I've been going to seminars at the Institute...

for weeks now.

What?

Terence asked me to help him with some legal work.

Legal work?

I didn't realize you were that involved.

Holy shit, you're a pod person.

Totally explains why you haven't been returning my calls.

Shaun, why didn't you tell me?

You're right.

I'm sorry.

But... trust me, Megan.

Terence is not your problem.

Yeah, no.

No, for sure, totally not your problem.

He can manipulate your boyfriend into firing you

off of his movie, but no,

don't worry about him; He's not your problem.

How can you even just sit here and act like you're the one

who has Megan's back?

What, did you just forget about what you did?

Okay, Shaun, enough.

No, I think this conversation is way overdue.

I think this conversation sucks right now.

What are you guys talking about?

Tell her.

- Or I will. - Tell me what?

Hope's the one who gave your naked pictures

to the press.

You did that?

Why?

Because you finally had your big break,

- and she couldn't handle it. - That is not why!

You know... you...

You know what?

I'm really sorry I had to tell you, Megan,

but, I can't do this anymore.

Okay, please, just hear me. Just hear me, please.

Okay, yeah.

Kyle kicked me out of his party and I was pissed...

- Holy shit. - No! Listen.

The people from the Institute like Kyle and Terence,

I keep trying to tell you that they're dangerous,

- and you're just not hearing me. - You humiliated me

in front of millions of people.

I thought that a scandal would make them leave you alone.

- It was the trade-off, right? - My God.

No, but it was a horrible idea.

It was a terrible, bad, stupid thing to do.

And I'm really sorry that I hurt you,

but it all came from love.

No, I-I...

I do not do that version of love anymore.

I can't have you in my life.

Megan, I made a mistake.

No. You need to leave.

Now.

What are you doing here?

We're overdue a meal together.

How'd you get in?

How do you think?

I have the code.

What the hell are you doing?

Stop it!

Stop!

Christ. Shit.

Megan.

I'm so sorry.

What happened? You okay?

Hope leaked the photos of me.

And Shaun...

I don't know who my friends are anymore.

Come on, let's get you to bed.

Business.

Well, okay then.

This is a contract for the rights to your script.

And a check for $100,000.

Kyle wants to do it?

No, not yet.

But one way or another, I will get this movie made.

Wow.

I don't know what to...

thank you.

There's a condition.

You don't come anywhere near this production, and...

you and I part ways.

Because you don't want Kyle or Megan

to know how this got started.

Or anyone else.

I didn't realize this would end with me disappearing.

You disappear.

But Ann Toren...

can walk into any studio with this credit

and her next great idea, and get a deal.

It's called a nom de plume,

and it's your chance to have something real in this business.

You should grab it.

So the key is to take a few minutes each month

to make sure you both know the new codes.

And at least you know it's working now.

Yeah. Yeah, now the alarm works well.

I gotta give this back to you, though.

I don't want it in the house anymore.

Well, it's your call.

Like I said, if you want to be safe,

you're gonna need more than you got now.

I know.

I have something in mind.

Hello there.

Hey.

You doing something on the lot?

Actually, I came by to bring you

a housewarming gift of sorts.

I'd like you to read this.

"Technicolor Highway"?

Who's Ann Toren?

A completely unknown writer,

but this script will knock your socks off.

It's a smart, completely fresh take

on Southern California Gothic,

and you would be perfect for the lead.

You want me to read this and then tell Kyle to direct it.

I'm sorry,

I'm not getting in the middle

of whatever's going on with you guys.

Megan, I just want you to read it.

Because if you connect with it like I did,

you'll go to Kyle regardless.

This is our chance for the three of us to make a movie our way,

with no interference.

Or maybe you won't like it, which case,

forget everything I said.

New pages for you.

Seriously? Again?

I don't call the shots, I just give them.

Whoever that is, it's me time! Come back in ten minutes!

Hi, it's Megan. I need to talk to you.

What is it? I'm decompressing.

Late-night writing?

Actually, Patrick and I rewrote the pages this morning.

And yesterday too, I guess?

I'm an executive producer on the show, sweetie.

It's my responsibility to make sure that the product

we're putting out there is as good as it can be.

Even if it means making me look bad?

You're not the product, Megan.

I am, and I have to protect myself.

I've been doing this long enough to know

that no one else is going to do it, and let's be real,

you didn't look bad.

No, I just sat there looking like an idiot

while I listened to a bunch of fake outrage and bullshit

about the sisterhood.

You lied to me.

I could've just told you to quit panicking and suck it up.

- Would that have been better? - I wasn't panicking.

I was just surprised that this happened...

You were panicking,

and I gave you a friend and an ally,

which is a hell of a lot more than people have given me

over the years.

I'm sorry you didn't feel supported.

I have seven more minutes to myself.

Go learn your lines.

Millennial bullshit.

- Welcome home. - Aww.

Hey, we got beer, right?

- Hell yeah, we got beer. - Yeah.

Things must have went well today.

Actually...

no, it was pretty much a nightmare.

I got new pages at the last minute again,

and then I discovered that Charlotte

actually helped rewrite them,

so not only did I wander blindly through the scenes,

but my childhood idol ended up being completely two-faced.

And then?

'Cause it seems like you're in a good mood.

And then...

I read this.

DeAnn came to see me.

Jesus.

I tell her I'm not interested,

and she goes behind my back to you.

I know that's exactly what she did,

and I told her it wasn't cool,

but, babe...

this script is really good.

I mean it.

It's so real and visceral,

and yet totally about character.

And the whole time I was reading it...

I read it twice, actually...

I just kept thinking that this script is so us.

"Technicolor Highway."

Who's Ann Toren?

I don't know, but she's the real deal.

Dear Kyle,

I'm running out of time.

It's time for me to face the consequences for what I did.

You can still distance yourself from me.

Kyle...

I only hope you can believe the truth...

that I love you...

and I'm so, so sorry...
