[upbeat folk music playing]

Josh, can you please just, um,

-look at the storyboard here?
-[Josh] Uh-huh.

[Izzy]
Me and my storyboard artists

worked on these panels
for, uh, about six years here.

I don't want to
toot my own horn,

but, uh, there's been
a lot of anticipation

from the whole team
about this project,

so I just, uh...

I'm very excited to get started.

Okay.

What's that?

No, I think it's--

[Izzy] You're perfect
right there.

[birds chirping]

-I'm Izzy.
-And my name is Diana.

And we're making a movie.

And it's called The Seed.

The Seed is an intimate
neo-noir

reflecting on both the overt
and subvert oppression of women.

Is there another way
to say neo-noir?

No?

I just--
as a-- as a, you know...

It's like a neo-noir.

Not everyone knows
what neo-noir is.

Well, like,
then we don't need their money.

Okay.

It's about the things
that limit us.

The possibilities in the future
through plant life.

The Seed is a film about the...

[groans]

Uh, apocalyptic? Fuck.

[Izzy blows raspberry]

This gorgeous woman sitting
next to me, Diana Irvine,

is our lead actress.

[birds chirping]

I-- I actually do think

it's important
to show vulnerability, Izzy,

I think it's important to--

when you're asking for money
to, like, endear yourself.

It's okay, just be human.

Our fundraising goal
is 600 tho--

[dog barks in distance]

That's always the thing
on crowdfunding stuff.

It's like, "Okay, why this--"

you know, "Why this project?"

Like, what about it
is so special?

Like, why our film, you know?

Yeah.

Are you gonna donate?

[both exhaling]

Yeah. Deep need. Yes.

-And you feel it.
-[Izzy sobs]

Oh, Iz. Oh, Iz.

[Izzy cries]

-[indistinct sobbing]
-Oh, no, you're actually upset?

Oh, I thought
you were acting for a second.

I was like, "That's good."

Our fundraising goal
is $600,000.

Any amount helps.

[upbeat folk music playing]

[all cheering]

[Josh] Howdy.

We're making a movie! Yeah!

[knocking on door]

-Hey!
-Hey, Iz. Hey.

-[Izzy] Road trip. So fun.
-Hey, Josh.

-What's with the camera?
-[Josh] Hey.

My brother's gonna do
behind the scenes stuff for us.

It's gonna be great
for marketing.

[Diana] Okay.

So he's gonna
follow us in his car?

-[Josh chuckles]
-[Izzy] No, he's gonna, um...

he's coming with us

'cause you got
a big old car here.

[Diana] I didn't know that
so I just gotta, um--

He's got these,
um, camera cases too,

so just, uh...

[Diana] Uh-huh.

[Josh] You still live
with your parents?

Yeah.

-Yeah.
-Dude.

You said you were gonna look
into the COVID protocols?

[Diana] Yeah,
so that binder back there,

that's the whole--
that's all of it.

[Izzy] Oh, I thought
these were your lines.

[Diana] No, no,
so that's the protocols

for the state and the city,
um, that we're gonna be in.

And then also
just my suggestions

for basic protocol on set.

[Izzy] This whole-- this whole--
this whole thing is--

-[Diana] Mm-hmm?
-Did you read the whole thing?

-[Diana] I compiled it.
-You wrote it?

[Diana] Well, I compiled it.

[Izzy] But I think
we're fine in the car.

I think I'm gonna take mine off

because it's just,
like, you know.

It's just too much in the car.

[Diana]
It is a long drive, I guess.

[Izzy] It's three days.
It's three days, Diana,

I mean, come on.

-I'll skim it.
-[Diana] No, don't skim it.

I mean, you know, you got
plenty of time to read it.

You can actually read it,
but we're okay

because we're-- you know,
we're effectively--

a-- a family.

There's also a section in there

about intimacy
and physical intimacy.

No touching, no hugging,
definitely no kissing.

We can't have any, like,
on set romances

or any like, hooking up
or anything like that.

You hear that Josh?

No hooking up.

-I think that's a good rule.
-[Diana] Okay.

I think
that's an important rule.

I think well done
for making that rule.

Uh, I think, yeah,
obviously no hooking up.

I mean, that's the best way

to get sick
for lots of different reasons.

Right, Diana?

You know some-- you know
a couple things about that.

-Don't put that in.
-[Diana] What? Izzy.

[paper rustling]

How much longer?

[Diana] Today? Like, six hours.

Thanks for driving.

[upbeat folk music playing]

Thanks so much for asking me.

I think it's really important
that I, in fact--

yeah, I think this is--
this is why you're here to--

so that I can share
all of my, you know, thoughts.

Making this film...

you know, it's just...

I've always dreamt
of making a film.

[Diana] Have you directed
a film before?

I have observed from afar

many, uh,
very powerful directors

and from that,

I have gleaned
excellent techniques

and I will bring that
to this production

and I'm very excited about it.

[exhales]

[sighs] Okay, not all--

You can stop now.

Oh, I am starving.

-This looks so good. Great.
-Yeah.

Did you just-- did you just
use the public bathroom?

Number two, so...

I...

I washed
my hands already, Diana.

Yeah, no, just,
you know, for safety.

Yeah, but the episode
should be airing soon.

I hope that,
you know, when I see Matt,

he'll tell me
if it was good or not

because I haven't
heard anything.

[Izzy] Did they like your
suggestions about the character?

Yeah, the director was,
like, all for it.

At first, a little resistant,

but then was just really
into me taking ownership.

[Izzy] And the wig
that you brought,

did they end up using that?

No, no, they didn't.

When that comes out
and then when this comes out.

-[Izzy] Yeah.
-Together it's gonna be so good.

I really want my reps also

to just, like,
see me in a new light

and I think that-

[Izzy] They didn't drop you?
I thought they dropped you?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

They just said
that we should, you know,

have a talk when I get back.

-[Izzy] To part ways?
-Um, no, no, no, no, no.

I mean that's, you know,

I mean,
I might decide that I want that.

-But I think they just---
-[Izzy] Right.

They just want to touch base.

[Izzy] Got it, got it.

You know, they-- I need
to tell them where I'm at

and they need to know
how I feel.

[Izzy] Yeah, totally.

There's gonna be
an enormous amount of momentum

for you after this, I think.

Yeah, yeah. Oh, I can't wait.

-I need that.
-[Izzy] Yeah.

-I need that momentum.
-[Izzy] Yeah.

-See the sign.
-[Izzy] Yeah.

Really, just a sign
that it's gonna keep going.

[Izzy] Yeah.

Um, so you were supposed
to have gotten off

about eight miles ago.

[Josh] Exit 75.

And let me try to find
the name of the road.

[Josh] It's called "Exit 75."

I just feel like we're going
in circles a little bit.

[Izzy] Well, we'll go
in a circle for this...

-[Diana] Okay.
-...but we're not--

we're going in a pretty
straight line otherwise.

[upbeat folk music playing]

Josh, thank God
that you are here.

This is absolutely terrifying.

-Oh, shit!
-What? What?

I forgot to bring my toothpaste.

I'll just...

I'll just use some water.

[Diana] Dude,
you can use my toothpaste.

-Really?
-[Diana] Yeah, it's okay.

It wasn't
in the protocols though.

It's okay.

[Diana spits]

[muffled speaking]

Did you brush your teeth yet?

[Diana gargles]

You have to brush
your teeth tonight, Josh.

[Diana grunts, spits]

He has this thing
about brushing his teeth.

-It's gross.
-[Diana] Mm-hmm.

-Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
-What?

Ew, I don't know,
there's something on the floor,

there's something there.

Gotta wipe it.

Do you have
any more of those wipes?

-[Diana] It's like tar.
-Tar?

[Diana] Did you tell her
that we're here?

-Did, like--
-[Izzy] No, I texted her.

[Diana] Okay.

[Izzy] She didn't text me back.
I think she does.

[Diana]
She didn't text you back?

[Izzy] Well, like, I don't--

[Diana] Does she know
we're coming today?

[Diana] Oh, my God,
this is so beautiful.

[Izzy] Oh, my God.

[Diana] Oh, my God,
it's beautiful.

Do you think
we can eat that corn

or is it like, uh--
like, uh, ornamental corn?

-[Izzy] Wait, what is that?
-[Diana] What?

-[horse stamping]
-Oh, my God.

[Izzy] Oh, my God,
that is beautiful.

-[Diana] Oh, my God.
-[Josh] Oh, wow. Wow.

[Izzy] Di, there's a tree,
what the fuck?

-[Diana] I'm sorry.
-[Josh] Jesus.

-Hi, Izzy.
-[Izzy] Hi!

-How you doing?
-[Izzy] I'm good. How are you?

What a beautiful farm you have.

This work for you?

[Izzy] Yeah, I think it'll work.

Diana was telling me
how incredible you looked

on the horse
when you were driving in.

-[Devon] Oh, my God. Thank you.
-Oh, yeah.

Well, I used to ride
so I just-- I miss it, you know?

-You used to ride?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

-What kind of riding?
-What did you do?

Um, like, a mix
of little-- a little English

and, um, uh,
the-- the-- the-- you know.

Yeah, cool.

-That's awesome.
-Yeah.

-There is a guy here.
-Yeah?

He's been looking for you.

-Wait, does he have a poof?
-He does.

He keeps asking about the WiFi.

[Man] Dude, you gotta wear
your mask.

I'm six feet, bro!

Oh, there he is. Hi, Matt!

-Hi.
-What's up?

-He's my producer.
-[Devon hums]

-He's amazing. Um...
-[Devon] Okay.

-He grows on you.
-[Devon] All good.

-I'll let you settle in.
-[Izzy] Amazing.

Well, yeah, you guys
should definitely hang out.

-I think you'll really--
-Yeah.

We will.
It'll-- we'll-- I'll see ya.

Why did you just say that?

It's so awkward, Izzy.

[Izzy] I want you to be friends.

[Diana] Yeah, but, like...

[Diana groans]

[Izzy] The Seed
is set in a barn,

which is why
we're in Kentucky here.

I really wanted
to combine rural America

with a sort of dystopian view,

sort of superimpose that
on-- on it.

Luckily, I have family friends
who own a barn here in Kentucky.

This image here, I think
really encapsulates the film,

you know, somewhat surrealist,
somewhat noir.

We had to, um...

scale back a little bit

on, um-- on these ideas just,
uh, for budgetary concerns,

so disregard
all of the, um, protective gear,

but, um, that was
the original intent.

I love this, Josh.

Little movement.

Most of my character work
starts with-- with costume

and-- and within the costuming,
starts with the feet.

My feet touch the earth.
It's how I stay grounded.

So I need to look down
and go, "That's Delta."

You know, from here up,
I'm Diana

and from here down, Delta.

So it's a--
it's a big part of my process.

[Josh] Acting.

Are shoes as important to you?

Yeah. Yeah.

-I think it's important...
-[Josh] Okay.

...for a character...

to get into character.

[Josh] To get in some shoes.

-It's a-- wardrobe.
-[Josh] Mm-hmm.

[Josh] Are those good pants
for horseback riding?

-Are there horses in this?
-No.

If you put a horse in this,
I can ride it.

I just didn't do
the world-building for that,

um, when I did my research.

Um, I didn't think about horses.

Okay, that's fine.

But we could ask Izzy.

I-- um, I can-- I can prep that,
I can prep that.

Then I am gonna...

put my pants on.

[Josh] Great!

-So...
-[Josh] So...

Gotta take these pants off
to get these pants on.

[Josh] Yeah,
totally, absolutely.

Uh, I'm gonna go talk to Izzy
about the horses.

-Thank you.
-[Diana] Yeah, yeah.

Well, it's a survival film.

So, um, if there-- if it--

if we're still in that range,
then we're good.

[Josh] Okay.
Yeah, for sure. Okay, bye.

Um, well, I...

I-- I think
everything has gluten in it, Di.

-Okay, that's-- that's fine.
-I'm so sorry.

No, no, no, no worries.
I just-- I just won't to eat.

-[Izzy] Okay, so--
-Hey!

-Oh, Geoff, hi.
-Hey, I made it.

You made it?
You're-- Geoff, you're late.

Yeah, I had to take care
of something.

What's with all these cameras?

-Matt, this is Jeff.
-[Geoff] Hey, 'sup, man?

This is our DP,
Alec has won a lot of awards.

We're super lucky to have him
and let me introduce you

to our co-- your co-stars,

um, Diana and, um, Devon,
this is Geoff.

-Hey, ladies.
-Hey.

Ma'am.

While I have you all here,

I've just got some, uh, forms
for you to sign.

-Here you go.
-[Izzy] Safety first.

-[Matt] Safety first.
-At all times.

[Matt] Just some
standard contracts, you know,

release forms, yadda, yadda,
yadda, boring, boring, boring.

Yeah, you can just sign
at the bottom.

That's right, you can skip
three through, uh, seven.

[Izzy] It's just right there.

This is just to release
production from responsibility

if something goes down...

which of course it won't

'cause we've got Izzy in charge.

Am I right? Sound good?

-[Izzy] Hey, what's up?
-Hey.

Try to distract them
when they're looking at it.

If they read the whole thing,
they might have more questions.

-Oh, what kind of questions?
-[Matt] Here we go.

Why does it say

that "the production
is not responsible

if any of us
catches any kind of--"

If you get sick,

we can't actually tell
where it came from, right?

So you don't know
that it came from here.

You know what I mean? We can't--

I don't know, I mean,
like, if all of us got sick,

I think it'd be pretty obvious.

-[Devon] Hey-- hey, Matt?
-Yes, ma'am.

I'm just wondering why that part

is handwritten on the back?

[Matt] Sure, that was,
uh, that's-- that's--

that's a little touch from me.

Bottom line is
if you don't fill out

these forms tonight,
we can't film tomorrow.

So just sign at the bottom.

-[Izzy] Hey, guys?
-[Matt] Thank you, brother.

Who, um, wants some wine?

No, no,
we're working tomorrow, so.

[Izzy] Oh, yeah, totally.

-[Devon] Um, I'll have some.
-[Izzy] Okay, cool.

[Matt] I got it,
the initials work.

-[Alec sneezes]
-[Matt] Bless you.

Just sign at the bottom

and, uh-- and, uh,
I'll date it for you

if you want me to.

Yep, thank you, brother.

Um, are we doing
the read through

tonight or tomorrow morning?

[Matt] Oh,
we actually have enough time

for either a read through
or load in,

so a real Sophie's choice.

You didn't schedule time
for a load in, what the--

[Matt] I can squeeze one in,

but then we've got
to pull up the call time

by two and a half hours.

-Matt, she'd have to do the--
-[Matt] No she doesn't.

All right, y'all,
so what we're gonna do

is we're gonna pull
the call time up tomorrow

by about two and a half hours
to make room for the load in.

That's about 4:30 a.m.,

not too bad, not too bad at all.

[Izzy] That's fine,
I've done that before.

[Matt] Easy pe--

Oh, and hey,
not gonna print new call sheets.

Why waste paper, yeah?
So just do the math.

Subtract about 150 minutes
from whatever it is now

and that's your call time, 4:30.

Gotta save those trees.
Right, Diana?

I was actually wondering, Matt,

um, how the episode
is coming together,

how the edit is,
and when is it gonna--

The episode. Our episode.

-Yeah, I'm dying to know.
-Oh, my gosh.

Also, it was so fun
working with you

and I'm glad
we get to do it again.

Oh, me too.

I'm really glad
we get to do it again

because that episode
has changed a lot.

Okay, cool.
I'm excited to see it.

I'll mark my calendar.
When is it coming out?

It's coming out next month

and it's not gonna look
anything like you remember.

Primarily from
your character's perspective.

Cool, can I still get
the footage for my reel?

You can't get
the footage anymore,

contractually and legally,
because, uh...

You know what?
Take a deep breath in.

-Exhale.
-[both exhaling]

One more time. Deep breath in.

You're not in it anymore.
We re-casted.

Exhale. [exhales]

Let that part out
of your system.

-Matt, sorry.
-We had to recast the part.

You did everything right.

We were just looking at it
and thought maybe somebody else.

-Wait, sorry, I'm-- I'm lost--
-[Matt] Don't be sorry.

No, no, Di. Don't be sorry.

Because now
we've got The Seed, huh?

Let's leave the past
in the past.

It's not even smart
to talk about it.

You recast me?

We did recast you,
but that was then, this is now,

and now you're first
on the call sheet, babe.

And I think this is redemption.
Hold that thought.

Hey, Geoff. Geoff, Geoff, Geoff.

It's actually- whoa,
we've gotta distribute these.

Protocol, you know what I mean?
Want some wine?

-[Geoff] Yeah, I do.
-[Matt] Got it.

I would actually
love some wine, too.

-[Matt] Yeah? Okay.
-Yeah.

-[Matt] Sure.
-Thanks.

Are you okay? Are you okay?

-[Diana] Oh, I'm so good.
-[Matt] All right.

I just-- I just changed my mind.

Really happy to be here.
Thank you so much.

And hey, I hate
that we had to do it like this,

but I know you can handle it.

-You know what?
-Yeah?

We'll just-- you'll get me
on the next one, right?

[Matt] I will get you on that--
you know, I got you on this one.

-How about that?
-Can I get some more wine?

Or actually something stronger.
Do we have any--

Is that normal for, like--

to do, like, the whole roll
and get cut?

Um, it does happen
to some people.

[Diana] Yeah, yeah, for sure.

And you know-- you know people
make-- make-- make choices,

I mean, editing-- a movie
is made three times, right?

When it's-- when it's written,
when it's shot,

and when it's edited,
so, um, there's a lot of...

there's a lot of changes
that happened.

I'm just gonna-- um,
I'm gonna run to the bathroom.

-And then I'll be back.
-[Izzy] Okay.

Can you not? Just don't--

-[Devon] What is happening?
-Just don't talk to her, okay?

She's-- it's-- it's-- it's
just happened a lot, okay?

So please just
don't say anything.

Are these guys gonna be filming
the whole time?

Um...

yeah.

[Alec] Izzy, this is so weird.

I'm gonna need you

to blur my face out
of all of this stuff.

-I'm gonna go to sleep.
-[Izzy] Sorry.

Yeah, I'm gonna see
how Diana is.

Okay.

Is this your first movie, too?

Yeah.

-Yeah.
-Cool.

Yep.

It's gonna be great.

It's gonna be great.

-Good night.
-[Devon] Night.

Hey, Josh.

Do you know where I'm staying?

[Josh] Uh...

[crickets chirping]

Good morning.

Guess what day it is today?

It's the first day of my movie!

And I'm just, um...

I'm just really happy.

I'm really happy.

I have been on sets
for ten years...

as the assistant
to somebody else

and guess-- guess what?

Not anymore!

This time, it's my set...

and I'm not an assistant.

[laughs] It's so good.

I'm so happy.

[sighs]

If I can do it, so can you.

Keep going.

[upbeat folk music playing]

[video playing]

-Oh, hey, Geoff.
-Hey, morning.

-Hi.
-Yeah.

Hey, um, is my boom guy
here yet?

Oh, yeah, buddy, we cut him.

You-- you what?

We cut him. [imitates scissors]

[sighs]

Motherf--

-[water splashing]
-Dude.

[Geoff] What's your job?

[Alec] Don't you have some,
like, acting exercises to do?

-[Geoff] No.
-[Alec] That's really too bad.

[Geoff] How high's that go up?

[Stefan] Hey, um,
have a sound pack for you.

So are you comfortable
with this?

-[Devon] Yeah, that's fine.
-[Stefan] Down here.

Okay.

[Matt] Hey, Diana.

-You look bad.
-Okay.

Hey, Matt, sorry,
do you have an Ibuprofen?

Nah, Ibuprofen? No.

Wait, you're not sick, are you?

-No, no, I just have a headache.
-Okay, are you sure?

Because we're all getting tested
again tomorrow.

-Yeah, I promise I'm fine.
-Okay.

Um, Josh, do you-- no.

Did you drink too much?

[Josh] Nice costume, man.

It's just
my regular clothes, man.

[Josh] Hey, Izzy,
why does this guy have a beeper?

Um, I don't know, he's just,
like, a nostalgic kind of guy.

[Josh] Hey, Izzy, how do you
and Geoff know each other?

Uh, just--

uh, I don't know,
like, out and about.

-[Josh] Ew.
-[both] Out and about.

Rehearsal, everybody!

Okay, so tell me
about your limp.

You push your hip forward
and then you roll with it.

Okay, two more times.

Delta Ray.

[tense music playing]

[Izzy] It's empty.

[straw rustling]

[Devon] You don't know
what's in that.

I do now.

High levels of nitrogen,
little phosphorus.

Potassium carbonate.

Someone tried
to burn something here.

-Maybe a body.
-[honking]

-[honking continues]
-Okay, sorry.

I'm so sorry, guys.
I'm so sorry. Um...

[Diana]
Okay, while we're holding,

are we gonna be going in
any tighter or?

Because I'm saving
a lot for the--

Yeah, no, we'll go tighter.
Just-- just-- just a moment.

We'll-- We'll-- Diana. We'll...

Go check it out.

Yeah, I'll definitely go
check it out.

Okay.

Like, now.

Oh, like, right now, right now.
Got it.

-[Felipe] Hi!
-Hey, can I help you?

-[Felipe] Hey.
-Can I help you?

-[Felipe] Yeah.
-Okay.

-I'm here for a set visit.
-Oh, okay.

Uh, normally when you come
to see somebody on set,

you're coming
to watch them film,

so you wouldn't drive up
slamming on your horn.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
That's exactly what I did.

[Matt]
That's exactly what you did.

-Matt, this is Felipe.
-Uh, Felipe? Felipe.

-[gasps] Felipe!
-[Izzy] Hi.

-Hey.
-I'm so sorry.

-[Felipe] All right.
-[Izzy] It's okay.

[Felipe] Oh, my God.

Hi, Felipe. You're here!

-You're doing it.
-I'm doing it.

Um, how are you?

-How was the drive?
-[Felipe] It was wonderful.

I saw a bird that I think
was pretty much the same bird

just followed me half the ride.

I met a girl in Wichita.

-Wichi-- Wichi-- Wichita.
-Wichita.

Her name was Chastity

and, uh, I spent the night
just, like, holding her

while she cried

and it was transcendent.

So you with the, um, stranger
on the way--

With Chastity.

Wow, okay,
so, um, just by the way,

so we can't hook up
with anybody here.

Diana's--
It's Diana's rules, so.

Just for s-- you know, safety.

-Okay.
-Oh, hi, guys.

This is Felipe.
He's our financier.

He's, you know,
big man on campus.

He's the reason
that we're all here.

So, I think, like,
let's give him

a really big round of applause.

-Yay, Felipe!
-[Felipe] Stop!

-[Izzy] So fun.
-Stop it.

Stop it, you guys.

[laughs] Stop, stop.

[Matt] All right,
should we keep going?

-[Felipe] Let's do it.
-Yeah, come on guys.

-[Felipe] Yeah, let's do it.
-[Izzy] Come on. Geoff.

-We'll talk.
-[Izzy] Great.

[Felipe] Let's make a movie!

Hi!

Thanks for so much,
like, for all of this.

Oh, my God, it's my pleasure.
I'm so excited.

Everyone--

Actually, can I get a headset?

-Oh, Stefan.
-Oh, yeah, sure.

Can we get a headset for Felipe?

No? No more headsets?

-Um...
-Um...

Yeah, that's fine.

Oh, my God. Thank you.

-Yeah, sure.
-Okay. That's really sweet.

That's, like, amazing 'cause
you already know the script.

[Izzy] Okay. And action.

[Geoff]
What y'all doing on my land?

Actually, just so I'm not,
like, get in the way again,

can I sit?

'Cause I've been driving and
my legs are, like, killing me.

[Felipe] I just don't want
to complain again about it--

You want to sit
because you've been driving?

Yeah, that's fine.

I'm so sorry,
of course, take a seat.

Thank you so much. Thank you.

-[Izzy] Um, yeah, no problem.
-[exhales] That's better.

Why does it just keep...

-[Devon] Hey.
-[Diana] Hey.

You're on my target.

Um-- oh! Oh, oh, wow.

-Sorry.
-[Devon] It's all right.

Wow. This is...

that's cool.

-You wanna try?
-No, no, no.

[Devon] Why not?

Come on.

-Left forearm.
-Okay.

Yep.

-Grab it right below my hand.
-Okay.

Nope. Below. Yeah. Nice.

-Okay. Two fingers.
-[Diana] Mm-hmm.

Just gonna pull it
right back onto the string.

-Into here. Okay.
-Yep, that's nice.

-Okay, you can go.
-Oh, my gosh.

I want you
to square your hips up.

-Okay.
-Okay. This arm straight out.

-[Diana] Mm-hmm.
-Great.

Now pull this one back.

You're gonna anchor your thumb
to the corner of your mouth.

-Yeah? When you're ready.
-Mm-hmm.

-Okay. Yep.
-Okay.

Gotta keep it square.

-Okay.
-Yep. Good.

Nice. Yep. Straight.

Oh, my God, I'm sorry.
It's really scary.

-It's okay.
-I'm so sorry.

-No, you're doing well.
-Okay, I just feel--

Good. That's good. You got it.

-I'm just nervous.
-Don't be.

Okay.

There you go. Yep. Way back.

-Arms straight. Eyes forward.
-Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Slightly down. Good.

When you're ready.
Keep your eyes forward.

-Yes. Sorry.
-Just release the two fingers.

-Wow!
-That was actually really good.

I've never done that before!

Well, you did a really good job.

-Thank you.
-You're so welcome.

-Wanna do it again?
-No, no, no, no, no, no.

-No?
-No. You take that.

-Okay.
-But I'm really grateful.

You're so welcome.

And now it's a new--
new skill of mine.

As a thespian I can tell people

I've-- I've done it
before at least.

Cool, well,
I'll leave you to it.

I don't wanna--
I don't wanna im-- impede.

-[Devon] All right.
-I'll see you.

Ooh, I need to make sure
you understand your job.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, so what happens?

Before 11, girls get in free,
dude, you can't charge them.

Chicks in free, dicks pay.
Yeah, chicks free, dicks--

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you get it.
Make it a rhyme.

Okay, it's not a club.
No, it's a lounge.

That's right.

Dude, I'm on a movie set, bro.

[speaking in Spanish]

Put Mom on the phone.
Put Mom on the phone, dude.

Dinner's good?

[Matt] Yeah, no,
we should-- we should--

[Izzy] Yeah, it's really yummy.
Who made it?

-I think it's really yummy.
-[Matt] Yeah, it's delicious.

Soul food, that's that supper.

-I'm just gonna go eat outside.
-No, Di, Di, Di.

We're a pod,
so we're actually all safe.

-[Izzy] Yeah, we're a pod.
-This is good. We're safe.

Out of all the pods I'm in,
I trust this pod the most.

Are you-- are you
in more than one pod?

-[Geoff] What does that mean?
-Yeah.

Well, it's like a pod of pods.

I don't think that's-- I don't
think that's how it works.

[Geoff] That's not
how it works at all.

-CDC.
-Okay. Okay, sure. You're right.

I think it's okay, Di.

It's-- we just, like,

cleaned-washed
our hands and stuff.

Do you want me
to get you some more food?

-No, no, I got plenty.
-Okay.

So I've been meaning to ask you,
is this your first feature?

I did
a TV movie last-- last spring,

but this is the first time
I'm a lead,

-so...
-[Geoff] Amazing.

This is my first time, so,
I mean, give me some pointers.

[Diana] Yeah, 'cause you've done
a lot of theater and stuff?

[Geoff groans] I mean,
it's not really theater per se.

-It's more like dinner theater.
-Um, hey, guys.

Um, in the, uh, spirit
of community and sharing,

we're actually
all gonna, um, share

the cost of food for production.

-[Stefan] Is that a joke?
-[Alec] Yeah.

I mean, I thought Felipe was
bankrolling this whole thing.

[Felipe]
I'm getting a phone call.

Bonjour. Oui.

-[Izzy] Uh...
-[Matt] Okay, listen.

Honestly, we have
a tight budget, all right?

-So, uh--
-[Alec] What budget?

-You're not paying us.
-Yeah, they are.

[Alec] They're paying you?

-What?
-Oh, great. Okay.

I see that
we've reached a consensus.

Beautiful.

Um, so production will be
covering the cost of food

and thank you so much
for all speaking your truth.

It's very helpful
for me, so great.

[Geoff]
When she says from now on,

does that mean
we have to pay for this one?

'Cause it's tasted way better
when it was free.

How are we actually
going to cover that?

Um...

Felipe, you know, has donated
so much already, so, uh...

[indistinct chatter]

Uh, well, you know,
um, my unemployment check

I think will clear
at the end of this week

and then I can
probably cover half of it

and then you could maybe cover
the other half maybe?

I, uh...

Oh, um, okay, no, that's okay.

No, it's my project

and I will shoulder,
um, the costs.

You sure?
'Cause I don't wanna be a dick.

Yeah, no, it's my choice
and it's my voice.

I love that rhyme.

[Diana] Josh,
you're filming this too?

[Josh] Unpaid work.

[Matt] Grab a chicken wing.
Grab a chicken wing.

[Diana] Yeah, there's more
that's here for you guys.

Hi. Hello. Yes, yes.

Um, my name is Is-- Isabel,
Isabel Shill,

S-H-I-L-L.

Yes, that's right.

Hi, Candace.
Yes, so nice to-- uh, hello.

I was wondering, um,
uh, if there's any way for me

to increase my credit card limit
on my Visa?

Um, uh, it's already-- okay.

No. Okay. Um, that's fine.

That's fine.

How about...

um...

how about on my dad's card?

[Josh] What the fuck?

[exhales] Okay. Focus, focus.

[exhales] Okay. Focus.

Big Geoff to Little Geoff,
real talk right here.

That picket fence. The family.

That ship sailed.
We didn't make it.

Uh-huh.

It doesn't have to be
like before.

[sighs]

Right, yeah. You're an actor.

You got this.

It's like that thing Jack says.

Lie to yourself first,
double down,

the world falls into place.

[sighs]

Don't screw this up.

[upbeat folk music playing]

Good morning, camera.

-[Izzy] Good morning, Geoff.
-Oh, hey.

-Did you sleep okay?
-[Geoff] No.

[Izzy] Do you want me
to move that?

[Stefan] No.

[Izzy] That's
a safety hazard, Alec.

-[Izzy] Geoff.
-[Alec] Geoff, please.

-[Geoff shouts]
-What are you doing, man?

-[Diana] Morning!
-[Izzy] Hi, Diana!

-[Diana] Hey, what's up?
-Hey, good morning.

[Alec] Izzy, can you
clear frame please?

[Geoff sighs]

Did you-- did you
just touch my prop?

What? No, no.

I would never.

[Alec] Uh, yeah, sure. Whatever.

[Izzy] I-- okay,

guys, guys,
I think the communication

is breaking down
a little bit here.

-Please don't touch the camera.
-Just checking the frame.

[Alec] Geoff, get-- Jesus!

-Josh... Six feet!
-[Josh] Okay, dude!

Sorry, Jesus. Stop.

Like a fucking zoo.

[Diana vocalizing]

-Geoff, get away from me.
-When do we rehearse?

[Alec] Hey, Geoff, clear frame.

This is all frame. Thank you.

[Diana vocalizing]

[Alec] Are you kidding me?
Get out of my space.

[Diana]
The genetics are malleable.

[pounding]

[Geoff] Jesus.

[Izzy] You know,
she's-- she's asexual, you know?

[Geoff] Ugh, what?

[Stefan] Seriously?

-I'm not.
-[Stefan] Huh?

-Josh!
-[Josh laughs]

-Get outta here.
-[Josh] Why?

-That's weird. Stop.
-[Josh] You're weird.

-Can I help you?
-[Josh] Y-- yes.

[crickets chirping]

Hi. Yes.

I would like to report
a work violation in Kentucky.

Not LA. No.

I've brought it up several times

and production doesn't seem
interested

in following the regulations

that, as far as I know,

state and local governments
have issued.

No, I have a list.

What? Oh, sorry, what?

My membership number?

Um, uh, I thought I could make
an anonymous complaint?

That's what it said
on the website at least.

Right. Right, I--

There aren't any
SAG performers on this shoot.

Well, that was
such a funny joke.

No, it's not.

I am not in SAG

but I am SAG eligible.

Yeah. Oh. Sure.

I-- mm-hmm.

Well-- well-- well, thank you.

Thank you for all
that you do for--

Hello?

Um, I'm just...

[sighs] Hello?

[ominous music playing]

[paper rustling]

Morning.

[Izzy] So, here, um, I'm really,
really excited about this.

This is the miracle plant here.

It came to me in a dream

and it has the ability
to inseminate women.

Um, and that is
how it saves the world.

Yeah, it kind of kept appearing
in my unconscious mind,

um, over and over
and over again.

Hey, now. I was just looking.

Looked like you were touching.

-Is this it?
-[sighs] Maybe.

-How do I know it's even real?
-That's none of your business.

If this is gonna
save our species,

I think it falls
under the purview

of something I'd like to know.

This is it.

-How's it work?
-[Devon] Don't.

It's genetics are malleable.

[scoffs] What does that mean?

It's double helix
adapts to different species.

Um, this is a moment
of discovery for Russ,

you know,
as well as the audience.

-[Devon] Yeah.
-And I just want to make sure

that we're all clear
on the scientific language.

The thing
that's amazing about it

is that it's actually
all really possible.

-It is?
-[Devon] Yeah.

[Izzy]
In theory. Uh, let's shoot.

Oh, okay, um, it's-- no.

It's not possible,
just so you know.

It's not a thing.

I made
some breakthroughs with plants,

cross pollinations that,
in other circumstances,

would never hybridize.

Then with rats.

I had some success
with the jellyfish.

I was on the verge of seeing

if it could fertilize
a human egg.

That's when the ash came.

-The ash.
-The ash.

But we've been on the run
for about a week now.

It needs some consistent
photosynthetic opportunity

in order
to maintain the stability

of its genetic structure.

Yeah, sure.

Male sperm
would no longer be necessary.

It's fine with me.

But how would you even go about
fertilizing a human egg then?

Experiments are ongoing.

-[Josh] Diana.
-Oh, hey.

-[Josh] Hi.
-Hey.

-[Josh] How are you doing?
-Good, good.

-I'm just working.
-[Josh] Cool.

I just have my script analysis
happening right now.

What I'm doing
right now, actually,

is I am working
on my animal exercises.

Delta Ray is a scientist,
she's very smart.

She is-- she is grounded

and-- um, and wise

and so for her,
I've chosen a salamander.

You know, really what that means

is that I observe salamanders
in the wild

or watch YouTube videos

and I just sort of
go deep on their behavior.

-Yeah.
-[Josh] Neat.

And, you know,
the person who really--

really taught me this,

um, is my acting teacher,
Rudolph Eichner.

He teaches the Eichner technique

and I've been studying with Rudy
for about ten years now,

so, um, you know,

if it wasn't for him, I...

I wouldn't be in this place.

Geoff, for example,
Geoff is a badger, you know?

He's got that energy to him.

Because of Rudy,
I can identify quickly,

um, what people's animals are.

He-- he's not cheap,

but-- uh,
but he is worth every penny

and, you know,
if I have to skimp,

um, and pay,
like, cheaper rent--

I-- I've moved,
I have moved before

because all I wanna do
is-- is afford that class.

If you bring people
into the class,

you get a discount.

So-- um, so I have
a lot of friends in that class.

Yeah.

Anyways, I-- I think
I should get back to studying

because we have an early call
and I am behind.

[Felipe] Terrible.

-Hey.
-Hello.

So word on the street
is you were the voice

of [bleep] in
[bleep] the Explorer.

-That's the word on the street?
-Oh, no, sorry.

-Uh, Izzy told me.
-Izzy told you that?

Sorry, sorry,
should she not have?

No, I'm just kidding.
Yeah, that was totally me.

Uh, I-- I was.

Cool. That's amazing.

I've been trying to get
into voice over

if you have any tips.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

There's, like, one golden rule.

-One.
-There's one rule. Okay?

And it's that the microphone

can hear
your facial expressions.

Say this line with a frown.

-Okay?
-Okay.

[Felipe] Um, uh,
"This food is unacceptable."

This food is unacceptable.

[Felipe] Okay, now say it
with, like, a big smile.

This food is unacceptable.

Big frown. Bigger. Bigger.
Frown with your cheeks.

Frown with your cheeks more.

And now say,
"This food looks terrible."

This food looks terrible.

And now, like, a big smile
and feel the difference.

Feel the difference.

Smile with your ears,
like-- like, all--

like, lift it all up,
lift it all up,

and then say,
"This food is terrible."

This food is terrible.

[Felipe]
Do you feel the difference?

-Oh, my God.
-[Felipe] Right?

It's, like, opposite.

'Cause you're changing
your tool.

Oh, yeah.

First the ash, now acid rain.

We're done for.

-You're not leaving, are you?
-[Felipe] Diana?

-Sorry. Diana.
-Yeah?

I-- [Felipe sighs]

You know, Diana, okay, babe,

I need you to--
have you ever heard the phrase

-"Use your diaphragm"?
-Yes.

Okay, I need you to, like,
take your diaphragm,

wring it out,
and when you say your lines,

like, squeeze
the tension back in,

and say the lines
through your nose

as opposed to just like,
keeping them in your mouth.

-Okay, Okay.
-Okay?

-[inhales] It feels trapped.
-It feels trapped.

-Let it-- let it out.
-Okay.

-[Felipe] You know?
-Okay. Thank you.

-Yes. Yes.
-Okay, cool, cool.

Is that-- is that okay, Izzy?

I-- I think that maybe,

um, that we should do that

-at the end of the take.
-Good, yeah.

[Felipe]
Me giving notes and stuff?

Yeah, I think it would be good
if we did that at-- at the end.

-Yeah.
-[Alec] We're rolling right now.

Yeah, yeah, that's a good--
that's a good point.

That's a good point,
that's smart.

Maybe you could come and...

-[Felipe] Moment.
-...sit down again.

Yeah, yeah.

Do you have any notes for me?

Oh, no, no, no.

Devon, you're, like,
you blow everyone away.

You're the best actor here.
All good.

Okay, all right, cool.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Awesome, awesome, so...

-I just, um--
-[Diana vocalizing]

[Felipe] What's going on?

-[Diana] Yeah, hmm.
-I think that maybe, um--

I think that maybe,
we should go again.

We're going again.
Is anybody listening to me?

-Sorry.
-Sorry.

And action!

-Hot nurse. Hot nurse.
-[Matt laughing]

So, that means quiet, everybody.

[cricket chirping]

It's not easy being the leader.

I think I could have maybe

done a little bit
of a better job

communicating with my team.

I need to rally,
and get people back on board.

I'm gonna pull it together.

Everything is great.

People are feeling
so good on set,

really believing
in the material.

I'm not worried.

I'm not worried at all.

[mellow techno beat playing]

-[music stops]
-[Devon] Hey, Iz?

Yeah?

In my pants?

I don't understand why I would.

[Izzy] Well, it's about
the genetic structure

-of the leaves.
-[Devon] No, I get it.

-[Izzy] You know, it's like--
-Can you just-- can you--

But did you put this one
in your pants already?

[mellow techno beat continues]

-[music stops]
-[Devon] Um...

how-- how much
do you want me to enjoy this?

[Izzy] Um, well, um...

I think it's--
I think it's an erotic scene.

-You know?
-Sure.

[mellow techno beat continues]

-I don't...
-Right.

-...do this, and so I--
-[Izzy] Right, right, okay, so--

Like, I just need
a little bit of direction here.

-Breathing is always good.
-Like, teeth...

-bared?
-Mmm.

-Teeth is never...
-I don't know, I just sometime--

-...really that great.
-Okay.

-No teeth.
-Um, maybe, like...

-play, like, cup on that area.
-Okay, yeah, yeah.

-[mellow techno beat continues]
-[Devon breathing heavily]

-[music stops]
-[Izzy] Devon, you feeling good?

-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-[Izzy] Okay, from the top.

[Izzy] So that's
your first mark.

Okay.

Did you get all this stuff?

Did you see
the smiley face cake?

Oh, it's fantastic,
and by the way,

thank you so much
for supporting this project.

It's a really exciting film
to be a part of.

Oh, no.

All right, sweet or savory?

[Geoff] Bagel?

[Felipe sighs]

-Hey, your tummy talking to you?
-I'm good, man.

You should try one of these,

try one of these,
try one of these.

If you want more,
I'll have more.

I'll have more of this.

I'm not trying to be dense,
but I'm-- I'm totally confused.

-So this plant makes babies?
-[Diana] Mm-mm, mm-mm.

It allows people to make babies.

Okay, but so when
it makes babies, are they, like,

cute, soft babies

or do they have,
like, hard bark skin?

I didn't prep that, Devon.

You guys, I'm pretty sure

Izzy googled all of this.

Because I was thinking
we could just, you know,

change our lines ourselves

into something
that maybe made sense.

It's all gibberish anyway.

It's come to my attention...

that people in this cast,

um, want to change their lines.

They want to rewrite the script.

They want to go back,
and change things

even though
we're already behind,

because I'm not a machine,
and I can't come up with ideas,

like, constantly.

If they didn't like it

then they
shouldn't have signed on

is how I feel, but maybe...

maybe I'm not built...

for this.

[Diana singing in Spanish]

[Geoff joins singing]

So Geoff, when you put
your hands like this,

it blocks the shot.

Okay, so what-- what--
what would Russ do

with his hands in the scene?

Put them in your pockets.

-Okay, I'll try that.
-Okay.

It's, like,
not usually this bad.

-Um, so--
-Hmm, it's a lot of takes.

So let's just go again,
and action!

[Diana singing in Spanish]

[Geoff joins singing]

Geoff, it took me eight years
to write this,

and I would have specifically
written "gun..."

-if a gun was supposed--
-[Geoff] I just thought maybe,

like, if there's

-like, marauders and--
-Please, let's--

-let's start again.
-[both singing in Spanish]

-[Matt] Sabroso.
-Oh, it's "sabroso."

-[Matt] Sabroso.
-[Geoff] Sabroso,

-it's not what I said?
-Sabroso.

-[Geoff] Sabroso.
-Sabroso.

-Listen to him. Yes.
-[Geoff] Like I said.

Not like you said it.

[both singing in Spanish]

-[Izzy] Okay, sorry.
-[Matt] Sabroso.

Sabroso.

-Sabroso, sabroso, sabr--
-[Geoff] Like that.

-Do it more like that.
-It's okay, you got it.

No, it's okay.

Why is he giving my actor notes?

-I have no idea.
-Why is he giving my actor--

-I'll talk to him.
-I thought you talked to him.

I talked to him already.
I'll talk to him again.

I thought he retained it.
I thought he retained it.

I thought-- I didn't know.
I told him not to and he did.

-Why aren't you doing your job?
-I'm so sorry.

-I'm trying to do my job, but--
-I just think that I need--

No, Iz, Iz, I'm sorry.
Izzy, I'm sorry.

I think that I need...

-10 minutes.
-No, no, Izzy,

we don't have 10.

We're already
a whole day behind.

Are you-- did you get--

-Just--
-Izzy.

[Izzy sobbing]

This is really hard.

[sniffles]

I don't know what to do.
I don't know what I'm doing.

Is this stupid?

[Diana] Where's Izzy?

[Matt] Uh, she's taking--
taking a fi-- taking a break.

She's just looking at--

she's looking at something else,

-checking out something out.
-Must be nice.

Why are they so bad?

[sobbing]

Why are you still filming me?

-[Josh] You told me to!
-Stop it!

[Josh] Okay.

Jeez.

[crickets chirping]

[snoring]

[speaks gibberish]

You're not leaving, are you?

No, okay.

You're not leaving, are you?

You're not leaving, are you?

[beeping]

Hey. [chuckles]
How'd you find me here?

-Beeper.
-Oh, yeah, right.

You gotta move
more product, Geoff.

Listen, I have been
talking it up to everybody

-in this cast and crew...
-Uh-huh.

...but nobody's biting, Jack.

Don't call me by my name.
What did I say?

-[Geoff] Trevor.
-Trevor.

-[Geoff] Trevor.
-Show me.

Ah...

-You see--
-Open it.

I'll do better.

[Jack] Oh, my God.

We were counting on you.

We let you into the family.

We're committed to you.
If you are not committed to us,

maybe we need to recali...

-No. No.
-...btate.

[Jack] They're fucking filming?

-Yeah, it's a movie.
-[Jack] Oh, my God!

It's a movie set.

Fucking kill you.

-[Geoff] Ow! Ow!
-[Jack] Oh, are you scared?

I'm scared of your failure.

[Geoff] I just need
to pull this new guy in,

just a little bit,
this guy Felipe?

You saw him,
long hair, kinda cute.

I haven't pulled
