- You're a writer, aren't you?

- Yeah. How'd you know?

- Writers don't have to get
all done up for meetings.

Not like actresses.

You guys can wear anything.

- Thank you?
- Mm-hm.

- Hannah, we're ready for you.
- Great, coming.

[exhaling loudly]

- Oh, um.
- What?

ACTRESS: You--
- Oh, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!

Um... can you help me?

- So, my team tells me you've done some
really original stuff in the indie space.

- Uh, thank you. I try.

- Well, we're definitely on the lookout
for breakthrough shows,

the edgier the better.

So, what do ya got?

- I wanna reboot the old sitcom
Step Right Up!

- [laughing] Step Right--
Are you serious?

HANNAH:
Dead serious.

And I wanna do it with the original cast.

- Am I... thinking of the right one?

Can somebody pull up a clip?
- Oh, yeah.

- Got it!

JOSIE: [on video]
Hey, how was the skate park?

- Great! Dad taught me
how to do a kickflip.

[Josie gasps]
- Oh, I can teach anyone how to skateboard.

[Josie laughing]

- Oy.
[audience laughing]

- Well, almost anyone.

- Oh, Lawrence, honey, what happened?

- Well, I, I wanted to make
a good impression on my new stepson.

- Sir, it does surprisingly well

with Family, Pop Culture,
Vicarious-Living,

Average viewing time, 63 minutes.

- Are we sure that's not just people
leaving it on for their dogs?

- No, we track that.

- Elaine just joined
the creative team from research.

I, I gotta say, it seems like
an odd choice from someone so edgy.

Y-You are the edgy one, right?
Or is that my 11:15?

- No, no, she's the one who did that movie
at South by Southwest I told you about.

What was it called?
- Thank you, um, for having seen it.

It's called Cunt Saw.

- Oh boy. Then I'm a little bit confused.

Why do you wanna do
something so traditional?

- Uh, yeah, um, god, it's hard to explain.

Okay, you know how in the old sitcom,
the characters always did the right thing?

- Mm-hm.

- They don't do the right thing anymore.

- Oh.
- You know, like, I fuck with it.

But in a fun way.
- Mm-hm.

I don't know.
It might be too edgy for you. [employees laughing]

- You're talking to the guy who, uh,

greenlit the fifth season
of Handmaid's Tale.

- So brave. So brave.

EXECUTIVE:
Do we know if the cast is available?

- Or alive?

- Well, according to Wikipedia,

Step Right Up was cancelled when

Reed Sterling left
to pursue a film career,

but, for whatever reason,
no film or TV lately.

CASTING ASSISTANT:
That's the deal, you cocksucker.

You can take it, or I beat you
to death with a fucking bat.

- Well, look at you.
Actin' like you A-Rod or some shit

when I'm the ruthless muthafucka
standin' here with a .38 snubnose.

You know what?
Um, actually, I'm thinking

that perhaps I should infuse him

with a layer of weariness
and vulnerability.

CASTING ASSISTANT:
Maybe don't think.

- Well, not-not exactly what they taught
us at the Yale School of Drama.

CASTING ASSISTANT:
Thank you.

- Bree Marie Jensen did a season
on a low budget sci-fi cable show

called StarBlast Five.

- Status?

- Captain, it has to be
the multi-camera spectrometer

and cryo-cooler.

I'll repair them as soon as I

nourish my larvae.

ELAINE:
Says she then left Hollywood

to marry the Duke of a small
Nordic country named Fjordstad.

And Clay Barber?

[camera clicks]
Arrested on a drug charge in 2011,

returned to stand-up comedy in 2014,

[camera clicks]
charged with disorderly conduct in 2017.

Now back doing stand-up.

- Do we know what happened to the kid?

- Uh, Zack Jackson starred in
a string of straight-to-video teen movies:

including Kid Congressman, Teenstronaut,

and Hunchback of Notre Dame High.

I like this idea,
but are people still doing reboots?

- Let's see, Fuller House,
Saved by the Bell,

iCarly, Gilmore Girls, Gossip Girl.

- Party of Five, Party Down,
One Day at a Time.

- Boy Meets World,
How I Met Your Father,

The Wonder Years.

- Battlestar Galactica.

- Doogie Howser, The Odd Couple.

- Perry Mason, Hawaii Five-O,
Veronica Mars, Fresh Prince.

you wanted to discuss?

- [sighs] Okay, remember I told you
they were rebooting my old show?

- Mm-hm.
- I read the script.

- And?
- And I am shocked, but it's really good.

It's smart dialogue,
and nuanced relationships.

Ooh, and get this:

My character had
a dark secret the entire time.

- And it's still a comedy?
- Here's what's brilliant.

It is both the funniest thing
you've ever read,

and you won't laugh once.

- I thought you hated this show.

I mean, I've heard you blame it
for ruining your career.

- The show itself was bad...
but there's a new writer.

And so now there's none
of that old, hacky,

set-up/punchline, set-up/punchline thing.
That was all Gordon.

you have such a large penis,

why do you always
have to bring up Yale?

It shoots in L.A.,

so... you could always join me

after the play opens.
- You know I can't.

I mean, once this
fuckin' play opens,

I go straight into rehearsals
on that next cocksucking thing.

I've been directing way too much Mamet.

to New York on hiatus weeks.

- Hm. Ah, is she gonna be there?

- She?

Who?
- Really?

- You-- Who you mean? Bree?

- I'm sorry, is there another cast member
you dated for three years?

- Fair. Fair enough, um.

Yes, apparently, she will be there.

- Great, this is so good for you guys.

You can go hike around
the reservoir in your yoga pants-- - Oh boy. Now see.

Okay, yep, keep going.
- and then you can go get an acai bowl,

have a sound bath,

but that's probably before
the lymphatic massage.

- You get one more.

- I gave you notes to help you.

- Well, if I needed so much help,

how come I was nominated

for a People's Choice Award

- Because the people fell

- Or because you were overacting.

- How... dare you.

- You know what?

That wasn't fair.

I'm lashing out because
you were always right.

But now that I'm an adult...

Granted, he thought I was Damon Wayans.
[laughing]

- Yeah, I don't remember any of this.

- You were sick.
- You were at school. - We couldn't find you.

- [exhaling] Okay, fuck it.

BREE: Where are you going?
- Back to Gordon's to eat shit.

I screwed you guys out of this once,
I'm not gonna do it again.

- Yo, see you guys later.

Gotta go take this box to Hannah's house.

- Reed, wait!

[knocking at door]
ALL: Hi.

- What the f--
- Hi, um, I'm Bree.

We haven't met yet.
- Yeah, I'm a big fan.

- Oh... thanks, that's so sweet.
[laughing] What was I saying?

- What the hell are you guys doing here?

- Oh--
- Hannah, we need you to stay.

- Guys, I can't.

I-I would love to, but Gordon
wasn't supposed to be there, okay?

So, it's just-- It's a non-starter.

- I don't think you understand.
I need this.

I need somewhere to go during the day,
or bad shit finds me.

- Hannah, we all need this.

[sighing]

- No, no. I can't, I can't.
I can't work with him every day.

He's just-- He's so--
- Stubborn and he's narcissistic.

We know.
All right, we're tired of the drama.

I promise you, we will always,
always be in your corner.

- Yeah, and help you fight
his terrible ideas, like adding a kid.

- Or making me a grandma.

- You're saying--
Are you, Are you saying you'd support me?

- Absolutely.
- No matter what?

REED: No matt--
- Oh my god! Fuck that guy.

- I mean, that would infuriate him.

- Come on, Hannah...
We need you to Step--

- Oh, don't say it.
REED: Right.

HANNAH: Please kill me.
REED: Up.

- Ugh.

♪

- Okay.
[Bree gasping]

- Yes?
HANNAH: I'll do it.

[all exclaiming]
I'll try.

REED:
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

[laughing]
Oh, you're the best. Oh, thank you.

- And I-- You know, I got
a little ramped up there.

I promise you, Gordon,

he's not that bad
when you get to know him. - No.

CLAY: Yeah.
- Oh, I got to know him pretty well for about seven years

until he dropped me off
at ballet class one time

and he started flirting
with my super-skinny teacher.

And then he moved in with her
and her super creepy son, Seth,

and then he created a television show
all about his new step-family

that acted like
his daughter never existed.

- Um... are you telling us
that Gordon is your father?

- Yeah... but I guess my childhood
didn't give him enough material, right?

Maybe my scoliosis brace,
and my cystic acne,

and going to the father-daughter dance

with my mother's hairdresser
wasn't funny enough for him.

But we're not gonna let him
write me out this time.

- Oh shit.

- So, the big twist
at the end of the pilot--

- Dear Lord,
Lawrence's dark secret is you.

[Zack breathing heavily]
- I'm here.

What'd I miss?

[musical flourish]

[fanfare]

- I am focused,
I am on top of things--

MAN:
Bree, you missed your cue!

- Shit. This is your fault!

That's not the actress
playing your daughter, is it?

REED:
I wouldn't think so.

Her character description was
frazzled, unkempt, and zaftig.

- A special welcome to the newest member
of our cast, Timberly Fox.

Timberly made quite a splash
on a reality dating show called--

- Fuck Buddy Mountain.
GORDON: Fuck Buddy Mountain.

- Your mom still comes to set
with you every day.

ZACK: She's been coming
to set with me my whole life.

CLAY: Dude, that's creepy.
- Could you say something to my mom?

- Yeah, what the fuck.

ZACK'S MOM:
Come in!

[purring]
-Oh boy.

- What if Zack finds out?
- Finds what out?

- Uh, that I couldn't
talk to your mom yet.

- Too hard, huh?
- No, no, I wouldn't say that.

- Not that.

- Did you read the rewrite?
They added a scene.

We're in bed.
- Oh!

REED:
That's actually kind of racy

compared to how tame
we had to keep it on network.

- What is that?
- Nothing. It's nothing.

- Doesn't feel like nothing!

I think you're confused
because of our history

and I think you
still have feelings for me.

- I do not still have feelings for you.

I am in a committed relationship.

- Right, with "Nora" who's a "real person"
in "New York City."

- Well this can't be good.

- Guess what?
I'm on mushrooms.

- I'm coming to get you.
Tell me exactly what you see.

- When my eyes are open,
I see a fence.

When they're closed, dragons.

- Bree? [groans] Shit.

- Die, dragon!
- Whoa!

- You have this superpower, man.

You actually have the rare gift
of being fuckin' funny.

You could make millions of people laugh.

And to put that out into the world,

that is as good and honorable thing
as a man can do.

- Come on, guys, let's bring it in.
"Step Right Up" on three.

- No reason to do that.
- All right.

One, two, three, "Step Right Up"!

- The comedy cavalry has arrived.

- Good morning!
ALAN: Sorry we're late.

We've been wandering
in Palm Desert for 40 years.

- We don't need a bunch of dinosaurs
in the writer's room.

- It's so funny you say that.

Alan ran the last two seasons
of "Dinosaurs" on ABC.

- Yeah, again, wrote for giant puppets
is not the mic drop you think it is.
