1
00:01:13,203 --> 00:01:15,207
This sucks.

2
00:01:16,541 --> 00:01:18,880
This is just garbage.

3
00:01:20,241 --> 00:01:21,361
It's a bad story to begin with,

4
00:01:21,385 --> 00:01:23,929
and I'm a bad writer.
I don't know what made me think

5
00:01:23,953 --> 00:01:27,846
for five seconds I'd be able
to turn this into anything

6
00:01:27,870 --> 00:01:29,930
other than garbage.

7
00:01:33,099 --> 00:01:35,158
I'm a fraud. I know.

8
00:01:35,182 --> 00:01:37,732
Every writer thinks
they're a fraud. It's clich�.

9
00:01:37,756 --> 00:01:38,981
Some of us got to be right.

10
00:01:39,005 --> 00:01:41,816
Most of us, actually, have to be right,

11
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,167
statistically speaking.

12
00:01:44,191 --> 00:01:47,909
I mean, why do we act
like impostor syndrome

13
00:01:47,933 --> 00:01:49,389
means that you aren't an impostor?

14
00:01:49,413 --> 00:01:51,261
Just because you have Stockholm syndrome

15
00:01:51,285 --> 00:01:53,537
doesn't mean you're not in Sweden.

16
00:01:55,811 --> 00:01:57,499
I quit.

17
00:02:04,827 --> 00:02:05,840
Stupid.

18
00:02:05,864 --> 00:02:07,451
Stupid. Oh, yeah, great.

19
00:02:07,475 --> 00:02:09,793
Mushroom cloud. Not using that idea.

20
00:02:09,817 --> 00:02:12,456
Why would you? The whole story
is about the world blowing up,

21
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,807
so, obviously, don't show the
part where the world blows up.

22
00:02:15,831 --> 00:02:18,810
The most interesting part
of the entire idea,

23
00:02:18,834 --> 00:02:21,943
and John Genius...

24
00:02:21,967 --> 00:02:24,317
decides to leave it out.

25
00:02:26,537 --> 00:02:29,364
Super cool creative choice, Chayefsky.

26
00:02:30,019 --> 00:02:31,491
You nailed it.

27
00:02:33,618 --> 00:02:34,869
If I was smart,

28
00:02:34,893 --> 00:02:36,752
I would've started
the whole story with...

29
00:02:47,036 --> 00:02:48,864
That's pretty good.

30
00:02:50,909 --> 00:02:51,997
Yeah.

31
00:02:55,958 --> 00:02:59,503
"There has been a nuclear war.

32
00:02:59,527 --> 00:03:02,201
"The city is in ruins.

33
00:03:02,225 --> 00:03:04,508
"The air is poisoned.

34
00:03:04,532 --> 00:03:06,901
Billions are dead."

35
00:03:06,925 --> 00:03:09,077
Hey. Hey!

36
00:03:09,101 --> 00:03:11,210
I did it! I figured it out!

37
00:03:11,573 --> 00:03:13,169
Figured what out?

38
00:03:13,193 --> 00:03:14,930
The story!

39
00:03:14,954 --> 00:03:16,302
Oh.

40
00:03:16,326 --> 00:03:17,564
"Oh"?!

41
00:03:17,588 --> 00:03:20,001
This is huge. We got to...
we got to celebrate.

42
00:03:20,025 --> 00:03:21,089
Come on. Let's go out.

43
00:03:21,113 --> 00:03:23,377
I've been cooped up in here forev...

44
00:03:24,508 --> 00:03:28,512
Oh, no. Oh, no.

45
00:03:38,087 --> 00:03:40,587
We need to head to the shelter.

46
00:03:40,611 --> 00:03:43,484
The reapers will be out soon.

47
00:03:44,773 --> 00:03:46,816
It was just a story.

48
00:03:48,401 --> 00:03:50,578
It was just a story.

49
00:03:52,364 --> 00:03:55,036
Witness Adam Wegman,

50
00:03:55,325 --> 00:03:57,387
a writer who, up until tonight,

51
00:03:57,411 --> 00:03:59,345
has never paid much mind to the idea

52
00:03:59,369 --> 00:04:02,087
of an artist's social responsibility.

53
00:04:02,111 --> 00:04:05,585
He's about to learn that there's
more to art than entertainment.

54
00:04:06,115 --> 00:04:08,093
He's about to... You know what?

55
00:04:08,117 --> 00:04:10,661
I think we can beat this.

56
00:04:10,685 --> 00:04:12,402
- Um, is Sophie here?
- Cut.

57
00:04:12,426 --> 00:04:14,273
- And that's a cut.
- Sophie. Sorry, Owen.

58
00:04:14,297 --> 00:04:16,144
- No, no, no. Of course.
- Uh, sorry, guys.

59
00:04:16,168 --> 00:04:18,321
Hey, I'm cool. Your show, dude.

60
00:04:18,345 --> 00:04:20,635
But Betty is getting
pretty pissed at you.

61
00:04:20,660 --> 00:04:21,714
What?

62
00:04:21,738 --> 00:04:23,543
- What? No.
- He's playing.

63
00:04:23,567 --> 00:04:25,284
- You're playing.
- No. I'm not actually joking.

64
00:04:25,308 --> 00:04:26,329
- She's super pissed.
- Why?

65
00:04:26,353 --> 00:04:27,547
You're upset with me?

66
00:04:27,571 --> 00:04:28,634
You know, I've been meaning to tell you.

67
00:04:28,658 --> 00:04:29,941
You know, you've changed.

68
00:04:29,965 --> 00:04:30,985
- Oh, snap.
- Oh.

69
00:04:31,009 --> 00:04:31,986
You've changed, Betty.

70
00:04:32,010 --> 00:04:33,118
Am I part of the change?

71
00:04:33,142 --> 00:04:34,119
What happened to you?

72
00:04:34,143 --> 00:04:35,425
I mean, I...

73
00:04:35,449 --> 00:04:37,078
Look, I had, I had to, like, deliver

74
00:04:37,102 --> 00:04:38,079
a bunch of... Hey.

75
00:04:38,103 --> 00:04:39,080
What's up?

76
00:04:39,104 --> 00:04:40,343
Hey, Sophie. Um...

77
00:04:40,367 --> 00:04:41,854
- Uh, walk with me?
- Okay.

78
00:04:41,878 --> 00:04:44,695
So, I think we're not there
yet with the narration.

79
00:04:44,719 --> 00:04:46,262
Yeah, I... Uh, you know?

80
00:04:46,286 --> 00:04:47,698
...was actually thinking the same.

81
00:04:47,722 --> 00:04:49,613
Obviously, we want this
to be the best version

82
00:04:49,637 --> 00:04:51,267
of the best thing it can possibly be.

83
00:04:51,291 --> 00:04:52,572
- Yes.
- Um...

84
00:04:52,596 --> 00:04:54,574
is it a little too
on the nose, you think?

85
00:04:54,598 --> 00:04:56,359
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.
Thank you very much.

86
00:04:56,383 --> 00:04:58,361
- That's cool.
- Um, well, we could...

87
00:04:58,385 --> 00:05:00,276
could also just, like, approach it

88
00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:01,625
a little bit more
metaphorically, I guess.

89
00:05:01,649 --> 00:05:03,366
I don't know.

90
00:05:03,390 --> 00:05:05,150
Man, I think, like...

91
00:05:05,174 --> 00:05:07,152
I think we're just...
might be saying something

92
00:05:07,176 --> 00:05:08,980
we don't actually want to be saying,

93
00:05:09,004 --> 00:05:10,275
with the episode.

94
00:05:12,068 --> 00:05:14,202
Oh. Okay.

95
00:05:14,226 --> 00:05:17,380
Um, what do you mean?
Like what part exactly?

96
00:05:17,404 --> 00:05:19,576
The art versus entertainment stuff.

97
00:05:20,452 --> 00:05:22,428
Like, sort of, like,
just hit that softer?

98
00:05:22,452 --> 00:05:25,262
I'm just saying, like, why do
we need to make it an either-or?

99
00:05:26,916 --> 00:05:28,739
Oh. Okay. Um...

100
00:05:28,763 --> 00:05:30,462
Sorry. Um...

101
00:05:31,296 --> 00:05:34,048
But isn't that what the episode is about?

102
00:05:34,299 --> 00:05:35,398
Is it?

103
00:05:35,967 --> 00:05:37,574
Um...

104
00:05:37,598 --> 00:05:39,184
I mean, you wrote it.

105
00:05:39,208 --> 00:05:40,490
Oh, no, no.

106
00:05:40,514 --> 00:05:42,361
I mean, obviously,
I want you to be on board.

107
00:05:42,385 --> 00:05:43,825
Mm-hmm.

108
00:05:43,850 --> 00:05:45,408
Um, I guess I just
thought the whole point

109
00:05:45,432 --> 00:05:49,368
was sort of, like,
the slippery slope, right,

110
00:05:49,392 --> 00:05:51,022
from the path
from superhero movies or, like,

111
00:05:51,046 --> 00:05:54,330
stupid sci-fi crap to... idiocracy.

112
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:55,461
Huh.

113
00:05:55,485 --> 00:05:58,725
I mean, our show is sci-fi, right?

114
00:05:59,407 --> 00:06:01,772
Yeah, but it's The Twilight Zone.

115
00:06:02,118 --> 00:06:03,643
Mm-hmm.

116
00:06:03,667 --> 00:06:06,385
I mean, The Twilight Zone isn't
just monsters on a plane wing.

117
00:06:06,409 --> 00:06:08,256
- Right?
- Mm-hmm.

118
00:06:08,280 --> 00:06:10,563
If there's nothing being said
of importance,

119
00:06:10,587 --> 00:06:12,130
then it's just campfire stories.

120
00:06:12,154 --> 00:06:13,653
So you don't like campfire stories?

121
00:06:13,677 --> 00:06:16,299
No, I did when I was a little girl.

122
00:06:16,921 --> 00:06:18,397
Look, what Rod Serling did

123
00:06:18,421 --> 00:06:20,312
was, he took this silly genre kid stuff

124
00:06:20,336 --> 00:06:21,444
and he elevated it.

125
00:06:21,468 --> 00:06:22,749
He made art with it

126
00:06:22,773 --> 00:06:23,961
for grown-ups.

127
00:06:23,985 --> 00:06:25,491
And the reason he's in every episode...

128
00:06:25,515 --> 00:06:27,232
Well, until now, right?

129
00:06:27,256 --> 00:06:28,852
Until now, sure.

130
00:06:28,876 --> 00:06:30,453
Um, but the reason...

131
00:06:30,477 --> 00:06:31,454
Seth needs his chair.

132
00:06:31,478 --> 00:06:33,114
- Oh, okay. Sorry.
- Yeah.

133
00:06:33,138 --> 00:06:34,484
Um...

134
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,594
I just... I just remember,
when I was a little girl,

135
00:06:37,618 --> 00:06:40,031
I would watch the show
and I would think, "What is

136
00:06:40,055 --> 00:06:41,554
- The Twilight Zone?"
- Mm.

137
00:06:41,578 --> 00:06:45,167
You know? Like, when do we get
to The Twilight Zone?

138
00:06:45,191 --> 00:06:46,864
Oh... You know?

139
00:06:47,392 --> 00:06:48,848
That's deep.

140
00:06:48,873 --> 00:06:50,476
Well, okay, but I was a kid

141
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:52,522
and I didn't get
what was good about the show.

142
00:06:52,546 --> 00:06:55,046
Which is why Rod Serling had
to come into every episode,

143
00:06:55,070 --> 00:06:57,570
to remind us that The Twilight
Zone isn't this, like,

144
00:06:57,594 --> 00:07:00,094
sci-fi alternate dimension,
right? What's good

145
00:07:00,118 --> 00:07:02,337
about the show isn't the genre bullshit.

146
00:07:02,361 --> 00:07:04,229
- Mm-hmm.
- It's the message.

147
00:07:04,253 --> 00:07:06,884
I just think the-the meaning is there,

148
00:07:06,908 --> 00:07:09,365
with, like, the episode, you know?

149
00:07:09,389 --> 00:07:11,367
If you could just, like,
do a pass on the narration.

150
00:07:11,391 --> 00:07:12,498
Just make it simple.

151
00:07:12,522 --> 00:07:14,065
Take out some of the... all of, like,

152
00:07:14,089 --> 00:07:16,285
the art v. entertainment stuff.

153
00:07:16,309 --> 00:07:17,416
- Okay.
- Like this...

154
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,245
Witness Adam Weg...

155
00:07:20,269 --> 00:07:22,291
W-Wen-We... It's "Wegman,"

156
00:07:22,315 --> 00:07:23,466
and... Whatever.

157
00:07:24,033 --> 00:07:26,120
A writer who's

158
00:07:26,144 --> 00:07:28,471
I-in the middle of a...

159
00:07:28,872 --> 00:07:30,951
existential crisis.

160
00:07:30,975 --> 00:07:33,563
So just, you know, give me your version

161
00:07:33,587 --> 00:07:35,587
and I'll make it sound cool.

162
00:07:40,289 --> 00:07:42,006
Witness Adam Wegman,

163
00:07:42,030 --> 00:07:44,313
a man about to learn that between

164
00:07:44,337 --> 00:07:47,272
truth and fantasy
there is not a solid line,

165
00:07:47,296 --> 00:07:48,317
but a dotted one.

166
00:07:49,224 --> 00:07:51,233
Until tonight he lived in a world of...

167
00:07:53,998 --> 00:07:56,678
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

168
00:07:56,702 --> 00:08:01,373
Witness the power of art
to change the world...

169
00:08:01,397 --> 00:08:02,983
Shit.

170
00:08:04,182 --> 00:08:05,421
Witness the power of a story

171
00:08:05,445 --> 00:08:07,510
to change the world...

172
00:08:09,997 --> 00:08:13,453
Witness the power of a story
to write the world...

173
00:08:14,367 --> 00:08:17,128
...to right the world...

174
00:08:18,196 --> 00:08:19,696
Shit.

175
00:08:21,287 --> 00:08:23,003
Hey, Anna,

176
00:08:23,027 --> 00:08:24,527
I can't really talk right now.
It's not a good time.

177
00:08:24,551 --> 00:08:27,049
So you just straight up
don't respond to texts anymore?

178
00:08:27,073 --> 00:08:28,226
I'm really busy.

179
00:08:28,250 --> 00:08:30,359
- Right. Busy saving the world.
- Sophie. Is Sophie here?

180
00:08:30,383 --> 00:08:31,447
Wouldn't want
to use the wrong adjective...

181
00:08:31,471 --> 00:08:32,883
- we might lose Europe.
- Shit.

182
00:08:32,907 --> 00:08:35,015
Anna, I cannot have this
conversation right now, okay?

183
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:36,626
- I really need to go.
- Why do I even bother calling you?

184
00:08:36,650 --> 00:08:38,976
- Goodbye. I love you. Bye.
- Sophie...

185
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,717
Hey. Sorry.

186
00:08:40,741 --> 00:08:42,501
They're asking me when we
can get the new narration.

187
00:08:42,904 --> 00:08:44,982
Because Jordan's waiting.

188
00:08:45,006 --> 00:08:46,984
And he's, like, waiting.

189
00:08:47,008 --> 00:08:48,319
Okay. Um...

190
00:08:49,629 --> 00:08:51,336
Just, like, two minutes.
I need two minutes.

191
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,033
- Who should I send it to?
- We're actually gonna have to

192
00:08:53,057 --> 00:08:55,297
write it up on cue cards, 'cause
we're running short on time.

193
00:08:55,321 --> 00:08:56,626
Okay. I can do that.

194
00:09:05,134 --> 00:09:07,463
The reapers will be out soon.

195
00:09:08,930 --> 00:09:10,640
It was just a story.

196
00:09:12,250 --> 00:09:14,340
It was just a story.

197
00:09:16,104 --> 00:09:18,363
Picture, if you will, a storyteller

198
00:09:18,387 --> 00:09:21,497
finally getting to tell
the story of a lifetime,

199
00:09:21,859 --> 00:09:25,370
except the story is one
of inexplicable terror

200
00:09:25,394 --> 00:09:28,025
and the lifetime is her own.

201
00:09:30,618 --> 00:09:33,204
Her name is Sophie Gelson.

202
00:09:33,228 --> 00:09:34,466
She has little patience

203
00:09:34,490 --> 00:09:36,689
for childish diversions or daydreams.

204
00:09:36,713 --> 00:09:38,226
- Wasn't me.
- But she won't be able to tune out

205
00:09:38,251 --> 00:09:39,602
or turn away from what

206
00:09:39,626 --> 00:09:42,605
lurks, blurry, in the background

207
00:09:42,629 --> 00:09:44,520
of her own show.

208
00:09:45,008 --> 00:09:46,478
She is about to learn

209
00:09:46,502 --> 00:09:49,133
that when blurry comes to focus

210
00:09:49,157 --> 00:09:51,657
there can be no escape
from the fate laid out

211
00:09:51,681 --> 00:09:52,974
for her...

212
00:09:54,142 --> 00:09:55,618
in The Twilight Zone.

213
00:09:56,986 --> 00:09:58,185
Okay.

214
00:10:00,211 --> 00:10:02,189
No, I Di... uh, no.

215
00:10:02,213 --> 00:10:03,582
It honestly sounds like a better episode.

216
00:10:05,260 --> 00:10:08,350
Seriously, what's going on?

217
00:10:10,738 --> 00:10:12,765
You're traveling
through another dimension,

218
00:10:12,789 --> 00:10:16,160
a dimension not only of
sight and sound but of mind.

219
00:10:16,184 --> 00:10:19,381
It is the middle ground
between light and shadow,

220
00:10:19,405 --> 00:10:22,166
between science and superstition.

221
00:10:22,190 --> 00:10:24,603
And it lies between
the pit of one's fears

222
00:10:24,627 --> 00:10:26,799
and the summit of one's knowledge.

223
00:10:27,500 --> 00:10:30,653
You are now traveling through
a dimension of imagination.

224
00:10:30,677 --> 00:10:34,550
You've just crossed over
into The Twilight Zone.

Sorry.

227
00:10:44,691 --> 00:10:47,278
I'm... I'm fine. I'm
just gonna memorize it, so...

228
00:10:47,302 --> 00:10:50,455
if it's... whatever the thing
says is what I'm gonna say.

229
00:10:50,479 --> 00:10:52,326
Well, yeah,

230
00:10:52,350 --> 00:10:54,285
well, see, that's the...
that's where it...

231
00:10:54,309 --> 00:10:55,615
that's where it...

232
00:11:02,578 --> 00:11:04,253
Are you okay?

233
00:11:05,146 --> 00:11:06,123
Jordan.

234
00:11:06,147 --> 00:11:08,125
I did not...

235
00:11:08,149 --> 00:11:10,214
none of that is what I wrote.

236
00:11:10,238 --> 00:11:12,608
Pretty sure it sounded like your voice.

237
00:11:12,632 --> 00:11:14,523
I'm kidding. Of course. No, I know.

238
00:11:14,547 --> 00:11:15,698
I don't know what happened.

239
00:11:15,722 --> 00:11:17,134
The cue cards got messed up.

240
00:11:17,158 --> 00:11:18,614
I think somebody must have switched them.

241
00:11:18,638 --> 00:11:19,702
Somebody switched them.

242
00:11:19,726 --> 00:11:21,355
It's so weird, though. Right?

243
00:11:21,379 --> 00:11:23,227
Like, why would anybody do that?

244
00:11:23,251 --> 00:11:26,143
- Who would do that?
- It could be, like, a prank for...

245
00:11:26,167 --> 00:11:28,319
- blooper reel...
- Uh-huh. Yeah, well,

246
00:11:28,343 --> 00:11:30,364
- Sometimes that happens.
- that wasn't funny.

247
00:11:30,388 --> 00:11:32,410
Wait, a prank for a blooper reel

248
00:11:32,434 --> 00:11:33,498
that's not funny?

249
00:11:33,522 --> 00:11:35,152
No kidding.

250
00:11:35,176 --> 00:11:38,547
Can I have some of this?
Also, take that. Thank you.

251
00:11:38,571 --> 00:11:41,245
Well, I'm gonna figure out what happened.

252
00:11:41,269 --> 00:11:43,290
Mm. Don't. Don't sweat it.

253
00:11:43,314 --> 00:11:46,163
Honestly. Like, if you're
worried about anything,

254
00:11:46,187 --> 00:11:48,731
you should be worried
about the fact that you are

255
00:11:48,755 --> 00:11:51,385
apparently in an episode
of The Twilight Zone

256
00:11:51,409 --> 00:11:53,170
right now.

257
00:11:53,194 --> 00:11:55,302
It's not a bad episode idea, though.

258
00:11:55,326 --> 00:11:57,609
A writer who can't face her fears.

259
00:11:57,633 --> 00:11:59,698
- You think so?
- I love it. Yeah.

260
00:11:59,722 --> 00:12:01,136
Are you gonna follow me to the bathroom?

261
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,657
- Oh, no. No, no.
- Uh, do send me

262
00:12:03,681 --> 00:12:05,312
that narration, though.

263
00:12:05,336 --> 00:12:06,575
Your version, not the one...

264
00:12:06,599 --> 00:12:09,316
- by the demon or whatever.
- Okay, got it, J.P.

265
00:12:09,340 --> 00:12:10,820
- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.

266
00:12:16,610 --> 00:12:18,286
So, what was that?

267
00:12:18,310 --> 00:12:19,544
What was what?

268
00:12:20,079 --> 00:12:22,162
That stunt with the cue cards.

269
00:12:22,748 --> 00:12:24,912
Your guess is literally as good as mine.

270
00:12:24,936 --> 00:12:26,043
It wasn't me.

271
00:12:27,044 --> 00:12:28,379
It wasn't.

272
00:12:28,403 --> 00:12:30,617
Well, our director is asking
for an explanation.

273
00:12:30,641 --> 00:12:31,663
Okay.

274
00:12:31,688 --> 00:12:33,384
Because apparently now
we're taking a break,

275
00:12:33,408 --> 00:12:35,386
and we don't have time to take a break.

276
00:12:35,410 --> 00:12:37,606
A break means we're running into
lunch, which means we're gonna lose

277
00:12:37,630 --> 00:12:38,862
about an hour that we
cannot afford to lose.

278
00:12:38,887 --> 00:12:40,217
Amy, I promise you,

279
00:12:40,241 --> 00:12:42,741
I care about this show at
least as much as you do.

280
00:12:43,942 --> 00:12:45,235
Do you want me to talk to him?

281
00:12:45,259 --> 00:12:47,248
- I can do that right now, actually.
- I would not bother him

282
00:12:47,272 --> 00:12:48,573
unless I had a real good explanation

283
00:12:48,597 --> 00:12:49,879
as to what happened back there.

284
00:12:49,903 --> 00:12:52,577
And that background actor
in the library scene?

285
00:12:52,601 --> 00:12:54,662
- What background actor?
- Please,

286
00:12:54,686 --> 00:12:56,233
as if you weren't
explicitly referencing that

287
00:12:56,257 --> 00:12:57,713
in the little narration you wrote.

288
00:12:57,737 --> 00:12:59,802
"Lurks blurry in the
background"? Come on.

289
00:12:59,826 --> 00:13:01,673
I told you, I didn't write that.

290
00:13:01,697 --> 00:13:05,001
Well, all I know is, Owen is
definitely gonna want to know

291
00:13:05,025 --> 00:13:06,373
about that whole shitshow, too.

292
00:13:06,397 --> 00:13:07,592
What shitshow are we talking about?

293
00:13:07,616 --> 00:13:08,985
I literally have no idea...

294
00:13:09,009 --> 00:13:10,247
The blurry man.

295
00:13:10,271 --> 00:13:11,857
The blurry man in the background

296
00:13:11,881 --> 00:13:13,816
who somehow wound up
in every single take,

297
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,929
in the goddamn library scene?

298
00:13:25,721 --> 00:13:27,438
"...what lurks,

299
00:13:27,462 --> 00:13:29,396
"blurry...

300
00:13:29,420 --> 00:13:31,771
in the background."

301
00:13:34,195 --> 00:13:35,751
So, like...

302
00:13:35,775 --> 00:13:37,491
you're clearing your name, huh?

303
00:13:37,515 --> 00:13:39,015
Rooting out sabotage,

304
00:13:39,039 --> 00:13:40,756
saving the show? That's pretty exciting.

305
00:13:40,780 --> 00:13:42,845
It's not excitement I need.

306
00:13:42,869 --> 00:13:44,324
Okay.

307
00:13:44,348 --> 00:13:46,283
Here it is.

308
00:13:46,307 --> 00:13:48,633
Check this out.

309
00:13:48,657 --> 00:13:50,461
I thought I should let you know,

310
00:13:50,485 --> 00:13:52,332
there were some pages missing.

311
00:13:52,356 --> 00:13:54,465
Ma'am,
are you sure you checked this book out

312
00:13:54,489 --> 00:13:56,050
at this library?

313
00:13:56,839 --> 00:13:58,730
There. See?

314
00:13:58,754 --> 00:14:00,906
- Oh, my God.
- You should've seen Owen's face

315
00:14:00,930 --> 00:14:02,691
when he found out there were...

316
00:14:02,715 --> 00:14:04,780
no takes without this guy.

317
00:14:04,804 --> 00:14:06,956
- How did I not notice that?
- Right?

318
00:14:06,980 --> 00:14:08,653
Nobody remembers seeing this guy.

319
00:14:08,677 --> 00:14:09,915
Owen kept saying,

320
00:14:09,939 --> 00:14:12,439
"He wasn't there! He wasn't there!"

321
00:14:13,079 --> 00:14:16,008
I mean, background couldn't explain it.

322
00:14:16,032 --> 00:14:17,488
Did you do it?

323
00:14:17,512 --> 00:14:18,644
What?

324
00:14:19,819 --> 00:14:21,057
Why would you think that?

325
00:14:21,081 --> 00:14:22,667
Well, I mean,

326
00:14:22,691 --> 00:14:24,838
you were on set when we shot

327
00:14:24,862 --> 00:14:27,498
the first episode, so...

328
00:14:27,522 --> 00:14:30,327
I called up the first episode.

329
00:14:30,710 --> 00:14:33,809
Like, once you notice it,
you can't un-notice it.

330
00:14:33,833 --> 00:14:35,662
That's the same guy, right?

331
00:14:35,686 --> 00:14:37,010
What the hell?

332
00:14:38,259 --> 00:14:39,771
So, what's the deal?

333
00:14:39,795 --> 00:14:42,015
I have no idea what's going on.

334
00:14:45,496 --> 00:14:47,692
Okay, people, that is lunch.

335
00:14:47,716 --> 00:14:50,023
Back here in an hour.

336
00:14:56,029 --> 00:14:57,746
Hey. Sorry. Um,

337
00:14:57,770 --> 00:15:00,557
- do you know where Jordan is?
- Oh. Nobody can find him.

338
00:15:00,581 --> 00:15:02,402
- He's on set somewhere.
- What do you mean,

339
00:15:02,426 --> 00:15:03,839
"nobody can find him"?

340
00:15:03,863 --> 00:15:05,710
Owen was looking for him...
they said he was

341
00:15:05,734 --> 00:15:06,929
checking something out on set

342
00:15:06,953 --> 00:15:09,366
but couldn't figure out
where he was, so...

343
00:15:09,390 --> 00:15:12,021
Do you need me to, like,
call someone or help you find him...?

344
00:15:12,045 --> 00:15:13,849
Oh, no, no. It's okay.

345
00:15:13,873 --> 00:15:15,111
Um, they said

346
00:15:15,135 --> 00:15:16,547
he was on set?

347
00:15:16,571 --> 00:15:17,809
Definitely. Yeah.

348
00:15:17,833 --> 00:15:19,705
- Okay, thank you.
- Yeah.

349
00:15:32,413 --> 00:15:33,893
Jordan?

350
00:15:39,557 --> 00:15:41,080
Jordan?

351
00:15:47,602 --> 00:15:50,083
No one put that away?

352
00:15:56,295 --> 00:15:57,917
Hello?

353
00:16:06,708 --> 00:16:08,891
About to learn what?

354
00:16:12,686 --> 00:16:14,411
Hello?

355
00:16:18,234 --> 00:16:19,765
Who's there?

356
00:16:30,123 --> 00:16:32,473
Real creepy.

357
00:16:43,384 --> 00:16:45,157
Ha! Boo!

358
00:16:52,145 --> 00:16:54,558
Fine. Whatever.

359
00:16:56,105 --> 00:16:58,649
Guys, I'm serious.

360
00:16:59,316 --> 00:17:01,694
Can you put the light back on?

361
00:17:11,904 --> 00:17:15,144
Anna, hey, it's Sophie.

362
00:17:15,168 --> 00:17:17,973
Sorry to call you so late, but...

363
00:17:17,997 --> 00:17:20,129
something's going on.

364
00:17:27,702 --> 00:17:29,027
I'm being stalked or something.

365
00:17:29,051 --> 00:17:31,220
What? Where are you right now?

366
00:17:31,244 --> 00:17:32,901
If you're in trouble, do not mess around.

367
00:17:32,925 --> 00:17:34,990
I'm not. I'm at work.

368
00:17:35,014 --> 00:17:36,190
What?

369
00:17:36,214 --> 00:17:37,557
I just don't know...

370
00:17:37,842 --> 00:17:40,299
You do not fucking call me
and... what is wrong with you?

371
00:17:40,323 --> 00:17:42,276
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

372
00:17:43,065 --> 00:17:44,521
I've just...

373
00:17:44,904 --> 00:17:48,133
I've had a crazy day,
and I am freaked out.

374
00:17:48,449 --> 00:17:50,222
I can't find Jordan anywhere,

375
00:17:50,246 --> 00:17:53,423
and some dick is pulling
some kind of stupid bullshit.

376
00:17:56,470 --> 00:17:57,833
I'm sorry.

377
00:17:58,298 --> 00:18:02,128
I just needed a friendly voice
and just to get grounded again.

378
00:18:03,433 --> 00:18:06,282
Okay. What you need
is not a friendly voice.

379
00:18:06,306 --> 00:18:09,285
What you need is
to go to sleep for 20 hours.

380
00:18:09,309 --> 00:18:11,200
I know. It's not that.

381
00:18:11,224 --> 00:18:13,115
It's exhaustion.

382
00:18:13,139 --> 00:18:15,204
Yes, Anna, yeah, I get it,

383
00:18:15,228 --> 00:18:16,807
but something else is going on.

384
00:18:16,831 --> 00:18:17,934
Something weird is happening.

385
00:18:17,958 --> 00:18:19,382
What's weird is that you're eating

386
00:18:19,406 --> 00:18:20,818
and breathing this TV show

387
00:18:20,842 --> 00:18:23,212
like it's, I don't know, curing cancer.

388
00:18:23,236 --> 00:18:24,822
Maybe Jordan just went home,

389
00:18:24,846 --> 00:18:26,954
like a normal person does
at 2:00 in the morning,

390
00:18:26,978 --> 00:18:29,435
because normal people have
a life that they go home to.

391
00:18:29,459 --> 00:18:30,932
Okay, okay, okay.

392
00:18:30,956 --> 00:18:33,178
You're right, you're right, you're right.

393
00:18:33,202 --> 00:18:35,311
Okay? I hear you.

394
00:18:35,335 --> 00:18:37,008
I'm just saying, I just...

395
00:18:37,032 --> 00:18:38,318
Sophie...

396
00:18:39,469 --> 00:18:41,230
- Anna?
- Sophie...

397
00:18:41,254 --> 00:18:42,580
Anna.

398
00:18:42,604 --> 00:18:43,884
Hello?

399
00:18:43,908 --> 00:18:45,190
Can you hear me?

400
00:18:45,214 --> 00:18:47,250
Hello? Can you hear me?

401
00:18:56,051 --> 00:18:58,247
Anna?

402
00:18:58,271 --> 00:19:01,989
Anna. Anna.

403
00:19:02,013 --> 00:19:04,078
Anna.

404
00:19:04,102 --> 00:19:06,104
There's a guy.

405
00:19:14,287 --> 00:19:16,579
Did you get your footage?!

406
00:19:19,379 --> 00:19:22,271
It's a real clever bit: scare the writer.

407
00:19:22,751 --> 00:19:24,836
Great look, too, by the way.

408
00:19:24,860 --> 00:19:27,844
"Crew member terrorizes woman on set."

409
00:19:27,845 --> 00:19:30,127
How do you think that's gonna
play out on Deadline?

410
00:19:40,744 --> 00:19:42,139
Fuck this.

411
00:19:42,163 --> 00:19:43,773
Test me, motherfucker!

412
00:20:12,324 --> 00:20:14,389
Hello?

413
00:20:14,413 --> 00:20:15,999
Is there someone...?

414
00:20:37,088 --> 00:20:39,849
Okay, Sophie.

415
00:20:39,873 --> 00:20:41,222
It's a prank.

416
00:20:42,180 --> 00:20:44,625
It's a prank.

417
00:21:49,029 --> 00:21:50,607
Ow.

418
00:21:51,858 --> 00:21:53,444
Help!

419
00:21:54,653 --> 00:21:56,819
I'm on the street set!

420
00:22:05,263 --> 00:22:07,352
Help!

421
00:22:10,485 --> 00:22:12,114
Is there anybody?

422
00:22:13,619 --> 00:22:15,858
Help!

423
00:22:23,411 --> 00:22:24,850
Ow.

424
00:22:31,703 --> 00:22:33,900
What the hell?

425
00:22:40,199 --> 00:22:42,300
What are you showing me?

426
00:23:07,412 --> 00:23:08,917
What are you showing me?

427
00:23:08,941 --> 00:23:10,562
...to The Twilight Zone.

428
00:23:32,042 --> 00:23:33,627
Um...

429
00:23:34,395 --> 00:23:38,027
I get it. Jordan's putting you
up to this, right?

430
00:23:38,051 --> 00:23:39,883
Because it's real?

431
00:23:42,011 --> 00:23:45,097
Because horror is real?

432
00:23:45,624 --> 00:23:48,429
The genre stuff isn't just bullshit.

433
00:23:48,453 --> 00:23:50,605
People really do stalk each other.

434
00:23:50,629 --> 00:23:53,939
Put each other in... crazy,

435
00:23:55,024 --> 00:23:56,525
sadistic...

436
00:23:57,776 --> 00:24:00,571
fucking insane situations.

437
00:24:00,595 --> 00:24:02,486
You maniac!

438
00:24:02,510 --> 00:24:04,532
You think it's funny to scare people?

439
00:24:04,556 --> 00:24:06,142
Look at me!

440
00:24:06,166 --> 00:24:08,449
This isn't some fucking sketch!

441
00:24:08,473 --> 00:24:10,320
It's people's lives!

442
00:24:13,739 --> 00:24:16,457
I take it back.

443
00:24:16,481 --> 00:24:19,634
I... I take it... I take it back.

444
00:24:20,176 --> 00:24:22,158
It's brilliant.

445
00:24:22,182 --> 00:24:26,989
Oh, it's next-level horror
performance art.

446
00:24:27,013 --> 00:24:28,181
Ow!

447
00:24:29,494 --> 00:24:31,994
I-I never meant to question Jordan.

448
00:25:15,312 --> 00:25:16,772
It's not real.

449
00:25:17,689 --> 00:25:19,232
Yeah, it is.

450
00:25:21,415 --> 00:25:23,175
No, it's not.

451
00:25:23,199 --> 00:25:24,791
It's happening.

452
00:25:24,815 --> 00:25:27,628
It's crazy but it's happening.

453
00:25:27,652 --> 00:25:29,530
"Crazy" is a bad word.

454
00:25:29,554 --> 00:25:33,055
You... you can't use that anymore.

455
00:25:33,079 --> 00:25:35,457
It stigmatizes mental illness.

456
00:25:36,625 --> 00:25:39,757
You're scared but you haven't
lost your mind.

457
00:25:39,781 --> 00:25:42,064
You want to think you have
because that would be

458
00:25:42,088 --> 00:25:44,009
less scary than what's
actually happening.

459
00:25:44,033 --> 00:25:45,415
What's "actually happening"?

460
00:25:46,009 --> 00:25:48,117
Is it a ghost? Is that what's happening?

461
00:25:48,141 --> 00:25:49,811
Is it a demon?
'Cause that'd be ridiculous.

462
00:25:49,835 --> 00:25:52,248
Only because you're afraid
of what you can't comprehend.

463
00:25:52,272 --> 00:25:54,102
Afraid of what you can't control.

464
00:25:54,126 --> 00:25:55,272
Don't run from it.

465
00:25:55,296 --> 00:25:56,765
Don't try to fight it. Face it.

466
00:25:56,789 --> 00:25:58,167
Face what? It's not real.

467
00:25:58,191 --> 00:25:59,603
This is a nightmare.

468
00:25:59,627 --> 00:26:02,650
It is a nightmare, and it's real.

469
00:26:02,674 --> 00:26:04,782
You can't write your way out
of this, Sophie.

470
00:26:04,806 --> 00:26:06,741
- Just let it in.
- Jesus Christ.

471
00:26:06,765 --> 00:26:08,482
I've been working too much.

472
00:26:08,506 --> 00:26:11,398
I've been working too much.
I got to go to sleep.

473
00:26:11,422 --> 00:26:12,573
You've been asleep.

474
00:26:12,597 --> 00:26:14,139
You need to wake up and see.

475
00:26:14,163 --> 00:26:15,576
I had a psychotic break.

476
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,708
You haven't had a psychotic break.

477
00:26:17,732 --> 00:26:20,961
Then why am I talking to myself?!

478
00:26:27,786 --> 00:26:29,678
Hello?

479
00:26:33,139 --> 00:26:34,975
Hello.

480
00:26:42,371 --> 00:26:43,691
Oh, my God.

481
00:26:43,715 --> 00:26:45,170
What the fuck?

482
00:26:45,194 --> 00:26:47,762
This isn't real. This isn't real.

483
00:27:07,826 --> 00:27:09,368
It's not real.

484
00:27:10,021 --> 00:27:11,318
You're not real.

485
00:27:11,970 --> 00:27:13,677
None of this is real.

486
00:27:14,139 --> 00:27:16,725
You're not fucking real.

487
00:27:43,209 --> 00:27:44,665
Okay. Seth.

488
00:27:44,689 --> 00:27:47,406
Seth. Seth. Seth.

489
00:27:47,430 --> 00:27:49,670
Seth. Seth!

490
00:27:51,783 --> 00:27:54,573
Seth! Can you see him?

491
00:27:54,597 --> 00:27:57,432
Hello?! Oh, my God.

492
00:27:57,456 --> 00:27:58,679
Fuck, fuck.

493
00:27:58,703 --> 00:28:00,507
Betty, Betty, Betty, Betty, Betty.

494
00:28:00,531 --> 00:28:02,641
Oh, my God. Seth, don't you see him?

495
00:28:02,665 --> 00:28:04,481
Oh.

496
00:28:06,406 --> 00:28:07,731
Okay.

497
00:28:07,755 --> 00:28:08,863
Fuck.

498
00:28:17,591 --> 00:28:18,916
Oh!

499
00:28:27,470 --> 00:28:28,883
And action!

500
00:28:28,907 --> 00:28:31,233
I can't believe you slept with her.

501
00:28:31,257 --> 00:28:33,235
Hey, I only slept with her...

502
00:28:33,259 --> 00:28:35,237
- Help!
- because you were sleeping with him.

503
00:28:35,261 --> 00:28:37,239
Do you see him?! Please help me!

504
00:28:37,263 --> 00:28:38,507
And a cut.

505
00:28:38,531 --> 00:28:39,763
Help!

506
00:28:39,787 --> 00:28:41,833
Oh, help.

507
00:28:49,710 --> 00:28:52,950
Okay, I don't know what you are

508
00:28:52,974 --> 00:28:55,323
or what you want, but... I don't
know if you took Jordan...

509
00:29:08,295 --> 00:29:10,296
Sophie, stop.

510
00:29:12,515 --> 00:29:15,606
You can't run from this.

511
00:29:17,303 --> 00:29:19,306
You can't hide from it.

512
00:29:20,001 --> 00:29:24,503
It's not some campfire story
you can reason away.

513
00:29:24,527 --> 00:29:27,506
You have to be willing
to see what's there.

514
00:29:27,814 --> 00:29:29,508
Really there.

515
00:29:29,532 --> 00:29:31,423
Fuck.

516
00:29:31,447 --> 00:29:33,798
In the shadows.

517
00:29:35,669 --> 00:29:37,758
Okay.

518
00:29:55,515 --> 00:29:57,517
Okay, Blurry man.

519
00:30:00,263 --> 00:30:01,826
I'm ready.

520
00:30:05,185 --> 00:30:07,005
I'm ready to see.

521
00:30:21,019 --> 00:30:23,650
Sophie.

522
00:30:23,674 --> 00:30:25,564
Sophie?

523
00:30:25,588 --> 00:30:27,349
It's time to go outside.

524
00:30:27,373 --> 00:30:29,090
Sophie, all the other kids are out there.

525
00:30:29,114 --> 00:30:30,526
I don't want to.

526
00:30:30,550 --> 00:30:31,745
Babe, come on.

527
00:30:31,769 --> 00:30:33,355
Let her watch the show.

528
00:30:33,379 --> 00:30:34,443
It's just make-believe stories.

529
00:30:34,467 --> 00:30:35,966
Helen!

530
00:30:35,990 --> 00:30:38,534
She needs to get out in the
real world with real people.

531
00:30:38,558 --> 00:30:39,840
Where are you?

532
00:30:39,864 --> 00:30:41,668
She could do both.

533
00:30:41,692 --> 00:30:43,265
Right, Soph?

534
00:30:43,868 --> 00:30:45,392
Sophie?

535
00:30:46,087 --> 00:30:47,852
Soph?

536
00:31:00,449 --> 00:31:02,166
Uh, we don't have a lot of time.

537
00:31:02,190 --> 00:31:04,386
Maybe time for two more setups,
but if you're happy, I'm happy.

538
00:31:04,410 --> 00:31:08,390
I mean, I'm kind of happy,
but I mean, I got... I need words.

539
00:31:08,873 --> 00:31:10,392
Jordan.

540
00:31:10,917 --> 00:31:12,742
Sophie.

541
00:31:12,766 --> 00:31:14,439
I have the new narration.

542
00:31:14,463 --> 00:31:16,877
You rewrote it. Good.

543
00:31:16,901 --> 00:31:20,010
"What do we do when our world
is turned upside down?"

544
00:31:21,688 --> 00:31:23,344
"Just awoken to the fact..."

545
00:31:23,368 --> 00:31:24,711
This is good.

546
00:31:24,735 --> 00:31:26,103
This is very good.

547
00:31:26,127 --> 00:31:27,801
"Closing our eyes instead

548
00:31:27,825 --> 00:31:29,759
of opening them." Mmm.

549
00:31:29,783 --> 00:31:32,762
Yes. Mmm!

550
00:31:32,786 --> 00:31:36,026
Hey, this is good.

551
00:31:36,050 --> 00:31:37,419
- I love it.
- All right. Good to go?

552
00:31:37,443 --> 00:31:39,160
Yes. Let's go, let's go.

553
00:31:40,028 --> 00:31:41,208
Fire.

554
00:31:41,232 --> 00:31:43,512
- It's dope.
- Thanks, J.

555
00:31:43,536 --> 00:31:45,993
Thank you. Thank you. You nailed it.

556
00:31:46,017 --> 00:31:47,472
You're sure you're good?

557
00:31:47,496 --> 00:31:50,911
Ah, Seth. Why...? Just... no... yup.

558
00:31:50,935 --> 00:31:52,826
- Let's go while it's fresh.
- Yes.

559
00:31:52,850 --> 00:31:55,611
You-You're the one that's
gonna have to be here longer.

560
00:31:55,635 --> 00:31:56,960
Take more time.

561
00:31:56,984 --> 00:31:59,528
Oh, I... Yes, I'm ready.

562
00:31:59,552 --> 00:32:01,989
Did you think it was over?

563
00:32:03,121 --> 00:32:05,123
Did you, Sophie?

564
00:32:06,994 --> 00:32:08,996
There's more to see.

565
00:34:05,286 --> 00:34:07,506
What did I do wrong?

566
00:34:08,979 --> 00:34:10,683
I did everything I could.

567
00:34:12,223 --> 00:34:14,252
Did... did I learn the wrong lesson?

568
00:34:18,402 --> 00:34:20,404
What was I supposed to do?

569
00:34:22,102 --> 00:34:23,693
Hello?

570
00:34:38,124 --> 00:34:39,626
I get it.

571
00:34:42,758 --> 00:34:44,760
This is the end.

572
00:34:47,111 --> 00:34:48,343
The end...

573
00:34:49,761 --> 00:34:51,245
of the episode.

574
00:34:53,247 --> 00:34:56,434
Some cruel twist.

575
00:34:58,774 --> 00:35:01,255
The ironic fate.

576
00:35:04,067 --> 00:35:05,651
It doesn't matter...

577
00:35:10,090 --> 00:35:12,092
...what I do.

578
00:35:21,232 --> 00:35:23,127
None of it's enough.

579
00:35:42,818 --> 00:35:44,190
It's you?

580
00:35:44,820 --> 00:35:47,886
My God.

581
00:35:47,910 --> 00:35:50,019
I take it I have your attention.

582
00:35:50,043 --> 00:35:51,489
Good.

583
00:35:51,914 --> 00:35:53,892
There's a lot to explain.

584
00:35:53,916 --> 00:35:56,006
Wait.

585
00:35:57,579 --> 00:35:59,009
Where is...?

586
00:36:04,362 --> 00:36:06,504
What is this place?

587
00:36:07,060 --> 00:36:10,083
I think you know where we are.

588
00:36:10,842 --> 00:36:12,824
It's where you belong.

589
00:36:12,848 --> 00:36:15,088
You're ready now, Sophie.

590
00:36:15,555 --> 00:36:17,679
We've got a lot of work to do.

591
00:36:21,857 --> 00:36:25,272
What do we when our world
is turned upside down?

592
00:36:25,296 --> 00:36:29,711
When everything we thought
to be true is ripped away,

593
00:36:29,735 --> 00:36:33,031
and we're forced to face a new reality?

594
00:36:33,739 --> 00:36:36,283
Sophie Gelson has just awoken to the fact

595
00:36:36,307 --> 00:36:39,155
that when we put away childish things,

596
00:36:39,179 --> 00:36:44,160
we may be closing our eyes
instead of opening them.

597
00:36:44,184 --> 00:36:48,382
And that perhaps our only hope
is to face all reality,

598
00:36:48,406 --> 00:36:50,166
a multitude of truths,

599
00:36:50,190 --> 00:36:52,446
not shrinking from that vital, arrogant,

600
00:36:52,470 --> 00:36:55,867
fatal, dominant "X" beyond imagination,

601
00:36:55,891 --> 00:36:57,869
but to embrace it.

602
00:36:57,893 --> 00:37:00,394
To open ourselves to the unknown,

603
00:37:00,418 --> 00:37:02,602
not the end of the story

604
00:37:03,203 --> 00:37:04,937
but a new beginning...

605
00:37:05,901 --> 00:37:07,947
for The Twilight Zone.
