MILES:
Previously on Get Shorty...

We need Bob Grace
to sign off on our budget,
or we don't move forward.

(GRUNTS)

I work for serious people,
Bob.

-Nevada?
-APRIL: Where we're shooting.

And Rick and Amara
got us a deal on local crew.

So all that money goes
to the screen!

That's fucking brilliant.

Bigger budget.
You could lose money.

I don't lose money.

WARE:
Amara de Escalones runs
the southern Nevada branch

of Los Chapulines cartel.

BUCHHOLZ: Amara is currently
expanding her territory

to northern
and northwestern Nevada.

WARE: This was
a business partner of Amara's.

This was a lover. Lover.
Lover.

MAX:
Forgive me, my lord.

Lady Margaret and I have been
acquainted since our infancy.

I have long
considered her a friend.

Some say you consider her
more than that.

Still others hint at a history
of impropriety.

On your part and hers.

The lady's virtue
is beyond measure.

Is it?

I've taken the measure
of many ladies' virtue
and come up short.

I'm quite sure you do not
impugn the character

of your soon-to-be-wife
in my presence.

And if I would?

Oh, I would be forced
to correct you, sir.

BOTH: Oh, my lady.

Captain. I'd not expected
you back in Staffordshire

for at least
another fortnight.

There's got to be
a better way of saying that.

I mean, it's just a bunch
of words, isn't it?

Words... Cut! Cut!
Hold your positions everybody.

FIRST AD: Don't break up,
people, we'll go right away.

HAFDIS: Not again.

Well, I thought
it played out pretty nicely.

MAX: As did I.

Until I started
vomiting narrative.

Well, we did rehearse this
many times.

BECCA:
It's not working.

-Another line?
-Sounds like it.

"Fortnight" doesn't
roll off the tongue.

Yesterday, she wouldn't
say "agreeable."

Okay, just
give her a line, huh.

Let's get the scene done.
We're already a day behind.

LOUIS: I'm on it.
MILES: Just give us
a minute, yeah?

(DIALING)

(LINE RINGING)

HENRY: (OVER PHONE)
Hello?

Hey, pal. I just need a real
quick line for Lady Margaret.

I'm still at work.

LOUIS: Okay, it's the scene
where they're in the garden

there's, uh, Felton and the...
Uh, the other guy,

-the Sheridan...
-41B. 41B.

It's, it's scene, yeah, scene,
scene 41B.

HENRY: 41B.

Captain,
I'd not expected you back in.

(OVER PHONE)
What if she just says,

"My lord," and we don't know
which guy she's talking to.

Do we not need
all the other stuff?

What about the Staffordshire
and all that shit?

HENRY: This way
she's protecting herself.

Not showing her cards.

-Yeah.
-Let's try it.

Thanks, pal.

Ed, why they waiting?

Oh, new line for Becca.

Told you she was no good.

Yeah, you did.

You come to my room tonight.

Yeah, I'm...
I mean, I wanna go.

It's just the first few days,
it's always crazy.

It's been a few days.

Now, you come to my room.

All you have to do is
to say "my lord."

-My lord.
-Yeah.

(MILES GRUNTS)

Uh, you're, uh,
protecting your cards.

-My cards?
-HAFDIS: Yeah.

So, you come out
top of the stairs,

exactly like before,
but "My lord."

-BECCA: Okay.
-Call it.

Places please, everyone.

MAN: Okay, settle down!

HAFDIS: Listen up,
we're gonna pick it up from,

uh, Sheridan's line...

"If I want..."

FIRST AD:
Picture's up. Roll sound.

HAFDIS: Just before
Margaret's entrance.

Okay, let's go.

2ND ASSISTANT CAMERA:
Baker 41,
take eight. Pick up.

-(NATHAN GRUNTS)
-HAFDIS: Okay, action!

MAX: I'm quite sure you would
not impugn the character

of your soon-to-be-wife
in my presence.

And if I would?

I would be forced
to correct you, sir.

MAX: Oh, my lady.

My lord...

Fuck!

-(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
-MAN: Hold it down.

-(LOUIS GRUNTING)
-MILES: Jesus Christ!

LOUIS:
That came out of nowhere.

MILES:
Oh, fuck off!

Shit! (GRUNTS)

My aunt makes these
strawberry lemon smoothies

with like, cayenne pepper
and shit. (SCOFFS)

Bro, I can drink
those all day. (CHUCKLES)

Yago, right?

J.J.

Okay. I hear you up here
making a movie, man.

-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah.

Where'd you hear that?

You know.

Whatever you kicked up
to Josias, you pay Amara, now.

That ring a bell?

Oh, you thought
because we're down south,

you can jack a warehouse
and we're not gonna know.

We been
straight up with you, man.

"Humble Chef
Mini Food Processor."

With the pasta press
and the, uh...

And a juicer attachment.

And the juicer. (CHUCKLES)

All this come together, or
you sell this shit separate?

-It's all together, man.
-YAGO: Hmm.

Tia would like one of these,
don't you think?

Risa, too. Hmm.

(CLICKS TONGUE)
You mind if I take a few?

Yo, don't fuck with that.
Don't fuck with it.

(CHUCKLES)

(CLICKS TONGUE)

Maybe I plug this in,

and put the juicer
in your ass.

Grab one.

-You, too.
-BLIZ: No. I'm good, bro.

Fucking take one.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Need this?

(CLEARS THROAT)
Mmm, no.

No caffeine, remember?

It's milk.

Dairy hurts my stomach.

I don't know why
I told you that. (SIGHS)

I should get back to set.

You have those
nut-free granola bars?

Yeah.

I mean, it's not just
that she won't follow
the bloody script,

I could live with that.
But it's that even when
she does, she's shite!

Yeah. Yeah, I mean it's weird.

She was so good
in that other movie.

-The New Zealand prostitute.
-(GRUNTS) That was different.

If she just would
listen to Hafdis...

Fat fucking chance.

Excuse me?
Is it reasonable to ask

why the crafty and transpo
guys are packing heat?

-Which ones?
-All the guys Amara
brought on.

Look! See?

-Well, you know, Nevada...
-MILES: Oh, yeah.

It's an open-carry state,

so that's just
part of the culture.

Brandon will freak out
if he sees this.
Liability issues alone...

Uh, guys, I'm gonna
have a little chat
with Miss Morgan, all right?

Please, be my guest.

It's all right. It's fine.

-No, it's not.
-Yeah. I wish I had a gun.

Dad, look.
It's awesome, right?

Yeah! Looks good.

Uh, shouldn't
you be in costume?

Yeah, very funny.

You think it's too much blush?

-Hey, Annette.
-ANNETTE: Yeah?

Could you tone down
the blush a bit?

Step back in the trailer
there, sweetheart.

-She wouldn't eat breakfast.
-No, she's just nervous.

I'll get her a yogurt
or something.
She's almost late.

Katie, you said
she'd be on time.

This is my fault? You sent
her back in for makeup.

You wanted less blush.

-(SCOFFS AND CHUCKLES)
-Fuck!

-(CHUCKLES) It's fine.
-Great.

It's fine. I'll have
the PA bring her to set.

I... I didn't
sleep last night.

I'm more nervous than she is.

She's gonna be great, okay?

Wait, where are you going?

I... I gotta
smooth something over.
I'll see you in a bit.

-(KNOCK AT DOOR)
-BECCA: Come in.

(DOOR OPENS)

MILES: Hello.

-Hi!
-You okay?

Yeah. The wind blew
dust in my eye.

Actually, can you, um,
can you see if there's
anything still in there?

Um...

(CHUCKLES) You're
not gonna see anything
from there, silly.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Uh...

What is that?
Is that the inside
of your skull?

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

You're funny.

Uh, I just wanted to see
how you were settling in?

Are you getting on okay
with the other actors?

Yeah. I thought Max Kisbye
would be more fun,
but he's in bed by 9:00.

Oh! Well, I'll fire him
and find an actor
who likes to party.

(CHUCKLES)

I saw your wife
with her luggage this morning.

Is she heading back to L.A.?

She is, yeah.

Well, if you get bored,
maybe we could find
something fun to do.

-I'll bet we could.
-(CHUCKLES)

-About that scene today.
-Yeah?

-You're doing lovely work.
-Thank you.

I'm not worried
about you at all.

But sometimes,
it feels like everyone's in
a different movie, you know?

-That's not good.
-No.

I had a thought, though.

I wonder if everyone just did
what was in the script

and listened to the director,
would it feel like
a more complete piece?

(CHUCKLES)

I'm so excited
to be playing Margaret,

-maybe I get carried away.
-(GRUNTS)

But I know that
this is a collaboration.

So if I get out of line,

just look me in the eye

and say, "Becca."

And I will snap out of it.

Becca.

Your wish is my command.

Well, that sounds dangerous.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

My daughter's
about to do a scene.

(SIGHS) You should go.

Yeah.

(CHUCKLES)

I'll see you on set.

Not if I see you first.

(CHUCKLES) Good one.

(CHUCKLES)

Hope there's
not a long line at catering.

You know, they keep saying
that I could cut
in front of the extras,

but I just don't wanna
act all entitled.

It's just, they...
They run out of some

of the entrees pretty fast,
you know.

(BABBLING)

(GRUNTING)

God damn it...

Whoo! (CHUCKLES)
We pop a tire?

-(GUNSHOTS)
-Oh, my...

(GRUNTS)

(YELLS) It's hot! Hot! Hot!

(NATHAN SHRIEKS)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

-Thank you.
-MAN 1: Picture's up.

RICK: Okay, here we go.

WOMAN: Roll sound.

MAN: Nineteen baker, take one.
A and B mark.

MAN 2: Camera speed.

WOMAN 2: Set.

Ready, and action!

They said you'd gone.

Kitty, might I ask you
to deliver a letter
before I leave?

To Lady Margaret?

Aye, yes.

Is it a secret letter?

MAX: That will depend
on the lady's response.

EMMA: Let me read it.

Got a problem.

MAX: Will you simply hold it
to the light of the candle?

EMMA: I would steam it
open with a kettle.
So as not to burn it.

MAX: Well, I'll
save you the trouble.

It's a declaration of sorts.

Of my great
affections for her.

Course I know that.

HAFDIS: And, cut!

MAX: That was really nice.
Well done.
EMMA: Thank you.

-HAFDIS: Let's do that again.
-(KATIE CHUCKLES)

You notice my daughter's
in that fucking scene?

(MUTTERS)

WOMAN 3: Oh, do we have
a PA with this on his account?

I'll be right back.

You're leaving?

I... I won't miss it.
I'm just gonna watch it
from another monitor.

Christ.

MILES: What's his name?
ED: Big Mike.

Well, were they
shooting at Mike,
or were they shooting at us?

Anyone go check?

Or is there a sniper behind
a fucking sand dune somewhere,
gonna keep firing shots?

We got guys clearing the area.

Witnesses?

Actor was in the van
when it happened.
Lord Sheridan?

Oh, fucking Nathan.

We can't have Big Mike
just bleeding out here
in broad daylight.

Stick him into
the producer's trailer.

I'm gonna go
and talk to the Lord.

LOUIS: All right, Big Mike,
you're gonna live,
but this is gonna hurt.

(GRUNTS) Come on, Ed.

(GRUNTS)

(SHUDDERS)

-(KNOCK AT DOOR)
-Yeah?

(DOOR OPENS)

Bit of excitement, huh?

That was totally crazy.

I mean, what the hell?
Someone was shooting at us.

Shooting at you?
Why would anyone do that?

I don't know why.
But, like...

No, no, no. (CHUCKLES)
That's funny. Sit down.

(NATHAN GRUNTS)

No, man. We're using
historical muskets
for the battle sequence.

Oh, wait till you see them,
they're beautiful.

And the guys were doing
a test in the desert

and they didn't see
the van coming until...

-(IMITATES SHOOTING SOUNDS)
-No way.

MILES: Yeah.

Oh, the special effects
guy feels terrible.

But the driver's
gonna be fine,

he's on his way
to the hospital
to have a few stitches.

Good. 'Cause he's
a really nice guy, too.

Should...

-Should we send him a card?
-Huh...

I think it's probably better
if we just keep it
between ourselves.

Mmm-hmm. (SIGHS)

Insurers can get a bit jumpy.

It'd be terrible if they
shut the movie down and you
couldn't play this great part.

-Could that happen?
-Not if we keep it quiet.

Whoa! (EXHALES DEEPLY)

Did you get lunch,
by the way?

No, no, not yet.

The guy was driving me
to catering when he
got hit by a bullet.

MILES: Oh.

Why don't you run
some of your lines,

and I'll have
a PA bring you some food.

-Okay.
-I hear it's steak day.

(CHUCKLES)
Steak, that sounds awesome.
I love steak.

(SIGHS)

Hey, why did
the van driver shoot back?

What's that?

The van got hit,
and he pulled out a gun
and was like, bang, bang!

Ex-marine, I heard.

Probably a bit confused
by all the fire.

Also, Nevada's
an open-carry state,

so it's part
of the culture, isn't it?

Right.

You're doing a great job
on the movie.

Everybody's talking about you.

-Really?
-Yeah.

Thanks. Um,
I mean it feels...

I'll let you
keep working on it.

Okay.

(NATHAN SIGHS)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

AMARA:
You got somebody angry at you?

I don't think so.

(DOOR OPENS)

MILES: How long till we can
get him out of here?

Guy's coming to patch him up,
then we'll move him.

Want to fill me in on
why people are shooting at us?

Someone don't like your movie.

I only ask 'cause I'm trying
to protect Amara's investment

and I didn't factor
in the possibility
of fucking snipers.

You're the reason
why we're out here
sitting like ducks, bitch!

-AMARA: Callate.
-Bullshit.

Josias had friends
and family up around here.

They weren't happy
about what happened
at Indian Springs.

Went to make a collection,
they were gonna jump my ass.

So, in hindsight, maybe
not the best idea to film here

if we knew it was
gonna be a war zone.

Thought it was under control.

When you say
"friends and family
of Josias", do, uh...

Do we have actual names?

No. And are they targeting
the movie, do you think?

'Cause I got
the head of the studio
coming tomorrow.

It'd be lovely if he
didn't notice the crew

was full of
fucking bullet holes.

Can you have your guys keep
watch while we're filming?

Also at the production office
and the hotel?

Oh, so you're gonna tell her
what to do now?

I take care of it.

Gracias.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hey, can't go in there.

Uh, it's a producer's
trailer.

Here, remember me?
Producer.

Can't go in there right now.

I gotta piss like a fucking
racehorse here.

That honey wagon's
all the way down at...

Jesus Christ!

What happened to him?

Nothing happened to anybody.

Right.

EMMA: Your letter will be
most appreciated.

Well, go. Quickly.
Before the cook sees you.

-Go.
-(EMMA CHUCKLES)

-Cut!
-Cutting.

MAN: Cut!

-Think we got it.
-(CHUCKLES) Yeah.

WOMAN:
All right, moving on.

That's a wrap on Emma
for today, everybody.

(APPLAUSE)

(CHUCKLES)

HAFDIS: Good job, Emma.

Where did you learn
to do that?

-Was I okay?
-Oh, you were wonderful.

EMMA:
It all went by so fast.

Did you see it?

Oh, was that you up there?
I was checking football scores
on my phone.

You were amazing.
Oh my God! So much sparkle.

She can have champagne, right?

(EMMA AND KATIE CHUCKLE)

-Did you enjoy it?
-Yeah.

MILES:
You made it look so easy.

Well, the first time
I was trying to
remember lines.

But the second time,
it was like I was actually
talking. (CHUCKLES)

Oh, and I had to keep
reminding myself

that was our little
girl up there.

She's dressed up
and talking funny,
but that's her.

(KATIE CHUCKLES)

EMMA: I'm glad I have another
scene next week.

-Hold on, hold on, hold on.
-Don't want it to be over.

Let me get the door.

EMMA: Thanks, Dad.

MILES: (SIGHS) Well done, you.

(EMMA CHUCKLES)

-Safe flight.
-(SIGHS) Call you tonight.

Cool.

My interview's
at four tomorrow.
With Doctor Seu...

Doctor Seuss!
Yes, I remember.

Can't believe we'll be
in our new place without you.

But have
a fantastic week of filming.

-I love you.
-And I love you, too.

(KISSES)

(KATIE SIGHS)

Well done, Shorty.

(ENGINE STARTS)

Two steps this way,
would be easier for lights.

(SPITTING)

Let's continue.

You are a scoundrel, sir.

One who is to share a bed
with you tomorrow.

And grab her arm
and kiss her.

No, but that's
what I'm saying!

I don't let him
actually kiss me.

I mean, why would I do that?

It's the point
of the whole scene.

You see, it says here,

"He kisses her." Then you
have a line that says,

"If you do that again,
I shall scream."

Yeah, but I don't let him,
I pull away, right?

What if I didn't grab you,

-would that help? Oh.
-Can I talk to the director?

Okay. (GRUNTS)

If you don't mind,
the whole idea
with this movie...

-Mmm-hmm.
-...it's a period piece,

-right?
-Right. Mmm-hmm.

Back then, women
didn't have much power.

And that's your character's
predicament.

-You want to save your family.
-Mmm-hmm.

-That's the tragedy.
-Okay.

Yeah, got it. It's just...

That's not a story
that interests me.

Well, now why the hell
did you take this part?

You didn't hire me
to just read what's
on the bloody page, okay?

I am trying to inject life
into this thing.

If he doesn't kiss her,
the scene doesn't
make much sense.

-Please, everybody jump in.
-MILES: Okay.

Anyone else want
to share thoughts, yeah?

Can I just say one thing?
Becca...

Jesus Christ, you can't
just touch me like that.

-What?
-That is totally
inappropriate.

-There was no touching.
-Everyone saw you.

Well, no, he didn't mean it
that way.

Now you're both
ganging up on me.

MILES: Oh, for fuck's sake!

I don't feel safe.

You can just shoot
this fucking scene without me.

WOMAN: Thank you, everyone.
Let's take five.

HAFDIS:
Yes, take five!

MAN: Yeah, take five,
everyone.
Let's take a five.

Please tell me
she's not filing
a sexual harassment claim.

There was no touching.
Not in the way that she means.

Oh, this, this could have been
the best movie I ever made,

and she just
destroys everything.

Maybe when it's cut together.

No, are you watching
the same dailies as us?

-She's a train wreck.
-(APRIL GRUNTS SOFTLY)

Can we not just...

Can we get somebody else?

Yeah, what about, uh,
Carey Mulligan?

I know her manager.
She's in my trampoline class.

Okay, are we forgetting
that Becca's pay-or-play?

Even if we fire her,
we gotta pay her full quote.

There's no money
for anybody else,

unless Brandon
wants to pay extra.

That's not gonna happen.

So, we're just gonna flush
the movie down the toilet?

Now this is the real tragedy.
(GRUNTS)

You know everybody up north.

Well, I mean,
I know people. (CHUCKLES)

So tell me who shoot at us.

I ain't heard nothing, yet.
But you can't hide
for long, out here,

so I'll get a name.

And I swear on a Bible,
when I know, you'll know.

You know, there's times
I thought what Josias'
doing ain't right.

Like when he leaned on you?

Then I heard he was gone,

and I thought,
hey, amigo had it coming.

That's what you thought.

You're the one
running things now.

I'm just glad
we got to do a face-to-face.

All of us. (CHUCKLES)

Hmm.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

So where's the movie happen?

Set's over here.

Very cool. What's it about?

It's about medieval times.

-Like dragons and shit?
-No, no, no.

It's more like "my lord."

Yeah. Okay. (CHUCKLES)

Yeah, like, "You must
marry Lord Sheridan,"

and some bitch is in love
with some dude and...

That kind of shit.

That's what makes
this shit real.

All those details.

YAGO: Yeah.

(AMARA SIGHS)

(SIGHS) Crazy day.

(SIGHS) Becca walking out,
Hafdis losing it.

We'll work it out,
I just mean...

(GRUNTS)
My head is still there.

It's still in production.

(SIGHS) It's got
nothing to do with you.

Oh, no, oh, no,
you're a very sexy woman.

You just need to relax.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

See? That's nice.

-Uh-huh.
-Mmm-hmm.

RICK: Yeah.

(GRUNTS)

-RICK: That feels good.
-Mmm-hmm.

(SIGHS)

AMARA: Mmm-hmm.

You know what, I...
I don't think that my head...

I just...

Ah, what you're doing,
uh, that's great.

That feels very nice,
it's just...

My head is, it's still...

Your head is in production.

Yeah.

We got production for a month.

Yeah, but it's gonna
get much easier.

It's always crazy
in the beginning.

(GRUNTS)

"If I'm acting out,
just look me in the eye
and say my name."

That's what she told me.

Why did I believe her?

When she's on screen,
I never fucking believe her.

How many guys does Amara
have watching the hotel?

I mean, not that it matters,
'cause if that sniper,

if he's got a high-powered
long-range scope...

And then if I fire her,
we still have to pay her!

What kind of
business model is that?

I'm talking
about us getting shot,

and you're worried
about some actress.

I'd rather take a bullet.

I would rather take a bullet
than watch Becca Morgan
butcher another fucking scene.

LOUIS: Well, tough,
we can't get rid of her.

Well, I mean, we could...

Could get rid of her. Just...

You don't usually
suggest that.

MILES: I know.

And I hate to say it
but that is a very bad idea.

In this situation.

-Becca's famous.
-Yeah.

The bad publicity would
probably shut the whole
movie down.

We do not want to
go down that road.

Definitely not.

(SIGHS)

But if we looked down
that road for a second...

Yeah?

What if she ran off?

She went missing.

She had a little accident.

That's the way to go.

The cliffs that we drive past
on the way to the hotel...

-That is what I was gonna say!
-There's no guard rail there.

What if her car just went off,
just...

(IMITATES SCREECHING
AND EXPLOSION)

A sad mystery.

(GRUNTS)

(SIGHS) But we're
not gonna do that

because that is a bad idea.

-Terrible.
-Yeah.

Yeah. I'm glad we agree.

(MAN COUGHING)

(PHONE RINGING)

Yeah?

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(MAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY
OVER RADIO)

APRIL: Oh, my God.

-Do we know...
-No.

Not really.

I'll call Brandon's office,
tell him not to come.

-No.
-RICK: Good idea. No, do it.

-No, fuck that! No!
-We can't have him see this.

We have three days' work
in the soundstage,
starting this Friday.

Let's shoot it today.
Am I right?

I could call the AD,
and see how long

it'll take him
to rig the stages.

What actors play
in those scenes?

RICK: Uh, Sheridan,
and Lady Saxon, Munro...

LOUIS: They should
all be there, anyway.

MILES:
Okay, so we can do this.

RICK:
Gotta push the call times.

MILES:
Fine, wake up the AD,

tell her that we're moving
the trucks to the stages.

Can we even fix
this set in three days?

One thing
at a fucking time, okay?

Call Brandon's people,

tell them to bring him
straight to the stage.

Far as he knows,
we're right on schedule, okay?

Okay.

Even if we keep a lid on this,

it's just gonna
keep happening, right?

Why would it?

Yeah, could be somebody
dropped a cigarette, right?

Or, or maybe it's connected
to that fucking guy
bleeding in the trailer.

This is cartel shit.

LOUIS:
Why do you say that?

Rick, have you been
talking to somebody?

What? No.

What are you going on about?

I'm saying,
crazy shit's happening.

If you ever
say that again,
if you even think it...

I can't help you.

He can't help you.
Do you understand?

(CAR APPROACHING)

Do you understand?

Yeah.

(MAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

You fuck this up.

I did? How's that?

Didn't tell me to watch
for nobody here.

You don't got security?

We're not sure what happened.

But my movie's okay?

If there's no more fires,

or shootings
or anything of that nature.

MILES: Yeah.

No, I've got the last of the
trucks heading over now.

How's everything
going your end?

Okay. Well,
I'll be there in a bit.

Yeah.

BECCA: Why am I
just hearing about this now?

So I just came in all the way.

If I don't answer a text,
it's 'cause
I didn't get it. Okay?

Bad enough, you don't have
someone pick me up.

But I am second
on the call sheet?

I mean, what the fuck?

The least you can do
is get a message

to the fucking hotel!

Oh, hi! Hi!

You seem a bit unhappy.

God, nothing compared to you.

God, the AD said
it was an electrical fire.

Seems that way.

We're getting it sorted.

God, you poor thing.

Have you
been here all night?

MILES: Most of it.

BECCA: Well, if, um...
If you're heading
back to the hotel,

I could give you a ride.

A ride?

Yeah, I mean, it's better
than waiting for a van.

(CHUCKLES LIGHTLY)

I'm a bit smoky.

I could do
with changing my clothes.

Take a shower.

Yeah.

(CHUCKLES)

Which way do you take?

-Over the hill is fastest.
-Oh.

You know there's
a spot on that road,

you get out,
it's a beautiful view.

You'll have to show me.

(ENGINE STARTS)

(MUSIC PLAYING
OVER CAR STEREO)

(GASPS) This is nice.

Yeah, wait till you see it
from the edge.

Should I bring a blanket?

In case we want to hang out.

That's a nice idea.

(CHUCKLES)

(BECCA SIGHS)

(SIGHS) It's like Margaret.

How's that?

At the end of the movie,
she's thinking about throwing
herself off the cliff.

But I don't think she does it.

Really?

See, I think maybe she does.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

They ruined our little party,
didn't they?

Yes, they did.

Let's go back to the hotel.

Yeah.

WOMAN: Honey, grab that.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

-Hey.
-So Brandon
will be here any minute.

We're setting up
at the soundstage,

it looks like
that's gonna work out.

Okay, I'm heading back
to the hotel,

but I'll get there
as soon as I can.

-Something else.
-MILES: What's that?

I think I got Carey Mulligan!

MILES: What?

APRIL: I called her manager
after we spoke yesterday,

she'd already read the script.
Loves it for Carey.

I said it was time-sensitive.
Then I got a call this morning

saying Carey read it,
and she wants to do it!

Holy shit!

Holy shit!

We could even try getting her
for less than her full quote.

You think Brandon
will pay for it?

APRIL: With Carey,
I think we have a shot.

We should tell him together.

BECCA: Let's go!

MILES:
Yeah. That's fuck...

You did this!
You did this all on your own.

You saved the fucking movie!

And without anyone
even making me!

-Who'da thunk?
-(CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS) Okay, well, I'll see
you soon, you beautiful thing.

-News from set?
-Unbelievably good news.

-Was it?
-Yeah.

But it does mean
I have to go back to the
soundstage right now.

You're not serious.

You want me to drive
20 minutes that way?

(CHUCKLES)
I'll have a PA pick me up.

Suit yourself.

Drive safe.

NATHAN: Maintaining a property
this large has its drawbacks,

especially on
20,000 pounds a year,

but despite all that,

you must agree the view
of my estate
is quite impressive.

Oh, indeed.

HAFDIS: Hey,
we can see Enrique.

-Cut!
-WOMAN: Cut! Cut!
That's a cut!

Didn't we see
that during rehearsal?

(SIGHING)
There's no time to re-light.

Hey, Louis, do you think
that we could have a new line?

So he doesn't
have to open that shade.

Doesn't open the shade.

-Yeah, in the carriage.
-Yeah. Got it.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

What a surprise.

Hey, bud. I need a quick line.

HENRY: Hey,
you ever read Screentrader?

-LOUIS: What?
-Um, industry blog,

pretty informative...

Okay, look,
do you have your script?

Because it's scene 23A.

HENRY:
Article this week says,

"The Admiral's Mistress,
written by Louis Darnell,
budget $30 million."

LOUIS: Okay, okay, Henry,
I... I really
don't have time...

You're getting paid
at least scale,

that's 130 grand.

You gave me $500.

And I'm gonna double that.

HENRY: Fuck that.

Henry?

Shit. You little fuck...

(LINE RINGING)

(OVER RECORDING)
You've reached Henry.
Please leave a message.

-(SIGHS) Shit! Shit!
-Louis?

Okay. (SIGHS) So...

So, they're in the carriage.

Sheridan, the lady and he's
just talking about

his big ol' house
and he's thinking,

"Hey, I'm gonna
get laid tonight."

What's the line? Just...

So... Okay,
so he's... He says,

"The view of my estate
is impressive." (BABBLES)

But he's looking
at this hot girl next to him,
and he says,

"Its beauty is nothing
compared to yours."

Give him the line.

You're gonna use it?

Yeah.

Well, I mean, yeah,
that's the line.

My line.

TREY: Hey, man, look,
you don't need to
trash my place, okay?

I'm not the one after Amara.

Listen, man,
I didn't want to
say this before,

but, you know,
those people in Winnemucca,

they been talking
all kinds of shit.

You and I, we can
work this shit out.

We can figure it out together.

Smell this.

(SNIFFS) Smells like smoke.

(CHUCKLES) Come on, man.

(SNIFFS) That smells
like barbecue.

(SNIFFLING) Hmm.

Don't smell like barbecue.

Man, I'll show you, all right?

It's right back here,
I was just cooking on it.

(CHUCKLES)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

BRANDON: When I'm in
a landlocked state,

I don't order fish.

MILES: Huh.

I know it's probably
the same salmon
they're eating in Tokyo,

shipped on dry ice,
but somehow...

-That's smart.
-Yeah.

Why didn't we invite
Becca Morgan, tonight?

She's fantastic, isn't she?
What a "get."

About that.

APRIL:
We know you love her.

And we were excited, too,
going in...

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) Oh, boy.

But now that we're seeing what
she's doing with the role,

-turns out...
-She's pretty much shite.

She's compromising the film.

No kidding.

We do have
a possible solution.

Mmm-hmm.

Turns out Carey Mulligan
wants to play the role.

Carey Mulligan is fantastic.

-We think so.
-Mmm-hmm.

But Becca is pay-or-play.

Carey might be willing to do
this for less than her quote.

Her manager says she would
get on a plane this weekend,

be ready to shoot by Monday...

If you're game.

Uh... (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

(LOUIS GRUNTS)

I'm just getting ice.

Yeah. Dinner.

(GRUNTS)

(CLICKS TONGUE) So...

So you've never had sex?

That is correct. (SIGHS)

And your Mormon friends?

I mean,
unless they're married,
none of them,

none of them have had sex?

You... You must jerk off
all the time.

It's not allowed.

Come on!

Sex is the sacred expression
of love between
a husband and wife.

You break that covenant,
and you're on the
Holy Ghost shit list.

-(SIGHS)
-I've heard you swear.

Isn't that a rule?

Look. I've kind of made
my own agreement
with the Lord.

You know, I mean,
there's some give and take.

But not with sex.

Not really, no.

Not really?

There is a gray area.

It's not sanctioned
by the church,

but the kids call it soaking.

Go on.

Um, the man puts
his penis in the vagina.

But you don't
move around at all,

you just leave it in there,
and you stay real still.

As long as you don't move,
in theory,

God doesn't notice.

(CHUCKLES) That is dirty.

You don't like?

Ah, it's okay. Yeah.

What's wrong, Ricky?

I'm fine.

Enough. Tell me what's wrong.

Eh! Just...

Little worried about us.

Why?

Oh, I mean, things
are great between us now.

But we all have
our ups and downs.

We're down?

We are not down. We're up.

Very up, I think.

But maybe when you
get to know me,

there's something
you don't like...

I'm just afraid
of getting hurt.

Don't worry, Ricky.

You don't hurt me,
I don't hurt you.

(RICK CHUCKLES)

It's just nice.

Yeah. Yeah.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Yeah?

ED: You were right. (SIGHS)

AMARA:
Is he there with you?

-Yeah, he is.
-(GROANS)

Do it.

(EXPLOSION)

(YELPS)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(SNORING)

(GLADYS LAUGHING)

(LOUIS AND GLADYS LAUGHING)

(LAUGHS) Oh!

Oh! (GRUNTS)

This is some tantric shit.

I don't know what that means.

Oh! (GRUNTING)

So he's chewing
his steak, and we're
waiting on an answer.

I mean, at this stage,
I'm convinced
it's gonna be a no,

because, you know,
it's gonna cost the studio
a pile of money,

but then Brandon
looks at us and says,

"Fantastic. Let's do this!"

(SIGHS) That is so great!

Now I just need to give
Becca Morgan the news.

KATIE: Right,
this is your shot,
and you made it happen.

So, if she's not playing nice,
get her the hell out of there.

You are harsh.

I'm just proud of you.

How'd the job interview go?

KATIE: (SIGHS)
We talked for an hour,

he let me sit in on a consult.

And then
I got the gig.

-Seriously?
-(CHUCKLES)

That's great!
Way to bury the lede.

Letting me prattle on.

Eh, it's part-time.

MILES: Well, that's good.

So, now we're living in LA,
and you're in Nevada.

I was thinking I might
stay here, actually.
I could move in with Jeffrey.

You know what? On that note,
I'm dealing with the movers.

-Let's talk later.
-Give Shorty a kick from me.

And well done.

I didn't even know you could
get a degree
in "vocal performance."

-(CHUCKLES)
-Well, there's no money in it.

I had to pay off my student
loans somehow, so here I am.

(CHUCKLES)

Did you always
want to be a writer?

Uh... Well, I thought
it would be less stressful
than my last job.

I know, being on-set writer
is a lot.

But you're doing great.

Thanks.

(CHUCKLES)
I'm gonna get some water.
You want some?

No, thanks, I'm okay.

Hey, for what it's worth,

I would pay to
hear you sing anytime.

* Once upon a time
there was light in my life

* But now there's
only love in the dark

* Nothing I can say
Total eclipse of the heart

* Turn around, bright eyes

* Every now and then
I fall apart

* Turn around, bright eyes

* Every now and then
I fall apart

* ...time
I was falling in love

* But now
I'm only falling apart

* There's nothing I can say

* Total eclipse of the heart

That was incredible.

(CHUCKLES)

MAN 1: Pull!

MAN 2: Fire!

Fire!

MAN 3: Reload!

HAFDIS: Cut!

-MAN 3: Oh, that's a cut!
-Perfect, guys!

Gotta do it again.

FIRST AD:
Resetting, quickly, please.

RICK: We don't
need to do it again but...

LOUIS: Should've written
more cannon parts
if I knew it was that cool.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

I've got a call scheduled
with Becca's reps.

You want to break
the news to Becca,
or should we flip for it?

Oh, no, I'll handle that.

(CELL PHONE CHIMING)

Quickly, we're shooting. What?

We're ready to roll, guys,

can you please
put the phones away and focus?

Did you know
we were getting shut down?

-HAFDIS: Huh?
-It's on Deadline.

What the hell
are they talking about?

Hold on, okay,
here's Deadline.

"Gravity International
stops production
of The Admiral's Mistress."

APRIL: Why am I
hearing about this now?

Who filed an accident report?

Accident?
Is this about the fire?

No, no, hold on,
the fire didn't
stop us shooting.

Becca Morgan
did not scratch her cornea!

The speck of sand
under her fuckin' contact?

She was fine!

She shot a scene the same day.

Marsha, have Brandon call me
the second his plane lands.

That Kiwi cunt.

She knew. She knew
we were getting rid of her,

and she's trying to bring
the whole thing down.

No, Becca couldn't
do this on her own.
It's happening too fast.

LOUIS:
What do you mean?

Brandon must have known.

Okay, here it is. "Studio head
Brandon Fisher released
a statement, saying,

"'The moment we learned
of Ms. Morgan's injury,
we stopped the production.

"'At Gravity, the safety
of talent and crew
is our first priority.'"

But, hold on, we told
Brandon that we already
had Carey Mulligan.

Who cares if Becca's
got fucking dust in her eye?

This doesn't make sense.

Well, you're the one
who's in touch with him.

I don't know what's going on
any more than you do!

We keep shooting? (SIGHS)

HAFDIS: They're
shutting down my movie.

Well, fuck 'em!
Let's go home, folks.

All right, people,
that's a wrap.

MAN: Great!

WOMAN 1:
Stop what you're doing.

WOMAN 2: I needed this job!

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Okay. Okay,
so, we talk to Brandon.

We explain to him, again,
that we don't need Becca,
we can sort this.

-Buddy, where's Amara?
-Right?

Hey, did she come with you?

She's at the hotel
when I left, so...

Okay, this means Amara
lost money, right?

Did Amara just
lose her investment?

Oh, fuck!

Excuse me.

APRIL:
Where is he going?

LOUIS: Here, come on!
APRIL: Why is he running?

We're outta here, come on!

Where are you going?

It's okay. We'll tell Amara
that there's no problem.
That we can fix this.

Tell her from the road,
because we're not gonna
be here when she shows up.

-APRIL: Uh, guys?
-April! Thank you
for everything!

(ENGINE REVVING)

LOUIS:
Keys. Fucking keys.

(ENGINE REVVING)

What the fuck just happened?
