That doesn’t make any sense.

It’s like a four hour flight...

so four hours would be...

you get there at six?

[Man] Three o’clock L.A time.

[Woman] Right. Oh, right.

[Man] So, six o’clock New York time.

Okay, yeah. That’s what I meant.

Thank you.

You’re very smart.

What are you gonna do while I'm gone?

Just jack off.

[She chuckles]

Right. What else?

What are you gonna do different

than what you normally do when I'm gone?

Left handed jack off.

[Both laugh]

[Woman] Shut up.

No, really though, you
should do something like.

You should learn something or-

Shut the fuck up.

[Both laughing]

Shut up.

[Woman laughs]

I'm already going to
your dumb ass friend's

fucking gender reveal party for you.

They're your friends too.

Yeah, definitely.

What do you think it is, a boy or a girl?

What do I think it
is? I don't give a fuck.

I don't give a shit.

I think they're way too

alcoholic to have a kid.

[Soft music on TV]

[Woman on TV] Ready, pressing down.

Press but keep that back straight now.

Press. Press.

Let's hear you breathing.

[Woman exhales deeply]

Good, ready?

Let's take it up again, reach high.

Now take it down.

- You put grapes in smoothies?
- Just one.

You put one grape in a smoothie?

It just gives it a little kick.

- [He chuckles]
- It's fiber.

How can you taste one grape?

[Woman chuckling]

[Pen scratches]

Okay.

Walk me through it again.

Okay, so right here.

- HeartGard.
- Yeah.

- NexGard.
- Yeah.

Once a month so it's tomorrow.

- Falls on the second this month.
- Right, yeah, yeah.

- Probiotic?
- I got it on my calendar yep.

Probiotic, got that.

Probiotic powder and the CBD glucosamine

which is at five o'clock every day.

- You have to do it at five o'clock.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Yeah.
- That's it?

So it's the food, it's the air dried food,

- the probiotic?
- Mm-hmm.

It's the

- NexGard, HeartGard--
- You know this.

- You know.
- On the second.

I'm just going over with you.

- Okay, okay, okay.
- Okay?

And then it's the CBD oil at 5:00.

[Blender rumbling]

The CBD powder at 5:00.

Yeah.

The CBD powder I've
heard is actually stronger

than the liquid because the liquid,

or no, vice versa

because the liquid's
already in liquid form.

You know what I mean?

And it's sort of easier for
the body to digest or whatever.

- That's cool.
- How is it?

Mm-hmm, mm.

Did you put almond milk in it?

Mm-hmm.

I can't drink almond milk.

Why'd you let me do that?

- I did not remember.
- You trying to kill me?

- You didn't remember?
- You had Thai last night.

It has peanuts in it.

It doesn't have peanuts
in it when you tell them

Okay.

...to not not have any peanuts in it.

Okay, I have to go.

- I'm gonna get dressed.
- Shit.

I'm gonna put this right here.

- [Paper rustling]
- Okay?

Why don't you text it?

Just text me a picture of it.

Will you throw me another
roll of paper towels, Julia?

Oh, will you throw me a
roll of paper towels, babe?

Oh, yeah.

With these new socks.

Why are you wearing shorts?

'Cause it's gonna be hot.

I'm telling you this is gonna
be much more of a casual vibe

- than you're-
- No, it's not.

It's not like a nice thing,

you know what I mean?

- It's not a party for President...
- It's in the Palisades.

It's really nice, it's a $2 million house.

Oh my God.

This is a fucking $2 million house.

What are you talking about?

I'm supposed to dress
the price of the house?

I'm not gonna be there to justify.

HeartGard, NexGard tomorrow,

five o'clock,

CBD glucosamine every day.

Probiotic powder and
air dried food, right?

- Mm-hmm.
- Okay.

[Car engine revving]

I don't want you to go [Whimpers].

I know, [chuckles] okay.

- I don't want you to go.
- Okay, bye.

- I love you.
- I love you.

Bye, baby, Oh, I love you, give me a kiss.

[She babbles]

Okay, bye, baby.

- All right, bye.
- Bye, I love you.

- Fly safe.
- Thank you.

Love you.

[Ethereal music]

Okay, Roody.

[Helicopter whooshing]

Let's go inside, Roody.
Come on, come on Roody.

Rooskin, come on buddy.

Hey, hey, hey, let's go inside, come on.

Okay.

[Airplane roars by]

[Man on phone] Hello?

Hey, Nick, what's going on?

This is Alan Warner.

I got your number from Sean.

[Nick] Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

- [Alan] I emailed you.
- [Nick] Oh, yeah, yeah.

I'm sorry I didn't email you back.

[Alan] It's okay.

[Nick] I'm actually
gonna do that just now.

- [Alan] Yeah, no-
- What's going on, man?

[Alan] Yeah, thanks for taking.

I just wanna say thanks for picking up.

I'm a big fan of your film writing.

Long story short, I'm
working on a film project

and I have been for a few years and

kind of hitting a wall a little.

Could use a little bit of help maybe.

And I want somebody outside of my team

that's making it with
me to take a look at it.

Maybe someone like you that
might be able to see things

a little bit differently than me.

I've put like a lot of
money into this shit

and trying to get
married at some point and

[Chuckles] a little nervous that

the film's kind of not working.

They're like little interconnected,

kind of like a series of short films.

It's like a baton pass from
one character to the next and,

I don't know, is that something

that you might be interested in?

[Nick] I mean, uh, the thing
that I always feel like

I have to tell people

with anything like this is
it just takes me a while

to get around and stuff.

Sometimes it takes me kind
of a long while, so like,

[Alan] I was actually thinking
if you were into it,

maybe I would fly you out to Los Angeles

and we can watch them together like

and just have some drinks or something

and kind of watch them as they are.

Is that something that
you might be willing

or interested in?

- [Nick hesitates]
- I don't know if you drink or not.

I'm not proposing we get drunk.

- [Nick] I'm a notorious lush.
- Oh.

[Nick] I ain't been out that
way in about 10 years.

I call it Hell A as a fun
little thing that I do.

[Alan] You call it Hell A?

[Nick] Yeah, 'cause being
there is similar to being

- in the inferno of hell.
- [Alan] Of hell, yeah.

[Nick] But yeah, I could be down for that.

[Music continues;
People chatter]

[Music stops;
Dissonant crunching, beeping]

[Alan hums happily]

[Alan sings]

- [Man] Hey buddy.
- How's it going man?

- Oh, so glad you can make it.
- Yeah.

Hey Roo.

- How you doing?
- I'm doing great.

How how's everything going here?

Oh yeah, it's all going, you know.

Congratulations, man.

We're so excited for you guys.

Julia's bummed she couldn't be here.

Right, I know we've
been texting with her but,

it seems like she'll be able
to be here for the birth so.

That's some beautiful dogs.

You know, you can take
her off leash if you want.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's all, it's all fenced in.

It goes all the way to the creek and...

- Okay Roody.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- All right-
- I love those boots.

- Oh, thanks man.
- Yeah those are great.

Yeah, thank you.

Hey guys.

- Okay go ahead.
- So this is uh...

...this is Alan.

- Hey guys.
- Julia's fiance.

Yeah hey, I think we've met actually.

- Yeah, we've definitely met,
- you're the film guy.

- Yeah, I do some film work.
- This guy's been in it.

He's like what?

You been workin' on a
movie for five, six years?

Yeah, we started shooting
about four years ago so,

It takes out long, huh?

Yeah well.

We have a shoot tonight actually trying

to finish some stuff up-
- Oh that's great.

Well, let's all round up

'cause we got a gender reveal.

I'm gonna grab a drink I guess.

All right man, good to see you, yeah.

- Good to see you.
- Yeah you too, man.

[Man] When we first met, you
hated me, right, yeah.

[Alan fake laughs]

So definitely, you know,

and we worked through that and

we're so glad you guys could be here.

We weren't sure if we wanted
to do this whole thing,

but it feels right now

and

we're just excited to
have a kind of reason

to get all together and
celebrate this moment.

[Roo barks]

So without further ado, let's do this.

Okay, on count of three.

One, two, three.

[People cheer; Dog barks]

What's purple mean? What's -

Twins.

- Twins!
- Congratulations.

Dude, that's so awesome.

Congratulations, buddy.

Twins!

[Man] We don’t know we're actually.

We’re gonna keep that stuff secret, but...

- Hey, thank you so much.
- [Indistinct chatter]

- I know right.
- Congratulations.

[Intriguing music]

[Man] I know, I know, I know.

Yeah there's a whole
variety of colors actually.

Wow.

So exciting.

[Voices fade]

[Music rises]

[He whistles]

[Dog bark reverberates]

[Woman] Uber for Dabbs?

[Plane engine roars by]

[Alan] This is at Steep Rock, Colorado,
so it's a little bit above Telluride.

It's just 20 miles up the road

and it's high up. Every crew
member that was on this shoot

worked their ass out just
to get up there.

[Man] It's like the Shaolin Temple.

[Alan] Yes, exactly, it is like that.

[Fire crackles softly]

[Alan] Yeah, just to backtrack a little,

this would be the first film

in the series of the four films.

- [Man] Okay, great, great.
- [Dog whines]

Carl Sagan.

What's up pig?

Are you scared of my suitcase? Come here.

- [Pig oinks]
- Yay.

Hey, pretty girl.

William!

Hey buddy.

Hey,

Fuck.

[Sighs]

[Wind blows]

Barry?

Barry?

Where's that goat, pig?

Barry?

[Woman] Gently close your eyes
or lower them softly

if that feels safer for you.

And now we're gonna
inhale through our nose

and we're gonna exhale through our mouth,

relaxing our tongue.

[Breathes deeply]

[Woman arriving] Have ya'll seen my goat?

And stay present with your
breath, exhale [exhales],

inhale.

- Hi.
- Hey, how's it going?

Julie said we have
this place till tomorrow.

Have you seen a goat though around here?

I told Julie to keep all
the animals in the barn.

No, we haven't seen any goat.

- All weekend.
- All weekend, no goat.

I'm really sorry.

I know that must feel really hard.

Thank you.

Ya’ll haven't seen a goat, have you?

No one's seen a goat.

All right, everybody.

Let's take a moment to get grounded again.

Feel your feet in the earth.

Relax your shoulders.

Close your eyes.

Inhale through our nose [inhales].

Exhale through our mouth,
relaxing our tongues [exhales].

Inhale through our nose.

Barry.

Barry.

Barry?

What are you doing?

I'm gonna help you find your goat.

All right, come on.

Barry.

Come here boy.

- [Dog barks]
- [Woman whistles]

Barry Hannah!

Barry?

- You all right?
- Yeah.

- Come on Barry!
- Barry Hannah.

Barry Hannah!

We're losing light.

Let's keep walking.

I've got some jackets.

Thank God.

[Woman]
I had this artist come out.

He's from Miami and within five minutes

to go pick up this goat
from Ridgeway right?

And he's holding it down
while this other dude,

like castrates it with a pair of scissors

that he probably bought from,

I don't know, Walgreens.

That thing screamed

I swear to God it said my name.

It was like Dabbs!

It was horrible.

I cried, and I really don't
like to cry in front of people.

Find it humiliating.

However,

I didn't want him to
have that memory with me.

So I bring him back home

and I show him his pig,

you know, 'cause I think
they're gonna make,

be best friends and snuggle
up to each other in winter

and like take care of each other.

And she comes running out and the like

little goat standing there
and like she's starving.

So she's screaming, she's
coming down the hill,

She's like [mimicking] like this.

He takes one look at her

and literally like bolts nine hundred
miles per hour down the hill.

I go running after it,

you know and my Mexican band
mates are up in the balcony

and they come running after me.

But somehow we found him.

But like, that feels different than now.

Like for some reason like now

it feels like more like a betrayal.

You know?

Like I've proven my loyalty to the goat.

I thought we had an understanding.

I know it sounds ridiculous, but like

those animals are all I have right now.

My friends are worried about me too.

I just got back from
this wedding, you know?

Like partly, you know, I go just to like

kind of prove that everything's
cool and stuff, but

you know, I think they should be worried.

You know?

[Sighs] Strange times.

Yeah.

Do you pray?

I don't know if I would
call it prayer, but,

I can show you how I praise God.

Hallelujah.

Shit.

[Glass shatters]

[Both laugh]

- All right.
- Praise God.

Praise God, man.

[Dabbs sighs]

[Birds chirp]

[Man] Scene 3901 alpha,
take one soft sticks.

Thank you.

[Indistinct chatter]

Alright, Dabbs.

- Quiet please.
- Quiet.

Whenever you're ready Dabbs.

What the hell is all of this?

[Man] It's garbage, an animal must have...

I can clearly see it's garbage,

how the hell did it get here?

An animal must have gotten into it.

An animal.

How did an animal get in the garbage?

We keep the garbage locked up.

[Woman] So for the past six months

we've been saving up our moon cycle

as a sacrifice to mother Gaia.

We felt we wanted to
give her our life blood.

[Dabbs] So [chuckles] you've been
collecting your period blood

for the past six months?

- [Woman] Yes as a sacrifice...
- [Dabbs] And you brought it to Colorado

and spread it around my property

in the middle of bear season?

[Woman] Yes,

[Woman] somehow they got in.

[Dabbs] This isn't fucking Los
Angeles cactus garden.

Just go, please go now.

I can't even look at your face anymore.

Everybody.

You need to go too.

[Goat bleating]

You know it was before
that type of thing.

- Yeah.
- Before that type of thing.

- Eighties.
- Eighties, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It was in the eighties.

[Alan] Hey,

where's Roo?

Where's Roo?

[Lively chatter outside]

Where's Roo?

[Indistinct chatter]

Roody?

Roody.

Fuck.

Rooski?

Rooski.

[Man] If you could just put it
on the table to the left.

That's perfect, cause we
gotta clean this thing.

Hey buddy
- I can't find Roo anywhere.

Oh, no - upstairs, check
upstairs or check outside?

I was just upstairs.

- All right well I-
- She just sort of darted off,

- I saw her run away.
- Right, right.

Well, I doubt she's in the creek.

That's like a 12 foot drop, so.

The creek?

[Water flowing]

Roo?

How do they let you through
without an ID, that's insane.

[Indistinct chatter]

[Woman] Nathan!

[Alan whistling]

Bud, you okay?

Yeah.

I just think she could have actually

like fallen down the hill
and slipped into the creek.

Right when I said creek, I meant,

I didn't think she would be down here.

I know.

I'm just saying, I think I could tell

that she could have lost
her footing slipped down.

I just don't think she could have gotten
that far because

you know, she could have slipped
out into the park, right.

Maybe out into the city
streets, but I doubt that.

So there's a chance-

You told me she was good
to be off leash, you know?

Right all that I'm saying is
I wanna make sure that we're-

I just thought that meant

that she wouldn't have
gotten into the city streets

in the park.

Well, I'm just saying

that the backyard property line,

butts up against the park

and the park jutts out
into the city streets.

And so I just wanna make
sure that, you know,

when you're looking for her

that you're scanning this whole area,

it's not that much ground to cover.

So if we can get like

five, six, seven people to
help me form a perimeter.

We can spread out wide.

I think we just cover
the property, you know,

cover the property line,

like kind of all hands on
deck and we'll find her

you're right, she's not
far, I know that for sure.

Bro my mother-in-law
would kill me if I did that.

She can be really intense.

And I think right now...

...she's not a bitch,

I just wanna make that clear.

- Yeah.
- You know,

but I think that she's
been planning this thing

- for a few weeks now.
- Okay.

I know she wants it to go the way

- she planned it.
- Totally.

It's totally
understandable, right I mean.

- Totally understand.
- Right?

Totally understandable,

I just need a little bit
of help to find my dog.

You know what?

I have have an idea.

[Nathan] Knees bent level,
move forward.

Slowly.

And what it is, is it’s a
core exercise really.

And my leg’s shaking a little bit because,

I hurt it...

...and you move forward
faster, move back slower

and you lean it's intuitive, right?

I'll just drive my car.
I can't ride one of these things.

So It's about at 68% well now, well 38%,

but that's fine.

I don't know man.

It just seems like a dangerous option.

I could just walk the perimeter
instead of riding this-

This is your best option

for finding Roo right now

because you have LA traffic.

You can navigate the streets.

You can navigate the parks-

Just putting on the helmet, here.

Just unstrap it, why
don't you just unstrap it?

It doesn't unstrap, it doesn't unstrap.

Front foot comes there,
front foot comes there.

- That's your front foot.
- Okay.

Hold on to me.

Hold on to me, great.

And then what, just like jump?

Just put your foot on
the back, there we go.

There you go, no okay it's a flat table.

And you got it okay, now you're off.

Pressure on the front foot knees bent.

You can stand up a little
bit, don't have to, yeah okay.

- Great.
- [Man, distant] Nathan?

[Nathan] Coming.

[Soft music]

[Alan struggling]

Roo!

[Julia, on phone] Hello?

Hey! Haha. Gotcha, classic.

This is Julia, leave a
message, thanks! Bye. [Beeps]

Hey babe. Uhh...

Uhh...

Give me a call when you get
this, when you get to the airport

just call me as soon
as you can if you will.

Uhh, nothing to freak out about, just...

wanna mention something to you

that’s been going on. Uh, love you.

Call me when you get to the airport.

Bye.

You haven’t seen a Golden
Retriever running around,

have you? Off leash? A dog?

Have you a golden
retriever running around?

No.

A golden retriever off leash.

- Oh no, no bro.
- Okay thanks man.

You know, I lost my
dog a while back and...

Can I have the lighter back?

Sure [chuckles].

I lost my dog a while back and

it was one of the worst things
that ever happened to me.

So I understand what you're going through.

- I can relate.
- Yeah.

Good luck with everything.

His name was Boomer.

Now, why don't you join me?

I don't smoke, I don't smoke, thank you.

I have a knack for misplaced things.

I can help you find whatever
it is you're looking for.

Could you put that knife away please?

Of course.

- You don't like knives huh?
- Fuck.

[Alan coughing]

[Woman with knife]
You shouldn't be out by yourself

- at a time like this.
- I'm fine, I'm really okay.

So you're just gonna leave me here?

- Hey I don't-
- To die on these fucked up streets,

- you piece of shit!
- Hey, hey, hey, hey.

I'm not letting you leave Daniel.

- My name's not Daniel.
- [Woman screaming]

Sorry.

Hey stop!

Fuck is wrong with you?

I wanna ride off on
that scooter with you.

And, for you to get me a Mojito

from that corner store right there.

Fuck.

[Woman with knife] You okay?

[Alan] I don't know what's in a fucking-

[Woman with knife] Chartreuse,
Vodka, seltzer and cherries.

Listen, if I go get you a Mojito.

Yeah.

Then that's it, we're done okay.

Pinky promise that.

Pinky promise this.

[Chuckles] You're so cute.

[Soft music]

Just go get it.

Okay, come on.

[Woman with knife] I need help, quick.

I need help.

[Soft music continues]

[Man] How often does one try
to, like, soldier through a film

with the thought that, like,

maybe it’s gonna tie together

at some point?

Sometimes a movie will sustain
a sense of, like, ambivalence

all the way through.

Sometimes it’s, you know, it’s a wayhomer

that it takes a little
while to figure out.

But so, so often - and I guess it’s
just because of these exceptions

to the rule - that you sort of hang in.

So, so often I will start a movie

and like thirty seconds in
I’m like “Ah yea this is my shit.”

Or, like, “No I don’t
fuck with this at all.” [Laughs]

[Alan] Exactly dude. Yeah.

[Man] You just like
to plop it on the sticks

and lock it down, don't you?

[Alan] Yeah.

- [Alan] We need a refill.
- [Man] Yeah.

How are we, how are we doing?

[Alan] I think we're in a

actually a good place to get a refill

cause we're gonna start
the next film.

[Man] Okay, great, great.

[Alan] The next film.

[TV chatter]

[Upbeat music on radio]

- V!
- Hey Kris, what's going on?

- I didn't know you're back.
- Yeah.

Aw shit, I'm so glad I caught you.

This is my last day,
I'm leaving to New York.

Yeah, it's good.

- Tonight.
- That's great.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

[Man, distant] Kris...

I got a, but do you
want a coffee anything?

Yeah.

- Do you have a sec later?
- Yes I do.

I wanna say like a proper goodbye.

Okay.

[Laughter]

[Woman shouts] Louder!

Give it to me.

[Screeching]

- Can you get louder?
- [Laughing]

Yeah.

Like you just peed yourself.

[Screeching]

Good.

But can I hear you out there?

[Laughing louder]

[Woman] I love it.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That was good.

Great intensity.

[Man] Tiffany Taylor.

Follow me please.

[Breathes deeply]

Yeah, that's true.

[Indistinct chatter]

[Man] Next up we have Tiffany Taylor.

[Door closes]

[Laughing]

[Both laughing]

[Muffled music on headphones]

[Alan, on phone] How are you?

[Julia, on phone] I'm fine, just
sorry it was chaos at the airport

and now we're getting ready
for dinner with the clients,

I just got your message, what's up?

[Alan] Uh... So I went to Nathan's
to the gender reveal party.

[Julia] Uh-huh, yeah.

- Uh, cool, how was it?
- [Alan] Yeah.

Well, it was okay.

Like right when I got there,

he told me that Roo was
good to be off leash.

[Julia] What, okay?

[Alan] And I believed I
believed him, you know?

And so I let Roo off leash.

I mean, it's fine, it's all good.

Like there's nothing to
kind of freak out about.

[Julia] What?

[Alan] Nathan told me

that I could take Roo off the leash

because everything was fenced in, okay?

[Julia] Alan, what are you trying to say?

[Alan] Roo.

When the firework thing went off,

Roo got freaked out and she
ran off and we can't find her.

[Julia] What do you mean, where is she?

[Alan] I don't know
where she is [chuckles].

That’s what I'm trying to say.

Like she's out.

She's not lost, but she's just got -

[Julia] Like she's just out the town,

what do you mean she's out?

[Alan] I mean, at the
moment I can't find her.

She might, that's what I'm thinking

that she's kind of out on the town,

but she's not lost.

- [Julia] You're joking.
- [Alan] No.

Julia, why would, I'm
not joking, I wish I was.

[Julia sighs]

[Alan] Don't freak out listen,
I'm just calling you to tell--

[Julia] Of all the fucking weeks, Alan...

I'm gonna get a red eye
and I'll be there in the morning.

[Alan] No, I'm not calling you
so that you come back.

I'm taking care of this,
I'm just letting you know.

[Julia] It's almost three o'clock

if she doesn't have her
HeartGard or NexGard by five,

she could have a seizure, you know this.

[Alan] Chill, please just relax.

Okay, it's fine, I'm gonna find the dog.

[Julia] The dog, the dog's name is Roo.

[Alan] I know the dog's name, okay.

[Julia] Then say her name.

Say it.

[Alan] Roo, okay?

[Julia] Where are you right now?

[Alan] I'm on my way home.

I'm gonna make flyers to hang up

so that we can find her quicker.

And the crew is there getting ready.

[Julia] You're gonna check on the crew?

- What do you mean?
- [Alan] Listen.

Someone's probably already found her

and that's why I've
gotta print these flyers.

[Julia] No, cancel the fucking shoot.

- [Alan] I can't.
- [Julia] I'm coming home.

Fuck this.

[Alan] Jules, no, babe.

Hello?

Hello?

[People chatter]

Do you have second?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

I know, you're kind of concerned about

the amount of stuff we're bringing over.

Do we need to pair down any more than...

Yeah, I mean, as much as you can.

Okay.

Everything good?

Uh...

Let's see.

I think she wanted to

ask you about a couple jackets.

- Some jackets.
- Yeah.

Like I was thinking we could go over

wherever you wanna start his wardrobe

- or her wardrobe.
- Sure wherever.

Let's start with his then, okay.

So that's gonna be a little too hot.

It's gonna be pretty
hot, that'll be too hot.

That'll be too hot.

Can just kind of get rid of these.

Okay, sure.

This one, the arms-
- This is gonna be too hot.

The arms come off of that, okay.

So we've got a couple wind breakers.

Watch out Tray coming through.

Okay.

This is for what?

- He won't fit in that.
- It's for her, it's for her.

So she's only gonna need the socks.

That's what I was saying on
the photos that I sent you.

If you read the email,

it's basically saying that
she's continuing from her scene

from, you know, coming from,

the other house on the scooter

and she's wearing the same thing

and we just needed the
new socks with stripes.

Did you get those socks with stripes?

Yes the socks with the orange stripes?

- That's it.
- White socks

with the orange stripes.

And then so all of the
stuff for her can come...

you can take that back. For him,

I don't know, something
like this it's nice.

Watch out - Tray - points.

- With the windbreaker yeah.
- The wind breaker is nice.

- This is gonna be too heavy.
- Okay, sure.

He's bringing his own
pants options, is that right?

Yeah I think that's what he said,

but I'll have some stuff
there just in case, you know.

What's that for?

That was for her,

but we don't need any stuff for her right.

So I'll take, make sure this is all away

next time you walk by.

- I'll pull more options.
- Hey, I'm gonna take,

I'm just gonna take a breather back here.

Okay, sure.

I'll pull more options for the jackets.

Hey. Buddy. Hey.

You got time for a quick story?

- Can you hear me?
- I don’t man, I’m sorry.

Test. Test.

Can you hear me?

Yeah, I can hear you fine.

So listen, you know how we,

Dad, I don’t have...
I told you about these raccoons

we have in the upstate house.

So the morning [chuckles],

I come into the kitchen, the
refrigerator doors wide open.

Look at this, look at that [chuckles].

Oh wow.

[Chuckles] Unbelievable.

Did you get that from the
nest camera or whatever?

- What?
- The nest camera got that?

Yes.

Okay.

Hey dad, I'm gonna have to,
I need to call you back.

I'm trying to make this
flyer Roo went missing today.

I'm looking for her.

Wait, say again.

Roo is missing right now,
she ran away this morning.

- I'm trying to find her.
- What?

- So Julia's dog Roo...
- I know who Roo is.

What are you saying?
She went missing?

I had to take her to this fucking

gender reveal party for our
friend and she ran away

- and I can't find her.
- [Alan’s dad gasps]

What do you mean you can't find her?

What do you mean, what
do I mean I can't find her?

- What do you think I mean?
- Why aren't you looking for her?

I am looking for her, I've been looking.

You're not looking, you're not,

you're home right now
talking to me, dicking off.

I've been riding around,
trying to find her.

The fucking crew is here
getting ready for the shoot tonight.

Like I'm a little bit
underwater right now, okay.

You should rethink that shoot, okay?

Have you told Julia about the dog?

Yes.

What'd she say?

I mean, she's pissed,
what do you think she said?

She doesn't know what to do right now.

Do not fuck this up with her.

- All right?
- Yeah.

She's the best thing
that ever happened to you.

She's the best thing that ever happen

- to this family.
- Dad relax man.

I don't know how much
longer I can do this with you.

Dad, I'm gonna let you go now.

I'm gonna call, I'm calling
the Dog Tracker Shaman.

- The what?
- So my friend Lou,

my friend, Lou from Topanga lost his dog

and he found this dog tracker
who's also with shaman

and the dog been missing for
like six days or something.

And this guy found Lou's
dog in about four hours.

It was a miracle.

It's not a miracle, it's a scam -

I'm getting his number right now.

Umm, just so everybody knows,

Alan lost his dog this morning.

And, um, that’s kind of

hopefully it’s not going
to affect our shoot.

I don’t think he wants
it to affect the shoot.

We’re going to continue on.

We’re heading to location here
in about forty-five, wheels up.

And then we’re gonna load in, we’re
gonna pre-light and we’ll be ready to go

for him. But just so you guys know

Rob is gonna talk to
you all about kill fees

if something were to happen

and we can’t shoot tonight.

But right now the shoot is on.

I don’t want anyone to think otherwise.

Let’s not... let’s give him space.

- Dad, I don’t want you to do this.
- He knows what he’s doing.

I'm not gonna waste time
talking to you anymore.

- Hey, hey, don't hang up me.
- I'm gonna call him now,

answer him when he calls - bye.

[Somber music]

[Alan] I think that this... we’ll
watch this and then we’ll

- talk a little bit later.
- Yeah.

Yeah.

[Man] Just let me know if you want me
to nudge things in another direction.

- Cheers my friend.
- Cheers.

- This is fun, this is wild.
- Good, good, good.

[Woman] Are you gonna help us or not?

I’m sorry?

Well are you gonna fucking help us or not?

You need

my help?

Wow.

Yeah, no, we need your help.

Okay.

- What do you need it for?

I just wanna hold it for a second.

[Clears throat]

- Why.
- [Sighs]

I want to show you something.

Okay, what do you wanna show me?

It's a secret.

It's surprise.

It'll be easier if I just type it.

Yeah.

Do you like music?

Do I like music?

Yeah.

[Music plays on phone]

Do you know the song?

No.

[woman sings]

Pretty good, yeah?

Yeah.

[Woman sings ]

[Glass shatters]

It’s Thai.

- Okay.
- [Sighs]

[Woman sings]

Turn that down, you'll wake him up.

Hey, turn it down, you'll wake him up.

He likes this song.

Okay, now.

- Thank you guys.
- Stop me when you hear a tea

that you really like okay.

So we've got Earl Grey, Darjeeling black,

We've got a Russian caravan,

which is sort of more of a smoked tea.

And Rose Congo is just sort of black tea

with rose petals in it, it's really nice.

No, it's fun.

- I don't need tea.
- Oh, okay, don't do that.

[Chuckles] Don't get weird.

We're just making you tea to say -

- thank you.
- It's not a big deal. [Chuckles]

Maybe we'll go with Earl Grey for you.

All right so,

I asked you before,

- but you didn't answer.
- Got it.

Sorry.

- Do you take sugar?
- What's your passcode?

- [Glass knocking]
- No.

It's.

Your passcode?

- Yeah.

One, one, one, one, one, one, one.

[Laughing]

All set.

Let's say cheers.

- Yeah, cheers.
- Cheers.

Cheers.

- Got to drink it.
- Drink your tea.

- It's tea time.
- Yeah.

Thank you.

[Shutter clicks]

- [She chuckles]
- [He clears throat]

That was really good. [Chuckles]

- Yeah that's funny.
- [Laughing]

Look, I understand, you
must be feeling a bit weird,

it's okay.

I mean, I like tested you outside.

You know, you were probably like,

who are these two girls
carrying a mattress

and it's us! [Laughing]

But you you're a good man, you know,

you helped two complete
strangers. Is that crazy or...

...nice?

- I think it's so nice.
- It's nice.

One point to you.

- You know?
- Yeah.

But now we're being
mean to you aren't we?

- And we're making your work.
- No.

We don't even know where you're from.
Where you from?

- Yeah, I'm from Norway, but-
- Just like me.

[Woman laughing]

Yeah, but I'm on my
way, I'm moving to the-

Do you ever just not talk and just think

- and just breathe.
- Just breathe.

Yeah.

Try it, just breathe.

Yeah.

- You guys are not weird.
- [Woman gasps]

If you think I put
something in the tea,

I did not.

- Hey, - Okay.

Hey.

What's her name again?

Are you okay?

Yeah, she took my phone.

- Hey,
- I forgot, it's something.

What?

Okay.

[Lips smooching]

[Woman laughs]

What, who are you guys?

Did you like that?

Cause your face says you did.

Listen, I get it.

I get what you want.

You did not come up here for
a cup of fucking tea, did you?

What do you mean no?

Huh?

I mean, you're not stupid
enough to come up here

for nothing, right?

I mean, if you want,
[indistinct] you can just ask.

A what?

A blow job...

from me... to say
thanks for the mattress.

No, no, no.

[Chuckles] Listen.

No, no, I don't want a blow job.

Sometimes it's hard for guys to just say

I want my dick in your mouth.

- Isn't it weird to say that.
- It is weird, yeah, yeah.

So just instead of saying the words,

just give me a sign.

If you want your cock
in my mouth just...

blink.

- Okay.
- No,

that wasn't a cue or anything
that wasn't the sign.

You look like your
muscles are gone a bit - woooo.

- I need my phone and she-
- Okay.

No, no, no please don't just stop.

Listen why are you being weird with me

when you are the one kissing her?

- I see the new mattress came in.
- Yeah, we got it.

What the fuck is this guy?

- What the fuck is?
- Just relax.

- No, no, no, please.
- He is allowed to be here.

That's the rule.

[Alan] Have you seen a golden retriever

running around here at all?

[Woman] I don't live
here, I came to the bank

- I live in Hollywood.
- Oh, I see.

I'm near Vine, that area.

Oh, you're not even in this area?

- No.
- Okay.

- But I hope you find them..
- Thank you so much.

[Woman] We have coyotes up where I am.

- Do you have that down here?
- You have coyotes over there.

And the mountain lions.

[Alan] I'm not from around here either.

And she was lost, like not too far away.

- So I did not know about coyotes.
- You're visiting?

Yeah I just live on the east side.

Oh.

[Man on phone] Kevin's about to be there.

He was in the neighborhood,
he went to go get a

just a quick bite, 'cause
he hadn't heard from you.

Dude just open it...

...arm and all the, you know,

need to get tonight, so.

[Alan] I know, I don't want to
have many cases though dude,

I've said that like we don't need,

we're not shooting fucking
Lord of the Rings, like

just make sure they don't pack up

like every single thing
in my house, you know?

[Woman] It's a group, I think, called
Pet Finders. Is she chipped?

- Pet finders?
- Yeah, Is she chipped?

- [Alan] She is chipped, yeah.
- So when someone finds her...

[Alan] Which has been
tough because I thought

that the chip could have maybe helped us

like geo track her a little bit, but.

I don't think so,

- you gotta have a GPS chip.
- That's exactly right.

[Alan] Are they there already?

[Man on phone] Yes. I
mean everybody's here.

We didn't stagger anybody,
so they're, everybody's.

[Alan] It's so early like,
what the fuck, yeah.

Just have just have everybody get familiar

with the script you know.

I'm on my way.

[Melancholic music]

[Phone buzzing]

[Woman] Because I'm having, he wants

to do something more like...

I'm sorry I don't have my phone.

I don't have my phone,

I know you've been trying to call me.

- Hey, hey.
- Hey, hey.

Chad.

- How are you, man?
- Hey, nice to meet you.

Good to see you.

- Hey nice to see you.
- What's up, yeah.

- Sorry about the call.
- Oh, it's okay.

Yeah,

just did you wanna see what we cause

we kind we've been-
- We've been working on it

Love to.

Yeah so we can just
get into it, all right.

So. It’ll be like...

Go to bed.

That's perfect, if you can
do that - okay.

[Chuckles]

It's gonna be more smooth, but

- and then the throw
- And then also.

Can I see it again?

I'm not gonna fix

Alan can I get a moment?

Just one... gimme one second.

I love, let's just, I love that.

I love it, I think it's great.

[Man] We gotta make a choice on lensing

- and I just need your final-
- The 50 to 300.

I thought we talked about that.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

And if you and Shirley
have already worked out

the blue screen stuff,
then I, whatever, like.

You guys have been here for
a while, sorry I'm late.

Let's get that outta the way
like can we just shoot it?

- You know?
- Yeah.

I think we just need to kind of go

we've already lost.

[Woman] Yeah, yeah.

Hey Alan, sorry, I just wanna run

the throw that we're gonna
do by before we do it

because I can't do it too many times.

Ben,

would you mind making sure
that door is closed over there?

Thank you.

- Okay, so in the video.
- What is this?

Just the throw.

I wanna make sure we choose it before

- we do it too many times.
- 'Cause if that light comes in,

it's gonna bust the shot, okay.

So I don't know.

Basically we just came up
with like an alt and I just...

A what?

It's not exactly what's in the video

is what I'm saying.

It's not, but I think it's better.

No, I wanted it to kind of look like,

so she comes in and she trips over

and that's what you guys are gonna do,

he throws you on the bed, right?

Well,

yeah.

Do you mind if we just
let's just kind of roll it

and work it out while we're rolling it.

- All right.
- Okay.

Can I get everybody
gathered together a little?

Chad, I want to introduce everybody.

If we could get the crew, Ben,

you get everybody kind of here.

Thank you guys so much for being here.

Want to introduce Chad.

- Let's give it up for Chad.
- [People clapping]

- Too hot for clapping. Too hot.
- [Chuckles] Yeah.

And we just wanna say a big thank you

to all of you guys who've
been working on this film.

It takes a lot of dedication to be here.

So okay.

Where we are shooting
in the script right now,

Courtney has just left Ella and Kris.

She's stolen his scooter.

Did you bring those
headphones that you had on?

[Woman] They’re not mine...

Shelly, do we have those headphones with,

don't worry about it, we
can just kind of, you know,

we're shooting out of sequence.

So she's gonna actually be at a bar like,

she crawls in through
this and she gets drunk

and I think you could just
leave the headphones there,

whatever it doesn't matter for continuity.

She gets here.

This is kind of her husband
daddy kind of character.

He's gonna toss her into bed.

He's trying to put her
to bed drunk, all right.

So it should be really, it
should play really funny

especially after the thing with Kris.

We're kind of playing
with that a little bit.

Do you have any questions, anyone?

Yeah, yeah, why don't we just roll it?

Why don't we just roll it?

We'll kind of work it out
as we roll it, I think.

[Alan] Yeah, okay, so let's just,

Robby, why don't we get the crew set?

Everybody get in your position, Nico.

I like what you guys were doing

and we'll kinda work on the
trip, like as we're doing it.

[Woman] You want
me to put a trip in there?

Yeah, yeah no, I think

before or after he tosses, you get back up

and he somehow finds
something on the ground

trips over you, maybe something like that.

Are we rolling?

- Are we rolling?
- Get us the slate in.

Can we get the slate in?

Hey, let's get you, okay
So Chad, this will be

- your number one position.
- Okay.

We haven't really run it here.

We haven't run it here.

We're gonna run it here
in rehearsal, Courtney.

You're gonna be, we're
gonna get you right here.

Okay, this blue, we'll
just make that here.

301 apple take two

mark one.

Hey Joe,

if you don't mind from
now on let do soft sticks.

Yeah.

Just wanna protect the actors hearing.

We're loose.

We're relaxed, we're gonna just
roll this a few times okay?

So she's coming in

and you'll just start
the action all right?

[Woman] So you just want us to do

what we've planned, right?

Like.

I want you to do what you planned

with the addition of the
trip after the throw.

- Let's see what...
- Okay.

[Alan] All right, here we go.

Let's settle in.

Settle in, here we go.

And,

Courtney three, hold up.

Okay she's out.

And,

three seconds.

Go to bed.

[Alan] Reset, reset,

- Courtney, go back to one.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Hold on, hold on, hold on.
- Sorry.

It's good, it's not
very convincing just yet.

I know that was our first time, but

you need to really hit
that hat off of him.

That was a little bit.

Well I anticipated the
chin thing before anyway so,

- lets just.
- I saw that.

Let's do it again, here we go.

- So reset, reset.
- Reset the camera.

Ben, can I get you to shut that door?

Let's hold for Ben.

[Breathes deeply]

Taylor's here?

Thank you.

In fact, Ben, would you
go let Taylor in actually

from the dressing room, okay.

Let's wait for Ben.

Thank you guys for your patience.

- We still rolling right now.
- We're rolling.

We're rolling.

Shut that door Ben.

All right, here we go and,

three seconds Courtney and action.

[She chuckles]

[Chad] Go to bed.

[Snaps]

Uh-huh.

- [Thumping]
- Yeah.

[Man and woman grunting]

Okay okay okay, still
rolling, still rolling.

I got an idea, I got an idea.

[Chad] She's got a hiss.

- She does with me.
- A what?

There's a hiss, that's really fun.

Let's cut that, I don't like the hiss.

So Courtney,

I'm you I'm coming, Chad's, you're drunk.

You're doing the thing, blah, blah, blah.

On the throw.

I need to see you kind of look
a little drunk in the air.

I mean, it's a split.

- I mean, it's a millimeter...
- I’m blocking her...

don't block her.

If you can kind of you'll throw her, huh.

Let me just see how that might look.

Let's just try, we're rolling on this.

Try the throw and then just
step out of the way for camera.

- Try that.
- Sure.

[Chad] As long as to the point
of safety though, you know,

part of the throw is.

Let me just show you
what I'm thinking, Chad.

Have you thrown someone before?

- Like have you-
- Yes, I have.

I've directed

- and, so let's get.
- Hey Nico, let’s hold the roll.

What's that, sorry, what's that Robby?

[Robby] We're just gonna hold the roll.

You're gonna hold the roll?

[Robby] Yeah, we're gonna hold the roll.

I didn't call cut.

[Robby] I'm trying to save card space.

I didn't call cut.

- Already cut.
- [Alan] I didn't call cut.

I didn't call cut.

I'm holding the roll.

I heard you, but I didn't
fucking call cut, okay?

I told you on text message
that I wanted to do long rolls.

That's why we got this fucking hard drive.

I understand but
we're just starting off.

- We have, we don't-
- Exactly, we're just starting off

and we've lost fucking four hours today.

So I wanna roll on everything.

We're figuring this shit out,

[Robby] Alan.

I don't think that's helpful on set to be-

Oh, you don't think
that's helpful on set.

He doesn't think that's helpful on set.

Well, you know, what's not helpful.

She's a fucking professional
actor, all right.

She's on stage six nights a week.

Do you think that someone
comes on stage and they say,

oh, Courtney, let's give it,

you know, let's hold the role.

Let's fucking hold the role, Courtney.

Has anybody ever come and said,

let's hold the role to you
while you're doing your show.

You're doing your act.

Does anybody come and say,

hold the role Courtney.

Let's give the audience a little break

so that we can reset the fucking lights.

- This is unprofessional.
- This is unprofessional.

No it seems like everybody
here is a director.

You're a director, you're a
director, you're a director.

You're a director, you're a director.

Let's all call cut at the same exact time.

Let's all call cut at the same time.

One, two, three cut.

Cut, let's get it out of our system.

I wanna hear you say cut, Robby.

If you need to get
this out of your system...

No, no you need to get cut

out of your fucking system, say the word,

say it three times.

Say it three times, say it three times.

Cut, cut, cut.

- Say it three times Robbie.
- Alan.

Cut, I want to hear it come
out of your fucking mouth.

Say the word cut, say the word cut.

Robby, I said say the fucking word cut.

Say the word cut motherfucker.

What the fuck you gonna do bitch?

[Tense music]

[Sighing reverberates]

[Sighing reverberates]

[Woman's voice] You are a strong and
resilient person, frightened by nothing.

You are a strong and resilient person,
frightened by nothing.

You are a strong and resilient person,
frightened by nothing.

You are a strong and resilient person,
frightened by nothing.

[Dramatic music]

[Car tires skidding]

- [Dramatic music]
- [No audible dialogue]

[Woman] Boys! I saw the entire thing.

I'm a stenographer and an
officer of the LA County court

and I have a photographic memory.

Your tag number is 7WTL614.

This is a gray 2004 Subaru Outback.

You are a driver in your late thirties

with thinning dark hair and hazel eyes.

This offense could get you indicted

for involuntary manslaughter.

Or vehicular manslaughter at that.

I suggest you get to
wherever you are going.

Fucking losers.

Bitch.

I filmed it.

- He almost just hit me.
- I know.

I'll get you home.

Come on.

I'm walking across the street

and he just runs the stop sign
and fucking tries to hit me.

Let me take you home.

I'm Sally.

- What?
- I'm Sally.

My plans fell through, I'll
take you home, come on.

All right, this is it, thanks again.

Hey, would you be able
to do something for me?

[Parking brake]

Sure.

Could we get out of the car?

Yeah.

[Insects buzzing, chirping]

What's up?

I need to be seen.

- You need to be seen.
- I need to be acknowledged.

We're all animals,

We need other animals
and I need to be seen.

Right.

Okay

It's been years since
anybody's looked at me.

I'm looking at you.

No, I need to be seen,

seen.

Will you allow it?

Will you allow it?

Yes.

[Frogs croak; Crickets chirp]

Thank you.

Thank you.

Who is that?

[Man] Alan?

Yes.

Are you Alan?

Yes how did know my name, who are you?

I'm Darrell.

Your father hired me to
track your missing dog.

[Distorted music]

[Soft music, on radio]

[Disturbing music]

[Man] But I mean [clears throat]

I do have a final point
to make along these lines.

There's just like some
strange alchemy that goes on

on a film set, which I mean,

I think in the most optimal circumstances

translates something of lived experience

in a way that perhaps no other medium can,

but by virtue of this strange alchemy,

it's just not a thing that you can down

to the last molecule,

actually

- [Alan] Trace.
- [Man] Control or trace.

Or like it's just a formula
that can't be pursued.

And I think that so much of like

discussion of cinema tries to bring it

into the realm of, you know,

the well written novel,
the well made play.

When in point of fact, it's
like something else entirely.

I think in some ways more
akin to music that, you know,

also has these sort of,
- [Alan] Yeah.

[Man] Chaos elements in operation.

[Alan] 110%,

spot on.

What would you surmise from
the things that you've seen,

if you had sort of

a final thought, you know, like
anything that comes to mind,

[Man] Surmise?

[Alan] You’ve watched a few short
films that are all incomplete.

Is there any, yeah.

You know, not surmise from
it and I'm not asking you,

did you take away a fucking
theme or some shit but like,

I don't know, is there
a pervading thought?

[Man] A pervading thought?

No, there's not.

[Waves crashing]

[Alan] I feel like there
was one more thing

I was gonna mention about

the time that we were
shooting in Echo Park with

- that stairwell...
- No, no, no, no, no.

I think, I think I got it.

I think, I think we're good.

- You think we got it?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

- All right.
- Yeah, yeah.

We got it, we got it, we got
it, we got it, we got it.

- Let's cut it.
- Yeah, you know, okay.

- Let's hit the bricks.
- Okay, thanks again man.

If you guys can break down and

Jane said not to go through
the house this time.

So there's the like side gate there.

If you can just do that instead.

- Good to meet you guys.
- Thank you very much.

- Thanks man, all right.
- Appreciate it guys.

Fuckin' hey.

Was that good for you?

What?

Was that good for you?

[Alan] Yeah, I think so, man,
like I said, I feel like

there was one more thing I'm missing.

Can't remember, no dude, I appreciate you.

I appreciate it man, thanks
for watching the shit.

[Man] What the fuck am I here for

- if not this?
- [Alan chuckles]

What is it all about if not this?

[Alan] Yeah, exactly
dude. Let’s get a drink.

What up? How you doing, dude?

- Good to see you, man.
- Good to see me.

[Lively chatter]

I was second place.

Hey.

What's up?

- Dude I'm good.
- You're good?

I'm good, I'm good.

How'd the scooter work
out? How did the scooter go?

The scooters good.

The scooter was good.

Let me introduce you to
my friend over here, Brandon.

Brandon, wanna introduce
you to my friend Nathan.

Found out that he's having twins today.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Julia, on phone] Alan, where are you?
Keeps going to your voicemail.

Nathan texted sent me a
picture of Roo, thank God.

Listen, I'm not sure what
is going on over there.

But he also sent me a
picture of a naked woman

in his driveway that his
nest camera picked up I don’t

really get that.

But anyway, I'm going
to bed, it's late here.

Give Roo a hug for me.

Love you.

[Upbeat music]

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Would you be able to do something for me?

[Music continues]
