1
00:00:45,275 --> 00:00:48,439
Before we start, uh,
tonight's scene work,
2
00:00:49,070 --> 00:00:53,531
I just want to take a moment
to talk about our craft.
3
00:00:53,866 --> 00:00:55,232
Acting.
4
00:00:57,078 --> 00:00:58,489
So what is acting?
5
00:00:58,580 --> 00:00:59,946
I mean, when an actor acts,
6
00:01:00,039 --> 00:01:02,907
what is he or she...
7
00:01:04,377 --> 00:01:05,788
or they...
8
00:01:07,630 --> 00:01:08,871
actually doing?
9
00:01:11,050 --> 00:01:13,212
Well, on one level,
the answer is simple.
10
00:01:13,303 --> 00:01:16,796
They're making believe.
They are pretending.
11
00:01:17,765 --> 00:01:23,102
But on a... on a much deeper level
we need to ask ourselves
12
00:01:23,187 --> 00:01:24,803
what is really happening.
13
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:26,647
Well, you need to ask me,
14
00:01:26,733 --> 00:01:27,876
because I think
I'm the only one here
15
00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:29,186
who doesn't have a roommate.
16
00:01:29,277 --> 00:01:31,860
What's really happening...
17
00:01:31,946 --> 00:01:34,529
and I want you to
listen carefully.
18
00:01:35,575 --> 00:01:40,821
What's really happening
is that the actor is playing...
19
00:01:40,913 --> 00:01:42,245
God.
20
00:01:42,999 --> 00:01:46,288
Because, after all,
what does God do?
21
00:01:46,377 --> 00:01:47,788
God creates.
22
00:01:47,879 --> 00:01:50,587
God says,
"Here is a world," and bam!
23
00:01:51,007 --> 00:01:52,464
That world exists.
24
00:01:52,550 --> 00:01:55,759
God says,
"Here's life," and bam again!
25
00:01:56,554 --> 00:01:58,341
Life happens.
26
00:01:58,431 --> 00:02:01,344
God says,
"Here's death," and boom!
27
00:02:03,227 --> 00:02:04,513
Darkness.
28
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,767
The darkness returns.
29
00:02:15,948 --> 00:02:17,735
So what does this mean to us?
30
00:02:19,077 --> 00:02:20,989
How do we take this information
31
00:02:21,079 --> 00:02:23,992
and bring it into our work?
32
00:02:25,792 --> 00:02:30,537
The answer, my dear colleagues,
is that like God,
33
00:02:30,630 --> 00:02:32,917
we must love our creations.
34
00:02:33,007 --> 00:02:35,340
We must imbue them with life,
with character,
35
00:02:35,426 --> 00:02:38,544
with hope and dreams
and fatal flaws
36
00:02:38,638 --> 00:02:39,799
and then...
37
00:02:43,601 --> 00:02:44,762
Then...
38
00:02:46,521 --> 00:02:48,308
we must let them go.
39
00:02:50,858 --> 00:02:52,690
Because in the end...
40
00:02:53,695 --> 00:02:55,652
true love...
41
00:02:55,738 --> 00:02:57,104
God's love...
42
00:02:58,366 --> 00:02:59,823
is letting go.
43
00:03:01,244 --> 00:03:02,951
Yeah, uh, Sandy?
44
00:03:03,037 --> 00:03:06,747
Uh, I have an audition tomorrow
for a shampoo commercial.
45
00:03:07,542 --> 00:03:09,329
How do I love that?
46
00:03:09,419 --> 00:03:11,206
Wash your hair before you go.
47
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,337
Okay, love of character,
48
00:03:14,424 --> 00:03:16,632
not the pursuit of fame
or money
49
00:03:16,718 --> 00:03:20,337
is what separates the great actor,
the true artist...
50
00:03:20,430 --> 00:03:23,468
Yeah, uh, Sandy, one more question.
Uh, it's for Pantene.
51
00:03:23,558 --> 00:03:26,596
It doesn't matter
what the shampoo is, okay?
52
00:03:26,686 --> 00:03:28,643
- Just wash your hair.
- Thank you.
53
00:03:29,230 --> 00:03:31,187
That's why he's Sandy Kominsky
54
00:03:31,274 --> 00:03:33,231
and we are not.
55
00:03:34,527 --> 00:03:36,985
Ah, fuck it. Let's get started.
56
00:04:05,475 --> 00:04:07,091
Congratulations.
57
00:04:22,450 --> 00:04:24,316
Sorry I'm late.
58
00:04:24,410 --> 00:04:27,153
I assume you had a hard time
picking out the scarf.
59
00:04:27,246 --> 00:04:28,532
Oh, really? Really, huh?
60
00:04:28,623 --> 00:04:30,706
Right out of the gate,
you wanna bust my balls.
61
00:04:30,792 --> 00:04:32,499
They are a low-hanging fruit.
62
00:04:32,585 --> 00:04:34,668
Hello, Alex.
63
00:04:34,754 --> 00:04:37,497
Um, I'm gonna have
a Jack Daniels on the rocks
64
00:04:37,590 --> 00:04:39,547
and a diet Dr Pepper
65
00:04:39,634 --> 00:04:41,466
with a straw.
66
00:04:41,552 --> 00:04:43,760
I absolutely loathe
the way you drink.
67
00:04:43,846 --> 00:04:45,929
Well, the Jack keeps me
from killing myself
68
00:04:46,015 --> 00:04:48,553
and the Pepper keeps me regular.
69
00:04:49,435 --> 00:04:50,676
So, how we doin' on the sitcom?
70
00:04:50,770 --> 00:04:52,932
Forget it. You do not wanna be
in the sitcom.
71
00:04:53,022 --> 00:04:54,638
What are you talkin' about?
I mean...
72
00:04:54,732 --> 00:04:56,835
Those little pishers on the...
on The Big Bang Theory,
73
00:04:56,859 --> 00:04:58,253
they're making
a million bucks a week.
74
00:04:58,277 --> 00:04:59,859
Sandy, it's pablum. It's crap.
75
00:04:59,946 --> 00:05:02,359
You're one of the all-time
great acting coaches.
76
00:05:02,448 --> 00:05:05,191
What's it gonna look like,
you doin' a network sitcom?
77
00:05:05,284 --> 00:05:06,491
So I didn't get the part?
78
00:05:07,078 --> 00:05:10,321
No. CBS wanted
to go more ethnic.
79
00:05:10,414 --> 00:05:13,828
But look at this profile.
Who's more ethnic than I am?
80
00:05:13,918 --> 00:05:15,659
- Black people.
- Wait a minute.
81
00:05:15,753 --> 00:05:17,119
They're casting a black guy
82
00:05:17,213 --> 00:05:19,125
to play Josh Gad's grandfather?
83
00:05:19,215 --> 00:05:22,674
They dumped Josh.
They got some rapper, Ludacris.
84
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,877
Ludicrous, my ass.
It's bullshit.
85
00:05:25,221 --> 00:05:27,213
No, that's his name. Ludacris.
86
00:05:27,306 --> 00:05:28,717
- What's his name?
- Ludacris.
87
00:05:29,100 --> 00:05:31,183
- I said ludicrous.
- No, the rapper.
88
00:05:31,269 --> 00:05:32,851
- What about the rapper?
- Jesus Christ!
89
00:05:32,937 --> 00:05:34,678
You didn't get the sitcom.
90
00:05:34,772 --> 00:05:36,934
- Shit.
- Yeah.
91
00:05:38,359 --> 00:05:40,476
Look at this. For you, he runs.
92
00:05:43,739 --> 00:05:45,275
Thank you, Alex.
93
00:05:46,075 --> 00:05:48,095
They said they'd keep you in mind
for a recurring role
94
00:05:48,119 --> 00:05:49,610
or maybe a guest spot.
95
00:05:49,704 --> 00:05:51,696
Please don't sugarcoat it.
I'm a grown man.
96
00:05:51,789 --> 00:05:54,247
I'm not sugarcoating. I'm, uh...
97
00:05:54,333 --> 00:05:55,369
I'm lying.
98
00:06:00,756 --> 00:06:03,999
- How's Mindy?
- She's great. You know, she's...
99
00:06:04,093 --> 00:06:05,425
She's a terrific kid.
100
00:06:05,511 --> 00:06:07,197
I don't know how I'd run
that school without her.
101
00:06:07,221 --> 00:06:09,508
Well, yeah. Her mother did
a wonderful job raising her.
102
00:06:10,016 --> 00:06:11,723
Don't forget,
I raised her, too, Norman.
103
00:06:11,809 --> 00:06:13,266
Does she know that?
104
00:06:17,607 --> 00:06:18,643
How's Eileen?
105
00:06:20,735 --> 00:06:23,478
She... She's, uh...
106
00:06:24,530 --> 00:06:25,530
Not that great.
107
00:06:26,741 --> 00:06:28,107
So this last round
of treatment...
108
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,364
Didn't really...
didn't really have an effect.
109
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,571
I'm so sorry, Norman.
110
00:06:37,668 --> 00:06:39,204
Sandy, she'd, uh...
111
00:06:39,295 --> 00:06:41,412
really love to see you.
112
00:06:41,756 --> 00:06:43,998
Well, I-I'd love to see her
if-if I could,
113
00:06:44,091 --> 00:06:45,332
if that's all right, you know?
114
00:06:45,426 --> 00:06:47,338
Of course you can. Any time.
You know that.
115
00:06:47,428 --> 00:06:49,044
- Great. I'll do it.
- When?
116
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,797
Uh, I don't know.
I'll-I'll figure it out.
117
00:06:51,891 --> 00:06:54,053
- There's nothin' to figure out.
- There's things.
118
00:06:54,143 --> 00:06:56,351
There's things.
I mean, I'll let you know.
119
00:06:58,314 --> 00:06:59,646
Fine.
120
00:07:00,358 --> 00:07:02,600
- It is fine.
- Which is what I said.
121
00:07:02,693 --> 00:07:06,107
No, no. You said it with an attitude.
No, you said, "Fine."
122
00:07:06,489 --> 00:07:08,856
Forgive me. Fine.
123
00:07:08,950 --> 00:07:10,816
Jesus, let's just order.
124
00:07:11,452 --> 00:07:12,568
Fine.
125
00:07:16,332 --> 00:07:19,040
So how's your love life?
Are you still seeing, uh...
126
00:07:19,126 --> 00:07:22,665
- What's her name? Triscuit?
- Tristin. And no.
127
00:07:22,755 --> 00:07:24,917
Oh, that's too bad.
She was kind of cute.
128
00:07:25,007 --> 00:07:26,360
Well, we didn't have much
to talk about.
129
00:07:26,384 --> 00:07:27,795
You know, she was half my age.
130
00:07:27,885 --> 00:07:30,172
Listen, half your age
is still an old woman.
131
00:07:30,262 --> 00:07:31,469
Fuck you, Norman.
132
00:07:31,973 --> 00:07:33,384
Do the math.
133
00:07:34,517 --> 00:07:36,119
All right,
a couple of quick announcements
134
00:07:36,143 --> 00:07:37,759
before we get started tonight.
135
00:07:37,853 --> 00:07:41,767
For the 100th time, I am an actor.
I'm not a plumber.
136
00:07:41,857 --> 00:07:43,519
So please, please do not put
137
00:07:43,609 --> 00:07:47,193
any feminine hygiene products
down in the toilet.
138
00:07:47,279 --> 00:07:49,111
Come on, fellas.
Just help me out here.
139
00:07:50,408 --> 00:07:52,775
Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid.
140
00:07:52,868 --> 00:07:54,325
Mystery solved.
141
00:07:54,412 --> 00:07:56,074
Uh, second thing, I am canceling
142
00:07:56,163 --> 00:07:58,371
my Tuesday night
sitcom workshop.
143
00:07:58,457 --> 00:08:01,120
You guys did not
take my class to become
144
00:08:01,210 --> 00:08:03,748
a bunch of pandering,
overpaid clowns
145
00:08:03,838 --> 00:08:05,295
suckin' up for canned laughter
146
00:08:05,381 --> 00:08:07,122
and a People's fuckin'
Choice Award.
147
00:08:08,676 --> 00:08:10,338
I'd like a People's Choice Award.
148
00:08:10,428 --> 00:08:11,635
- Yeah.
- All right.
149
00:08:12,138 --> 00:08:13,470
Let's get our scenes up,
150
00:08:13,556 --> 00:08:15,639
see if we can prove
your parents wrong.
151
00:08:17,226 --> 00:08:19,684
Why don't we start with one
of our new students tonight?
152
00:08:19,770 --> 00:08:21,136
Um...
153
00:08:21,564 --> 00:08:23,726
What is your name?
154
00:08:23,816 --> 00:08:25,023
Um...
155
00:08:25,109 --> 00:08:27,522
- Uh, Theresa.
- Theresa, come on down.
156
00:08:28,696 --> 00:08:30,062
Oh, uh, okay.
157
00:08:32,533 --> 00:08:33,899
What do you got?
158
00:08:33,993 --> 00:08:36,280
Um, I've been working
on the eulogy speech
159
00:08:36,370 --> 00:08:37,486
from Steel Magnolias.
160
00:08:37,580 --> 00:08:38,912
Great.
161
00:08:39,415 --> 00:08:40,781
Please.
162
00:08:41,375 --> 00:08:42,536
Is standing okay?
163
00:08:42,626 --> 00:08:45,460
Have you ever seen anybody sit
while giving a eulogy?
164
00:08:46,130 --> 00:08:47,996
Um, I've never been
to a funeral.
165
00:08:48,090 --> 00:08:49,126
They stand.
166
00:08:49,216 --> 00:08:50,332
Okay.
167
00:08:50,426 --> 00:08:51,778
- So I should stand?
- You should stand.
168
00:08:51,802 --> 00:08:53,009
Okay.
169
00:08:53,596 --> 00:08:55,178
I'm gonna use the stool
as a gravestone.
170
00:08:55,514 --> 00:08:56,514
Why not?
171
00:08:58,517 --> 00:08:59,678
Hey, welcome back.
172
00:09:02,730 --> 00:09:04,471
Whenever you're ready.
173
00:09:07,860 --> 00:09:09,396
I'm fine.
174
00:09:09,862 --> 00:09:12,900
I'm fine! I'm fine! I'm fine!
175
00:09:13,491 --> 00:09:16,359
I can jog all the way
to Texas and back...
176
00:09:16,452 --> 00:09:18,239
but my daughter can't.
177
00:09:18,579 --> 00:09:20,195
Oh, she never could.
178
00:09:20,289 --> 00:09:24,283
Oh, God, I am so mad,
I don't know what to do!
179
00:09:24,376 --> 00:09:26,413
I wanna know why.
180
00:09:26,504 --> 00:09:29,417
I wanna know
why Shelby's life is over.
181
00:09:29,507 --> 00:09:31,373
I wanna know how that baby
will ever know
182
00:09:31,467 --> 00:09:33,584
how wonderful his mother was.
183
00:09:34,261 --> 00:09:37,129
Will he ever know
what she went through for him?
184
00:09:37,223 --> 00:09:40,216
Oh, God. I wanna know why!
185
00:09:41,352 --> 00:09:42,468
Why?
186
00:09:46,315 --> 00:09:47,431
Wow.
187
00:09:47,525 --> 00:09:49,517
- Yeah?
- Yeah. Yeah.
188
00:09:51,070 --> 00:09:53,653
Um, Sally Field did that
in the movie, right?
189
00:09:53,739 --> 00:09:54,980
Mm-hm.
190
00:09:55,324 --> 00:09:57,816
And if memory serves me...
191
00:09:57,910 --> 00:10:00,573
that was pretty much
the way she did it.
192
00:10:02,623 --> 00:10:04,615
Guess who her acting coach was.
193
00:10:04,959 --> 00:10:06,325
Oh, my God. Really?
194
00:10:08,212 --> 00:10:09,328
Wow.
195
00:10:09,421 --> 00:10:14,416
So... what I want you to do
is to try it again,
196
00:10:14,510 --> 00:10:16,092
but this time...
197
00:10:16,178 --> 00:10:18,135
show me how you would do it.
198
00:10:19,265 --> 00:10:20,381
I don't understand.
199
00:10:20,474 --> 00:10:22,841
Um, Sally did her thing with it,
200
00:10:22,935 --> 00:10:26,428
and now you do yours.
201
00:10:26,522 --> 00:10:28,684
You just lost your daughter
202
00:10:28,774 --> 00:10:30,686
after she had a baby.
203
00:10:30,776 --> 00:10:32,358
Same words.
204
00:10:46,333 --> 00:10:47,699
Okay.
205
00:10:48,335 --> 00:10:49,871
Theresa...
206
00:10:49,962 --> 00:10:50,962
trust.
207
00:10:51,046 --> 00:10:52,162
Okay.
208
00:11:01,056 --> 00:11:02,718
I'm fine.
209
00:11:02,808 --> 00:11:06,722
I'm fine! I'm fine! I'm fine!
210
00:11:06,812 --> 00:11:09,930
I can jog all the way
to Texas and back...
211
00:11:10,733 --> 00:11:12,190
but my daughter can't.
212
00:11:12,985 --> 00:11:14,817
Oh, she never could.
213
00:11:15,571 --> 00:11:18,609
Oh, God, I am so mad,
I don't know what to do.
214
00:11:20,743 --> 00:11:22,359
I wanna know why.
215
00:11:22,453 --> 00:11:25,287
I wanna know
why Shelby's life is over.
216
00:11:25,372 --> 00:11:27,910
I wanna know how
that baby will ever know
217
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,912
how wonderful her mother was.
218
00:11:31,837 --> 00:11:34,250
Will he ever know
what she went through for him?
219
00:11:36,008 --> 00:11:37,874
Oh, God. I wanna know why.
220
00:11:39,011 --> 00:11:40,468
Why?
221
00:11:50,814 --> 00:11:52,771
- How'd that feel?
- Um, I don't know.
222
00:11:52,858 --> 00:11:54,850
- More honest, I guess.
- Honest?
223
00:11:54,944 --> 00:11:57,903
Well, we certainly want
to avoid that.
224
00:11:57,988 --> 00:12:00,071
Any thoughts, opinions?
225
00:12:00,157 --> 00:12:03,116
Come on, don't be shy.
There are no wrong answers here.
226
00:12:03,202 --> 00:12:05,114
I liked it better
when she cried.
227
00:12:05,204 --> 00:12:07,116
- Yeah, that's wrong.
- Oh.
228
00:12:09,333 --> 00:12:12,246
I thought the s-second time
was better.
229
00:12:12,336 --> 00:12:14,077
- Because?
- Um...
230
00:12:14,964 --> 00:12:16,125
..you gave her a note.
231
00:12:16,215 --> 00:12:18,081
It was better
because I gave her a note?
232
00:12:18,175 --> 00:12:19,711
No, not-not just the note.
233
00:12:19,802 --> 00:12:21,418
Just that you obviously
wanted her...
234
00:12:22,471 --> 00:12:24,007
Could you pick someone else?
235
00:12:24,098 --> 00:12:25,698
Come on, don't tell me
what I wanna hear.
236
00:12:25,724 --> 00:12:27,681
Tell me what you feel.
237
00:12:27,768 --> 00:12:30,055
What you think.
Anybody. Come on.
238
00:12:30,145 --> 00:12:31,681
Yes.
239
00:12:32,064 --> 00:12:33,475
I thought the second way
240
00:12:33,565 --> 00:12:35,043
she did the speech
was more interesting.
241
00:12:35,067 --> 00:12:36,067
Okay. Why?
242
00:12:36,151 --> 00:12:39,519
Well, crying is a socially
acceptable way to express grief.
243
00:12:39,613 --> 00:12:41,104
It's what
you're expected to do.
244
00:12:41,198 --> 00:12:42,985
But people feel
all sorts of things
245
00:12:43,075 --> 00:12:44,486
when they lose
a loved one.
246
00:12:44,576 --> 00:12:46,533
It's just not okay
to show them.
247
00:12:46,620 --> 00:12:48,737
So venting her anger was,
uh, was more interesting.
248
00:12:48,831 --> 00:12:50,788
Yes. Yes,
and the writer knew it.
249
00:12:50,874 --> 00:12:52,957
It was right there
in the speech.
250
00:12:53,043 --> 00:12:55,035
She says she's mad.
251
00:12:55,629 --> 00:12:57,746
Thank you... um...
252
00:12:58,382 --> 00:13:00,795
- Lisa.
- Thank you, Lisa.
253
00:13:00,884 --> 00:13:02,716
You're welcome, Sandy.
254
00:13:05,347 --> 00:13:07,634
So I did good?
255
00:13:07,725 --> 00:13:10,308
Yeah, sure. Yeah. Yeah.
256
00:13:12,313 --> 00:13:15,556
So, uh... so what other great
actresses did you coach?
257
00:13:15,649 --> 00:13:17,686
Nah. I don't like to talk
about it.
258
00:13:17,776 --> 00:13:19,212
'Cause you know,
it's like name-dropping.
259
00:13:19,236 --> 00:13:20,602
Oh, come on!
260
00:13:20,696 --> 00:13:21,903
Faye Dunaway...
261
00:13:22,406 --> 00:13:25,774
...um, Diane Keaton,
Jessica Lange.
262
00:13:25,868 --> 00:13:28,201
Wow. That's some lineup.
263
00:13:28,996 --> 00:13:32,205
Did you, uh...
Did you sleep with any of them?
264
00:13:33,917 --> 00:13:37,081
No. No, I never mix
business with pleasure.
265
00:13:37,171 --> 00:13:39,208
Oh, wow.
266
00:13:39,298 --> 00:13:41,961
- You are a good actor.
- What? I'm serious.
267
00:13:42,051 --> 00:13:44,759
- Ugh.
- I-I didn't!
268
00:13:45,179 --> 00:13:47,762
Don't look at me like that.
I'm telling you the truth.
269
00:13:48,265 --> 00:13:51,599
Come on. I swear I won't think
less of you if you did.
270
00:13:55,439 --> 00:13:57,897
No, this is a trap.
This is a trap, right?
271
00:13:57,983 --> 00:13:59,645
Let's just...
let's just talk about you.
272
00:13:59,735 --> 00:14:01,852
What made you want
to study acting?
273
00:14:01,945 --> 00:14:03,857
Uh, let's see.
274
00:14:05,491 --> 00:14:08,484
I was a theater minor
in college
275
00:14:08,577 --> 00:14:10,534
and absolutely loved it.
276
00:14:11,246 --> 00:14:13,488
Probably the happiest time
in my life.
277
00:14:13,582 --> 00:14:15,619
Honestly, I, uh,
I don't know why I quit.
278
00:14:15,709 --> 00:14:18,122
I do. Fear of failure.
279
00:14:18,212 --> 00:14:19,669
Oh, about me,
you tell the truth?
280
00:14:21,548 --> 00:14:24,165
Well, uh, anyway,
long story short,
281
00:14:24,259 --> 00:14:26,797
when my husband
of many years
282
00:14:26,887 --> 00:14:29,846
turned out to be balls deep
in his dental hygienist...
283
00:14:29,932 --> 00:14:32,470
Sorry, still a little bitter.
284
00:14:32,559 --> 00:14:35,768
I decided to spend some of
my divorce settlement
285
00:14:35,854 --> 00:14:37,686
on acting classes.
286
00:14:37,773 --> 00:14:38,773
And a Porsche Cayenne.
287
00:14:39,233 --> 00:14:41,020
- It's a nice car.
- Mm.
288
00:14:41,110 --> 00:14:43,230
- Sorry about the marriage.
- Well, it all worked out.
289
00:14:43,278 --> 00:14:44,894
I mean, I got the house
290
00:14:44,988 --> 00:14:47,196
and he got
a Samoan mother-in-law.
291
00:14:49,451 --> 00:14:50,451
Yeah.
292
00:14:55,582 --> 00:14:56,582
Are you okay?
293
00:15:01,964 --> 00:15:04,798
Uh... Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
I'm fine. I'm just...
294
00:15:08,929 --> 00:15:10,511
Twenty-nine years.
295
00:15:11,390 --> 00:15:12,597
I just...
296
00:15:14,017 --> 00:15:16,634
I thought
we'd grow old together.
297
00:15:16,728 --> 00:15:19,596
You know, uh...
retire...
298
00:15:19,690 --> 00:15:21,602
drive around
the country in an RV...
299
00:15:23,026 --> 00:15:25,018
babysit the grandkids.
300
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,115
A whole fucking bullshit
fantasy.
301
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,034
Lisa, Lisa, it's gonna be okay.
You'll see.
302
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,488
New doors are gonna open,
new challenges,
303
00:15:36,582 --> 00:15:37,582
new people.
304
00:15:37,666 --> 00:15:40,283
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
305
00:15:40,377 --> 00:15:42,744
No, no, no, there-there's
nothing to be sorry about.
306
00:15:42,838 --> 00:15:45,421
- Everything okay here?
- Yeah, we just... It's fine.
307
00:15:45,507 --> 00:15:46,748
We just need the check, please.
308
00:15:46,842 --> 00:15:48,128
Hmm.
309
00:15:56,226 --> 00:15:58,309
Oh, man.
310
00:15:58,395 --> 00:16:01,138
I'm a good actor, too.
311
00:16:01,231 --> 00:16:03,894
Seriously,
why would you do that?
312
00:16:22,085 --> 00:16:24,042
Come on, you bastard.
313
00:16:26,423 --> 00:16:27,959
I made the speech,
I put up a sign.
314
00:16:28,050 --> 00:16:30,417
- What the hell else can I do?
- I don't know, Dad.
315
00:16:30,511 --> 00:16:33,003
Maybe hire a fucking plumber?
316
00:16:35,516 --> 00:16:38,099
- Ah, yes.
- See that? Who needs a plumber?
317
00:16:38,685 --> 00:16:39,892
Thanks.
318
00:16:40,771 --> 00:16:43,184
Sorry I missed class last night.
How'd it go?
319
00:16:43,273 --> 00:16:46,391
Good. Some of the new kids
are good. Where were you?
320
00:16:46,485 --> 00:16:48,272
Went to see Eileen.
321
00:16:48,362 --> 00:16:51,150
Oh, shit.
Been meaning to get over there.
322
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,356
How's she doing?
323
00:16:52,449 --> 00:16:53,690
It's awful.
324
00:16:53,784 --> 00:16:55,195
She can barely get out of bed.
325
00:16:55,285 --> 00:16:57,368
I'll call Norman
and figure out a time.
326
00:16:58,288 --> 00:16:59,495
No, you won't.
327
00:17:00,874 --> 00:17:02,456
What? What is that
supposed to mean?
328
00:17:02,543 --> 00:17:05,035
- Nothing. Never mind.
- No, no, tell me. Wha...
329
00:17:05,128 --> 00:17:06,835
When Uncle Jimmy
was in the hospital
330
00:17:06,922 --> 00:17:09,164
you couldn't visit
because you had a cold.
331
00:17:09,258 --> 00:17:10,465
And your friend, Barry...
332
00:17:10,551 --> 00:17:12,133
- What's his name?
- Melman, yeah.
333
00:17:12,219 --> 00:17:13,530
When Barry Melman
was in that hospice place
334
00:17:13,554 --> 00:17:15,136
you had a cold.
335
00:17:15,222 --> 00:17:17,805
I did, both times. I did not
want to get them sicker.
336
00:17:17,891 --> 00:17:20,258
You were worried you might give
the guy with brain cancer
337
00:17:20,352 --> 00:17:21,559
a case of the sniffles?
338
00:17:21,645 --> 00:17:24,228
Yes. It's called
common courtesy.
339
00:17:24,314 --> 00:17:26,397
Okay, fine.
Whatever you need to believe.
340
00:17:26,483 --> 00:17:28,145
Oh, no, no, no. Wait, wait.
341
00:17:28,235 --> 00:17:30,067
What do you believe?
342
00:17:30,779 --> 00:17:33,112
- You're afraid.
- Afraid? Oh...
343
00:17:33,198 --> 00:17:34,564
I mean, it's understandable.
344
00:17:34,658 --> 00:17:37,651
You're getting older. You don't
want to be... reminded.
345
00:17:37,744 --> 00:17:39,201
Reminded of what?
346
00:17:39,288 --> 00:17:40,699
- Really?
- Yeah.
347
00:17:40,789 --> 00:17:43,452
- You're gonna make me say it?
- Yeah. Come on, say it.
348
00:17:46,044 --> 00:17:47,205
- Death.
- Wrong.
349
00:17:47,296 --> 00:17:48,332
- Oh.
- That is so wrong.
350
00:17:48,422 --> 00:17:49,833
Okay, I'm walking away from you.
351
00:17:49,923 --> 00:17:51,915
Yes, I'll admit to fearing
a violent death,
352
00:17:52,009 --> 00:17:54,717
terrorism, tsunamis,
what have you,
353
00:17:54,803 --> 00:17:57,170
but natural death from old age?
354
00:17:57,264 --> 00:17:59,096
No. No, not at all.
355
00:17:59,182 --> 00:18:01,925
I see that as my next
great adventure.
356
00:18:02,019 --> 00:18:03,760
Tsunamis? Really?
357
00:18:03,854 --> 00:18:05,766
I've never been
a strong swimmer.
358
00:18:06,315 --> 00:18:09,058
Okay. Well, you know what?
I'm wrong. You're right.
359
00:18:09,151 --> 00:18:11,234
So, sorry I brought it up.
360
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,061
I'll see you later, Dad.
361
00:18:13,155 --> 00:18:16,774
And let us not forget
that I will live on in my work...
362
00:18:16,867 --> 00:18:18,654
...in my students.
363
00:18:18,744 --> 00:18:21,077
That's how... I cheat death.
364
00:18:29,504 --> 00:18:30,836
- Hey.
- Hmm?
365
00:18:30,922 --> 00:18:32,834
Good news.
I got the shampoo commercial.
366
00:18:33,342 --> 00:18:34,503
- What?
- Yeah.
367
00:18:34,593 --> 00:18:36,112
I did just like you told me
and nailed the audition.
368
00:18:36,136 --> 00:18:37,752
Oh, great. Congratulations.
369
00:18:37,846 --> 00:18:40,384
I'm gonna cash the check,
buy Bitcoin.
370
00:18:40,474 --> 00:18:41,681
It's the money of the future.
371
00:18:45,729 --> 00:18:47,140
Okay.
372
00:19:31,316 --> 00:19:32,316
Hey.
373
00:19:32,401 --> 00:19:34,643
- Goddamnit.
- What?
374
00:19:34,736 --> 00:19:37,194
I bet Eileen a hundred bucks
you wouldn't show up.
375
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,647
Very nice. Insult a guest.
376
00:19:40,283 --> 00:19:42,240
You want a warmer welcome?
377
00:19:42,327 --> 00:19:43,738
Give me a hundred bucks.
378
00:19:44,996 --> 00:19:46,487
What kind of flowers are those?
379
00:19:46,581 --> 00:19:48,243
I have no idea. Hm.
380
00:19:48,333 --> 00:19:50,950
Uh-huh. So your daughter
bought them.
381
00:19:51,044 --> 00:19:52,876
- Yeah.
- A-ha.
382
00:19:56,341 --> 00:19:58,082
You have a visitor.
383
00:19:58,176 --> 00:20:00,919
Oh, Sandy.
384
00:20:01,012 --> 00:20:02,012
Great.
385
00:20:03,682 --> 00:20:04,682
Pay me.
386
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,768
Hey, kiddo. How you feelin'?
387
00:20:08,854 --> 00:20:11,141
- Shit on a shingle.
- Mm.
388
00:20:11,231 --> 00:20:12,392
- Come here.
- Ah.
389
00:20:12,482 --> 00:20:14,519
- Oh, Sandy.
- Oh.
390
00:20:14,609 --> 00:20:16,601
Oh. Look at you.
391
00:20:16,695 --> 00:20:18,937
- These are for you.
- Oh, daffodils.
392
00:20:19,030 --> 00:20:20,191
I love daffodils.
393
00:20:22,534 --> 00:20:23,775
Daffodils.
394
00:20:26,121 --> 00:20:27,612
So, um...
395
00:20:29,124 --> 00:20:30,831
This is nice and comfy,
you know?
396
00:20:30,917 --> 00:20:32,124
Mm.
397
00:20:32,961 --> 00:20:34,953
- Who sleeps over there?
- I do.
398
00:20:35,046 --> 00:20:38,414
I keep telling him to sleep upstairs,
but he doesn't listen.
399
00:20:38,508 --> 00:20:40,966
What can I say? I like sleeping
in the same room as my wife.
400
00:20:41,052 --> 00:20:44,341
Ah, after all these years,
look at you, Mr. Romantic.
401
00:20:44,431 --> 00:20:45,763
Oh, romantic, my ass.
402
00:20:45,849 --> 00:20:48,136
He's just lookin'
for a little late-night action.
403
00:20:48,226 --> 00:20:50,309
Or the morning.
Morning's all right.
404
00:20:50,395 --> 00:20:52,728
- Oh, boy.
- You guys are kidding, right?
405
00:20:55,692 --> 00:20:57,183
So, listen...
406
00:20:57,819 --> 00:20:59,276
Sit down.
407
00:21:03,784 --> 00:21:06,777
- I need you to do me a favor.
- Sure. Anything, yeah.
408
00:21:06,870 --> 00:21:08,031
- When I'm gone...
- No, no.
409
00:21:08,121 --> 00:21:09,601
- Now, don't say that...
- No, listen.
410
00:21:10,499 --> 00:21:11,785
Listen. Don't talk.
411
00:21:11,875 --> 00:21:13,082
Sorry.
412
00:21:13,168 --> 00:21:16,081
When I'm gone,
I want you to look after Norman.
413
00:21:18,006 --> 00:21:20,214
- Me?
- Yeah, you.
414
00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:21,632
You're his best friend, right?
415
00:21:22,177 --> 00:21:24,840
Oh. Um, I don't know. Am I?
416
00:21:24,930 --> 00:21:26,842
No, but don't
argue with her.
417
00:21:27,641 --> 00:21:28,848
Yougotit.
418
00:21:29,476 --> 00:21:30,476
Thank you.
419
00:21:31,895 --> 00:21:33,727
Now, how about you?
420
00:21:33,814 --> 00:21:34,975
You seeing anybody?
421
00:21:35,398 --> 00:21:36,934
No, not really.
422
00:21:37,025 --> 00:21:39,233
I had coffee the other night
with one of my students.
423
00:21:39,319 --> 00:21:40,435
Oh, Sandy.
424
00:21:40,529 --> 00:21:41,895
Not another one of your
425
00:21:41,988 --> 00:21:44,401
25-year-old Nebraska spinners?
426
00:21:44,491 --> 00:21:46,949
No, no. This one
is more age-appropriate.
427
00:21:47,035 --> 00:21:48,367
How age-appropriate?
428
00:21:48,995 --> 00:21:51,032
Probably 50-ish?
429
00:21:51,122 --> 00:21:53,455
Really? Wow.
430
00:21:53,542 --> 00:21:55,909
- Original boobs?
- Eileen, it was just coffee.
431
00:21:56,002 --> 00:21:57,743
- Widowed? Divorced?
- Divorced.
432
00:21:57,838 --> 00:21:59,124
- Kids?
- Grown.
433
00:21:59,214 --> 00:22:00,671
- Money?
- Doesn't need mine.
434
00:22:00,757 --> 00:22:03,625
- Not like you have much.
- No, no.
435
00:22:04,010 --> 00:22:05,342
All right.
436
00:22:06,179 --> 00:22:08,466
- I approve.
- You approve?
437
00:22:08,557 --> 00:22:10,277
- When did you get to approve?
- Yeah, yeah.
438
00:22:10,350 --> 00:22:12,467
- Just, I want to meet her.
- We just had coffee...
439
00:22:12,561 --> 00:22:15,679
I have a good vibe
about this one. Set it up.
440
00:22:15,772 --> 00:22:17,013
Okay, fine, fine. Jesus.
441
00:22:17,107 --> 00:22:18,835
How do you... how do you put up
with this one?
442
00:22:18,859 --> 00:22:21,146
- Ooh, the nonstop sex.
- Oh, God.
443
00:22:21,236 --> 00:22:23,478
Okay. That's it.
444
00:22:23,572 --> 00:22:25,564
- Get out.
- Uh, that's it?
445
00:22:25,657 --> 00:22:27,068
That's it. Visit's over.
446
00:22:27,158 --> 00:22:28,990
Okay. All right.
447
00:22:30,495 --> 00:22:33,329
- Feel better.
- Oh, you're hilarious.
448
00:22:34,833 --> 00:22:36,199
Bye.
449
00:22:38,503 --> 00:22:39,960
Hey, Sandy.
450
00:22:41,965 --> 00:22:44,753
- I never said thank you.
- For what?
451
00:22:44,843 --> 00:22:47,631
Forty-seven years ago,
you introduced me to that guy.
452
00:22:48,054 --> 00:22:49,920
Oh, yeah. I did, didn't I?
453
00:22:50,015 --> 00:22:51,551
Yeah, you did.
454
00:22:51,641 --> 00:22:53,974
Norman, say thank you to Sandy.
455
00:22:54,060 --> 00:22:56,427
Ah, do I have to?
456
00:22:56,521 --> 00:22:57,637
You wanna get laid?
457
00:22:58,398 --> 00:23:00,185
Thank you, Sandy.
458
00:23:10,660 --> 00:23:11,901
Thanks for coming.
459
00:23:34,559 --> 00:23:36,050
Good!
460
00:23:36,144 --> 00:23:37,510
Let it out.
461
00:23:38,021 --> 00:23:40,729
This is all about relaxation.
462
00:23:41,399 --> 00:23:44,517
You cannot be present
with what's happening onstage
463
00:23:44,611 --> 00:23:47,354
unless you are relaxed.
464
00:23:47,739 --> 00:23:49,105
Tension...
465
00:23:49,199 --> 00:23:51,441
is the performance killer.
466
00:23:54,913 --> 00:23:57,075
- Stop.
- Am I doing it wrong?
467
00:23:57,165 --> 00:23:59,157
You look like
you're havin' a seizure.
468
00:23:59,250 --> 00:24:01,958
Sorry. Relaxing is hard for me.
469
00:24:02,045 --> 00:24:03,911
I had an emotionally
abusive childhood.
470
00:24:04,255 --> 00:24:06,087
- How old are you?
- Twenty-eight.
471
00:24:06,508 --> 00:24:08,465
Childhood's over. Relax.
472
00:24:10,428 --> 00:24:11,589
No.
473
00:24:12,514 --> 00:24:14,801
How's it goin'?
474
00:24:14,891 --> 00:24:16,883
This is bullshit.
I want my money back.
475
00:24:16,977 --> 00:24:20,095
- Sorry. No refunds.
- Okay, then take me to dinner.
476
00:24:20,814 --> 00:24:23,181
- You asking me on a date?
- I am.
477
00:24:23,274 --> 00:24:25,186
Now, you realize that coffee
and the pie
478
00:24:25,276 --> 00:24:27,438
at the diner
was a teacher-student thing?
479
00:24:27,529 --> 00:24:28,861
Okay. If you say so.
480
00:24:28,947 --> 00:24:30,688
I do. It's a whole new world
out there.
481
00:24:30,782 --> 00:24:33,365
I can't be using my position
as a teacher, as a mentor...
482
00:24:33,451 --> 00:24:35,408
For God's sake,
it's just dinner!
483
00:24:37,664 --> 00:24:39,030
I'd be honored.
484
00:24:40,208 --> 00:24:43,451
You're all witnesses.
She asked me.
485
00:24:49,718 --> 00:24:51,675
- Yeah?
- Yeah, how you doin'?
486
00:24:54,597 --> 00:24:55,713
Uh, your mother.
487
00:24:56,141 --> 00:24:58,224
Mom, he's here.
488
00:24:58,309 --> 00:24:59,925
Invite him in!
489
00:25:03,982 --> 00:25:05,473
Thank you.
490
00:25:08,570 --> 00:25:11,483
Hm. It's very nice.
491
00:25:12,198 --> 00:25:15,737
- What is?
- Your house, it's... it's nice.
492
00:25:18,121 --> 00:25:19,532
Sandy.
493
00:25:21,708 --> 00:25:23,199
And you are?
494
00:25:23,835 --> 00:25:25,451
- Mathew.
- Mathew.
495
00:25:25,545 --> 00:25:28,083
That's a...
that's a pretty good name.
496
00:25:28,173 --> 00:25:30,335
- People call you Mat?
- No.
497
00:25:30,884 --> 00:25:32,625
And why would they?
498
00:25:32,719 --> 00:25:34,426
Be right there, Sandy!
499
00:25:34,512 --> 00:25:36,094
No hurry!
500
00:25:36,181 --> 00:25:38,673
Just getting
to know Mat... thew.
501
00:25:41,770 --> 00:25:43,887
Yeah, making friends
wherever I go.
502
00:25:46,483 --> 00:25:49,726
- Sorry.
- Wow. You look great.
503
00:25:49,819 --> 00:25:51,981
Thanks. So, uh, so do you.
504
00:25:52,072 --> 00:25:54,029
So... shall we?
505
00:25:54,115 --> 00:25:55,593
You know, you didn't have
to come all this way.
506
00:25:55,617 --> 00:25:57,654
- I could've met you.
- No, I'm old school.
507
00:25:57,744 --> 00:26:01,033
You pick a lady up for dinner
and you return her safely home.
508
00:26:01,122 --> 00:26:03,956
That is so wonderfully archaic.
509
00:26:04,042 --> 00:26:06,250
Well, that's my rap name,
Wonderfully Archaic.
510
00:26:06,336 --> 00:26:08,578
Oh. See you later, Mathew!
511
00:26:12,175 --> 00:26:13,916
So you met my son.
512
00:26:14,010 --> 00:26:15,251
- I did.
- Yeah.
513
00:26:15,345 --> 00:26:17,507
- Kind of a dick, isn't he?
- Well, he's young.
514
00:26:17,597 --> 00:26:19,742
His mother's going out to dinner
with some strange guy.
515
00:26:19,766 --> 00:26:22,600
- Hm.
- Gotta cut him some slack.
516
00:26:23,061 --> 00:26:24,552
You are a very kind man.
517
00:26:39,410 --> 00:26:42,198
In 200 feet,
turn right on Oakdale Avenue.
518
00:26:42,288 --> 00:26:44,405
This is a real
classic Mercedes, isn't it?
519
00:26:44,499 --> 00:26:46,832
Oh, yeah. I bought it
from Heinrich Himmler.
520
00:26:47,293 --> 00:26:49,330
He only drove it to work.
521
00:26:49,420 --> 00:26:52,254
In 500 feet,
turn right on Ventura Boulevard.
522
00:26:52,340 --> 00:26:54,172
I know! Stop hounding me!
523
00:26:55,468 --> 00:26:57,676
- You know, I miss getting lost.
- Hm.
524
00:26:57,762 --> 00:27:00,049
- Remember the Thomas Guide?
- Oh, yeah.
525
00:27:00,140 --> 00:27:02,052
I used to live on the crease.
526
00:27:02,142 --> 00:27:03,599
Nobody could ever find my house.
527
00:27:05,979 --> 00:27:07,686
Now what?
528
00:27:07,772 --> 00:27:09,809
- Can you see who that is?
- Oh. Yeah.
529
00:27:10,567 --> 00:27:12,604
Ooh, Mindy.
530
00:27:12,694 --> 00:27:14,401
That is my daughter.
531
00:27:15,196 --> 00:27:16,196
Excuse me.
532
00:27:20,577 --> 00:27:22,614
Hey, sweetie. Everything okay?
533
00:27:24,455 --> 00:27:25,946
When?
534
00:27:27,500 --> 00:27:30,493
Oh, God. No, all right.
I'll meet you there.
535
00:27:31,796 --> 00:27:34,038
Mindy, I said I'm coming.
I'm coming.
536
00:27:35,258 --> 00:27:37,124
What's wrong?
537
00:27:37,218 --> 00:27:39,460
They just rushed a friend of mine
to the hospital.
538
00:27:39,554 --> 00:27:41,136
Is it serious?
539
00:27:41,222 --> 00:27:43,555
- I think so, yeah.
- Aw.
540
00:27:43,641 --> 00:27:45,257
I gotta go over there.
541
00:27:45,351 --> 00:27:46,887
Um...
542
00:27:46,978 --> 00:27:48,514
Could I please have
a rain check?
543
00:27:48,605 --> 00:27:50,312
- Oh, of course.
- I'm really sorry.
544
00:27:50,398 --> 00:27:54,187
No, no, no. Don't be ridiculous.
We'll do this another time. Hm.
545
00:27:54,277 --> 00:27:55,984
Thank you, thank you.
546
00:28:02,660 --> 00:28:03,946
This is gonna sound weird,
547
00:28:04,037 --> 00:28:07,201
but I told her about you,
and she wants to meet you.
548
00:28:07,290 --> 00:28:09,748
- Who?
- My... my sick friend.
549
00:28:09,834 --> 00:28:11,700
You told her about me?
550
00:28:12,420 --> 00:28:16,790
Yeah. You know, we were...
we were talking and... and it came up.
551
00:28:19,761 --> 00:28:21,127
Let's go.
552
00:28:21,846 --> 00:28:24,680
- You sure?
- I wanna meet her, too.
553
00:28:27,185 --> 00:28:28,517
Thank you.
554
00:28:46,371 --> 00:28:47,657
Mindy!
555
00:28:48,998 --> 00:28:49,998
Is she okay?
556
00:29:01,302 --> 00:29:03,510
You have to talk to him.
He won't leave her.
557
00:29:03,596 --> 00:29:05,132
Okay.
558
00:29:07,934 --> 00:29:10,051
- Dad.
- I'm going, all right?
559
00:29:15,525 --> 00:29:18,233
Lisa, this is
my daughter, Mindy.
560
00:29:19,195 --> 00:29:22,029
Mindy, this is my date, Lisa.
561
00:29:25,618 --> 00:29:26,699
You're on a date?
562
00:29:43,970 --> 00:29:45,427
Norman...
563
00:29:49,976 --> 00:29:51,433
Yep.
564
00:29:56,983 --> 00:29:58,815
She wanted to die at home.
I panicked.
565
00:29:58,901 --> 00:30:00,267
I called an ambulance.
566
00:30:00,361 --> 00:30:01,602
I'm so sorry.
567
00:30:01,696 --> 00:30:03,779
She got terr-terribly...
568
00:30:05,575 --> 00:30:06,736
angry at me.
569
00:30:08,494 --> 00:30:11,487
She was in extraordinary pain.
What could I do?
570
00:30:13,374 --> 00:30:15,331
It's all right.
Let-let's go, Norman.
571
00:30:15,418 --> 00:30:17,910
No. I'm staying here.
I don't want to leave her.
572
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,382
You're not leaving her.
573
00:30:28,806 --> 00:30:31,344
She's always
gonna be right here.
574
00:30:33,353 --> 00:30:35,936
You're always gonna
remember her right here.
575
00:30:39,150 --> 00:30:41,813
- She's gonna be right here.
- Thanks.
576
00:30:41,903 --> 00:30:44,441
Thank you. Well...
well, it's a nice thought.
577
00:30:44,530 --> 00:30:46,442
I appreciate that. Thank you.
578
00:30:48,034 --> 00:30:49,491
Come on. Let's go.
579
00:31:05,426 --> 00:31:08,965
Is that your line, or did you
hear it in a movie somewhere?
580
00:31:09,055 --> 00:31:10,671
I'm really not sure.
581
00:31:15,103 --> 00:31:17,060
- Who-who is, who...
- Oh, this is Lisa.
582
00:31:17,146 --> 00:31:19,308
Um, I... I mentioned her
to Eileen
583
00:31:19,399 --> 00:31:22,437
and Eileen wanted to
meet her and...
584
00:31:22,527 --> 00:31:24,439
I don't understand.
Uh, Eileen...
585
00:31:24,529 --> 00:31:27,522
Well, we didn't, we didn't know
that when we came down here.
586
00:31:27,615 --> 00:31:28,822
Oh, yeah.
587
00:31:29,951 --> 00:31:31,658
How are you? Nice to meet you.
588
00:31:32,036 --> 00:31:34,244
- I'm sorry for your loss.
- Thank you.
589
00:31:35,456 --> 00:31:37,413
You can do better than him.
590
00:31:40,211 --> 00:31:43,875
Mindy, can you take Lisa home,
and, uh, I'll take Norman?
591
00:31:43,965 --> 00:31:45,297
- Yeah.
- Okay?
592
00:31:45,383 --> 00:31:46,624
Thanks, sweetie.
593
00:31:54,475 --> 00:31:56,262
When was the last time you ate?
594
00:31:56,978 --> 00:31:58,344
I don't know.
595
00:31:59,939 --> 00:32:02,397
What do you say
we go find some takeout?
596
00:32:02,483 --> 00:32:03,644
Uh-huh.
597
00:32:10,158 --> 00:32:11,820
How do you get out of here?
598
00:32:12,660 --> 00:32:14,117
Not a clue.
