said I'd kill it
18
00:02:24,912 --> 00:02:26,914
when I moved from
Nebraska to Hollywood.
19
00:02:28,682 --> 00:02:29,617
They were right.

I ran. I ran
away, screaming for help.
23
00:02:43,297 --> 00:02:44,632
- [man] Did help come?
- No!
24
00:02:45,366 --> 00:02:47,100
I was alone.
25
00:02:47,134 --> 00:02:49,937
Alone with that awful
thing that had been David.
26
00:02:49,970 --> 00:02:53,941
[Holly] I was just another
small-town girl with big star dreams,
27
00:02:53,974 --> 00:02:56,344
one of thousands of hopefuls
trying to make it as an actress.
28
00:02:56,377 --> 00:02:58,579
That's why I wanted to forget.
29
00:02:58,612 --> 00:03:01,515
I'd literally taken
the bus to Hollywood.
30
00:03:01,549 --> 00:03:02,850
Forever.
31
00:03:02,883 --> 00:03:05,286
I know you'd think lunch meat,
32
00:03:05,319 --> 00:03:06,554
but you don't know me.
33
00:03:09,290 --> 00:03:10,190
End scene.
34
00:03:10,991 --> 00:03:14,328
End scene, yes. Uh, end scene.
35
00:03:17,331 --> 00:03:18,632
What's going on, Holly?
36
00:03:19,867 --> 00:03:22,169
That wall is back up again.
37
00:03:22,202 --> 00:03:23,304
Really?
38
00:03:23,337 --> 00:03:25,138
Yes, really.
39
00:03:25,172 --> 00:03:28,309
When I did my scene
in Heat with Al Pacino-
40
00:03:28,342 --> 00:03:30,177
[Holly] He had
three lines with Al Pacino.
41
00:03:30,210 --> 00:03:32,012
The intensity was incredible.
42
00:03:32,045 --> 00:03:34,348
And that's what
you need to find here.
43
00:03:34,382 --> 00:03:38,986
He gave me 150% with every line.
44
00:03:39,019 --> 00:03:40,321
Every time.
45
00:03:41,221 --> 00:03:44,057
[sighs] Clay, um,
how do you feel? In or out?
46
00:03:44,091 --> 00:03:45,993
In. Like totally there.
47
00:03:46,026 --> 00:03:49,963
Well, agreed. And I can see
why they booked you on CSI.
48
00:03:49,997 --> 00:03:51,164
Let's give him some love.
49
00:03:51,198 --> 00:03:52,833
- [group clapping]
- Come on.
50
00:03:52,866 --> 00:03:55,135
There you go, yeah. Huh?
That's it. [chuckles] Right.
51
00:03:55,168 --> 00:03:57,004
Uh, no. Okay.
52
00:03:57,037 --> 00:03:59,340
You really locked in with
that medical way of thinking.
53
00:03:59,373 --> 00:04:01,509
- [Clay] Right.
- Nice. Holly?
54
00:04:01,542 --> 00:04:03,977
I felt in. I really did.
55
00:04:04,011 --> 00:04:06,847
Well, I'll keep
giving you the same note.
56
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,884
Find and show
your vulnerability. All right?
57
00:04:10,918 --> 00:04:13,521
I'm gonna ask
that you and Clay keep working.
58
00:04:13,554 --> 00:04:15,823
If you're gonna use
this for the showcase,
59
00:04:15,856 --> 00:04:17,691
it's gotta be better.
60
00:04:17,725 --> 00:04:21,762
[sighs] I strongly suggest
you book a private lesson.
61
00:04:21,795 --> 00:04:24,097
[soft gentle menacing music]
62
00:04:24,131 --> 00:04:26,099
[Holly] Private lesson.
63
00:04:26,133 --> 00:04:29,370
If I'd taken one and
fucked him like everyone else,
64
00:04:29,403 --> 00:04:31,238
he'd tell me
the scene was perfect.
65
00:04:33,441 --> 00:04:36,810
[gentle brooding music]
66
00:04:40,247 --> 00:04:43,116
Hey, we gotta nail that scene
for the showcase down.
67
00:04:43,150 --> 00:04:45,386
There's two
casting directors coming.
68
00:04:45,419 --> 00:04:48,188
Yeah, totally, but I,
uh, we don't wanna just recreate the movie,
69
00:04:48,221 --> 00:04:49,690
we gotta make it our own thing.
70
00:04:49,723 --> 00:04:51,959
There was a movie. Is it good?
71
00:04:51,992 --> 00:04:54,094
[scoffs] Yeah.
72
00:04:54,127 --> 00:04:57,431
Gore Vidal, Montgomery Clift,
Katharine Hepburn?
73
00:04:57,465 --> 00:04:59,633
- Yeah?
- Elizabeth Taylor? You tell me.
74
00:04:59,667 --> 00:05:02,269
Hey, we should go back
to my place and Netflix it.
75
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:04,538
We can rehearse
and smoke some pot.
76
00:05:04,572 --> 00:05:07,541
Clay actually
thinks this is original.
77
00:05:07,575 --> 00:05:09,543
Can't, I got work at 5:00.
78
00:05:09,577 --> 00:05:10,578
No, it's good pot.
79
00:05:11,412 --> 00:05:12,980
I know what that's code for.
80
00:05:13,013 --> 00:05:16,149
- [Clay moaning]Ah, yeah.
- [bed creaking]
81
00:05:16,183 --> 00:05:18,486
But let's find a time
to rehearse tomorrow, okay?
82
00:05:18,519 --> 00:05:19,987
Yeah.
83
00:05:20,020 --> 00:05:21,321
[traffic whooshing]
84
00:05:21,355 --> 00:05:23,991
[slow upbeat music]
85
00:05:24,024 --> 00:05:25,826
[Holly] I'd been
in Los Angeles a year
86
00:05:25,859 --> 00:05:28,128
and still hadn't booked
anything more than a small part
87
00:05:28,161 --> 00:05:30,163
in a movie
that never got released.
88
00:05:31,932 --> 00:05:34,768
I was living paycheck
to paycheck on the good weeks,
89
00:05:34,802 --> 00:05:37,270
barely making my rent
and student loan payments.
90
00:05:39,206 --> 00:05:41,241
Sometimes I'd
drive up into the Hills
91
00:05:41,274 --> 00:05:42,943
to look at
the mansions built way back
92
00:05:42,976 --> 00:05:44,778
during the silent screen era,
93
00:05:45,846 --> 00:05:49,049
before Beverly Hills was just
a gleam in a developer's eye.
94
00:05:51,284 --> 00:05:54,187
I'd imagine what it would
be like to have money like that,
95
00:05:55,556 --> 00:05:57,057
and then I'd remind myself,
96
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:00,628
it's just a matter of time.
97
00:06:02,062 --> 00:06:04,832
Here in LA,
everyone raved about yoga,
98
00:06:04,865 --> 00:06:06,967
[gunfire bangs]
99
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,103
but I preferred
to relax the American way.
100
00:06:10,137 --> 00:06:13,974
[gunfire banging]
101
00:06:17,077 --> 00:06:19,346
[Holly] They say if a gun
shows up in the first act,
102
00:06:19,379 --> 00:06:20,981
you'll see it in the third.
103
00:06:21,014 --> 00:06:23,484
- [traffic whooshing]
- [car horns honking]
104
00:06:23,517 --> 00:06:25,553
One thing's for sure,
105
00:06:25,586 --> 00:06:27,655
an hour of target practice
was what I needed
106
00:06:27,688 --> 00:06:29,757
to get through
a night of slinging pasta.
107
00:06:31,058 --> 00:06:33,861
[soft gentle upbeat music]
108
00:06:40,534 --> 00:06:43,170
[Holly] I was working
the 5:00 to 11:00 shift at Orzo,
109
00:06:44,404 --> 00:06:47,374
a restaurant that catered
to Eastside hipster types.
110
00:06:48,442 --> 00:06:51,479
Men with leather jackets
that cost more than my rent.
111
00:06:51,512 --> 00:06:54,582
Women with perfect
complexions and $300 haircuts.
112
00:06:55,382 --> 00:06:57,518
You'd think they could
leave me a decent tip,
113
00:06:57,551 --> 00:07:00,488
but they looked at me
like I was a piece of furniture.
114
00:07:00,521 --> 00:07:01,922
We'll take the Bolognese.
115
00:07:01,955 --> 00:07:03,591
Thank you.
116
00:07:03,624 --> 00:07:07,828
It was a night like
any other, until I saw him.
117
00:07:07,861 --> 00:07:11,131
Hi, I'm Holly. Can I get
you something to drink?
118
00:07:11,732 --> 00:07:13,000
What do you recommend?
119
00:07:13,534 --> 00:07:15,903
We have a great
Barolo by the glass.
120
00:07:15,936 --> 00:07:19,339
I'll have the classico.
Any specials tonight?
121
00:07:19,372 --> 00:07:22,576
Yes, we have
an ossobuco alla Milanese,
122
00:07:22,610 --> 00:07:24,244
a butternut squash ravioli
123
00:07:24,277 --> 00:07:26,046
with a butter sage sauce,
124
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:28,482
and an ahi tuna
carpaccio with arugula.
125
00:07:29,416 --> 00:07:32,853
So Holly, would you say the, uh,
126
00:07:32,886 --> 00:07:34,588
the ahi or the ossobuco?
127
00:07:35,989 --> 00:07:38,559
Why do I have the feeling
that if I say the ahi,
128
00:07:38,592 --> 00:07:39,893
you'd order the osso?
129
00:07:40,894 --> 00:07:42,796
Do I really seem that contrary?
130
00:07:42,830 --> 00:07:46,900
- [diners softly chattering]
- [soft slow tense music]
131
00:07:46,934 --> 00:07:50,838
Tell me, um,
what's your favorite movie?
132
00:07:52,172 --> 00:07:57,044
Um, Out of the Past, but
the 1947 version, of course.
133
00:07:57,077 --> 00:07:58,245
That's impressive.
134
00:07:59,513 --> 00:08:02,282
They say that the day you die,
135
00:08:03,183 --> 00:08:04,952
your name is written on a cloud.
136
00:08:04,985 --> 00:08:06,654
Exactly.
137
00:08:06,687 --> 00:08:09,089
It was the bottom of
the barrel and I scraped it.
138
00:08:09,857 --> 00:08:11,091
- No way.
- Waitress?
139
00:08:12,492 --> 00:08:15,128
Um, so the ahi is very popular,
140
00:08:15,162 --> 00:08:17,898
but I personally
prefer the osso.
141
00:08:17,931 --> 00:08:21,201
Okay, great.
Then I will have the tuna.
142
00:08:21,769 --> 00:08:24,004
- Great choice.
- Thank you.
143
00:08:24,037 --> 00:08:25,939
- May I?
- Oh, please.
144
00:08:25,973 --> 00:08:28,008
I'll be right
back with your classico.
145
00:08:29,109 --> 00:08:32,546
[gentle bright music]
146
00:08:34,882 --> 00:08:38,451
It got busy then.
People and wine and opinions.
147
00:08:39,286 --> 00:08:41,121
Big steaming bowls of pasta.
148
00:08:44,224 --> 00:08:46,293
I decided to have
a little fun and fuck with him
149
00:08:46,326 --> 00:08:47,861
by switching out his entree.
150
00:08:49,863 --> 00:08:50,931
Perfect.
151
00:08:50,964 --> 00:08:52,399
Maybe that was my first mistake.
152
00:08:53,667 --> 00:08:58,038
[gentle bright music continues]
153
00:08:58,071 --> 00:09:01,074
[cutlery clattering]
154
00:09:03,977 --> 00:09:04,912
- Enjoy.
- Ah!
155
00:09:12,385 --> 00:09:13,987
Hey, can I get
another carafe of...
156
00:09:14,021 --> 00:09:16,790
He watched me like
a hawk watches a mouse.
157
00:09:16,824 --> 00:09:18,158
You holding up?
158
00:09:18,191 --> 00:09:20,493
Yes. It's better
for me when it's busy.
159
00:09:20,527 --> 00:09:22,129
Fuck table eight.
160
00:09:22,162 --> 00:09:24,632
They drop 300 on dinner
and leave me 10 bucks.
161
00:09:24,665 --> 00:09:26,867
- Assholes.
- I need two mojitos.
162
00:09:26,900 --> 00:09:29,502
Who the fuck
drinks mojitos anymore?
163
00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:32,339
Oh, do you guys know anybody
who's looking for an apartment?
164
00:09:32,372 --> 00:09:34,374
My roommate just
booked a series and moved out
165
00:09:34,407 --> 00:09:36,744
and I really need somebody
by the end of the month.
166
00:09:36,777 --> 00:09:38,578
I mean, I can ask around.
167
00:09:38,612 --> 00:09:40,347
Thank you.
168
00:09:40,380 --> 00:09:42,249
[gentle bright music continues]
169
00:09:42,282 --> 00:09:45,252
Hey, he's been
watching you all night.
170
00:09:45,285 --> 00:09:47,220
- Creeper?
- Hmm, harmless.
171
00:09:47,254 --> 00:09:50,057
He's rocking that male pattern
baldness though. [laughs]
172
00:09:50,090 --> 00:09:52,893
[waitress laughs]
173
00:09:52,926 --> 00:09:57,064
[bright upbeat music continues]
174
00:09:57,097 --> 00:09:58,331
Anything else?
175
00:09:58,365 --> 00:10:00,000
Uh, an espresso, please.
176
00:10:00,033 --> 00:10:01,468
I'm Richard, by the way.
177
00:10:03,436 --> 00:10:04,604
How was the osso?
178
00:10:04,638 --> 00:10:05,806
It was a little fishy.
179
00:10:06,907 --> 00:10:11,945
Uh, excuse me, but you've, um,
you've got a spot exactly there.
180
00:10:14,648 --> 00:10:16,183
Can I get
you something for dessert?
181
00:10:16,216 --> 00:10:18,752
No, just the espresso.
And the check.
182
00:10:20,420 --> 00:10:23,991
[diners softly chattering]
183
00:10:27,961 --> 00:10:29,629
Fuck it.
184
00:10:29,663 --> 00:10:32,199
I left the spot
right there on my chest.
185
00:10:32,232 --> 00:10:33,901
I didn't care what he thought.
186
00:10:33,934 --> 00:10:35,568
He was trying to throw me,
187
00:10:35,602 --> 00:10:37,570
but I wasn't that type of girl.
188
00:10:37,604 --> 00:10:39,272
Not even then.
189
00:10:39,306 --> 00:10:42,509
[gentle bright music]
190
00:10:49,282 --> 00:10:50,751
Anything else?
191
00:10:50,784 --> 00:10:53,787
I am, uh, heading
over to the Hillhurst.
192
00:10:53,821 --> 00:10:54,955
Why don't
you join me for a drink
193
00:10:54,988 --> 00:10:56,556
when you're done here, huh?
194
00:10:56,589 --> 00:10:58,926
I can't. I have
to wash my shirt.
195
00:11:01,294 --> 00:11:03,130
[soft gentle music]
196
00:11:03,163 --> 00:11:04,832
There was something about him.
197
00:11:04,865 --> 00:11:06,734
I can't say what it was,
198
00:11:06,767 --> 00:11:10,670
but when he left the place
went flat, like old soda pop.
199
00:11:10,704 --> 00:11:15,342
- [soft slow melancholic music]
- [traffic whooshing]
200
00:11:15,375 --> 00:11:19,346
[bike engine rattling]
201
00:11:19,379 --> 00:11:20,948
[Holly] For some reason,
I couldn't get the guy
202
00:11:20,981 --> 00:11:22,515
at table eight out of my mind.
203
00:11:23,683 --> 00:11:26,486
He was old, but he wasn't
a needy, struggling actor,
204
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:29,656
and I was in a weird mood.
205
00:11:29,689 --> 00:11:30,991
He intrigued me.
206
00:11:34,061 --> 00:11:35,295
What the hell?
207
00:11:35,829 --> 00:11:37,564
I could use a free drink
208
00:11:38,832 --> 00:11:42,469
and it wasn't like
I was gonna fuck him.
209
00:11:43,370 --> 00:11:46,473
[soft upbeat music]
210
00:11:51,178 --> 00:11:52,846
[car horns honking]
211
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,515
[upbeat music]
212
00:12:03,156 --> 00:12:04,657
Did you get the spot out?
213
00:12:04,691 --> 00:12:06,026
Out, out, damn spot.
214
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:09,629
How you liking in LA?
215
00:12:09,662 --> 00:12:11,631
It was intended to startle me,
216
00:12:11,664 --> 00:12:13,033
like using my name.
217
00:12:13,066 --> 00:12:15,168
But it was such an easy bet,
218
00:12:15,202 --> 00:12:16,970
everyone here was
from somewhere else.
219
00:12:17,004 --> 00:12:18,538
Can I have a whiskey neat?
220
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,375
- LA?
- Mm-hmm.
221
00:12:22,409 --> 00:12:23,844
I like it.
222
00:12:23,877 --> 00:12:25,245
I like every
fucking thing about it.
223
00:12:25,278 --> 00:12:26,746
Where you from?
224
00:12:26,780 --> 00:12:28,081
Uh, right here, actually.
225
00:12:28,115 --> 00:12:29,516
Bullshit.
226
00:12:29,549 --> 00:12:33,420
Hm, no, uh,
went to, uh, Marshall.
227
00:12:33,453 --> 00:12:35,688
Must be a mile away,
it's a little nostalgic already.
228
00:12:35,722 --> 00:12:39,893
Um, King Junior and, uh,
Franklin Avenue Elementary.
229
00:12:39,927 --> 00:12:41,795
It's hard to picture
you as a kid.
230
00:12:44,431 --> 00:12:45,899
I was a difficult child.
231
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,701
Never lived up to my potential.
232
00:12:49,569 --> 00:12:53,706
I bet you that
you were a little angel.
233
00:12:53,740 --> 00:12:56,276
[gentle spirited music]
234
00:12:56,309 --> 00:12:57,777
[Holly] Suddenly I knew.
235
00:12:58,611 --> 00:13:02,015
He was or had been an actor.
236
00:13:02,049 --> 00:13:03,951
Hell, everything
he said had a character's name
237
00:13:03,984 --> 00:13:04,918
written above it.
238
00:13:06,719 --> 00:13:09,289
I did well. I was valedictorian.
239
00:13:10,157 --> 00:13:11,959
Played flute in
the marching band.
240
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,028
And then you decided to act
241
00:13:15,062 --> 00:13:17,630
at, um, Champaign-Urbana
242
00:13:17,664 --> 00:13:21,634
or, um, Lawrence, Kansas?
243
00:13:21,668 --> 00:13:24,537
[clicks tongue] I'd have thought
you'd assume I'm from Chicago.
244
00:13:24,571 --> 00:13:27,807
You have this, uh,
flat Midwestern twang.
245
00:13:29,142 --> 00:13:31,979
Just a soupçon of
corn fields and apple pie.
246
00:13:32,012 --> 00:13:33,413
That's Hastings, all right.
247
00:13:34,481 --> 00:13:36,416
Now you're here, trying
to break into the big time.
248
00:13:36,449 --> 00:13:38,085
How's your climb of fame going?
249
00:13:38,118 --> 00:13:40,087
It seems they tore
Schwab's down a while back,
250
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,355
but nobody told me.
251
00:13:43,256 --> 00:13:46,459
- Naturally you take class,
Boyd Stocker? - Chris Valente.
252
00:13:46,493 --> 00:13:48,595
- Oh, ballet on 3rd Street?
- Tap.
253
00:13:49,796 --> 00:13:52,599
[gentle upbeat music]
254
00:13:52,632 --> 00:13:53,867
You've come close,
255
00:13:55,168 --> 00:13:57,504
but so far the star
never broke her ankle.
256
00:13:59,606 --> 00:14:02,242
I have an acting
showcase coming up.
257
00:14:02,275 --> 00:14:04,244
Casting directors, agents.
258
00:14:04,277 --> 00:14:05,645
Showcase?
259
00:14:06,279 --> 00:14:10,283
Well, those are a dime a dozen,
but I think you'll catch on.
260
00:14:11,318 --> 00:14:14,287
You have this spark. An edge.
261
00:14:16,156 --> 00:14:17,657
So why'd you stop acting?
262
00:14:19,059 --> 00:14:21,294
[gentle upbeat music]
263
00:14:21,328 --> 00:14:25,865
What is this,
this fascination with acting?
264
00:14:27,567 --> 00:14:30,870
Seeing where
our personalities line up with those fictional characters
265
00:14:30,904 --> 00:14:34,174
and then... [sighs]
just fusing them with life.
266
00:14:35,575 --> 00:14:36,809
I don't know.
267
00:14:37,844 --> 00:14:40,080
Got tired of
dredging up all that life.
268
00:14:42,983 --> 00:14:46,753
Okay. So what do
you do now, high and climbing?
269
00:14:48,388 --> 00:14:51,258
A number of things.
I, uh, I coach.
270
00:14:51,658 --> 00:14:54,194
I'm writing a, a book, actually.
271
00:14:54,227 --> 00:14:57,597
"The Three Essential Musts
of Successful Actors."
272
00:15:00,500 --> 00:15:02,635
- Musts?
- Yeah. You know, uh...
273
00:15:02,669 --> 00:15:04,938
[clears throat] must do this,
must do that.
274
00:15:06,173 --> 00:15:08,808
But yeah, I don't wanna
talk about it and jinx it.
275
00:15:08,841 --> 00:15:10,310
Of course not.
276
00:15:10,343 --> 00:15:12,980
[sultry upbeat music]
277
00:15:13,013 --> 00:15:14,547
I will tell you this though.
278
00:15:15,115 --> 00:15:17,217
The first thing I tell my actors
279
00:15:18,085 --> 00:15:21,989
is that actors have
to have interesting lives.
280
00:15:22,022 --> 00:15:27,260
To just try crazy things.
281
00:15:29,062 --> 00:15:31,098
Do you like to try
crazy things, Holly?
282
00:15:31,598 --> 00:15:33,800
[Holly] Oh boy. Here we go.
283
00:15:34,734 --> 00:15:36,569
Damn if I wasn't fascinated.
284
00:15:37,304 --> 00:15:38,571
Do you like animals?
285
00:15:39,239 --> 00:15:41,274
[Holly chuckles]
286
00:15:41,308 --> 00:15:42,775
Excuse me?
287
00:15:42,809 --> 00:15:46,079
I, uh, I have this problem, um.
288
00:15:47,314 --> 00:15:48,581
I found this dog...
289
00:15:48,615 --> 00:15:51,018
- Mm-hmm.
- And I need to return it.
290
00:15:51,051 --> 00:15:54,054
Okay, so why don't you?
291
00:15:54,087 --> 00:15:55,755
Um, well, it's not that simple.
292
00:15:55,788 --> 00:15:58,791
Um, the dog
belongs to Mariah McKay.
293
00:15:59,592 --> 00:16:02,962
- Do you know who that is?
- Sure. The bad girl Brooke Shields.
294
00:16:04,231 --> 00:16:05,965
Well, I, I saw the name-
295
00:16:05,999 --> 00:16:09,202
- Uh-huh.
- And address on the tag
296
00:16:09,236 --> 00:16:12,872
and uh, well,
I was gonna return it,
297
00:16:12,905 --> 00:16:14,674
but then I started to wonder,
298
00:16:15,608 --> 00:16:18,111
what if she,
you know, thinks I stole it?
299
00:16:18,145 --> 00:16:20,313
It's a problem, don't you think?
300
00:16:21,614 --> 00:16:23,616
It's only a problem
if you want a reward,
301
00:16:23,650 --> 00:16:26,486
otherwise,
just be a good neighbor.
302
00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:29,156
[gentle music]
303
00:16:30,323 --> 00:16:31,958
But I'm not such
a good neighbor, Holly,
304
00:16:31,991 --> 00:16:33,793
I really do want the money.
305
00:16:35,962 --> 00:16:39,099
I mean, if you saw
a couple of thousand bucks
306
00:16:39,132 --> 00:16:43,236
on the ground,
wouldn't you pick it up?
307
00:16:43,270 --> 00:16:46,306
[gentle brooding music]
308
00:16:46,339 --> 00:16:49,176
I'll let you know when
I pawn my Girl Scout badges.
309
00:16:50,810 --> 00:16:53,380
You do realize I'm
a little too old for you, right?
310
00:16:55,348 --> 00:16:57,550
I think you flatter
yourself, Richard.
311
00:16:58,718 --> 00:17:00,320
You're way too old for me.
312
00:17:01,221 --> 00:17:04,491
[slow sultry music]
313
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,851
[slow sultry music continues]
314
00:17:44,030 --> 00:17:46,133
[car horn honking]
315
00:17:46,166 --> 00:17:49,969
I was running down on Wayne
when I found a dog.
316
00:17:50,002 --> 00:17:51,671
[Richard] More
of an uptick to ya.
317
00:17:51,704 --> 00:17:55,175
I was running down on
Wayne when I found a dog.
318
00:17:55,208 --> 00:17:58,545
- That's perfect.
- [sighs] I don't know.
319
00:17:58,578 --> 00:18:01,314
I think she's gonna
see me and think I stole him.
320
00:18:01,348 --> 00:18:03,015
She's not like that.
321
00:18:03,049 --> 00:18:04,484
[Holly scoffs]
322
00:18:05,185 --> 00:18:08,588
Trust me, you're
the one that should do this.
323
00:18:10,523 --> 00:18:13,260
[car horn honking]
324
00:18:13,293 --> 00:18:15,094
[upbeat music]
325
00:18:15,128 --> 00:18:17,230
[Holly] The little dog
had a tag that said Gilbert,
326
00:18:17,264 --> 00:18:19,399
with an address
and phone number,
327
00:18:19,432 --> 00:18:22,669
but nowhere did it say
he belonged to Mariah McKay.
328
00:18:22,702 --> 00:18:25,538
Richard's story stunk.
But so what?
329
00:18:25,572 --> 00:18:27,674
He fucked like an angel.
330
00:18:27,707 --> 00:18:30,042
And I could use the money.
331
00:18:30,076 --> 00:18:35,114
- [upbeat music]
- [birds chirping]
332
00:18:37,150 --> 00:18:40,420
[slow upbeat music]
333
00:18:43,223 --> 00:18:44,824
[knuckles rapping]
334
00:18:46,326 --> 00:18:48,060
What?
335
00:18:48,094 --> 00:18:51,498
Yes, I was, um, running
down on Wayne and I found a dog.
336
00:18:52,565 --> 00:18:53,766
Hold on.
337
00:18:54,734 --> 00:18:57,069
- [door clicks]
- [Mariah groans]
338
00:18:57,103 --> 00:19:01,408
Oh! Why, mister,
where have you been?
339
00:19:01,441 --> 00:19:05,678
You had me worried sick.
Oh, you rascal.
340
00:19:05,712 --> 00:19:07,880
[Holly] I'd assumed
it was the maid at the door.
341
00:19:07,914 --> 00:19:12,452
Maybe an assistant.
It was Mariah McKay herself.
342
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,922
What the hell was she doing
answering her own door?
343
00:19:16,856 --> 00:19:18,425
He got out of
the backyard somehow.
344
00:19:18,458 --> 00:19:20,927
I haven't been able
to find the hole yet.
345
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:21,894
Thank you so much.
346
00:19:21,928 --> 00:19:23,496
No problem, really.
347
00:19:23,530 --> 00:19:25,432
I hope you don't
mind me saying this,
348
00:19:25,465 --> 00:19:28,501
but um, I've
seen all your movies.
349
00:19:28,535 --> 00:19:31,604
I mean, Riverside 88,
Circus Dreams, Morning Glory.
350
00:19:31,638 --> 00:19:34,841
I mean, you are
one of my heroes.
351
00:19:34,874 --> 00:19:37,610
Acting, uh. I prefer animals.
352
00:19:37,644 --> 00:19:39,779
They never act,
they very authentic.
353
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,282
What's your name, baby?
354
00:19:42,315 --> 00:19:43,683
Holly.
355
00:19:43,716 --> 00:19:47,119
Hmm, Holly? Very Christmasy.
356
00:19:47,153 --> 00:19:50,257
I just, uh, made some coffee.
You want some?
357
00:19:50,290 --> 00:19:51,924
Sure. That'd be great.
358
00:19:51,958 --> 00:19:53,025
Okay.
359
00:19:53,059 --> 00:19:55,628
[gentle bright music]
360
00:19:55,662 --> 00:19:58,431
[Holly] Midwestern rule
number one, accept any food
361
00:19:58,465 --> 00:20:00,367
or drink offered graciously.
362
00:20:01,334 --> 00:20:03,135
She'd made a ton
of money in the 80s,
363
00:20:03,169 --> 00:20:05,538
but it looked like
she hadn't held onto it.
364
00:20:06,673 --> 00:20:10,009
She could probably cough
up a hundred, but thousands?
365
00:20:11,644 --> 00:20:14,614
Of all the dogs to steal,
why had Richard picked Mariah's?
366
00:20:14,647 --> 00:20:18,718
Poor kiddo.
You must be starving.
367
00:20:20,753 --> 00:20:22,555
Have you been here a long time?
368
00:20:22,589 --> 00:20:25,091
Oh, 20 years or more.
369
00:20:25,825 --> 00:20:29,696
Ah, I always give
him a little yogurt,
370
00:20:29,729 --> 00:20:31,298
you know, for probiotics.
371
00:20:32,098 --> 00:20:34,867
You gotta pay attention
to your gut health.
372
00:20:34,901 --> 00:20:36,403
[dog barks]
373
00:20:36,436 --> 00:20:39,339
Here you go, baby. There you go.
374
00:20:40,607 --> 00:20:43,743
[sighs] So how long
have you been in town?
375
00:20:43,776 --> 00:20:45,978
Um, about a year.
376
00:20:46,012 --> 00:20:47,179
It's harder
than I thought though,
377
00:20:47,213 --> 00:20:48,715
I just lost a roommate.
378
00:20:48,748 --> 00:20:51,451
Nah, chapter and verse.
379
00:20:52,719 --> 00:20:54,554
Been there and done that.
380
00:20:55,422 --> 00:20:57,256
I tell ya, uh...
381
00:20:58,291 --> 00:20:59,426
Here.
382
00:21:00,860 --> 00:21:03,262
You might not
believe it, you know,
383
00:21:03,296 --> 00:21:06,933
but these,
these are the good times.
384
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:09,702
[Mariah sighs]
385
00:21:10,470 --> 00:21:11,904
Have you got an agent?
386
00:21:11,938 --> 00:21:15,041
Ah, yes, but
not a very good one.
387
00:21:15,074 --> 00:21:18,077
Ah, well hang in there.
388
00:21:19,312 --> 00:21:22,782
A lot of people
give up and go home.
389
00:21:23,716 --> 00:21:26,619
So you just have
to outlast that mob.
390
00:21:26,653 --> 00:21:28,187
[Holly] Good advice,
but what I wanted
391
00:21:28,220 --> 00:21:30,557
was a thousand bucks
for returning her dog.
392
00:21:32,091 --> 00:21:33,860
Yeah, I thought I'd
be further along by now,
393
00:21:33,893 --> 00:21:37,296
but um, I'm still
waiting tables down at Orzo.
394
00:21:37,330 --> 00:21:40,867
Orzo? Nah,
that's not a bad place.
395
00:21:40,900 --> 00:21:43,135
I like their ossobuco.
396
00:21:43,169 --> 00:21:45,572
Yeah, we had it last night.
397
00:21:45,605 --> 00:21:48,107
I don't mind working there,
it's just...
398
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:52,144
the tips aren't as good
as you'd think they'd be.
399
00:21:52,178 --> 00:21:53,880
Don't overplay the poverty.
400
00:21:53,913 --> 00:21:57,817
Remember, Midwestern
rule number two. No hyperbole.
401
00:21:58,418 --> 00:21:59,486
Oh, it's tough.
402
00:22:00,453 --> 00:22:03,790
You know,
I really, really very grateful
403
00:22:03,823 --> 00:22:05,324
that you brought Gilbert back.
404
00:22:05,358 --> 00:22:06,993
A lot of people
wouldn't have bothered.
405
00:22:07,026 --> 00:22:08,795
Mm. It's no bother, really.
406
00:22:10,329 --> 00:22:14,200
Ah, you know, I, um,
407
00:22:15,435 --> 00:22:16,903
I can't offer much,
408
00:22:16,936 --> 00:22:20,239
but uh, I was
thinking of hiring someone
409
00:22:20,272 --> 00:22:22,041
to help organize my stuff.
410
00:22:24,511 --> 00:22:26,846
And you seem
like a competent woman.
411
00:22:28,481 --> 00:22:30,517
Do you think
you'd wanna help me?
412
00:22:32,118 --> 00:22:34,521
Sure. That'd be great, um...
413
00:22:34,554 --> 00:22:36,789
Yeah. Just let me check
my work schedule.
414
00:22:36,823 --> 00:22:40,092
- Okay.
- [birds chirping]
415
00:22:40,126 --> 00:22:42,261
[traffic whooshing]
416
00:22:42,294 --> 00:22:44,831
[car horns honking]
417
00:22:45,364 --> 00:22:48,034
Hey! Did it work?
418
00:22:48,067 --> 00:22:52,371
No. And I was the friendliest
young thing you ever did see,
419
00:22:52,405 --> 00:22:54,541
but she doesn't
have any money, Richard.
420
00:22:54,574 --> 00:22:56,342
That place is
falling down around her.
421
00:22:56,375 --> 00:22:58,177
It's not that bad.
422
00:22:58,811 --> 00:23:02,214
- Did Mariah actually tell you
she didn't have any money? - She didn't have to.
423
00:23:02,248 --> 00:23:05,284
I mean, I was practically
choking on the mold.
424
00:23:05,317 --> 00:23:07,219
Oh, correction,
she does have some money.
425
00:23:07,253 --> 00:23:11,658
Enough to offer me a shitty job
sorting through our debris.
426
00:23:11,691 --> 00:23:13,125
Way to bury the lead.
427
00:23:13,159 --> 00:23:14,661
No, but seriously,
think about it.
428
00:23:14,694 --> 00:23:16,563
This is a fantastic opportunity.
429
00:23:16,596 --> 00:23:18,064
Don't fuck with me.
430
00:23:18,097 --> 00:23:20,633
No, seriously. Think about this.
431
00:23:20,667 --> 00:23:23,903
I did think about it.
I actually gave it the five seconds of thought it deserves
432
00:23:23,936 --> 00:23:25,171
and had exactly two thoughts.
433
00:23:25,204 --> 00:23:27,740
A, it'll be depressing as hell.
434
00:23:27,774 --> 00:23:30,677
And B, she'll probably
offer me like 10 bucks an hour.
435
00:23:30,710 --> 00:23:33,580
All right, Holly,
you are way too smart
436
00:23:33,613 --> 00:23:35,314
to not see
the side benefits here.
437
00:23:35,347 --> 00:23:37,917
Side benefits to being
an old white woman's maid?
438
00:23:37,950 --> 00:23:39,318
No. No, no.
439
00:23:40,352 --> 00:23:46,158
Do you have any idea how
much she brings in in residuals? I mean, her backend deals?
440
00:23:46,192 --> 00:23:49,428
She has to do a minimum
amount of business, right?
441
00:23:49,462 --> 00:23:52,064
You'll come into
contact with agents,
442
00:23:52,098 --> 00:23:55,234
casting directors,
maybe even directors.
443
00:23:55,267 --> 00:23:56,836
This is an in.
444
00:23:56,869 --> 00:23:59,271
People are gonna notice you.
445
00:23:59,305 --> 00:24:01,007
- [Holly chuckles]
- No, I'm serious.
446
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:02,709
They can't help it.
447
00:24:03,242 --> 00:24:05,177
You already got me into bed.
448
00:24:05,211 --> 00:24:07,246
All right,
imagine what might happen
449
00:24:07,279 --> 00:24:09,415
if you got Mariah McKay to come
450
00:24:09,448 --> 00:24:11,417
to your acting showcase.
451
00:24:11,984 --> 00:24:14,320
[gentle soft suspenseful music]
452
00:24:14,754 --> 00:24:16,556
[sighs] My acting
teacher doesn't think
453
00:24:16,589 --> 00:24:18,124
my scene is good enough yet.
454
00:24:18,591 --> 00:24:20,960
Well, it will be
after I coach you on it.
455
00:24:21,894 --> 00:24:23,262
Gratis, of course.
456
00:24:25,231 --> 00:24:27,600
Trust me, when
you charm your way
457
00:24:27,634 --> 00:24:30,537
into a movie star's house,
458
00:24:30,570 --> 00:24:31,904
that's magic.
459
00:24:32,739 --> 00:24:33,940
You're magic.
460
00:24:35,307 --> 00:24:38,611
[gentle lilting music]
461
00:24:41,581 --> 00:24:44,617
[diners chattering]
462
00:24:55,427 --> 00:24:56,863
So wait, wait.
463
00:24:57,797 --> 00:24:59,298
The short bald guy?
464
00:25:00,166 --> 00:25:01,901
And you went through with it?
465
00:25:01,934 --> 00:25:06,839
Yes. And it was kind of amazing.
466
00:25:07,874 --> 00:25:09,976
I mean, as long as
you kept your eyes closed.
467
00:25:10,009 --> 00:25:11,611
[both laugh]
468
00:25:11,644 --> 00:25:13,312
So what does he do?
469
00:25:13,345 --> 00:25:15,481
Um, I don't know.
I think he used to be an actor,
470
00:25:15,514 --> 00:25:17,917
but now he like
writes or coaches or...
471
00:25:17,950 --> 00:25:21,621
No, no. No,
what does he do in bed?
472
00:25:21,654 --> 00:25:25,291
- Right.
- [Danielle clears throat]
473
00:25:26,158 --> 00:25:28,761
It's like he barely ever came,
474
00:25:28,795 --> 00:25:32,098
but he got me off like 20 times.
475
00:25:32,131 --> 00:25:33,399
20?
476
00:25:34,333 --> 00:25:35,868
Yeah, well,
I don't know, I lost count.
477
00:25:35,902 --> 00:25:38,270
Uh, I'm sorry,
you were counting?
478
00:25:38,304 --> 00:25:40,973
Yeah, but at
a certain point I had to stop.
479
00:25:42,208 --> 00:25:45,377
Wow. Older guys, huh?
480
00:25:46,646 --> 00:25:48,715
- I'm kind of into it.
- It's fuckin' hot.
481
00:25:48,748 --> 00:25:51,250
Ladies! Time to lean,
time to clean.
482
00:25:53,586 --> 00:25:54,821
Bitch.
483
00:25:54,854 --> 00:25:57,456
[birds chirping]
[water pattering]
484
00:25:57,489 --> 00:25:59,659
[soft gentle music]
485
00:25:59,692 --> 00:26:03,830
[Holly] I re-watched
Mariah's best movies before I went over again.
486
00:26:03,863 --> 00:26:08,067
She'd been dazzling,
dangerous, and sexy.
487
00:26:08,100 --> 00:26:11,704
Now she lived in a messy house
and only talked to her dog.
488
00:26:11,738 --> 00:26:16,743
- [knuckles rapping]
- [birds chirping]
489
00:26:18,878 --> 00:26:23,415
Oh! Wasn't sure you'd show.
490
00:26:24,951 --> 00:26:28,087
Um, these were out front.
Do you want them there?
491
00:26:28,955 --> 00:26:32,892
Nah. You know, Jesus
didn't just die on the cross.
492
00:26:32,925 --> 00:26:34,894
He actually traveled.
493
00:26:34,927 --> 00:26:37,496
- What?
- [Mariah] Hmm. History Channel.
494
00:26:37,529 --> 00:26:39,899
You can learn all
sorts of things on there.
495
00:26:39,932 --> 00:26:42,669
[narrator on TV] Woods,
a weapon, both subtle and-
496
00:26:42,702 --> 00:26:44,403
[Holly] Where do
you want me to start?
497
00:26:44,436 --> 00:26:47,573
Ah, well, most
of this stuff goes
498
00:26:47,606 --> 00:26:49,408
in the closet in my bedroom.
499
00:26:49,441 --> 00:26:51,410
Up the stairs on the left.
500
00:26:51,443 --> 00:26:52,779
[narrator] A strict diet...
501
00:26:52,812 --> 00:26:53,913
Great.
502
00:26:55,081 --> 00:26:56,849
[narrator] Victorian.
503
00:26:56,883 --> 00:27:00,619
[gentle melancholic music]
504
00:27:02,488 --> 00:27:05,491
Mariah didn't go out,
the world came to her.
505
00:27:07,226 --> 00:27:10,262
Three years of brand-new clothes
still in their boxes.
506
00:27:11,764 --> 00:27:13,766
It took a week
to organize it all.
507
00:27:15,935 --> 00:27:17,937
And then there was the mail.
508
00:27:17,970 --> 00:27:20,406
Do we wanna keep magazines?
509
00:27:20,439 --> 00:27:22,474
Only if they're this year.
510
00:27:22,508 --> 00:27:25,644
You know, I... [scoffs]
I- I'm hardly in this book.
511
00:27:25,678 --> 00:27:26,746
[Holly] What?
512
00:27:28,247 --> 00:27:29,115
Look.
513
00:27:31,083 --> 00:27:32,284
That's an amazing photo.
514
00:27:33,419 --> 00:27:36,222
I have seen much better.
515
00:27:36,255 --> 00:27:38,657
Okay, here we go.
516
00:27:40,192 --> 00:27:43,462
Residual check? Yep.
517
00:27:43,930 --> 00:27:46,298
$2 and 47 cents.
518
00:27:46,332 --> 00:27:48,000
Oh wow!
519
00:27:48,034 --> 00:27:49,601
You see, that's what happens
520
00:27:49,635 --> 00:27:53,039
when you have a movie
play on TV for 30 years.
521
00:27:53,639 --> 00:27:55,074
[Holly] I'd done
enough sorting by now
522
00:27:55,107 --> 00:27:57,009
to know that most
of her residual checks
523
00:27:57,043 --> 00:27:58,577
were in the thousands.
524
00:27:58,610 --> 00:28:00,512
She'd had money, all right.
525
00:28:00,546 --> 00:28:03,682
And a house full of empty rooms
waiting to be used by someone.
526
00:28:04,550 --> 00:28:06,185
It's something, right?
527
00:28:06,218 --> 00:28:09,521
It's something
when Harry Dean Stanton
528
00:28:09,555 --> 00:28:11,490
sticks his finger up your ass,
529
00:28:11,523 --> 00:28:13,325
but it's not good, baby.
530
00:28:14,794 --> 00:28:16,662
No, don't put it there.
531
00:28:16,695 --> 00:28:18,664
There was,
it's been broken forever.
532
00:28:19,531 --> 00:28:24,303
Oh. Um, you just need
to re-drill the screws.
533
00:28:24,336 --> 00:28:25,337
It's an easy fix.
534
00:28:26,538 --> 00:28:29,141
Uh, my dad made sure
I knew my way around a toolbox.
535
00:28:29,175 --> 00:28:31,343
Ah, like your character
in Morning Glory does.
536
00:28:31,377 --> 00:28:33,512
[chuckles] Patsy.
537
00:28:33,545 --> 00:28:36,215
Yeah, I liked her.
She was, she was strong.
538
00:28:36,248 --> 00:28:39,518
Oh, she was more than
strong. She was kick-ass.
539
00:28:39,551 --> 00:28:41,120
- Yeah.
- Oh, and um,
540
00:28:41,153 --> 00:28:43,122
your cousin in the movie.
541
00:28:43,155 --> 00:28:44,723
- Jethro.
- Jethro!
542
00:28:44,757 --> 00:28:47,726
I had a roommate lined up
who looked just like him.
543
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,796
Really? That's horrible.
544
00:28:49,829 --> 00:28:52,832
He backed out. I've got
like a week to find someone.
545
00:28:53,665 --> 00:28:58,838
You know, um, I have a room.
546
00:28:58,871 --> 00:29:02,541
II never thought
about renting it to anyone,
547
00:29:02,574 --> 00:29:05,945
but you're a nice kid.
548
00:29:06,879 --> 00:29:08,380
Seriously? I... [scoffs]
549
00:29:08,414 --> 00:29:12,184
[chuckles] Don't get
excited until you see it.
550
00:29:14,686 --> 00:29:19,826
Did you know cyanide
occurs naturally in peach pits?
551
00:29:19,859 --> 00:29:23,930
- What?
- Mm, Science Channel, special on poisons.
552
00:29:27,934 --> 00:29:32,504
Uh, all right, clearly
it's, it's a lot of crap,
553
00:29:32,538 --> 00:29:36,042
but uh, once it's
cleared out, it's really,
554
00:29:36,075 --> 00:29:37,576
it's really, really cute.
555
00:29:38,744 --> 00:29:39,879
Mm-hmm.
556
00:29:40,579 --> 00:29:42,949
How much would you want for it?
557
00:29:42,982 --> 00:29:46,785
Well, I suppose
the first month or so,
558
00:29:46,819 --> 00:29:50,022
uh, we could consider it trade
when you do the work.
559
00:29:50,056 --> 00:29:52,859
So I'd be cleaning your house
560
00:29:52,892 --> 00:29:55,127
and living in
the maid's quarters?
561
00:29:55,161 --> 00:29:58,597
No! I mean,
don't put it like that.
562
00:29:58,630 --> 00:30:02,001
Yeah, it would be a regular
landlord/tenant situation.
563
00:30:03,002 --> 00:30:05,604
Let's say, thousand a month,
564
00:30:05,637 --> 00:30:08,975
after you finished
all the organizing.
565
00:30:09,942 --> 00:30:13,712
A thousand bucks a month
couldn't get me a closet in Koreatown.
566
00:30:13,745 --> 00:30:15,848
And this was
a mansion in the Hills.
567
00:30:16,615 --> 00:30:19,218
But it was Richard who really
saw the opportunities.
568
00:30:19,251 --> 00:30:22,221
But seriously, I mean,
it's the maid's quarters.
569
00:30:22,922 --> 00:30:27,293
It's a room
in an oversized house owned by a movie star.
570
00:30:27,326 --> 00:30:30,496
Yeah, if you saw her now,
you would not be saying that.
571
00:30:31,363 --> 00:30:32,764
You know what your problem is?
572
00:30:32,798 --> 00:30:35,667
- You're too Midwest.
- What?
573
00:30:35,701 --> 00:30:38,070
Too scared of getting
outta your comfort zone.
574
00:30:38,104 --> 00:30:41,974
An actor has to have
new experiences to draw from.
575
00:30:42,008 --> 00:30:44,643
Let me ask, that's
one of the three musts.
576
00:30:44,676 --> 00:30:46,645
Yes, it is. The three musts.
577
00:30:47,446 --> 00:30:49,015
- Must survive.
- Mm-hmm.
578
00:30:49,048 --> 00:30:50,516
Must be great
at the craft of acting.
579
00:30:50,549 --> 00:30:52,051
- Yes.
- Must network.
580
00:30:53,219 --> 00:30:54,786
Ah, must survive.
581
00:30:55,687 --> 00:30:57,589
That's the number one must.
582
00:30:57,623 --> 00:31:00,392
That means you gotta
have food, roof over your head,
583
00:31:00,792 --> 00:31:03,062
um, gas,
that shit takes money, right?
584
00:31:03,862 --> 00:31:05,831
I mean, if you're living there,
585
00:31:05,864 --> 00:31:07,366
you might be able to find things
586
00:31:07,399 --> 00:31:09,868
that she wouldn't
notice if they went missing.
587
00:31:09,902 --> 00:31:11,003
You're bad.
588
00:31:12,038 --> 00:31:13,405
That's why you like me.
589
00:31:15,874 --> 00:31:20,279
[gentle melancholic music]
590
00:31:20,312 --> 00:31:23,082
[locks clicking]
591
00:31:25,684 --> 00:31:27,987
[Holly] It took two days to
clean out the maid's quarters,
592
00:31:28,020 --> 00:31:30,189
but only 20 minutes
to pack up my apartment.
593
00:31:31,157 --> 00:31:33,892
I sold all my furniture
on Craigslist.
594
00:31:33,926 --> 00:31:36,528
All that was left
were my clothes, my laptop,
595
00:31:36,562 --> 00:31:39,631
and, of course, my gun.
596
00:31:39,665 --> 00:31:42,101
[door thuds]
597
00:31:43,369 --> 00:31:44,236
Okay.
598
00:31:45,271 --> 00:31:48,640
Mm, okay,
another box of scripts.
599
00:31:48,674 --> 00:31:51,877
Let me see. Oh, oh God!
600
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:54,846
My first film, Camp Massacre.
601
00:31:55,514 --> 00:31:56,848
I think I do the lines.
602
00:31:57,283 --> 00:32:04,223
"Brad, is that you?
Oh, stop fooling around." Eh?
603
00:32:08,094 --> 00:32:10,429
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
604
00:32:12,798 --> 00:32:14,433
Oh wow.
605
00:32:15,034 --> 00:32:17,703
Wait, I literally
just saw the magazine cover
606
00:32:17,736 --> 00:32:19,905
of you wearing that. [sighs]
607
00:32:19,938 --> 00:32:23,976
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I was
doing publicity for 1982.
608
00:32:24,710 --> 00:32:27,479
A lousy romantic comedy
I did with Kurt Russell.
609
00:32:28,414 --> 00:32:32,118
And for that
I passed up Blade Runner.
610
00:32:32,151 --> 00:32:33,519
Sean Young's part?
611
00:32:33,552 --> 00:32:35,454
Well, it wasn't Harrison Ford's.
612
00:32:36,722 --> 00:32:38,690
Well, I'm sure
you had a good reason.
613
00:32:38,724 --> 00:32:40,692
[Mariah] Yeah,
a bigger paycheck.
614
00:32:40,726 --> 00:32:42,761
Seemed like
a good reason at the time.
615
00:32:43,929 --> 00:32:45,797
[Holly] I'd assumed
it was costume jewelry.
616
00:32:45,831 --> 00:32:49,268
The kind of stuff you'd
find in a cracker jack box.
617
00:32:49,301 --> 00:32:51,970
It's not like we had a Tiffany's
in Hastings, Nebraska.
618
00:32:53,639 --> 00:32:56,475
[gentle soft suspenseful music]
619
00:32:57,343 --> 00:32:59,645
I felt like, nah,
620
00:32:59,678 --> 00:33:04,716
I felt invincible in
this shoot. [clicks tongue]
621
00:33:04,750 --> 00:33:06,085
Ah, well.
622
00:33:06,118 --> 00:33:08,987
[gentle music]
623
00:33:09,021 --> 00:33:10,622
Keep that.
624
00:33:10,656 --> 00:33:13,459
[drill whirring]
625
00:33:17,763 --> 00:33:21,800
[gentle soft suspenseful music]
626
00:33:34,146 --> 00:33:36,048
[Holly] Mariah!
627
00:33:37,649 --> 00:33:39,118
Well, what is it, baby?
628
00:33:39,151 --> 00:33:42,188
Um, we need traps
because you have rats.
629
00:33:42,221 --> 00:33:44,690
Oh, no. Oh, I've got traps.
630
00:33:44,723 --> 00:33:46,325
You can put 'em out tonight.
631
00:33:46,858 --> 00:33:48,294
Here, I keep 'em under here.
632
00:33:49,661 --> 00:33:52,698
They're the, uh,
anti-cruelty kind.
633
00:33:52,731 --> 00:33:54,800
You see the,
the rat goes in after the food
634
00:33:54,833 --> 00:33:57,169
and the door closes behind it,
635
00:33:57,203 --> 00:34:00,606
and then you take 'em
out back and, uh, let 'em go.
636
00:34:00,639 --> 00:34:02,641
I mean, if
they're not in the house,
637
00:34:02,674 --> 00:34:04,643
well, why hurt
the poor little fellas?
638
00:34:06,011 --> 00:34:07,179
[Holly scoffs]
639
00:34:07,213 --> 00:34:09,881
[trap rattles]
640
00:34:10,849 --> 00:34:15,354
- [slow soft suspenseful music]
- [fridge engine whirring]
641
00:34:15,387 --> 00:34:18,424
[Holly] Releasing the rats
would just give them a chance to come back.
642
00:34:19,758 --> 00:34:24,963
I was gonna handle
this the Nebraska way.
643
00:34:24,996 --> 00:34:26,898
[car horn honks]
644
00:34:26,932 --> 00:34:29,067
Do you wanna come over tonight?
645
00:34:29,101 --> 00:34:32,571
The mattress is so old
I had to put two pairs of sheets on it, but-
646
00:34:32,604 --> 00:34:34,373
Ah, ew, no.
647
00:34:34,406 --> 00:34:36,074
And besides,
I do not wanna disrupt
648
00:34:36,108 --> 00:34:38,210
your budding relationship
with the screen legend.
649
00:34:38,244 --> 00:34:41,680
- Oh yeah, right.
- I'm serious. You still don't get it, do you?
650
00:34:41,713 --> 00:34:44,383
I'm just the first person
who's been nice to her in years.
651
00:34:44,416 --> 00:34:47,719
Well, exactly. Exploit that.
652
00:34:48,754 --> 00:34:52,224
Tell me more about what
you saw at the house, in the maid's quarters.
653
00:34:52,258 --> 00:34:54,893
She has these amazing dresses.
654
00:34:54,926 --> 00:34:56,595
Props, old scripts.
655
00:34:56,628 --> 00:34:58,997
I found a letter
from Stanley Kubrick.
656
00:34:59,030 --> 00:35:01,867
Get out. Anything more valuable?
657
00:35:02,534 --> 00:35:04,035
- Actually, yeah.
- Yeah?
658
00:35:04,069 --> 00:35:07,273
She has way more money
than we thought. I mean-
659
00:35:07,306 --> 00:35:09,408
- [Richard] Tell me.
- She wears these around the house.
660
00:35:09,441 --> 00:35:11,543
The jewelry, not the dress.
661
00:35:13,412 --> 00:35:16,782
- She wears emeralds?
- Yeah. Every single day.
662
00:35:16,815 --> 00:35:19,351
I mean, I thought
they were glass, you know, junk.
663
00:35:19,385 --> 00:35:21,553
- But they're not.
- Mm-mm.
664
00:35:21,987 --> 00:35:25,224
I bet you she's gotten
quite a bit over the years.
665
00:35:25,257 --> 00:35:28,560
[gentle suspenseful music]
666
00:35:28,594 --> 00:35:31,263
Do we really think
it's a good idea for me
667
00:35:31,297 --> 00:35:33,232
to steal from my rich landlady?
668
00:35:34,766 --> 00:35:37,469
Steal? Who said
anything about stealing?
669
00:35:38,504 --> 00:35:40,639
More like, you know, liberate.
670
00:35:43,442 --> 00:35:45,110
[insects chirping]
671
00:35:45,143 --> 00:35:48,480
[slow soft tense music]
672
00:36:00,792 --> 00:36:04,630
[Holly] I couldn't resist.
I had to try on Mariah's dress.
673
00:36:05,764 --> 00:36:07,433
[Mariah] How's it look?
674
00:36:07,466 --> 00:36:11,337
Well, I didn't think
it was gonna fit, but it does.
675
00:36:11,370 --> 00:36:12,971
Wow.
676
00:36:13,004 --> 00:36:16,107
I haven't been able
to say that in 15 years.
677
00:36:16,141 --> 00:36:19,778
Something's off though.
Uh, it looked better on you.
678
00:36:20,812 --> 00:36:23,715
Oh. Well, you've
got the legs for it.
679
00:36:24,149 --> 00:36:26,285
But my tits
were a little better.
680
00:36:27,286 --> 00:36:30,822
We can do something about that.
Oh, hang on.
681
00:36:32,190 --> 00:36:34,926
[Holly] I had
a jewelry box back in Nebraska.
682
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,464
One of those flimsy
things with a plastic ballerina.
683
00:36:38,497 --> 00:36:40,666
When Mariah took
the key from around her neck
684
00:36:40,699 --> 00:36:43,935
and opened hers, I gasped.
685
00:36:43,969 --> 00:36:45,937
Who knew how
much it was all worth?
686
00:36:46,638 --> 00:36:50,208
I'd never worn anything more
expensive than a $20 necklace.
687
00:36:51,577 --> 00:36:56,848
I got this in Cannes in '92.
688
00:36:58,650 --> 00:37:00,085
Wow.
689
00:37:00,118 --> 00:37:02,020
[slow soft tense music]
690
00:37:02,421 --> 00:37:04,723
- These are gorgeous.
- Uh-huh.
691
00:37:04,756 --> 00:37:06,024
Are they real diamonds?
692
00:37:06,057 --> 00:37:07,526
[Mariah] Of course.
693
00:37:07,559 --> 00:37:09,995
[Holly] The diamonds
hung heavy at my throat.
694
00:37:10,028 --> 00:37:13,699
Over a hundred thousand
dollars right over my pulse.
695
00:37:13,732 --> 00:37:15,334
They felt like
they belonged there.
696
00:37:15,367 --> 00:37:17,269
But not for you.
697
00:37:18,737 --> 00:37:22,574
You need darker lipstick
and earrings,
698
00:37:23,542 --> 00:37:25,311
but, honey,
you look like hot shit.
699
00:37:25,344 --> 00:37:26,978
- [Holly chuckles]
- Which is what we used to say
700
00:37:27,012 --> 00:37:28,880
in my day, hot shit.
701
00:37:29,748 --> 00:37:32,751
I love the dress,
but I don't know,
702
00:37:32,784 --> 00:37:36,588
I don't feel like
it enhances my vulnerability.
703
00:37:36,622 --> 00:37:40,759
That dress? No. Damn!
704
00:37:40,792 --> 00:37:44,229
No, that is
a steal-your-boyfriend, hot-wire-a-car,
705
00:37:44,262 --> 00:37:46,264
get-the-fuck-outta-town dress.
706
00:37:47,699 --> 00:37:50,702
You know, that looks
so good on you, you ought to keep it?
707
00:37:51,470 --> 00:37:52,838
What?
708
00:37:52,871 --> 00:37:54,840
You heard me.
709
00:37:54,873 --> 00:37:56,408
I'm never gonna wear it again.
710
00:37:56,442 --> 00:37:58,444
[Holly] And so the girl
from Hastings, Nebraska,
711
00:37:58,477 --> 00:38:00,746
got her first designer dress.
712
00:38:00,779 --> 00:38:02,748
You have to promise me
you'll wear it at the party.
713
00:38:02,781 --> 00:38:04,049
What party?
714
00:38:04,082 --> 00:38:06,051
The party
that we're gonna throw.
715
00:38:06,985 --> 00:38:09,721
You know, it's
time to celebrate.
716
00:38:09,755 --> 00:38:13,459
And guess who's gonna be there?
Everybody important.
717
00:38:14,893 --> 00:38:17,062
You could ask some of
your nice little friends too.
718
00:38:17,796 --> 00:38:21,800
[slow soft tense music]
719
00:38:21,833 --> 00:38:24,470
[Holly] I wondered if
she knew anyone under 60.
720
00:38:24,503 --> 00:38:26,938
Still, my friends
would leap at the chance
721
00:38:26,972 --> 00:38:29,040
to come and stare at Mariah.
722
00:38:29,074 --> 00:38:32,578
As for Richard, he'd
wanna check out her jewelry.
723
00:38:33,278 --> 00:38:35,246
Eh, parties aren't my thing.
724
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,916
All the incessant,
uh, small talk
725
00:38:37,949 --> 00:38:41,119
and exchange of inanities,
they just drive me nuts.
726
00:38:41,152 --> 00:38:42,588
You know her, don't you?
727
00:38:42,621 --> 00:38:44,456
- Mariah?
- Yes, Mariah.
728
00:38:44,490 --> 00:38:46,458
I mean, you won't
come to the party,
729
00:38:46,492 --> 00:38:47,993
you'll never
come over to my place,
730
00:38:48,026 --> 00:38:49,828
I always have to come to you.
731
00:38:49,861 --> 00:38:52,664
I mean, our, uh,
our paths may have crossed
732
00:38:52,698 --> 00:38:56,502
back in my acting days,
but she was always on a whole different level than I was.
733
00:38:56,535 --> 00:38:58,136
That's pretty big.
734
00:38:58,169 --> 00:39:00,305
The reason I don't
wanna go to the party
735
00:39:00,338 --> 00:39:01,840
is 'cause of the dog.
I've got asthma.
736
00:39:03,008 --> 00:39:06,011
That dog was in
your apartment for days.
737
00:39:06,044 --> 00:39:08,680
Well, yeah,
a couple days too many too.
738
00:39:08,714 --> 00:39:10,782
Anyways, you don't
want an old Lothario like me
739
00:39:10,816 --> 00:39:11,917
dragging you down.
740
00:39:12,718 --> 00:39:16,154
You know, all those, uh, agents
and directors and producers,
741
00:39:16,187 --> 00:39:17,856
they're gonna wanna
think they got a shot with you,
742
00:39:17,889 --> 00:39:21,026
so you have fun,
just don't fuck 'em.
743
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,095
So d'you find out if
she's got more jewelry?
744
00:39:24,129 --> 00:39:28,033
Oh, yes. She's showed
it to me, I mean, I saw it.
745
00:39:28,066 --> 00:39:30,836
Calling it a jewelry box
is an understatement.
746
00:39:30,869 --> 00:39:32,671
It, it's more like a chest.
747
00:39:32,704 --> 00:39:35,507
Get out. Is it, how
easy would it be to get to it?
748
00:39:35,541 --> 00:39:36,708
Impossible.
749
00:39:37,809 --> 00:39:39,878
Midwest, you're killing me.
750
00:39:41,012 --> 00:39:42,514
You're too safe.
751
00:39:42,548 --> 00:39:45,050
I mean, hey, that's
a really fine way to live
752
00:39:45,083 --> 00:39:48,720
if you're a waitress
or a, uh, let's see,
753
00:39:48,754 --> 00:39:52,223
a, um, movie star's,
um, assistant,
754
00:39:52,257 --> 00:39:56,628
but not an actress.
755
00:39:56,662 --> 00:39:59,164
[gentle suspenseful music]
756
00:39:59,197 --> 00:40:00,065
I'm not safe.
757
00:40:01,867 --> 00:40:04,436
You won't even, uh,
steal a pair of earrings.
758
00:40:06,171 --> 00:40:08,740
Says the guy who's too afraid
to come to a party.
759
00:40:10,341 --> 00:40:12,377
[gentle upbeat music]
760
00:40:12,410 --> 00:40:14,145
[Holly] With the house
looking better,
761
00:40:14,179 --> 00:40:16,882
Mariah was ready
to fling open the doors.
762
00:40:16,915 --> 00:40:18,917
To my surprise,
the party ended up being
763
00:40:18,950 --> 00:40:20,886
a who's who of older Hollywood.
764
00:40:21,587 --> 00:40:24,222
Actors, directors, producers,
765
00:40:24,255 --> 00:40:26,725
they all showed up
to pay homage to Mariah.
766
00:40:27,626 --> 00:40:30,562
* If you only give love *
767
00:40:30,596 --> 00:40:34,232
* And never get love *
768
00:40:34,265 --> 00:40:37,736
* You'd better let
love depart *
769
00:40:37,769 --> 00:40:39,170
[gentle bright piano music]
770
00:40:39,204 --> 00:40:41,372
* I know it's so *
771
00:40:41,406 --> 00:40:44,109
* And yet I know *
772
00:40:44,142 --> 00:40:48,346
* I can't get
you out of my heart *
773
00:40:48,379 --> 00:40:49,915
- [guests chuckle]
- [bright piano music]
774
00:40:49,948 --> 00:40:53,418
* You *
775
00:40:53,451 --> 00:40:56,855
* Made me leave my happy home *
776
00:40:56,888 --> 00:40:58,690
* Well *
777
00:40:58,724 --> 00:41:03,795
* You took my love
and now you're gone *
778
00:41:04,262 --> 00:41:07,432
* Since I fell for you *
779
00:41:09,167 --> 00:41:10,502
Oh gosh!
780
00:41:11,469 --> 00:41:14,573
* Love *
781
00:41:14,606 --> 00:41:18,376
* Brings such misery and pain *
782
00:41:18,409 --> 00:41:20,145
Yes, sister.
783
00:41:20,178 --> 00:41:23,649
* I guess I'll
never be the same *
784
00:41:23,682 --> 00:41:25,917
[guests laughing and chattering]
785
00:41:25,951 --> 00:41:28,920
- Oh, there are the drinks.
Thank you. - Oh, no, I-
786
00:41:28,954 --> 00:41:30,656
I'm gonna need
another one of those, please.
787
00:41:30,689 --> 00:41:33,659
* Most every night *
788
00:41:35,861 --> 00:41:38,329
[man] Come on, come on,
don't be so stingy.
789
00:41:38,363 --> 00:41:40,165
* For you *
790
00:41:40,866 --> 00:41:42,968
[man] Make it whole.
[chuckles] Thanks.
791
00:41:43,001 --> 00:41:45,904
[Holly]
The guests were one thing, but give Mariah an audience
792
00:41:45,937 --> 00:41:48,406
and the magic and
the attitude came roaring back.
793
00:41:48,439 --> 00:41:51,577
And after the premiere, when
she walked into the theater,
794
00:41:51,610 --> 00:41:55,180
well, let's just say
all the straight males
795
00:41:55,213 --> 00:41:59,117
wanted to adjust their trousers,
if you know what I mean.
796
00:41:59,150 --> 00:42:01,587
You were,
you were sex on a stick.
797
00:42:01,620 --> 00:42:04,455
- Oh, Andrew!
- It's true. You, you were...
798
00:42:04,489 --> 00:42:06,825
You were a thinking male's
sex-on-a-stick.
799
00:42:06,858 --> 00:42:08,293
[Mariah] Oh! Well.
800
00:42:08,326 --> 00:42:10,195
And then you,
you blew us all away
801
00:42:10,228 --> 00:42:12,664
when you transformed
yourself in Morning Glory.
802
00:42:12,698 --> 00:42:14,866
- Oh, I love Patsy.
- I mean, who doesn't?
803
00:42:14,900 --> 00:42:18,036
- Holly, Holly! Come!
- [Holly] Yes. Mariah?
804
00:42:18,069 --> 00:42:19,971
[Mariah] Why isn't
the Pinot Grigio open?
805
00:42:20,005 --> 00:42:22,874
- Andrew needs a glass.
- Hi. Yes, sure.
806
00:42:22,908 --> 00:42:25,110
Hi, I'm Holly.
I'm so happy you could make it.
807
00:42:25,143 --> 00:42:27,478
Um, yes, the wine, bun.
808
00:42:27,512 --> 00:42:29,014
Sure.
809
00:42:29,047 --> 00:42:31,549
Goddammit, this is
supposed to be our party.
810
00:42:31,583 --> 00:42:33,685
Ugh, I'm a host, not her maid.
811
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,154
Come on, she's a famous
rich white lady.
812
00:42:36,187 --> 00:42:38,523
Well, she's
usually not this bad.
813
00:42:38,556 --> 00:42:41,026
Is she really any worse
than half the people that come into Orzo?
814
00:42:41,059 --> 00:42:42,794
No, but I get paid
to be ignored there.
815
00:42:42,828 --> 00:42:44,730
- Hey, beautiful.
- Hi, Clay.
816
00:42:44,763 --> 00:42:46,297
- How are you?
- Great.
817
00:42:46,331 --> 00:42:47,866
- Good to see you.
- This is so much fun.
818
00:42:47,899 --> 00:42:50,235
Hey, is that that guy
from that movie?
819
00:42:50,268 --> 00:42:52,470
Oh yeah, he's
actually really cool, I can introduce you if you want.
820
00:42:52,503 --> 00:42:55,340
Oh no, that is so fine.
I will just keep pouring.
821
00:42:55,373 --> 00:42:56,608
Thanks. Thank you.
822
00:42:57,508 --> 00:43:00,679
[gentle upbeat music]
823
00:43:00,712 --> 00:43:03,849
[machinery whirring]
824
00:43:09,020 --> 00:43:12,290
[gentle lilting music]
825
00:43:14,292 --> 00:43:17,729
I made a mental note to tell
Mariah to call Merry Maids.
826
00:43:17,763 --> 00:43:19,564
Sorting through
her mail was one thing,
827
00:43:19,597 --> 00:43:21,432
but no way was
I cleaning up this shit.
828
00:43:21,466 --> 00:43:23,869
The house was a wreck.
829
00:43:23,902 --> 00:43:26,371
At least no one
had called the police.
830
00:43:26,404 --> 00:43:29,708
[gentle lilting music]
831
00:43:38,884 --> 00:43:42,353
- [Mariah laughing]
- [Clay chuckling]
832
00:43:42,387 --> 00:43:45,590
- [Clay] I had an amazing time.
- [Mariah] Oh, so did I, baby.
833
00:43:45,623 --> 00:43:48,059
[Holly] I'd call
Mariah a cougar, but with that age difference
834
00:43:48,093 --> 00:43:50,328
she was more like
a saber tooth tiger.
835
00:43:51,096 --> 00:43:53,932
But then again, look at
who I was hooking up with.
836
00:43:54,933 --> 00:43:56,768
Mm. [laughs]
837
00:43:56,802 --> 00:43:58,303
[clears throat] Coffee's ready.
838
00:43:58,336 --> 00:44:01,139
Hey! I'm good,
but I'll see you in class?
839
00:44:01,172 --> 00:44:03,141
- Yeah.
- I'll see you later.
840
00:44:03,174 --> 00:44:04,275
Okay.
841
00:44:04,943 --> 00:44:05,944
Bye.
842
00:44:06,945 --> 00:44:10,148
[sighs] Good morning, baby.
843
00:44:11,082 --> 00:44:12,417
[soft sultry music]
844
00:44:12,450 --> 00:44:14,585
[Holly] I wanted
to stay mad at her,
845
00:44:14,619 --> 00:44:16,387
but how could I?
846
00:44:16,421 --> 00:44:19,590
She'd seduced my scene partner
and trashed the house.
847
00:44:19,624 --> 00:44:22,127
She was a teenager
with an AARP card.
848
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:23,995
I take it you had a good night?
849
00:44:24,029 --> 00:44:25,764
I had a great night.
850
00:44:25,797 --> 00:44:28,133
That little pal of yours, Clay?
851
00:44:28,166 --> 00:44:30,969
He is a cutie pie.
852
00:44:31,002 --> 00:44:33,238
He made me feel
like a new woman,
853
00:44:33,271 --> 00:44:34,940
even if he didn't
know what he was doing.
854
00:44:34,973 --> 00:44:36,407
Did he now?
855
00:44:36,441 --> 00:44:39,978
Yeah, I tell you,
that boy has stamina.
856
00:44:40,011 --> 00:44:41,813
Hm! That he does.
857
00:44:41,847 --> 00:44:46,184
Ha! Oh, holy fuck,
is he your boyfriend?
858
00:44:46,217 --> 00:44:47,919
Clay? No.
859
00:44:47,953 --> 00:44:50,255
- [Mariah] But
you've slept with him? - Once.
860
00:44:50,288 --> 00:44:53,759
Hmm. Well, okay,
there's no problem.
861
00:44:54,325 --> 00:44:56,294
I like you a lot
more than I like him.
862
00:44:56,327 --> 00:44:59,364
He does have
that sort of, I don't know,
863
00:44:59,397 --> 00:45:00,999
speedy rabbit thing going.
864
00:45:01,532 --> 00:45:03,434
There's a reason
I only slept with him once.
865
00:45:03,468 --> 00:45:05,336
Ah! Well, he's young.
866
00:45:05,370 --> 00:45:08,539
He can be trained. I'm patient.
867
00:45:09,307 --> 00:45:10,809
Guess I'm not. [scoffs]
868
00:45:10,842 --> 00:45:12,878
At your age,
you shouldn't have to be.
869
00:45:14,412 --> 00:45:15,981
Uh, about the party.
870
00:45:18,516 --> 00:45:22,888
I know I can be a bear at times.
No hard feelings?
871
00:45:22,921 --> 00:45:26,624
Mariah, you treated
me like a servant in front of my friends.
872
00:45:26,657 --> 00:45:29,828
And you don't think
I paid my dues to be where I am?
873
00:45:29,861 --> 00:45:32,864
How many directors have asked me
to get them a cup of coffee?
874
00:45:32,898 --> 00:45:35,133
- That's not the same thing.
- And I did it.
875
00:45:35,166 --> 00:45:38,736
I did it, because that's
what it takes to get success.
876
00:45:38,770 --> 00:45:42,173
Like a-a-a wolf
willing to gnaw it's paw off
877
00:45:42,207 --> 00:45:43,508
to get out of a trap.
878
00:45:43,541 --> 00:45:46,711
Only afterwards,
you have to look pretty.
879
00:45:46,744 --> 00:45:49,147
No place for
actresses with gnawed-off limbs?
880
00:45:49,180 --> 00:45:50,681
Exactly, darling.
881
00:45:52,183 --> 00:45:54,285
But last night
made me realize something.
882
00:45:56,421 --> 00:45:57,889
I wanna go back.
883
00:45:59,090 --> 00:46:01,426
There has never
been a better time
884
00:46:01,459 --> 00:46:04,095
for women over 45 in this town.
885
00:46:04,129 --> 00:46:06,431
And I wanna work.
886
00:46:06,464 --> 00:46:10,035
[Holly] I was tempted
to remind her that the last time she'd seen 45,
887
00:46:10,068 --> 00:46:13,204
I was in kindergarten,
but I'm not an idiot.
888
00:46:13,238 --> 00:46:14,840
You and me both.
889
00:46:14,873 --> 00:46:18,743
Hm. No reason
that we can't both be working.
890
00:46:19,911 --> 00:46:21,612
No reason at all.
891
00:46:22,580 --> 00:46:24,816
[Holly] We? I liked that.
892
00:46:26,651 --> 00:46:29,087
Her jewelry and
house were small time.
893
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:33,258
If I played my cards right,
I'd get a career.
894
00:46:33,291 --> 00:46:36,261
The long game was
the one worth playing.
895
00:46:36,294 --> 00:46:39,397
[insects chirping]
896
00:46:40,065 --> 00:46:41,699
So she wore the emeralds?
897
00:46:41,732 --> 00:46:43,969
[Holly] Yeah.
They were beautiful.
898
00:46:44,002 --> 00:46:45,536
I mean, she cleaned
them and everything.
899
00:46:45,570 --> 00:46:49,074
I... I felt like
a criminal scoping them out.
900
00:46:49,107 --> 00:46:50,108
- That's good.
- [Holly chuckles]
901
00:46:50,141 --> 00:46:51,242
New experience.
902
00:46:53,078 --> 00:46:56,647
So she didn't break out
the other stuff for a party.
903
00:46:57,782 --> 00:46:59,417
Huh! That's interesting.
904
00:46:59,450 --> 00:47:01,819
[soft upbeat music]
905
00:47:01,853 --> 00:47:04,489
You're very
focused on her jewelry.
906
00:47:04,522 --> 00:47:06,524
- Did you give her some of it?
- What?
907
00:47:06,557 --> 00:47:09,094
I mean, you obviously know her
more than just in passing.
908
00:47:09,127 --> 00:47:11,262
No, I didn't go
to the party because of the dog.
909
00:47:11,296 --> 00:47:13,131
Oh, Richard, come on.
910
00:47:15,100 --> 00:47:17,502
Really, you wanna
delve into ancient history?
911
00:47:19,137 --> 00:47:21,006
Yes, I mean, Julius Caesar,
912
00:47:21,039 --> 00:47:23,641
the Norman Conquest,
you and Mariah.
913
00:47:25,276 --> 00:47:27,979
We did a movie, like eons ago.
914
00:47:28,013 --> 00:47:30,315
Um, an era called the '80s.
915
00:47:30,348 --> 00:47:31,749
Oh yeah, I think
I've heard about it.
916
00:47:31,782 --> 00:47:34,452
Landline phones,
shoulder pads, cocaine.
917
00:47:34,485 --> 00:47:36,521
What happened between you two?
918
00:47:36,554 --> 00:47:39,390
There's just not much to,
to share, you know?
919
00:47:39,424 --> 00:47:41,626
[Holly] Why should I tell
you my most intimate stuff
920
00:47:41,659 --> 00:47:43,428
if you won't tell me yours?
921
00:47:43,461 --> 00:47:45,530
You know, you wanna be an actor,
922
00:47:45,563 --> 00:47:48,499
so why don't you break
down that big-ass wall of yours
923
00:47:48,533 --> 00:47:50,701
and tell me
the most painful thing that's ever happened to you?
924
00:47:50,735 --> 00:47:53,271
[Holly] Oh, and
that's called trauma porn.
925
00:47:53,304 --> 00:47:56,074
You know, it's not
that hard. You just say it.
926
00:47:59,210 --> 00:48:02,813
[Holly] Then you show me.
You and Mariah, go.
927
00:48:02,847 --> 00:48:05,050
[soft gentle upbeat music]
928
00:48:05,083 --> 00:48:07,018
[slow tense music]
929
00:48:07,052 --> 00:48:11,856
We had a short fling as
co-stars. Well...
930
00:48:12,390 --> 00:48:14,125
[Holly] What movie?
931
00:48:14,159 --> 00:48:16,962
I haven't found you
in any of her movies on IMDB.
932
00:48:16,995 --> 00:48:20,665
It was a, um, a so-called comedy
933
00:48:20,698 --> 00:48:22,367
called Two for the Show.
934
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,070
I died on
the cutting room floor, alas.
935
00:48:26,271 --> 00:48:28,239
And how did that make you feel?
936
00:48:31,342 --> 00:48:33,344
Okay, all right. Um...
937
00:48:35,513 --> 00:48:37,548
It made me feel foolish
938
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:43,688
and stupid.
939
00:48:45,056 --> 00:48:48,126
[tense somber music]
940
00:48:52,197 --> 00:48:54,432
So how was she?
941
00:48:55,766 --> 00:48:57,368
[Richard] Uh,
a gentleman never kisses-
942
00:48:57,402 --> 00:48:58,903
Oh, gentlemen kiss
and tell all the time.
943
00:48:58,936 --> 00:49:01,272
How was she?
Was she a good fuck?
944
00:49:01,306 --> 00:49:02,740
Was she better than me?
945
00:49:02,773 --> 00:49:04,209
- Don't do that.
- Do what?
946
00:49:04,242 --> 00:49:06,011
Make it all about sex.
947
00:49:06,044 --> 00:49:09,614
[slow tense music]
948
00:49:09,647 --> 00:49:14,619
Look, way back in the day,
949
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:20,825
she had this, this magic,
950
00:49:21,826 --> 00:49:23,061
this magnetism,
951
00:49:23,094 --> 00:49:28,099
this amazing, you just, ah,
952
00:49:28,133 --> 00:49:29,734
you couldn't look away.
953
00:49:32,003 --> 00:49:33,338
Just like you.
954
00:49:34,905 --> 00:49:37,508
[gentle music]
955
00:49:39,344 --> 00:49:43,081
- [water pattering]
- [birds chirping]
956
00:49:43,114 --> 00:49:45,683
[Clay] Uh,
so what did you do then?
957
00:49:46,617 --> 00:49:49,787
I ran. I ran screaming for help.
958
00:49:49,820 --> 00:49:51,089
And did help come?
959
00:49:51,956 --> 00:49:54,925
No, I was alone.
Alone with that awful thing that had been David.
960
00:49:54,959 --> 00:49:59,230
You are flashing your entire
ball sack to the entire world.
961
00:49:59,264 --> 00:50:00,731
It's my secret superpower.
962
00:50:00,765 --> 00:50:02,233
Oh, great to know.
963
00:50:02,267 --> 00:50:04,435
[Mariah] Hi, baby. You up?
964
00:50:04,469 --> 00:50:06,337
Right here!
965
00:50:06,371 --> 00:50:08,273
- Ah, good!
- Morning.
966
00:50:08,306 --> 00:50:10,007
Good morning.
967
00:50:10,041 --> 00:50:13,311
Now I want to go
see my team today.
968
00:50:13,344 --> 00:50:15,280
The Chandler Agency.
969
00:50:15,313 --> 00:50:17,182
So, uh, I need a ride.
970
00:50:17,215 --> 00:50:18,416
You don't drive?
971
00:50:18,449 --> 00:50:19,817
No, honey, are you kidding?
972
00:50:19,850 --> 00:50:21,652
I haven't been
behind the wheel of a car
973
00:50:21,686 --> 00:50:23,854
since Alabama Roadkill.
974
00:50:23,888 --> 00:50:25,790
And that was a picture car.
975
00:50:25,823 --> 00:50:27,658
[sighs] Okay,
well then, can Clay?
976
00:50:27,692 --> 00:50:30,128
No, I can't.
I got an audition at 1:00.
977
00:50:30,828 --> 00:50:35,933
Honey, I meant it when I said
I wanted us to go together.
978
00:50:35,966 --> 00:50:39,204
So come on, get ready.
979
00:50:40,871 --> 00:50:44,075
[slow staccato music]
980
00:50:45,143 --> 00:50:46,144
You ready?
981
00:50:47,545 --> 00:50:49,414
Ah, almost.
982
00:50:50,981 --> 00:50:54,219
Oh, put some lipstick on, honey.
Pop your face.
983
00:50:54,252 --> 00:50:57,588
[gentle upbeat music]
984
00:50:59,524 --> 00:51:03,361
So I met a man
at Orzo the other night
985
00:51:03,394 --> 00:51:05,696
that says he knows
you from back in the day.
986
00:51:05,730 --> 00:51:07,498
Oh my God, you didn't
give him my address, did you?
987
00:51:07,532 --> 00:51:09,234
No, of course not.
988
00:51:09,267 --> 00:51:11,035
He might have
been bullshitting me,
989
00:51:11,068 --> 00:51:15,005
but um, he says you two
had a fling back in the '80s.
990
00:51:15,039 --> 00:51:19,510
[chuckles] Honey, I'm gonna
need more than that to go on.
991
00:51:19,544 --> 00:51:23,348
I lost track of
my flings around '86.
992
00:51:24,615 --> 00:51:27,385
I mean, he has
these blazing blue eyes.
993
00:51:28,586 --> 00:51:30,188
[soft tense music]
994
00:51:30,221 --> 00:51:33,023
Short? Named Anthony, intense?
995
00:51:34,259 --> 00:51:35,726
He's intense, he is short too,
996
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,663
but no, his name
is Richard Metzger.
997
00:51:38,696 --> 00:51:41,266
Ah. Mm. [smacks lips]
998
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,170
I met a lot of
intense guys back in the day.
999
00:51:45,203 --> 00:51:48,339
I was doing a lot of coke.
1000
00:51:48,373 --> 00:51:51,342
So it's possible
he could be right.
1001
00:51:51,376 --> 00:51:53,378
Who are all these intense guys?
1002
00:51:53,411 --> 00:51:57,715
Oh, sweet baby Jesus,
I can't begin to remember.
1003
00:51:57,748 --> 00:52:02,420
The, the good thing about
being Mariah McKay in those days
1004
00:52:02,453 --> 00:52:05,190
was how easy it was
to get rid of 'em.
1005
00:52:05,990 --> 00:52:10,995
One guy I had the studio
fire from Circus Dreams
1006
00:52:11,796 --> 00:52:13,531
after he threatened to kill me.
1007
00:52:14,432 --> 00:52:17,968
None of this
restraining order shit for me, thank you very much.
1008
00:52:18,002 --> 00:52:22,207
Another one, let's see,
I had thrown out of the house, I had the locks changed.
1009
00:52:22,240 --> 00:52:25,776
And I don't want
to start on the arsonist.
1010
00:52:25,810 --> 00:52:26,911
The arsonist?
1011
00:52:26,944 --> 00:52:29,013
I said I don't wanna start.
1012
00:52:30,581 --> 00:52:35,620
No, took me a while,
but I learned my lesson.
1013
00:52:36,587 --> 00:52:39,390
I don't want a smart man.
1014
00:52:39,424 --> 00:52:43,060
I want a man who is nice,
1015
00:52:43,093 --> 00:52:46,063
and dumb, and hung.
1016
00:52:46,096 --> 00:52:47,198
Like Clay?
1017
00:52:48,833 --> 00:52:50,501
Exactly.
1018
00:52:50,535 --> 00:52:52,903
Um, are we good on time?
1019
00:52:52,937 --> 00:52:55,105
I don't want
you to miss your appointment.
1020
00:52:55,139 --> 00:52:59,244
Honey, I don't need
an appointment. [scoffs]
1021
00:52:59,277 --> 00:53:04,482
- [soft slow upbeat music]
- [car horns honking]
1022
00:53:06,351 --> 00:53:09,954
Yes, it's her.
It's been 20 minutes.
1023
00:53:11,222 --> 00:53:13,624
I'm so sorry, Mrs. McKay, um,
1024
00:53:13,658 --> 00:53:15,159
Aline is in
a meeting right now and she-
1025
00:53:15,192 --> 00:53:16,661
About what?
1026
00:53:16,694 --> 00:53:18,329
- I'm sorry?
- What is the meeting about,
1027
00:53:18,363 --> 00:53:21,299
that it can't be
interrupted by Mariah McKay?
1028
00:53:21,332 --> 00:53:23,167
Hurry. She's scary.
1029
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,370
That would be great. Thank you.
1030
00:53:27,972 --> 00:53:30,441
[phone ringing]
1031
00:53:30,475 --> 00:53:32,910
Ah! You know what I miss?
1032
00:53:33,544 --> 00:53:37,515
The days when you can smoke
a cigarette, no questions.
1033
00:53:37,548 --> 00:53:40,618
- Oh yeah,
equal-opportunity cancer. - [receptionist] That's her.
1034
00:53:40,651 --> 00:53:43,020
[sighs] Ms. McKay,
if you follow me,
1035
00:53:43,053 --> 00:53:44,722
I'll take you to Aline's office.
1036
00:53:44,755 --> 00:53:46,557
Can I get you anything to drink?
1037
00:53:46,591 --> 00:53:51,729
Coffee, black, sugar.
I asked for it 30 minutes ago.
1038
00:53:51,762 --> 00:53:54,499
[phone ringing]
1039
00:53:56,567 --> 00:53:59,604
[footsteps tapping]
1040
00:54:01,572 --> 00:54:03,641
So you're
Mariah McKay's assistant?
1041
00:54:03,674 --> 00:54:06,176
No, I just rent
a room in her house.
1042
00:54:06,210 --> 00:54:07,678
That must be nice.
1043
00:54:07,712 --> 00:54:10,214
It will be,
once we get rid of the rats.
1044
00:54:12,417 --> 00:54:15,320
You know, I think that this
is an exciting new chapter
1045
00:54:15,353 --> 00:54:16,654
for all of us.
1046
00:54:16,687 --> 00:54:18,022
I just can't believe it.
1047
00:54:18,055 --> 00:54:20,858
The, the best
new roles are on TV?
1048
00:54:20,891 --> 00:54:22,693
I'm sorry I have to call
you back in five minutes.
1049
00:54:22,727 --> 00:54:24,094
No, fine. I promise.
1050
00:54:24,128 --> 00:54:26,063
Okay, bye.
Yes, and you know what?
1051
00:54:26,096 --> 00:54:29,867
You are so right
for so many of them.
1052
00:54:29,900 --> 00:54:31,702
Let's set up meetings
with all the streamers.
1053
00:54:31,736 --> 00:54:32,903
A meeting?
1054
00:54:33,538 --> 00:54:36,173
To reintroduce
you to a new generation.
1055
00:54:36,206 --> 00:54:40,277
Well, I would think that
an Oscar, two Golden Globes,
1056
00:54:40,311 --> 00:54:44,048
and a combined
$532 million in box office,
1057
00:54:44,081 --> 00:54:45,950
might be introduction enough.
1058
00:54:45,983 --> 00:54:47,685
Of course.
1059
00:54:47,718 --> 00:54:50,888
How about
Circus Dreams: The Series?
1060
00:54:50,921 --> 00:54:53,958
Is that fabulous? You call Hulu.
We're gonna set that up.
1061
00:54:53,991 --> 00:54:56,260
Uh, my character dies
at the end of the film?
1062
00:54:56,293 --> 00:54:58,095
Well, the writers
will figure that out.
1063
00:54:58,128 --> 00:55:01,766
It'll be a prequel or a reboot.
Like a whole reimagining.
1064
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:05,570
Anyway, I'm sure
you wanna beat traffic.
1065
00:55:05,603 --> 00:55:08,673
I'd like to introduce
you to Holly Sloan.
1066
00:55:09,474 --> 00:55:12,042
You're, are her assistant?
Okay, if you need anything,
1067
00:55:12,076 --> 00:55:14,412
I want you to call
my assistant, Thomas. Anything you need.
1068
00:55:14,445 --> 00:55:16,080
Uh, no. No, no.
1069
00:55:16,113 --> 00:55:18,583
Holly is a very
talented actress.
1070
00:55:18,616 --> 00:55:20,551
Newly arrived in LA.
1071
00:55:20,585 --> 00:55:22,052
Oh, you're an actress.
1072
00:55:22,086 --> 00:55:24,088
If Mariah recommends you,
that means a lot.
1073
00:55:24,121 --> 00:55:26,424
It's so good to see you.
I'm so glad that you stopped by.
1074
00:55:26,457 --> 00:55:29,760
It was nice to meet you, Holly.
Okay, bye. Let's go.
1075
00:55:29,794 --> 00:55:30,961
Hi, sorry.
1076
00:55:32,430 --> 00:55:36,467
[gentle soft suspenseful music]
1077
00:55:37,935 --> 00:55:40,438
[gentle suspenseful music]
1078
00:55:40,471 --> 00:55:43,307
[Holly] I pulled
the Circus Dream files from Mariah's agent.
1079
00:55:44,208 --> 00:55:46,744
Why was I even thinking
about taking her jewelry?
1080
00:55:47,678 --> 00:55:51,115
If my career kicked into gear,
I could buy my own damn diamonds.
1081
00:55:53,451 --> 00:55:54,685
Look at that one.
1082
00:55:56,020 --> 00:55:58,856
I mean, I'm telling you,
Mariah is quite the collector.
1083
00:55:58,889 --> 00:56:01,492
I've counted seven
different diamond pieces alone.
1084
00:56:01,526 --> 00:56:03,127
You're researching Mariah?
1085
00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:05,530
Yeah, um, just
the stones around her neck.
1086
00:56:06,997 --> 00:56:08,699
Don't you think
her introducing me
1087
00:56:08,733 --> 00:56:11,001
to her agent
changes things a little bit?
1088
00:56:11,836 --> 00:56:13,370
Well, I mean, that's great,
1089
00:56:13,404 --> 00:56:15,339
but, I mean,
it's gonna take time, right?
1090
00:56:15,372 --> 00:56:18,375
So all I'm saying
is, must survive, right?
1091
00:56:20,811 --> 00:56:22,847
Huh, okay, um...
1092
00:56:24,381 --> 00:56:28,619
"The Three Musts"
is a pretty shit title.
1093
00:56:28,653 --> 00:56:30,955
[soft tense music]
1094
00:56:30,988 --> 00:56:34,391
- Okay. Work in progress.
- [phone buzzing]
1095
00:56:34,425 --> 00:56:36,494
- Hang on.
- Just let it go to voicemail.
1096
00:56:36,527 --> 00:56:38,963
No, it's early.
It could still be an audition.
1097
00:56:38,996 --> 00:56:40,364
- Mm-hmm.
- Hello?
1098
00:56:43,067 --> 00:56:45,503
Hi. Yes.
1099
00:56:46,737 --> 00:56:47,638
Mm-hmm.
1100
00:56:47,672 --> 00:56:49,840
[tense music]
1101
00:56:49,874 --> 00:56:53,410
[chuckles] Yes, sure.
Yes, absolutely, absolutely.
1102
00:56:55,513 --> 00:56:56,781
Okay, great.
1103
00:56:58,048 --> 00:56:59,049
Who was that?
1104
00:56:59,083 --> 00:57:02,086
That was Mariah's agency.
1105
00:57:02,119 --> 00:57:04,922
They wanna meet with me.
They might sign me.
1106
00:57:04,955 --> 00:57:07,257
[voice-over] It was the biggest
thing to happen for my career
1107
00:57:07,291 --> 00:57:09,594
since I'd gotten
off that Greyhound bus,
1108
00:57:09,627 --> 00:57:11,261
but Richard was jealous.
1109
00:57:11,295 --> 00:57:13,598
He couldn't see
past Mariah's jewels.
1110
00:57:14,699 --> 00:57:16,433
At least, that's what I thought.
1111
00:57:17,535 --> 00:57:19,504
God, everyone
wanted risotto tonight,
1112
00:57:19,537 --> 00:57:21,171
I smell like Parmesan cheese.
1113
00:57:21,205 --> 00:57:23,040
Wait, you're
making me lose count.
1114
00:57:23,073 --> 00:57:24,542
6, 19.
1115
00:57:24,575 --> 00:57:26,577
- Stop.
- [waitress chuckles]
1116
00:57:26,611 --> 00:57:28,713
Hey, you coming
to my DJ set this weekend?
1117
00:57:28,746 --> 00:57:30,180
Mm-hmm.
1118
00:57:30,214 --> 00:57:32,016
Are you too busy
having multiple orgasms
1119
00:57:32,049 --> 00:57:33,718
with your old man fuck buddy?
1120
00:57:33,751 --> 00:57:35,920
Goodnight, you guys, thank you.
Have a good night.
1121
00:57:39,156 --> 00:57:41,025
Okay. All right.
1122
00:57:41,058 --> 00:57:44,128
Oh shit. I missed
a call from the Chandler Agency.
1123
00:57:44,161 --> 00:57:45,930
Did I tell you about my meeting?
1124
00:57:45,963 --> 00:57:48,098
Only about 3,000 times.
1125
00:57:50,067 --> 00:57:52,102
[Danielle] Holly, come talk
to me before you leave, okay?
1126
00:57:52,136 --> 00:57:53,303
Okay.
1127
00:58:00,745 --> 00:58:02,079
They canceled the meeting.
1128
00:58:02,112 --> 00:58:03,748
Why?
1129
00:58:03,781 --> 00:58:05,215
I don't know. They didn't say.
1130
00:58:05,249 --> 00:58:08,318
Here you go, Logan. Fuck.
1131
00:58:11,021 --> 00:58:12,757
Fuck! What changed?
1132
00:58:17,461 --> 00:58:18,596
Hey, what's up?
1133
00:58:19,697 --> 00:58:21,498
There's no easy
way into this, so,
1134
00:58:21,532 --> 00:58:24,134
- we're letting you go.
- What?
1135
00:58:24,168 --> 00:58:26,070
[Danielle] This
was your last shift.
1136
00:58:26,103 --> 00:58:27,471
Wait, why?
1137
00:58:27,504 --> 00:58:29,106
A customer called
about your attitude.
1138
00:58:29,139 --> 00:58:30,274
That's all I'm gonna say.
1139
00:58:30,307 --> 00:58:31,809
Danielle, come on, you know me.
1140
00:58:31,842 --> 00:58:33,243
I'm a pro. I never lose my cool.
1141
00:58:33,277 --> 00:58:34,612
[Danielle] You're
losing it right now.
1142
00:58:34,645 --> 00:58:36,346
Because you're firing me.
1143
00:58:36,380 --> 00:58:40,517
Yes, I am.
We'll mail you your last check.
1144

Oh, hey. Are you, are you okay?
1166
01:01:46,536 --> 01:01:48,505
Never better.
1167
01:01:48,538 --> 01:01:50,674
Oh. Okay, guess what?
1168
01:01:51,408 --> 01:01:54,678
I just got an audition
for American Horror Story.
1169
01:01:54,711 --> 01:01:56,313
It's like...
1170
01:01:56,346 --> 01:01:57,848
- Congrats.
- Yeah.
1171
01:01:57,882 --> 01:01:59,516
Your agent's really
getting you out there.
1172
01:01:59,549 --> 01:02:03,353
Yeah. No, I got a new agent,
um, the Chandler Agency.
1173
01:02:05,689 --> 01:02:07,724
- Mariah's?
- Yeah, yeah.
1174
01:02:07,758 --> 01:02:10,160
She recommended me,
but I asked her not to,
1175
01:02:10,194 --> 01:02:13,563
'cause that's not why I'm
hanging out with her, you know?
1176
01:02:13,597 --> 01:02:16,133
[Holly] Oh dear God.
1177
01:02:16,166 --> 01:02:19,970
Dumb, sweet Clay
really liked Mariah,
1178
01:02:20,004 --> 01:02:23,573
and she had gotten
him an agent instead of me.
1179
01:02:23,607 --> 01:02:25,509
So much for my long game.
1180
01:02:26,710 --> 01:02:28,879
[Clay] Right.
Well, have a good night.
1181

Hey.

1188
01:02:52,202 --> 01:02:53,437
What's up with you?
1189
01:02:53,470 --> 01:02:55,272
[sighs] God, can you say
bad day?
1190
01:02:55,305 --> 01:02:56,773
I need a fucking drink.
1191
01:02:56,807 --> 01:02:59,743
Okay. Uh, Gin, whiskey?
1192
01:02:59,776 --> 01:03:02,779
Pick your poisons.
Swirl 'em together for all I care.
1193
01:03:02,813 --> 01:03:05,549
[Holly panting]
1194
01:03:07,317 --> 01:03:09,586
Why you breathing so hard?
1195
01:03:09,619 --> 01:03:11,822
I walked here, okay?
1196
01:03:12,222 --> 01:03:15,125
I walked here because
I can't afford an Uber.
1197
01:03:15,159 --> 01:03:17,594
And my car's radiator hose split
1198
01:03:17,627 --> 01:03:20,697
right where I parked it
in front of the restaurant that I used to work at.
1199
01:03:20,730 --> 01:03:23,700
Used to, because I got fired
today at the end of my shift,
1200
01:03:23,733 --> 01:03:25,870
after some asshole
called to complain about me,
1201
01:03:25,903 --> 01:03:28,906
and tomorrow, when I call
a tow truck to pick it up,
1202
01:03:28,939 --> 01:03:30,640
I'm gonna have
to look at that fucking place
1203
01:03:30,674 --> 01:03:33,110
and their $22 bowls of pasta.
1204
01:03:33,143 --> 01:03:34,244
Jeez.
1205
01:03:34,278 --> 01:03:37,147

[Holly sighs]
1207
01:03:43,753 --> 01:03:45,589
I can't afford
to get my car fixed.
1208
01:03:46,356 --> 01:03:48,893
Oh, look, I've got
a little bit of money, I--
1209
01:03:48,926 --> 01:03:50,094
Shut up.
1210
01:03:51,095 --> 01:03:54,264
[sighs] And fuck me now.
1211
01:03:54,865 --> 01:03:56,500
[somber music]
1212
01:03:56,533 --> 01:03:59,970
[insects chirping]
1213
01:04:00,504 --> 01:04:02,439
[Holly]
What was I gonna do for money?
1214
01:04:03,607 --> 01:04:05,642
And if an actress
isn't a waitress,
1215
01:04:05,675 --> 01:04:07,544
is she even an actress anymore?
1216
01:04:08,512 --> 01:04:09,479
[Richard breathing deeply]
1217
01:04:09,513 --> 01:04:11,081
Let's do it.
1218
01:04:11,115 --> 01:04:15,085
[suspenseful music]
1219
01:04:15,119 --> 01:04:16,720
[Richard] Let's do what?
1220
01:04:19,856 --> 01:04:21,959
Let's take Mariah's jewelry.
1221
01:04:24,061 --> 01:04:25,562
And not just a necklace.
1222
01:04:27,031 --> 01:04:29,533
Enough to really
make a difference.
1223
01:04:29,566 --> 01:04:32,636
[suspenseful music]
1224
01:04:33,070 --> 01:04:35,472
Well, hold on, why not just,
1225
01:04:37,007 --> 01:04:40,344
better take just
a little bit, you know,
1226
01:04:40,377 --> 01:04:42,479
and just milk it over time.
1227
01:04:42,512 --> 01:04:43,647
No.
1228
01:04:46,883 --> 01:04:49,319
You're the one
who said I have to do what it takes to survive.
1229
01:04:51,655 --> 01:04:53,557
Packing up my bags
and going back to Nebraska
1230
01:04:53,590 --> 01:04:54,992
is not an option.
1231
01:04:56,060 --> 01:04:57,761
Hey, hey, hey.
1232
01:04:58,562 --> 01:05:00,664
You never have to go back there.
1233
01:05:02,866 --> 01:05:04,901
You know what? Fuck Mariah.
1234
01:05:07,904 --> 01:05:09,039
Come on, say it.
1235
01:05:10,174 --> 01:05:11,508
Fuck her.
1236
01:05:11,541 --> 01:05:14,078
[somber suspenseful music]
1237
01:05:14,111 --> 01:05:15,980
Come on. Fuck her.
1238
01:05:16,013 --> 01:05:17,481
That's it.
1239
01:05:17,514 --> 01:05:20,384
You said she only
wears the emeralds, right?
1240
01:05:21,918 --> 01:05:24,254
If some of the other
pieces were to go missing,
1241
01:05:24,288 --> 01:05:27,191
do you think she would
even like, would she notice?
1242
01:05:27,224 --> 01:05:28,558
No.
1243
01:05:30,961 --> 01:05:33,063
She wouldn't even notice.
1244
01:05:33,097 --> 01:05:36,566
[soft suspenseful music]
1245
01:05:37,968 --> 01:05:39,703
She wears the key
around her neck.
1246
01:05:43,007 --> 01:05:46,576
[clicks tongue] If I can get it,
1247
01:05:46,610 --> 01:05:48,245
if I can take the jewelry
while she's sleeping,
1248
01:05:48,278 --> 01:05:49,946
she'll think Clay did it.
1249
01:05:51,315 --> 01:05:52,916
Who the fuck's Clay?
1250
01:05:52,949 --> 01:05:54,284
My scene partner.
1251
01:05:55,819 --> 01:05:58,888
The one who booked the SVU spot,
1252
01:06:00,724 --> 01:06:02,526
who signed with her agent,
1253
01:06:02,559 --> 01:06:05,162
'cause he did the smart
thing and started fucking her.
1254
01:06:06,496 --> 01:06:10,300
I come home tonight
and they're just going at it.
1255
01:06:10,334 --> 01:06:13,403
[suspenseful music]
1256
01:06:15,505 --> 01:06:19,043
Is he there,
is he there every night?
1257
01:06:19,076 --> 01:06:20,210
- Yeah.
- Yeah?
1258
01:06:20,244 --> 01:06:21,278
Since the party.
1259
01:06:21,311 --> 01:06:22,746
Do you know where he lives?
1260
01:06:23,647 --> 01:06:27,451
That, um, that old
building on the corner
1261
01:06:27,484 --> 01:06:31,421
of, uh, Franklin and Gower.
1262
01:06:36,093 --> 01:06:38,028
We, we could...
1263
01:06:39,029 --> 01:06:40,964
What do you think
if we were to, um...
1264
01:06:44,334 --> 01:06:48,505
What do you think if we were
to plant some jewelry there?
1265
01:06:49,939 --> 01:06:52,842
Do you think he'd
make a good fall guy?
1266
01:06:54,811 --> 01:06:57,281
Oh, you're bad.
1267
01:06:59,683 --> 01:07:02,786
Yeah, but
that's why you like me.
1268
01:07:02,819 --> 01:07:04,554
[suspenseful music]
1269
01:07:05,122 --> 01:07:08,425
Well, when I'm done with her,
we could throw her back into the gutter.
1270
01:07:08,458 --> 01:07:09,759
[Holly] Some
people might feel bad
1271
01:07:09,793 --> 01:07:12,296
for what we were
going to do to Clay.
1272
01:07:13,563 --> 01:07:15,299
- End scene.
- [Holly] Not me.
1273
01:07:15,332 --> 01:07:18,102
Everything had
come so easy for him.
1274
01:07:19,103 --> 01:07:22,339
Clay, fantastic work as always.
1275
01:07:22,372 --> 01:07:24,641
You have this, um,
1276
01:07:24,674 --> 01:07:29,146
[sighs] Pacino-esque quality.
This intensity that-
1277
01:07:29,179 --> 01:07:31,715
[Holly] Well, things were
gonna start coming easy for me.
1278
01:07:31,748 --> 01:07:34,884
So what if Mariah had
helped Clay and screwed me over?
1279
01:07:36,086 --> 01:07:37,854
I'd take her jewelry.
1280
01:07:37,887 --> 01:07:40,324
Must number one, must survive.
1281
01:07:40,357 --> 01:07:43,627
[dramatic music]
1282
01:07:43,660 --> 01:07:45,095
What the hell?
1283
01:07:48,398 --> 01:07:50,700
Your old headshot. Explain.
1284
01:07:50,734 --> 01:07:51,668
Where'd you find that?
1285
01:07:51,701 --> 01:07:53,603
You changed your name.
1286
01:07:54,671 --> 01:07:56,806
So? A ton of
actors change their names.
1287
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,943
You didn't tell me. Lying
by omission is still lying.
1288
01:08:01,445 --> 01:08:03,580
No, my name is Richard Metzger.
1289
01:08:03,613 --> 01:08:06,082
Uh, here's my
license and registration.
1290
01:08:06,116 --> 01:08:07,251
I just don't talk about it.
1291
01:08:07,284 --> 01:08:09,085
Well, you do now.
1292
01:08:09,119 --> 01:08:10,554
You weren't in
Two for the Show with her,
1293
01:08:10,587 --> 01:08:12,489
you were in Circus Dreams.
1294
01:08:12,522 --> 01:08:15,192
We jumped into bed 15 minutes
after our first rehearsal.
1295
01:08:15,225 --> 01:08:17,327
It was intense,
it was crazy. That's it.
1296
01:08:17,727 --> 01:08:19,095
Bullshit, that's not it.
1297
01:08:19,629 --> 01:08:22,532
She was fucking clingy,
helpless, a psycho bitch.
1298
01:08:22,566 --> 01:08:23,533
Yeah, I broke it off.
1299
01:08:23,967 --> 01:08:25,602
Okay, so Mariah
is a lot of things,
1300
01:08:25,635 --> 01:08:28,338
but honey, she's not
a fucking psycho bitch.
1301
01:08:28,372 --> 01:08:30,240
Stop lying to me, Richard.
1302
01:08:30,274 --> 01:08:31,875
What the fuck, Holly?
1303
01:08:31,908 --> 01:08:33,510
[Holly] Okay.
1304
01:08:33,543 --> 01:08:35,145
[Richard] What are you doing?
1305
01:08:38,915 --> 01:08:42,519
I will not take
a piece of that jewelry
1306
01:08:42,552 --> 01:08:45,622
until you tell me
what your deal is with her.
1307
01:08:48,158 --> 01:08:50,327
She, uh, she got me
kicked off the movie.
1308
01:08:51,261 --> 01:08:52,729
I wasn't in a single frame.
1309
01:08:53,463 --> 01:08:55,199
All right, it was
fucking humiliating.
1310
01:08:55,232 --> 01:08:57,867
Mariah, uh, she killed
my career, so I changed my name,
1311
01:08:57,901 --> 01:09:00,270
I went to New York, I did
plays for like three years,
1312
01:09:00,304 --> 01:09:01,905
came back here, nothing.
1313
01:09:01,938 --> 01:09:04,274
Couldn't get
one fucking meeting!
1314
01:09:04,308 --> 01:09:06,576
Who'd you tell about this?
Who'd you tell about my name?
1315
01:09:06,610 --> 01:09:07,611
No one.
1316
01:09:08,077 --> 01:09:08,945
Fuck.
1317
01:09:10,514 --> 01:09:14,184
Fuck, man. I might as well
just burn my book!
1318
01:09:15,419 --> 01:09:16,686
Yeah, I mean...
1319
01:09:17,854 --> 01:09:19,155
[muttering]
1320
01:09:19,856 --> 01:09:23,092
[gentle morose music]
1321
01:09:26,630 --> 01:09:28,164
Finally, the truth.
1322
01:09:28,698 --> 01:09:31,935
Richard was the guy Mariah
had thrown off Circus Dreams.
1323
01:09:31,968 --> 01:09:34,938
He'd threatened her
and she destroyed his career,
1324
01:09:35,872 --> 01:09:37,807
just like she was doing to me.
1325
01:09:39,142 --> 01:09:42,312
Now he wanted reimbursement
for a lost life.
1326
01:09:42,346 --> 01:09:44,648
No wonder he was
so obsessed with her.
1327
01:09:46,550 --> 01:09:49,619
[melancholic music]
1328
01:09:53,857 --> 01:09:55,225
Fuck that bitch.
1329
01:09:57,727 --> 01:09:59,062
Come on, say it.
1330
01:10:00,964 --> 01:10:02,866
Yeah, fuck her.
1331
01:10:03,833 --> 01:10:06,870
[melancholic music]
1332
01:10:07,871 --> 01:10:10,206
We'll steal the jewelry.
1333
01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:11,741
We'll make it right with her.
1334
01:10:14,544 --> 01:10:16,746
I just have to figure
out how to get the key.
1335
01:10:19,749 --> 01:10:21,385
Leave that to me.
1336
01:10:21,418 --> 01:10:24,554
[suspenseful music]
1337
01:10:26,856 --> 01:10:30,394
[door clicks and squeaks]
1338
01:10:31,961 --> 01:10:33,297
[door thuds]
1339
01:10:33,330 --> 01:10:34,364
Morning, sleepy head.
1340
01:10:35,064 --> 01:10:36,099
Good morning.
1341
01:10:39,168 --> 01:10:40,737
Mm, what is this?
1342
01:10:40,770 --> 01:10:43,873
Breakfast. All kinds of flavors.
1343
01:10:43,907 --> 01:10:45,842
Uh, you got your, um,
1344
01:10:47,777 --> 01:10:49,979
your... [clears throat]
fluffernutter.
1345
01:10:50,013 --> 01:10:52,516
- Mm-hmm.
- Your, um, lemon raspberry.
1346
01:10:52,549 --> 01:10:54,684
- Mm-hmm.
- And maple bacon.
1347
01:10:55,519 --> 01:10:57,153
- My favorite.
- [Holly chuckles]
1348
01:10:57,186 --> 01:10:59,989
I can't tell if this
is disgusting or delicious.
1349
01:11:00,023 --> 01:11:02,158
Well, which is a sign
of greatness right there.
1350
01:11:02,191 --> 01:11:03,393
Possibly.
1351
01:11:05,261 --> 01:11:08,332
Well, you know, this
feels like a significant moment.
1352
01:11:08,365 --> 01:11:09,866
[Richard] What?
You getting breakfast?
1353
01:11:09,899 --> 01:11:12,602
Me not sneaking out
in the cover of darkness.
1354
01:11:12,636 --> 01:11:14,404
You know,
I guess planning a felony
1355
01:11:14,438 --> 01:11:16,105
does that for a relationship.
1356
01:11:17,273 --> 01:11:19,275
Well, diamonds too,
marks education.
1357
01:11:19,309 --> 01:11:20,710
And Mariah has some great ones.
1358
01:11:20,744 --> 01:11:21,878
Oh, she does.
1359
01:11:24,113 --> 01:11:26,115
This is,
1360
01:11:28,251 --> 01:11:30,987
[grunts] this is
how we get the key.
1361
01:11:31,988 --> 01:11:34,090
- What is that?
- Crushed-up benzos.
1362
01:11:35,258 --> 01:11:36,926
Mix them with
her and Clay's drink,
1363
01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:40,997
and um, sleepy time.
1364
01:11:42,065 --> 01:11:44,734
Can you, um, can you do that?
1365
01:11:44,768 --> 01:11:46,269
Easy.
1366
01:11:46,302 --> 01:11:48,372
Mariah hates
getting anything for herself.
1367
01:11:48,405 --> 01:11:51,441
I mean, if she can wave a hand
in my direction to fetch it?
1368
01:11:52,942 --> 01:11:54,110
[Richard] Okay, good, uh, great.
1369
01:11:54,143 --> 01:11:55,412
When, when will you do it?
1370
01:11:55,445 --> 01:11:56,446
As soon as I can.
1371
01:11:57,747 --> 01:11:59,583
[Richard] We'll
celebrate afterwards.
1372
01:12:00,817 --> 01:12:02,486
What do you think? Pack a bag.
1373
01:12:02,519 --> 01:12:05,855
Bring it over when
you're done, go to Big Bear.
1374
01:12:06,923 --> 01:12:08,425
- Big Bear?
- Yeah.
1375
01:12:08,458 --> 01:12:12,962
Mm-mm, if I do this,
we're going to Hawaii.
1376
01:12:14,464 --> 01:12:15,765
[Richard] Nice.
1377
01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:19,769
[suspenseful music]
1378
01:12:25,542 --> 01:12:27,310
He broke up with me.
1379
01:12:27,343 --> 01:12:28,445
Clay?
1380
01:12:28,478 --> 01:12:30,514
Of course Clay.
1381
01:12:30,547 --> 01:12:32,281
We were supposed
to have lunch together
1382
01:12:32,315 --> 01:12:34,017
and then he didn't show.
1383
01:12:34,050 --> 01:12:37,521
When I called and left texts,
he never answered.
1384
01:12:40,323 --> 01:12:41,758
He's ghosting you.
1385
01:12:41,791 --> 01:12:44,127
- He's what?
- Ghosting you?
1386
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:47,363
You know, when someone
suddenly stops answering your text messages?
1387
01:12:48,197 --> 01:12:50,967
So he's dumping me, hm?
Because I'm old.
1388
01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:54,270
I'm old. I'm old.
1389
01:12:54,303 --> 01:12:56,640
You see, I got
offered this part.
1390
01:12:57,407 --> 01:13:00,944
Be the judge, 'cause I'm old.
1391
01:13:00,977 --> 01:13:03,012
Of course he dumped me.
1392
01:13:03,046 --> 01:13:05,248
We don't know
that Clay dumped you.
1393
01:13:06,583 --> 01:13:08,184
Then why hasn't he answered?
1394
01:13:08,217 --> 01:13:11,287
I don't know.
He's a 25-year-old actor.
1395
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:14,123
He... his phone is dead.
He booked a role.
1396
01:13:14,157 --> 01:13:15,959
He's playing hard to get.
Anything.
1397
01:13:15,992 --> 01:13:17,527
Well, if his phone's dead,
1398
01:13:17,561 --> 01:13:19,463
that means he, he can
get my other message.
1399
01:13:19,496 --> 01:13:21,030
- No, it's more texting.
- Well, but I--
1400
01:13:21,064 --> 01:13:22,331
No!
1401
01:13:23,399 --> 01:13:24,734
You want some tea?
1402
01:13:25,435 --> 01:13:28,472
Tea? Do I look like
a woman who wants tea?
1403
01:13:29,873 --> 01:13:33,643
No. You look like
a woman who wants more wine.
1404
01:13:33,677 --> 01:13:36,713
[suspenseful music]
1405
01:13:40,283 --> 01:13:43,019
[dramatic music]
1406
01:13:59,469 --> 01:14:01,605
[Mariah] Bring me
the shiraz, not the cab.
1407
01:14:02,371 --> 01:14:03,940
I'll be right there!
1408
01:14:05,241 --> 01:14:08,878
[dramatic music continues]
1409
01:14:21,825 --> 01:14:25,428
There's no arguing
with these results. Okay? It's like falling...
1410
01:14:25,461 --> 01:14:28,464
Motherfucking spooking me.
1411
01:14:28,498 --> 01:14:32,736
I'm Mariah fucking McKay!
1412
01:14:32,769 --> 01:14:35,572
Ghosting. He's ghosting you.
1413
01:14:35,605 --> 01:14:36,940
Whatever.
1414
01:14:38,307 --> 01:14:39,909
[Mariah sighs]
1415
01:14:41,010 --> 01:14:44,347
Look, I think, I, uh,
I think I'm gonna turn in.
1416
01:14:45,582 --> 01:14:47,817
Ah, you okay to,
to clean up, baby?
1417
01:14:48,618 --> 01:14:49,819
Not a problem.
1418
01:14:50,587 --> 01:14:53,089
[Mariah groaning and sighing]
1419
01:14:54,157 --> 01:14:57,160
[suspenseful music]
1420
01:15:02,866 --> 01:15:06,135
Where's the love, mister? Huh?
1421
01:15:06,603 --> 01:15:08,638
What, have you,
you've turned from me too?
1422
01:15:09,806 --> 01:15:12,909
Come on! Come on!
1423
01:15:12,942 --> 01:15:15,979
[suspenseful music]
1424
01:15:17,313 --> 01:15:20,817
[somber suspenseful music]
1425
01:15:27,023 --> 01:15:29,425
[suspenseful music]
1426
01:15:29,458 --> 01:15:31,527
- [jewelry thuds]
- [dramatic music]
1427
01:15:31,561 --> 01:15:32,528
[Richard] Get a load.
1428
01:15:32,562 --> 01:15:33,997
If we're lucky,
1429
01:15:34,030 --> 01:15:36,600
she won't notice
for a long, long time.
1430
01:15:36,633 --> 01:15:38,267
Maybe never.
1431
01:15:38,301 --> 01:15:42,138
And the sedatives,
they, um, she was out?
1432
01:15:43,006 --> 01:15:44,674
Out like a light. [scoffs]
1433
01:15:44,708 --> 01:15:46,610
She would've
slept through an earthquake.
1434
01:15:46,643 --> 01:15:48,344
Almost like she was dead.
1435
01:15:48,377 --> 01:15:49,512
[suspenseful music]
1436
01:15:49,545 --> 01:15:52,181
Okay, okay. All right.
1437
01:15:52,716 --> 01:15:55,318
Getting her key,
stealing her jewelry?
1438
01:15:55,351 --> 01:15:57,721
Oof, it was nothing.
1439
01:15:57,754 --> 01:16:01,024
[rousing dramatic music]
1440
01:16:21,544 --> 01:16:23,146
Check this one out.
1441
01:16:23,179 --> 01:16:26,750
She got this one in Cannes.
1442
01:16:28,584 --> 01:16:32,956
1992. It was
worth 180K back then?
1443
01:16:33,757 --> 01:16:36,192
I mean, it's gotta be
worth a whole bunch more.
1444
01:16:37,093 --> 01:16:39,028
Oh man. Absolutely.
1445
01:16:39,595 --> 01:16:42,398
[dramatic music]
1446
01:16:43,967 --> 01:16:46,235
[Richard gasping]
1447
01:16:46,269 --> 01:16:48,537
Whoo! I'm still jacked up.
1448
01:16:49,572 --> 01:16:52,709
Adrenaline. You want a drink?
1449
01:16:52,742 --> 01:16:55,244
I'll, um, I'll take
whatever you're having.
1450
01:16:55,278 --> 01:16:56,612
Whiskey.
1451
01:16:56,646 --> 01:16:59,215
[slow dramatic music]
1452
01:16:59,248 --> 01:17:01,017
[Richard] What about Clay?
1453
01:17:01,050 --> 01:17:02,952
Oh, Clay wasn't there.
1454
01:17:02,986 --> 01:17:04,087
[Richard] Lucky us.
1455
01:17:07,123 --> 01:17:09,292
He is, um, ghosting her.
1456
01:17:09,325 --> 01:17:10,694
[Richard] He's what?
1457
01:17:10,727 --> 01:17:13,196
Ghosting her.
God, you old types.
1458
01:17:13,229 --> 01:17:17,834
It's, um, it's when someone
doesn't respond to your texts.
1459
01:17:19,002 --> 01:17:23,239
To Mariah McKay,
goddess of the silver screen.
1460
01:17:24,307 --> 01:17:25,574
And her jewelry.
1461
01:17:25,608 --> 01:17:28,577
Yeah, thank God that the latter
1462
01:17:28,611 --> 01:17:30,113
kept its value and beauty
1463
01:17:30,146 --> 01:17:33,349
while the former
withered and aged.
1464
01:17:35,118 --> 01:17:36,385
Cheers.
1465
01:17:36,419 --> 01:17:40,023
[gentle melancholic music]
1466
01:17:41,324 --> 01:17:42,692
You're awful.
1467
01:17:44,327 --> 01:17:46,629
I don't even wanna
know what you say about me.
1468
01:17:47,596 --> 01:17:50,633
[gentle pensive music]
1469
01:17:54,670 --> 01:17:59,442
That I have never met
anyone like you, Midwest.
1470
01:18:01,878 --> 01:18:02,879
Ever.
1471
01:18:03,612 --> 01:18:04,714
[somber music]
1472
01:18:05,114 --> 01:18:07,550
[Holly] Maybe
it was the adrenaline.
1473
01:18:08,151 --> 01:18:10,619
Maybe it was the diamonds
on the bed next to me.
1474
01:18:12,621 --> 01:18:15,158
Goddammit, I still wanted him.
1475
01:18:17,861 --> 01:18:19,462
Even after what I knew.
1476
01:18:20,730 --> 01:18:22,999
Even after what I had done.
1477
01:18:23,032 --> 01:18:24,768
[Richard gasping]
1478
01:18:24,801 --> 01:18:25,668
Are you okay?
1479
01:18:26,502 --> 01:18:27,871
[grunts] Fuck!
1480
01:18:27,904 --> 01:18:29,605
[coughs, clears throat]
1481
01:18:29,638 --> 01:18:31,007
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
1482
01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:34,277
God. [coughing]
1483
01:18:34,310 --> 01:18:35,945
Are you okay?
1484
01:18:35,979 --> 01:18:39,282
Yeah. [coughs and clears throat]
This is weird.
1485
01:18:39,315 --> 01:18:40,549
This hasn't happened.
1486
01:18:40,583 --> 01:18:42,786
Did you,
did you pick up the dog?
1487
01:18:42,819 --> 01:18:47,623
[Richard inhales
sharply and coughs]
1488
01:18:47,656 --> 01:18:49,859
Oh geez. [wheezing]
1489
01:18:49,893 --> 01:18:52,528
Oh, Jesus, fuck. [clears throat]
1490
01:18:52,561 --> 01:18:55,064
[tense music]
1491
01:18:55,098 --> 01:18:58,501
[Richard grunting]
1492
01:18:58,534 --> 01:19:01,537
[coughs and groans]
Yeah, water! Water!
1493
01:19:01,938 --> 01:19:04,640
[Richard wheezing and choking]
1494
01:19:04,673 --> 01:19:07,877
[intense music]
1495
01:19:15,952 --> 01:19:17,854
[Richard spluttering]

[Richard wheezing and choking]
1497
01:19:19,923 --> 01:19:21,690
[Holly] Richard, breathe!
1498
01:19:21,724 --> 01:19:24,227
[groans] Hospital.
1499
01:19:24,260 --> 01:19:26,495
- [Richard grunting]
- [Holly gasps]
1500
01:19:26,529 --> 01:19:29,232
[intense tense music continues]
1501
01:19:29,265 --> 01:19:32,268
Hi. Yes.
Wait, wait, wait. It's gonna be okay.
1502
01:19:32,301 --> 01:19:35,538
Richard, hang on.
It's gonna be okay. Yes. Hi, yes.
1503
01:19:35,571 --> 01:19:37,440
No, no, no, don't put
me on hold, motherfucker!
1504
01:19:37,473 --> 01:19:39,909
I need an ambulance right now!
My boyfriend can't breathe.
1505
01:19:39,943 --> 01:19:43,012
4730 Fountain Drive, Unit B.
1506
01:19:43,046 --> 01:19:45,548
I can't, Midwest. [grunting]
1507
01:19:45,581 --> 01:19:47,583
Richard, they're coming.
1508
01:19:47,616 --> 01:19:49,853
[intensifying tense music]
1509
01:19:49,886 --> 01:19:51,354
And scene.
1510
01:19:51,387 --> 01:19:53,456
[Richard wheezing]
1511
01:19:54,457 --> 01:19:57,193
[gasps] I never called. [scoffs]
1512
01:19:58,061 --> 01:20:00,396
You're not having
an asthma attack, by the way.
1513
01:20:00,429 --> 01:20:02,798
That powder you gave me,
1514
01:20:02,832 --> 01:20:05,301
the cyanide? [scoffs]
1515
01:20:05,768 --> 01:20:07,570
It's paralyzing
your respiratory system.
1516
01:20:07,603 --> 01:20:09,205
You got about five minutes.
1517
01:20:09,238 --> 01:20:12,208
I put it in your drink,
in case you're wondering.
1518
01:20:12,241 --> 01:20:13,977
Cheers.
1519
01:20:14,010 --> 01:20:15,979
You know, I used
to think you were being ironic
1520
01:20:16,012 --> 01:20:18,081
when you called me Midwest
until I realized
1521
01:20:18,114 --> 01:20:20,616
you know fuck all
about the Midwest.
1522
01:20:20,649 --> 01:20:24,053
Nebraska isn't just
corn fields and apple pie.
1523
01:20:24,087 --> 01:20:26,822
It's also oxy and Dilaudid.
1524
01:20:27,456 --> 01:20:29,492
That powder didn't
look like any crushed-up pills
1525
01:20:29,525 --> 01:20:31,127
I'd ever seen
and when I smelled it.
1526
01:20:31,160 --> 01:20:32,896
[sniffs] Almonds?

[Holly gasps]
1529
01:20:37,466 --> 01:20:39,435
Dead giveaway for cyanide.
1530
01:20:41,170 --> 01:20:44,107
I mean, you were
right about one thing.
1531
01:20:45,374 --> 01:20:48,111
Nobody would've bought
your stupid fucking book
1532
01:20:48,144 --> 01:20:51,080
if they knew
the truth about you and Mariah.
1533
01:20:51,114 --> 01:20:55,952
That you're a fucking canceled,
washed-up has-been
1534
01:20:55,985 --> 01:20:59,788
who got dumped by a movie star.
1535
01:20:59,822 --> 01:21:01,524
[inhales sharply] Whoa!
1536
01:21:01,557 --> 01:21:06,462

[zipper rasping]
1538
01:21:09,798 --> 01:21:11,167
Oh.
1539
01:21:13,903 --> 01:21:16,339
Some romantic getaway.
1540
01:21:16,372 --> 01:21:18,975
What, were
you planning on poisoning me
1541
01:21:19,008 --> 01:21:22,011
and then making it look
like I killed Mariah and Clay,
1542
01:21:22,979 --> 01:21:25,114
'cause I was jealous of them?
1543
01:21:25,148 --> 01:21:27,383
Me? Jealous of them?
1544
01:21:28,217 --> 01:21:31,487
[clicks tongue] Oh, Richard!
1545
01:21:32,755 --> 01:21:34,790
I would've kept your secret.
1546
01:21:35,591 --> 01:21:39,662
[sighs] I'm so used
to being underestimated,
1547
01:21:39,695 --> 01:21:42,198
it fucking kills me.
1548
01:21:42,231 --> 01:21:44,667
- [suspenseful music]
- [clock ticking]
1549
01:21:44,700 --> 01:21:46,835
But I was stupid.
1550
01:21:46,869 --> 01:21:50,306
[tense music]
1551
01:21:50,339 --> 01:21:54,410
I believed you when you said
that I was special, that I would make it.
1552
01:21:55,211 --> 01:21:57,947
[tense music]
1553
01:22:00,249 --> 01:22:01,951
But you never even saw me.
1554
01:22:02,785 --> 01:22:04,787
You were just
thinking about her.
1555
01:22:07,823 --> 01:22:09,458
You crushed me, Richard.
1556
01:22:10,426 --> 01:22:13,362
You have this spark, an edge.
1557
01:22:14,130 --> 01:22:15,931
[Holly] You changed your name.
1558
01:22:15,965 --> 01:22:17,433
[Richard] Ton of
actors change their name.
1559
01:22:17,466 --> 01:22:20,436
I found this dog
and I need to return it.
1560
01:22:20,469 --> 01:22:21,870
[Danielle] There's
no easy way into this,
1561
01:22:21,904 --> 01:22:23,206
so we're letting you go.
1562
01:22:23,239 --> 01:22:25,574
I am, uh,
calling about a complaint
1563
01:22:25,608 --> 01:22:26,976
with one of your employees.
1564
01:22:27,610 --> 01:22:28,911
You're magic.
1565
01:22:29,645 --> 01:22:31,547
But I'm not such
a good neighbor, Holly,
1566
01:22:31,580 --> 01:22:33,282
I really do want the money.
1567
01:22:34,117 --> 01:22:35,251
What about Clay?
1568
01:22:36,085 --> 01:22:37,753
[Holly] Oh, he wasn't there.
1569
01:22:37,786 --> 01:22:38,887
[Richard] Lucky us.
1570
01:22:40,123 --> 01:22:42,358
- [gunfire bangs]
- [Holly] You know her don't you?
1571
01:22:42,391 --> 01:22:45,061
[Richard] Our paths
may have crossed back in my acting days.
1572
01:22:46,996 --> 01:22:49,065
- What is that?
- Crushed-up benzos.
1573
01:22:49,765 --> 01:22:53,036
Mix them with
her and Clay's drink, and um,
1574
01:22:53,069 --> 01:22:54,437
sleepy time.
1575
01:22:54,470 --> 01:22:56,705
You're bad.
1576
01:22:56,739 --> 01:22:59,075
[Holly] You're the one who said
I have to do what it takes to survive.
1577
01:22:59,108 --> 01:23:02,511
[intense dramatic music]
1578
01:23:05,748 --> 01:23:07,750
Am I good enough for you now?
1579
01:23:07,783 --> 01:23:09,918
[suspenseful music]
1580
01:23:09,952 --> 01:23:11,787
[gunfire bangs]
1581
01:23:17,826 --> 01:23:19,628
[food sizzling]
1582
01:23:20,296 --> 01:23:22,998
[footsteps tapping]
1583
01:23:25,268 --> 01:23:27,970
[gentle suspenseful music]
1584
01:23:28,003 --> 01:23:30,406
[jewelry thuds]
1585
01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:32,908
Making an omelet. Want some?
1586
01:23:32,941 --> 01:23:34,277
What are you putting in it?
1587
01:23:34,310 --> 01:23:35,844
Just cheddar cheese.
1588
01:23:35,878 --> 01:23:37,946
Yeah, I'll take some.
1589
01:23:37,980 --> 01:23:41,350
[gentle dramatic music]
1590
01:23:43,619 --> 01:23:46,255
How are you, baby?
1591
01:23:46,289 --> 01:23:49,525
[sighs] Everything
went according to the plan.
1592
01:23:51,827 --> 01:23:53,896
Thank God you figured it out.
1593
01:23:55,664 --> 01:23:58,033
I wouldn't have been
able to do it without you.
1594
01:23:58,834 --> 01:24:00,203
And I mean that.
1595
01:24:02,238 --> 01:24:06,142
- [birds chirping]
- [gentle suspenseful music]
1596
01:24:06,175 --> 01:24:09,278
Not everyone can smell
1597
01:24:09,312 --> 01:24:11,680
that scent of almonds.
1598
01:24:12,548 --> 01:24:16,085
It's genetic. Science Channel.
1599
01:24:17,320 --> 01:24:19,822
I'll wait a few more minutes
and then I'll call.
1600
01:24:19,855 --> 01:24:21,357
I'd wait till tomorrow
1601
01:24:21,390 --> 01:24:23,792
and be sure I knew all my lines.
1602
01:24:23,826 --> 01:24:28,664
Well, last person
I saw was my boyfriend,
1603
01:24:28,697 --> 01:24:32,000
but no, I don't
think he'd take my gun.
1604
01:24:32,034 --> 01:24:33,569
He has been a little depressed.
1605
01:24:33,602 --> 01:24:35,638
No, honey. Don't push it.
1606
01:24:35,671 --> 01:24:37,806
Let them bring up suicide.
1607
01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:39,074
Right, right.
1608
01:24:39,108 --> 01:24:40,709
- Yeah.
- [solemn music]
1609
01:24:40,743 --> 01:24:41,910
You up for this?
1610
01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:46,382
Actually, I'm kind of excited.
1611
01:24:46,415 --> 01:24:48,884
I mean, sort of like
opening-night-play excited.
1612
01:24:48,917 --> 01:24:50,153
[Holly laughs]
1613
01:24:50,619 --> 01:24:52,688
[Holly] As soon as
I reported my gun missing,
1614
01:24:52,721 --> 01:24:54,623
the police connected the dots.
1615
01:24:55,591 --> 01:24:59,027
Ballistics linked my gun
with Richard and Clay's deaths.
1616
01:24:59,061 --> 01:25:01,063
Soon Richard's
real name came out.
1617
01:25:01,096 --> 01:25:03,199
Then his history with Mariah.
1618
01:25:03,232 --> 01:25:05,134
The press had a field day.
1619
01:25:05,901 --> 01:25:08,171
Of course, the cops
had questions for me,
1620
01:25:08,604 --> 01:25:11,907
but Mariah was brilliant,
she made it all about her.
1621
01:25:11,940 --> 01:25:14,777
The woman so enthralling,
so enticing,
1622
01:25:14,810 --> 01:25:17,079
that two men died for her.
1623
01:25:17,112 --> 01:25:19,915
She had movie offers
by the end of the week.
1624
01:25:19,948 --> 01:25:21,584
And it turned
out that I didn't need
1625
01:25:21,617 --> 01:25:24,220
some actors showcase
to make things happen.
1626
01:25:24,253 --> 01:25:26,955
So I took class,
I hung out with Mariah,
1627
01:25:26,989 --> 01:25:28,591
signed with her agent,
1628
01:25:28,624 --> 01:25:31,594
and started actually
working as an actress.
1629
01:25:31,627 --> 01:25:34,129
[gentle dramatic music]
1630
01:25:34,163 --> 01:25:35,964
I still think
back to that night,
1631
01:25:36,665 --> 01:25:38,834
about what it was
like to kill Richard.
1632
01:25:39,902 --> 01:25:42,438
It was like killing
a part of myself,
1633
01:25:42,471 --> 01:25:45,408
the part that was
sheltered and innocent.
1634
01:25:47,610 --> 01:25:49,978
Well, good riddance.
1635
01:25:56,685 --> 01:26:00,423
[gentle dramatic music]
1636
01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:14,303
- [trap snaps]
- [rat squeaking]
1637
01:26:14,337 --> 01:26:17,540
[gentle morose music]
1638
01:26:22,678 --> 01:26:26,048
[gentle dramatic music]
1639
01:26:26,815 --> 01:26:29,985
[slow upbeat music]
1640
01:26:39,462 --> 01:26:42,365
* String my silhouette *
1641
01:26:42,398 --> 01:26:46,535
* Traces of cologne and smoke *
1642
01:26:46,569 --> 01:26:50,005
* The moon is realizing *
1643
01:26:50,038 --> 01:26:54,843
* Everything
that you had hoped *
1644
01:26:54,877 --> 01:26:57,546
* In your bungalow *
1645
01:26:57,580 --> 01:27:02,451
* All the lines
are crisp and clean *
1646
01:27:02,485 --> 01:27:05,120
* But you can't forget *
1647
01:27:05,153 --> 01:27:06,655
* What you saw *
1648
01:27:06,689 --> 01:27:10,058
* When you were just 16 *
1649
01:27:12,595 --> 01:27:17,666
- [slow upbeat music]
- [singer humming]
1650
01:27:36,452 --> 01:27:39,688
[gentle staccato music]
1651
01:27:39,722 --> 01:27:44,259
* Hangers in an empty closet *
1652
01:27:44,293 --> 01:27:47,730
* A hat perched on a chair *
1653
01:27:47,763 --> 01:27:51,334
* You remember that
one moment *
1654
01:27:51,367 --> 01:27:54,870
* You were left
just standing there *
1655
01:27:54,903 --> 01:27:59,107
* A dark stain
spreading on the carpet *
1656
01:27:59,141 --> 01:28:03,546
* This can't be happening *
1657
01:28:03,579 --> 01:28:08,384
* Electric shock's
awaken all the places *
1658
01:28:08,417 --> 01:28:11,554
* You have ever been *
1659
01:28:12,988 --> 01:28:17,993
