Cattle Call Page #4

which I'm like,

really positive move for me.

- That's great.|- Oh, and I just met Rover Murdick.

And he wants to do an entire project|around my aura.

So I'm, like, really|blessed about that.

Very, very blessed about that.

How are you?

I don't get it. What do you mean?

How am I physically?

Like my core? My being?

I asked you to tell me|more about yourself,

and you told me how your|business is going, and...

So I was just curious|how you're doing, you know.

I get it. I get it. Yeah.

Well, I have allergies|bordering on chronic asthma

and a nasty yeast infection.

And my publicist is doing this really|great endorsement tie-in thing with it.

Oh, here's the thing.

Mercury is in retrograde right now,

so...

even if you offered me the part,

I can't do it.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Did you say|that... that they're doing

a promotional campaign|on your little problem down there?

Sort of like that, yeah.

How does that work?

Well, it's, um,|Vagina Awareness Week.

Let's see...

somebody who's passionate.

Somebody who has dreams|and ambition

and supports mine.

Lenny, hey, hi.

"Lenny, hi?"

Where the hell are you?

Lenny, I explained everything

about my game plan|in the note I left you.

"Had to go. Know you'll understand.|Love, Marina. "

That note?

Uh, that's the one.

You know how hard it is|to find a great assistant?

I'm sorry, but, uh, even though I love you,

you're fired.

I'm gonna be an actress.

If it kills me,

I'm gonna do this.

Meant to be we,

or not meant to be we.

I prefer to exist alone

rather than partake|in a meaningless love.

I seek completeness.

And I shall one day shareth it,

wheneth my true king thy come,

and I your true queen shall be done.

Never me,

always we.

Bravo, bravo.

You liked it?

Yeah.

What the hell was it?

Oh, it was just something I wrote|on my way across country.

So how do you like Hollywood so far?

So far, so good.

It'll be better when my dog and I|have a place we can call home.

Where are you living now?

Oh, well, it's kind of embarrassing.

Oh, really? What,|are you in Orange County?

I've been sleeping in my car.

Well, that's not embarrassing.

- Right.|- No, it's really not.

L... You know...|I've...

I've slept in... in my car before.

And I don't know about you,|but I... I had fun.

It's... It's kinda like camping.

Okay, good.

What's the clapping for?

The song is over.

What song?

On the sound system.

Right.

So, how's it going with the movie?

Glenn?

We listening to the music again?

I had a dream last night|that Don Knotts tried to kill me.

That's disturbing.

It was.

I bet.

Especially since he is so beloved.

Right.

Do you like me?

Oh, wow.

You know, I don't know you so well, Glenn.

That's kind of hard|to comment on right now.

Do you hate me?

No.

But if you give me a minute...

Well, if you don't like me

and you don't hate me,

you love me.

Excuse me?

Well, first you like someone,|then you love someone.

Then you hate someone.

Love is in between like and hate.

So, you don't like me,

you don't hate me.

You love me.

Wow.

- Okay.|- Okay.

Okay.

- Hello?|- I didn't hear your phone ring.

It's... It's on silent.|It's just this little light.

Yeah. No, I'm here.

Yeah, sure. No problem.

Yeah, like, I can be there in ten minutes.

Yeah, okay. Thanks. Bye.

Oh, drag. I gotta go to work.

Sucks. Hate it there.

But, you know, it pays the bills,

so I'm sorry, I gotta go.

Can I help you?

- Can I help you?|- Help me?

- Yeah.|- No. No, I think I'm good.

But, well, thanks anyway.

Okay? See you.

Thank you for wearing|those shoes.

You know, the auditions?

Right, so we're still|in audition mode?

What, did you think this was|some sort of date?

Oh, I don't know.

L...

Would you go|on a date with me?

I mean, maybe if you weren't|the producer of this movie.

If my boyfriend promises|to eat at my restaurant

and my restaurant only,

that I'm open 24 hours a day,|7 days a week.

Your style is so, like, rock star.
