Killer Movie
I believe--
I truthfully believe
that reality television
has saved television.
I-I--you know,
actors, writers,
producers, directors,
agents,
we all aspire to
the truth, you know.
And what greater truth
is there than reality?
Even when it's scripted.

Look at these one-touch passes.
There's no doubt
Vance Carhartt is the stick
that stirs the diggers' drink
this season.
Yeah! Oh!
Okay, tell me how excited you are
about the diggers possibly
going to the finals.
To see this town go far,
it's just--
it's the most amazing
feeling in the world
and we have such
an amazing team.
We are just so blessed
by Jesus Christ,
and I know that he
really wants us
to win state.
Um, I'm gonna change
gears a little bit.
You're friends
with Jaynie Hansen.
Have you spoken to her
since her father
was released from prison?
Um...
I don't think I'm supposed
to talk about that.
Erin, let's wrap this up.
I have to go now.
I'm telling you there's
something off, Lee.
These people aren't
as clueless as you think.
They've got
good bullshit detectors.
Now if--
make that when they find out
what we're up to,
there's gonna be
hell to pay.
Hey, Ted.
- What?
When Blanca gets here,
like such a limp dick
little douche.
She'll walk all over you.
Ted just couldn't
handle her, you know?
He was just
a little--a little wimpy,
and Lee let him have it,
so he had to go.
Ugh.
Yes, I fired Ted,
if that's what
you want to know.
I told him he could
finish out the week.
It gave me a few days
to find his replacement.
This is Margo Moorehead
reporting live
outside the Culver City
Courthouse,
where it looks like
even more bad news
for Blanca Champion.
On the heels of her
well-publicized
bout with exhaustion
come allegations
of assault and battery
from John Jordan,
a production assistant
on the set of hew new movie
Hush Hush.
As expected,
Jordan filed suit today
against Champion
and Affiliated Studios.
Allegedly Champion found
the green tea latte
delivered to her trailer
by Jordan not to her liking.
That's when sources say
Champion proceeded
to hurl the scolding hot
drink at Jordan
causing second degree burns
from his torso,
well, down to his
more delicate regions.
In a statement released
this morning,
Champion swears the beverage
was only lukewarm,
which is indeed why she
threw it at him
in the first place.
This is Margo
reporting live--
Hey.
Wait, John, where exactly
were you burned?
Can you show us again?
- John, just one question.
I, uh, I was
starting to think
that I'd never work again.
Oh, stop it, stop it.
Come on.
All right, I'm excited.
Tell me about this job.
I'm serious, okay,
it's a great concept
for a reality show.
Now picture this.
A small border town.
The high school hockey team
on a 100-year losing streak
winds up with a star forward
for the first time
in the school's history,
and they got a shot
at the State Championship.
Production's running
a little bit behind.
They need
a solid director,
and I told them
you're the guy.
Underdog sports team.
Kid makes good.
I like it.
I knew it, I knew it!
Now get this.
The team's called
the Gold Diggers.
They're from this
tiny little town
called White Plains
in North Dakota.
They're gonna--
North Dakota?
Oh, wow.
Uh, border town kind of
makes it sound like Mexico.
Uh, I don't know, Seaton.
I'm from San Diego.
I think I might freeze
my ass off.
Two words, Jake--
global warming.
My assistant
looked it up online.
It's like Cabo
up there right now.
Ohh.
When did you say
your condo payment was due?
Okay, look, I know
back on the ranch
getting cancelled
like that as tough on you.
I know, I get it, okay?
Now get over it.
This will boost
your confidence.
And besides, the network
would really consider
this one a favor.
And actually,
there's one more thing.
What?
Blanca Champion is
gonna be up there with you.
Blanca Champion?
You're joking, right?
I never joke
when there's a commission
involved, Jake.
Her next movie is with
the network's film division,
and she's playing
a reality television director
who uncovers some
major political scandal.
I haven't
read the script yet.
She wants to do
the whole method thing.
You know, be taken
seriously as an actress.
And since you and Blanca
work so well together,
the network thought
that she could observe you.
Work well together?
Seaton, I was
her production assistant
on her first movie.
I was
a glorified babysitter.
I doubt
she even remembers me.
Well, she guess what?
Now only does
she remember you,
she loves, loves,
loves the idea.
She said this time around
she could be your P.A.
Besides, with all
the bad publicity
she's been getting lately,
she could use
a little babysitting.
Seaton, let me
get this straight.
You want me to go
to a remote town
in a red state
that borders Canada
with Blanca Champion
pretending
to fetch people coffee?
Wait, Seaton,
that's ridiculous.
I'm not that broke.
And to be honest with you,
life is too short.
And how's it even possible?
You know what it's like
going out in public with her.
She draws crowds
like the Beatles.
No, no, no.
That's the beauty, Jake.
The townspeople have signed
non-disclosure agreements.
You and Blanca are gonna be
in the middle of nowhere.
Only studio publicity
knows about it.
And by the time the world
press gets wind of it,
your show will be wrapped.
And best of all,
they're gonna pay your rate.
Yeah, huh!
Yeah, you're welcome.
And besides,
getting out of town
might help you
get over the break-up too.
Thanks for going
there, Seaton.
Oh, come on, Jake.
If my fiancee left me for some
dip-sh*t kid from survivor,
I'd jump at the chance
to get out of town.
Can I bring my dog?
Yeah, I thought this would
be a great thing for Jake.
You know,
when your personal life
