Obviously.

But now, I think when you

push that baby out,

it's time you start making your first film.

All right.

She in there?

Yeah, she's in there.

Excellent. Daisy?

- Yeah?

- Please listen.

- Okay.

- When you are a producer,

and you wish to hire one of my clients,

I'm gonna take you to the wall.

No hard feelings.

I am going to take you to the wall.

- Okay, yeah, no.

- Great.

Want to open the door?

Yeah, of course.

You don't have to.

You're f***ing fired.

No, I just... Oh, God.

Thank you.

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

I have a meeting.

What the f*** are you doing here?

Same.

How's your face?

Feels worse than it looks.

Looks pretty awful.

Yeah. How's yours?

I almost died.

It's not your fault.

Come in. Welcome.

Have a seat.

Hey.

Apparently, everybody knows

everybody here.

What is everyone doing here?

All will be revealed.

Have a seat.

This is some situation we got here.

- I'm really sorry.

- Look, no. It's my responsibility.

- You were right, Jemma.

- No, this is the worst thing I've ever done.

- Would you let me finish...

- I'm so...

It's good.

What's good?

This. This is good.

You think so?

You really think so?

I think what my client is trying to say

is we are making this movie.

You're what's-his-name.

Jack.

Jack what?

- Holden.

- Jack Holden.

- Yeah.

- Jack.

You're a naughty boy, aren't you, Jack?

- Could be.

- Really?

Yeah.

Whoa.

Ten years ago,

that would've been a yes.

I would've been in fourth grade.

Ten years ago.

Yeah.

My daughter's in fourth grade.

Good-bye, bad girl.

Hey.

Hey.

She said you were out here.

Used to smoke a lot of weed out here.

What about now?

Not anymore.

That's good.

It's never gonna go away, is it?

No.

But we're still here.

That's something.

Am I gonna see you again?

No, never.

You know where to find me.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Look, they're not gonna make me

share a f***ing room, are they?

No, I got you a private suite.

It's the best one they got.

It's gonna be just like staying

at a fancy hotel for a couple of months.

Without the minibar.

I don't want to see you anymore.

Professionally.
