I can talk about this all day.

I can talk about it all month.

No, I'm just happy to do

it with you guys again.

So, Bill, you said

you're an actor, too?

- Paul.

- Sorry, yeah, Paul.

No, no, it's cool, man.

I'm an actor, you know.

Haven't won any Oscars.

Yeah, I act. You know,

a lot of comedy stuff.

Uh, Paul's an

amazing improviser.

- I am all right.

- Babe...

Uh, the upright bridge?

Oh, yeah, upright bridge.

Bridge service?

- Yeah.

- Hmm?

- The improv...

- The comedy thing...

- No I don't...

- Yeah it's a comedy club. It's real big.

You should check that out.

- Pete, you gotta do that.

- It's Bill. Bill.

Paul.

I want to thank all of you

for being here with me.

It's uh, a real pleasure

to dine with you.

But most of all,

I'd like to thank my little Katie bear.

For being so open and willing

to go on this journey with me.

This thing is about to get

so real so fast.

I had this room built halfway through

my first draft of the Master's Maiden.

I refused to enter it

till it was complete.

I wanted to experience it

for the first time.

Just like Lucy.

To really get inside of her

while I was writing.

What was that like for her?

To feel a level of arousal that

she's probably never known.

Is she's scared?

Excited?

Maybe a little of both?

The smell of the leather.

What does that do to her?

Her life,

as she had always understood it,

changed.

In an instant.

- Hello.

- Hi Katie. This is Jason Shepard's manager...

Oh. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Okay, thanks. Bye.

What was that all about?

I'm leaving tomorrow now.

- What? Why?

- I don't know.

Something about the location

backing out or something.

I don't know.

Do you know what time

you're leaving yet?

- Car's coming at noon.

- F***!

Oh!

- I'm gonna miss you so much.

- I know, me too.

Hey. What do you want to do

on our last day together?

Honestly babe.

I have so much to do,

I don't even know how much time

we're gonna have together.

- What?

- Ugh!

What are you talking about?

I have to pack and get a wrap.

I can't believe

I drank so much last night.

I'm gonna be bloated for days.

Hi. Hi, is there any

chance at all

that you have time for a

detoxifying contour wrap today?

I know, okay. Thanks.

You're gonna get a wrap

instead of spend time with me?

I have to, babe.

I'm gonna be like naked

and sh*t for this thing.

Love yourself.

Love myself.

I love you.

I love you.

What do you think Loaf? Is this crazy

or we going to get killed or something?

Oh boy!

Come on, Loaf.

- I just had the detoxifying contour wrap.

- With Michael?

Yes.

- I have a 3 o'clock.

- Okay.

- Rebecca?

- Mm-hmm.

It's Katie.

Uh... Um, I'm really good friends

with Alex Wilson Dickson.

He's introduced us

a couple of times.

And then, um... Also,

- So.

- Oh!

Yeah I'm... I just had the detoxifying

counter wrap so I must look totally insane.

- I just did not recognize you.

- I know.

- How, how you been?

- Good. I'm good.

It's actually so crazy that

I'm running into you right now

'cause, I'm actually going to do that mini

series that you I guess are unavailable for.

- Oh... Um...

- "Masters Maiden".

- Right! Hey congrats.

- Thank you. Yeah, but oh my God!

PT Anderson, you

must be flipping out.

I mean Paul's a good friend,

so when he called and asked me to do this,

I just felt like I had to

do this, you know.

And secretly I was happy to get out

of that mini series thing. I mean,

doesn't it feel like your getting tied

up and f***ed over and over again

in like a dungeon or whatever.

I mean, not to say

it's just uh...

It's going to be an awesome job for you.

I just mean it's um...

No, yeah, I get it.

I totally get it.

- Objectifying. Yeah.

- Totally. Yeah.

So the contour wrap,

that works for you?

Yeah, I mean this is only like

the second time I've done it,

but the first time

I totally saw results.

- Weird, I kinda felt it was like bullshit.

- Really?

Yeah. If I were you, I mean this what I

do when I wanna lose weight super fast.

- What?

- I just put on like, the thickest warmest sweats

I can find like a wool hat

or just whatever.

A hat and I do jumping jacks.

- For three hours straight.

- Three hours?

You'll wake up tomorrow

and be super skinny.

Yeah, people will be

worried about you.

- I got to take this.

- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Go, go, go.

- Is that Rebecca Moss?

- Yeah.

- She's so beautiful.

- Yeah.

- Thanks.

- Thanks.

Bye.

I'll see you soon.

I'll see you soon. Bye.

Gosh.

Really is like Taxi Driver.

What?

F***! What? F***!

Please pardon

my insolence, Master.

'Tis wrong of me to say it.

Please pardon

my insolence, Master.

Hello?

Hey. Just checking in.

You okay?

Yeah, yeah, just working out.

How are you?

You getting writing done?

You know, it's a lot of

digging and throwing stuff out but uh,

yeah, um...

Going to take a break.

Probably take Loaf to the dog park.

- Yes, she'll love that.

- And then we'll come home around five like we planned?

Okay, great. Sounds good.

- Love you.

- Thanks.

I-I love you too.

Please pardon

my insolence, Master.

- Hey!

- Lucy, I'm downstairs.

- Let me in.

- I can't... I'm sorry, what?

It's Charlie.

Open the door.

I'm downstairs.

Open the door.

Um... I'm sorry, it's not such

a great time right now, Bryan.

Call me Charlie.

Okay. Yeah, just, just uh...

Give me five minutes.

Okay.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Hey, babe, I'm so sorry.

I got to push back our plans tonight.

- Why?

- Because Bryan J. Macy just showed up.

What?

At our place? Why?

Yeah, yeah. I don't know, babe.

Honestly, I don't know.

He just showed up.

Can you imagine?

Maybe he wants to

rehearse or something.

Are you taking a bath?

Yeah, obviously.

I'm all sweaty and gross.

I'll call you so soon.

We're gonna be done really soon.

- Babe, I love you.

- Okay.

Hello?

What up? What?

What did you say?

What did you say?

- Nothing.

- Oh.

I was just waiting for you

to get closer.

Oh well. Here I am.

- What did you want to say?

- Nothing.

- Hello.

- - Hello

- Oh my God! Is that your dog?

- Yeah.

He's so cute. What's his name?

- Uh, her name's Loafie.

- Oh, her name.

- Sorry.

- That's quite all right.

It's very common, you know.

She's not offended.

I can tell.

She's a bad ass b*tch.

Yeah. She's a...

Tough cookie. She's good.

- Um...

- What's up?

- Do you, do you wanna get high?

- On weed?

Yeah, yeah, on weed.

- I could do that.

- Yeah?

- Yeah, yeah.

- Yeah.

- Do you have it?

- I mean not on me but...

- At my place.

- Huh... Sh*t.

Doesn't really help us here,

does it?

I... Well... I could go back

and get it.

Nah... You're already here.

You already came. It's fine.

I don't have to smoke weed all the time.

I can just be a regular human.

Or we could go back to my place?

- Yeah.

- Yeah?

- I mean, do you wanna do that?

- Yeah, yeah, you know, that's where the weed is.

- Good point.

- Yeah.

- Um...

- I'm really close.

- Yeah, I'll show you.
