Um... I'm so hot.

Last time I'm in Paris,

I took this crowning class.

With this like, awesome old

French teacher

who'd basically would tell us that

we sucked and were not funny.

But it was like, amazing, you know.

Who'd always tell us like...

F*** us mean focus, you know.

Um, do you know comedia at all?

No, no I don't think so.

Okay. There's this thing.

It's called entrances and exits right.

And so, you start behind the thing

and then you just like, you enter.

Right. And you have to be in a state. It's got

to be like happy, anger, fear, sad, right.

So you enter and your like right at the

audience and then you have a partner and then

you toss it to your partner and then they

take it and toss it back to you, right.

- And then, that's basically it.

- Oh.

- So, yeah.

- Pretty cool.

- It's pretty useful right.

- Um hm...

Totally normal that

I just took my bra off right.

No, it's not.

Sorry.

Guess, I'm just weird.

No. Let's do it again.

Let's do it again.

- Come on.

- Sorry.

- Come on. Breathe. F***.

- Sorry, sorry. Okay.

Oh God, I'm just a

little nervous. Oh God!

Start, start over.

I can do it.

- You want this job?

- Of course

- Why, why do you want it?

- Because...

It's going to be great and...

Working with you.

Don't do that... Katie...

Why do you want to be an actor?

Because...

- I love it.

- Why?

Because...

I like pretending

to be someone else.

Um... Am I

doing something wrong?

You scare me.

- You scare me.

- You got this production in the palm of your hand.

And no one knows

who the f*** you are.

I mean I don't...

I don't really matter

as much as you do.

You're going to be amazing

and as long as I look good,

and we have good chemistry or whatever

I think it's going to be great.

I think you're right.

Where's that gift I got you.

Will you teach me?

What? What are you talking about?

Teach you what?

Like... Teach me

how to be funny like you.

- You're funny.

- I mean, thank you but like...

- You are amazing.

- I know.

- No seriously.

- I'm serious too.

- I f***, I'm f***ing serious.

- You are. I am right. No I was watching you last night

and you're just like so present

when you're on stage and...

So charismatic and no one

can take their eyes of you.

- It's hard.

- I'm being serious.

I know, that's what I'm talking about.

It's f***... I get it.

I mean, is that just something

you have naturally like

or you have been like that since

you were a kid or whatever

or did you somehow learn that?

I... I don't...

I... Both... I...

I don't know.

- Will you do a scene with me?

- What?

- No.

Come on. I'll start it. Oh wait

let me think. Uh... Okay.

Thank you for my anniversary present.

I love it.

That's the scene. Thank you for my

anniversary present. I love it.

This is dumb.

This sucks.

All right. Well,

I don't know.

Will you just tell me then.

This is ridiculous.

What are you talking about?

Just like tell me how

You could teach me.

I'll be right back, okay.

Okay.

Turn around.

Can you submit to me?

- Yeah.

- Are you sure?

- Yes.

- Don't f*** with me.

I'm not.

- Are you my maiden?

- Yeah.

- I don't believe you.

I am,

I am your maiden and I submit to you.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Leave me a message.

Hey, why isn't your phone on.

It's been like 3 hours.

Are you still rehearsing or what?

Just call me when you can. Okay?

I went to far.

It's okay.

Let's keep exploring together.

I want to keep going.

I trust you.

- Everything okay?

- Yeah. Fine.

I got a gun today.

Are you serious?

- Yep.

- Oh my God. That is so f***ing cool.

- You think so?

- F*** yeah.

I mean I don't have one

but I totally get it.

You're gonna want one

if sh*t goes down right?

- That was exactly what I was thinking.

- Um hm... Can I see it?

- No.

- Oh come on. Please, I've never held a gun before.

- Not gonna happen.

- Please. I'll be super, super careful with it.

I promise.

- No way.

- Come on. Show it to me.

I should go.

- I'm gonna head out. Okay. This is all my fault.

- No.

- What the f*** are you doing?

- I'm sorry.

Don't do that okay. Why did you do that?

Why did we do that?

I don't know. I like you.

F***.

No stop. Don't go.

I'm just. Uh...

- I just... I got to go.

- Please, I'm sorry.

- Come Loaf. We got to go.

- Paul, please.

Do you have any idea

the size of this thing?

And, and, and, and what's at

stake for me here.

- Do you?

- - Of course.

No you don't. It's your first f***ing job.

How could you? Seriously?

I mean, I did a pilot last year.

You have no idea what it's

like to direct something.

Let alone something

that you wrote.

I have people calling me

constantly asking me questions.

I created a f***ing monster here

and now it's eating me alive.

- Okay.

- Look, I get it. You are under so much pressure.

But you know, you're brilliant

and every one knows it.

This project is going to be

huge for you. Huge!

F***!

And you know,

you just won an Oscar.

I mean, most people can barely even

dream of finding that kinda success,

and you did it. And you

will always have that.

This mini series

is gonna be amazing.

But even if it isn't, you've already

proven your self to the whole world.

Why am I so scared?

I get it.

Having this kind of power

is really scary.

I'm sorry for putting

you through all this.

It's okay.

You're a beautiful,

intelligent, sexy woman.

Nobody should ever tell you

other wise.

- Bryan, stop. I shouldn't.

- You said you were my maiden.

- I am, but I...

- Submit to me.

- I... I shouldn't. I can't.

- You have to.

- I...

- I'm the Master.

What the f***?

- Oh boy.

- Oh my God. It's not, it's not what it looks like.

- What the f*** are you doing?

- Nothing.

It's Okay. No need

to get upset here. Hey.

Hey, don't touch my

f***ing dog man.

What are you doing with my girl friend.

Loafie come here.

We were just exploring

character stuff.

Exploring character stuff.

What the f*** is wrong with you?

Hey, Don't talk to her
