00:00 Oh my god. Morning!

00:02 (laughing)

00:05 Careful with what you ask me.

00:06 (upbeat music)

00:09 What the hell is this?

00:14 (upbeat music)

00:16 We really didn't have very much rehearsal or anything.

00:20 Yeah.

00:21 So we--

00:22 Yeah, we have one rehearsal I think.

00:23 Yeah, where we--

00:24 With Craig, where we kinda went through

00:25 the first three episodes and stuff,

00:27 and then we just sort of went--

00:30 Straight in.

00:30 Yeah.

00:31 But we really only sort of saw each other

00:34 as Tommy and Pamela as well,

00:36 so there was this cool, like,

00:37 it kind of felt really real and--

00:40 I texted Lily before we started shooting

00:44 and I said, "I'm gonna really have to hold your hand

00:48 "for this whole thing, and you can hold mine too."

00:51 Yeah, that's how we did it.

00:52 "And we're gonna, you know, we're gonna be okay."

00:54 But--

00:55 Yeah, we did, it was great.

00:57 It felt really, like we really did trust each other,

01:00 and having Craig, who obviously Sebastian's worked with,

01:02 leading the way at the front,

01:04 it felt really, you know, we had great conversations

01:09 and felt we were definitely all on the same page

01:12 and looking after each other.

01:13 Totally.

01:14 For the next few months, I am 24/7 barbed wire.

01:17 (laughs)

01:18 That's amazing.

01:19 Recreating barbed wire was amazing.

01:21 We did that section with Lake Bell,

01:23 who was one of the directors, and she's so cool.

01:25 She's got so much energy, and it was just really,

01:28 really wild and very, very surreal.

01:31 And Baywatch was, I mean, it was just,

01:34 it was amazing.

01:34 A huge amount of, obviously, pressure and responsibility,

01:37 but I,

01:38 it was just very surreal and really quite thrilling.

01:44 I thought the scene we did in two, when we're,

01:48 oh, it's fun when we're watching the TV,

01:52 and also when you cook the Greek dinner for me.

01:54 Yeah, I think the scene, yeah,

01:57 I love those two scenes for sure.

01:59 I mean, when they're watching King and I.

02:02 (cheering)

02:04 I think it's the end of two, yeah.

02:06 But again, it's, I mean, I think selfishly for me, right,

02:10 like I'll say, I feel maybe more biased

02:13 towards any of the scenes that they have together.

02:17 (laughs)

02:18 You know, because I think that sort of captured

02:23 sort of a very unique and intense and passionate

02:27 kind of connection that clearly they had, so.

02:31 Yeah.

02:32 Hi, the building manager sent me about your sink.

02:34 Oh, great, thank you.

02:36 Come on in, come on in.

02:37 I'm Erica, by the way.

02:40 (upbeat music)

02:42 I mean, there's not a lot about her,

02:48 but there's enough, you know.

02:50 She's a really interesting woman.

02:52 She, you know, starred in all these,

02:55 in all these pornographic films

02:58 and started directing porn,

03:01 one of like the first females to ever direct.

03:04 And then she became a physical therapist

03:07 and got married and had a child and moved to Florida.

03:10 Just this very interesting woman

03:14 who knew who she was and what she wasn't

03:17 and didn't really give a shit about what anyone else thought,

03:21 which is, I think, what we all sort of aspire to

03:23 on some level.

03:24 Hmm, no, no way that thing's going in my ass.

03:27 And, yeah, I mean, there's some stuff on the internet,

03:32 right, but there's not a lot.

03:34 A lot of what I did was like just chatting with the writers

03:38 and what, who the Erica in the world of this show is.

03:43 Stop smiling.

03:45 It's a fucking dungeon.

03:46 Seth is the kindest, most generous human.

03:50 And we had, it was like not a big deal,

03:53 which is crazy, but that's what my experience was.

03:57 It was not a big deal.

03:58 They had this really great intimacy coordinator

04:00 on this show and everything was sort of planned

04:05 and prepped and talked about.

04:08 And, yeah, so it was a delight.

04:11 We didn't need to see Erica at work very often.

04:13 That wasn't, it didn't serve the story,

04:15 but I thought it was awesome to see her at work.

04:18 I'm glad we could a little bit.

04:20 Everyone's beautiful and perfect.

04:24 Is that how you feel?

04:25 Like you have to please people?

04:26 It's all I do.

04:27 (upbeat music)
