00:00 Oh my god! Morning!

00:03 [Laughter]

00:05 Careful with what you ask me.

00:07 [Music]

00:13 What the hell is this?

00:15 [Music]

00:17 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.

00:24 Yeah, well we...

00:25 With Craig, where we kind of went through the first three episodes and stuff.

00:27 And then we just sort of went...

00:30 Straight in.

00:31 Yeah.

00:32 But we really only sort of saw each other as Tommy and Pamela as well.

00:36 So there was this cool like...

00:38 It kind of felt really real and...

00:40 I texted Lily before we started shooting and I said,

00:45 "I'm going to really have to hold your hand for this whole thing.

00:49 And you can hold mine too."

00:51 Yeah, that's really good.

00:52 "And we're going to be okay."

00:54 But...

00:55 Yeah, it was great.

00:57 It felt really...

00:58 Like we really did trust each other.

01:00 And having Craig, who obviously Sebastian's worked with leading the way at the front.

01:04 It felt really...

01:06 You know, we had great conversations and felt...

01:10 We were definitely all on the same page and looking after each other.

01:13 Totally.

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

01:17 That's amazing!

01:19 Recreating barbed wire was amazing.

01:21 We did that section with Lake Bell, who was one of the directors.

01:24 She's so cool.

01:25 She's got so much energy.

01:27 It was just really, really wild and very, very surreal.

01:32 And Baywatch was...

01:33 I mean, it was just...

01:34 It was amazing.

01:35 A huge amount of, obviously, pressure and responsibility.

01:38 But I...

01:39 It was...

01:41 It was just very surreal and really quite thrilling.

01:45 I thought the scene we did in...

01:47 Two, when we're...

01:49 Oh, it's fun when we're watching TV.

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

01:55 Yeah, I think the scene...

01:57 Yeah, I love those two scenes for sure.

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

02:02 Yeah!

02:03 I know!

02:05 I think it's the end of two, yeah.

02:07 But again, I think selfishly for me, right?

02:10 Like, I'll say I feel maybe more biased towards any of the scenes that they have together.

02:18 You know?

02:19 Because I think that sort of captured a very unique and intense and passionate kind of connection

02:28 that clearly they had.

02:31 Yeah.

02:32 Hi! The building manager sent me about your sink.

02:35 Oh, great! Thank you.

02:36 Come on in. Come on in.

02:38 I'm Erica, by the way.

02:45 I mean, there's not a lot about her, but there's enough.

02:50 You know, she's a really interesting woman.

02:52 She starred in all these pornographic films and started directing porn.

03:01 One of the first females to ever direct.

03:04 And then she became a physical therapist and got married and had a child and moved to Florida.

03:11 Just this very interesting woman who knew who she was and what she wasn't

03:18 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 on some level.

03:24 No. No way that thing's going in my ass.

03:28 And, yeah, I mean, there's some stuff on the internet, right?

03:33 But there's not a lot.

03:34 A lot of what I did was just chatting with the writers and who the Erica in the world of this show is.

03:44 Stop smiling. It's a fucking dungeon.

03:47 Seth is the kindest, most generous human.

03:50 And we had--it was like not a big deal, 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 on this show.

04:03 And everything was sort of planned 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.

04:14 That wasn't--it didn't serve the story.

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

04:19 I'm glad we could a little bit.

04:20 Everyone's beautiful and perfect.

04:24 Is that how you feel? Like you have to please people?

04:27 It's all I do.
