Transcript
00:00Okay, Joey, ready for your big stunt?
00:06I'm ready. I'm psyched.
00:07Let's go over this one more time, all right?
00:09Boone is going to lunge at you with a hunting knife.
00:11You're going to dodge your left, knock his arm to the right,
00:13punch him in the chin, flip him to the mark on the ground.
00:15You got all that?
00:16I got it. Let's do this.
00:17Okay, everybody, let's go from the top.
00:22Woo!
00:23Woo!
00:25Woo!
00:27Woo!
00:27Woo!
00:29Hey.
00:30You're the makeup lady.
00:32Are we still off for tonight?
00:40Come on!
00:42Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, everything's going to be all right.
00:48Come on!
00:52Everything's going to be all right now, everything's going to be all right now,
00:56All right, you're all right, you want to be all right, you got to watch all.
01:01All right, you're all right, you want to be all right, you got to watch all.
01:10Hey, buddy.
01:12Oh, thanks.
01:12All right.
01:13Thanks for the ride, Mike.
01:14Yeah.
01:15Hey, yo, man, I'm going to hang out here until they start serving breakfast.
01:18Well, I bought you breakfast on the way.
01:20And I said, thank you, let it go.
01:24Damn it.
01:25Here comes that script supervisor lady.
01:27She is constantly up my butt, making sure I get every line perfect.
01:32Hate her.
01:34She is kind of funny, though.
01:35I mean, she had this really good joke the other day.
01:37I don't remember the details, but it was something about you being stupid.
01:41Yeah, that was pretty funny.
01:44There you are.
01:46It's time to play a little game I like to call How Many Lines Does Joey Know?
01:49You know what?
01:50Why don't you go bother someone else, okay?
01:52I know the next scene word for word.
01:54Really?
01:54Yeah.
01:54Let's hear it.
01:55What's your first line?
01:59Okay, fine.
02:01I have someone...
02:02We had...
02:02Had...
02:02Someone...
02:03Something.
02:03Something.
02:06We had something good.
02:08No, great.
02:09I mean...
02:09Wonderful.
02:10Wonderful.
02:11We had something wonderful until Valentine's Day.
02:15Christmas?
02:17Easter?
02:18What is it?
02:20We had something wonderful until the day they kidnapped our son.
02:24Yeah, I got it.
02:26I got it.
02:27Okay, so I forget a few words.
02:29Got me some slack, Allie.
02:31Abby!
02:31Whatever!
02:37Hey, Joey, how'd you get here before me?
02:40I'm not Joey.
02:41I'm Chuck.
02:41I'm a stuntman.
02:43Hey, I'm Zach.
02:44I'm handling craft services.
02:46All right.
02:46Hey, listen.
02:47Whatever you do, stay away from the roast beef.
02:48Oh, why?
02:49Is it bad?
02:49No, I like it.
02:52Hey, Zach.
02:55Hey, we're wearing the same...
02:57Did I get fired already?
02:59No.
03:00No, no.
03:00Joey, I'm Chuck.
03:01I'm your stuntman.
03:02Oh.
03:03Hey.
03:04Just so you know, I wanted to do my own stunts, but they didn't want to damage the merchandise.
03:09No, no, no, no.
03:10It's because you beat up the makeup lady.
03:12Try to look cool in front of my stuntman.
03:17Anyway, you know, we got that big fight scene coming up later.
03:20Do you mind if I see how you take a punch?
03:22Yeah, sure.
03:22All right.
03:23Hey, hey, wait, wait, wait, wait.
03:24I know what would be better.
03:25If he saw how you would take a punch, that way he can learn how to react like you.
03:28That's a great idea.
03:30All right, hit me, Chuck.
03:32Lay one in there, yep.
03:33Okay.
03:34Oh!
03:36Oh, you broke my tummy.
03:54You got that tough guy?
03:57Hey, listen, Joey, so would it be cool if I shadowed you for a while?
04:00You know, get to learn your moves and your mannerisms?
04:03Absolutely.
04:03You know, you should follow me around in my everyday life, too, you know?
04:06Yeah.
04:06You see how I eat, how I walk, how I dance.
04:09Huh?
04:10Come on.
04:11Oh, hey.
04:11Huh?
04:12Yeah.
04:12Yeah.
04:13All right.
04:14Oh.
04:14If you're waiting for an invitation, it ain't gonna happen.
04:18Because we're dancing.
04:21And we're dancing.
04:22Oh, yeah.
04:23Oh, yeah.
04:27Hey.
04:28So, Joey, Bobby got a call today from Us Magazine.
04:31They're running a picture of you out in town with a lady.
04:33They would like a quote about the nature of your relationship.
04:35Sexual.
04:36It seems like every magazine I pick up, there's a picture of you with some floozy spilling
04:42out of her blouse.
04:44Actually, Alex, in this picture, you're wearing a sweater.
04:46Oh, I'm the floozy!
04:47Oh!
04:49Yep.
04:49It's a picture of you two outside of the grocery store.
04:52Apparently, they think you're a couple.
04:54Oh.
04:55That is so funny that they think that, because I never even thought about that.
05:04Not even one time.
05:07So, like I said, they'd like a quote about the nature of the relationship.
05:10Huh.
05:11I wonder what we should say.
05:13Oh!
05:13How about, in keeping with the grocery theme, he bagged her once.
05:21No, I do not want people reading that.
05:23Okay, well, what do you want it to say?
05:25I mean, I'm fine with anything.
05:26What do you want our relationship to be?
05:29Um, I, I think, I guess I'd have to think about that.
05:35Okay, fine.
05:36Think about it and tell Gina.
05:37Say whatever you want.
05:38It's your 15 minutes of fame.
05:41Okay.
05:42I wonder if they'll call us Bennifer.
05:49Why would they do that?
05:50Our names are not Ben and Jennifer.
05:53Oh, that's what that means.
06:01Hey.
06:03Where are you going?
06:04I have a date.
06:05Hey.
06:06I'm going on a hike in the canyons with a girl.
06:10Yeah.
06:11Oh, hey, is it the big girl from Apartment 12?
06:13It, it's actually someone I met on your set today.
06:16All right, yeah.
06:17Oh, hey, is it the big girl from the prop department?
06:18It's not a big girl.
06:19Hello, Joey.
06:28You don't have to bother me at home.
06:31I'll have my lines memorized.
06:32What are you doing?
06:37That's my date.
06:37What?
06:38Allie?
06:39Abby.
06:39Don't you start.
06:40What?
06:41No, no, no, no, no, no.
06:42You can't go out with her.
06:43She is evil.
06:44How did this happen?
06:45I ran into her outside your trailer.
06:47We talked and I asked her out.
06:48Do you see what she's doing?
06:49Huh?
06:50It's not enough to make me miserable at work.
06:52So she meets my nephew, sees an opportunity to worm her way into my home and attack me from
06:58the inside.
06:58Or she just thinks I'm cool.
07:01Let's not go out of our way to make up crazy explaining stuff.
07:03Oh, we're out of our way.
07:10Hey, Gina.
07:11I'm freaking out about this Us magazine thing.
07:14Is Joey here?
07:15No, he's upstairs with his stuntman.
07:17They've been breaking fake bottles over each other's heads all day.
07:20I don't know what to say about our relationship.
07:23If I say anything about romance, then he's going to think that I have feelings for him.
07:27But then again, if I say that we're just friends, then we're going to be permanently labeled
07:31as buddies.
07:31And maybe I want him to think of us as something more than that.
07:34Maybe I should just say gal pal.
07:36Oh, no.
07:36No, kissy friend.
07:37Oh, buddy date?
07:40Alex, is that you?
07:43No, Joey.
07:44It's just me down here.
07:45I'm coming down the stairs.
07:47Tell me if I look like me.
07:48Whoa, whoa.
07:53All right, Chuck.
07:59Come on, get up.
08:00We've still got some work to do.
08:01Here, sit down.
08:01Okay.
08:02All right, now, when Joey falls, okay, he doesn't put his hands out.
08:07He lands on his head, okay?
08:10With a solid...
08:11Okay, but you can't do that.
08:15You bust your head open.
08:16No, no, no, no.
08:19You're protected by your brain.
08:20Okay?
08:23So, you want me to fall down the stairs again?
08:25Well, is it okay that I'm having to do stunts after hours?
08:28I mean, I don't want to cross a line here.
08:29Joey, you're the star of the movie.
08:30Okay, I'm here to serve you.
08:32I'll tell you if you cross the line.
08:34Okay, great.
08:34Hey, is that your thing over there?
08:36What's that?
08:40You didn't see that one coming, did you?
08:41That restaurant was great.
08:48You know, we should get some of that quinoa.
08:50Just make it ourselves.
08:51Oh, that's so cute.
08:53It's quinoa.
08:55I love that you correct me.
08:59Oh, stop.
09:00You kissed Abby, I am going to vomit.
09:02Oh, hey, Abby.
09:03Didn't see you there.
09:05Hey, Joey.
09:06I'm surprised you're not here with some skanky extra you manipulated into sleeping with you.
09:09Well, I'm not, because she left an hour ago.
09:13I'm going to use your restroom.
09:15It's just to the left right there.
09:18What are you doing?
09:19Defending myself.
09:20I really like Abby, okay?
09:22I really like her, and I'd appreciate it if you just made an effort to be nice to her, okay?
09:25But Mike, I...
09:25Come on, this is important.
09:26I'm going to go over to Alex to see if she has any wine.
09:28Just talk to her for a minute, okay?
09:30For me.
09:32All right.
09:32All right.
09:39All right, well, we both care about Michael, all right?
09:51So I guess we owe it to him to at least try and have a civilized conversation.
09:57Fair enough.
10:00What do you want to talk about?
10:02Current events.
10:03No.
10:04Art.
10:04Eh.
10:05Poetry?
10:06Ah, okay.
10:08Yeah, I wrote a poem once.
10:10There once was a man named Blinus.
10:12Oh, dear.
10:14Fine.
10:15Okay.
10:15Uh, how do you like working on the movie?
10:18It's okay.
10:18You should try it sometime.
10:20What is your problem with me?
10:22Basically, you're everything I hate.
10:23You're lazy, entitled, mindless, and you just think you're going to slide through life on
10:28your good looks and your charm.
10:29Well, I think you're an unhappy person whose only goal in life is to make everyone else
10:34as miserable as her.
10:35I think you meant to say, as miserable as she.
10:38No, I think, I think I meant to say, get the hell out of my apartment.
10:46Hey.
10:48Where's Abby?
10:48I threw her out.
10:50What?
10:50I'm sorry.
10:51I threw she out.
10:52I threw she out.
10:59Good morning, buddy.
11:04Dude, are you living here?
11:07No.
11:08I'm just sleeping here.
11:10You know, having a few meals, bringing by the occasional date.
11:13You know, it's not like I get my mail here.
11:17Who do I talk to if I get my mail here?
11:21So, I just talked to Abby.
11:23Why have you not apologized to her yet?
11:25For the last time, I am not apologizing.
11:27She stood in my home and insulted me.
11:30Okay?
11:30It'd be like if I brought home...
11:31Who's someone you hate?
11:33Dorothy Whelan, the chairwoman of our applied mathematics department.
11:36Done.
11:36I will never date her.
11:38She's not, like, super hot, is she?
11:41Joey, you don't get it, man.
11:42I met a girl who I like, and she likes me.
11:45Like, that may happen to you all the time.
11:46It doesn't happen to me.
11:47I don't want anything to screw this up.
11:49I cannot talk to that woman.
11:51All right?
11:52Now, seriously, this Dorothy Whelan, I can't get her out of my mind.
11:57Hey, Sam.
12:00Did I give you what you want in that scene yesterday?
12:02Yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:02I just came by to make sure you're comfortable.
12:05But, uh, are you okay?
12:07Yeah, it's complicated.
12:08I'm having a problem with the script supervisor.
12:11It's a personality.
12:12Don't worry about it one second.
12:14You're one of the stars of this movie.
12:15I'll talk to Abby.
12:17Yeah, yeah, you handle that.
12:18And who do I talk to about getting Cinemax in here?
12:20Okay, I've decided what I'm going to tell the magazine.
12:26What do you think?
12:27The mercurial relationship between Joey Trippiani and Alex Garrett is hard to define.
12:34However, the French have a phrase.
12:36What the hell is this?
12:38I don't know.
12:39This is impossible.
12:40Tell Joey to do it.
12:44Where's Michael?
12:46In his room, sulking.
12:47Michael!
12:48Michael!
12:49Michael!
12:50Come on, how long are you going to be mad at me?
12:53Oh, come on, quick!
12:55A physics truck just turned over outside.
12:57There's physics everywhere!
13:00I can't believe you have the nerve to talk to me after you got Abby fired.
13:04What?
13:05Yeah, she told me the director fired her because the star had a problem with her.
13:09Oh, Michael, I had no idea.
13:11Yeah, well, thanks to you, now she has no job and no income.
13:13What's she supposed to do now?
13:15Hey, she can move in Joey's trailer with me if she pay half the cable.
13:17And, and, it gets better.
13:21She broke up with me because you hate her.
13:23Thanks a lot, Joe.
13:25Michael!
13:31Thanks.
13:32Hello?
13:33Joey, what the hell is going on?
13:35You sent your stuntman to my office to sign contracts for you.
13:42What?
13:43No, no, no, I was totally there.
13:45You were drunk, screaming profanities, and your blouse was on backwards.
13:48Come on, that's a lucky guess and you know it.
13:53You know, that guy is just doing whatever you say because you're the star and he doesn't want to lose his job.
13:59Is it true that you made him cross the freeway on a skateboard?
14:06Sounds familiar.
14:08That's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
14:12You can't treat an employee like that.
14:14If you treat him with kindness and respect, they will repay you with eternal loyalty.
14:20Isn't that right, Gina?
14:21Gina?
14:23Gina?
14:26Where'd that bitch go?
14:29Hey, Chuck, thanks for leaving me here.
14:37All right, what can I do for you?
14:39Oh, no, nothing.
14:40I am here to apologize, okay?
14:42I've been abusing my power.
14:44I shouldn't ask you to do things for me just because I'm the star of the movie.
14:48Thanks.
14:49Thanks, I appreciate that.
14:50Oh, and I got you a gift, huh?
14:53Oh!
14:53Come on, let's have a drink.
14:54Hey, that's nice, but really, I can't.
14:56I've got to do that three-story jump tomorrow.
14:58Ah, come on.
14:59I can't.
15:00Come on, Chuck, the star of the movie buys you a bottle of scotch, maybe you have a drink
15:03with him.
15:05All right?
15:06Yeah?
15:06Yeah.
15:07Okay.
15:07Okay.
15:11Oh, yeah.
15:13It's good.
15:16I don't know why I ever quit drinking.
15:18Uh, what?
15:22Fifteen long years.
15:25I've missed you.
15:27Oh.
15:28Oh.
15:30Oh.
15:31Oh.
15:33Oh.
15:33Oh.
15:35Oh.
15:36Come on, Chuck.
15:37You've got to come down.
15:39This will be the highest jump I have ever done.
15:41And this will show my ex-wife that I'm not a loser.
15:45I think he's really going to jump.
15:46Man, look, we've got to do something.
15:48I'm worried.
15:48I pray to God he lands on his head.
15:51Whee!
15:55Did you just hear a gougouge?
15:57Joey, what are you doing here?
16:07Okay, look, I'm sorry it's so late.
16:09I had to take a friend to the emergency room, but he's going to be okay.
16:13That's, like, the best story I've ever heard.
16:16Can I come in?
16:17Fine.
16:19Okay, the...
16:21Hey, Jackie Chan!
16:23Man, I knew we had to have something in common, huh?
16:29Fire!
16:30Oh, look, look, I just wanted you to know, I talked to the director, and I got you your
16:39job back.
16:40I never meant for you to get fired.
16:42I'm sorry.
16:44Oh.
16:45Okay.
16:49Do you want to have a seat?
16:51Oh, sure, yeah.
16:53So, uh, are we okay now?
16:56I mean, you're back at work, so you can start dating Michael again, huh?
16:59Oh, I don't think so.
17:00I could never date a guy who lives with someone who hates me.
17:03I don't hate you.
17:04So then why do we clash so much at work?
17:06Why do we argue all the time?
17:08Why did you freak out when I went on a date with Michael?
17:10I don't...
17:11Oh, God.
17:15It's because you have feelings for me, isn't it?
17:21It's because what now?
17:22That's why you mess up all your lines, to give me a reason to talk to you.
17:30Whoa, whoa, whoa, okay.
17:31Hold on now.
17:32Okay, look, if you have feelings for me, we can work it out.
17:36But if you just hate me, then forget it.
17:38Uh, all right.
17:40Okay, if I admit that I have feelings for you, you'll go out with Michael again?
17:49I don't see why not.
17:50And that's the only explanation that makes any sense to you?
17:54Yep.
17:54Abby, I want to get with you...
18:06I knew it.
18:08Okay, look, I don't want to be getting you all hot and bothered at work,
18:12so maybe you should tell me what you find so attractive about me,
18:16and then I can try and tone it down a little.
18:21Oh.
18:24Well, I mean...
18:27I know.
18:27Uh, well, you have so many opinions, and that is hot.
18:40And, uh, and you smell...
18:44Like wet wood.
18:50It'll never happen.
18:51Oh.
18:59Hey, you're back at work.
19:01Oh, man, I'm so glad you're okay.
19:05Uh, you can put your hand down now.
19:07No, I can't.
19:09It's in a cast.
19:10Broke my arm, Joey.
19:11You gave me alcohol.
19:13I can't do the stunt now.
19:14Okay, and when they find out, I'm gonna lose my job,
19:16I'm gonna lose my health insurance.
19:18Oh, man.
19:19Oh, okay, uh...
19:21Oh, okay.
19:24Maybe you don't have to do the stunt.
19:28I gotta get out of here.
19:29This whole place is about to blow.
19:31Still rolling.
19:32Bring in the stunt, man.
19:35Okay, I'm, uh, swapping out with Chuck now.
19:43And, uh, here he comes.
19:48How's it going?
19:52I'm Chuck.
19:52How you doing?
19:54What's all this stuff for?
19:56Come on, Chuck.
19:56You know what this is.
19:57We can't light you on fire without flammable gel.

20:21All right, keep rolling.
20:22Now the mob rushes in and beats the crap out of him!
20:34Hit him harder.
20:35It's Chuck.
20:35He can take it.
20:36Hey, Alex, I got a copy of the Us magazine with our picture in it.
20:46Check it out.
20:46Oh, yeah, Gina never told me what you told them.
20:49So, what did you say that we were?
20:51Just, probably just friends or something?
20:52No, no, no.
20:53You don't want your picture in a magazine to say, Joey and friend.
20:57No, I had them refer to you as, unknown sexy companion.
21:01Oh.
21:01Okay.
21:02Okay, I'll take that.
21:04Where's the picture?
21:05Uh...
21:06Oh, no, this isn't the right picture.
21:11What, did they take this on the set?
21:13Ugh.
21:14Is that you and Michael's girlfriend?
21:17Oh, Joey.
21:19Look.
21:20I may be sexy, but I'll never be your companion.
21:25That's Dorothy Whelan's phone number.
21:29Very nice.
21:32Listen.
21:33Listener.
