00:04Hi, I'm Andrea from Italy, from Movieplayer.it. Hello Maia, hello Joachim. Hi. Hi. Hi. So, compliments on the show.
00:14First of all, you have one of the funniest on-screen duo right now, so of course you are talented
00:21professionals and so on, but what's the trick that you use for not going out of character when dealing with
00:29such
00:29funny and over-the-top situations? I mean, I think that's what we're trying to achieve. Like, there's no greater
00:38joy than making the funny person across from you laugh, and I think that's kind of what we're, whether we're
00:46truly consciously doing it, I think that's what you hope for. Yeah. That's what you want.
00:51I don't think any of us are super inclined to breaking other than Stephanie Stiles, who we can get quite
00:59easily, but I do think that, like, that is always the goal. You've gotten me many times. It's usually coming
01:05from a place of surprise.
01:07Yes. I don't think any of us have ever really laughed at something that we've seen coming in the script,
01:13but when they allow us to improvise, I think that's when a lot of the breaking comes into play is
01:19because I never know sometimes what she's going to do or what phase she's going to make along with the
01:25line, you know, so it's always a mixture of things, but I definitely think that, like, those are the moments
01:29where we end up making each other laugh.
01:31Which is the dream. That's the dream come true.
01:35Yeah. But I imagine that when you have to deal with Maya, which is one of the greatest comedians.
01:41No, no. I say every day is like coming to work and getting a little masterclass.
01:47And I'm Italian, so you will always be my favorite Donatella Versace.
01:51Thank you. Thank you so much.
01:55So, Nicholas is going from being an assistant to someone with his own ambitions.
02:03Molly is still a thorn between chaos, generosity, and dealing with her identity.
02:11What are the biggest challenges for your characters in this scene?
02:18I think it's for Nicholas, it's a little bit like, who am I? What do I want? You know, it's
02:23like, I think he's been so wrapped up in Molly's world and and has loved it and has loved his
02:29friendship that he's developed with Molly.
02:30But I think he's been so focused on thinking about her and her needs that he's sort of neglected thinking
02:36about what he wants and what his needs are.
02:38And so for him this season, it's really about finding that balance of being able to maintain the friendship part
02:44of his relationship with Molly, but also taking some space back and considering, like, what he actually wants and what
02:50his goals are.
02:51I think Molly's really getting a chance to explore what it's like to be in a healthy relationship this season.
02:58And so you see a really sort of, you know, natural, vulnerable side to her that I think is really
03:09lovely to see.
03:10And I think in sort of when she stops protesting this relationship and really allows herself to enjoy her life
03:17and admits that, you know, to the whole group, I think she lets everyone in.
03:23And I think it's sort of, we were kind of saying this the other day, but like, it's sort of
03:27the group's collective joy too, because I think everyone has been in such support of it and obviously wants to
03:33see her in a better place.
03:35So, um, there's a nice, there's just a nice level of trying to take things as they come and trying
03:43to enjoy the good things that she has.
03:47So, Maya, my last question is for you, uh, in 2006, could you ever imagine that 20 years later, the
03:54world might feel a bit like idiocracy and what aspects of loot do you see as a commentary on, on
04:01that kind of future?
04:03Um, no, this happened way too fast.
04:06I think, uh, we were laughing hysterically making idiocracy thinking that wouldn't this be hilarious, you know, that the stupidest
04:16people in the world were in charge and, uh, you know, the president used to be in the world wrestling
04:21federation and, um, it's really dark and it's really not cute or funny at all.
04:28And, uh, I actually watched the film fairly recently just cause, um, um, somebody, um, a good friend of mine
04:38had never seen it and we were watching it and it was sad.
04:40It was actually really depressing and I don't think, um, Mike judge anticipated how quickly this would become a reality.
04:50So it's really fucking depressing.
04:52What was the question?
04:53And how does our show like comment on this?
04:56Well, I mean, the, the great thing about comedy is being able to comment on things happening in the world
05:02and parody is such a fun way to explore, to talk about, or even to suggest, you know, wealth and
05:08the idea of philanthropy and response, responsibility and what you can do, uh, with your wealth.
05:17Um, so I do feel like it is an endless, just a display of opportunities of things to comment on.
05:26And I think comedy is a great way to do it because you're able to talk about it in a,
05:30in a, in a fun way and see the ridiculousness and point out the ridiculousness without taking yourself too seriously.
05:37Well, and especially in American culture, I think wealth has been seen in pop culture as like sort of the
05:43best thing that can happen to you.
05:44And the, the greatest accomplishment you could ever have is to become wealthy in our country.
05:49And I think our show really says, you know, there's actually a lot of other things that come before that.
05:56And a lot of other things that make you a good person that you should want and desire beyond just
06:00money.
06:01And it's not, it's not, you know, um, and the responsibility I think of, uh, the, the people who do
06:07have that amount of money.
06:08So, um, yeah, that's a good point.
06:11Thank you guys.
06:12And compliments once again, thank you.
06:13Thank you.
