00:01You
00:24We don't reverse the tomography in the next 30 seconds, Barnaby won't stand a chance
00:28I know, Wondermath, I'm trying
00:45Change the plans, there's too many, get out of there, head to the sanctum now
00:48But what about you?
00:49I can't leave Barnaby to die
00:51But they'll kill you both
00:52I don't care
01:06The Umbera people believe if a soul fails to turn right after death
01:10It winds up in a dark and treacherous place
01:13Well, I've been to the void
01:15I've lived in that screaming silence
01:20I know what it's like
01:22I lost whatever part was left in me that makes a person, a person
01:32Until Barnaby pulled me out
01:34No one else separate gay, but
01:36Damn!
01:38It's too late for me
01:40But you can still walk away
01:42I'm begging
01:43Please, just walk away
01:45I'm begging
02:24You got this, man
02:27You already got the job
02:30You just gotta go out there and crush it
02:34Just crush it
02:36One step closer to the top
02:40Mr. Williams
02:42They're inviting you to set
02:46Copy
02:47Yep, on our way
02:48Yeah, David, go ahead
02:52Yeah, David, go ahead
02:57Yeah, David, go ahead
02:59Yeah
03:01What?
03:04Okay, who last set eyes on it?
03:06Hey, Karen
03:07Hey, Ashley
03:09Hey, isn't that for American Horror Story?
03:11Sorry, day players don't get golf carts
03:14David, where are we with that blood?
03:17Yeah, I just got to set
03:19Hey, what's the status on that mask?
03:22Oh, beautiful
03:23Talk soon
03:24How is it always Mendocino Farms?
03:27Someone on the right is through my stone stock
03:29Ugh, I hate choosing lunch when I barely had breakfast
03:31I mean, how am I supposed to know my stomach war?
03:33Personally, I would go for the smoky chicken, a lote bowl
03:36No creamer
03:37Hi, I'm Lauren
03:38You must be Professor Hoppin
03:40Yeah, I love the Castle Rock, you the record
03:42Your Sons of Anarchy episodes
03:43They were the best in the series
03:44Thanks
03:45Ashley, I'm a big fan
03:47Yeah, loved you in the Twilight series
03:49Thank you
03:49Okay, so classes just ended
03:51And Professor Hoppin's packing up his desk
03:53Okay
03:54At the end of the night
03:54And then your colleague Sarah enters from here
03:58You do the first couplet
03:59How was your trip?
04:01Yada, yada, yada
04:01And then Ashley, you cross to about here
04:04And Professor Hoppin says
04:06You do realize, according to legend
04:09That's where the Aztec god of death, Muglantilcutli, was tricked
04:12Into giving up the bones that became humanity
04:16Yeah
04:17Duh
04:18Great
04:19And then Sarah transforms into a monster
04:23And bites off Professor Hoppin's head
04:26Here
04:28Any questions?
04:29Yeah
04:30Should I switch to that a little table?
04:32Right now it's sounding pretty good
04:38Just one thing?
04:39Yeah, of course
04:42How long have Sarah and I known each other?
04:46Hmm, that's a good question
04:47What are you thinking?
04:49I was thinking we'd go pretty far back
04:50Like maybe we were best friends
04:51But we had a little falling out when she got tenure before me
04:56Sure
04:56Why not?
04:57Right, might add a little layer to the scene
05:00Totally
05:00Yeah
05:00Let's try it
05:01Yeah
05:02Great
05:02Yeah
05:03Yeah
05:05So maybe I shouldn't say Sarah
05:07What's the script says Sarah, right?
05:09What's the script says Sarah, but if I've been secretly jealous of her career
05:14I don't think I would be so friendly, I don't think I would be so friendly
05:17You know, maybe I should call her Dr. Johnson instead, you know?
05:20Yeah
05:21Yeah, let's try both ways
05:23Okay, great
05:24Cool
05:24Let's shoot one
05:26Oh, and I wouldn't let her get that far
05:29Who?
05:30Dr. Johnson
05:31Considering our history, I don't think I'd let her cross all the way to my desk
05:36I think Professor Harpin will stop her right about here
05:39Yeah
05:40Hmm, no, no, no
05:42That is interesting
05:42Uh
05:45We're already lit
05:46So I did want your dead body kind of bleeding out in this moonbeam that we have
05:52We can move the moonbeam
05:54It'll only take a few minutes
05:59If you want it
06:06Let's move the moon
06:07Yeah
06:08Yeah
06:08Move the moonbeam
06:10More, more
06:11Right there
06:13Last looks
06:17Should I be packing up a copy of Aztec Thought and Culture by Miguel Leon Padilla?
06:23Is there a problem, Simon?
06:24No, no problem
06:25I was just
06:27Just wondering if I should be packing up a copy of Aztec Thought and Culture by Miguel Leon Padilla
06:32And what is that?
06:35I'm assuming that's what I'm teaching
06:36Unless you're thinking Aztec Civilization by Henry Freeman
06:39But that kind of changes things
06:41Does it?
06:43Aztec Civilization is a quick read
06:44It barely touches on Mucantocotli
06:46It might fit into an ancient civilization syllabus
06:48But Professor Harpin is focused solely on Aztec Studies
06:53Right?
06:55Hmm
06:58Um
07:00Now there's no reference to a book
07:02Oh, but it says
07:04It says packing up his desk
07:06Right
07:07For the night
07:08Mm-hmm
07:08Mm-hmm
07:09I think it's implied
07:11Should we check with a writer?
07:13Just to be safe
07:22Who is this bozo?
07:24He had a great audition
07:26Yeah, but at this rate, we're never gonna make our day
07:29Can you get Ryan on the phone?
07:30Yes, ma'am
07:31And the interesting thing is
07:33It's all here in your words
07:34If you really look at it
07:35You think so?
07:36I do
07:37Hmm
07:37Professor Harpin's history with Professor Johnson
07:40Is what makes his death at her hands all the more tragic
07:44Honestly, I never thought of it that way
07:45But it's here
07:46Yeah
07:46In subtext
07:47Do you see that?
07:48You found something really interesting
07:49Simon
07:50Hi, Linda Cox
07:51Hey
07:51Hi, really nice to meet you
07:53I'm a big fan
07:54Oh, thank you
07:55Love all the thoughts that you're bringing
07:56Absolutely
07:56To this role
07:57Thank you, thank you
07:58Yeah, thank you
07:59Thank you
08:00The showrunner just called
08:01And he is, uh, rethinking this episode
08:03And he's worried about Professor Harpin's scenes
08:06Being a remnant of an earlier version of Ashley's arc
08:09A remnant?
08:09So he's cutting your character from the show
08:15Thank you so much for all your hard work today
08:21That's a series rough on Simon Williams
08:31They're gonna put me in the movies
08:36They're gonna make a big star out of me
08:41We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
08:46And all I gotta do is act naturally
08:51Well, I'll bet you I'm gonna be a big star
08:56Night with a monster you can't ever kill
09:02And who's gonna make me a big star
09:07Cause I can play the part so well
09:12Well, I hope you come to see me in the movies
09:18And I know that you are playing the same
09:23Biggest rule that's ever, it's a big time
09:28And all I gotta do is act naturally
09:38We'll make a scene about a man that's sad and lonely
09:43And baking down upon his bending knee
09:48I'll play the part
09:50But I won't need rehearsing
09:54All I'll have to do is act naturally
10:08What the hell?
10:16You moving up?
10:21I thought you wrapped in five
10:25So you sneaking out?
10:32I'm just trying to prevent this from becoming a thing
10:36Weren't you showing me pictures of rescue dogs last week
10:39And complaining I wouldn't commit?
10:40Yeah, I'm sorry
10:43I'm just not happy, Simon
10:44I know
10:45I just think you need to book something
10:48Things will turn around
10:50Come on, Vivian, we're good together
10:54You never let me in, Simon
10:57Not really
10:58It's a little late to start caring about this relationship
11:30It's a little late to start caring about this relationship
11:43Well, that's because Jerry wasn't there and I was
11:47I remember
11:48Yeah, it was a python
11:50A giant bloody python
11:52I don't know if it was Burmese or not, love
11:55I can't speak to that
11:57It was in the pool
11:58That's what bloody matters
12:00Because maybe it had been
12:02Somebody's pet
12:03Wasn't looking for cuddles
12:04Oh, sorry, love
12:06I can't today
12:08Auditions this afternoon
12:10Dumb writers big
12:11Biggest bloody movie of the year is all
12:13Hey, man, do you mind?
12:15Give my love to Uma
12:16Smooches
12:18I'd never talk to you in the actual film
12:20Don't fret
12:25Hey, I'm sorry
12:26Aren't you...
12:27Oh, yes
12:30I played the Mandarin
12:31But that was all bloody ten years ago
12:32And I was just a puppet
12:33And whatever theories you've seen
12:35On Reddit are totally false
12:37I had nothing to do with Pizzagate
12:38I'm not a member of the Illuminati
12:40And I did not have my hands replaced with baby hands
12:43First of all
12:45I always dug your performance as the Mandarin
12:47But I remember you from that omnibus episode you did in the 70s
12:52You played Edgar Allan Poe
12:54The Need for Nightmare
12:55Well, well, well
12:57Not too many people remember that old gem
12:59Including me
13:00How was I?
13:02Stole the episode
13:04And I should know
13:05I'm also an actor
13:05You don't say
13:07Yeah
13:08Do you mind?
13:10The movie's about to start
13:14I'll take the ten
13:15But when I take you over to see Mr. O'Daniel
13:18I'm gonna have to have another ten
13:20Just a couple of expenses, alright?
13:22Uh
13:22Come on
13:23I'll buy you a scoffee, huh?
13:34Yeah, that's what I'll do
13:37Okay, Rico?
13:38Rico?
13:42Rico?
14:11It's heartbreaking
14:14Never tired of re-watching that one
14:17It's authentic
14:19Moving
14:21Really
14:23Captures being an outsider on the fringe
14:27And it's a little trippy
14:28Which is always nice
14:31You know
14:32Schlesinger didn't even think
14:34Hoffman was right for Ratso
14:35Even though he'd just come off the graduate
14:39Apparently Hoffman convinced him
14:40By showing up dressed in rags
14:42To their first meeting on the street corner
14:44He was begging for change
14:45And Schlesinger didn't even recognize him
14:47I was fortunate enough
14:48To attend Schlesinger's production
14:50Of Timon of Athens
14:51With the Royal Shakespeare Company
14:54Sublime
14:54Pity I was blind drunk
14:58So, uh
15:00What's this?
15:02Big audition you were talking about
15:07Look, man
15:08I'm not a weirdo
15:09And I'm not
15:10Desperate
15:10I'm just curious
15:12Would love to know
15:13What you're up to
15:15Well
15:16Between you and me
15:18It's a huge opportunity
15:21I'm auditioning for Wonder Man
15:22Anyway
15:23Nice meeting you
15:24Wait
15:26Someone's actually remaking Wonder Man?
15:29Not someone
15:30Von Kovac
16:00Hey, I'm out
16:03I must be walking down the street
16:07Jeanette
16:10Did you hear about Wonder Man?
16:12You didn't tell me Von Kovac was directed?
16:15A superhero remake
16:16Not exactly what we'd expect
16:18From an Oscar-winning director
16:20Finding inspiration in another movie
16:23Is not a crime
16:25Look at what Kovac did with the flyer
16:28Silly big picture
16:29He made it
16:31Personal
16:33Grounded it in modern science
16:35And discovered new unthinkable horrors
16:41Why not Wonder Man?
16:44Human and spectacular
16:47That's where this film needs to live
16:50Superheroes are part of our lives now
16:54So, what we will find
16:56When we look at Wonder Man today
16:59What can he teach us
17:02About ourselves?
17:06Sounds good
17:07I need to be in this movie
17:10Sorry, you're crazy
17:11I was born to play this character
17:14Are you serious?
17:16Boo, they are already talking to Leo
17:18No, no
17:19Deadline said they're looking for a new face
17:21I have a new face
17:22It's too late
17:23Today was the last day of auditions
17:25Well, couldn't you work a little bit of your magic?
17:28No one can say no to you
17:30Not when you put on that charm
17:32I know you're not doing this right now
17:33Mister, I got fired from American Horror Story this morning
17:36Yeah, they told me you couldn't even lay in blood, Simon
17:39How hard is that?
17:40You just sit there
17:41You just lay
17:42Then you storm into this meeting with my colleagues
17:45Acting like you own the place
17:46And now you're trying to work me
17:48You know what?
17:48You got some nerve
17:50I just need you to believe in me, Janelle
17:53You know I believe in you
17:56I think you're one of the most talented people that I know
17:59But there's a lot of talented people out here
18:02Who are not pains in the ass
18:03Do you feel me?
18:07All right
18:08We can talk about American Horror Story first thing tomorrow morning
18:11Nandi will validate you
18:18And maybe have an early dinner so I'll be gone, okay?
18:40Hey girl, this is Imani from Hanover agency
18:43I got Janelle Jackson for Ruth
18:46She's in session, but I can have her return
18:47Oh, she's in on Wonder Man, huh?
18:50Yeah, till 6 tonight
18:53Oh no, that is not good
18:54Nandi is going to be in so much trouble
18:57Why, what's wrong?
18:59Well, Nandi is out sick
19:00You know, she got that stomach bug that's going around
19:02You better make sure you wash your hands, girl
19:04You know I do
19:06Anyway, I'm coming for her
19:08And she just texted me
19:09Because she forgot to get Simon Williams in on Wonder Man for Janelle
19:13And now, see, the session's already started
19:15And today's the last day
19:16So when Janelle finds out, she is going to go ballistic
19:20Can he still make it in?
19:21I can put him on the list
19:22Oh my God
19:23Girl, you are an angel
19:25I'm going to call him right now, okay?
19:27Thank you
19:37Hey, Simon Williams
19:39Sorry, I'm late
19:40I'm assuming you're a Wonder Man and not a Barnaby
19:43Correct
19:43I just need you to sign this NDA
19:48Also, I don't have a Doorman waiver on file for you
19:50So I'm going to need you to sign this
19:53Assuming, of course, you don't have superpowers
19:59Okay, you're all set?
20:05Come on, if I keep...
20:07I don't know
20:08I guess so
20:10I feel Barney evil
20:20No one else
20:21That's right after death
20:23I know
20:27Wait
21:08I asked Damien how things went. Oh, that's right, you can't, because he's dead.
21:14You guys are killing it in there, bro.
21:16Oh, and please tell Mr. Von Kovac that if he'd prefer a Cockney accent, I can throw one in and
21:22now it's for charge, all right?
21:25Where have you seen him before? Pretty sure he used to be a terrorist.
21:40Come with me.
21:50You're a bloody mess. You can't go in like this.
21:56What are you trying to get in my head?
21:58I'm trying to help you, love. You know, some of us actually believe in supporting each other.
22:04Take it from someone who's eaten shit on stage more times than eaten count.
22:07Not literally, mind you. You can still turn this around. It's not too late. I know. There's a lot to
22:12memorize.
22:12No, but my memory isn't the problem.
22:14So what's wrong?
22:21I can't get a hold of the character.
22:24I've seen the original too many times.
22:26And I'm trying to come up with a backstory for his relationship with Barnaby, but it's not making sense.
22:31Well, trust the words. Just show up and say them. Be present.
22:35No, that's not my process.
22:37Well, your process can go blow a spider. Do you mind? Let me see this.
22:43Oh. Oh, this is your problem. You see, these nodes are garbage. Sorry.
22:48No, it's how I learned it. It's how I make choices.
22:51Well, your choices are getting in the way.
22:53No one gives a thought about the subtext of the tales of the Invera people.
22:58We've got to get you out of your head.
23:01Then how do we do that?
23:02When you're in there, blow every last bit of air out of your lungs hard and fast.
23:06With no air any longer, your body will go into shock.
23:09Shut down your frontal lobes, so no more logic getting in the way.
23:12Then your amygdala kicks in and you'll be left with instinct.
23:15Simon Williams?
23:16Here.
23:19Don't think.
23:24I'll take it.
23:25Okay.
23:29Okay.
23:30Okay.
23:42You can slate whenever you're ready.
23:44Simon Williams.
23:46Reading for Wonder Man.
23:54Everything okay?
24:13The Invera people believe if a soul fails to turn right after death, it ends up in a dark and
24:19treacherous place.
24:27Well, I've been to the void.
24:35I lived in that screaming silence.
24:40I know what it's like.
24:46I lost whatever part was left in me that makes a person a person.
24:56Until Barnaby pulled me out.
25:00No one else ever gave a damn.
25:03No one.
25:06It's too late for me.
25:09But you can still walk away.
25:14I'm asking you nicely.
25:16Just walk away.
25:20It's a wonderful thing.
25:22Not thinking too much.
25:24Served me well most of my life.
25:26I'm not sure I'd do it again.
25:28Why not?
25:29John Gielgud used to have me whipping with a belt across his bare ass every night before curtain up,
25:34and that was before we were friends.
25:37Then things got weird.
25:38Ayashi Neat and a Virgin Mary with extra horseradish.
25:43Thirteen years sober.
25:44Congrats.
25:46But an actor needs to think.
25:50To do the work, you have to fill in the backstory, in the character's psychology.
25:55If you don't understand it, how can you perform it?
26:00When we are born, we cry that we are come to this great stage of fools.
26:06Can you live?
26:07All spotted.
26:10I had a run of it in Croydon back in the 80s.
26:13I really struggled with the role at first.
26:17Then I remembered that great speech from Hamlet.
26:19The purpose of playing is to hold us to the mirror up to nature.
26:29Never forget that.
26:31Nature, that's our job.
26:33To understand the world around us and ourselves within it.
26:40The real work isn't digging for subtext or passing a writer's intent.
26:47The real work is living.
26:55Let's probably get going.
26:57Of course.
26:58You're a young man with friends to see and important things to do.
27:02This one's on me.
27:04I think I'm going to do the wedge salad.
27:08Hey, let's keep in touch.
27:10Of course.
27:11Oh, Simon.
27:14I have a good feeling about today.
27:18Something faithful in the air.
27:44Is Trevor Slatter it?
27:47How are drinks?
27:48$15 for a Virgin Mary's bloody criminal.
27:50Trevor.
27:52Third contact was established.
27:53We don't call it third contact.
27:55He was at the matinee?
27:56Yes.
27:57And then you ran into each other at the audition?
28:00And then we had drinks.
28:02Third contact.
