00:01The End
00:24We don't reverse the tomography in the next 30 seconds. Barnaby won't stand a chance
00:28I know one's math. I'm trying
00:45Change the plans there's too many get out of there head to the sanctum now. What about you? I can't
00:50leave Barnaby to die
00:51But they'll kill you both. I don't care
01:06The Umbera people believe if a soul fails to turn right after death it winds up in a dark and
01:11treacherous place
01:13Well, I've been to the void. I've lived in that screaming silence
01:20I know what it's like. I lost whatever part was left in me that makes a person a person
01:32Until Barnaby pulled me out no one else separate gay, but damn
01:38It's too late for me, but you can still walk away. I'm begging please just walk away
02:24You got this man
02:27You got this man
02:28You 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
02:46Copy
02:46Yep, on our way
02:48Yeah, David, go ahead
02:51Uh
02:55Stay just in the bar
02:57Yeah, David, go ahead
02:59Yeah
03:00Yeah
03:00Yeah
03:02What?
03:04Okay, who last had eyes on it?
03:06Hey Kieran
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
03:29I hate choosing lunch when I barely had breakfast
03:31I mean, how am I supposed to know my stomach?
03:33Who are?
03:33Personally, I would go for the smoky chicken or Lotte bowl
03:36No Kramer
03:37Hi, I'm Lauren
03:38You must be Professor Hoppin
03:40Yeah, I love the Castle Rock you directly
03:42Oh
03:42Your Sons of Anarchy episodes
03:43They were the best in the series
03:44Thanks
03:45Ashley, I'm a big fan
03:46Yeah, loved you in the Twilight series
03:49Thank you
03:49Absolutely
03:50Okay, 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?
04:01Yadda yadda yadda
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
04:11Muglantilcutli 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
04:22Um
04:23And bites off Professor Hoppin's head
04:27Yeah
04:28Any questions?
04:29Yeah
04:30Mm
04:30Should I switch to that a little table?
04:32Right now it's sounding pretty good
04:34He he he he
04:38Just one thing?
04:39Yeah, of course
04:43How long have Sarah and I known each other?
04:46Hmm, that's a good question
04:47W-what are you thinking?
04:48I was thinking we'd go pretty far back
04:50Like maybe we were best friends
04:51But we had a little falling out
04:53When she got tenure before me
04:56Sure
04:56Why not?
04:58Right, 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
05:05So
05:06So maybe I shouldn't say Sarah, right?
05:08Uh
05:09What's that?
05:10Well the script says Sarah but
05:11Uh huh
05:12If I've been secretly jealous of her career
05:14I don't think I would be so friendly
05:16You know, maybe I should call her
05:18Dr. Johnson instead, you know?
05:20Yeah, let's try both ways
05:23Okay, great
05:24Cool
05:24Let's shoot one
05:26Oh, and
05:27Hmm
05:27I wouldn't let her get that far
05:29Who?
05:30Dr. Johnson
05:31Considering our history
05:32I don't think I'd let her cross all the way to my desk
05:36I think Professor Harpin would stop her right about here
05:39Yeah
05:40Hmm, no, no, no
05:42That is interesting
05:42Uh
05:45Yeah
05:45We're already lit
05:46So I
05:47I did want your dead body kind of bleeding out in this moonbeam that we have
05:52Uh, we can move the moonbeam
05:54Uh, it'll only take a few minutes
05:59If you want it
06:06Let's move the moon
06:07Yeah
06:08Yeah
06:08Move with 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
06:33And what is that?
06:34I'm assuming that's what I'm teaching
06:36Unless you're thinking Aztec Civilization by Henry Freeman, but that kind of changes things
06:41Does it?
06:42Aztec Civilization is a quick read
06:44It barely touches on Mucantocotli
06:46It might fit into an ancient civilization syllabus, but
06:49Uh, Professor Harpin is focused solely on Aztec studies
06:53Right?
06:56Hmm
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
07:09I 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
07:28Hmm
07:29Can you get Ryan on the phone?
07:30Yes, ma'am
07:31And the interesting thing is, it's all here in your words, if you really look at it
07:35You think so?
07:36I do
07:37Hmm
07:38Professor Harpin's history with Professor Johnson is 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, I'm a big fan
07:54Oh, thank you
07:55Love all the thoughts that you're bringing to this role
07:57Absolutely
07:57Thank you, thank you
07:58Yeah, thank you
07:59Thank you
08:00We're just called
08:01And he is, uh, rethinking this episode
08:03And he's worried about Professor Harpin's scenes being 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 thinks gonna make me a big star
09:07Cause I can play the part so well
09:12Well, I hope you come see me in the movies
09:18Then I know that you are plain to see
09:23The biggest fool that's ever hit the 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 spindly
09:48I'll play the part, but I won't need rehearsing
09:54All I'll have to do is act naturally
10:08What the hell?
10:17You moving up?
10:21I thought you wrapped in five
10:25So you're sneaking out
10:32I'm just trying to prevent this from becoming a thing
10:36Why don't you show me pictures of rescue dogs last week
10:39And complaining I wasn't committing?
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
11:43Well, that's because Jerry wasn't there and I was, I 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
12:00Maybe it had been
12:02Somebody's pet
12:03Wasn't looking for cuddles
12:05Oh, sorry, love, I can't today
12:08Auditions this afternoon
12:10Damn right it's big
12:11Biggest bloody movie of the year is all
12:13Hey, man, do you mind?
12:15Give my love to Uma
12:17Smooches
12:19I'd never talk to you in the actual film
12:21Don't fret
12:25Hey, I'm sorry, um, aren't you, um
12:27Oh, yes
12:30I played the Mandarin, but that was a bloody ten years ago
12:32And I was just a puppet
12:33And whatever theories you've seen on 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, I 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, The Need for Nightmare
12:55Well, well, well
12:57Not too many people remember that old gem, including me
13:00How was I?
13:02Stole the episode
13:04And I should know, I'm also an actor
13:05You don't say?
13:07Yeah, yeah, yeah
13:07Do you mind?
13:10The movie's about to start
13:14I'll take the ten, please
13:16But when I take you over to see Mr. O'Daniel
13:18I'm gonna have to have another ten, just a couple of expenses, alright?
13:22Uh, come on
13:23I'll buy you school after you, huh?
13:34Yeah, that's what I'll do
13:37Okay, Rico?
13:40Rico?
13:42Tumor
13:42Tumor
13:42Tumor
13:42Tumor
13:42Tumor
13:43Tumor
14:10Tumorospace
14:11It's heartbreaking.
14:14Never tired of re-watching that one.
14:17It's authentic.
14:19Moving.
14:22Really captures being an outsider on the fringe.
14:27And it's a little trippy, which is always nice.
14:31You know, Schlesinger didn't even think Hoffman was right for Ratso,
14:35even though he'd just come off the graduate.
14:39Apparently, Hoffman convinced him by showing up dressed in rags
14:42to their first meeting on the street corner.
14:44He was begging for change, and Schlesinger didn't even recognize him.
14:47I was fortunate enough to attend Schlesinger's production of Time and of Athens
14:51with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Sublime.
14:55Pity I was blind drunk.
14:58So, uh, what's this?
15:02Big audition you were talking about.
15:07Look, man, I'm not a weirdo, and I'm not desperate.
15:10I'm just curious.
15:12Would love to know what you're up to.
15:15Well, uh, between you and me,
15:18it's a huge opportunity.
15:21I'm auditioning for Wonder Man.
15:23Anyway, nice meeting you.
15:25Wait, uh,
15:27someone's actually remaking Wonder Man?
15:29Not someone.
15:31Von Kovec.
15:49Hey, I'm out.
15:53I'm out.
15:54Lucky was a walkin' down the street
15:57Lookin' fine as she could be
16:01Hey, hey
16:04Lucky was a walkin' down the street
16:07Jeanette!
16:10Did you hear about Wonder Man?
16:12You didn't tell me Von Kovec was directed?
16:15A superhero remake.
16:16Not exactly what we'd expect from an Oscar-winning director.
16:19Ah, finding inspiration in another movie
16:23is not a crime.
16:25Look at what Kovec did with the flyer.
16:28Silly B picture.
16:30He made it personal,
16:33grounded it in modern science,
16:36and 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
17:01about ourselves?
17:06Sounds good.
17:07I need to be in this movie.
17:10Sorry, you crazy.
17:12I was born to play this character.
17:14Are you serious?
17:16Boo, they are already talkin' to Leo.
17:18No, no.
17:19Deadline said they're lookin' for a new face.
17:21I have a new face.
17:22Mm-mm.
17:23It'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 doin' this right now.
17:34Mister, I got fired
17:35from American Horror Story this morning.
17:36Yeah, they told me
17:37you 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
17:44with my colleagues,
17:45acting like you own the place,
17:47and now you tryin' 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
17:58that 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
18:10first thing tomorrow morning.
18:12Nandi will validate you.
18:18And maybe have an early dinner,
18:19so I'll be gone, okay?
18:20Mm-hmm.
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.
18:48She's in on Wonder Man, huh?
18:50Yeah, till 6 tonight.
18:53Oh, no, that is not good.
18:55Nandi is gonna be in so much trouble.
18:58Why?
18:58What's wrong?
18:59Well, Nandi is out sick.
19:00You know, she got that stomach bug that's going around.
19:03You better make sure you wash your hands, girl.
19:05You know I do.
19:07Anyway, I'm coming for her,
19:08and she just texted me
19:09because she forgot to get Simon Williams in
19:11on Wonder Man for Janelle.
19:14And now, see, the session's already started,
19:15and today's the last day.
19:17So when Janelle finds out,
19:18she is going to go ballistic.
19:20Can you still make it in?
19:21I can put him on the list.
19:22Oh, my God.
19:24Girl, you are an angel.
19:25I'm gonna call him right now, okay?
19:37Hey, Simon Williams.
19:39Sorry, I'm late.
19:40I'm assuming you're a Wonder Man and not a Barnaby?
19:43Correct.
19:44I just need you to sign this NDA.
19:47Also, I don't have a doorman waiver on file for you,
19:50so I'm gonna need you to sign this.
19:53Assuming, of course, you don't have superpowers.
19:59Okay, you're all set?
20:06Come on, if I keep...
20:07I guess so.
20:10I guess so.
20:17I guess so.
20:26I guess so.
20:31I don't know what you're doing.
21:08I asked Damien how things went.
21:10Oh, 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?
21:27Pretty sure he used to be a terrorist.
21:40Come with me.
21:50You're a bloody mess.
21:52You can't go in like this.
21:56You're trying to get in my head.
21:59I'm trying to help you, love.
22:00You know, some of us actually believe in supporting each other.
22:03Take it from someone who's eaten shit on stage more times than eating count.
22:07Not literally, mind you.
22:08You can still turn this around.
22:09It's not too late.
22:10I know.
22:11There's a lot to memorize.
22:12No, but my memory isn't the problem.
22:14So what's wrong?
22:21I can't get hold of the character.
22:24I've seen the original too many times.
22:26And I'm trying to come up with a back story for his relationship with Barnaby, but it's not making sense.
22:31Well, trust the words.
22:32Just show up and say them.
22:33Be present.
22:35No, that's not my process.
22:37Well, your process can go blow a spider.
22:39Do you mind?
22:39Let me see this.
22:43Oh.
22:45Oh, this is your problem.
22:46You see, these nodes are garbage.
22:47Sorry.
22:48No, it's how I learned it.
22:49It'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.
23:07With no air in your lungs, 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.
23:42You 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
24:19and treacherous place.
24:25Well,
24:29I've been to the void.
24:35I lived in that scream in silence.
24:40I know what it's like.
24:46I lost whatever part was left in me that makes
24:50a person
24:51a person
24:52a 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
25:15nicely
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 Gilgood
25:30used to have me
25:31whipping with a belt
25:32across his bare ass
25:33every night before curtain up
25:34and that was before we were friends.
25:37Then things got weird.
25:39Ayashi Neat
25:40and a Virgin Mary
25:41with extra horseradish.
25:43Thirteen years sober.
25:44Congrats.
25:45But
25:46an actor
25:48needs to think
25:50to do the work.
25:51You have to fill in the backstory
25:53and the character's psychology.
25:55If you don't understand it,
25:56how can you perform it?
25:59When we are born,
26:01we cry that we are come to this
26:03great stage of fools.
26:05Can you live?
26:07We'll spot it.
26:10I had a run of it in Croydon
26:11back in the 80s.
26:13I really struggled with her all at first.
26:16Then
26:17I remembered that great speech
26:19from Hamlet.
26:20The purpose of playing
26:24is
26:24to hold us to the mirror
26:27up to nature.
26:29Never forget that.
26:31Nature, that's our job.
