00:14My name is Anthony Norman. I'm 25 years old. I'm from Nashville, Tennessee.
00:25An exciting time for us because we're about to go on our big retreat.
00:27And that's what you're helping out with here.
00:35Anthony, I need to talk to you right now. Father to father. I need to talk to you. Let's go!
00:47Anthony, come up here. I'm going to talk to you myself. Have a seat, my friend.
00:54Have a seat. Make yourself comfortable.
01:02Here we go. Here we go.
01:04Okay, here we go. Camera's ready.
01:06All right, cue dug out. Cue dug out.
01:09All right, listen. I just want to say what Anthony just did for him to bust into that room and
01:16to stop that deal.
01:17I mean, that took guts.
01:18The truth is that we have actually hoped that you would bust through that room and stop that deal since
01:24the very first minute you showed up at Rockin' Grandma's.
01:27Really?
01:28I told you that this was my last company retreat.
01:32Yeah?
01:32What I didn't tell you was that it was also my first company retreat.
01:39Because I'm not actually the CEO of Rockin' Grandma's.
01:44You see, Rockin' Grandma's is not a real company.
01:49Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
01:50That is not my son over there.
01:53You're lying. You're lying.
01:55And how? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on, hold on.
01:58Anthony.
01:58Y'all about to mess my brain up.
02:00Anthony.
02:02We are all actors and this is a TV show.
02:08And the only thing that's real is you.
02:11Give him a minute, give him a minute.
02:14Take your time, baby. Take your time.
02:16You know what's crazy is I've been saying that his whole time.
02:21His whole time.
02:23We know.
02:25Every time I'm like, this date, what's going to be next?
02:28I feel like I'm living in a TV show.
02:32Oh my goodness. Y'all are incredible actors.
02:34All of y'all. Y'all are phenomenal actors.
02:37Marjorie, too? She's an actor?
02:42Yes, absolutely.
02:44Even though Rockin' Grandma's wasn't a real company,
02:47you were definitely its best employee.
02:50Yeah, I see.
02:52You showed that you had a deep affection for the family of Rockin' Grandmas.
02:58No matter what we threw at you, you kept your cool.
03:02You calmly took on the role of Captain Fun when your boss left the retreat on the very first day.
03:08Everything's good. You're going to have a great time. You're Captain Fun.
03:10You got this. You got this. I don't got this.
03:12And Dougie.
03:14Oh my God.
03:15Oh my God. You helped him every single day.
03:17He's not going to believe you.
03:19Doug, I got your back.
03:20No one believes me.
03:21I believe you.
03:22You sound like you don't believe in yourself.
03:24I do, but he doesn't.
03:25I will back you.
03:27So this really isn't your dad?
03:28That's really not my dad.
03:29Really?
03:30That's really not my dad.
03:31Really, really.
03:32That's not my dad.
03:33But what is real is the friendship that we made.
03:36You are my brother for life.
03:37So thank you for being there for Dougie and really being there for me through this whole thing.
03:41I love you, bro.
03:42Absolutely. Love you too, man.
03:44Anthony.
03:44Hold on. Hold on. Pause. Pause. Pause.
03:47Do you really like snacks?
03:48Like, is that real?
03:49Are you really going to make a PJ Snack Talk or is that all BS?
03:53Well, now I feel like I have to.
03:55Yeah.
03:58Hey, Anthony.
04:00I'm Stephanie. I'm not Helen.
04:02And.
04:04You was my favorite.
04:06You was my favorite.
04:10I have to tell you what you did for me.
04:13As an older person, you get pushed to the side a lot.
04:18You get in the last seat.
04:19You get chosen last for the games.
04:22And you didn't ever see me that way.
04:25You saw me as a person and not some older lady.
04:28And that means the world to me.
04:31And the amount of love that you gave everybody here made my heart so huge and happy.
04:37And I'm just grateful for you.
04:39And you are a fine, fine man.
04:42And don't you ever forget that, okay?
04:44Yes, ma'am.
04:53There's more.
04:56For all the hard work you've done for us, we would like to give you something.
05:01A final paycheck in the amount of $150,000.
05:11Yes!
05:13Yes!
05:15Yes!
05:16Thank you!
05:16Yes!
05:19Woo!
05:20Yeah, man.
05:21Woo!
05:23Woo!
05:24Woo!
05:25Woo!
05:25Woo!
05:34Oh.
05:34And at this point, we have special guests
05:38who would like to join us here.
05:41And if it's okay with you,
05:43we would like to introduce you to the team.
05:58Damn, where did all these people come from?
06:01Where were y'all hiding at?
06:04The amount of people that went into making this possible
06:06for me to have this experience,
06:08it seemed like people were coming out of
06:09everywhere and everything.
06:16I'm grateful for all y'all.
06:18I have questions like,
06:20how did I go from an assistant
06:23to being in a TV show?
06:27And we've got answers.
06:28Can I get one more hug from my family?
06:30Yeah!
06:43Yeah!
06:43We are scouting Oak Canyon,
06:45which will be our home for this season.
06:48In the first season of Jury Duty,
06:49we had to worry about essentially three rooms.
06:52And now we have a site that is ten times that size.
06:55It will be the basis of the retreat.
06:59Thinking about doing a yurt with a roof piece,
07:03I have some renders here.
07:05We need to build a huge amount in addition
07:07to the existing structures
07:08to allow us to cover the storylines we have planned,
07:11as well as accommodate the entire cast and hero
07:14that are staying on site throughout the shoot.
07:16It's a massive undertaking.
07:18We're building a fake world they'll all be living in.
07:37We barely know each other's real names.
07:46We don't know everybody's names, really?
07:48We barely know each other's real names.
07:50Y'all seem so close!
07:52Like, there was no prep work at all?
07:54Oh, there was.
07:55Months of rehearsal.
07:57Hi, everyone.
07:57Welcome to the next iteration of Jury Duty.
08:04202, Act 1.
08:06Waiting for Doug to arrive and start the morning meeting.
08:09Hey, guys.
08:11I'm going to make an executive call.
08:13I'm thinking we should probably wait for my dad
08:15before we get started.
08:16No one thought otherwise.
08:17People talk about how they slept.
08:30I'm Helen Schaefer.
08:31I've been here since 1999, which is 26 years.
08:34I was the first employee, Doug called.
08:38And I was surprised that people did not like the honey butter chips from Korea.
08:43I thought it'd be a hit, but, you know, we learned.
08:47And at 5 o'clock, I'm out.
08:49I'm picking up the twins from soccer and karate.
08:52On Fridays, we go to church.
08:54Amen.
08:55Uh-huh.
08:55Hallelujah.
08:56Before doing this show, I sort of had the misconception that, like, if you show up and sort of mutter
09:02some improv, you know, within earshot of a normal person, that there's a show.
09:09Quite to the contrary, this show, it involves a very precise work.
09:14We knew that our cameras were here, here, and here.
09:17You were coming in and talking to Hiro, right?
09:20Part of your job before you get into the scene is you keep talking to him, right?
09:24Right, right.
09:24Oh, that's a, yeah, yeah.
09:25So you're talking like this because now Hiro's going to talk to me this way, right?
09:30And now I'm, now we can see the Hiro, right?
09:32Your blocking has to be very precise in certain cases.
09:35It's just, I think it's just a twisty.
09:37Go to the side of your left.
09:38Just slide your left.
09:39Yes.
09:41Oh, man.
09:42It was actually more like doing a stage musical at certain points than doing an improv show, just for sheer
09:49precision.
09:50Yeah, don't do it!
09:52Go, stop.
09:53Stop the pan out of his hand.
09:55Selmer!
09:56Hey!
09:56Hi!
09:57What's going on?
09:58Oh, there it is.
10:02You can face us.
10:04Okay.
10:04That'd be a funny place to panic.
10:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:07And we can see the pan, and then we see you like this, right?
10:09You're holding on the roof going, what?
10:10Oh, my God.
10:11And then, like, trying to move, and you kind of can't move.
10:13Okay.
10:14Yeah, Jackie!
10:17Oh, God!
10:19Oh, what is my black ass doing here?
10:21Oh, my God!
10:22Yeah!
10:22Yeah!
10:22Yeah!
10:23Oh!
10:25Pull the top, pull the top.
10:26Don't break it.
10:26What?

10:40Yeah, Matt!
10:41One, two...
10:43To prepare for the battle that happens in the Doug Cappell line, Wendy, who plays Elizabeth,
10:48and I met with Charlie, who is the stunt coordinator on this.
10:52The hardest part of rehearsing for that was doing it while balancing on the inflatable cores.
10:58yeah wow whoa i don't know how you prepare for that it is really hard to stand up there
11:04this is designed to take you so i mean if you want to reach with the elbow a little bit
11:09it's natural
11:11two and the biggest part of that cell honestly was then wendy ran over to the side and got
11:17bloodied up for that reveal let me see it oh my god oh my god it's bleeding i believe
11:24it so that he didn't know that this is all just like tv magic you're trying to create the perfect

18:42other
18:42questions yeah yeah can you speak about the corrosive influence of money in politics
18:49helen's eyes are closed okay just making sure we were supposed to not laugh during seminar but i

22:11big
22:11company that they all looked alike i don't really have a dog in the fight i just wish what's best
22:18for
22:18the employees i will say that i hope we don't see a big business take over and uh turn it
22:25into
22:25something that it's not my heart's been with you even though i've i've had i've needed you to hate me
22:30but i've loved you watching how am i gonna lie you did an amazing job i still have a little
22:35bit of not
22:36really but like i still have like when i see y'all i'm like these guys get them out of
22:40here
22:42they did they did a great job acting as well it was acting because uh we're not we're not robots
22:47we actually have like souls and it felt so shitty to be mean and like to these people because you
22:52guys were so i'm shitty i'm actually mean i will say this if trucus thinks they can just come in
22:59and
22:59do whatever they feel like they want to do they're in for a rude awakening well also you might like
23:05to
23:05know that uh as they became known and boy red and girl red uh we're also writers on the show
23:12these these two yeah we got reports back you were saying stuff like man you can't write this stuff
23:17i guess you can i can't correct it
23:24duggy ran away and you were like he's got to be up that mountain really gotta be yeah who sent
23:28him this
23:30yeah i mean a part of me feels like he might have went that way just to go get like
23:35lost in
23:35nature by himself like oh yeah like up in the mountain the only place i could think is like
23:40he would cross over the river and like go be up by himself in nature like up in the mountain
23:45that
23:45makes sense that makes sense that's a good point yeah we got to find him we're like that's not part
23:50of the script yet we still got three more lines hold on like okay we gotta go this whole show
23:57is
23:57predicated in a way on a normal human being being smart enough and being curious enough to make all the
24:02connections and being able to put the plot together and everything and caring enough think about
24:08coming back maybe for like at least the last couple days just so that way you get to have this
24:12experience with us and then we get to have this experience with you man i've been telling you i think
24:16you should come back but you know if you're not ready to come back then i get that it was
