05:28What you took up, I know.
05:36This is intense.
05:43Ooh.
05:45One pair of shoes. That's weird.
05:47How so?
05:48If it's the shoes off-house,
05:50there'd be a whole line of shoes.
05:52If it's the shoes on-house,
05:54there'd be none.
05:56But one pair of shoes.
05:59What does that mean?
06:00Someone forgot their shoes.
06:02What? No. Trevor, this is a test.
06:06Von Kovac is judging us
06:07based on every little thing that we do or say.
06:09So? Let's not give him any strange energy to pick up on.
06:12We both have a lot riding on this, Simon.
06:14Why would you say that?
06:16Try your box breathing.
06:21Come on. Let's both stay loose and relaxed.
06:23What? No. You know I can't do either one of those things.
06:28Come in.
06:29Mr. Kovac will meet you in the living room.
06:32Amazing!
06:37Is she wearing shoes?
06:38Oh, God damn it.
06:55Oh, shit, he's seeing us all at the same time.
06:59That's a bit offside.
07:00Everybody's wearing shoes.
07:02They probably all slept last night.
07:03Hey, Manuel Maria Jose de los Remedios.
07:07Simon Woods.
07:09Yeah, yeah.

07:16So you all here for the callback?
07:18Mm-hmm.
07:18Claro.
07:19I studied at Juilliard, mostly done theater.
07:22But I just wrapped up a Chris Nolan project.
07:25Yeah, no formal training for me.
07:27I'm a student of life.
07:28Also, uh, I'm Paul Thomas Anderson, surfing instructor.
07:32And, uh, yeah, one day he was like,
07:33you should be in my movie.
07:35Turns out, uh, I'm a natural.
07:37Phone hasn't stopped ringing.
07:39Sounds like a pretty rough journey.
07:41No, it wasn't.
07:43No, I was being sarcastic.
07:45Oh, cool.
07:46I'm not really into comedy.
07:48Hello, everyone.
07:51Thanks so much for coming to my little retreat.
07:55I call it my prison of opulence.
07:59I wanted a home that represented everything
08:02I both love and detest about Hollywood all at once.
08:09Yeah, yeah, I can see that.
08:12Follow me.
08:24Oh, Juilliard.
08:27We're gonna get one side of this point,
08:28and there's another type of game somewhere else.
08:31Oh, there's another type of game somewhere else.
08:33It's not a game somewhere else.
08:33It's not a game somewhere else.
08:35I can't get to a bonus.
08:36I can't believe it.
08:43This is where I've been living with the project.
08:47It's been taking shape in my head.
08:51I wanted to bring you all inside my brain
08:55so we can explore it together.
08:59Holiness, hey, but this is me.
09:03Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
09:04Oh, you seem to have snuck into my subconscious, huh?
09:09So the Spaniard pulls ahead.
09:15This is the song for the start of the picture.
09:24Can you see where I'm in space?
09:32All alone.
09:35It's cold.
09:37What is this strange haunting song?
09:41You're getting closer to an alien planet.
09:45Closer, closer, closer, closer.
09:53Wait!
09:55This is no alien planet.
09:58Let's surf.

20:56Oh, it's you.
20:58You're damn right it's me.
21:00You think you can hide from me, you little shit?
21:07All right, that's enough.
21:09Is it?
21:12You weirdo.
21:14Everyone knows your secret.
21:15You're not fooling anyone.
21:19That's not true.
21:21We know.
21:24We've all been talking about it behind your back.
21:27Hey, Richard.
21:28The dumbass friend can't help you, Simon.
21:30No one can.
21:32Please.
21:35Stop.
21:36You're a freak.

21:43Simon.
21:44Oh, my God.
21:46Oh, my God.
21:47Oh, my God.
21:51Oh, my God.
21:51Oh, my God.
21:54Oh, my God.
21:56Oh, my God.
21:57Oh, my God.
21:59Oh, my God.
22:01Oh, my God.
22:03Oh, my God.
22:03Oh, my God.
22:03Oh, my God.
22:05Oh, my God.
22:06Oh, my God.
22:09Oh, my God.
22:09Well, how have we been boring you?
22:17I think I need a minute.
22:26Geez.
22:27Didn't realize he was such a fragile thing.
22:30Hey.
22:49Are you okay?
22:51No, Trevor, I'm not.
22:58It's not too late to turn this around.
23:00Yes, it is.
23:05I can't take this anymore.
23:10Too tired.
23:14And Von Kovac keeps pushing.
23:20He wants to see who we really are underneath.
23:26But I can't show my underneath.
23:29I can't share the real me.
23:32The real me will get kicked out of here.
23:34I'll never be able to act again.
23:36That's not true.
23:39The real you isn't your condition.
23:42The real you...
23:45is the sum of everything you've experienced.
23:49The loss, the joy.
23:53Sadness, heartbreak.
23:56Losing someone you love so much.
24:01Wanting something so bad that you could burst.
24:04Hurting someone you care about.
24:08Being hurt by those you love.
24:14That's your life.
24:18That's who you are.
24:22Mirror up to nature.
24:24That's our job.
24:29When we share.
24:32Our pain, our grief, our joy.
24:35The audience, less alone in theirs.
24:40We're all less alone.
25:05We only get one shot at this, Barnaby.
25:09It's not the time for games and riddles.
25:11I agree.
25:13It's too late already.
25:16It's what I've been trying to tell you.
25:18I can't accept that.
25:21I can't give up on this planet, these people.
25:24What you can or can't accept...
25:28no longer matters.
25:29That's not true.
25:31If we worked together...
25:33We were never together.
25:36Come on, that's bullshit.
25:40But...
25:43Put the gun down.
25:46He found my price, Wonder Man.
25:50Everybody has one.
25:52I just pray you never have to learn yours.
25:55Okay, you're not thinking straight.
25:59He's gotten it to your head.
26:00You're better than this, Barnaby.
26:01Believe what you want to leave.
26:04General Boulard has your coordinates.
26:06He's coming for you.
26:07You're not making it out of here alive.
26:10I'm never going to give up.
26:13I don't care about the cost.
26:17Then it's your funeral.
26:18I don't think...
26:28I don't care about it anymore.
26:28I don't know.
26:28I don't know.
26:32I don't care about it.
