00:00from your international odyssey never have i ever in all of the episodes of ever ism
00:06seeing you so angry this season you talking about coming in hot yeah yeah for you because it's going
00:14into the finale the turn up it is warranted but is this where you wanted him to be well uh
00:20i wanted
00:21well i wanted i want him to arc i didn't know where where was going to arc it to i'm
00:26just as
00:26an actor i like for characters to grow and move in some sort of direction and so with this i
00:31mean
00:31marvin don't want to be upset he he wanted he would like to just kind of live life and stay
00:36fly and build
00:37with his daughter but these circumstances put marvin in a situation where he got to respond to
00:41him like marvin's not going around causing stuff he is finishing it though and so with this one
00:45marvin just standing on business that's all he's doing not letting them slide ever since fall out
00:49with him and gerald from the therapy class that turned marvin back into something else because
00:54marvin's trying to be cool and bad trust people but after he's like man he got crossed by the
00:59feds and that whole talk marvin ain't taking he don't trust nobody everybody gotta go i think what's
01:03dope about you as an actor and this character art bill you watched him be supportive all right sis i
01:09got you yeah all right you watched him be the rock all right i'll carry everybody at this point
01:14yeah cool and never once in every single season were you like the person who pushed the button and
01:20you're right everybody would like push your button you're like okay now when i snap right it's a wrap
01:25it's a wrap are you satisfied are you is this a full meal for you this i just think that
01:34as an actor you always try to make these characters as whole as you can make you try to show
01:38different
01:39facets of them so they become real people so i just think that with this season marvin is just
01:45i think this is a side uh barman that the audience will want to see that they haven't seen
01:50but you know because he's been kind of cool i mean he he handles business before but this time i
01:56think
01:57the audience is even though he's going out taking vengeance i feel like the audience is going to be
02:01right with him to do it because sometimes season one they were just like man just writing them off
02:05barman was irresponsible and he was missing all the cues but i think this season is one of those things
02:11where it's like a guy walking through the town and it's like a guy walking through the town and
02:19as he's walking towards whatever the situation is start off with five people then 10 you look up you
02:24got a whole i feel like the community is behind marvin this season so we'll see what happens man
