shooting something,

you should at least let me know what it is.

I can't be associated with,

you know, shooting some kind of, uh,

granny porn, or some sort of...

- Like, a robot android sex film.

- No, no. Jesus, man.

I just wanna make a film.

I wanna make maybe a documentary, maybe.

- A documentary? All right. Cool.

- I think I wanna do this...

- like, a 2012 thing, you know?

- Like...

Something about what's really

going on in the world.

Also, I need a little bit more,

uh, of that weed because...

I'm starting to freak out a little

bit over here. All right, my brother.

Give me a heads-up

when you get over here, okay?

Honey?

Yes, dear?

What do you think of bougainvillea?

I'm stoked for this interview.

I don't really know him that well.

They made a good team,

after all.

Ever since they were kids, Balance

looked to Warren to supply the missions,

and Warren looked to Balance

to keep them on task.

You do the psychological,

intellectual-type thing,

and I will just capture the man's essence,

you know what I mean?

Not his essence exactly.

His aura. His persona.

As long as you just don't talk.

Can you do me a favor?

Come here.

Trying to set a mood here.

Oh, man.

And they're gonna be... And they're

gonna be here in, like, any second.

Okay.

And I... I don't want you to be here,

although...

Hi. How you doing?

Somehow, Warren had

scored his first major interview.

- Who are you doing this for, man?

- I... I've never had,

you know,

a real focus, you know?

A real, um, in my life,

and, uh...

Daniel Pinchbeck

was a best-selling author...

and one of

the leading authorities...

on Mayan and Hopi prophecies

for 2012.

I couldn't stop thinking

about it once I...

once I hit that guy.

Well, what do you know

about 2012?

Well, I know... I know

the vagueness of it.

You know, just a layman's, uh,

you know, perspective from it.

I'm not, like,

a fundamentalist about the date.

I think that we're... You know,

it's obvious that we're in,

like, a major

transformational period...

for humanity on the earth,

but it's clear that if we

don't change our behavior...

on a species level, really,

uh, you know, we're gonna hit,

like, a major disruption.

My whole thing is that we...

have a really short

period of time...

to, um, become conscious

of the situation that we're in.

You guys are professionals here.

Look at this. I can't believe this.

...our social systems.

This is, like, we're the real thing.

This is great.

You line 'em up.

Who's the next one?

Line 'em up. I'm ready to go.

I want as many people as we

can talk to as possible.

And we're really gonna...

We're gonna make a full movie.

I mean, I feel it.
