Laurence, I'm sorry

to get you here so early.

Do you have the papers?

Why don't we slip

away and do it right now?

It won't take long, will it?

[ Noise ]

It's not too late

to change your mind.

[ Noise ]

Now, one together.

You do look like

a million bucks.

Now, one with your daughter.

Great. You guys are good.

I meant to tell you guys,

how the interview with Joan.

It was a wonderful

performance.

Hi.

Hi, Jake Kelly.

Of course, Mr. Kelly.

Joan Stone.

Kathryn, gorgeous.

Can I get one from the side?

Beautiful.

[ Music & Inaudible

Discussions ]

How do you know

so much about women?

I said how do you

know so much about women?

I'm not sure that I do.

Oh, what you do for--

looks like seriously.

You can't say it.

[ Music & Inaudible

Discussions ]

I've seen it a million times.

Really?

[ Music & Inaudible

Discussions ]

Buy you a drink?

Sounds good.

[ Music & Noise ]

[ Music ]

I was driving and he--

[ Pause ]

-- put his hand between my legs

and took the steering

wheel and--

[ Pause ]

-- and I saw the lights

and heard the noise.

And he--

He was dead.

[ Pause ]

He died in my arms.

[ Pause ]

That was great.

Great.

Can I try one more thing?

It was dark, I was driving.

[ Pause ]

And then he--

he put his hand between my legs.

Well, it was such a

pleasure to meet you.

Thank you so much for coming in.

I am such a fan

of your mother's.

You don't look like her.

I take it after my dad.

[ Music ]

[ Music & Inaudible Discussion ]

It was a great audition.

Bryan was there.

He practically offered

it to me on the spot.

Let's have some champagne.

I want to celebrate.

Yeah, where's Tony?

Tony, hey.

Good evening.

Can I see the wine list?

Of course.

That one.

Expensive taste

our little girl has.

It's okay.

I just came straight

from the set.

Things are going so well.

There is huge buzz

about this movie.

A small independent like that

might not set the world a light.

But it's a great start.

[ Music ]

I'm going to start

shooting in December.

So I'm signing next week.

Why now?

What?

Why now?

Because I finally got a lead?

Your film has

nothing to do with it.

Then why are you

trying to compete with me?

Darling, we're

hardly in competition.

I'm not trying to

compete with you.

You are everything to me.

I want you to be the best.

I want you to shine like a star.

[ Music ]

What movie is that from?

You're so transparent.

You want me to succeed as long

as I don't do better than you.

[ Music ]

I've had enough.

I'm going to the car.

Check, we got the check.

[ Music ]

You'll get over it.

Easy for you to say.

[ Music ]

[ Bell Ringing & Footsteps ]

Maybe I shouldn't do it.
