- Hi. Sorry. Um.

Hello?

- Hi.

- Hi. Um.

I'm sorry, I can't

quite see you there.

Do you, um, do you

have a light or...

Hi. Yeah. I'm Emma.

Um,

Hi, uh, sorry.

Um, we at Therapals

really apologise

for that message you received.

Patient privacy is...

- Emma.

- ...so important

to us, and I'm...

- It's fine, it's just an f up.

I totally get it.

You're, you're completely fine.

- You're the best.

Um. One second.

Sorry.

- So, Emma,

why don't you tell me a

little bit more about Arthur

with antisocial tendencies?

Is that what it is?

- Uh, you know, I...

I really can't say.

- You can say.

Independent?

What, is our guy a free thinker?

- You know, it's just a

confidentiality thing.

- Emma, confidentiality is over

the second that message

ended up on my screen.

Emma, want to answer me or

just keep texting other people?

- Great question, Leigh, I...

- Emma. Leigh?

Emma. You know my

personal information now?

Are you going to

leak mine next, Emma?

- I'm really sorry.

- What is your full name?

- Emma Mallory.

- Emma Mallory.

Good. Now let's have some fun.

Let's send some texts

to our friend Arthur.

What is your plan

with the neighbour?

- Put him in my closet, LOL?

Make him listen to me.

- Ask Arthur, do you spend

a lot of time online?

You're so clear over text.

What do you say?

- I dunno. Yeah. Haha.

- Online your tongue

can't get in your way.

Ask him if he has

anything sharp.

I don't know, I have

kitchen scissors, LOL.

- Tell Arthur to

stick out his tongue.

- Okay, my hands

are shaking, LOL.

- Grab it tight.

And cut.

- Frick! I'm not okay.

It's kind of hanging.

Help me!

It's off.

I'm not okay, LOL,

help me, Emma!

Not okay?

- Why did you do this,

Emma Mallory?

My full name?

- You got me!

- I'm fired! Oh my God!

AJ?

Can you hear me?

Are we done?

Uh.

- I guess, um.

AJ?

- So how was I?

How do you think I did?

- Well, I'm already

getting Oscar buzz.

- Great, I can hear the

sarcasm through the screen.

A real actor thinks I sucked.

Wonderful. Thank you for that.

- No, Teddy, I, I

thought you were great.

Really.

- Right there, no, see

right there, I can tell.

I'm just trying to get better.

Any feedback...

- Teddy, I thought

you were good, it's...

one tip.

- Yeah.

- If you want to keep

the script on screen,

don't, you know, don't keep

looking in the corner like...

it just gives everything away.

- Did you see me do it?

How did you know

I was doing that?

Do you do that too?

- Sorry, sorry, okay, I'm here,

Can you guys hear me?

Hello? Testing.

Margot, Theodore.

Sorry, okay, Zoom era.

Um, no, no, that's fine.

Um. But no, I mean, okay.

First scene.

That was phenomenal.

Um, Theodore,

how are you feeling?

- Uh, just Teddy, uh,

but good.

Um, alright, I thought I

kind of sucked, but, I mean,

if you felt good about it, I

mean, it's whatever.

- First off, Teddy, like,

literally just hearing

the words that I wrote on a

page come to life through you,

that's like...

And Margot, I mean,

what can you even say, right?

- Oh, thanks.

- And I did actually want to say

that maybe you forgot a line

back on page three.

I wasn't sure if that

was intentional, or...

- Oh. No, I actually,

I don't forget lines.

I just improv.

- Oh, fun, improv.

No, no, I would

actually really prefer

if we stuck to the

script going forward,

but no, no, I mean,

that's, that's great,

that's great.

- Boss, do you have any,

uh, any feedback for me?

And I just, I honest...

honest feedback.

Anything I could

be working on or?

You all right?

Or if you need a second,

feel free to take it.

- Uh, forget about it.

My house is a

little bit haunted.

Um, a couple of

ghosts in the house.

Um, no, no, it's not, but no, I

actually did maybe want to ask

about the little knife that

I saw you were playing with.

- Was that...

- Oh!

The knife? Yeah, all right,

well, I thought this

would be a good add.

I grabbed it right

for that last take.

It was my grandfather's,

and it started off as

like a big butcher knife

and they just used

it over the years.

It's kind of turning this

little rinky-dink kind of thing.

I thought it was kind of scary,

a little bit like, eek, eek,

I don't know, something

stupid like that,

but I thought it would

add to the character,

you know, a little, a little

Teddy flair to lay it, perhaps.

But if you don't like it,

we can scratch the idea,

I just wanted to

play around with it.

- I do maybe wish that you

brought it up with

me beforehand.

Family stuff a little touchy.

I am an orphan myself, so...

- I am so sorry.

I really... I had no idea.

My apologies.

- And it's fine,

you didn't know.

You didn't know.

- I would never... I'm so...

- And you didn't know.

And by the way,

it is Leigh, not Lei

- Oh!

- Leigh, Leigh.

- Okay. All right. Leigh,

Leigh, noted, okay, thank you.

- Sorry, I... not to interrupt.

I have a hard out in five or so.

If we could...

If you could wrap this up.

- Okay, well,

let's call it then.

Have a great night.

- Oh, uh,

AJ, AJ, how do I end

the screen share?

- Oh, yeah.

Um, okay.

Let me just, um, do...

Boom. Okay.

Screen share is ended.

Thanks so much for everything.

- Anything else?

Feel free to reach out.

- No, no, I really

appreciate you both.

- All right. Have a great night.

- Bye.

- Bye.

- All right. Thanks again.

- Bye.

- Okay, bye.

Press webcam.

And. All right.

Hello to our Emma.

And there's our Leigh.

Great.

Alrighty. So how are we feeling?

Mmm-hmm.

Yeah, yeah.

I get it, I get.

And let me stop you right there.

You were doing excellent.

Just stick to the script.

Get out of your head and

everything will be okay.

All right?

Mhm.

Totally. And it's

no problem at all.

I really appreciate you.

Um. Well, I love you so much.

Have a great night.

We'll talk soon.

Okay. Love you.

Bye. Love you, love you.

All right.

Bye.

Alrighty. So how are we feeling?

Um. Pretty good.

Uh, with reservations,

obviously.

I mean, you know, you know,

Leigh, he was kind of, like,

a little tight, right?

And Emma, was there

maybe an attitude?

I... I...don't wanna...

- Let me stop you right there.

You were doing excellent.

Just stick to the script.

Get out of your head and

everything will be okay.

All right?

- You're so right.

And you're so right.

Hey, sorry, one sec.

- Totally, and it's

no problem at all.

I really appreciate you.

Um. Well, I love you so much.

Have a great night.

We'll talk soon.

Okay. Love you.

- I really love you, too.

- Bye, love you.

- Love you.

- Love you.

- All right.

- Love you.

- All right.

- Okay.

- Okay. Hey there, champ.

Do you just want to

quickly ask if you could maybe

keep it down on the noise thing?

Sorry. Yeah, and...

look, our Emma and our Leigh,

they're good, but they're

really not clicking.

So maybe let's start

brainstorming edits

for the next draft.

And if you make good time on it,

maybe I can let you have

the TV in here, right?

You know, you can

watch some Abbott.

Mm? Maybe some of The Bear.

You like The Bear?

Okay, then, well, have

a great night, champ,

you're doing just some

excellent work in there.

Thanks.

Here's the day in the

life of an LA director.

First, wake up

with a bit of Java

before playing with my

best freakin' friend.

Then I jump into some meetings

before I hit the store,

AKA hit some traffic.

Freakin' love this

place and more traffic.

Then I hit the

beach with some pals

and returned to my second home,

the empty page.

Yeah, I'm a bit of a dork.

Then I work on characters

and call it a night.

Here's the day in the

life of an LA director.

First, here's the day in

the life of an LA director.

And we're being shadow banned.

Now, that's...

That's awesome.

an LA director.

All right, well, I guess we

should introduce this, um...

One more?

I guess we should,

I don't know, introduce this.

One more?

Hey, there.

Uh, thank you all for watching.

Um, welcome to m...

Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey.

Out out out out out.

Well, hey, um, guess I should

introduce this, you guys.

Um, I'm AJ Wilby, and

this is making content.

A peek behind the curtain

of the making of our

feature film, Content.

Now, I want to give

you an uncut look

at the process of directing,

I'm going to blur out what

I don't have the rights to,

but besides that, this

is all absolutely real.

I don't like that.

Do you like that?

I only have two

rules for directing.

Number one, have fun.

Most people like to save

have fun as their last rule,

as a fun little joke

on things, which is...

so my.... I say it first.

Um, and that's,

that's how I do it.

And then number two,

do whatever it takes,

no matter who gets in your way.

Do anything for your actors.

Anything.

While being kind, right?

You know, choose kindness.

I, I always say that.

And it's kind of a

rule of three for me.

Um, kindness.

Okay.

All right, so,

act one of course,

we introduce our leads.

Now.

Margot, of course,

is a former child actor.

You know, modern family,

smarter than a fifth grader.

Um, apparently she almost

booked the kid sister part

in Hunger Games.

Um, almost.

And then, you know, she did

take a break for college.

So her IMDb lately, it's

Margot herself, you know,

is a bit irony pilled, maybe,

but Emma Mallory, her character,

she's this, like,

strong yet kind of shy,

but kind of, like,

really real, you know,

like final girl type,

uh, I would say only-child,

maybe former gifted kid.

And that's kinda...

Well.

LGBTQ plus

Single. We can work with that.

We can work with that.

- Teddy Nielsen,

Phoenix, Arizona.

six foot auditioning

for the role of reporter

one through three.

- Okay, I guess on to

Teddy, Theodore, uh.

- Sir. Question.

Thank you.

Thanks for your consideration.

Once again, it's Teddy Nielsen,

uh, six foot Phoenix, Arizona.

Thank you.

- Teddy, um, you know, a bit

of a up and coming actor,

um, stars in the eyes.

Um, not LA-based and

a bit flyover statey.

Um, his character Leigh, you

know, he's all about, like,

manipulation and violence

and, honestly, trauma.

I moved to Los

Angeles with nothing.

No connections, no parents

with Wikipedia pages.

I'm an orphan,

but what I did do is go to the

Netflix building every night,

and I would slash my own tyre.

Then I'd wait for

a suit to walk by

and go, hey, buddy, wait.

I'm so sorry, but would

you mind helping out?

And you know where that got me?

Netflix's top floor.

Mhm.

First, wake up

with a bit of J...

- Che method, part 12.

Che method, part 12.

I tell this to all my actors.

You don't know sh*t

about your character.

You know nothing.

Your scene partner does.

Do not commit to your character.

Commit to theirs.

Make your f*cking movie.

No excuses.

Let's f*cking go.

- Teddy.

Say what?

Come on.

- Oh God.

- In a way, religions were kind

of the first movies because,

you know, you go to the

theatre and you watch it

and you have the, the priest

or the rabbi, you know,

kind of, kind of as the actor.

And I don't care if your

God is Star Wars or Jesus,

um, you know, the

life or death stakes,

every movie has that.

Every movie can have that.

In a way...

- You want to know

how I got these scars?

My father was a

drinker and a fiend.

He suffered!

He suffered for you!

He f*cking loved you!

He suffered!

He suffered!

- Be radically cringe.

If you're an actor, you

should f*cking hate yourself.

Embrace your f*cking cringe.

Che out!

Be rad...

- It smells good.

- Yeah, yeah.

New recipe.

I just looked it up.

- Oh yeah?

- Mhm.

- Uh, you got a sec?

Can you take a break and

do your laundry real quick?

- I don't think that's

my stuff dude.

I did my stuff last week.

- Well, it's this week

and this is your laundry.

Um, I... no, that's

your shirt, dude.

That's your stuff.

- Oh, yeah, yeah,

I forgot, that's mine.

I just... my bad.

Uh, but in the future, though,

this is like our shared space.

- Mmm-hmm.

- We've got one kitchen.

- You're using it.

- Yeah, no, I'm...

- Hey, AJ, how are you?

- Hey.

- Oh, no, what's...

what's wrong, baby?

- What's wrong baby?

- Wow.

Sorry I asked.

Come on, just talk to me.

- I mean, Emma and Leigh,

they

have been way off script lately

and the online discourse,

it's... it's insane.

- I mean...

- AJ...

- I don't even...

- What do we say

about negativity?

Feeling frustration?

Totally natural,

but getting angry?

That's a choice.

- I know, I know.

Oh, sorry, guys,

I'm in a session.

Other door please.

- I am... I'm so sorry.

I'm genuinely sorry.

- No.

Really, I'm the sorry one.

- And again, that's

just my two cents.

I'm just, just trying

to help out here.

Just trying to help.

- Listen, I just feel like

when you say that you're sorry,

you're, like, out-sorrying me

or I'm not sorry enough and...

- That's not my intent.

Hey, AJ,

sorry to bother you.

We've been hearing a lot of

noise from your room lately

at night time.

And just strange things

going on over here.

- Um, weird,

No, I mean, I'm

such an introvert.

I try and keep it down, I...

- Okay, yeah, I mean, we just

don't want a noise complaint.

- Totally. Totally. Totally.

- Let's go.

- Okay.

- I don't wanna fight with you.

- I know we're going.

- Hey, champ.

Um, I think we need

to have a talk.

Um, this podcast that

we're, that we're doing,

that you're listening

to right now.

This could be IP.

This could be a

cinematic universe.

Hey.

Hello, Mr Bunce.

Hey, thanks for, thanks so much.

Can you hear me okay?

- Yeah. No, I can hear

you great, thank you.

You can...

You can hear me as well, right?

- Totally. Totally.

No. How are you doing?

Have you been watching

anything lately?

Oh, yeah.

Um.

Oh, uh, Game of Thrones.

Uh, I've heard that's good.

- And I did, though

want to grab you

to talk about the Che messages

that you're sending to Teddy.

They're... They're good,

they're solid.

I just kind of think

you need to push him

a little bit further, you know?

- Uh, but you, you

gave me the script.

Well, I mean,

let's not assign blame here.

- Um, yeah, no.

I just, I'm, I'm worried that

Teddy thinks

Goldberg.

that I am Che Goldberg.

- Oh, sorry, I'm so sorry,

I should have clarified.

Teddy is, like, super method.

He's like a live the

role kind of guy.

You know, he wanted

this, actually.

- All right then.

Yeah, sure.

I mean...

- No, no, you're all good.

Well, great.

Thanks so much.

All right. we'll

circle back soon, then.

Okay. Well.

- Oh!

- I really couldn't say,

it's, um, it's a

confidentiality thing.

- But you already violated

his confidentiality.

Hey, cut, cut.

Sorry, sorry.

Oh, sorry.

That was really,

really excellent.

I think we might need

to grab one more.

Just go back to the

start of the line

and we'll take it

from there, okay?

- I really couldn't say,

it's, uh, it's

confidentiality thing.

- Sorry. But you...

- Cut, cut.

Oh my God.

Sorry. There was so much better.

And I still feel like we're

60 to 65% of the way there.

So, Margot, I think if you can

maybe just bring it up a bit.

- Yeah, um...

- Mr. Director,

do you just want me

doing the same thing?

- Yeah.

It...Teddy, you're,

you're... I don't want...

I don't want to

get in your head.

You're excellent.

Um, so just keep

keep on keeping on,

and we'll... and we'll do

maybe 1 or 2 more, okay?

- It's a confidentiality thing.

- That ship sailed, right?

Cut for a sec.

Um. Um.

Margot, um, are you feeling

good about that one?

- Um.

No. Uh, yeah,

let's do it again.

Yeah, no, that'd be great.

Let's... let's do that.

And Margot, Margot, Margot...

do... let's... let's just

do it again now, okay?

While we still have that energy.

- Great.

I really couldn't say.

Um,

it's a confidentiality thing.

- Okay, you know what I think?

Let's take a quick five.

Let me join in here,

I think we...

yeah, um.

Hey, so all good.

So, uh.

Sorry. Mar...Margot

Are we...

Are we done?

I wasn't... what was it.

- Hey, uh, Mr. Director,

I was, so I kind of

brainstormed some

Lei Dorrin Instagram

material and...

- Uh, uh, Leigh Doerne.

Leigh Doerne Instagram

material, yeah.

So... so I'm thinking he's like

he's a dark and,

like, twisted guy.

So I have him following

factories, junkyards,

things like that.

Does that kind of work out?

- Oh yeah, no, totally.

And Margot, have you had any

headway making socials for Emma?

- Sorry. Um, I meant to.

I got caught up.

- No problem at all.

Doing what?

- Um.

Sorry, I just.

Busy week, you know.

- Busy, busy with?

So I was kind of thinking, guys,

as an exercise, we have

you to try do a conversation

as Emma and Leigh, you

know, like, in character.

- Yeah, absolutely, let's do it.

- Like live the role.

And so, I mean, just to start

with some like icebreakers.

Um, okay.

Emma, what's your biggest

regret and, and why?

- No,

thanks, um,

Uh, sorry.

Uh, but, uh, living it,

the whole the method thing,

it's just really not for me,

but, but don't let

me stop you guys.

Uh, you two ladies have fun.

- Margot, I hear you,

and I really, really

respect your process.

Don't want to get

in the way of that.

But Emma and Leigh, right,

they're in this

twisted relationship,

I was kind of just thinking

the two of you should at least,

like, know each other, right?

What if I put you

in a breakout room?

Just the two of you,

talk it out,

I'll even Venmo you

the rehearsal fee.

Is that cool?

- So, wait.

Venmo, what, are you guys

getting paid for this,

or should I give...

- Whoa. Funny seeing you here.

All right, let's, uh,

let's get into this.

Give me...give me,

like, a second.

All right, Emma,

let's play a game of two

truths and a lie, huh?

- Sorry, sorry, um...

- What?

- Do we have to do this?

Can't we just, um,

I don't know, uh,

talk to me like a person.

- Like non-character.

- Where are you?

No, no no, no.

Like, where are you right now?

Like the Valley, West Hollywood?

- I'm...I'm in, um,

Phoenix right now.

I'm situated in Phoenix.

That's home base for me.

- Arizona. Very nice.

- Um, why are you doing this?

- I thought the getting

to know you might be nice.

- No, I mean Content itself.

You're the Margot Sholnick,

why are you doing this?

- I'm not a dude.

- Well, but you enjoy

acting, though, right?

The whole method thing that

AJ is trying to get us to do,

it seems kind of cool.

I mean, becoming Leigh,

I'm kind of into it,

trying it out.

- Listen, um, I don't

want to be a d*ck about it

with AJ and all, but it's...

living the role,

it's, it's...that's not real.

It was made up by publicists

to make actors seem

more mysterious and aloof.

And, uh, the general public are

imbeciles, and they believe it.

Not to yuck your yum, but.

Sorry, um...

- What was that?

- You all right? Or...

you can take a break.

Margot?

Margot?

Are you okay?

- I feel really bad.

This is all my fault.

- We don't do faults, do we?

- No.

- If you need to take a minute,

maybe we can cut or...

- Who is that?

- ...just...

- I don't know.

- Can they hear us?

- Hello?

- No. Sorry, I don't.

- Is everything all right?

- Oh, they can't.

- I don't even

know what that was.

- What is this?

- Do you ever feel like

somebody's following you?

- Hello?

- Okay. Can you...

- Just around?

- No.

- Okay. They can't see us.

- Not really, no.

- I'm listening.

- Never mind, um.

- Do you need me

to call someone?

- It's okay.

- I can call someone

if you need me to.

- I'm good.

- Do you want the chair?

- No, I don't want the chair.

- What were we talking about?

- What is this?

- Um.

- It was...

- Content, right?

- Oh, it's a show.

It's like one of those Hulu.

- It's...

- Yeah, Content is

a good pay cheque.

You know, but after this,

uh, I think I'm done acting.

This...

- Done?

- Eventually, I want to

create my own content.

- Oh, that's super cool.

Why? That's the coolest thing...

- Teddy, you're the only person

in the world that thinks that.

- I'm telling you...

- There is nothing more cringe

- than wanting to create...

- This feels very intrusive.

- ...your own art.

- Absolutely not.

- It's like, I don't think

- You're insane.

- We should be watching

- No, no, no.

- My actual advice

- a private conversation.

- if you want to move here is...

- They can't see us.

- Okay.

What was that?

- It sounded like it

came from the closet.

- Well, go check it out.

- ...Straight to YouTube.

- I've seen it before.

It doesn't end well.

- That doesn't sound like...

- Maybe, well maybe...

a couple of jackets falling.

- Maybe it'll make it to Toovie.

- No. Can you just look?

- Just, like, totally, maybe.

- So are you saying, like,

I should quit Content then,

or what's the underlying

message you're trying to.

- I'd appreciate it if

you used the other door.

- No, I'm not saying

you should quit.

I'm saying....

I'm saying that you should....

- What was that?

- Yeah, I'm just doing a

director exercise thing.

- No, the closet.

I mean, we heard

something in there.

Oh.

Weird. Um, wish I could

say more, but indeed.

- Let's just go.

- Yeah.

Hey sorry.

- AJ.

- Um.

- Sam.

- One sec, okay?

Listen, I know that you're

really stressed out right now,

and, you know, you're

working on your little movie

and you've got a lot going on.

So if you need to talk to

anyone or you need anything,

please, just, you know,

we're around.

Thanks.

Thanks very much.

- Our door's always open, okay?

Thank you.

- Sam, come on.

- Just knock though.

Appreciate it.

All right, baby.

Recording.

Standing close

To the edge of the water

From where I stand

The view's different

Painting myself

White, blue specks

Now the wind's picking up

And I just want

some peace of mind

Run, run, run, run,

run with your ghost

I'm so sick of changing

I wanna be alone

- Hold up, hold up. Sam.

- Wait, I was just

in the middle of...

- I'm...

I got a text.

- What? From?

- The landlord.

- Yeah.

- What the f*ck?

I...I don't know.

How would they find out

about Pepper?

- I don't know.

- It doesn't make

any sense at all.

Sam!

- Hey, champ, uh,

We have a couple new

updates for the script,

so I just wanted to clue you

in here a little bit, um,

- Hey, uh, you must be, um, uh,

Florence from Writely, right?

Hi, yeah.

- Yeah, um, aunt

Flo's in town, huh?

- Um, yeah.

- You know, uh, just

come on back here.

- What's up, what's up,

what's up?

It's Che, back again,

looks good.

I'm here in New York,

you know,

final week before I

touch back into LA.

- I can't tell what

this movie is about.

Like, it has zero like,

framing in the trailer.

It has nothing.

No, I'm excited for it.

- This is Margot...

Sholnick, uh, for

my agent, Luanne.

In a meeting, I know, but could

you take a message for me?

Great, uh, yeah.

So I am moving towards

getting into directing.

So next in the lit world,

uh, that's gonna be.

That's gonna be great.

Mmm-hmm, thank you, bye.

Have we talked c**ts?

Yes, c**ts, I'm so excited.

I love Che's past work.

Looks like he's at

the top of his game.

Che is already,

for lack of a better term,

popping off.

- Hey, Teddy.

Hey, How are ya?

- Hey. Mr. Director

Hey, how's it going, man?

- Really well, yeah,

how are you?

Out on the road, huh?

- Just hitting it.

Trying to get to Cali

as fast as possible.

- First taste of

that LA traffic, huh?

- Yeah, just...

Yeah, just....

Just got to Courtside,

and it's, uh.

I wanted to ask you something,

if that's all right.

- Oh, um, yeah, sh**t.

- I mean, Lei is just...

- Leigh.

- ... is just this

sadistic, cruel,

like a joke of a character,

almost, and I just...

I don't know if I'm gonna

be able to do that for you.

I just, I wanted to call.

- Teddy?

- Yeah.

- Tessy, you need to

get out of your head

because you are a

phenomenal actor.

Any director would

be lucky to have you.

- I appreciate that, boss.

- Watch out for

that traffic, huh?

- Yeah, all right,

sounds good, sounds good.

I'll see you when I get there.

- Of course.

- All right.

- All right.

- Talk soon, bye.

- Yeah.

- Hey, horror

with a bit of a social

commentary kind of thing.

Sorry, could we

maybe put that away?

Um, just a bit of discretion.

Kind of keep the ghost in

in ghost writer, you know?

Oh, yeah. I'm sorry.

No, no.

Love your samples.

You have such, like, an

authentic voice, you know?

Thanks. I'm trying.

- Uh, so before we go further,

I do have an NDA for you.

Sorry. It's just...

- No, no, I get it.

Actually, I have a surgeon

coming up to get my lips sealed.

- That's funny.

I have a little workstation for

you, you know, just back here.

I mean, look.

Ooh!

You know, I thought

this was a pitch session

because, you know,

I usually work remotely.

- I really totally get that.

It's just that, you know,

it's so much easier to

bounce ideas in person.

Uh-huh.

- I can double your rate.

- Hey.

- Hello, hello.

- Wow. Good to see you, man.

- Of course!

- Mr. Director.

- In the flesh!

Mr. Leigh Doerne

Welcome to L.A..

- Or should I grab

anything out of..?

- And that's why I found

another Therapally.

- What are you talking about?

- I hope you enjoy

your treatment.

- I thought we were exclusive,

Emma Mallory!

Whatever she's paying you.

It doesn't matter.

I can just... Hey, that's

a little bit too rough!

Just...I'm just telling you.

Oh! Oh my gosh!

Ow! ow!

Ow! Ow!

- Hey!

Ow!

- All right, so, um,

how are we feeling on that one?

Pretty... pretty good or...

Margot?

Oh, yeah?

How are you doing?

- Teddy? Are you okay?

Did you... did you

actually hit him, AJ?

- Margot, I would

appreciate if you shared...

- What the f*ck

is wrong with you?

...if you shared any

critiques via email...

- Guys!

- ...instead of...

- Can we?

- ...on set.

- Can we do another take?

- Wait, sorry, what?

- Can we do another take?

W...would you be able to hit me

with the bat again

on the next take?

Yeah.

- It was just I was so scared

and I felt like

for a little bit, I...

...lost Teddy

and found Leigh.

- Okay, I'm totally ready to go

if you're ready

to go, like Margot,

are you, are you good?

Are you good to go for another?

Do you need, like, a

little crafty five or, um,

should we keep her going?

Margot?

We....?

Margot?

- Margot?

Here's your bat.

- Hey.

- Hi!

- Yeah. What's going on?

- Uh, I, uh, just about

finished the first draft, so.

- Oh, that's, that's,

that's totally...

- Hey!

I...I'm sorry, but

do NDAs mean nothing?

I'm sorry, I was

recording a TikTok.

Give me my phone back, please.

Okay, then I'm gonna take

your face ID.

- No.

- Okay?

Just show me your face.

All right, all right.

Okay.

- Oh, sh*t!

Ah!

f*ck!

- Hi, AJ, I have

a story for you.

So you're on Jimmy Fallon

and you're being interviewed

and you are k*lling it.

Jimmy is laughing.

He is eating up your anecdotes.

He is slapping his knee.

And then what's this?

He's, he's slapping your knee,

and then he leaves

his hand on your knee,

and he looks you in the

eyes and he tells you, "AJ,

you are the greatest director

I have ever interviewed."

And then wait, who's...

Jimmy Kimmel?

And he says, "AJ, do

you maybe want to,

I don't know, host

the Oscars with me.

And you say, "Oh, I mean, I

that's a big stage, you know.

But I would consider it."

And the audience, they're

loving it and they are saying,

"AJ Wilby, we love you."

And you're like, "Oh, stop.

I mean, if you want to take

photos or selfies, that's fine."

But the important point

is that they love you, AJ,

and I love you and I will

never stop loving you.

Hey. Hey.

Sorry. Sorry.

Hey, um, I'm in a session.

I'm in a session.

Can you go around?

Thank you.

- No, you literally said, let me

know when you get home safe,

so I'm going to let you

know I get home safe.

No, I'm gonna keep it...

No, you said literally let me

know when you get home safe.

Yeah, no Margs...

Margs...

- Margs?

- No, it's not Teddy,

it's Leigh.

Yes!

Just until the end.

How about that?

Yes, yes.

Yeah. Okay,

I'll let you know.

All right, yeah. Bye bye.

Bye.

- So, Marg's?

- Mr. Director.

- Dude, how the

hell are you, man?

Dude. Your tweet, uh,

so funny, so good.

- Yeah.

- Um,

it's just really so meta,

but, like, in this ironic...

If Deadpool meant, like, um,

- Yeah, totally,

um, so, wait, who

are you on with?

Who was, um...

- Margs, that was Margot.

Margot, sorry,

uh, we were thinking about maybe

getting some dinner tonight.

Maybe hanging out a

little bit, and, uh.

- Wait, so, sorry,

like, you and Margot.

Is there a little...

Something there?

- No, no, no.

Um. She's, uh...

No, she's...uh,

g*y? She's g*y.

- Well, but Emma is

a straight character.

Right?

- Okay.

- And did... sorry,

did she maybe mention

rejoining Content or..?

- We talked a little

bit about that.

Um, honestly, man,

I just think it's gonna take her

a little bit of time.

On that topic,

I did want to discuss

with you my involvement,

just relating to...

- Okay.

- You know, don't worry

about it right now.

Uh, while the sun's still out

I did want to check

out the neighbourhood,

- get a lay of the land.

- Yeah.

- Did you want to come

along at all or...

- No.

- All right, I'll be quick.

I'll let you know.

- Be safe, man, okay?

- All right, take it easy.

- All right.

- Bye.

- Hey.

Hey!

Okay.

Hey!

Hey, buddy.

- Stop, stop, okay.

AJ?

- You passed the test.

Congrats, man.

Here, give me that.

Okay. You did great.

All right, come with me, Teddy.

Come on.

Hey, Teddy,

what are your thoughts on

found footage film history?

Now, of course, we have

our early masterpieces.

You know, our Man Bites Dog,

our McPherson tape,

our et cetera, et cetera.

You know, Cannibal Holocaust.

I mean, come on.

But the first truly

modern masterpiece

is The Blair Witch Project.

You know,

a bit of bread and butter,

but what people don't

often talk about

is Heather Donahue's

performance.

Let's take a look, okay?

Okay, so, Teddy, as you can see,

the actors, they were

really scared, you know,

so what the directors did,

they left them out in the woods

with no contact with anyone.

- Why were you watching me?

- Not like I was literally

in the middle of talking.

Come on, man, kind of rude.

So as I was saying,

the directors,

after they finished

filming Blair Witch,

they had the actors hide out.

You know, they had

them go missing.

So to the world, at

least, the movie was real.

You know, people

really thought...

- I gotta go pee, man.

Can I go pee?

- Teddy, I'm doing

this for you, okay?

Not for you.

For Leigh Doerne.

All right, just stick with me.

Let's. You know what?

Let's watch the first major

laptop movie, Unfriended.

I, I think you might

enjoy it, okay? Come on.

So the cool thing here, like,

during the middle of scenes,

the director would poke

the actors and, like,

keep them spontaneous

and scared.

And, like, during Silence

of the Lambs, you know,

Hopkins, he would make

fun of Foster's accent

and, like, you can authentically

feel like sh*t if you're like...

- Sorry, sorry, I'm here.

I'm...

If...

Look, AJ, this methoding thing,

it's just...it's not

making sense to me, man.

We've been watching these

videos for hours now,

and it's just, I thought it was

funny accents during interviews

or pranking each

other on set,

or trying to pull from

your own life experiences.

And then, I mean,

you've manipulated me,

you've lied to me,

you've hurt me,

you've injured me.

And I greatly appreciate

all those times I really do.

But I just I'm not getting it.

I don't feel like

I've been methoding

and I just need some direction.

- Teddy, I don't know

if I've told you this,

but I'm actually an orphan.

And when I was six years young,

my mother, she pushed my

father down the stairs.

And then she threw

herself down after.

And I was the one who found him.

That was actually really

kind of awkward for me.

But the thing is, I don't

let my boring personal life

get in the way of my content.

If you push Teddy deep, deep

down where no one can find him,

that's how you can

get to Leigh, right?

Right, man.

And now on to

Unfriended 2 Dark Web.

Here we go.

And like the thing

about Creep 2,

you know, is that it's

like a total inversion.

- So I was wondering.

- Yeah.

- What are these?

- Oh, the...

Yeah, the pink one.

I mean, cards on the table,

I use it to hurt people.

And the blue one,

it puts you to sleep, so.

No.

Oh, wait.

Teddy, what's, what's up man?

- No, not Teddy, Lei!

I'm Lei.

- Leigh, right?

-Leigh, I did I not

just say Leigh?

That's what I just said.

- Totally, man, tota...

What, what do you want?

- How long have you watching me?

- Hey, um, I really...

- How long have you

been listening to me?

- Dude, dude, dude, dude.

Dude, dude, dude, dude.

Dude, dude, dude,

dude, stop! Hey!

Hey, hey, hey.

It was for the movie.

It was for the movie, okay!

- Actually, actually,

I should be thanking you.

AJ Wilby, without

what you did to Teddy,

You wouldn't have found me.

- Okay.

- I know why you used

the Che Goldberg account.

God!

Teddy was such a dumbass.

- Okay.

- Watch this.

- I don't even have a

patient named Jason,

so I don't know what

you're talking about.

- You can't lie to

me anymore, okay?

I know things about you, Sarah.

I know where you live.

- Um, I really think we should

move forward with this session

and kind of really...

- 175 Seneca Avenue, 175.

I never crossed the line.

I'm just doing what

you did to me, huh?

- What happens in my sessions

are completely confidential.

- It's Content.

- I don't really follow.

- What we just watched, AJ.

It's literally content

I can understand the

manipulation and the spying,

but stealing ideas?

Stealing ideas, AJ.

I might have to take

your tongue for that.

- Hey, hey!

- Hold out your tongue!

Che Goldberg and I were

in film school together.

Che Goldberg and I, we were

in film school together, okay?

And we were put in a room,

and we became friends,

and we became best friends, and,

and I shared my idea

for it with him.

I shared my idea for Content,

and he stole it.

And I was really angry, too.

I was really angry.

But then I realised that

feeling frustrated is natural

but getting angry,

that's a choice.

And you got to choose

kindness instead, right?

- Well...

- I am being so silly.

I can't be Leigh without Emma.

- Yeah, um...

- I'm gonna help

her live the role.

- Okay.

- Hang tight, hang tight, AJ.

- Wait, wait.

Leigh?

- Yeah.

- Hey, Siobhan.

How are we doing today?

- Hi, yeah, can

you hear me okay?

- It, it is insane how well

I can hear you, actually.

- Great.

Well, I thought we'd go

down my general rundown.

You know, go over

characters and...

Mr. Wilby.

Can I ask,

why did you hire a

diversity consultant?

- Well, great question,

and honestly, for me, you know,

cultural authenticity,

it's kind of like a big

virtue for me, really,

my middle name in some ways

- Oh, really?

Um, so you didn't hire her

as some sort of

edgelord-type prank?

- I'm sorry?

You might be confused.

I'm actually,

I'm strongly left-leaning.

- Really?

Okay, then I...

I guess I am confused.

Uh, you see, our team

saw your socials,

the whole I'm a

villain bit, you know?

Well, we were expecting

something else.

- Gotcha, gotcha.

Um.

Yeah.

- I...Mr. Wilby, I,

I can't consult here.

- Because the script

is perfect already?

That's, like, really

too kind of you to say.

- Funny. No.

It's actually pretty empty.

Hollow even.

- Well.

- Look, if you have nothing to

say about society or sexuality

politics, that's fine.

- Siobhan, I hear you,

but I might add that there is

diversity behind the camera.

- You're clearly using

a progressive exterior

to mask some sort of

ironic self-promotion.

- No, now, well, well, now.

Allegory.

- Allegory?

- So some people,

not, not me,

some people have

said that Content

allegorically, is a q*eer story.

And, and, and, and, and then

that's other people's words.

- Really?

- No, that's other

people's words.

- I've never...

- Well, Siobhan, you know,

funny you asked that,

um, because I think that...

f*ck.

- Mr...Mr. Wilby.

- For the...

for the movie.

This is for the movie, bye.

- Oh my God, what's wrong?

What's wrong?

Oh my God.

- We gotta call someone.

- What happened?

- Cut!

-What happened?

Um, yeah.

Can we get, like, one more?

Maybe just a little bit

more scared on that one?

- Is this a movie?

Uh, yeah,

it's a little kind of

horror social commentary thing.

- I don't wanna be on camera!

- Come on.

- Yeah, it's...

Oh, sorry about that, guys.

Um, Florence, um, do you maybe

want to come back with me

and we can kind of

talk about things?

Hey, hey, hey.

Florence. Florence.

Florence. Hey.

Hey. Um.

Florence. Hey, hey, hey.

Um, Florence, uh, you

want to maybe let me in?

Um,

look, I know every

creative partnership

has its difficulties, but,

I think we can really

work through this.

And you'll still get

credit on the movie.

No, I mean, in

memoriam credit,

but I think IMDb has

a space for that.

You know, maybe a

special thanks to.

Okay.

- Hey!

- Sorry! Oh my God, I'm sorry!

Oh my God.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry.

Sorry

sorry, sorry.

Oh f*ck!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Oh my God.

Oh my God!

Oh!

Oh!

- AJ! Dude, you gotta pay my

reps tomorrow or they'll...

Hey, AJ, it's Javon.

Law enforcement

will be contacted

if you don't pay our

invoice immediately.

Thanks.

- No. No, Papa.

No, no, it's for rent, Papa.

And so what if

it's for my movie?

So what if... no, I know.

No. You have.

No, I appreciate it.

Thank you.

No. I love you both.

Don't put mother on.

Don't put mother on.

Hey. Hope you're

enjoying making Content.

Be sure to rate review,

Letterboxd, IMDb.

You know, as long as

you're positive, right?

No one's really nice anymore.

What's, um.

You know, what's that about?

I know things look a bit iffy.

This isn't about me

or Teddy or Margot.

It's about Emma and Leigh.

And they are right

where they need to be.

- Day in the life of

a serial unaliver.

Stalking the neighbourhood.

Pointy. More stalking.

Shopping time.

Bleach. Party supplies.

Quality time with my girlfriend.

Mmm. Coffee.

Making her happy

is so important to me.

I will do anything to protect

her no matter the cost.

Living my best life.

- So in a way, you sort of have

to let the actor direct himself.

And scene.

Um, yeah, Leigh,

we were actually just

filming something here.

Leigh. Leigh, wait, wait.

We were filming something.

We were filming

something, Leigh,

it's, um. Teddy, Leigh?

Hey, baby.

No. Come on, don't cry.

We... we can,

we can recast.

We can find new

actors, you know?

Exactly.

Because if you

believe in yourself,

you can do anything.

All right. Love you.

Hi.

I just wanted to

reach out and say

I'm sorry I betrayed your trust.

I know it was for the movie,

but that's not more important

than our friendship.

I've sent you a Zoom

link for tonight

to discuss the terms of

me buying you out of your

contract for Content.

I just really want to see

you tonight and tell you

I'm sorry.

All right.

Talk to you, then, I hope.

- AJ?

- Hey.

- Why are you here?

- Sorry, go on.

- No. You go.

- Great. So, did AJ

invite you to this?

Wait, are you still

living at AJ's, Teddy?

- It would appear so.

- Teddy. Come on.

- I'd prefer it if

you called me Leigh.

- Right, um.

Who are you?

- Oh, no, it's Teddy!

Man, how the heck are you?

- What are you doing here?

- Who am I looking at?

- I... I saw you at the park.

- Yes you did.

And AJ told me the

scene went well, right?

- It doesn't.

- Oh, sorry.

No, um, you're doing the whole

method acting thing, aren't you?

It's, uh, it's Leigh,

Leigh, right?

- Oh, no, that doesn't that

doesn't make any sense, um.

- Hey, hi, hey, wait.

So you guys, all you guys

all work for the same idiots?

- Sorry. Same idiots?

- Sorry, same idiots,

did I stutter?

The podcast,

I'm just being the podcast.

- You're Che Goldberg, right?

I know you, you're Che Goldberg.

Yeah. You stole AJ's idea.

You stole Content.

- What the f*ck?

Who is AJ?

Huh? Wait, are you guys

the Cinemidiots podcast?

- No. You know, AJ.

- The publicist told me this

was the Cinemidiots podcast.

Who am I talking to right now?

- AJ Wilby.

You went to school with AJ

and then you stole his idea.

That's... now you're here, I...

- AJ?

AJ.

Oh, like AJ Wilby

- AJ Wilby, yeah.

- From f*cking school.

- I had one class with that

kid when I was a freshman.

He just, like, talked to

himself the whole time.

Didn't help at all.

Wait, you know that guy and

he told you I was his friend?

- Is this a setup, or are

you playing a game with us

right now, AJ?

- You knew him back then?

- Who are you?

- Well, Mr. Director?

- Why am I in here right now?.

- Hey, y'all.

Who wants to make a movie?

- Okay. Um.

Peace. It is good

to meet you guys.

Uh, talk to you later, bye.

- Uh, Mr Goldberg.

Um, you might want to

check your cloud folder.

The one where you've been

storing your feature C-words.

No? Uh, mm.

Um, any of y'all watching

anything lately or..?

- AJ, why are all these

people in this call AJ?

- Yo, where is my movie?

Where the f*ck did

you put my movie?

What happened?

uh, tut, tut, tut, tut.

- AJ? Okay, where did it go?

- Stick with me, and we're gonna

make our own movie tonight.

A horror movie

starring all of you.

If you could please

look outside your doors,

you'll find a box.

- You found my address?

Wilby, what is this?

How do you know where I live?

- I'm on an unpaid internship.

I'm not, I don't have

the time for any of this.

Come on.

Now, please, everyone,

open up the lid

and scan the code underneath.

Here's how I'm blackmailing

Margot Sholnick into

making content.

I just had to find

Margot's ex, Nomi,

and give Margot a chance

to reconnect with her.

So you'll see that right now,

Nomi is actually in

a bit of a pickle.

Margot, if you don't

wrap your scenes in time,

then poor Nomi

won't do too well.

Good luck.

- AJ.

- Here's how I'm

blackmailing Teddy Nielsen

into making Content.

Teddy was the only actor

to really understand

the AJ method and

find his character.

Your job is simple.

Stay in character

and that footage is

performance video of Leigh

instead of evidence

against Teddy.

Good luck!

- Hey AJ.

- Here's how I'm blackmailing

Che Goldberg into

making Content.

You stole my movie idea.

I hacked your iCloud, and

I'll delete your movie

if you don't play along.

Good luck.

Here's how I'm

blackmailing Pat Bunce

- Don't f*ck with

my movie, please.

I could give you f*cking

producer credit or EP.

Whatever you need.

- I need to resign

as an intern, please.

Oh my God.

Alrighty, team, please take the

glass dropper out of your box

and use it to glue your

phone to your hand,

or we'll k*ll you off.

Oh, God, so, sorry,

so, like, if you die,

that means I do have to go

forward with your blackmail,

which is kind of not ideal.

So you might wanna, you know.

Great. Now just join via

that same zoom link and...

Yep. All right.

There's one.

Come on.

All right guys.

Yeah. There we go.

Thank, okay, okay.

Game plan for y'all.

I'm gonna give you a series

of Saw-esque challenges.

You know, you're gonna get

hurt or k*lled off one by one.

And then the final two survivors

will fight to the death.

Um. Any questions?

Emma, Leigh?

Mm?

- Understood.

- So for your first challenge,

I'm going to send

you an address.

If you look inside your box,

you'll find a mask and a weapon.

And now you actually have to

go to my old roommates place

and k*ll their cat.

And you might want to hurry

just because if

you get there last.

Well, um, we do have

to k*ll you off.

Yeah. Sorry.

Horror fans,

they love that body count.

All right, um.

All right, let's... come on.

Oh, great.

Perfect. Come on, Emma.

Okay, great.

Looking good.

So psyched.

- So...

Emma Mallory.

Hello? Emma Mallory?

Seriously.

Teddy, shut the f*ck up.

- No, no!

Shut the f*ck up!

Leave. Leave!

Live the role, Emma.

Hey, Mr. Goldberg.

Yeah. I just wanted to say

I'm a huge fan of your work.

- Thanks, man.

- Hey. Yeah, this is Arthur

with your home security systems.

Yeah. It's looking like

we're seeing a break in

through your doorbell camera.

Uh, yeah.

You'll want to do whatever

you can to protect yourselves

before the police get there.

All right. Bye.

- Where the f*ck am I?

f*ck! Oh, God.

Okay. f*ck.

All right, you got this.

You got this, Goldberg,

You got this, man.

f*cking pull through, Goldberg!

Could you just get

your sh*t together?

Where the f*ck is this place?

f*ck!

Guys, I'm...

I'm looking for a cat.

- I got him, baby.

Oh, sh*t.

Well.

You didn't really

get him, did you?

- That's so demeaning.

Here.

We should call the cops.

We should definitely

call the cops.

- Here, take the bat.

I don't want the bat.

- Sam.

- You hold the bat.

- Oh!

Hey!

- Emma Mallory.

How nice to finally

meet in person.

- Dude, the f*ck?

Let's go!

The f*ck did you do, Teddy?

- Teddy? Who is Teddy?

Emma, what happened

to those people,

Teddy, never would

have done that.

Only Leigh.

Right, Emma?

- f*ck, am I late?

Hey, y'all.

Great work and

I'm so sorry about Che,

but now it's time

for our second game.

Emma. Emma.

Hey, Emma, could you please

turn your mic back on?

- Sorry, muted on accident.

I'm so bad at everything here

and as a Therapal.

- Oh.

Oh yeah.

Um yeah. Therapal.

- Stop it stop.

You're acting, you are

both acting right now.

You are not living the role.

- What do you mean, Leigh?

- No no no no no.

- Wait!

Come on.

Ignore him.

Find AJ's laptop.

- Um, Margot, I

think I'm here now.

- sh*t.

sh*t, man.

- It should be in his bedroom.

- Of course, that's locked.

Jesus Christ.

All right.

All right, let's do this.

- Look for Nomi.

What is that?

- Hey, Teddy.

Leigh?

Dude, is AJ still here?

Come on, buddy.

You gotta give me

something, man.

Okay. All right.

- Pat.

Pat! Pat!

- Foresight, Pat.

We really loved

working with you,

but,

you lost the last challenge.

- Yeah, but I mean,

that's his prop, right?

- Pat!

What?

What the f*ck is that?

- Sorry, Pat.

I'm sorry.

Teddy, Teddy, you

know this is f*cked.

Do something.

Teddy!

- Emma Mallory.

You're still my Therapal.

You understand me

better than anyone.

Leigh is a k*ller.

- Uh, Leigh, would you mind,

Would you mind just

help me out here?

Sorry. Just, come on,

come on, come on.

Just help me out with him, okay.

Great. Three. Two. One. Lift!

Okay!

Come on,

come on.

Get up there.

All right, all right,

all right, all right.

- Hi. Hi, I'm Emma.

- All right, so,

act one, of course.

I moved to Los Angeles

with nothing.

- That's right, Leigh.

Once I dispose of Pat's

body, you need to...

How does...

Who posted this?

- Hey, what's going on?

- No no no no no.

- Wait, Teddy, hey, I need

to tell you something.

- I'm done listening to you.

- Leigh.

Let me be real

with you for once.

Can I tell you a story

about my ex, Nomi?

I made a short film

and I put them in it.

We had this one real artsy

shot where her character vapes.

They don't vape.

So...

So I got them a fake one.

The shot looked like sh*t,

obviously fake.

She wasn't playing it right.

So between shots, I replaced

her vape with my real one.

So hard.

It looked perfect.

But later on set,

I got her a coffee

and she looked at me funny.

She smiled, but she

didn't drink it.

And when we got home,

I tried to hug her

and she pulled back.

The three weeks later

we split up.

She never really

trusted me again.

See what I mean?

You're in a movie, man.

This sh*t's just not worth it.

- Hey, Emma.

So sorry for the

overnight sh**t.

Geez, who posted...

Leigh, for your final challenge,

I need you to go to Emma's

and make her live

the role for good.

Okay?

Leigh, come on.

Dude! Whoa!

Oh, good.

Teddy. What the f*ck was that?

- Sorry,

Teddy.

Dammit!

Ah!

Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey

hey hey hey hey hey hey, Teddy.

Teddy! Teddy.

Teddy. Teddy, Teddy.

- Oh!

listen to your character, okay?

f*ck, man.

Dude,

I didn't even know.

Teddy. Teddy!

Stop it!

Leigh, Leigh!

Okay.

- No!

Holy heck.

That was intense, huh?

My heart's racing.

- Are you okay?

- I think so.

- Can you get Nomi, please?

- Yeah. Okay.

She's okay.

She's okay.

- What do we do with him?

Hold still.

Hold still.

Hold still.

Wait.

- Hold still.

Wait! Teddy!

Wait! Sorry, Teddy.

I don't think that...

f*ck! Teddy! Stop!

f*ck! AJs an actor,

he's an actor!

Don't hurt him, Teddy!

Stop! f*ck!

It's a Teddy!

Stop! Teddy, stop!

f*ck! AJ's an actor.

He's an actor.

Don't hurt him!

Teddy! Stop!

f*ck! It's a movie!

Teddy! Stop!

Teddy! Stop!

If you want to keep

the script on screen,

don't you know, don't keep

looking in the corner like...

it just gives everything away.

If you want to keep

the script on screen,

don't you know, don't keep

looking in the corner like it...

it just gives everything away.

- The scene went well, right?

Oh, sorry.

No, the scene went well, right?

Sorry, Cinemaidiots, did

I stutter, the podcast?

- What were we talking about?

- What is this?

- Um, no, that's super cool.

Why?

- Be quiet.

- Teddy, your'e...

- Yeah, yeah.

I get it, I get it, and let

me stop you right there.

You were doing excellent.

Just stick to the script.

Get out of your head and

everything will be okay.

- The whole the method thing,

it's just really not for me.

Um, eventually, I want to

create my own Content.

Let me be real

with you for once.

- Can everyone

hear me all right?

- Mm.

- Awesome. All right.

AJ, I wanted to

ask you something.

Are you content with Content?

I had to ask.

- We did.

We had to ask.

- Great question.

Absolutely.

It wasn't easy.

But I'd say we're happy with it.

Yeah.

Hey, Teddy.

Hi.

It's Margot again.

Just checking in.

Uh, the premieres next week, so.

- But seriously, AJ, what

you did with your tongue,

you went so method.

You gave up everything

for this role.

Even your own body.

I mean, that's some

serious acting, man.

- Hey, it's Margot again.

Again, look, totally

take your time.

But really, AJ's not mad.

And all the other actors.

I mean, you've never

met the real them,

and they'd love to

get to know you.

So think about it, please.

- Alistair Stone.

Six foot two, Los Angeles.

Hey. So I was emailing my

professor the other day.

- Hi. My name is Vaughan Suit.

I'm currently located in

Los Angeles.

I actually have a

surgery coming up

to have my lips sealed.

- Baby, I just feel

like it's all my fault.

- We don't do faults, do we?

- You're right.

What's that?

- Auditioning for

the role of director.

I want to give you an uncut look

at the process

of directing.

We'll blur out what we

don't have the rights to,

but besides that,

this is all absolutely real.

- Witherspoon's people

are looking at us to adapt

the Brunch K*llers

for, uh, for Apple.

- Can't wait for that.

- Wow!

Can we talk about

Teddy Nielsen for a second?

So the question that

everyone's asking is,

did you go to far too

get that performance?

And where is Teddy now?

- Don't get me wrong,

he was fantastic.

Um.

We might not have known

how involved he'd get,

but at the end of the day,

it was all about helping

him live the role.

And we couldn't be happier.

The whole content team,

we can't wait to see

what he'll do next.
