01x02 - Success

[bunniefuu]

[slow ominous music playing]

Oh, come on, sir.

- [Cyrus] Where's my slice?

- [Evan] Sorry, Cyrus. All out.

[thunder rumbling]

[tense music playing]

- [distant roaring]

- [screams]

[distant screeching]

[roaring continues]

- [door slams]

- [roaring and screeching stop]

[sobbing]

[crunching]

[gasps]

[uneasy music plays]

Oh, my God.

[floorboard creaking]

[exhales] Stay away from me.

Saint Mary's?

Is that where you're coming from?

- What's happening outside?

- It's a good hospital.

[exhales, clicks tongue]

You probably went under

when most people did.

sh*t started to go wild.

Computers crashed,

then the aliens showed up.

- Wh-- What?

- Yeah.

The whole world's gone to sh*t.

Aliens out there [inhales]

forcing people. [sighs]

Having their way with them.

Sexually.

Sexually?

I don't understand.

What's your name?

- I'm I'm Evan.

- Evan.

That's a nice name.

I'm Roger. Come on.

I got you.

You'll be all right.

I gotta get out of here, man.

You're lucky you found this place.

We're safe in here.

How long have you been here?

[chuckles]

[sighs deeply]

A long time.

You haven't tried to leave?

[sighs]

- There's only one way to get out of here.

- What?

What is it?

You're not gonna like it.

I don't care if I don't like it, man.

Just tell me.

I saw some people do it

when I first got here.

It was horrible.

You saw it and it worked?

Why haven't you tried?

You need two people.

They both have to be committed.

That's good.

All right.

We're two people, and we're committed.

Just tell me what it is.

Okay.

You see that toilet over there?

Yeah.

I'm gonna sit on that toilet.

And when I do,

there will be a gap between my legs.

You're gonna come over there

and you're gonna sit in that gap.

And listen, this is where it gets odd.

We both have to sh*t at the same time.

And if we can do that,

a portal

will open on that wall

and we can leave this madness.

How could you f*ck with me like that, man?

I'm not f*cking with you.

Sit on a toilet with you

and sh*t at the same time?

- It works.

- Yeah.

Yeah, you're a f*cking lunatic, man.

I'm f*cking out of here.

[rattles]

I wouldn't do that.

[indistinct screech]

[groaning]

[Evan sobs]

I just went in to have

my appendix removed.

You see this wall?

This is the portal that opens some

interdimensional alien something. I

I've seen it.

It works.

[low ominous sting plays]

This is insane, man.

So I'm just gonna sit back

so the gap is big enough for you there.

And then we're gonna sh*t together?

Take a look around, man.

You fell asleep in the hospital

and woke up in a g*dd*mn alien apocalypse.

Machines fighting aliens,

aliens f*cking humans.

Is this really the craziest thing

happening these days?

- They're f*cking humans?

- Uh

Maybe you'd be a little more comfortable

if you just kind of

faced out the other way.

Turn around.

- Yeah.

- [Evan] Yeah, okay.

Yeah.

- [exhales]

- All right.

Now we just need to focus.

Here we go, Roger. [inhales]

Here we go.

[low suspenseful music playing]

[straining]

[stomach grumbles]

- [water splashes]

- [Evan sighs]

[laughs in relief] I sh*t.

I did it, but, uh, nothing's happening.

Evan, I

I didn't go.

What? You You didn't? But

I guess I wasn't ready.

Do you maybe have another one in you?

Another one? I don't know, man.

Hold on. [breathes deeply]

- Oh, maybe a little one.

- Ah.

- That's enough.

- Okay.

All right. Here it goes. You ready?

- You bet.

- Yeah, okay.

Okay, here it goes. Here it

[straining]

- [soft plop]

- [exhales, chuckles]

I did it.

I sh*t!

Oh, my God!

Did you sh*t too? [panting]

You know what?

I didn't.

You didn't go?

Then why did I just sh*t

between your legs?

[whispers] So I can come, baby.

[laughing]

[laughing maniacally]

- [laugh distorts, stops]

- [flesh squelching]

[snarls]

[roaring]

[screaming]

- [roaring and screaming stop]

- [mild music plays over speakers]

What do you think?

I love it.

[laughing] All right! Nice!

- We'll take it.

- Great.

- He's a good kid.

- Yeah.

How'd you trick him?

I made him sh*t.

You did?

- That's very clever.

- Is it?

Yeah. That is very clever.

Do you want the neuron adapter?

It shocks you when the alien comes.

Buddy, what do you think?

- Yeah!

- Yeah, let's go for it.

[Cyrus] All right.

Some people say it hurts,

but I think it adds to the experience.

[dramatic sting plays]

[musical note chimes]

Success is tough.

Some people define success

as spending quality time

with the people they love.

I think we can all agree

that those people are losers.

[women laugh]

[Tom] Success means different things

to different people.

To this person, it's gaining followers.

To this guy, success means spreading

conspiracy theories on the Internet.

I'm a 20-year-old African American woman,

and the measles vaccine

caused my hair to fall out.

And to this man,

it means going to the bathroom

without filling up the entire toilet

with blood.

Not today.

What does success mean to you?

[tense music playing]

[crickets chirping]

[woman] He's one of the most

successful actors to grace the screen.

He's punched, he's kicked,

he's flipped countless bad guys.

Didn't your mother teach you

not to stay out after dark?

[grunts]

[woman] Now we are behind the scenes

on the super-secret set

of the new high-octane thriller

Maximum Kickage.

Starring the man, the myth,

the legend himself,

Steven Seagal.

Steven, you look great.

[inhales] Yeah.

In the film, you play Drake Kicking,

an American sent to Russia

to expose corrupt FBI agents

who are running

a fentanyl and kiddie porn ring.

Also, I dismantle nuclear bombs.

Also, I'm a doctor.

Also, I make love to many beautiful women.

Sort of like you.

Yeah.

[Kerri] Like any great

Steven Seagal movie,

the audience can expect

heart-pounding fight scenes.

[Steven] I do karate on a helicopter.

I do kung-fu on a speeding motorcycle.

I do all my own sh*t.

Not like that p*ssy, Tom Cruise.

Open up.

That was your fault.

Isn't it dangerous

to do stunts practically?

- If you're a b*tch.

- Right. [chuckles]

Van Damme is a b*tch.

Wesley Snipes is a b*tch.

Daniel Craig's a b*tch.

- So how do you--

- Jason Statham's a b*tch.

- Oh.

- Tom Cruise. Did I say him?

- You did.

- He's a double b*tch.

[dramatic music playing]

What's it like sh**ting a movie in Russia?

The greatest. The greatest.

My good friend Vladimir Putin

- was very excited.

- [scattered applause]

This has been a dream come true.

- Y'all supposed to be FBI?

- [man] Mm-hmm.

You're fittin' to be FB bye-bye.

- [alarm blaring]

- [bones crack]

[screaming]

Hi. I'm James Gonzalez,

and I play FBI Villain One. Yeah.

- You'll pay for this.

- Yeah.

[screams]

- Uh, cut.

- [James] What the f*ck, Steven?

I'm Ericka.

I play the Head of Special Forces,

and working with Steven

has been an incredible experience.

- Um, I can't speak highly--

- [wheelchair whirring]

[objects clattering]

[people murmuring]

[Ericka] Um

- [beeping]

- [whirring]

[Ericka] Oh, uh

- Um

- [clatters]

Sugar, this ain't nothing but a nuke.

- Cut the black wire.

- [beeping]

From what I hear,

you don't always stick to the script.

Well, I am the king of improv.

In my 30 years on Special Forces,

I've never seen anyone as brave as you.

- Shut up and kiss me.

- What? Um

[chuckles nervously] Um

I've gotta The b*mb's ticking out.

[rapid beeping]

Um, no.

What are we doing here?

In my 30 years on Special Forces,

I've never seen anyone as brave as you.

Shut up and kiss me.

[rapid beeping]

Like I said, I am the king of improv.

- You do have a way with words.

- [both chuckle]

[imperceptible]

- f*ck, f*ck, f*ck

- [Kerri] Do we need to cut?

[Steven] No, baby. These are my investors.

[in Russian] What's up? [laughs]

[in English] Hey, what a surprise.

Nyet? All right.

Well, this is gonna be a classic.

It's got fights.

Hardcore sex

[in Russian] We've seen the dailies,

this is a garbage movie.

[in English] We only got

one more scene. That's it.

You're gonna love it.

[in Russian] You idiot,

you owe us $80 million.

Oleg, remove his testicles.

[in English] Hey, hey, no, listen, y'all.

Just give old Stevie one more shot.

It's going to be a beautiful scene.

Come watch.

Let me do my magic.

Let me keep my testicles.

[in Russian] Fine, let's see this scene.

Spasibo.

[beeps]

[man 1] Roll, mark.

[man 2] Here we go. Ready and action!

America says it's tax time.

[grunts]

Ah!

You know, I could k*ll you

very easily right now.

But I know you'll be

waiting for me in hell.

[groaning]

f*ck it. [groaning]

[flesh squelching]

[grunting]

- [woman sighs]

- [Steven] I'm dyin'.

I'm bleeding and I'm dying.

Look at me die, everybody.

Cut.

- [bell rings]

- Camera down! I said camera down!

That was the best acting

I've ever seen me do.

[in Russian] We have enough

to finish the film.

[in English] Wait.

It ain't got to be like this. Wait!

["State Anthem of the

Russian Federation" plays]

PLEASE STAND BY

Maximum Kickage coming to hotel rooms

and Russian annexed territories this fall.

Yeah. I just want to go home, man.

[dramatic sting plays]

[musical note chimes]

Hey, hen hounds,

it's your favorite country

global superstar, Rex Henley.

I've been seeing the comments

y'all have been leaving

on my social media platforms

and I've been hearing the jokes on TV.

Country singer, Rex Henley,

has a new single.

It's called, and I'm not making this up,

Rich Guy Advice.

- [all laughing]

- That's the actual the title of the album.

- Rex Henley is a f*cking weirdo.

- [all laugh]

[woman] This is the guy who used

to write heartfelt American songs

about his '65 Chevy.

- Now he's doing this?

- [all laugh]

I get it. Maybe I got too many fancy cars.

Planes and

drink too many iced macchiatos.

Rex, here's some rich-guy advice for you.

- Stop making music, please.

- [all laughing]

- [dramatic sting plays]

- I'mma make a promise to y'all.

The next time you hear a Rex Henley song,

you're gonna get touched

in a way you've never been touched before.

And I like that.

I really like that.

[dramatic sting plays]

[woman panting]

- [breathing heavily]

- [rattling]

- [muffled men chattering]

- [straining]

[foreboding music playing]

[soldier in Korean]

Run faster. Where are you?

Hey, come here! Hurry up!

Hey! What are you doing?

[in English] No, sir, oh, please, sir.

I was just trying to tie my shoe.

[in Korean] You b*stard!

[gasps]

[soldier] It's here, hurry up!

- [rattling stops]

- [latch clicks]

[dramatic music playing]

[breathing heavily]

[gasps]

[soldier] Move, quick!

Move, quickly!

[woman gasping]

[in English] Oh, my God.

Oh. Please don't hurt me.

No one's gonna hurt you.

Where am I?

The last thing I remember

was being at a concert, I think?

Yeah, we were all at a f*cking concert.

[rock guitar music playing over speakers]

Here we go.

- [soldiers shouting indistinctly]

- [all clapping rhythmically]

Don't even think about runnin'.

[Rex over speakers]

Big trucks, cold beer ♪

Stars and stripes

Still fly around here ♪

[woman whispers dramatically] He's coming.

He's coming.

What the f*ck?

[Rex over speakers]

Country music and kickin' a*s, yeah! ♪

[engine revving]

[song continues indistinctly]

[tense music playing]

[in English] Just keep clapping.

[all continue clapping slowly]

[tense music continues]

[rock music plays, fades]

All right!

Is that Rex Henley?

Whoo! All right, you guys ready

for an unplugged sesh?

[all, dejectedly] Yeah.

Hey-hey, that's the good stuff, man.

God damn, I miss those cheers.

Feels good when they clap.

All right. Whoo!

Now, where my hen hounds at?

[people cheer halfheartedly]

[Rex] You guys ready to get to it?

You lazy bums.

[whispers] What is happening?

- [Rex] Enough resting.

- He's kidnapped a bunch of his fans.

- [Rex] We're here to work.

- He's mining us for material.

He's trying to write a new album.

So think of this as a conversation.

We are wiping out the walls

between you and me

in an effort to get to the truth.

That's where I want to go.

I want to get to the real stuff.

Slick stuff, raw stuff.

He even built this fake town

to try to relate to normal folk.

[Rex] The only way you do that

is by being honest.

I'm in pursuit of it.

He calls us the poors.

I'm a brain surgeon.

Now, who's ready

to share a problem they got?

You, hat, tell me one of your problems.

[man] Uh

My feet hurt.

My feet hurt.

You hear this sh*t?

You think I wanna write a song

about a busted f*cking flip-flop?

This ain't Margaritaville, muchacho.

I want some real sh*t.

Why don't you go get your toes done?

Anybody else?

You.

My mother died in 9/11.

Ooh! I like that.

Byung Sung, where are your manners?

Give this starving b*tch a shrimp.

[strumming guitar]

[in Korean] This hag.

- Here's a bunch. Eat it, b*tch!

On a cold September morning ♪

[hesitantly]

Mama got up to go to work ♪

Yeah, I can work with that.

I like that. Very nice.

[whispers indistinctly]

[uneasy music playing]

[sighs]

You know, I like 9/11

as much as the next guy.

But my good buddy, Byung Sung, here

just reminded me that a few months ago,

you said your mama died in a hurricane.

Now, I do not quite recall

what sent those towers crumbling down,

because I was very busy that morning.

But I'm pretty sure

it wasn't a f*cking hurricane!

- [soldiers grunt]

- No! [yelling]

- Oh!

- [woman screaming]

Guys? Guys? Guys!

This is about trust.

I mean, we're a family here.

- [g*nsh*t]

- [gasps]

Families love each other,

families laugh together.

[laughs]

We laugh all g*dd*mn day.

[softly] Oh, we're not a family.

What was that?

[tense music plays]

- What'd you just say?

- Uh

I said I said, "We're not a family."

Uh, yes, we are. It says it right there

on the f*cking merch!

Well, family don't, uh, kidnap each other.

[tense music building]

[laughs, clears throat]

You just

- [music stops]

- f*ck!

Way to ruin the groove, you selfish sh*t.

[sighs]

Session's over. No more jamming today.

- Byung Sung, take that bullshit.

- God damn it!

Nice knowing you.

- [soldier in Korean] Move quickly!

- [indistinct shouting]

[wood creaking softly]

- [soldier 2] Get in and find her. Got it?

- [soldier 3] Yes, sir.

[soldier 2] Let me open the door now.

- Get ready.

- [soldier 3] Yes!

[soldier 2] Here you go.

Get on your feet now!

[woman in English] No! [screaming]

Come here!

Hey, where is it? Find it quickly!

On your knees!

[in English] Oh, God, please!

[in Korean] What?

[in English] Oh. Don't k*ll me!

Please, please, please.

[tense music plays]

[music fades, stops]

[wood creaking softly]

[uneasy music playing]

[Rex] Hey, Shelly, thought a lot

about what you said

and I'd love to chitchat

over dinner up at the residence.

Your compadre, Rex.

P.S. Wash up, stinky!

LOL. [laughs]
