The Comeback (2005) s02e05 Episode Script

Valerie is Taken Seriously

What's happening, Mickey? Oh, one second, Red.
This one spot I always have trouble with.
I need the big guns.
Oh, big guns.
Uh-oh, Jane.
Say goodbye to whatever is left of the ozone.
Remember when the ozone was an issue? Now we've moved on to global warming.
It's always something.
Well, if that doesn't hold it down, I'm going to call an exorcist.
All right, Mickey, we need to start.
I spent all my time setting up these lights.
Okay.
I think I got it.
Okay, tell us how shooting is going.
Shooting is going real good.
Oh, we're getting a lot of really good stuff, so thrilling.
Has working on a show like this been a challenge for you? Sure, yeah, you know, but it's a good thing.
I think, you know, actors need to be challenged.
You know, it just keeps him or her sharp.
It's not like a surgeon, you know, who does the same thing every day.
You know, heart attack seen it, did it, done.
Or me with sitcoms.
CBS seen it, did it, done.
You know, this kind of acting, it's just so different.
You know, every day it's just something new, and that's thrilling.
What are you doing today? Oh, today? Okay, today We're shooting a scene from the sitcom in the show, so back to my comfort zone, you know, where I actually know what I'm doing.
Thank God.
And what episode are you shooting now? Um, so well, I don't actually know which episode, 'cause we're shooting the entire series at once, out of order.
So, I don't I never know where I am.
Can you just say a number? Oh, uh Well, we're in week four, so four.
Okay, can you say, "today we're shooting episode four.
" - Didn't I say episode four? - Well, I need the setup.
Today we're shooting episode four.
Well, okay.
Just give me a beat take a beat and then say it.
Okay, well you gotta let me have a run into it, okay? No, you just keep stopping me, Jane, so just gotta get a flow.
Mickey, let's not.
I don't You know, I don't know.
I was just so excited, you know, to be talking about how exciting it is to do this show.
Right? Now it's just Must talk about numbers.
You know, I don't know why they even care where we are every minute, you know, and I'm half the time I don't know where we are, and I'm in the scene.
Right, no one gives me a road map.
Just have to do it.
You know, just Jane, don't wanna sit here and lie to the people, you know, 'cause that's not what this is.
Right? This is supposed to be a real representation of my experience on this show, you know.
So I don't know if we're doing episode four or two or back to one or you know, just keeping it real.
You asked me to do this.
- What's that? - I'm doing it.
We're right in the middle of doing episode four.
Jane, sorry about earlier, you know.
Just let the pressure get to me, so Newsflash: I'm human.
We good? Can you just say, "we good"? Take a beat, then say it.
We good.
Role reversal.
- Aunt Val, this came for you out there.
- Oh, all right.
You interrupted me, but "Mallory, blow me.
Love, Mitch.
" Oh! From Mr.
Seth Rogen, huh? I shouldn't have said "mister.
" He said, "blow me," I said, "mister.
" Too formal.
Valerie, they're inviting you to set.
Oh, okay.
Hey, uh, Shauna.
Where's Seth? Just wanna say thank you for the gift.
Seth doesn't have any more scenes with you.
This is Shayna, go to two.
We're on to his rehab and relapse work.
Oh, well, once again surprise! He got me a wrap gift, so I didn't get him anything.
That that doesn't look good.
Okay, you know what? Tyler, can you get me Seth's address, please? - Ready, Val? - Yeah.
Okay, this is exciting.
Really can't wait to see the "Room and Bored" set.
Is it around here? No? - This is it? - This is awesome! - Okay.
Oh, Shauna, doll - Shayna.
I thought we were shooting the "Room and Bored" scene.
We are, but this version's all in Paulie G.
's mind, so we're doing it green screen.
It's his fantasy of what happened.
- Yeah.
- His imagination.
Okay.
First ad and DVD commentary, okay.
Couldn't he have imagined furniture? Valerie, hi.
Rada from current programming.
We met a few weeks ago.
Yeah! No, nice to see you.
Hi, Connor.
Good to see you.
Hi.
Hi, doll.
How's it all going? Oh, well, we're doing some green screen.
Yeah.
Very nice.
Well, we just wanted to come by and give you a heads up about Paulie G.
Why? W-what happened to him? Oh, nothing.
He's right over there.
Oh, okay.
Well, right, might not want to point.
Oh, you're right.
Of course.
So He's not going to be directing this episode or the next one.
He's not? Okay.
So so he's not, all right.
Why not? Yeah.
He was falling so far behind with the last two scripts, so Oh, okay.
So, yeah.
Well, you know what? Wearing a lot of hats, right? He's under a lot of pressure.
Poor guy.
Well, we got Andie Tate to take over.
Have you worked with Andie before? No, what's he like? She's great.
- That's her over there.
- Oh, oh! - With the uh-huh.
- Love her.
With the that.
Love her.
So lucky to get her.
She directed "Kick It" - Uh-huh.
- 3D.
" - Oh.
- She used to be a dancer.
But also a very good director.
She did all the green screen work on "Bitches vs.
Witches," so you're in good hands.
Okay, and Paulie's okay with all this? Andie! Get over here, girl.
Oh, is that Valerie Cherish? The one and only.
Wanted to introduce you to the Valerie Cherish.
Hi, Valerie.
Andie Tate, so nice to meet you.
Oh, aren't you sweet? And a woman and a dancer, huh? Well, the woman thing I try to keep under wraps around the crew, but the dancer, she gets out.
Oh! Whoa! Look at you.
So fun.
Look at you.
Well, la di da.
La di da la la.
- That's my Annie Hall.
- Oh! Well, so just give me one second, and then we'll walk through the scene.
Okay? Okay.
Uh-oh! Right? We are gonna have us some fun! Yeah? Okay.
I think so.
Yeah, I think so.
Well, we'll see you later.
Okay, great.
Yeah, thank you.
Thank you.
Oh my God.
Look at that.
Wow, this show.
I'm you never know! Right? You just never know.
Do you wanna say something about Paulie G.
? You know, well you know.
Feel bad about Paulie G.
, you know, poor guy.
It's too bad, 'cause we were just getting into a good groove.
You know, so Gonna miss him, you know.
Gonna miss you, Paulie! Oh, he's got his headphones on.
He couldn't hear me.
Val? Val, we got a little bit of a problem.
What is it, Billy? Can you give me a minute? Did you get my email about all the interviews I lined up for us? Oh.
Yeah, I got a lot of things lined up Buzzfeed, Jezebel, "Usa Today" online Valerie? I'm Carl.
I'm with HBO publicity.
Specifically, I deal with talent/press relations.
Oh, hi.
Is there any way I could meet that little fellow from "game of thrones," Peter Dinklage? I'm a big fan.
Now's not the time, Mickey.
Well, I'm just putting it out there.
Okay.
We have Liz Novotny coming from "the New York times.
" "The New York Times"? "The New York Times"? Okay, classy.
Yes, but why do they make their crossword puzzle so hard? What are they trying to prove? HBO has a special relationship with "The New York Times," and we promised them a first look at "Seeing Red.
" Oh.
And I'm I'm sorry.
I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes, but we're a little more selective as to who we let our talent talk to.
- Okay.
- What are you saying? That I'm not selective? Name one web outlet on that list that isn't a home run.
Valerie, are you ready to try this? Get our swerve on? I think I've seen it, and then there's something new.
- It's so good.
- Val, we'll talk later.
They'll work it out.
Yeah, great.
Okay, so it's just a silly sitcom, so let's just have fun with it.
- Okay.
- Yeah? Okay.
But, you know, it's just too bad we don't have an audience, you know, for the timing.
- Oh, audience is right there.
- Oh! What is that, like, 20 people? They're actors, so we cut and paste them over and over in post until we have 200.
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Uh uh-uh.
It's not gonna work.
Okay.
You know, they're actors.
You know, they're not gonna laugh.
They're gonna be jealous that I got the part and they didn't.
You know? So Just speaking my truth.
Okay.
Well, they'll laugh when I tell them to laugh, or they'll be back at the sag-aftra lounge.
Okay? So let's try this scene.
Okay.
Aunt patsy enters her bedroom.
She's going to the beach with the kids, so she needs her bathing suit, which is in the chest of drawers.
And that's where? Oh, right against the wall here where the blue "x" is.
- The blue "x"? Mm-hmm.
Okay? Give it a try.
Well, I'll try.
Not sure I'm gonna how I'm gonna do, 'cause I wasn't really expecting to be working in a gumdrop today.
Okay.
So, just - Fabulous.
- Really? Yeah.
Didn't feel that great, 'cause I'm not really a mime.
Did it once at a mall in college, but, you know, it's not my thang, so You're perfect.
It all happens in post.
Okay.
Okay.
And then you hold up your bikini top Uh-huh.
And aunt patsy looks down at the bikini top, and she says "Well, I hope you boys are up for the challenge, "'cause the twins need you, and this time it's personal.
" - Great.
- Material works.
- And then we walk over to the couch - Uh-huh.
And you see the boys, Charlie and Jake.
Okay, but where are the boys? They're not here? Oh, they're shooting movies, so we have to add them later in post.
Post is gonna be busy.
Okay.
- Okay, so Charlie Uh-huh.
Says, "are you almost ready, aunt patsy?" And you say "Boys, at my age, a day at the beach isn't exactly a day at the beach!" I take it back.
It works.
Okay, so then the boys pull off their shirts To show aunt patsy their newly waxed chests, and that's when you get so excited that you start spinning and spinning and morph into the monster.
Right.
Okay.
Okay, now they're just laughing at anything.
No, the spinning's funny.
'Cause when you spin, you suck in everything in the room, so the furniture, the food, even one of the boys.
- Uh-huh.
- Uh-huh.
Okay, well, hopefully that's all done in post, 'cause I just had lunch.
Quick question, Andie.
Do you think I could know what the monster looks like? Uh, yeah.
We have a picture.
Oh! Get to see a picture, that's fun.
Yeah.
Here we go.
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Well, that's great, just to have a mental picture, right, 'cause I've been playing around with a couple voices.
Something like, um, you know, I'm a monster, and I'm dangerous.
There's no voice! - Well - You're the monster, Val.
- You got it? - Okay.
You don't have to do anything, because you're the monster.
You.
Clear? Yeah.
Uh-huh.
I'm playing the character who's the monster.
- Mallory's the monster.
I get it.
- That's right, yeah.
That's right.
Okay, good.
Mickey, how is it? What is it bad? Let me - Oh no.
- Oh my.
No, I can't I can't go out like this.
I don't want people to see me like this.
Can I have that robe? This is just not good.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- I canceled everything.
- Okay.
All the interviews I set up for you are canceled.
- All right.
- So HBO will stop having a hissy fit, and I'll take the hit because that's what I do.
Okay, Billy.
Not now, not now.
I have no hair.
No, no, it's fine.
I'll just go fuck myself.
God damn it! And people are gonna get pissed at me.
They're not pissed at HBO.
They're fucking pissed at me.
Okay, do you want some water or something? Do you know what I do all day long, Valerie? I make phone calls on your behalf.
I probably have a fucking brain tumor from my cellphone.
Fuck! I should have seen this coming.
You were on the verge of launching, and every time I get close, some bullshit happens, and I get shut down! And then they leave.
Eva fucking Longoria, right before she got "Desperate Housewives," she left me, and I was the one who was fucking desperate, not her.
Well I don't want to be a fucking failure.
Are you crying? Is he crying? Billy, listen.
Don't cry at work.
It's not professional.
Leave me alone.
I don't care.
Oh! Admit it, Valerie.
You're just gonna fire me eventually, anyway, so why don't you just do it now? Fire me! But I you know what? Fuck it.
I quit.
Okay.
You okay? I left my cellphone in here.
Yeah, well I can't even fucking quit right.
Billy half-ass.
What was that? Yeah, well, I think you know what? I think he was embarrassed, you know, in front of HBO, the big guns, you know, 'cause they're right.
That Carl knows what he's doing.
Hm, gorgeous head of gray hair, but my philosophy is, "when it starts to go, let it.
" I think, you know, he just Couldn't handle the pressure, you know? Poor little Billy snapped.
Just snapped, you know.
Wants it so bad.
And you heard what he said, we're approaching super stardom now, so You know, couldn't handle it.
Flew too close to the sun.
Valerie, we're inviting you to set.
Okay.
I'm gonna need my sunglasses.
Here you go.
Here, here, here.
- Oh.
- Here.
Look at that.
Like magic.
I hope it stays on.
Okay.
This is good.
At least no one will recognize me, right, dressed like this, so that's good.
- Valerie.
- Yeah.
This is Liz Novotny from "The New York Times.
" Valerie, hello.
Hello.
So oh, you're here today.
She's here today? Well, yes.
We discussed this.
Well, we didn't say she was coming today, so, you know, it's just I'm sorry.
I just you know.
As you can see, I'm not ready for my close-up.
So.
Could we just do this tomorrow then, or I have Seth tomorrow.
Oh.
Yeah, so then it has to be today.
Okay.
Sure.
That's fine.
That's fine, yeah.
Just didn't want to meet you dressed like this, you know.
It's not easy being green.
Okay, we'll see you on the set.
We sure will.
Yeah.
Well She's staring.
Okay.
Great.
Hey, Val, can you move your weight from side to side while you're turning? There you go! That's what I'm talking about.
Great.
Now you got it.
That's it.
Great.
Okay, Val, now I want you to pretend like you're tearing a child apart, okay? You're just ripping a child apart.

Yeah.
Okay? In a little bit? Yeah.
You are quite the twirler.
Twirling in front of "The New York Times," Mickey.
Liz, hi.
Just wanted to say This isn't what we normally do you know, this stuff, the special effects.
I'm ripping a child apart.
I don't know what they're gonna have me do for an encore.
Eat Santa Klaus? Don't worry, I know this isn't representative of the entire season.
Yeah.
Okay, good.
I saw the first episode.

Mm-hmm.
Your performance is Very brave.
Yeah.

No.
Right.
Oh.

So we're gonna go again, guys.
- Great, yeah.
Let's talk.
- Okay.
Great.
All right everybody, let's go back to one, please.
And five, six, and seven, eight, and one! You know what? My hair I feel my hair coming out, so Mickey has to check it.
- All right.
- Looks good to me, Red.
Um Okay, she saw the first episode.
She said my I was brave.
What does that mean, "brave"? I don't know.
I gotta see the dailies.
You know what? Just gotta see 'em.
Gotta see what they look like.
I wonder if I can get it on DVD.
They don't put dailies on DVDs anymore.
- Oh.
- You gotta go to Dax.
Hey, Val, we're good to go, so can we Oh, um um, Dax.
Who's Dax? Who do I talk to? That's oh, is that the crew guy with the kilt? - No, it's a web site - Okay.
But you have to have a password to see them.
Okay, do you have a password for that by any chance? No, "B.
" I didn't type "B.
" I know, but it's b-2-7-h.
- Val? - Yeah? Val, what's with all the pounding? This is crazy.
Your show guys have been here for hours.
I know, but they have to be here, though.
Well, what are they doing? They have to turn the dining room into a hospital for the OD scene.
You're not even in the hospital scene.
- Red, I think we're in.
- Okay.
This is supposed to be behind-the-scenes only.
I'm finding a sublet.
It's 11:30, so he's allowed.
"A" only.
12, mark.
Action.
That's fine.
I'll leave a message, okay? I don't care if you're available or unavailable.
I don't care if you just found out that you have herpes or hepatitis C from one of those whores that you pay to come to your room on show nights.
I've been in this business a lot longer than you have, and I will be in this business long after they take you out in a body bag, because you are gonna OD on some shit that you pump into your veins, because you hate yourself.
And guess what? I'm your way out, and you're too fucking stupid to even know it.
Cut! Oh, Red.
All these years You can really act.
Oh.
Well, now No, that's not good.
You know.
It's wonderful.
Well, no, because, you know making me look that way.
You know, that was take 12, okay? And I was tired, and he pushed me to that.
I'll find another take.
No.
There wasn't enough light.
I can feel it.
I can feel it, you know? I can feel it.
- Action.
- Nope, that's not good.
Turn it off, all right? Just get rid of it.
Gotta do some damage control, you know, 'cause people aren't gonna want to see me look like that.
Jane, see that? All right.
Gotta get Billy back.
Get some pretty magazine covers, 'cause, you know, no one on this show cares about how I look.
Huh? There's too much light in here.
Will? Hi.
Don't want to disturb you while you're setting up the lights.
Oh, hey, Val.
How's it going? Just great.
Just a quick thought, though, you know, that maybe you might want to put one or two more lights in there, you know.
Just maybe you know, just so it's not so dark all the time.
Yeah, Val, I don't know.
I think that's a Paulie G.
decision.
- Uh-huh.
Well - Did someone mention my name? Oh, yeah.
Hey, Paulie.
Um, I think Val has a question for you.
- Yeah, what's that? - Okay.
Um, I Show is looking real good, okay? Got to see some of the dailies - What? - Yeah, yeah, and so it looks real good.
Well, how did you get to see the dailies? - Well, I just got - Where's Ron? - Where's Ron? Ron! - Coming! Okay.
Well, anyway, so I was telling him that it looks real good, but just spit-balling maybe there could be more light for some of the show, just for contrast.
- What do you need? - Valerie saw the dailies.
I specifically said I don't want anyone seeing the dailies.
She's on the no-dailies list.
But I barely saw anything, just 'cause it's so dark.
Right? So That's why I'm just thinking maybe you put in, like, a light box or two, or I don't know the technical term for that.
Just, you know, for my eyes, so they pop, so you can see oh.
Okay.
Paulie? Just trying to have a conversation here.
Oh my God! I can't believe I'm having this conversation.
I don't want you looking at the dailies.
Uh-huh.
Why is that? 'Cause you don't want me to see How I look, huh? You don't want me to see that you're making me look bad? You're trying to make me the monster.
What the fuck are you talking about? I don't want you looking at the dailies, because I don't want to have fucking pretend conversations with you about light boxes, which aren't even a real fucking thing.
Okay.
Jesus Christ, this isn't "Star Wars," for fuck's sake.
I am two scripts behind.
Do you hear me? Two! I do not need this shit right now, Valerie.
Jesus, you make me want to put a fucking needle in my arm.
Jane, think we should go after him? Just none of my business, right? It's just He used to have Tom, you know? A writing partner to talk things over with, right? Now he's all alone.
What's he gonna Should we check? Should we just go and see? Maybe it's just something he said, huh? Yeah, probably just something he said.
So take a trip around the world And see what there is to see A pretty bird Who's just absurd A brainy worm Who likes to squirm And a lamb who can do math We're all right here for when you're near We got your back, no need to pack Your next stop is Nicky Nicky Nack Nack Cut.
Okay, let's set up to go one more time before lunch.
There he is.
Jane, that's Tom.
I was afraid I wouldn't recognize him without Paulie G.
Tom? Aha! - Tom Peterman.
- Val.
Val Cherish.
You're early.
So glad I am.
Got to see all this.
Wonderful, just wonderful.
Still got the cameras, I see.

So So What can I do for you, Val? Yeah oh.

So I, um, just wanted to Talk to you, 'cause I'm doing this show for HBO.

Anyway, I'm just Um I don't know, getting a little worried, 'cause I think he needs some help, and I don't know how to do that, so, surprise, here I am talking to you.
Oh no.
Gee, Val.
I don't know what I can do.
I haven't talked to that guy in I don't know, six years? Probably.
Six years, wow.
So, looks like you two are due for a chat.
Val, I'm serious, and even if I could help you, I'm not sure I would.
We didn't oh.
Yeah, we didn't end well, he and I.
We should probably stop talking.
Oh, yeah.
Well, we can stop.
Jane, we can stop.
Tyler, get out of there.
That's it's a hot set.
You can't get don't do that.
Yeah, no, they're gone.
It's okay.
Sorry, excited to be here, I think.
Um, I Yeah, I'm just I'm nervous, 'cause I feel like, you know, he's on the edge again.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, he probably is on the edge, because the whole time we were working together, he was on the fucking edge, and I was trying to pull him back.
- Yeah.
- Can I ask you something, Val? - Sure.
- Why are you working with him? Do you have any idea what he used to say about you? He said that you're the devil.
He said that you're the devil, and we should find a stake and pound it through your heart - If you have one.
- Uh-huh.
And kill you.
Well Real glad you didn't take him up on that.
Seriously, Tom, everyone wants to go to eat.
I'm having a meeting.
Give me one fucking minute.
Jesus.
Sorry.
Yeah.
You need to get away from him, Val.
Well, look, okay.
He was under pressure, right, - and he was a drug addict.
- Mm-hmm.
So he made mistakes, said some things.
I said some things too, you know, to Mark after a glass of Pinot Grigio.
Well, listen, like the old saying goes, "let he who has done it, cast the first stone.
" Ugh! Jesus, why? I don't get this business.
Why does everybody make excuses for that guy? Not making excuses.
I practically had to go into Al-anon to deal with his bullshit.
We write that shit sitcom, "Room and Bored," ruins my career, and in the meantime, everybody can't wait to fucking work with him? Like, I I just I like I have no points on "Nicky Nicky Nack Nack.
" Five seasons as an ep.
Five, and none.
Wow.
Oh.
This is the biggest fucking show on Nickelodeon in years.
- It's not fair.
- I have no points, and he lands a big fat deal at HBO? It's like, "what the fuck?" - Not that big a deal.
- Come on.
W-what are you doing? I swear to God, if you come in here one more time I'm gonna rip you in half.
Well, I am tired of waiting.
Do you know how hot this fucking suit is? Fuck you, you're getting paid! - Fuck you back! - Go.
I'm in a meeting.
- Fuck you, Tom! - Fuck off! Go! Go! I'm in a fucking Don't fucking push me.
- I will call sag.
- Go! I don't want to be involved.
That's fine.
Look, he just knocked down the the dude knocked over I'll fix it.
I got it, look.
Yeah, it's fixed.
Don't worry.
- I'm sorry.
- Listen, don't stress yourself.
Don't worry about it.
Jane, we should go.
I don't know where you are.
Cameras, everyone.
It's Mark.
What is it? So, um, Mark just rented a house in the Palisades.
So that's fun for us.
Right? Val! I got the flowers.
Oh, good.
And I feel the exact same way.
Let's just forget whatever that was in the trailer.
Honestly, I had a turkish coffee at lunch, and it made me insane.
Sure.
No, got it.
Yeah.
Important thing is is you're back, right? I am back.
