[upbeat music playing]
[knocking on door]
[sighs]
Oh, shit.
-What did I do?
-I knew I recognized the name on the box.
You didn’t do anything. That’s the old me.
-You’re not here to serve me?
-No.
You promise?
I’m just here to deliver a box.
-Okay.
-I’m sorry for lying to you.
I hated lying to people,
so I changed professions.
That’s-- Yeah, that’s water
under the bridge, man.
How’d the divorce go?
It-- It went-- Yeah, it’s going, so
-Oh. Okay.
-Is that for me, or--
Yeah. Uh, do you mind,
can I get a picture?
Sure, okay. Sure.
-I appreciate that.
-All right. Okay.
Oh, I see you’re gonna
take it now, all right.
-[laughs]
-All right.
[indistinct]
Yeah.
Hey, man, thank you.
Thank you, I appreciate that.
Yeah. No problem.
My sister, she would be pissed
'cause I didn’t get
a picture last time, so
Does she have a birthday coming up, or--
Yeah, next month.
-Find me on Cameo.
-Will do.
-Yeah. Okay.
-All right. Thank you.
-Yeah, thank you.
-Have a good one, brother.
[Jeremy] Okay.
[vacuum whirring]
[percussive jazz playing]
[debris rattling]
Hello! Don’t mind me.
Hello over there!
Good morning!
Can I help you?
-[screams] What?
-Oh, my God!
Jesus, Izzy, you scared
the shit out of me.
Well, what-- what are you doing?
Why are you cleaning
like you’re in trouble with the law?
I’m just cleaning
because Jeremy’s coming over
and I’m gonna pitch him
the eternal convention, okay?
Oh. Have you spoken to Seth?
No, I’m gonna speak to Jeremy first,
and then I’m gonna speak to Seth
to make sure Jeremy’s in first.
You’re trying to get back with Jeremy.
-[scoffs]
-Mm-hmm.
-Okay.
-Mm-hmm.
The cleaning, the planning.
This screams you trying to impress a guy,
and I just feel like maybe--
Why would I have been hanging out
with Michael then, huh?
Oh, Michael. I forgot.
So you guys are sleeping together?
-No.
-But you’re-- you're kissing.
You’re macking on?
Well, we kiss every day at work, so
You know what I mean.
Like a "kiss" kiss.
Just because you’re trying
to bonk Seth again
doesn’t actually mean
I’m trying to get back together
with Jeremy.
I’m not trying to bonk anyone, actually.
-No?
-No.
I’m trying to finish this spec shot list
so that I can send it to my showrunner
when I pitch for a director’s slot.
How have you already
not done that, bro?
Because I need a lot
of preparation before I do that.
It’s your show. Picking Daisy.
You’re Daisy. You’re good.
I-I have to prove that I know
what I’m talking about,
and that I’m learned,
and that I’ve got something to give.
Christ, mate,
you’re overthinking it, okay?
You don’t like asking for things.
That’s your biggest problem.
-[sighs]
-Last week
you drank a frothed milk
instead of the cortado
that you ordered.
-I actually quite like a frothed milk.
-Oh, come on.
Can you just sack up
and own your power, bitch?
I’m serious, man.
These slots, they fill up fast.
You don’t want to miss the boat.
And please, Izzy,
if you’re gonna eat pita chips
in the living room,
could you put
a throw down on the couch?
Because your greasy little paws
get all over the couch covers,
and it costs a fucking arm and a leg
to get them cleaned.
I’m gonna fucking kill you.
-Excuse me?
-I said I’m gonna fucking kill you.
My house, my rules.
[vacuum whirs]
-[yells]
-Oh, God! Okay, sorry!
[indistinct shouting]
[upbeat music plays]
[strains]
[grunting]
Oh!
[grunting]
Oh!
Bitch.
Ah!
Fuck!
Damn it.
[exhales]
[sighs]
[exhales]
I feel frustrated.
So, what are you doin' when you’re not
chasing actors down in a parking lot?
[clears throat] Well played, sir.
Um, I’m actually a creative director
for a health and wellness brand.
-Oh, cool.
-It’s called
MindBodyBlissfulness.com.
-I’m gonna forget that.
-Yeah.
-But I’ll ask you it later.
-No worries. I’ll text it to you.
-Oh, cool.
-You know, I joined
because it started off
as this great, like, newsletter,
daily meditations, all that stuff.
And it’s also an e-commerce,
so we sell everything
from crystals to tarot cards
to vitamins, and I-- I hate myself.
-Why, what’s--
-I’m pushing vitamins
on social media platforms.
It’s doing exactly the opposite
of what I wanted to do.
Well, aren’t vitamins good for people?
No, it’s all bullshit.
-The vitamin B?
-All of them.
Doesn’t do anything.
-D?
-No. Get more from dick.
[laughs] Wow.
Um, it’s actually very refreshing
to hear that from you.
Don’t you just feel like sometimes
society makes us believe
that if we follow a certain path
that it leads to happiness?
But what if it doesn’t?
I just feel like I’m at a crossroads
with all of my life choices.
I just felt like everything was stale.
I needed to shake things up.
And that’s why I-I moved to L.A.
with my sister for two months.
Well, I-I think that’s really smart
to embrace that.
I think most people can’t do that.
I feel like the world needs more Ambers
who are brave enough
to actually take a pause in life
and-- and think about forging a new path.
I think that takes a lot of guts.
Thank you.
-You’re welcome.
-Yeah.
So what have you been workin' on, man?
Oh, um, right now,
it’s kind of the, um,
anger management stuff.
-Just working through that.
-Oh. Yeah?
Punch any holes in the wall recently?
Uh, I did-- I did, yeah,
smash up a ring light.
-[laughs]
-No, but it’s actually--
It’s been really good.
I feel a lot of the stuff
that I’ve been learning with sobriety
has helped me
through that stuff, you know.
Finding solutions,
focusing on the solutions,
reaching out to my family,
communicating, you know?
Like that kind of stuff.
-I’m proud of you, man.
-Thank you.
Those tools are gonna come in handy
when you get that job.
-When you start back working.
-Yeah.
Well, hey, Jeremy,
the reason I asked you
to come out here today is, uh
I, um
I relapsed.
Oh.
-Um, are you--
-Yeah.
Are you okay?
Yeah, man. I fucked up.
Sorry, man.
But it’s not that big of a deal, right?
Like, this kind of thing happens
all the time.
Isn’t that what they say?
Like, it takes a few goes.
No, no, no.
It’s a big fucking deal.
-Oh.
-All right.
Sure, statistically speaking,
relapses are commonplace.
But when they happen,
you got to stop everything.
You gotta go back and figure out
what the hell went wrong
so it doesn’t happen again.
You gotta--
You gotta go all the way back?
Step one.
That seems a little bit excessive,
don’t you think?
Couldn’t you, like, start
from step six or seven?
No, man. Hey, there’s no half measures.
-Right.
-So, unfortunately,
what this means is,
I can’t be your sponsor anymore.
Okay. Um, that sucks.
What I do have for you
is a list of names and numbers.
Great guys who are gonna make
great sponsors.
[Jeremy sighs] I--
I like you, Tony. I like this.
-Oh, man.
-This is what I want for you, man.
I want you to get that job.
Somethin' steady at least, okay?
Mm.
And be of service.
It helps you to help others.
Remember that.
Be of service. Okay.
Hey, could I--
Could I help you?
Help me with?
Could I be your sponsor?
[laughs]
No, man. I've-- I’ve got my own sponsor.
It doesn’t work.
-Okay.
-Thank you, though, but
For sure.
-no.
-Cool.
[Seth] What about a cruise?
[Amber] I love boats, but no.
It’s like living on a giant petri dish.
-I’m just stuck.
-[laughs]
Maybe another 75 years.
Yeah, just wheel me on.
-Bumping walkers on there.
-[laughs]
I’ve always wanted to live on a boat.
My mom loved boats.
Well, that’s what my-- my dad tells me.
Oh, well, what happened to your mom?
Um, she passed away when I was seven.
-Oh, shit.
-Breast cancer.
-Yeah.
-[sighs]
Fuck. I’m sorry.
No, it’s okay, I was-- I was too young
to really remember,
but she had a really beautiful smile.
And whenever my dad
talks about her, he just--
He lights up.
Hmm.
He’s such a good dad.
I-I can’t even imagine
what it’s like being a single dad.
Like--
[scoffs] No way.
-No. It’s so hard.
-Mm.
What about you?
Any girlfriends currently?
Uh, no.
I’ve-- I've had a couple
of failed relationships.
Haven’t we all?
You know, it feels like
you should know more
about relationships when you get older,
but I’m starting to feel like
I know less.
-Ah, yes.
-[laughs] So,
I don’t want to rush and settle,
but, uh, I know the clock
is definitely ticking, so
Yeah, well, you don’t need
to say stuff like that.
It's, uh-- It just sounds
a little desperate,
and women can sniff that out a mile away.
[laughs]
Fair point. Touché.
Well, what about you?
What’s your dating situation?
Not really focused on that.
-Hmm.
-I feel like there’s a lot of things
I need to figure out for myself.
Well, do you plan on--
Should we go on a kayak ride?
[Seth] Uh, right now?
-You can swim, right?
-Yeah.
We’re good. We don’t need life vests.
Let’s try it. Come on.
I-I don’t know if we can just take those.
Oh, come on,
we’re just gonna borrow it.
Isn’t that like grand theft?
It’ll be a quick ride. Let’s go.
[laughs] Okay.
What if we get caught?
[Amber] It’s perfect.
-Everything’s here.
-[Seth] Uh-oh.
And just chuck it.
-One, two, three.
-Are you-- I don’t--
[cheerful music plays]
[doorbell rings]
[sighs]
-Hi!
-Hey, how are you?
-Good. How are you?
-Oh, good.
-You got here fast.
-Did I?
-Yeah.
-Oh.
Well, it’s a beautiful day. Come on in.
Alrighty, um
Okay, so, meeting open.
So here is what I have for you.
But before you get into it,
just know that this offer
includes first-class flights,
five-star accommodation
and double per diem.
What is that?
Well, I mean it’s--
You know what per diem is.
It’s just double.
It’s just very nice little pocket money.
This is Fantasy Con 7.
Wait this-- this is
an Eternal convention.
Well, I mean, so it’s not
an Eternal convention,
but it’s a convention
for all vampire-based shows.
-I-I know what Fang Fantasy is.
-Oh, you do?
Yeah, I tried to get us
to go to Fang Fantasy 6, remember?
This is gonna be huge. You realize that?
Like, this would be the first time
that all three of us
have gotten together in public
since the show ended.
It’s about time, right?
How did this happen?
Well, you know, I just--
I kind of got the wheels
in motion, and um--
And-- And it was-- You know what?
It was actually--
It was kind of a coincidence.
-Wait, so you--
-What?
You did this?
I-- Well, I mean,
I-I didn’t arrange it all,
but yeah, I-I just reached out to my reps
and just sort of mentioned
that, you know,
we-- we could be into it, so
Do we split this, or is this--
No, no, so everything in that folder--
See? "Jeremy." That one’s all for you.
Everything in there.
So that would be for each of us.
[laughs softly]
So are you in?
-Am I in?
-Mm-hmm.
I would do this for free.
-Yay!
-This is a dream come true.
I can’t believe
this is happening right now.
Thank you, thank you for this.
Don’t thank me.
I-- I’m just so glad
you’re excited about it.
[Jeremy] Oh, I mean,
I’ve always wanted to go to Orlando.
Yeah. Hi!
-Hey.
-Hi.
You, uh
You forgot this last night.
Oh, tha-- thank you.
Come-- Come in, come in.
I-I was-- I was just, um
running Jeremy through the--
the convention thing that--
Um, you know how we talked about it?
Oh, he-- he knows about this?
Yeah, Michael had some
really helpful insight
on the whole world because, you know,
I-I don’t know much about it, so
Super-helpful Michael.
[Andrea] No, that’s--
No, it’s just-- Whoa, hey! Hey!
Don’t even think about it, man!
Don’t even think about it!
-I was going for my journal.
-Your what?
My journal. It’s right there
on the coffee table.
Oh, man.
-[groans]
-Jesus, what the fuck, man?
-[Michael] I thought he was--
-What are you doing?
I thought you were
comin' at me, man.
-I thought you were-- I thought--
-Comin' at you?
I don’t even know that karate move.
It’s not karate, it’s judo!
God! [sighs] This is--
-Oh, my God.
-I-I--
I’m sorry. I’m sorry.
I didn’t mean
This is weird
that I’m even here right now.
-No, it’s not. It’s really--
-This is-- No, uh, listen,
I like-- I like you so much.
I like you so much.
This is my friend.
But I think you guys still have
some things to figure out.
And this is starting
to feel like a mistake.
So I’m gonna go.
I’m sorry.
[Michael] I’m sorry
for throwing you on the couch.
That was weird.
Goodbye.
[upbeat music playing]
[Isabella] You’re prepared.
You deserve this.
You’ve worked.
They’re not gonna be insulted.
No, they’re gonna be flattered.
They’re not gonna laugh at you.
You are--
You’re-- You’re good. You’re ready.
You are absolutely fine.
[automated voice] Call from Linda.
Picking Daisy AP, answer.
Hello. Um, hi. How’s it going?
[Linda over phone]
Hey, sorry to bother you.
Do you have a minute?
Uh, yeah. Abs--
Absolutely. Um, what’s up?
So we’ve narrowed down the candidate
for the new series regular role,
and we wanted to see
if you were still in touch with Seth?
Seth Stewart? Yeah. Yeah.
Did that end badly?
Uh, no, no, no, no.
Um, I mean, we-- We had
a falling out as people do,
but that wasn’t even
my last falling out, so
Umm, no, no, no, we’re good.
We’ve moved on.
So you’re single
and you’re friends with Seth.
Yeah. Um, yes.
But, I mean, it would be great
to work with Seth
because I think he’s very talented
and we’ve got great chemistry.
Oh, so you wanna
get back together with him.
[laughs]
No, no, no.
I-I-I didn’t say that. I--
Well, you didn’t have to.
[laughs nervously]
I’m fucking with you!
-[both laugh]
-This is super.
We can have a lot of fun with this.
Okay, I’ll update when it’s a done deal.
-Take care, honey.
-Okay. Sorry, Linda, um,
if you’re not immediately busy
and you’re not, like, rushing
to another call,
I was just wondering and being
very mindful of the fact
that I don’t wanna waste your time.
I just wanted to see
if, um, you were potentially open
to chat about the possibility
of me directing
one episode next season?

[laughing]
[grunts, sighs]
Jason’s calling. Who’s Jason?
Oh, well, that’s my agent.
Here you can use my pants to dry off.
-You sure-- You sure?
-I’m just joking, you little groper.
-Sorry.
-I’m just playing.
-Go for it. Go.
-Okay.
Here.
[laughs] Ah!
Hello?
Seth fucking Stewart. I don’t believe it.
Well, kind of I do, but also, I don’t.
W-What’s goin' on?
I’m talking to the newest
cast member of Picking Daisy.
You did it, boy. Congrats!
Fuck me, are you serious?
[Jason laughs]
Series fucking regular!
[grunts]
Oh, man, I hope you stocked up
on pomegranates and sweet potatoes
because your ass is gonna be shirtless
for ten episodes of comedy gold!
Wait, wait, what?
I’m just kidding, man, all right?
Look, I’m just so proud of you.
You deserve it, all right?
I’m gonna circle up
with the lawyers, man.
We’ll come back to you.
I’ll give you all the details.
Yeah, okay, great.
Hey, thanks, Jason.
Oh, thank you, Seth Stewart.
We did it, man.
Hey, is that ex of yours still single?
Why?
’Cause your tits are gonna be
all up in her face.
What happened?
I booked it.
What? Yes! Yes!
-Oh, my God!
-I fucking booked it!
-Oh, can’t do that. You’re wet.
-Sorry, sorry.
I mean, I’m a good-luck charm, right?
You are. Honestly, this is all you.
Thank you. Can I get that in writing?
Can I get ten percent?
Ten percent, I-I--
I don’t even know what to say.
-We have to celebrate.
-Let’s fucking celebrate.
Let’s put these back.
[Andrea] You are not thinking straight,
and I get that,
I take responsibility for that.
This is a clusterfuck.
It doesn’t make any sense.
It doesn’t-- It doesn’t make any sense.
Look, just take a breath.
It’s me you’re talking to right now.
I’m not trying to fuck with you.
-What are you writing?
-Don’t worry about it.
Oh, God. I just--
I need-- I need--
I need you to be clear with me, please?
Please.
Like, you want to be with me,
then you don’t wanna be with me,
and then you’re proud of me,
then I’m ridiculous, and then--
No, you’re not.
What’s going on?
What is going on right now?
I’m sorry, okay?
The last thing
that I wanted to do was this.
I don’t want to upset you.
I don't wanna give you mixed signals.
I feel like since the divorce
and-- and Dad dying,
you know, I’m--
I’m pretty spun out right now.
But I can’t stop asking myself
these what-if questions.
You know, like what-- what if I--
What if I spent more time with my dad?
What if I was better about helping you?
Did I abandon you when you needed me?
I know that my whole life
I’m very quick to react,
and I'm-- I’m starting to wonder
if that’s a pretty bad thing,
you know, because now I’m--
I feel pretty alone,
and I'm-- I’m thinking about you,
and-- and what if I made a mistake?
Were we too quick to divorce?
Do you really mean that?
[crying] I don’t know.
I’m really sorry. Um, I have to go.
-Don’t go.
-It's okay.
[Jeremy coughs]
-Oh!
-[Amber] Wow.
-Whoo!
-[Amber laughs]
-Smooth.
-There you go.
-Do not overflow.
-There you go.
To Picking Daisy.
[chuckles] To Picking Daisy.
[upbeat music plays]
That’s perfect.
That's nice.
So, you-- you have to tell me more
about this little trip
to Africa for a semester.
Like, were you gone
for a whole year?
That's right, I was, yeah.
I volunteered for a whole year.
And we were down in Tanzania.
-Wow.
-A little village called Obivolas.
And we spent the year
playing with the kids
and teaching them English and, um
Those kids must have thought
you were like a superhero.
-Nah.
-You were like an Avenger.
Just, like, came out of the sky.
-Thank you.
-I don’t know, like,
what the biggest
fucking award is in the world,
but that’s what your dad deserves
for raising you.
I mean, your empathy for people
is so genuine and beautiful.
You’re an empath.
You’re a professional empath.
You also give back.
You provide entertainment
to people around the world,
and you, you know,
also provide a form of escapism,
which we all need.
And now you get to bless us
with your rock-hard abs.
[laughs]
Hopefully for ten episodes.
-I appreciate that.
-You’re really talented.
I’ve been wanting to do that all day.
-Whoo!
-Sorry.
Uh
Um, strawberry?
[electronic music playing]
[door closes]
-[Isabella] Hello!
-Oh, no.
Yeah, just in here.
[Isabella] I have got
some incredibly exciting news,
and it has taken everything
in me not to call you.
-Oh, what are you making?
-Uh, not sure.
I think I’ll just make some tea.
I’m not sure.
-Amazing.
-Boiling some water.
Well, I did it.
I sacked up, I called Linda.
And I pitched about directing.
And not only was Linda
super excited about it,
she’s given me episode three,
which is my favorite episode.
And before that, she rang to let me know
that they are offering
the series regular to Seth,
which means that I’m gonna be directing,
he’s gonna be on the show,
and I’m so excited!
How good’s that?
That’s amazing.
[exhales]
[crying] I’m so happy for you, man.
What’s wrong?
I fucking blew it today with Jeremy.
No!
And he left, and he was so upset,
and I just left him in a state,
and it’s just the last thing
I wanted to do.
I’m so sick of being such a mess.
Oh, my God, come here!
I’m so sorry!
-Sorry I'm so crap.
-No, no, no.
You just gotta cry it out.
Hi, Tammy. Um, Jeremy Davis here.
Your friends just wanted me
to wish you a happy birthday.
Um, here it goes.
Happy birthday to you ♪
Happy birthday ♪
Fuck me.
Today.
[sighs]
Happy birthday ♪
[dramatic music plays]
[seagull squawking]
What are you doing?
Just saying good morning.
Can you-- I’m sorry, can you stop?
Yeah.
All right.
Is everything okay?
Well
I’m actually--
I’m separated
from my husband at the moment,
and I think after last night
it just made me realize
that I-I-I wanna try
and work things out with him.
-So
-Did you, um, mention this?
You know, you didn’t
mention this yesterday, no.
No, and I--
I mentioned that, um,
I am working through some stuff,
which I am.
-Right.
-I didn’t mention my husband,
and I totally own up to that.
Really sorry.
Oh, uh, you know,
you don’t have to say you’re sorry.
Well, yeah, maybe a little sorry
because the minor detail
would have been nice to know.
I mean, guys do this to girls
all the time, right?
-Do we?
-Well, yeah.
I mean, when a couple’s together
for a long time,
like my husband and I,
you know, before we had kids,
we just wanted to make sure
that we’re the right--
People for each other.
-Yeah, exactly.
-Yeah, yeah.
-See? You get it.
-I get it-- I get it.
Listen, now you know.
Uh, thank you for being
so cool about this.
No, it’s fine. Yeah.
I think you’re a really great guy.
Oh, thank you.
And I know you’re gonna find
your forever person.
-Think so?
-Yeah.
Cool, yeah.
All right, well, I’m all packed up,
and, um, checkout’s 11 a.m.
But if you need more time,
then just let me know
and I’ll-- I'll message the host.
Oh, okay.
-That’s nice of you. Thank you.
Okay. Yeah, of course.
And if you can just pull the sheets
and just start the dishwasher,
that would really help me out.
So you want me to strip the bed?
-Yes, please.
-And then, just--
okay, just, start the dishwasher?
-Yeah.
-Yeah, that’s easy. I got you.
Look, it was so nice meeting you,
and you’re gonna crush it.
-Oh, thank you.
-Yeah.
-Oh, yeah.
-See you on the silver screen.
-Okay, bye, Seth.
-Bye.
Bye!

[keypad clacking]
[over cell phone] I am eternal ♪
[laughs]
Holy shit!
[laughing]
I’m Alexis. Can I have a photo?
-Um
-Can we do a photo?
Oh, my God, let’s do a photo.
No one’s gonna believe this.
Actually, I would prefer not to do one.
Excuse me, I-- Not right now.
Please, uh, your breath.
-Um
-Yes.
You smell like liquor.
You’re so cute.
What is this about?
-Um, I'm sorry. I'm--
-What’s this? What’s under here?
-Excuse me. Excuse me, ma’am.
-[laughing] Come on.
-I’m sorry, I’m--
-Come on, we’ll have fun.
-my space
-You’re a fucking douche!
What’s your problem?
-[hesitates]
-You don’t like women?
I'm-- I’m waiting for a ride.
-Be Damian. Be Damian.
-Honestly, I’m begging.
Be Damian!
What the fuck, man?
Be nice to your fans.
I watched every one
of your fucking episodes.
All right, all right. I’ll leave you.
I’ll leave you to it.
Suck a vampire dick!

[knocking on door]
[sighs]
Oh, shit.
-What did I do?
-I knew I recognized the name on the box.
You didn’t do anything. That’s the old me.
-You’re not here to serve me?
-No.
You promise?
I’m just here to deliver a box.
-Okay.
-I’m sorry for lying to you.
I hated lying to people,
so I changed professions.
That’s-- Yeah, that’s water
under the bridge, man.
How’d the divorce go?
It-- It went-- Yeah, it’s going, so
-Oh. Okay.
-Is that for me, or--
Yeah. Uh, do you mind,
can I get a picture?
Sure, okay. Sure.
-I appreciate that.
-All right. Okay.
Oh, I see you’re gonna
take it now, all right.
-[laughs]
-All right.
[indistinct]
Yeah.
Hey, man, thank you.
Thank you, I appreciate that.
Yeah. No problem.
My sister, she would be pissed
'cause I didn’t get
a picture last time, so
Does she have a birthday coming up, or--
Yeah, next month.
-Find me on Cameo.
-Will do.
-Yeah. Okay.
-All right. Thank you.
-Yeah, thank you.
-Have a good one, brother.
[Jeremy] Okay.
[vacuum whirring]
[percussive jazz playing]
[debris rattling]
Hello! Don’t mind me.
Hello over there!
Good morning!
Can I help you?
-[screams] What?
-Oh, my God!
Jesus, Izzy, you scared
the shit out of me.
Well, what-- what are you doing?
Why are you cleaning
like you’re in trouble with the law?
I’m just cleaning
because Jeremy’s coming over
and I’m gonna pitch him
the eternal convention, okay?
Oh. Have you spoken to Seth?
No, I’m gonna speak to Jeremy first,
and then I’m gonna speak to Seth
to make sure Jeremy’s in first.
You’re trying to get back with Jeremy.
-[scoffs]
-Mm-hmm.
-Okay.
-Mm-hmm.
The cleaning, the planning.
This screams you trying to impress a guy,
and I just feel like maybe--
Why would I have been hanging out
with Michael then, huh?
Oh, Michael. I forgot.
So you guys are sleeping together?
-No.
-But you’re-- you're kissing.
You’re macking on?
Well, we kiss every day at work, so
You know what I mean.
Like a "kiss" kiss.
Just because you’re trying
to bonk Seth again
doesn’t actually mean
I’m trying to get back together
with Jeremy.
I’m not trying to bonk anyone, actually.
-No?
-No.
I’m trying to finish this spec shot list
so that I can send it to my showrunner
when I pitch for a director’s slot.
How have you already
not done that, bro?
Because I need a lot
of preparation before I do that.
It’s your show. Picking Daisy.
You’re Daisy. You’re good.
I-I have to prove that I know
what I’m talking about,
and that I’m learned,
and that I’ve got something to give.
Christ, mate,
you’re overthinking it, okay?
You don’t like asking for things.
That’s your biggest problem.
-[sighs]
-Last week
you drank a frothed milk
instead of the cortado
that you ordered.
-I actually quite like a frothed milk.
-Oh, come on.
Can you just sack up
and own your power, bitch?
I’m serious, man.
These slots, they fill up fast.
You don’t want to miss the boat.
And please, Izzy,
if you’re gonna eat pita chips
in the living room,
could you put
a throw down on the couch?
Because your greasy little paws
get all over the couch covers,
and it costs a fucking arm and a leg
to get them cleaned.
I’m gonna fucking kill you.
-Excuse me?
-I said I’m gonna fucking kill you.
My house, my rules.
[vacuum whirs]
-[yells]
-Oh, God! Okay, sorry!
[indistinct shouting]
[upbeat music plays]
[strains]
[grunting]
Oh!
[grunting]
Oh!
Bitch.
Ah!
Fuck!
Damn it.
[exhales]
[sighs]
[exhales]
I feel frustrated.
So, what are you doin' when you’re not
chasing actors down in a parking lot?
[clears throat] Well played, sir.
Um, I’m actually a creative director
for a health and wellness brand.
-Oh, cool.
-It’s called
MindBodyBlissfulness.com.
-I’m gonna forget that.
-Yeah.
-But I’ll ask you it later.
-No worries. I’ll text it to you.
-Oh, cool.
-You know, I joined
because it started off
as this great, like, newsletter,
daily meditations, all that stuff.
And it’s also an e-commerce,
so we sell everything
from crystals to tarot cards
to vitamins, and I-- I hate myself.
-Why, what’s--
-I’m pushing vitamins
on social media platforms.
It’s doing exactly the opposite
of what I wanted to do.
Well, aren’t vitamins good for people?
No, it’s all bullshit.
-The vitamin B?
-All of them.
Doesn’t do anything.
-D?
-No. Get more from dick.
[laughs] Wow.
Um, it’s actually very refreshing
to hear that from you.
Don’t you just feel like sometimes
society makes us believe
that if we follow a certain path
that it leads to happiness?
But what if it doesn’t?
I just feel like I’m at a crossroads
with all of my life choices.
I just felt like everything was stale.
I needed to shake things up.
And that’s why I-I moved to L.A.
with my sister for two months.
Well, I-I think that’s really smart
to embrace that.
I think most people can’t do that.
I feel like the world needs more Ambers
who are brave enough
to actually take a pause in life
and-- and think about forging a new path.
I think that takes a lot of guts.
Thank you.
-You’re welcome.
-Yeah.
So what have you been workin' on, man?
Oh, um, right now,
it’s kind of the, um,
anger management stuff.
-Just working through that.
-Oh. Yeah?
Punch any holes in the wall recently?
Uh, I did-- I did, yeah,
smash up a ring light.
-[laughs]
-No, but it’s actually--
It’s been really good.
I feel a lot of the stuff
that I’ve been learning with sobriety
has helped me
through that stuff, you know.
Finding solutions,
focusing on the solutions,
reaching out to my family,
communicating, you know?
Like that kind of stuff.
-I’m proud of you, man.
-Thank you.
Those tools are gonna come in handy
when you get that job.
-When you start back working.
-Yeah.
Well, hey, Jeremy,
the reason I asked you
to come out here today is, uh
I, um
I relapsed.
Oh.
-Um, are you--
-Yeah.
Are you okay?
Yeah, man. I fucked up.
Sorry, man.
But it’s not that big of a deal, right?
Like, this kind of thing happens
all the time.
Isn’t that what they say?
Like, it takes a few goes.
No, no, no.
It’s a big fucking deal.
-Oh.
-All right.
Sure, statistically speaking,
relapses are commonplace.
But when they happen,
you got to stop everything.
You gotta go back and figure out
what the hell went wrong
so it doesn’t happen again.
You gotta--
You gotta go all the way back?
Step one.
That seems a little bit excessive,
don’t you think?
Couldn’t you, like, start
from step six or seven?
No, man. Hey, there’s no half measures.
-Right.
-So, unfortunately,
what this means is,
I can’t be your sponsor anymore.
Okay. Um, that sucks.
What I do have for you
is a list of names and numbers.
Great guys who are gonna make
great sponsors.
[Jeremy sighs] I--
I like you, Tony. I like this.
-Oh, man.
-This is what I want for you, man.
I want you to get that job.
Somethin' steady at least, okay?
Mm.
And be of service.
It helps you to help others.
Remember that.
Be of service. Okay.
Hey, could I--
Could I help you?
Help me with?
Could I be your sponsor?
[laughs]
No, man. I've-- I’ve got my own sponsor.
It doesn’t work.
-Okay.
-Thank you, though, but
For sure.
-no.
-Cool.
[Seth] What about a cruise?
[Amber] I love boats, but no.
It’s like living on a giant petri dish.
-I’m just stuck.
-[laughs]
Maybe another 75 years.
Yeah, just wheel me on.
-Bumping walkers on there.
-[laughs]
I’ve always wanted to live on a boat.
My mom loved boats.
Well, that’s what my-- my dad tells me.
Oh, well, what happened to your mom?
Um, she passed away when I was seven.
-Oh, shit.
-Breast cancer.
-Yeah.
-[sighs]
Fuck. I’m sorry.
No, it’s okay, I was-- I was too young
to really remember,
but she had a really beautiful smile.
And whenever my dad
talks about her, he just--
He lights up.
Hmm.
He’s such a good dad.
I-I can’t even imagine
what it’s like being a single dad.
Like--
[scoffs] No way.
-No. It’s so hard.
-Mm.
What about you?
Any girlfriends currently?
Uh, no.
I’ve-- I've had a couple
of failed relationships.
Haven’t we all?
You know, it feels like
you should know more
about relationships when you get older,
but I’m starting to feel like
I know less.
-Ah, yes.
-[laughs] So,
I don’t want to rush and settle,
but, uh, I know the clock
is definitely ticking, so
Yeah, well, you don’t need
to say stuff like that.
It's, uh-- It just sounds
a little desperate,
and women can sniff that out a mile away.
[laughs]
Fair point. Touché.
Well, what about you?
What’s your dating situation?
Not really focused on that.
-Hmm.
-I feel like there’s a lot of things
I need to figure out for myself.
Well, do you plan on--
Should we go on a kayak ride?
[Seth] Uh, right now?
-You can swim, right?
-Yeah.
We’re good. We don’t need life vests.
Let’s try it. Come on.
I-I don’t know if we can just take those.
Oh, come on,
we’re just gonna borrow it.
Isn’t that like grand theft?
It’ll be a quick ride. Let’s go.
[laughs] Okay.
What if we get caught?
[Amber] It’s perfect.
-Everything’s here.
-[Seth] Uh-oh.
And just chuck it.
-One, two, three.
-Are you-- I don’t--
[cheerful music plays]
[doorbell rings]
[sighs]
-Hi!
-Hey, how are you?
-Good. How are you?
-Oh, good.
-You got here fast.
-Did I?
-Yeah.
-Oh.
Well, it’s a beautiful day. Come on in.
Alrighty, um
Okay, so, meeting open.
So here is what I have for you.
But before you get into it,
just know that this offer
includes first-class flights,
five-star accommodation
and double per diem.
What is that?
Well, I mean it’s--
You know what per diem is.
It’s just double.
It’s just very nice little pocket money.
This is Fantasy Con 7.
Wait this-- this is
an Eternal convention.
Well, I mean, so it’s not
an Eternal convention,
but it’s a convention
for all vampire-based shows.
-I-I know what Fang Fantasy is.
-Oh, you do?
Yeah, I tried to get us
to go to Fang Fantasy 6, remember?
This is gonna be huge. You realize that?
Like, this would be the first time
that all three of us
have gotten together in public
since the show ended.
It’s about time, right?
How did this happen?
Well, you know, I just--
I kind of got the wheels
in motion, and um--
And-- And it was-- You know what?
It was actually--
It was kind of a coincidence.
-Wait, so you--
-What?
You did this?
I-- Well, I mean,
I-I didn’t arrange it all,
but yeah, I-I just reached out to my reps
and just sort of mentioned
that, you know,
we-- we could be into it, so
Do we split this, or is this--
No, no, so everything in that folder--
See? "Jeremy." That one’s all for you.
Everything in there.
So that would be for each of us.
[laughs softly]
So are you in?
-Am I in?
-Mm-hmm.
I would do this for free.
-Yay!
-This is a dream come true.
I can’t believe
this is happening right now.
Thank you, thank you for this.
Don’t thank me.
I-- I’m just so glad
you’re excited about it.
[Jeremy] Oh, I mean,
I’ve always wanted to go to Orlando.
Yeah. Hi!
-Hey.
-Hi.
You, uh
You forgot this last night.
Oh, tha-- thank you.
Come-- Come in, come in.
I-I was-- I was just, um
running Jeremy through the--
the convention thing that--
Um, you know how we talked about it?
Oh, he-- he knows about this?
Yeah, Michael had some
really helpful insight
on the whole world because, you know,
I-I don’t know much about it, so
Super-helpful Michael.
[Andrea] No, that’s--
No, it’s just-- Whoa, hey! Hey!
Don’t even think about it, man!
Don’t even think about it!
-I was going for my journal.
-Your what?
My journal. It’s right there
on the coffee table.
Oh, man.
-[groans]
-Jesus, what the fuck, man?
-[Michael] I thought he was--
-What are you doing?
I thought you were
comin' at me, man.
-I thought you were-- I thought--
-Comin' at you?
I don’t even know that karate move.
It’s not karate, it’s judo!
God! [sighs] This is--
-Oh, my God.
-I-I--
I’m sorry. I’m sorry.
I didn’t mean
This is weird
that I’m even here right now.
-No, it’s not. It’s really--
-This is-- No, uh, listen,
I like-- I like you so much.
I like you so much.
This is my friend.
But I think you guys still have
some things to figure out.
And this is starting
to feel like a mistake.
So I’m gonna go.
I’m sorry.
[Michael] I’m sorry
for throwing you on the couch.
That was weird.
Goodbye.
[upbeat music playing]
[Isabella] You’re prepared.
You deserve this.
You’ve worked.
They’re not gonna be insulted.
No, they’re gonna be flattered.
They’re not gonna laugh at you.
You are--
You’re-- You’re good. You’re ready.
You are absolutely fine.
[automated voice] Call from Linda.
Picking Daisy AP, answer.
Hello. Um, hi. How’s it going?
[Linda over phone]
Hey, sorry to bother you.
Do you have a minute?
Uh, yeah. Abs--
Absolutely. Um, what’s up?
So we’ve narrowed down the candidate
for the new series regular role,
and we wanted to see
if you were still in touch with Seth?
Seth Stewart? Yeah. Yeah.
Did that end badly?
Uh, no, no, no, no.
Um, I mean, we-- We had
a falling out as people do,
but that wasn’t even
my last falling out, so
Umm, no, no, no, we’re good.
We’ve moved on.
So you’re single
and you’re friends with Seth.
Yeah. Um, yes.
But, I mean, it would be great
to work with Seth
because I think he’s very talented
and we’ve got great chemistry.
Oh, so you wanna
get back together with him.
[laughs]
No, no, no.
I-I-I didn’t say that. I--
Well, you didn’t have to.
[laughs nervously]
I’m fucking with you!
-[both laugh]
-This is super.
We can have a lot of fun with this.
Okay, I’ll update when it’s a done deal.
-Take care, honey.
-Okay. Sorry, Linda, um,
if you’re not immediately busy
and you’re not, like, rushing
to another call,
I was just wondering and being
very mindful of the fact
that I don’t wanna waste your time.
I just wanted to see
if, um, you were potentially open
to chat about the possibility
of me directing
one episode next season?

Oh, well, that’s my agent.
Here you can use my pants to dry off.

-I’m just playing.
-Go for it. Go.
-Okay.
Here.
[laughs] Ah!
Hello?
Seth fucking Stewart. I don’t believe it.
Well, kind of I do, but also, I don’t.
W-What’s goin' on?
I’m talking to the newest
cast member of Picking Daisy.
You did it, boy. Congrats!
Fuck me, are you serious?
[Jason laughs]
Series fucking regular!
[grunts]
Oh, man, I hope you stocked up
on pomegranates and sweet potatoes
because your ass is gonna be shirtless
for ten episodes of comedy gold!
Wait, wait, what?
I’m just kidding, man, all right?
Look, I’m just so proud of you.
You deserve it, all right?
I’m gonna circle up
with the lawyers, man.
We’ll come back to you.
I’ll give you all the details.
Yeah, okay, great.
Hey, thanks, Jason.
Oh, thank you, Seth Stewart.
We did it, man.
Hey, is that ex of yours still single?
Why?
’Cause your tits are gonna be
all up in her face.
What happened?
I booked it.
What? Yes! Yes!
-Oh, my God!
-I fucking booked it!
-Oh, can’t do that. You’re wet.
-Sorry, sorry.
I mean, I’m a good-luck charm, right?
You are. Honestly, this is all you.
Thank you. Can I get that in writing?
Can I get ten percent?
Ten percent, I-I--
I don’t even know what to say.
-We have to celebrate.
-Let’s fucking celebrate.
Let’s put these back.
[Andrea] You are not thinking straight,
and I get that,
I take responsibility for that.
This is a clusterfuck.
It doesn’t make any sense.
It doesn’t-- It doesn’t make any sense.
Look, just take a breath.
It’s me you’re talking to right now.
I’m not trying to fuck with you.
-What are you writing?
-Don’t worry about it.
Oh, God. I just--
I need-- I need--
I need you to be clear with me, please?
Please.
Like, you want to be with me,
then you don’t wanna be with me,
and then you’re proud of me,
then I’m ridiculous, and then--
No, you’re not.
What’s going on?
What is going on right now?
I’m sorry, okay?
The last thing
that I wanted to do was this.
I don’t want to upset you.
I don't wanna give you mixed signals.
I feel like since the divorce
and-- and Dad dying,
you know, I’m--
I’m pretty spun out right now.
But I can’t stop asking myself
these what-if questions.
You know, like what-- what if I--
What if I spent more time with my dad?
What if I was better about helping you?
Did I abandon you when you needed me?
I know that my whole life
I’m very quick to react,
and I'm-- I’m starting to wonder
if that’s a pretty bad thing,
you know, because now I’m--
I feel pretty alone,
and I'm-- I’m thinking about you,
and-- and what if I made a mistake?
Were we too quick to divorce?
Do you really mean that?
[crying] I don’t know.
I’m really sorry. Um, I have to go.
-Don’t go.
-It's okay.
[Jeremy coughs]
-Oh!
-[Amber] Wow.
-Whoo!
-[Amber laughs]
-Smooth.
-There you go.
-Do not overflow.
-There you go.
To Picking Daisy.
[chuckles] To Picking Daisy.
[upbeat music plays]
That’s perfect.
That's nice.
So, you-- you have to tell me more
about this little trip
to Africa for a semester.
Like, were you gone
for a whole year?
That's right, I was, yeah.
I volunteered for a whole year.
And we were down in Tanzania.
-Wow.
-A little village called Obivolas.
And we spent the year
playing with the kids
and teaching them English and, um
Those kids must have thought
you were like a superhero.
-Nah.
-You were like an Avenger.
Just, like, came out of the sky.
-Thank you.
-I don’t know, like,
what the biggest
fucking award is in the world,
but that’s what your dad deserves
for raising you.
I mean, your empathy for people
is so genuine and beautiful.
You’re an empath.
You’re a professional empath.
You also give back.
You provide entertainment
to people around the world,
and you, you know,
also provide a form of escapism,
which we all need.
And now you get to bless us
with your rock-hard abs.
[laughs]
Hopefully for ten episodes.
-I appreciate that.
-You’re really talented.
I’ve been wanting to do that all day.
-Whoo!
-Sorry.
Uh
Um, strawberry?
[electronic music playing]
[door closes]
-[Isabella] Hello!
-Oh, no.
Yeah, just in here.
[Isabella] I have got
some incredibly exciting news,
and it has taken everything
in me not to call you.
-Oh, what are you making?
-Uh, not sure.
I think I’ll just make some tea.
I’m not sure.
-Amazing.
-Boiling some water.
Well, I did it.
I sacked up, I called Linda.
And I pitched about directing.
And not only was Linda
super excited about it,
she’s given me episode three,
which is my favorite episode.
And before that, she rang to let me know
that they are offering
the series regular to Seth,
which means that I’m gonna be directing,
he’s gonna be on the show,
and I’m so excited!
How good’s that?
That’s amazing.
[exhales]
[crying] I’m so happy for you, man.
What’s wrong?
I fucking blew it today with Jeremy.
No!
And he left, and he was so upset,
and I just left him in a state,
and it’s just the last thing
I wanted to do.
I’m so sick of being such a mess.
Oh, my God, come here!
I’m so sorry!
-Sorry I'm so crap.
-No, no, no.
You just gotta cry it out.
Hi, Tammy. Um, Jeremy Davis here.
Your friends just wanted me
to wish you a happy birthday.
Um, here it goes.
Happy birthday to you ♪
Happy birthday ♪
Fuck me.
Today.
[sighs]
Happy birthday ♪
[dramatic music plays]
[seagull squawking]
What are you doing?
Just saying good morning.
Can you-- I’m sorry, can you stop?
Yeah.
All right.
Is everything okay?
Well
I’m actually--
I’m separated
from my husband at the moment,
and I think after last night
it just made me realize
that I-I-I wanna try
and work things out with him.
-So
-Did you, um, mention this?
You know, you didn’t
mention this yesterday, no.
No, and I--
I mentioned that, um,
I am working through some stuff,
which I am.
-Right.
-I didn’t mention my husband,
and I totally own up to that.
Really sorry.
Oh, uh, you know,
you don’t have to say you’re sorry.
Well, yeah, maybe a little sorry
because the minor detail
would have been nice to know.
I mean, guys do this to girls
all the time, right?
-Do we?
-Well, yeah.
I mean, when a couple’s together
for a long time,
like my husband and I,
you know, before we had kids,
we just wanted to make sure
that we’re the right--
People for each other.
-Yeah, exactly.
-Yeah, yeah.
-See? You get it.
-I get it-- I get it.
Listen, now you know.
Uh, thank you for being
so cool about this.
No, it’s fine. Yeah.
I think you’re a really great guy.
Oh, thank you.
And I know you’re gonna find
your forever person.
-Think so?
-Yeah.
Cool, yeah.
All right, well, I’m all packed up,
and, um, checkout’s 11 a.m.
But if you need more time,
then just let me know
and I’ll-- I'll message the host.
Oh, okay.
-That’s nice of you. Thank you.
Okay. Yeah, of course.
And if you can just pull the sheets
and just start the dishwasher,
that would really help me out.
So you want me to strip the bed?
-Yes, please.
-And then, just--
okay, just, start the dishwasher?
-Yeah.
-Yeah, that’s easy. I got you.
Look, it was so nice meeting you,
and you’re gonna crush it.
-Oh, thank you.
