Everyone Is Doing Great

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.

- -All right.

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.

Okay.

Hello! Don’t mind me.

Hello over there!

Good morning!

Can I help you?

- 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.

- -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.

- -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.

- -Oh, God! Okay, sorry!

Oh!

Oh!

Bitch.

Ah!

Fuck!

Damn it.

I feel frustrated.

So, what are you doin' when you’re not chasing actors down in a parking lot?

Well played, sir.

Um, I’m actually a creative director for a health and wellness brand.

-Oh, cool. -It’s called

-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.

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.

- -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.

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?

No, man. I've-- I’ve got my own sponsor.

It doesn’t work.

-Okay. -Thank you, though, but...

For sure.

-...no. -Cool.

What about a cruise?

I love boats, but no.

It’s like living on a giant petri dish.

-I’m just stuck. -

Maybe another 75 years.
