[AMARA] Previously on Get Shorty...
Max Kisbye would be perfect for this lead.
[MAN] He's, um, relapsed.
[KISBYE] I would be forced; to correct you, sir!
As of today, we have 30 days to pay our supplier.
[ED] His name is Moises; He's with LA.
You did good.
You're Mormon, so no sex before marriage.
So, my idea, we get married, and pretend it never happened.
This is the divorce papers?
This was the safest arrangement.
You're gonna take her away from me.
I've actually been reading this book.
It's about getting lost and finding your way out.
It's called Wylderness.
Are you saying I'm lost?
What you pulled off right there, that's a Christmas miracle.
- Yeah? - You took a one,
and you turned it into a solid five.
Out of fucking 10?
- We can sell it? - Are you kidding?
But it's not...
good.
You know what I'm excited about? Our film.
You're off the movie.

[SIGHS]
- [LINE RINGING] - [GLADYS] Hey, this is Gladys.
Hey, hey, hey. Listen. I need you to find me Max Kisbye's manager.
What's wrong?
I got an e-mail saying that Kisbye isn't coming to the premiere.
It's gonna look like he doesn't believe in the movie,
which he probably doesn't,
but... but fuck him! He needs to come.
Yeah, I'll try right now.
Yeah. Come on. We need pres ;we need photos.
I got a buyer bringing his wife specifically to meet Max Kisbye.
If we don't sell this weekend; we may never sell.;
[APPLAUSE]
What's that in the background?
[APPLAUSE]
Yeah, I'm jumping off to call.
Oh... Please.
[SIGHS]
- Everything okay? - Just work.
[BREATHES DEEPLY]
I can't believe you wore that.
You didn't want a wedding dress, that's fine.
You didn't say anything about my suit.
[DINGS]
- [GLADYS SIGHS] - [APPLAUSE]
- You got some place you need to be? - Yeah. Santa Barbara.
There's a lot to deal with before the premiere.
I thought that maybe we could hangout after this.
Well, maybe this weekend.
Gravity's booked us hotel rooms.
Honeymoon.
No.
[WHISPERING] Honeymoons are for married people.
The reason I agreed to this was so we can date.
- In Santa Barbara, can we go on a date? - Yeah.
- [APPLAUSE] - [DINGS]
Oh, that's... That's our number.
[LOUIS] Marriage license.
Marriage is a serious commitment
founded on the eternal bond between
two people who love each other dearly.
Do you, Louis Phillip Darnell and Gladys Adele Parrish,
swear you are entering into this contract of your own free will?
Yes, I do.
Yeah, sure.
Mr. Darnell, if you would present the rings?
- Oh. - [WHISPERING] No. No. We said no rings.
No, but my grandma gave me these.
If we wear rings,
people are gonna know we're married.
And that's bad.
- Right? - Mmm-hmm.
So, no rings?
No.
By the power vested in me by the state of California,
I now pronounce you married. You may kiss your bride.
[GLADYS SIGHS] Mmm. Why not?
[APPLAUSE]
[SPANISH SONG PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]

You better get your own hotel room. I don't want to keep you awake.
- [GRUNTING] - [AMARA LAUGHS]
- I should probably get my dad a tux. - Like this?
No! No. No. No, no.
Uh, it's good! That's a good suit. It's just...
He's not as fashion-forward as you. Huh.
- [AMARA] Mmm. - [YAGO] Mmm-hmm.
Is he excited for the movie?
Excited? No.
- My dad hates anything made after '78. - [AMARA] Hmm.
Yeah. Although, this film might be different,
'cause he likes pretentious stuff.
Hafdis, he does all those shots like, uh...
Like the match-cut from the flying bird to the fluttering napkin.
- [CELL PHONE RINGING] - I don't know. Maybe we'll go for that,
but I'm not betting on it.
[AMARA] Hmm.
Hey, Ali. Yes. Thank you for calling me back.
I know. I know he's very busy, but... but...
Listen. His work in this film, it's fantastic.
[SIGHS] Okay. Okay. It's sink or swim for us here.
Please, please. Just keep the pressure on him, okay?
See what you can do?
Thank you.
[AMARA] There a problem?
Oh, no, no. Not really.
What is "sink or swim"?
Oh, that's... That's, uh...
That's Max Kisbye. He's little reluctant to do publicity tomorrow.
- That's all. - He don't want to go?
No, his manager's gonna talk to him.
It's gonna be fine.
Aw, that's a good look for you. Yeah.
Excuse me.

Huh. [CHUCKLES]
So, what can I do to help you guys?
[SIGHS] It's about the festival.
Right.
You're the one that everybody's coming to see. I mean, you're the star.
It would be so great
if you could just tomorrow and talk to the press.
I'm starting to shoot Turbo Overdrive next week.
This trainer's got me working 24/7.
To be honest with you, [SIGHS]
- I watched the cut. - Hmm?
It wasn't what I hoped.
- Really? - [PEPPER GROWLING]
It's not a reflec... Pepper! Shut up!
[PEPPER BARKING]
Wasn't a reflection on you. Your script, best part.
Oh.
Is there anything that I can say that would change your mind?
Sorry.
Well, that simplifies things.
Good. Well, thanks for stopping by.
You think this is funny?
I've been working with fake guns all day. I know the difference.
All right?
If there's still publicity to do after I finish Overdrive...

Hey! [SNAPS FINGERS] You with me, buddy? Okay.

There are people who want this movie to succeed.
And what you didn't know,

is that these people are part of an organization...

The studio.
Different kind of organization.
So, will you come tomorrow?
Yeah.
Great.
We're gonna get out of your hair.

You need a license for that.

I... I heard you the first time.
Lizzy,
if you want it, then you're gonna have to drive out here, and...
Because if I had my way, I would throw
everything into a fucking dumpster.
You know what? I'm gonna hang up right now.
Yes, I'm gonna hang up right now, because
I really don't like being screamed at.
Okay, bye.
[MILES] Hey.
Thanks for your...
for your assistance last night.
Do you like the tuyo?
It's delicious.
You know, I don't usually like my breakfast staring back at me,
but those little fish are pretty tasty.
You looked a little, um, rough last night.
Was that way before the accident.
Funny.
[CHUCKLES]
I think I, uh, drove past your car,
or what was left of it this morning.
So you just got out, walked down the road, and got a room?
What's your excuse?
Uh, personal reasons.
This place, though. [EXCLAIMS]
It's weird.
I love it.
Beds on the floor, empty pool...
Disco ball in the breakfast room.
There's a reason for that.
Actually, what time is it?

those contain your schedules for the weekend.
Your VIP lanyards will get you into special events and after-parties.
Do I get one, too?
You get a guest pass, those are in the packets.
Whatever.
Um, excuse me, I'm gonna need two extra seats

Mmm-hmm. My dad.
Your dad is Giustino Morangiello?

That's amazing. Do you think you could get him on a panel or...
- Oh... - Mr. Moreweather, sir, hello!
David, hey. Good to see you. You ready for the big weekend?
A bit nervous, to be honest.
Oh. There's nothing to be nervous about.
This is David Oumou, plays Gideon Treadwell.
Okay. Admiral's Mistress...
Uh, sorry. I'm not seeing you.
I'm the black one.
Oh, there you are. Page three. [CHUCKLES]
- Thank you. - Yeah.
- Page three today, page one tomorrow. - [CHUCKLES]
Almost didn't make it. My manager didn't like the idea.
Of you going to your own premiere?
Oh, no, my manager from Subway.
I had to take some work on the side, just until the movie hits.
- Hmm. - [PEOPLE CLAMORING]
Oh. Oh, look at this.
See? That's Kisbye.

I'm David Oumou, and I play Gideon Treadwell in The Admiral's Mistress.
[DANIELLE] How do you feel about premiering...
Is Miles with you?
Uh, he definitely wants to be here,
but I'm afraid he's just not gonna make it.

Your name and the film you're here to support?
Max. Sorry, Max Kisbye.
Admiral's Mistress.
Naval battles and sword fights in the name of love.
Was this an intense role for you?
Sorry, can you say that one more time?
What's wrong with him?
I told you, he's acting weird.
[YAGO] 'Cause he's high.
Oh, no. He just got out of rehab.
Well, he's on something now.
[KISBYE] Hmm, um...
Maybe you went too hard on him yesterday. [CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
What? What happened yesterday?
He means when you call the agent.
The buyers are expecting him on the red carpet at 6:00.
Well, can he sober up by then?
Unless he takes more of... whatever it is.
Hey, David, David.
You and Max, you're buddies, right? 'Cause he seems kinda out of it.
- I wasn't gonna say anything. - Yeah, I know, maybe, um...
You know, stay with him until the red carpet, keep an eye on him?
Mm, my pleasure.
Just try and not let him out of your sight. Okay?
Sure.
Dad?
I want to get out.

Hey, I'm gonna go to the laundromat, you wanna come?
I was gonna spend the afternoon reading... Yeah, all right.
Oh, I did notice there were some films
playing this afternoon if you wanted to...
Had a long day yesterday, really took it out of me.
Just need to lie down, so I'm ready for tonight.
Can't argue with that.
Um, I guess I'll swing by before the red carpet then?
Can't wait.
[KNOCKING AT DOOR]
Fuck.
Somebody from the festival told me your screening's sold out.
[RICK] Hmm.
Did you get us seats on the aisle?
Yeah, I remembered.
Think you're gonna be impressed with this one, Dad.
It's not like my other stuff.
- No? - No, it's a serious period flick,
it's set in the Napoleonic Wars.
And it's written by this out-of-nowhere talent, Louis Darnell.
We got the same fight choreographer as Master and Commander.
You have my pill?
I saw the trailer online, it looks exciting. The part on the ships...
The ocean battle, yeah. You should have
seen the tank that we shot that in.
What does a guy have to do around here to get a refill?
All right, well, you just watch the film. You'll see.
[EXHALES]

Turn it off.
See... Now you wide awake.

Check the hallway.

Just in the elevators.
- You sure? - No.
That was two shots. Somebody has got to have heard that.
Hey. No one in the hall.
Aw, man! My suit!
This was a suicide.
Slug in the leg?
They'll think he had a gun, and the first shot was a mistake.
It's what fucking happened.
Got a better idea?
Give me the pistol.
[ED] Wipe everything down.
You can ask me why I set my sink on fire.
Thought hadn't crossed my mind.
[WASHING MACHINE WHIRRING]
My family has this house...
Or, had... this house, and it's fallen on me to clean it out.
And I saw some photos...
Saw some photos of some shit that I'd rather not remember.
I am the least fucked-up person in my family,
so I feel like I deserve some credit for that.
Credit given.
What were you running from?
I wasn't running.
You didn't pack a bag. You got in the car, just started driving?
Sounds like denial to me.
- I wasn't. - Okay.
When I first got to LA, I knew what I wanted.
I wanted to make a movie.
I wanted to salvage what was left of my marriage.
And I wanted to get closer to my kid.
And?
Marriage is done.
Kid... She's seeing a shrink,
so she can tell someone how fucked-up her dad is.
- And the movie? - The... [SIGHS]
It's desperately mediocre.
I'm skipping the premiere right now,
which is on in about 45 minutes.
So...
So what now?
I don't know.
But what do you want?
What do I want?
[SIGHS]
I get it. You want to wallow around in everything that's bad.
I'm not judging, 'cause I love doing that...
but there is a thing called chakra therapy...
Oh, man.
I knew it. I knew you were gonna bring this shit up.

Yeah.
Hi, Ed.
[ED SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]
- I am so sorry. - Huh?
Obviously, we should cancel the screening.
What? What's going on?
[SIGHS] Oh, Max was found in his room.
They're saying suicide.
Max Kisbye?
[SIGHS] I'm sorry.
Oh, Jesus.
We done here? Let's see this movie.
[SIGHS]
Still haven't learned the principles of fire safety, I see.
Take off your shirt and lie down.
Shirt off. Okay.
[SIGHS HEAVILY]
Repeat after me.
I am awake.
I am alive.
I'm open to change.
I am awake.
- I am alive. - Be serious.
What was the last part? I...
I am open to change.
This is your root chakra, for stability.
[MILES] Hmm.
Fire agate, on the sacral chakra to ignite passion.
If you want to cop a feel, you just have to ask.
If you don't make an effort, I can't help you.
Mmm-hmm. Okay.
This draws out negative energy.
Huh.
Rose quartz on your heart chakra,
to help you outrun who you were.
Turquoise, to find who you are now.
[INHALES DEEPLY]
Breathe with me.
- In. - [BOTH INHALE DEEPLY]
- And out. - [BOTH EXHALE DEEPLY]
I'm getting so tired, I can hardly keep my eyes open.
The crystals are working.
The last one, selenite.
Liquid light.
Very powerful.
So you can see the path forward.
Things you've lost are gone forever.
Everything else, everything that belongs to you,
that's yours, right in front of you.
All you have to do is claim it.
[MILES EXHALING DEEPLY]
[GLADYS] Yes, canceled.
We can try to, um, get you a screener but...
Yeah, okay. Thanks.
[SIGHS]
- I'm so sorry. - Crazy.
Poor Max.
And your first premiere.
Not to mention our date.
We'll make time in LA.
[SIGHS] This week is gonna be tough.
I'm really looking forward to it.
I swear.
You're so beautiful.
Am I allowed to say that?
You are.
- [CHUCKLES] - [CELL PHONE RINGING]
- Um, I'm sorry. [CHUCKLES] - Mmm-hmm.
Hey, this is Gladys.
Yeah, I'm afraid we had to cancel.
Yes. [SIGHS]
Is she angry?
[DOOR OPENS]
Tia, I don't know what you heard...
Do you love me?
Of course, I love you.
Why do you lie?
- What... - We had to sell this movie to pay back LA.
How we gonna do that now?
[BREATHING SHAKILY]
The guy went crazy on me, Tia.
Grabbed my gun, started screaming for help.
I didn't have a choice.
You tell her?
It was an accident.
_
So send me to Pahrump. I'll run the casino.
_
I never want to see you again.
Don't do that.
Don't do that, Tia, please.
_
You're lucky we are.
Only reason I don't kill you myself.
Tia.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
Please, Tia.
Come on.
Let's go.

Oh, good. He's here!
You made it.

Hi, Arvin. It's Miles from Room 18.
Did Jinny check out this morning?
Yes, I'm calling from her room.
No, I just... I just wanna know, do you know her last name?
I understand that, but I'm sure she wouldn't mind.
No? Okay, thanks anyway.
[WHISPERS] Fucking...
[WATER RUNNING]
[GRUNTS]
[LINE RINGING]
[RECEPTIONIST ON PHONE] Egeland Publishing.; Blake Addison's office.
Yeah, I'm calling about a novel you published.
Wylderness.
I'd like to know if the film rights are available.
Absolutely.; Can I get your name?
Miles Daly.
I'm a producer.
Hollywood, please.
Can you hold; just a moment, please?
Yes, I can.
[PEPPER YIPPING]
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good girl.
[DOORBELL RINGS]
- Hi. - Hi! Come in.
Just for a sec.
Oh, my God, what happened to your face?
Ah, another fender bender. Can you believe it?
Oh, no!
I'm okay.
Though probably uninsurable at this point.
Emma here?
- At Mikayla's. - Ah.
Divorce papers.
Signed and notarized.
Thank you.
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
This is strange.
No way around it.
Aside from the scratches, you look really rested.
[CHUCKLES]
I just had the most amazing weekend.
[CHUCKLES] Yeah, really got some clarity on things.
Think I found the next project I'm gonna do.
That's great!
Also, our situation...
- Yeah? - Yeah.
I realized that I don't like having to
schedule time with my own daughter,
and I hate that you're the one making the schedule, so...
I'm gonna agree to this divorce, but...
I'm not gonna give you custody.
Miles...
Don't do this.
I have been apologizing to you since the day we met, haven't I?
For work, for every little thing.
But that's done.
And if you want to go to war over our kid,
I will make it uglier than you can fucking imagine.
Hope it doesn't come to that.
Give Emma my love.
