00:00:04,798 --> 00:00:06,300
Hello, this is Peter Gould.
2
00:00:06,466 --> 00:00:10,053
This is episode 303, "Sunk Costs."
3
00:00:10,220 --> 00:00:12,347
Melissa Bernstein, executive producer.
4
00:00:12,514 --> 00:00:15,392
Hi, Gennifer Hutchison,
writer and executive producer.
5
00:00:15,559 --> 00:00:17,144
John Shiban, director.
6
00:00:17,311 --> 00:00:18,729
Nina Jack, producer.
7
00:00:18,896 --> 00:00:20,814
Mark Johnson, executive producer.
8
00:00:21,565 --> 00:00:26,570
And this is this wonderful shoe teaser.
9
00:00:27,237 --> 00:00:29,865
Genny, what made you think
of doing a...?
10
00:00:30,032 --> 00:00:33,493
Why are we doing a teaser with
no dialogue with a bunch of trucks?
11
00:00:34,036 --> 00:00:36,538
We always really liked the idea
of doing these more...
12
00:00:36,705 --> 00:00:39,166
imagistic, you know,
mysterious teasers.
13
00:00:39,333 --> 00:00:41,627
We're always looking
for opportunities to do that.
14
00:00:41,793 --> 00:00:45,881
And this just seemed like
a really great one to kind of have this...
15
00:00:46,048 --> 00:00:50,010
flash-forward-y, you know,
mysterious teaser.
16
00:00:50,177 --> 00:00:52,888
And we started talking about
the shoe gag...
17
00:00:53,055 --> 00:00:55,891
and fell more and more in love
with it as we went.
18
00:00:56,058 --> 00:00:57,517
I love this shot.
19
00:00:57,684 --> 00:01:00,395
Whose idea was it
to put the camera up there?
20
00:01:00,562 --> 00:01:03,565
I'll take credit for that, thank you.
21
00:01:03,732 --> 00:01:06,109
You know, this location was...
22
00:01:06,276 --> 00:01:09,279
I was worried when I read the script.
It's a specific location...
23
00:01:09,446 --> 00:01:14,076
with a T intersection
and a hill where Mike could be.
24
00:01:14,243 --> 00:01:17,621
And when I got there, they said,
"We found something that might work."
25
00:01:17,788 --> 00:01:20,999
And it was just around the corner
from the studio, and it was perfect.
26
00:01:21,166 --> 00:01:23,877
It ended up being the easiest location
for the episode.
27
00:01:24,044 --> 00:01:26,505
We were tearing our hair out
when we were conceptualizing it.
28
00:01:26,672 --> 00:01:30,217
Like, "They're never gonna find this."
And then they did, immediately.
29
00:01:30,384 --> 00:01:34,638
Robin Sweet, our producer,
has developed a technique with me...
30
00:01:34,805 --> 00:01:37,891
where she shows me the location
and I fall in love with it.
31
00:01:38,058 --> 00:01:40,811
I'm always worried,
"Is this a long drive from the studio?"
32
00:01:40,978 --> 00:01:43,647
There's always laughter
from Albuquerque.
33
00:01:45,983 --> 00:01:47,985
Because it's very close.
34
00:01:56,868 --> 00:02:00,163
And, of course, the titles
each season change a little bit.
35
00:02:00,330 --> 00:02:03,333
See if you can figure out
what's changed.
36
00:02:07,462 --> 00:02:09,464
And here we pick up...
37
00:02:09,631 --> 00:02:13,260
basically where Vince left off...
38
00:02:13,427 --> 00:02:15,971
in episode two.
39
00:02:16,138 --> 00:02:19,141
What was that like,
that handoff between you guys?
40
00:02:19,308 --> 00:02:21,560
Well, luckily Vince was still shooting.
41
00:02:21,727 --> 00:02:24,563
So he invited me over
to see how he set up this scene...
42
00:02:24,730 --> 00:02:27,024
because this is the continuation...
43
00:02:27,190 --> 00:02:30,777
of the very last moment,
I believe, of the previous.
44
00:02:30,944 --> 00:02:34,239
And so there was a lot of debate
on where the gas cap is...
45
00:02:34,406 --> 00:02:37,242
and the phone,
and positioning, and....
46
00:02:37,409 --> 00:02:38,785
We actually ended up moving...
47
00:02:38,952 --> 00:02:41,955
a little further down the road
from where he shot it.
48
00:02:42,122 --> 00:02:44,291
Now here we are at...
49
00:02:44,458 --> 00:02:48,670
Back at that same location
where we ended 302.
50
00:02:48,837 --> 00:02:52,466
And what was that like,
the handoff between you and Vince?
51
00:02:52,632 --> 00:02:55,177
It was fairly smooth.
He was still shooting this.
52
00:02:55,344 --> 00:02:57,071
He hadn't shot this scene
when I started prep.
53
00:02:57,095 --> 00:02:59,848
And so he invited me over
to see how he was gonna set it up.
54
00:03:00,015 --> 00:03:03,560
We talked about the best place for the
phone, the best place for the gas cap.
55
00:03:03,727 --> 00:03:09,649
And then, actually, the day when we
shot there, which was a different day...
56
00:03:09,816 --> 00:03:12,861
we did have to worry a little
about matching the sky...
57
00:03:13,028 --> 00:03:15,739
and the amount of clouds,
and that debate that goes on.
58
00:03:15,906 --> 00:03:17,532
But I think it worked really well.
59
00:03:17,699 --> 00:03:20,535
It's a terrific scene.
60
00:03:22,621 --> 00:03:27,542
Genny, what was it like writing Gus
after all these years?
61
00:03:27,709 --> 00:03:30,128
It was really interesting,
because this is sort of...
62
00:03:30,295 --> 00:03:34,424
the first "Gus" Gus scene,
where he's fully-formed Gus Fring.
63
00:03:34,591 --> 00:03:36,510
But he's not quite
fully-formed Gus Fring.
64
00:03:36,676 --> 00:03:38,136
This is several years previous.
65
00:03:38,303 --> 00:03:42,974
So this is definitely a thing
of making him Gus, but not, you know...
66
00:03:43,141 --> 00:03:45,685
overplaying who he is
in Breaking Bad.
67
00:03:45,852 --> 00:03:50,524
Like, "Is he proto-Gus? Is he quite
as intimidating as he once was?"
68
00:03:50,690 --> 00:03:52,484
That was really fun.
Also, they had a...
69
00:03:52,651 --> 00:03:55,445
Mike and Gus had such an established
relationship in Breaking Bad.
70
00:03:55,612 --> 00:03:59,074
This is the first time they're meeting,
so that was especially challenging.
71
00:03:59,241 --> 00:04:01,326
You wanna fall into the way
they used to talk.
72
00:04:01,493 --> 00:04:04,996
And that isn't really gonna work
for this scene, you know.
73
00:04:05,163 --> 00:04:08,291
Yeah, it's so interesting because
here we have two characters...
74
00:04:08,458 --> 00:04:11,211
who are so laconic...
75
00:04:11,378 --> 00:04:13,338
and choose their words so carefully.
76
00:04:13,505 --> 00:04:18,176
And it's almost like... Reading
the dialogue is almost like haiku.
77
00:04:18,343 --> 00:04:20,345
And, of course, here we get...
78
00:04:20,512 --> 00:04:23,140
Jeremiah Bitsui, who we saw
in the previous episode...
79
00:04:23,306 --> 00:04:25,517
but also, hey, it's Tyrus.
80
00:04:25,684 --> 00:04:27,853
- Ray Campbell.
- Ray Campbell.
81
00:04:28,019 --> 00:04:31,064
- It's a whole family reunion.
- It really is.
82
00:04:31,231 --> 00:04:32,751
Being in Albuquerque
with these guys...
83
00:04:32,941 --> 00:04:35,152
is the world's greatest
high-school reunion.
84
00:04:35,318 --> 00:04:37,863
I've said it before, I'll say it again.
85
00:04:38,029 --> 00:04:40,991
And that coat is just fantas...
86
00:04:41,158 --> 00:04:43,660
I wanna dress like Gus Fring.
87
00:04:43,827 --> 00:04:45,036
Don't we all?
88
00:04:45,203 --> 00:04:47,164
He really is... He really is the man.
89
00:04:47,330 --> 00:04:51,293
But criminal Gus Fring,
not Pollos Hermanos owner Gus, right?
90
00:04:51,460 --> 00:04:55,338
I'm actually... In real life, I'm closer
to Pollos Hermanos Gus Fring.
91
00:04:55,505 --> 00:04:59,718
And his hair is a little longer.
It's got a little curl to it.
92
00:04:59,885 --> 00:05:02,220
A little early Gus.
93
00:05:02,804 --> 00:05:04,347
That's right. Giancarlo really...
94
00:05:04,514 --> 00:05:09,936
He was very focused on what's the
same and what's different, wasn't he?
95
00:05:10,103 --> 00:05:11,897
How many years earlier is this?
96
00:05:13,106 --> 00:05:15,108
Should he be...?
How much younger is he?
97
00:05:15,275 --> 00:05:19,196
Well, you're an executive producer.
You should know that, right?
98
00:05:19,362 --> 00:05:21,865
I'm just asking for the audience.
99
00:05:22,032 --> 00:05:23,492
It's about five...
100
00:05:23,658 --> 00:05:25,619
Around five or six years earlier.
101
00:05:25,785 --> 00:05:28,497
- I'm not good with numbers.
- Yeah.
102
00:05:28,663 --> 00:05:30,874
Many moons ago.
103
00:05:31,249 --> 00:05:35,045
It was so much fun on set, just having
these guys back together again.
104
00:05:35,212 --> 00:05:36,713
You know, just...
105
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,924
It was almost like we never left.
106
00:05:39,090 --> 00:05:40,425
- Right.
- Yes.
107
00:05:40,592 --> 00:05:43,136
There's your credit. "Nina." Yay!
108
00:05:45,972 --> 00:05:48,725
I remember it when Giancarlo arrived,
he pulled me aside.
109
00:05:48,892 --> 00:05:52,229
He said, "I'm gonna need a few takes
to get back into Gus' head."
110
00:05:52,395 --> 00:05:55,023
But the first take, he was there.
111
00:05:55,190 --> 00:05:56,775
No doubt.
112
00:05:56,942 --> 00:05:59,653
And by the way,
the way you shot this...
113
00:05:59,819 --> 00:06:03,657
This especially is such
an epic, epic shot...
114
00:06:03,823 --> 00:06:06,451
when we go low
on these guys in profile.
115
00:06:06,618 --> 00:06:08,662
It's just wonderful.
116
00:06:11,873 --> 00:06:15,085
And in editing, you know, one of
the things I'm really proud of is that...
117
00:06:15,252 --> 00:06:16,795
we give these guys their due.
118
00:06:16,962 --> 00:06:21,258
We let their performances dictate
the rhythm of the editing.
119
00:06:21,424 --> 00:06:26,638
And we're not trying to force things
to go faster, because it's...
120
00:06:26,805 --> 00:06:27,847
There's a lot.
121
00:06:28,014 --> 00:06:31,476
There's a version of this scene
that is about a quarter of the length...
122
00:06:31,643 --> 00:06:33,728
that doesn't have
any of the thought to it.
123
00:06:33,895 --> 00:06:35,855
And I think this just has
a lot more impact...
124
00:06:36,022 --> 00:06:37,941
because of the way
you directed it, John.
125
00:06:38,108 --> 00:06:39,484
And the way...
126
00:06:39,651 --> 00:06:41,695
I think this was Kelley
who edited this one.
127
00:06:41,861 --> 00:06:45,490
A combination of these big vistas,
thanks to New Mexico.
128
00:06:45,657 --> 00:06:48,159
And then these tight, tight shots
on the faces.
129
00:06:48,326 --> 00:06:49,369
Yeah.
130
00:06:49,536 --> 00:06:52,747
And just the whole idea of
out-Mike-ing Mike needs a lot of room.
131
00:06:52,914 --> 00:06:54,291
Yeah, that's true.
132
00:06:54,457 --> 00:06:57,210
Yay, Tina Parker. Francesca.
133
00:06:59,713 --> 00:07:01,464
Tina is...
134
00:07:01,631 --> 00:07:04,050
She was very patient about
coming back to the show.
135
00:07:04,217 --> 00:07:06,011
I'm sure she read...
136
00:07:06,177 --> 00:07:08,263
Of course, she's a working actress
in Texas.
137
00:07:08,430 --> 00:07:10,348
She has her own theatre company.
138
00:07:10,515 --> 00:07:11,766
And she was very...
139
00:07:11,933 --> 00:07:15,353
I'm sure she read that
Saul Goodman was coming back.
140
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,565
And here it took us
until season three to bring her back.
141
00:07:18,732 --> 00:07:19,983
But, man, is she good.
142
00:07:20,150 --> 00:07:23,445
And so much fun to really see her....
143
00:07:23,612 --> 00:07:25,780
- But a completely different Francesca.
- Yeah.
144
00:07:25,947 --> 00:07:28,074
So many of the characters
we bring back...
145
00:07:28,241 --> 00:07:30,201
are similar
to how they were in Breaking Bad.
146
00:07:30,368 --> 00:07:33,330
But there's gonna be
an evolution of Francesca.
147
00:07:33,496 --> 00:07:36,750
Yeah, before she's been
beaten down by life, yeah.
148
00:07:36,916 --> 00:07:39,586
And you can see it
in costume and hair.
149
00:07:39,753 --> 00:07:41,755
And she's trying to do her job.
150
00:07:41,921 --> 00:07:44,674
- And she's upbeat.
- She is very upbeat.
151
00:07:44,841 --> 00:07:48,762
But also awkward. I like that she's
added that awkwardness, you know?
152
00:07:49,512 --> 00:07:52,223
I think she plays it like...
153
00:07:52,390 --> 00:07:54,684
And you see more of this
in subsequent episodes.
154
00:07:54,851 --> 00:07:57,187
She's a little bit leery of Kim.
155
00:07:57,354 --> 00:08:01,524
Kim is... You can tell,
Kim is a great person and very kind...
156
00:08:01,691 --> 00:08:04,027
but not necessarily
the world's easiest boss...
157
00:08:04,194 --> 00:08:06,446
because she is so detail-oriented.
158
00:08:06,613 --> 00:08:08,448
And, of course...
159
00:08:08,615 --> 00:08:14,329
this is another great scene
between these two actors.
160
00:08:17,207 --> 00:08:18,917
This is...
161
00:08:20,752 --> 00:08:23,797
McKean, just...
McKean and Odenkirk together...
162
00:08:23,963 --> 00:08:26,591
always hit it out of the park.
163
00:08:26,758 --> 00:08:29,135
They're just magic together.
164
00:08:29,302 --> 00:08:31,846
What I love is that,
you know, Chuck is always...
165
00:08:32,013 --> 00:08:35,308
When Chuck says this stuff
which is obviously very insulting...
166
00:08:35,475 --> 00:08:38,103
and rubs Jimmy the wrong way...
167
00:08:38,269 --> 00:08:41,022
he really does think
he's coming from the right place.
168
00:08:41,189 --> 00:08:43,608
- Yes.
- Chuck really thinks he's trying to help.
169
00:08:43,775 --> 00:08:46,444
And Michael really rides that line
of the condescension...
170
00:08:46,611 --> 00:08:49,364
but also you can see
that he believes it.
171
00:08:49,531 --> 00:08:52,951
We're so with Jimmy, that obviously
we pretty much identify with him.
172
00:08:53,118 --> 00:08:55,036
But, you know,
Chuck isn't always wrong...
173
00:08:55,203 --> 00:08:57,455
in these scenes either, you know?
174
00:08:58,123 --> 00:09:02,085
Yeah, and I love the way you write that
and the way you said that...
175
00:09:02,252 --> 00:09:07,424
because these characters are
all the heroes of their own story...
176
00:09:07,590 --> 00:09:09,676
and especially, especially Chuck.
177
00:09:09,843 --> 00:09:14,222
And so much of this season
is about Chuck's story.
178
00:09:14,389 --> 00:09:17,100
And, boy, I hope those of you
who are listening...
179
00:09:17,267 --> 00:09:19,144
have watched the whole season...
180
00:09:19,728 --> 00:09:22,355
before you listen
to the commentary track.
181
00:09:22,522 --> 00:09:25,108
- Spoiler alert.
- Because there's gonna be spoilers.
182
00:09:25,275 --> 00:09:27,777
Curled up in that space-blanket.
183
00:09:27,944 --> 00:09:30,822
Take you to the hospital.
Hook you up to those....
184
00:09:30,989 --> 00:09:33,950
And even at this point in the season,
in the writers' room...
185
00:09:34,117 --> 00:09:39,247
we didn't know for sure what was
gonna happen between these two guys.
186
00:09:39,414 --> 00:09:41,958
But I think, intuitively...
187
00:09:43,126 --> 00:09:45,170
there are all these little clues...
188
00:09:45,336 --> 00:09:48,047
and things that could be read
as foreshadowing...
189
00:09:48,214 --> 00:09:52,385
about where Chuck's going.
190
00:09:52,886 --> 00:09:54,721
There's my ride.
191
00:09:59,184 --> 00:10:02,520
And this is a
Thomas Golubic discovery...
192
00:10:02,687 --> 00:10:07,233
this Little Richard song,
which I just love, and I...
193
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,360
- It's fantastic.
- This is a scene...
194
00:10:09,527 --> 00:10:13,782
that I would be happy to watch
at three times the length.
195
00:10:13,948 --> 00:10:16,951
It's just... It's so terrific.
196
00:10:17,118 --> 00:10:19,996
It's such a soulful music choice.
197
00:10:20,413 --> 00:10:23,208
And Simon gets a cameo,
gets more than a cameo.
198
00:10:23,374 --> 00:10:27,837
Simon, our A.P.D. technical advisor,
is also...
199
00:10:28,004 --> 00:10:29,923
working as one of our officers here...
200
00:10:30,089 --> 00:10:32,258
and helped us so much
throughout the season.
201
00:10:32,425 --> 00:10:34,052
What is this location?
202
00:10:34,219 --> 00:10:37,972
It's actually a former detention centre
outside of Albuquerque...
203
00:10:38,139 --> 00:10:41,976
which now is used
as a Girl Scout camp.
204
00:10:42,143 --> 00:10:46,022
We had to cover murals of rainbows
and flowers that were all over the walls.
205
00:10:46,189 --> 00:10:48,525
Art Department had to cover it.
206
00:10:48,983 --> 00:10:50,777
I love it.
207
00:10:51,402 --> 00:10:54,739
And isn't this gentleman
doing the photography...
208
00:10:54,906 --> 00:10:56,533
he's a real police officer?
209
00:10:56,699 --> 00:10:58,827
He's a real police officer, correct.
210
00:10:58,993 --> 00:11:02,038
- He's just great.
- Yeah, Francisco.
211
00:11:05,750 --> 00:11:08,419
A return of Peter Diseth.
212
00:11:10,129 --> 00:11:11,923
Classic.
213
00:11:12,549 --> 00:11:15,844
Peter Diseth, who we just love...
214
00:11:16,010 --> 00:11:18,471
and, of course,
who showed up originally...
215
00:11:18,638 --> 00:11:21,391
in the second episode
of Better Call Saul...
216
00:11:21,558 --> 00:11:26,437
just saying almost nothing
except the phrase, "Petty with a prior."
217
00:11:26,604 --> 00:11:29,107
And we just...
We just loved him so much.
218
00:11:29,274 --> 00:11:31,776
And Bob actually said,
after that first sequence:
219
00:11:31,943 --> 00:11:33,403
"This guy's really good."
220
00:11:33,570 --> 00:11:35,780
And he is a local Albuquerque actor...
221
00:11:35,947 --> 00:11:40,034
and he has just crushed
every single scene that he's done.
222
00:11:40,201 --> 00:11:42,161
And he was in
one of John's prior episodes.
223
00:11:42,328 --> 00:11:45,081
I had the pleasure
of doing the bathroom scene...
224
00:11:45,248 --> 00:11:47,500
as we'll call it forever...
225
00:11:47,667 --> 00:11:51,170
in season two, between these two.
226
00:11:51,337 --> 00:11:55,925
Which of course was when the name
Omar was first broached between them.
227
00:11:56,092 --> 00:11:57,677
Yes, Omar.
228
00:11:57,844 --> 00:12:02,307
It's pretty great because, you know,
Bob is such a titan of comedy...
229
00:12:02,473 --> 00:12:06,102
and to have someone be able
to have these scenes...
230
00:12:06,269 --> 00:12:08,730
these comedic scenes
and really hold their own...
231
00:12:08,897 --> 00:12:11,399
and improve the scene
with their performance....
232
00:12:11,566 --> 00:12:14,110
And how these two guys play off
each other is so great.
233
00:12:14,277 --> 00:12:16,487
You don't always know
if that's gonna happen...
234
00:12:16,654 --> 00:12:18,239
when you cast people, you know.
235
00:12:18,406 --> 00:12:22,076
You cast someone great in an audition,
but there's chemistry that comes out...
236
00:12:22,243 --> 00:12:24,746
when you actually get down
to shooting the scene.
237
00:12:24,913 --> 00:12:28,458
It's just so wonderful
that they have this amazing chemistry.
238
00:12:28,625 --> 00:12:32,003
And it feels like you're writing
for him now, which is great.
239
00:12:32,170 --> 00:12:34,422
- Yeah.
- One thing I pride...
240
00:12:34,589 --> 00:12:35,924
I feel...
241
00:12:36,090 --> 00:12:39,260
We pride ourselves on is knowing
when we've got a good thing going...
242
00:12:39,427 --> 00:12:41,971
and trying to make
as much of it as we can.
243
00:12:42,138 --> 00:12:45,850
And the chemistry between
these two guys is definitely...
244
00:12:46,017 --> 00:12:48,061
Falls into that category.
245
00:12:49,228 --> 00:12:52,565
Pick the biggest guy,
punch him as hard as you can.
246
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,611
He's gonna punch you, man.
247
00:12:58,780 --> 00:13:00,865
Yeah, all right. Goodbye.
248
00:13:01,658 --> 00:13:04,118
Genny just wrote
the hell out of these scenes.
249
00:13:04,285 --> 00:13:07,914
I like how sad all the hair is
in this scene too.
250
00:13:11,709 --> 00:13:14,212
And, of course, this is fluorescent...
251
00:13:14,379 --> 00:13:16,631
ugly, industrial...
252
00:13:17,090 --> 00:13:19,133
lived-in space.
253
00:13:19,300 --> 00:13:21,552
It tells so much of the story.
254
00:13:21,719 --> 00:13:25,390
Meanwhile,
elsewhere in Albuquerque....
255
00:13:25,556 --> 00:13:29,477
Is this our first Kim montage
that we've ever done?
256
00:13:29,644 --> 00:13:32,480
- No, John had a major...
- No, the Post-it montage.
257
00:13:32,647 --> 00:13:36,234
Oh, the Post-it montage.
So you are the Kim-montage pro.
258
00:13:36,401 --> 00:13:38,111
Yes, indeed. I'm very proud of that.
259
00:13:38,277 --> 00:13:41,447
We know if John's coming that we're
gonna do some Kim montages...
260
00:13:41,614 --> 00:13:44,909
and get Peter Diseth into the show.
261
00:13:51,082 --> 00:13:55,086
It's interesting what happens to Kim
in the course of the season.
262
00:13:55,253 --> 00:13:57,880
I really admire Kim's...
263
00:13:58,881 --> 00:14:02,885
go-getting spirit,
that she is the hardest worker around.
264
00:14:03,052 --> 00:14:05,471
That's something I find very endearing.
265
00:14:05,638 --> 00:14:09,392
But as this season goes on,
that hard work goes to a new place.
266
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:14,605
And I think this montage is
just the kind of start of that.
267
00:14:15,898 --> 00:14:17,942
The woman that goes
to the gym purely to...
268
00:14:18,109 --> 00:14:20,486
get dressed and shower for work
the next day.
269
00:14:20,653 --> 00:14:22,363
- Right.
- That's right.
270
00:14:22,530 --> 00:14:27,910
And, again, another wonderful piece
of music that Thomas found for us.
271
00:14:28,077 --> 00:14:29,954
This is actually... It's...
272
00:14:30,121 --> 00:14:32,957
I know he's a northern European artist.
273
00:14:33,124 --> 00:14:37,628
That's what I know about...
That's what I know about Todd Terje?
274
00:14:37,795 --> 00:14:41,507
Like, I don't... That's all I know.
275
00:14:41,674 --> 00:14:45,178
Thomas has some magic way
of finding these pieces of music.
276
00:14:45,344 --> 00:14:47,263
Thank goodness.
277
00:14:49,515 --> 00:14:51,350
Whose car is that?
278
00:14:52,435 --> 00:14:55,438
- Oh, Ernie.
- Poor Ernie.
279
00:14:57,190 --> 00:14:58,858
Hey, Kim.
280
00:14:59,525 --> 00:15:01,819
You know, speaking of keeping
a good thing going.
281
00:15:01,986 --> 00:15:05,948
Of course, Brandon originally had...
282
00:15:06,115 --> 00:15:09,243
I think, one line in the first season...
283
00:15:09,410 --> 00:15:14,165
when he was in a flashback
in the HHM Xerox room.
284
00:15:14,332 --> 00:15:16,000
Right. Big celebration.
285
00:15:16,167 --> 00:15:17,460
We've just...
286
00:15:17,627 --> 00:15:19,837
He's just wonderful. He's a great guy.
287
00:15:20,004 --> 00:15:21,839
And he brings...
288
00:15:22,006 --> 00:15:25,927
this simple straightforwardness...
289
00:15:26,094 --> 00:15:29,013
to this character
that's just so endearing.
290
00:15:29,180 --> 00:15:31,182
And an interesting sense
of fashion to boot.
291
00:15:31,349 --> 00:15:35,478
- Yeah. Oh, man. He's trying.
- Isn't that the truth? And transportation.
292
00:15:39,273 --> 00:15:42,360
This is such a wonderful shot, John.
293
00:15:44,028 --> 00:15:46,614
You've said to me many times
in the tone meeting...
294
00:15:46,781 --> 00:15:48,199
you love those slow pull-outs.
295
00:15:48,366 --> 00:15:50,576
The Kubrick... Kubrickian...
296
00:15:50,743 --> 00:15:52,453
Now I find one every time I can.
297
00:15:52,620 --> 00:15:54,413
Excellent. Well, they're...
298
00:15:54,580 --> 00:15:55,915
It's great.
299
00:15:56,415 --> 00:15:58,876
And I just also love the colour.
300
00:15:59,043 --> 00:16:00,294
Everything about this.
301
00:16:00,461 --> 00:16:03,256
BCDC, what does that mean?
302
00:16:03,422 --> 00:16:05,633
- Do we know that?
- That's the actual name of...
303
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,970
the Bernalillo County
Detention Center, I think.
304
00:16:09,137 --> 00:16:10,721
Department of Corrections.
305
00:16:10,888 --> 00:16:14,016
- Yeah, it is a little bit of a snafu...
- Yeah.
306
00:16:14,183 --> 00:16:18,896
In our MDC,
Metropolitan Detention Center.
307
00:16:19,063 --> 00:16:21,774
That's Molly Hagan
who's playing Judge Ash...
308
00:16:21,941 --> 00:16:25,820
which is a shout-out
to some of my in-laws, the Ashes.
309
00:16:25,987 --> 00:16:27,321
- Excellent.
- Nice.
310
00:16:28,364 --> 00:16:32,827
She's so great. I'm really happy
that we managed to get her.
311
00:16:33,578 --> 00:16:35,163
Molly is... Molly's wonderful.
312
00:16:35,329 --> 00:16:40,835
And Kelley Dixon immediately realised
that she's in...
313
00:16:41,002 --> 00:16:42,962
- Some Kind of Wonderful, right?
- Yeah.
314
00:16:43,129 --> 00:16:45,381
She also played a small role in Rectify.
315
00:16:45,548 --> 00:16:47,133
- Really?
- She was also in Election.
316
00:16:47,300 --> 00:16:49,510
I mean, you know,
she's been in some fun stuff.
317
00:16:49,677 --> 00:16:54,056
Also misdemeanour with a maximum
six months and a $500 fine.
318
00:16:54,223 --> 00:16:55,433
Victim is....
319
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,477
And we've seen this little couple
in the back before.
320
00:16:58,644 --> 00:16:59,854
They visited us in "Bingo."
321
00:17:00,313 --> 00:17:01,814
- Is that true? Is that so?
- Yeah.
322
00:17:01,981 --> 00:17:04,525
I assume you're prepared
to enter a plea at this time.
323
00:17:04,692 --> 00:17:09,363
Yes, Your Honour.
I wish to enter a plea of not guilty.
324
00:17:09,947 --> 00:17:12,491
The court accepts and enters
the defendant's plea of not guilty.
325
00:17:12,658 --> 00:17:13,910
I love her.
326
00:17:14,076 --> 00:17:16,787
This court reporter is awesome,
isn't she?
327
00:17:16,954 --> 00:17:18,748
She's a real court reporter.
328
00:17:18,915 --> 00:17:20,708
She inspired us
because at one point...
329
00:17:20,875 --> 00:17:23,395
she was trying to hear what the actors
were saying and leaned forward.
330
00:17:23,419 --> 00:17:27,131
I said, "We've gotta get a camera on her
and get that because it's so perfect."
331
00:17:27,965 --> 00:17:31,677
You know, oftentimes when
you hear about filmmaking...
332
00:17:31,844 --> 00:17:34,805
it sounds like everyone figures
everything out ahead of time.
333
00:17:34,972 --> 00:17:37,808
And that there's always
this master plan...
334
00:17:37,975 --> 00:17:41,312
and it's all about chess playing,
but so much of it is...
335
00:17:41,896 --> 00:17:44,398
recognising when
there's something worthwhile.
336
00:17:44,565 --> 00:17:46,859
- Absolutely.
- And making sure that you get it.
337
00:17:47,026 --> 00:17:49,403
And she's terrific.
338
00:17:49,570 --> 00:17:51,280
And, of course,
Jimmy's doing something...
339
00:17:51,447 --> 00:17:53,324
which you should not do
in a courtroom...
340
00:17:53,491 --> 00:17:56,911
which is to try to have a private
conversation in front of a judge.
341
00:17:57,078 --> 00:18:02,667
And the fact that she's leaning forward
just makes that very, very clear.
342
00:18:03,376 --> 00:18:04,919
Kim's like, "What the...?"
343
00:18:05,086 --> 00:18:07,546
"Why the hell are you talking to me?"
says Kim.
344
00:18:08,673 --> 00:18:12,260
- This is Jimmy's nightmare scenario.
- Oh, God.
345
00:18:12,426 --> 00:18:15,888
No outstanding warrants. And where
are you currently practising law?
346
00:18:16,055 --> 00:18:18,224
I haven't seen you
in my court in a while.
347
00:18:18,975 --> 00:18:20,518
It's a hard moment for Kim too...
348
00:18:20,685 --> 00:18:23,312
because she's been rejected
in a professional setting.
349
00:18:23,479 --> 00:18:26,148
And she probably wants
to have that argument right now...
350
00:18:26,315 --> 00:18:30,653
but she has to, you know,
keep that dignity and get out of there.
351
00:18:31,279 --> 00:18:33,698
Yeah, also, Jimmy doesn't
want her help, you know.
352
00:18:33,864 --> 00:18:35,908
- Yeah.
- She's not gonna force him...
353
00:18:36,075 --> 00:18:38,577
which is so much of what
the story line is...
354
00:18:38,744 --> 00:18:41,580
between these two in this episode.
355
00:18:42,415 --> 00:18:44,375
Both of them have so much pride.
356
00:18:45,835 --> 00:18:47,962
There's a lack
of understanding sometimes...
357
00:18:48,129 --> 00:18:51,966
on Jimmy's part of he wants to shelter
her from certain aspects of himself.
358
00:18:52,133 --> 00:18:56,721
And, you know, Kim's always like,
"But I accept those aspects of you."
359
00:18:56,887 --> 00:19:00,766
And it always leads
to these sort of miscommunications.
360
00:19:02,852 --> 00:19:06,731
I'm not the first one to say this,
but Bob is a really good actor.
361
00:19:06,897 --> 00:19:08,899
I love this...
362
00:19:09,066 --> 00:19:12,611
monologue that he did in one take.
It's just awesome. He's amazing.
363
00:19:12,778 --> 00:19:14,864
It's... It's terrific.
364
00:19:15,031 --> 00:19:17,491
And I love the fact,
you know, he saved up...
365
00:19:17,658 --> 00:19:19,785
- everything he wanted to say to her.
- Yes.
366
00:19:19,952 --> 00:19:21,537
And now it comes out.
367
00:19:21,704 --> 00:19:26,167
And the two of them are...
These two are just magic together.
368
00:19:26,334 --> 00:19:28,127
And I think they've only got...
369
00:19:28,294 --> 00:19:32,173
They just play better
with each other every episode...
370
00:19:32,340 --> 00:19:34,508
in every season.
371
00:19:34,967 --> 00:19:37,136
Then I didn't call you, which is stupid...
372
00:19:37,303 --> 00:19:39,472
Now, did you say,
"I wanna do this in one take."
373
00:19:39,638 --> 00:19:42,099
Or was that something
you and Bob had discussed?
374
00:19:42,266 --> 00:19:43,684
I can't remember.
375
00:19:43,851 --> 00:19:46,604
He came up and said,
"I'd like to try it in one."
376
00:19:46,771 --> 00:19:50,733
And I said, "Of course. Go for it."
And he was great.
377
00:19:51,776 --> 00:19:54,570
You know, in post, we tried...
378
00:19:54,737 --> 00:19:55,946
Tried seeing...
379
00:19:56,113 --> 00:19:59,325
Coming around to her during all this.
380
00:19:59,492 --> 00:20:00,993
And it just...
381
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:05,081
This is the way you cut it,
and it works great.
382
00:20:05,247 --> 00:20:07,416
It's the right way to do it...
383
00:20:08,334 --> 00:20:10,628
because the suspense here is:
384
00:20:10,795 --> 00:20:14,673
"What is Kim's reaction gonna be
to this avalanche of words?"
385
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,176
And she's in slight soft focus.
386
00:20:17,343 --> 00:20:18,511
And yet you can...
387
00:20:18,677 --> 00:20:21,347
- This is the first time we've cut to her.
- Yeah.
388
00:20:21,889 --> 00:20:25,184
And her reaction, she's just so...
389
00:20:25,351 --> 00:20:28,270
- It's perfect.
- Underplays it.
390
00:20:28,437 --> 00:20:30,022
Thank you.
391
00:20:32,900 --> 00:20:34,944
He'd expect her to go nuts,
but not Kim.
392
00:20:35,111 --> 00:20:37,196
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
393
00:20:38,239 --> 00:20:40,825
And all the time that went
into what was on her monitor.
394
00:20:40,991 --> 00:20:44,412
- Oh, my gosh, yeah.
- From Ariel Levine, no doubt.
395
00:20:45,079 --> 00:20:51,001
We have Ariel, and Desa,
and Jenn, and Jonny in our office.
396
00:20:51,168 --> 00:20:53,754
And they do an incredible job.
397
00:20:53,921 --> 00:20:57,299
And they often end up
writing things like...
398
00:20:57,466 --> 00:20:59,802
Kim's letter that you can see
on the screen.
399
00:20:59,969 --> 00:21:02,471
If you were able to freeze-frame it
and blow that up...
400
00:21:02,638 --> 00:21:05,599
- it would be a really good...
- Informative.
401
00:21:05,766 --> 00:21:07,685
You would learn something
about the law.
402
00:21:07,852 --> 00:21:09,937
- That's true.
- You could have a side class.
403
00:21:10,104 --> 00:21:12,523
You mind driving me to my car?
404
00:21:12,690 --> 00:21:15,025
Sure, no problem.
405
00:21:18,696 --> 00:21:20,197
Just so you know...
406
00:21:20,364 --> 00:21:23,742
this isn't a typical week around here.
407
00:21:24,493 --> 00:21:25,870
Yeah, totally.
408
00:21:26,036 --> 00:21:29,039
Tina... Tina's just great.
409
00:21:29,707 --> 00:21:33,252
The picture that's on her desk
is actually of her with her father.
410
00:21:33,419 --> 00:21:35,504
Oh, that's lovely.
411
00:21:36,297 --> 00:21:37,423
By the way...
412
00:21:37,882 --> 00:21:40,468
- any of you who happen to be in...
- Nice transition.
413
00:21:40,634 --> 00:21:43,137
I think it's either Houston or Austin...
414
00:21:43,304 --> 00:21:46,265
she runs
the Kitchen Dog Theater company.
415
00:21:46,432 --> 00:21:51,312
I highly recommend going to catch
a show or even make a contribution.
416
00:21:51,896 --> 00:21:53,355
JB.
417
00:21:53,522 --> 00:21:54,982
Yeah.
418
00:21:55,149 --> 00:21:56,901
It's JB Blanc, who we...
419
00:21:57,067 --> 00:21:59,069
When did we see him last?
420
00:21:59,236 --> 00:22:01,030
- In Breaking Bad.
- Breaking Bad, yeah.
421
00:22:01,197 --> 00:22:02,239
Yeah.
422
00:22:02,406 --> 00:22:07,453
At the temporary medical centre
just south of the border...
423
00:22:07,620 --> 00:22:10,206
when Gus was recovering.
424
00:22:10,372 --> 00:22:14,752
Recovering from poisoning the cartel.
425
00:22:15,127 --> 00:22:17,713
Well, and also healing Mike
with his injury.
426
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,967
Feeding his chickens
inside that same joint.
427
00:22:23,427 --> 00:22:24,470
Look.
428
00:22:24,637 --> 00:22:26,931
He seems to be a good doctor.
I like that.
429
00:22:27,097 --> 00:22:30,976
He's nice to kids,
which is a good baseline, you know?
430
00:22:32,937 --> 00:22:36,023
Now, John, did you actually go
to Mexico to shoot this sequence?
431
00:22:36,190 --> 00:22:41,529
You know, we went to scout this
location, which is a veterinary hospital.
432
00:22:41,695 --> 00:22:47,409
And it's a half a block
from Los Pollos Hermanos location.
433
00:22:47,576 --> 00:22:49,161
And the ostrich was there.
434
00:22:49,328 --> 00:22:52,623
It was always outside
in a pen next door.
435
00:22:52,790 --> 00:22:54,792
So it was like coming home. It was...
436
00:22:54,959 --> 00:23:00,297
There is an ostrich
that lives outside Pollos Hermanos.
437
00:23:00,464 --> 00:23:02,466
All I can think of is Napoleon Dynamite.
438
00:23:02,633 --> 00:23:05,219
He's just always getting
into trouble, yeah.
439
00:23:05,386 --> 00:23:07,137
Mr. Clark.
440
00:23:07,304 --> 00:23:09,473
The doctor's ready.
441
00:23:10,766 --> 00:23:12,935
And this... Jonathan walks here.
442
00:23:13,102 --> 00:23:16,522
He asked for one more take...
443
00:23:16,689 --> 00:23:19,149
and bumped into the poor girl who...
On purpose.
444
00:23:19,316 --> 00:23:21,902
Whose foot was in frame.
He said, "I have to do this."
445
00:23:22,069 --> 00:23:24,738
And he ran into her.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry."
446
00:23:24,905 --> 00:23:28,075
And he couldn't help himself.
447
00:23:29,159 --> 00:23:31,912
That should be in the gag reel.
I don't think it is, though.
448
00:23:32,079 --> 00:23:33,914
- He's such a joker.
- That's so Jonathan.
449
00:23:34,081 --> 00:23:35,124
Yeah.
450
00:23:40,838 --> 00:23:43,799
I believe the nurse in the scene
that we just saw...
451
00:23:43,966 --> 00:23:48,345
also appears
in the Pollos Hermanos commercial...
452
00:23:48,512 --> 00:23:49,555
Chickens.
453
00:23:49,722 --> 00:23:51,515
That was run on local TV
in Albuquerque.
454
00:23:51,682 --> 00:23:53,142
Callback, chicken callback.
455
00:23:53,309 --> 00:23:55,519
Well, Mike likes chickens.
456
00:23:55,686 --> 00:23:57,605
Isn't that beautiful?
457
00:23:57,771 --> 00:24:00,357
The paint job
that the Art Department did here.
458
00:24:00,524 --> 00:24:04,403
Michael Novotny, leading the best
Art Department anywhere.
459
00:24:04,570 --> 00:24:08,324
It just tells so much of the story
right there.
460
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,787
I think it's fine.
461
00:24:13,954 --> 00:24:15,372
Nothing bad can come of this.
462
00:24:17,666 --> 00:24:20,544
- Why is Mike driving?
- We all have one of those in our trunk.
463
00:24:20,711 --> 00:24:24,048
- Mexico, you know?
- It was just Band-Aids.
464
00:24:25,341 --> 00:24:27,343
We never get tired of callbacks, do we?
465
00:24:27,509 --> 00:24:31,930
Of course, this is a callback
to season one...
466
00:24:32,097 --> 00:24:36,602
when Jimmy was the one pulling
the coffee out of this machine.
467
00:24:37,978 --> 00:24:40,939
This scene too,
Bob came up and said...
468
00:24:41,106 --> 00:24:44,902
he'd like to try it as sketch comedy,
really, with just the two of them.
469
00:24:45,069 --> 00:24:48,989
And so this shot... We did this until...
470
00:24:49,156 --> 00:24:50,866
We have this one shot
for the whole scene.
471
00:24:51,033 --> 00:24:54,328
It just plays as a two-man bit,
and it's amazing.
472
00:24:54,495 --> 00:24:57,998
And all those takes were...
There are so many great takes of that.
473
00:24:58,165 --> 00:25:01,710
And I think we managed to keep
as much as humanly possible...
474
00:25:01,877 --> 00:25:03,587
before we went into the coverage.
475
00:25:03,754 --> 00:25:05,839
We talked about that.
There was an early cut.
476
00:25:06,006 --> 00:25:08,634
- "Let's just play it on the wide."
- Yes, yes.
477
00:25:08,801 --> 00:25:12,054
But then when the emotion shifts,
"Okay, we can take it in."
478
00:25:12,221 --> 00:25:15,724
My favourite thing about this is, when I
was writing this scene, I was like:
479
00:25:15,891 --> 00:25:17,393
"Oakley is so pathetic and sad."
480
00:25:17,559 --> 00:25:20,896
But the way Peter played it,
he played it with a little bit of relish...
481
00:25:21,063 --> 00:25:24,525
which makes it less sad,
but more sad, you know?
482
00:25:24,692 --> 00:25:27,528
He has a certain dignity
about his two-chip process.
483
00:25:27,695 --> 00:25:30,489
- Two-chip-bag process. His thing.
- He does this every day.
484
00:25:30,656 --> 00:25:33,742
Did he come up with all that
with the bags? This physical business?
485
00:25:33,909 --> 00:25:35,536
That was him, and he did it...
486
00:25:35,703 --> 00:25:39,373
He did it slightly different in one take,
and then he started doing two bags.
487
00:25:39,540 --> 00:25:42,626
And he stuck with it,
and it worked so well.
488
00:25:43,502 --> 00:25:48,173
And Mark Hansen and the prop team
put these burgers together.
489
00:25:48,340 --> 00:25:52,052
They were assembling them
like it was a commercial, you know?
490
00:25:52,219 --> 00:25:56,807
We had to make sure it'd be the most
appealing, juicy, delicious burger that...
491
00:25:56,974 --> 00:26:00,936
Yes, there were many, many...
There were a lot of burger approvals.
492
00:26:01,103 --> 00:26:03,105
Yeah, I remember being
very worried about...
493
00:26:03,272 --> 00:26:06,024
having an appetizing enough burger.
494
00:26:06,191 --> 00:26:08,694
And Diane Mercer, our post producer...
495
00:26:08,861 --> 00:26:11,613
had to talk me out
of putting little waves...
496
00:26:11,780 --> 00:26:16,160
smell waves coming out
of the burger for him to sniff.
497
00:26:16,326 --> 00:26:20,414
I still regret that.
No, not really, but there you go.
498
00:26:20,581 --> 00:26:24,168
Their prop acting
and their food acting is so important.
499
00:26:24,334 --> 00:26:26,795
And they're so good at it.
They did it the same way.
500
00:26:26,962 --> 00:26:28,422
They worked it in.
501
00:26:28,589 --> 00:26:32,259
It didn't get in the way of the scene.
It helped the scene. It's pretty amazing.
502
00:26:32,426 --> 00:26:36,430
You know, it's one of the things
I enjoy about this show...
503
00:26:36,597 --> 00:26:41,185
is that we can go from very,
very serious life-and-death situations...
504
00:26:41,351 --> 00:26:44,438
and yet have this kind of comedy...
505
00:26:44,605 --> 00:26:49,067
this very character comedy, that it's
such an interesting combination.
506
00:26:49,234 --> 00:26:51,069
A lucky break, do you?
507
00:26:51,236 --> 00:26:54,990
And Bob is so great in this scene.
He's great in every scene.
508
00:26:55,157 --> 00:26:58,327
I just love this episode,
and I love this scene.
509
00:26:58,494 --> 00:27:00,412
Wheeled and dealed
together too many times.
510
00:27:00,579 --> 00:27:02,515
There's no way
the boss was letting me run that one.
511
00:27:02,539 --> 00:27:06,710
I think this episode may
very much be about bad ties.
512
00:27:08,086 --> 00:27:10,088
Every one that we've seen so far.
513
00:27:10,255 --> 00:27:12,049
Also, his suit's a little too big.
514
00:27:12,216 --> 00:27:14,468
Jennifer Bryan always does
those great details...
515
00:27:14,635 --> 00:27:17,429
with the wardrobe that tell a story...
516
00:27:17,596 --> 00:27:20,224
which is just so valuable
with all these characters.
517
00:27:20,390 --> 00:27:24,520
It's a funny thing, Mark,
because all of Jimmy's clothes...
518
00:27:24,686 --> 00:27:29,024
and Saul's clothes look terrible
and loud and clashy...
519
00:27:29,191 --> 00:27:30,567
when I first see them.
520
00:27:30,734 --> 00:27:33,862
And as the years go by, it's all
starting to look better and better.
521
00:27:34,029 --> 00:27:38,617
So I think he may be just a
fashion leader more than anything else.
522
00:27:38,784 --> 00:27:41,328
- This is one of his good suits.
- One of his good looks.
523
00:27:41,495 --> 00:27:43,747
- This is.
- This is a Davis & Main Grey suit.
524
00:27:43,914 --> 00:27:46,917
Whatever this crime is that Oakley's
wearing is another story.
525
00:27:47,084 --> 00:27:48,627
- I love that blue suit.
- Yeah.
526
00:27:48,794 --> 00:27:50,462
Oh, my God.
527
00:27:50,629 --> 00:27:54,132
And, of course, Oakley, he is a type.
528
00:27:54,299 --> 00:27:56,426
If you go to any
courthouse in America...
529
00:27:56,593 --> 00:28:01,306
you will see a lot of people working
in the prosecutor's office...
530
00:28:01,473 --> 00:28:05,936
who are very much
in the mould of ADA Oakley.
531
00:28:06,103 --> 00:28:10,357
It's really, more or less,
a thankless job.
532
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,241
And one of the things
that we did in post...
533
00:28:19,408 --> 00:28:21,577
under Marshall's guidance...
534
00:28:21,743 --> 00:28:25,706
was to alter the colour slightly...
535
00:28:25,873 --> 00:28:29,209
to help suggest
when we're south of the border.
536
00:28:29,376 --> 00:28:32,880
We have so many colour codes
on this show and on Breaking Bad...
537
00:28:33,046 --> 00:28:36,717
that sometimes we run the risk
of tripping ourselves up...
538
00:28:36,884 --> 00:28:41,430
because, of course, we have a colour
treatment that we do for flashbacks...
539
00:28:41,597 --> 00:28:43,807
and a colour treatment
that we do for Mexico.
540
00:28:43,974 --> 00:28:46,935
So, what do you do
if you have a flashback in Mexico?
541
00:28:47,102 --> 00:28:48,604
So those are all...
542
00:28:48,770 --> 00:28:52,441
Believe it or not, those are things that
we spend a lot of time thinking about.
543
00:28:52,608 --> 00:28:55,235
And so you can see,
it's just a little bit...
544
00:28:55,402 --> 00:28:58,363
It's a little bit warm,
and this is really picked up.
545
00:28:58,530 --> 00:29:00,866
It's a modification of a look that...
546
00:29:01,033 --> 00:29:04,036
Michael Slovis came up with
on Breaking Bad...
547
00:29:04,202 --> 00:29:08,123
to help distinguish the two worlds.
548
00:29:08,290 --> 00:29:09,583
Those shoes again.
549
00:29:09,750 --> 00:29:13,921
Oh, these shoes, of course,
Jennifer Bryan....
550
00:29:14,087 --> 00:29:17,215
These were manufactured
specifically for our show.
551
00:29:17,382 --> 00:29:18,508
Custom designed.
552
00:29:19,051 --> 00:29:20,969
And in our criminal signature red.
553
00:29:21,136 --> 00:29:25,015
Let me say this.
It's not a recognisable logo.
554
00:29:25,182 --> 00:29:28,310
It's going to be recognisable, Mark,
because we're marketing these.
555
00:29:28,477 --> 00:29:30,729
We're going to do
a whole line of these shoes.
556
00:29:30,896 --> 00:29:32,481
That and the ties too.
557
00:29:32,648 --> 00:29:34,942
- Good. Oh, good.
- Jimmy's ties.
558
00:29:35,108 --> 00:29:37,361
You might think I'm joking, but...
559
00:29:37,527 --> 00:29:39,696
- And ties with shoes on them.
- Yeah.
560
00:29:39,863 --> 00:29:43,992
But we all will stop laughing
when we cash the cheques.
561
00:29:45,118 --> 00:29:48,121
- All right, John, how'd you pull this off?
- Yeah.
562
00:29:48,288 --> 00:29:51,249
We were very worried about it,
but it's easier than I thought.
563
00:29:51,416 --> 00:29:55,128
This is Jonathan doing
the practise throws.
564
00:29:55,295 --> 00:29:57,547
And then the...
565
00:29:57,714 --> 00:29:59,091
How many takes?
566
00:29:59,257 --> 00:30:01,468
Only about three.
567
00:30:02,469 --> 00:30:05,889
And he was not supposed
to make it, so...
568
00:30:06,264 --> 00:30:07,933
- That worked out well.
- That worked out.
569
00:30:08,100 --> 00:30:11,478
You don't wanna make Mike too
Superman-y, landing it on the first try.
570
00:30:11,645 --> 00:30:15,565
Exactly. And we gave him a second.
571
00:30:15,732 --> 00:30:19,069
And then you'll see a high shot
from the crane looking down...
572
00:30:19,236 --> 00:30:20,320
which is the double.
573
00:30:20,487 --> 00:30:23,949
And the double nailed it
on the second take.
574
00:30:24,449 --> 00:30:25,951
That.
575
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,579
- That's not actually Jonathan.
- That's not Jonathan.
576
00:30:29,746 --> 00:30:31,164
- It's amazing.
- That guy.
577
00:30:31,331 --> 00:30:33,333
The guy we're looking at
is not Jonathan?
578
00:30:33,500 --> 00:30:34,543
No.
579
00:30:35,419 --> 00:30:37,295
That double's very close.
580
00:30:37,462 --> 00:30:41,341
I'll also mention
that we only had, I think...
581
00:30:41,508 --> 00:30:43,593
how many actual electrical poles?
582
00:30:44,553 --> 00:30:45,762
- Two.
- Two.
583
00:30:45,929 --> 00:30:48,640
Two, so when you watch
the scenes out in the desert...
584
00:30:48,807 --> 00:30:51,810
a lot of those electrical poles
are digital...
585
00:30:51,977 --> 00:30:54,646
but let's not skip past the entrance...
586
00:30:54,813 --> 00:30:58,900
of the marvellous
Kimberly Hebert Gregory.
587
00:30:59,860 --> 00:31:00,902
This is...
588
00:31:01,069 --> 00:31:02,446
I haven't got to meet her.
589
00:31:02,612 --> 00:31:05,490
- But she's just tremendous.
- She's lovely.
590
00:31:05,657 --> 00:31:09,703
She's sweet and
very enthusiastic and....
591
00:31:09,870 --> 00:31:11,580
Such a great energy.
592
00:31:11,747 --> 00:31:13,248
Yes.
593
00:31:13,415 --> 00:31:16,460
- Great work on Vice Principals.
- Is she from Albuquerque?
594
00:31:16,626 --> 00:31:21,882
No, far from it. She is a wonderful
actress who's probably...
595
00:31:22,049 --> 00:31:26,303
She was first known to me
on the show Vice Principals...
596
00:31:26,470 --> 00:31:31,183
where she's essentially one
of the three leads on Vice Principals.
597
00:31:31,349 --> 00:31:34,519
I was just blown away
by her performance on Vice Principals.
598
00:31:34,686 --> 00:31:37,773
And then our brilliant casting folks...
599
00:31:37,939 --> 00:31:43,403
Bialy/Thomas, brought her name up
when we started talking about...
600
00:31:43,570 --> 00:31:45,072
Talking about the whole season.
601
00:31:45,238 --> 00:31:47,324
They said,
"Wouldn't it be great to see her?"
602
00:31:47,491 --> 00:31:50,285
So this was just magical
that she was available...
603
00:31:50,452 --> 00:31:52,370
and she was willing to do this role.
604
00:31:52,537 --> 00:31:53,830
I'd love to see more of her.
605
00:31:53,997 --> 00:31:58,293
Yeah, me too. Another actor who,
you know, has done a lot of comedy.
606
00:31:58,460 --> 00:32:01,338
And, you know,
we don't really let her be funny here.
607
00:32:01,505 --> 00:32:04,424
But she's so great,
and I think that she brings kind of...
608
00:32:04,591 --> 00:32:06,510
a warmth to the character too...
609
00:32:06,676 --> 00:32:09,054
that maybe comes
from that background as well.
610
00:32:09,221 --> 00:32:11,389
But, yeah, she's....
611
00:32:11,556 --> 00:32:14,726
I love this scene because
it's very delicate what she's doing.
612
00:32:14,893 --> 00:32:16,812
She's trying to be respectful of him.
613
00:32:16,978 --> 00:32:19,397
But has to be able to do her job
at the same time.
614
00:32:19,564 --> 00:32:22,359
And he's in prime Chuck mode, I think.
615
00:32:22,526 --> 00:32:24,319
Yes, and I actually love...
616
00:32:24,486 --> 00:32:26,196
I was very impressed with the way...
617
00:32:26,363 --> 00:32:29,616
he shows Chuck's cards
to the audience but not to her.
618
00:32:29,783 --> 00:32:32,577
And it's very interesting.
It's very nuanced.
619
00:32:32,744 --> 00:32:36,414
It's so interesting to me
because both these brothers...
620
00:32:36,581 --> 00:32:41,378
through the season,
use honest emotion in dishonest ways.
621
00:32:41,545 --> 00:32:42,963
- And this is...
- Absolutely.
622
00:32:43,130 --> 00:32:47,384
I think there's some real emotion here.
I don't think it's just play-acting.
623
00:32:47,551 --> 00:32:49,970
But he is definitely
doing it on purpose.
624
00:32:50,595 --> 00:32:53,640
And, also, she really seems
to be great at her job.
625
00:32:53,807 --> 00:32:55,767
I think Jimmy's in
a hell of a lot of trouble.
626
00:32:55,934 --> 00:32:57,102
Yeah.
627
00:32:57,269 --> 00:32:59,896
And I believe Julia Downs weighed in.
628
00:33:00,063 --> 00:33:03,316
My friend, who's an ADA...
629
00:33:03,483 --> 00:33:06,653
- in Belen, weighed in on this scene.
- Yes.
630
00:33:06,820 --> 00:33:08,321
So props to her.
631
00:33:08,488 --> 00:33:11,992
Yeah, she helped us a lot
with what kind of options...
632
00:33:12,659 --> 00:33:15,662
would the DA's office go for
with Jimmy...
633
00:33:15,829 --> 00:33:18,415
what might he be presented with,
and gave us a lot...
634
00:33:18,582 --> 00:33:21,418
of really great,
sort of real-life scenarios.
635
00:33:21,585 --> 00:33:24,129
And because she's based in Belen...
636
00:33:24,296 --> 00:33:28,049
she's familiar with what the local...
You know, what the state laws are.
637
00:33:28,216 --> 00:33:30,802
So you could get really specific.
638
00:33:31,428 --> 00:33:34,890
Yes, of course.
All these laws vary, state to state.
639
00:33:35,056 --> 00:33:37,809
And so having Julia...
She's been wonderful.
640
00:33:37,976 --> 00:33:40,145
And I've never met her face-to-face.
641
00:33:40,312 --> 00:33:42,898
But we've talked on the phone
quite a few times.
642
00:33:43,064 --> 00:33:46,151
She's been just so, so helpful.
643
00:33:46,318 --> 00:33:48,403
Especially at this part of the season...
644
00:33:48,570 --> 00:33:52,824
which hinges on
so many legal nuances.
645
00:33:52,991 --> 00:33:55,368
We're very reliant on having folks...
646
00:33:55,535 --> 00:34:00,540
who donate their time,
like her especially.
647
00:34:06,379 --> 00:34:09,049
Oh, Chuck, what are you up to?
648
00:34:11,176 --> 00:34:14,804
And here comes
this big showcase scene.
649
00:34:14,971 --> 00:34:18,850
How long did it take you to shoot
all this stuff out in the desert, John?
650
00:34:19,517 --> 00:34:22,103
I think we spread it out
over three days.
651
00:34:22,270 --> 00:34:25,315
So there was one full day
and a couple of half days.
652
00:34:25,482 --> 00:34:27,901
You've got that little flash up there
indicating...
653
00:34:28,068 --> 00:34:29,861
- That was a trick, right?
- That's true.
654
00:34:30,028 --> 00:34:33,490
Deciding how we were going
to give it away, but not be too...
655
00:34:33,657 --> 00:34:35,116
Just a little digital flash.
656
00:34:35,283 --> 00:34:37,452
Some people are gonna see it.
Some people won't.
657
00:34:38,453 --> 00:34:41,623
But, again, you're looking at...
658
00:34:41,790 --> 00:34:46,253
You're looking at a real landscape
that's had a lot of digital help...
659
00:34:46,419 --> 00:34:49,339
with these poles.
660
00:34:49,506 --> 00:34:52,926
And, also, there were things in the
desert that didn't look quite right...
661
00:34:53,093 --> 00:34:56,137
like tracks from off-road vehicles.
662
00:34:56,304 --> 00:34:59,557
- And all that was erased by...
- Buildings and... Yeah.
663
00:35:00,642 --> 00:35:03,520
Well, Diane Mercer.
Super Diane Mercer.
664
00:35:03,687 --> 00:35:05,480
And....
665
00:35:06,856 --> 00:35:08,525
I think this sequence...
666
00:35:08,692 --> 00:35:11,194
a lot of the artists
at Keep Me Posted...
667
00:35:11,361 --> 00:35:13,029
contributed to it quite a bit.
668
00:35:13,196 --> 00:35:15,490
And where Mike is....
669
00:35:15,949 --> 00:35:19,494
There's the shot
that we just saw that's above him.
670
00:35:19,661 --> 00:35:22,956
And you see the whole landscape,
which that was actually his double.
671
00:35:23,123 --> 00:35:26,751
But these tighter shots,
we were in a different location...
672
00:35:26,918 --> 00:35:29,087
than where you think
it's being established.
673
00:35:29,254 --> 00:35:31,589
Because in order
to make sure John and the crew...
674
00:35:31,756 --> 00:35:35,051
could have the space to work
and put the camera where they want...
675
00:35:35,218 --> 00:35:38,888
and we could easily access it
for Jonathan to get there.
676
00:35:39,055 --> 00:35:41,891
So it's on a much lower
section of the hill.
677
00:35:42,058 --> 00:35:43,184
Movie magic.
678
00:35:43,351 --> 00:35:45,228
There's a lot of movie magic here.
679
00:35:45,395 --> 00:35:50,150
And one of the great pieces of movie
magic for me is Dave Porter's score.
680
00:35:50,317 --> 00:35:51,359
Yes.
681
00:35:51,526 --> 00:35:55,280
I am always happy
when we have a sequence...
682
00:35:55,447 --> 00:35:58,783
that I feel in my gut is going
to be something...
683
00:35:58,950 --> 00:36:01,619
that Dave really gets
to sink his teeth into.
684
00:36:01,786 --> 00:36:05,040
And this is definitely one of them.
685
00:36:05,206 --> 00:36:08,043
Again, those are digital, those...
686
00:36:08,209 --> 00:36:09,753
- The power lines.
- Power lines.
687
00:36:09,919 --> 00:36:12,047
- Which I think is...
- Not the actors.
688
00:36:12,213 --> 00:36:14,674
- No, no digital actors yet.
- Not this time.
689
00:36:14,841 --> 00:36:16,843
Not this episode.
690
00:36:20,055 --> 00:36:25,477
And this little contraption took
some thought and engineering as well.
691
00:36:36,821 --> 00:36:39,157
It's so suspenseful.
We're just watching now.
692
00:36:39,324 --> 00:36:41,618
- I know.
- Well, I would just...
693
00:36:41,785 --> 00:36:44,913
I haven't watched this in a little bit,
and it's reminding me...
694
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,832
I'm sitting here with John.
I keep looking over at him...
695
00:36:47,999 --> 00:36:52,253
because there's so many
damn pieces in this sequence.
696
00:36:52,420 --> 00:36:53,880
And it's...
697
00:36:54,047 --> 00:36:56,216
We had every piece we needed.
698
00:36:56,383 --> 00:36:59,135
And it all goes together like butter.
699
00:36:59,302 --> 00:37:03,098
And I'm really admiring
how well shot it is...
700
00:37:03,264 --> 00:37:06,393
and how well thought out it is,
really, more than anything else.
701
00:37:06,559 --> 00:37:08,895
- Was it storyboarded?
- It was not storyboarded.
702
00:37:09,062 --> 00:37:12,565
But we had to keep track
of all the points of view.
703
00:37:12,732 --> 00:37:15,527
There's a scope point of view,
a clean point of view...
704
00:37:15,693 --> 00:37:18,029
there's a binocular point of view.
705
00:37:18,196 --> 00:37:22,867
And it had to be basically shot
from here, where the gun box is...
706
00:37:23,034 --> 00:37:24,869
and then from up above.
707
00:37:25,036 --> 00:37:28,081
- And it was very complicated.
- It's really intricate.
708
00:37:28,248 --> 00:37:30,458
We shot-listed it, definitely, but...
709
00:37:31,167 --> 00:37:35,588
And when I read it, you know,
I love that challenge of...
710
00:37:36,005 --> 00:37:40,427
what is basically a visual...
Entirely visual sequence.
711
00:37:41,761 --> 00:37:44,889
Yeah, if the folks at home
are making a sandwich...
712
00:37:45,056 --> 00:37:47,308
they really have no idea
what's happening here.
713
00:37:47,475 --> 00:37:48,518
Exactly.
714
00:37:48,685 --> 00:37:51,896
So don't make a sandwich while you're
watching the show, please.
715
00:37:52,814 --> 00:37:54,983
You can eat the sandwich
while you're watching.
716
00:37:55,150 --> 00:37:58,695
Just pause it
before you make the sandwich.
717
00:38:02,907 --> 00:38:04,075
And talk about this.
718
00:38:05,743 --> 00:38:07,203
Oh, yeah.
719
00:38:08,121 --> 00:38:10,039
Yes, getting that shoe gag.
720
00:38:10,206 --> 00:38:15,712
We had about six shoes
that were wired in various stages...
721
00:38:15,879 --> 00:38:19,674
and had squibs in them
that would automatically go off.
722
00:38:20,216 --> 00:38:23,678
And we had a separate wire
that we put up at the T junction...
723
00:38:23,845 --> 00:38:26,973
so that another camera
could be shooting just the shoes.
724
00:38:27,140 --> 00:38:28,558
It's a very complicated piece.
725
00:38:28,725 --> 00:38:34,147
And I believe that we actually shot
a real pair of shoes with a real rifle.
726
00:38:34,564 --> 00:38:38,109
I think we were all worried
that it wasn't gonna look real.
727
00:38:38,276 --> 00:38:41,404
So we did it for real,
just to see what it would look like.
728
00:38:41,571 --> 00:38:42,614
And here we are back...
729
00:38:42,780 --> 00:38:46,951
where we were in episode 208,
at the border crossing.
730
00:38:48,369 --> 00:38:50,246
This is just....
731
00:38:51,164 --> 00:38:53,166
And, of course...
732
00:38:53,333 --> 00:38:54,918
that was...
733
00:38:55,084 --> 00:38:58,213
This border crossing
was an epic back in 208...
734
00:38:58,379 --> 00:39:02,217
with that amazing single shot
that went over the border.
735
00:39:02,383 --> 00:39:06,137
And here we are,
back with a different point of view.
736
00:39:06,304 --> 00:39:09,432
And these poor unsuspecting criminals
have no idea...
737
00:39:09,599 --> 00:39:11,684
- that they've been made.
- That's right.
738
00:39:11,851 --> 00:39:13,686
Because there's a hero present.
739
00:39:13,853 --> 00:39:16,022
We're about to have the hero show up.
740
00:39:16,189 --> 00:39:19,108
I think the hero of the sequence
is about to show up.
741
00:39:19,275 --> 00:39:22,111
I mean, he litters.
He's kind of asking for it, you know?
742
00:39:22,278 --> 00:39:24,364
- Wasn't that the Juicy Fruit?
- This is the hero.
743
00:39:24,531 --> 00:39:27,116
This dog is so great.
744
00:39:28,326 --> 00:39:31,621
This is a real drug-sniffing dog.
745
00:39:31,788 --> 00:39:34,249
Did you have to use real drugs
to get him to stop?
746
00:39:34,415 --> 00:39:38,586
Well, actually, under that step
right there is...
747
00:39:38,753 --> 00:39:41,673
a bit of the essence of heroin,
they told me, the pheromone.
748
00:39:41,839 --> 00:39:44,425
It's not heroin,
but Robin Sweet was like:
749
00:39:44,592 --> 00:39:46,427
"What? You brought heroin
onto the set?"
750
00:39:46,594 --> 00:39:51,057
"No, no, no. It's just a pheromone or
something that they use to train them."
751
00:39:51,224 --> 00:39:54,060
- That's remarkable.
- That's great.
752
00:39:55,353 --> 00:39:57,605
- What?
- Just to make your job...
753
00:39:57,772 --> 00:39:59,566
even more difficult...
754
00:39:59,732 --> 00:40:02,986
we found out in research
that the dogs are trained to sit...
755
00:40:03,152 --> 00:40:04,696
when they smell something.
756
00:40:04,862 --> 00:40:07,282
When we were originally conceiving
of the sequence...
757
00:40:07,448 --> 00:40:09,450
we assumed
the dog would bark like crazy.
758
00:40:09,617 --> 00:40:12,370
But, of course, if you think about it...
759
00:40:12,537 --> 00:40:15,373
if you're a border cop,
you don't want everyone to know...
760
00:40:15,540 --> 00:40:17,500
that the dog has sniffed something.
761
00:40:17,667 --> 00:40:22,964
So, again, we were being
sort of accurate....
762
00:40:23,131 --> 00:40:24,799
Not "sort of." Actually accurate.
763
00:40:24,966 --> 00:40:29,846
But it makes it harder to communicate
what's going on in the scene.
764
00:40:30,013 --> 00:40:33,808
Absolutely. Seeing a dog sit does
not always mean it's found drugs.
765
00:40:33,975 --> 00:40:35,018
That's right.
766
00:40:35,184 --> 00:40:38,730
- And this is not really outside.
- What?
767
00:40:38,896 --> 00:40:41,691
- Where is this?
- I know. It's shocking.
768
00:40:41,858 --> 00:40:44,652
- On our stages.
- It's so beautiful.
769
00:40:44,819 --> 00:40:47,363
This... I love this lighting.
770
00:40:47,530 --> 00:40:49,866
It's something
that I don't think we mentioned.
771
00:40:50,033 --> 00:40:53,786
In episode one, in season two...
772
00:40:53,953 --> 00:40:56,080
Wexler McGill was a real location.
773
00:40:56,247 --> 00:40:58,499
And we shot inside the actual location.
774
00:40:58,666 --> 00:41:03,546
But when it came time
to shoot season three...
775
00:41:03,713 --> 00:41:05,214
that location was rented out.
776
00:41:05,381 --> 00:41:07,675
There was a company occupying
that space.
777
00:41:07,842 --> 00:41:12,472
So we built this entire office on stage...
778
00:41:12,639 --> 00:41:15,475
including this piece,
which we've never seen before.
779
00:41:15,642 --> 00:41:20,313
Which is the little back patio,
which is actually in the real location.
780
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,192
But Michael Novotny
and Steve Brown...
781
00:41:24,359 --> 00:41:28,738
and, really, I can't say enough
about our Art Department.
782
00:41:28,905 --> 00:41:32,325
Paula Dal Santo,
it's just an incredible group of people.
783
00:41:32,492 --> 00:41:35,286
They built this... They built this set.
784
00:41:35,453 --> 00:41:39,040
And it's actually much more fun
to shoot on than the location was.
785
00:41:39,207 --> 00:41:40,708
There's a lot of flexibility.
786
00:41:40,875 --> 00:41:45,213
It's given us some of the most iconic
images, like this one, for our season.
787
00:41:45,380 --> 00:41:46,673
I mean, it's just stunning.
788
00:41:46,839 --> 00:41:49,842
I love the tradition of these
two characters sharing a cigarette.
789
00:41:50,009 --> 00:41:51,469
That's right.
790
00:41:51,636 --> 00:41:53,846
We're trying
to bring back smoking, Mark.
791
00:41:54,931 --> 00:41:57,225
Watch out, Mad Men.
792
00:41:59,268 --> 00:42:01,604
It's not a problem, Giselle.
793
00:42:01,771 --> 00:42:05,233
And if I don't, it's instant jail, right?
794
00:42:06,401 --> 00:42:08,361
Lucky break.
795
00:42:09,529 --> 00:42:12,281
The exterior we, of course,
do still use the real location.
796
00:42:12,448 --> 00:42:13,950
- That's right.
- But, yeah...
797
00:42:14,117 --> 00:42:16,244
- The front exterior.
- The front exterior.
798
00:42:16,411 --> 00:42:18,121
But, yes, it's completely different.
799
00:42:18,287 --> 00:42:21,124
It doesn't look at all
like our set anymore.
800
00:42:21,290 --> 00:42:23,584
- They've changed it completely.
- Yeah.
801
00:42:25,044 --> 00:42:28,965
And I don't think it's giving anything
away to say that we're probably...
802
00:42:29,132 --> 00:42:31,217
never gonna go back...
Well, maybe we will.
803
00:42:31,384 --> 00:42:34,387
- Who knows? Who knows?
- Never say never.
804
00:42:34,554 --> 00:42:37,974
One condition of the PPD
is that my written confession...
805
00:42:38,141 --> 00:42:41,811
is immediately submitted
to the New Mexico Bar Association.
806
00:42:43,229 --> 00:42:46,566
And Marshall Adams, who is...
807
00:42:47,191 --> 00:42:49,193
just such an artist.
808
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,281
He does such beautiful,
beautiful work here.
809
00:42:53,448 --> 00:42:55,700
And he never wants to admit it.
810
00:42:55,867 --> 00:42:57,702
If you talk to Marshall,
he'll always...
811
00:42:57,869 --> 00:43:00,246
If you say something nice,
he'll always attribute...
812
00:43:00,413 --> 00:43:04,041
whatever you're observing to someone
else, but the truth is, Marshall is...
813
00:43:04,208 --> 00:43:07,086
the real deal.
He is just a wonderful DP.
814
00:43:07,253 --> 00:43:10,131
And he has such courage...
815
00:43:10,298 --> 00:43:14,510
because he's letting
a lot of these faces go dark.
816
00:43:14,677 --> 00:43:17,430
And not every
director of photography...
817
00:43:17,597 --> 00:43:19,849
would have the nerve
to do the things he does.
818
00:43:20,016 --> 00:43:23,936
Absolutely. I remember walking the set
with him, and I said:
819
00:43:24,103 --> 00:43:27,565
"How do you like silhouettes?" He said,
"I love them." I was like, "Done."
820
00:43:27,732 --> 00:43:29,400
"Really? Okay."
821
00:43:29,567 --> 00:43:32,445
It's gonna be
him and his cronies versus me.
822
00:43:32,612 --> 00:43:34,989
I tried to pay him a compliment
on my way in here.
823
00:43:35,156 --> 00:43:39,118
And he, like, immediately was talking
about Paul and Matt, his operators...
824
00:43:39,285 --> 00:43:40,828
who are amazing.
825
00:43:40,995 --> 00:43:43,539
But true to form,
he would not accept it.
826
00:43:43,706 --> 00:43:44,916
He has... Yes.
827
00:43:45,082 --> 00:43:46,793
We love you, Marshall. Just own it.
828
00:43:46,959 --> 00:43:48,795
You're brilliant and own it.
829
00:43:48,961 --> 00:43:52,548
I love the way you wrote this
and the way they play it...
830
00:43:52,715 --> 00:43:54,759
because he's really asking:
831
00:43:54,926 --> 00:43:56,636
"Why are you sticking with me?"
832
00:43:56,803 --> 00:43:59,639
- But you can't just ask that.
- Yeah.
833
00:44:00,807 --> 00:44:03,643
But I feel like it really comes through
in their performance.
834
00:44:03,810 --> 00:44:05,603
And it's such a sweet moment.
835
00:44:05,770 --> 00:44:08,606
We don't get a lot of sweet moments
with them, you know?
836
00:44:08,773 --> 00:44:10,358
But, yeah, yeah, it's...
837
00:44:10,525 --> 00:44:13,653
I just love this.
They're joined together, you know.
838
00:44:13,820 --> 00:44:15,530
I think they play it so well.
839
00:44:15,696 --> 00:44:17,740
Does it mean anything?
It looks like a big M.
840
00:44:17,907 --> 00:44:19,242
Yes.
841
00:44:19,408 --> 00:44:21,118
And she's accepting him
for who he is.
842
00:44:21,285 --> 00:44:22,662
- M for McGill.
- So lovely.
843
00:44:22,829 --> 00:44:25,373
- What a great job, John.
- Really fantastic.
844
00:44:25,540 --> 00:44:29,293
Great script, great actors,
great cinematography.
845
00:44:29,460 --> 00:44:31,254
- It's a pleasure.
- Excellent direction.
846
00:44:31,420 --> 00:44:34,215
All of you,
it's such a satisfying episode.
847
00:44:34,382 --> 00:44:36,175
It's got a little bit of everything.
848
00:44:36,342 --> 00:44:41,889
This was an episode
that was a big one for me...
849
00:44:42,056 --> 00:44:45,852
because it was the first one
that Vince wasn't involved in post on.
850
00:44:46,018 --> 00:44:49,981
And so I did the post
by myself completely.
851
00:44:50,147 --> 00:44:52,149
And that was a big deal for me.
852
00:44:52,316 --> 00:44:54,986
- Good job.
- Well done. Well done.
