[Jacob Kane]

Hey. Hey, Mom. Yeah, yeah, I know it's late. I'm sorry. I just wanted to call you before the police do. There's been an accident. No, no, I'm fine. A couple of scratches, but. Mom, are you sitting down? Yeah, I think it would be best if you did. It's dad. He. He was thrown from the car. He must not have had his belt on. Mom, dad is. He didn't make it.

[Eli Reyes]

Who.

[Jacob Kane]

Who was driving?

[Eli Reyes]

Well, I. I was, but it's not my fault.

[Jacob Kane]

It.

[Eli Reyes]

Mom, it's raining and the car just

[Jacob Kane]

started sliding and I.

[Eli Reyes]

No, no, mom, please. Mom, please, please don't go mom, please. Thank you.

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

Jacob, that was great, but did you prepare any of the material we sent you?

[Jacob Kane]

So I looked it over. I just don't think that it really resonated with the character. None of the dialogue really showed the gravitas that I think he deserves.

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

Jacob, Jacob, we appreciate the care put into your craft, but production really has a singular vision for this character.

[Jacob Kane]

Look, I get that there's a vision and all, but the lines that were sent to me were just so pedestrian.

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

You are aware that the writer is sitting at this table, correct?

[Jacob Kane]

Hey, I am sorry. Look, I didn't mean anything by it. All writers have to start somewhere, right?

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

Jacob, we can't use alternate dialogue. The script is locked. We need to hear the lines as written. If you could please just start again with the provided material whenever you're ready.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Okay, so you didn't do the audition then?

[Jacob Kane]

No, I did do. Just wasn't what they wanted. They wanted some brainless nobody to recite their amateur script exactly as.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Right, okay, yeah. You mean like, I don't know, an actor then?

[Jacob Kane]

Look, if they wanted an actor, I would have heard back by now.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

You do realize how pretentious you sound when you get like this, right? Like you have to hear that, right?

[Jacob Kane]

I wouldn't call it pretentious, per se. I prefer to look at it as having artistic integrity.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Okay, well, yeah, all of that, whatever that is, it doesn't pay the bills, Jacob. And also, I don't think it's even possible to say per se without being pretentious. So.

[Eli Reyes]

Look, I'm not gonna waste my time

[Jacob Kane]

reciting derivative bullshit for a part as an unnamed victim on some random crime scene.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

The character could have come back in future episodes and it would lead to more work.

[Jacob Kane]

Uh, no, I read the script. That character is dead before the theme song plays.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Okay, fine, then I don't know, have you given any thought to picking up some like, side work or something? You know, to subsidize your artistic integrity, you know?

[Jacob Kane]

Like a job?

[Friend]

Yeah, like a job.

[Jacob Kane]

I don't know, man.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Look, I know it's rough, but you can have a day job and still

[Friend]

make time for acting.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

I mean, look, my job never stopped me from doing music. I'm able to do both.

[Jacob Kane]

Yeah, about that. What is it that you even do, Jacob?

[Paramedic Jody]

You.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

You know this. I'm in supply chain management.

[Jacob Kane]

Right? Yeah, I know we talked about it, but like, what does. What does that mean?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Is it not obvious, Jacob? I. I manage supply chains.

[Jacob Kane]

Uh huh. This whole time? I thought you supplied chains to management.

[Eli Reyes]

What?

[Jacob Kane]

I don't know, like bike shops, stuff. Places that need chains.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

You're kidding, right?

[Server Karen Neat]

Hi.

[Jacob Kane]

Who had the blt?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Oh, right here. Thank you.

[Server Karen Neat]

You bet.

[Jacob Kane]

So you had the egg. That's me.

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

The egg.

[Jacob Kane]

Thank you.

[Paramedic Jody]

Of course.

[Phil (Landlord)]

Enjoy.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Did you just order one egg? Yeah, just one singular egg.

[Jacob Kane]

Struggling artists, remember?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Homie, I'm buying. You can get more than one egg. You know that, right?

[Jacob Kane]

Look, you don't need to do that.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Apparently I do. Otherwise you're going to order breakfast like a weirdo. Now you're done. You're already done. And now you're just watching me eat. No, I got it.

[Jacob Kane]

Fine. Thank you.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

You're welcome. I don't mind. Honestly, it's. It's more for me than you anyway. I come here a lot. Like.

[Jacob Kane]

Right.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

This is one of my favorite spots. And you're kind of embarrassing me.

[Eli Reyes]

Okay.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

With your egg.

[Jacob Kane]

Okay. Single.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Single egg.

[Jacob Kane]

You might be right about that survival job, by the way. With mom and everything. I could probably use a change of pace. At least for a little while. Hey, is your place hiring?

[Paramedic Jody]

No. No.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

You would. You would hate supplying chains. The links and the hooks and the hoops and stuff, but. But I can help you with your resume. I mean, I know all the corporate buzzwords.

[Friend]

Right?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

We can knock it out. It'll be super easy. Promise.

[Jacob Kane]

Thanks.

[Thug]

Yeah.

[Jacob Kane]

Might take you up on that.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Do you need a lift to the cemetery tonight, or.

[Friend]

You said.

[Jacob Kane]

Nah, I'll walk over later. Thank you, though. You know, it's really crazy. Mom's been gone for a week now and still. Still nothing from Jordan?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Yeah. When was the last time you talked to him?

[Jacob Kane]

About two years. Man, I don't know. I don't know. I just thought he would show up for something like this. Yeah, so did Mom. You know, towards the end, there were. There were some nights where my mom would actually call me Jordan.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Well, I mean, you guys are twins. And she was really confused at the end. Makes sense that she would get you two mixed up, but. I know it's hard, you know?

[Jacob Kane]

Yeah. Yeah, I know it isn't right, but I. I would actually play along sometimes. I don't know. I thought it could actually make her proud for once.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Ok, no, Jacob, don't. You can't go there. Don't do that. You know, she loved you. And everybody could tell she was proud of you. I mean, she talked about it all the time. Don't. Don't do that.

[Jacob Kane]

It was still different with him. She would constantly bring him up, wondering how he was doing. She missed him. I. I still miss him. Still my brother.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

I know. And I'm. I'm sorry.

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

Really.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Oh, it's looking. It's looking pretty bad out there, dude. You're sure you don't want to ride?

[Eli Reyes]

Dude, I'll be fine.

[Jacob Kane]

I'm not a child.

[Friend]

Are you sure?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Cuz you sort of eat like one, so.

[Jacob Kane]

Oh, shit.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Oh, who is it? Casting? Maybe. Maybe you got the part? Possibly.

[Eli Reyes]

No.

[Jacob Kane]

Landlord.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Oh, that's awesome. I didn't even realize you auditioned for a landlord. That's. That's. That's incredible.

[Jacob Kane]

Fucking idiot. My landlord. Should I pick it up?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Um, yeah, probably.

[Jacob Kane]

Jacob Kane. Hey, Phil, how are you?

[Phil (Landlord)]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

[Shahan]

Slow down.

[Jacob Kane]

Take it easy. Yes, yes, that is correct.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

He sounds mad.

[Jacob Kane]

Look, I'm sorry, okay? I'm a few months late. I'll have your money soon.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Jacob.

[Jacob Kane]

I actually had a big audition today that I think went really shitty. Well, it did not go well. I'll have the rent in no time.

[Eli Reyes]

Will you? I don't think you will.

[Jacob Kane]

Whoa, let's not get too hasty, Phil. Please calm down. Okay, okay, I'm on my way. I'm right down the street. I'll be there in one minute.

[Eli Reyes]

Don't do anything. Bye. Bye.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

So, how do we think that went?

[Officer Ben Akira Spencer]

Oh, great.

[Jacob Kane]

Just great. He said he's about to chain up the door to my apartment. Wonder who supplied him with that. Fucking asshole. I need to go.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Cool. Do you want me to, I don't know, order you an egg to go?

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

Maybe.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Maybe you'll get hungry later. Or maybe he wants an egg.

[Server Karen Neat]

I don't know.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

He seems like an egg guy. Possibly.

[Jacob Kane]

Wait there. No, I ate.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Yeah, my food.

[Eli Reyes]

I'll talk to you later.

[Jacob Kane]

Okay. Thanks for the feast.

[Friend]

Yeah.

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

See ya. Wait, Jacob, before you go, you know I have your back, right? Like, no matter what happens, I'll. I'll cover for you if need be. You. You know that, right?

[Jacob Kane]

Yeah.

[Eli Reyes]

Okay.

[Jacob Kane]

Fuck this slow ass elevator.

[Eli Reyes]

I don't have time for.

[Phil (Landlord)]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

[Eli Reyes]

What are you doing?

[Phil (Landlord)]

What does it look like I'm doing? Changing your locks.

[Eli Reyes]

Yeah, I can see that. But why?

[Phil (Landlord)]

You know why.

[Eli Reyes]

Look, I'm really sorry. Just give me. Give me a little more time.

[Jacob Kane]

You know I'm good for it.

[Phil (Landlord)]

It's quite evident that you are not good for it. You're behind three months.

[Jacob Kane]

I know. I. I've just been dealing with a lot more.

[Eli Reyes]

My mom.

[Phil (Landlord)]

I don't care about your mom.

[Eli Reyes]

But.

[Jacob Kane]

But she's dead.

[Phil (Landlord)]

Unless she left you a little cash to pay the rent. I Don't give a shit. That I didn't mean it like that. I am sorry for your loss, but that doesn't change anything with this.

[Eli Reyes]

Come on.

[Phil (Landlord)]

Quit looking at me that way. Fine. You know what? Fine. I'll give you two weeks.

[Jacob Kane]

Two weeks.

[Phil (Landlord)]

Perfect. Two weeks to get me everything you owe.

[Jacob Kane]

It should not be a problem. Not. Not a problem at all. Thank you so much. I'll have the money for you very soon. No worries at all, Phil. Not a problem.

[Phil (Landlord)]

Yeah, right. Two weeks.

[Jacob Kane]

Two weeks. Two weeks. This is going to be a problem. Hey, Mom. I'm gonna have to cut this short. Really sucks out here. I brought flowers this time, but they're just gonna blow away. I'll bring them back next time. Shouldn't have taken Eli up on that ride. I had another audition today and got another rejection. They were a way tougher audience than you were. I'll never forget how I used to film those stupid little plays I would put on in the living room. You'd tell everyone I was going to be the next De Niro. You're always my biggest fan. And look where I am now. My biggest role is still that car insurance commercial where I had that one line.

[Eli Reyes]

But what about my deductible?

[Jacob Kane]

I think I need a reset. I don't want to be known as that guy who almost booked the Hulu show, or Jacob, who needs a loan to cover rent. I keep trying to convince myself this is just a rough patch, but maybe it's just. Maybe it's just my life. Eli's still trying to convince me to pick up a steady day job. As agonizing as that sounds,

[Paramedic Jody]

just not

[Jacob Kane]

sure if that will be enough. Hello? Who's there?

[Producer (Dan Morris)]

You.

[Eli Reyes]

Hey. Stop. I know it's you. Talk to me. Damn, Is you.

[Jacob Kane]

I knew I saw you.

[Jordan Kane]

You need to get out of the car now.

[Eli Reyes]

Are you kidding me? Jordan.

[Jordan Kane]

Jacob, get out.

[Eli Reyes]

I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen you in

[Jacob Kane]

the last seven years, and all you

[Eli Reyes]

have to say to me is get out? Why are you even here? Is your guilt finally catching up with you?

[Jordan Kane]

I didn't.

[Eli Reyes]

She kept asking for you, you know. Where's Jordan?

[Jacob Kane]

Is Jordan coming?

[Eli Reyes]

I had to lie to her, tell

[Jacob Kane]

her you were on your way, that you.

[Eli Reyes]

That you got held up. Hello? This is the part where you explain things to me. Where the fuck have you been?

[Jordan Kane]

I'm sorry, Jacob.

[Jacob Kane]

Oh, okay, then I guess if you're sorry, I'll just hop on out and

[Eli Reyes]

go back to taking care of everything on my own.

[Jacob Kane]

That beard looks stupid, by the way.

[Jordan Kane]

Just get out,

[Thug]

Kane. We just want to talk.

[Server Karen Neat]

Roll down the window.

[Jacob Kane]

Who are these people?

[Jordan Kane]

Listen to me. Whatever happens next, keep your face down. Don't tell them your name. Don't tell them. Whatever Hargrove wants, it can wait.

[Thug]

Hargrove disagrees. You're out of time.

[Server Karen Neat]

Oh, did this guy bring you free flowers?

[Jordan Kane]

We're in a cemetery.

[Server Karen Neat]

No, no. That kind of name calling is uncalled for.

[Thug]

Who's this with you?

[Jordan Kane]

He's nobody. A friend of a friend who knew my mother.

[Server Karen Neat]

A friend of a friend, really? Hey, buddy. Who are you?

[Jordan Kane]

Is your belt on?

[Eli Reyes]

What?

[Jacob Kane]

No, it's not.

[Eli Reyes]

Christ, Jordan. Did you just run him over? Jesus Christ. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. You just fucking hit that guy. What do we do? What do we do?

[Server Karen Neat]

Oh, fuck.

[Eli Reyes]

Oh, fuck. Oh, fuck. Oh, fuck. What the fuck is going on?

[Jordan Kane]

Jordan, listen to me carefully. I need to drop you off somewhere far away from here. You cannot come back.

[Eli Reyes]

What are you talking about? Who are those people?

[Jordan Kane]

There's no way I can explain it to you. You need to trust me. This is for your own good.

[Eli Reyes]

Trust you? I barely even know you.

[Jordan Kane]

There's about 800 bucks in cash below the scene. Use that to get away.

[Eli Reyes]

Stop.

[Jordan Kane]

I'll drop you off. It.

[Eli Reyes]

Tell me what's going on.

[Jordan Kane]

I told you, I can't.

[Eli Reyes]

That isn't good enough. I want to fucking answer. Stop interrupting me. Tell me what's going on. Look out.

[Phil (Landlord)]

Ow.

[Jacob Kane]

Jordan, are you good? God damn it.

[Eli Reyes]

Oh, Jordan. Jordan. Help me open this. Hang on. The door's stuck. Jacob, you need. Just stay with me. I'm gonna get you out of here. Can you roll down the window? You gotta watch your back.

[Jordan Kane]

My job.

[Eli Reyes]

This is all my fault. My job. Okay. It's fine. I'll use your briefcase. Look away. Stupid window. Come on. No, don't apologize. You can apologize after we get you out of the car. Jordan, you still haven't told me where the fuck you've been. You can't just. Just get out of it. Jordan. Jordan, please. Jordan, wake up. Jordan, wake up. Jordan, please. I just got your back. Just wake up. Please. Just wake up. Gps 13.

[Paramedic Jody]

Multiple aspirations?

[Friend (Supply Chain Manager)]

Possibly.

[Paramedic Jody]

Let's get him on. 13 meters of zero and prep for incubation. Stats drop below 92.

[Thug]

Where.

[Jacob Kane]

Where am I?

[Officer Ben Akira Spencer]

Sir, you were in a serious accident. You're lucky. Most folks in a crash like that would be done for. The only thing we recovered was your briefcase, Officer.

[Paramedic Jody]

What?

[Eli Reyes]

The only thing.

[Jacob Kane]

My brother.

[Eli Reyes]

My brother was driving. I have to get him. I.

[Paramedic Jody]

Sir, you need to sit still. You're in an ambulance. You're safe. Take a deep breath with me, okay?

[Thug]

Okay.

[Jacob Kane]

Shit.

[Paramedic Jody]

Hi, I'm Jody. I'm an emt. We're taking care of you. We're in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. Sir, can you tell me your name?

[Jacob Kane]
