I'm Jenna, I'm Kevin, and this is and 0:00:12.280 --> 0:00:17.000 that's what you really missed. I wasn't gonna eat the 0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:22.640 opportunity to say some other version hijacked what this show is. 0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:28.000 I was trying to think of it. It's fine. It's 0:00:28.040 --> 0:00:29.760 great to be here with you, Jenna. This is great 0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:32.400 to be here with you. This is very exciting. This is, 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:37.760 you know, another big episode for Argentina. It's right, yeah, 0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:40.640 these are our favorites because we can talk about ourselves, right, 0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:46.159 so much fun. This was a really fun one, especially 0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:51.120 because we get to see Kevin Dean. Yes, and I 0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:53.840 wish I went when we get to it, I want 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:57.440 to get some fan reaction. I want them to write 0:00:57.480 --> 0:00:59.360 in and tell us what they thought, because I have questions. 0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:04.679 Oh yeah. So this episode is season one, episode nineteen, 0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:10.320 dream On. It originally aired on May eighteenth, twenty ten, 0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:15.040 which was almost to the day, the year anniversary of 0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:18.479 the pilot premiering after the American Idol finale and how 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:22.600 far we've come? How far? Like you know, Ryan said, 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:27.560 I remember after one of those initial parties, after the 0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:32.280 premiere who I think Chris and Chenowith asked him, like, 0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:35.119 oh well, Kevin never like get up and sing and dance. 0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:37.680 He's like, no, that's never going to happen. I remember 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:39.720 that yep cut. Two year later, here I am. We 0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:45.080 are dancing tales oldest time. Don't put the idea in 0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:48.680 Ryan's head because he doesn't forget. I also watched a 0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:52.000 little bit of the Glee tour last night online and 0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:54.120 he brought back a lot of memories. Now I remember 0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:57.680 the songs that we performed because the other one is 0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:00.360 fresher in my mind. So this was a good good 0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.440 I was like, I forgot they did boys mine. I 0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:07.760 forgot they did we did too jobs. I forgot. Yeah, 0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:09.760 we didn't do as many shows, so the other one 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:13.440 was much more ingrained in our bodies. That's right, that's right. 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:17.800 So this time, so this was the anniversary and May 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.280 twenty to twenty second, we kicked off our first three 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:26.480 our three night gig at the Gibson rip Amphitheater at 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:30.400 Universal CityWalk, and that was fun because we were on 0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:32.280 home turf. It was nice to be sleeping in your 0:02:32.280 --> 0:02:35.240 own bed and then going to the theater or the 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:40.200 right as a theater and performing the show and it 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:44.960 was just such a fun, fun experience to be back 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.000 at home. And if you go to Universal Studios in 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:54.000 La now that's now Hogwarts, That's right. So the Gibson 0:02:54.240 --> 0:02:58.800 got knocked down to become Hogwarts. So whatever do you remember, though, Kevin? 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:03.800 In between shows one day we asked them I think 0:03:03.800 --> 0:03:05.880 it was Amber who was like, can we go on 0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:12.200 some of the rides? And they were like, um, maybe, 0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:13.800 and we were like, we all want to go on 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:17.720 our rights And then we started bugging everybody and they 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:20.639 got security to take us to like the back lot 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:25.639 tour and we we did Jurassic Park, right, I think 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:29.200 we Jurassic Park. We yep, Mommy was a big one. 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:31.799 We didn't we do the studio a lot tours? Did 0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:36.120 we do that? I don't remember. Yeah, we were very excited. 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:39.400 Were we doing matinees? I think we had done to 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:43.480 a two day, two show day to day do two 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:48.000 doche there we go there is yeah, which I know. 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:53.119 Jamie Lee Curtis said she wishes bands would do matinee's 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:58.880 on the performance side of it personally when you have 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:02.520 so normally cats don't have matinees on both glee tours. 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:04.640 We had matinees because they were really trying to get 0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:06.800 their money's worth for the allotted time they had us 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:11.600 under contract. Tell me what the audiences were like, Kevin, Look, 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:16.240 it's not just on our end doing a matinee. And 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:20.000 you can talk about this Janet as doing theater. Yeah, 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:23.680 where it is a slog to get your body geared 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:27.320 up to be at a ten by one pm. Correct, 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:31.159 because and especially when you're doing music or doing a concert, 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:34.200 you people normally make music late at night. It is 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:37.320 very much a nighttime thing. People are out there drinking 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:40.360 or doing whatever. And you feel that when you're on 0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:45.120 stage because the audience reacts completely differently and nine times 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:47.280 out of ten and audience in the middle of the 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:50.920 day also feels that way. And so when you're on stage, 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:52.760 you're feeding off what the audience is giving you and 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:55.200 at one pm they're not giving you a ten. I 0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:58.919 can turn that. I will say as a mom Aftu 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:02.400 concert sound lightful. No, Logistically it makes a lot of sense, 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:06.120 and especially for children's concerts, Yes, But performance and energy wise, 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:10.000 it's brutal. It's brutal. It is brutal, and especially because 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:12.200 if you've done a show the night before. That's a 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.680 half of the time of the turnaround you normally, Yeah, 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:19.440 you're flemmy, you're tired, it's still light out. There's just 0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:22.200 a lot of things, so I know, when the sun 0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.320 goes down, it's it's time to go, like you're you're 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:27.920 ready to go, And when the sun's up mid day, 0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:32.080 like you just had lunch and you're gonna go, it's weird. Yeah, 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:34.920 I agree. However, I will say this was a different tour, 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:40.000 but Toronto. If there's anybody in Toronto listening, greatest of 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:43.200 all time matinee crowd, yea we had they brought to 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:48.520 matinees and yes, if that matinee was not louder than 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:51.560 any of the evening shows because they were bringing it. 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:53.640 And I think if you look somewhere on YouTube, I 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.440 think I mentioned that as well. Well. The Canadians are 0:05:56.480 --> 0:06:00.000 just nice people, so they give us what we need. Yeah, 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:04.839 you're right, all right. So that was the tour where 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:10.400 there will be more tour later and um okay, I 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:13.480 have a lot of notes for this this episode, just 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:17.680 because there's so many memories that I didn't want to forget. Yes, 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:22.520 all right. This episode was directed by Joss Wheden. This 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:30.160 was pre Avengers right very early like post Buffy, Yes, um, 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:34.040 what was the other? It was shortly after this where 0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:39.279 he sort of took all those first two Avenger movies 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:44.320 character movies and then he crafted what we know today 0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:46.719 to be the Avengers and did the first Avenger movie. 0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:51.240 And he also was very musical. He was a very 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:55.560 musical guy. So this was like, you know, just directorially, 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:59.840 like right up his alley. And we also had he 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.920 interacted with us very differently than any director had up 0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:07.560 to this point. This was our nineteenth episode, and so 0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:09.280 we sort of had a rhythm. We had a series 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:14.520 of the same directors coming right now. And when he 0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:16.320 came in, because you and I had also like a 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:21.560 lot of sensitive scenes in this that he do you 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.560 remember this? He came to base camp, he pulled us 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:28.000 out for a acting rehearsal which never happened never, and 0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:29.680 took us up to the dance studio of the Tin 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:33.440 Shed and we worked on that scene with the tapping 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:38.280 and where you fall. Yeah, And he just showed so 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:43.280 much care and thoughtfulness, and I think you're able to 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:45.480 do that when you're just coming in for one episode 0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:50.240 like this and you have the time to plan and 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.480 do it, and the script is written. And I was 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:56.800 going to say, clearly the script was on time, Yes, exactly. 0:07:57.520 --> 0:08:01.240 M Yeah, we'll get to that. Uh, this is a 0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:05.160 big episode. There's a lot happening. Brian Ryan is here, 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:08.280 you know, Patrick Harris, who Josh has worked with UM 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:15.280 in other things, and Um, Kevin is a dance and 0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:21.480 Shelby Corkoran has lots to do Our Greenwitch, Dinna man 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:28.280 zeal And. Yeah. So the songs in this episode are 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:33.560 dream On by Aerosmith wild Um, the Safety Dance Dance 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:36.079 by Men Without Hats, and I dreamed a dream by 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:40.640 the castline. It's very exciting. And then dream a little dream. 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:44.040 That's right, Dream a little dream, Kevin. You had a lot, 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:47.000 a lot of recording to do, and this I did. 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:50.320 But it was one afternoon actually, oh it was one 0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:55.640 evening pre a Glee dinner at the Chateau Marmont. Oh really, yeah, 0:08:55.880 --> 0:09:02.760 pretty usual. I had a slight meltdown, which you know standard. Um. 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:06.440 Both my voice just didn't feel great, you know, some 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:11.760 days it just doesn't feel great. And yeah, and I 0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:14.440 did Safety Dance first, and because actually it was sort 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:19.000 of like talking, it was harder. It was harsher on 0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:21.800 my voice, I think, and then you get into this 0:09:21.920 --> 0:09:26.079 really soft and you're like, oh well my voice is 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:29.320 now gone. So but I was really excited. I remember 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:31.680 talking to Amber at that dinner about how I was 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:38.600 trying to make Dreamy Little dream Um sound older, you know, 0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:41.480 like do a different vibrato and things like that. I 0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:45.080 was very excited for the vocal challenge. It was okay, 0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.480 it was a great little number. Also, is that just 0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:51.640 the most like sampled and used song now and everything? 0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:55.320 I think every commercial I hear in every restaurant, It's 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:59.120 just everywhere. There's a billion different versions of it. Yes, Yes, 0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:12.839 that's a great there's an episode summary. Do you want 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:16.800 to talk about it? Sure? So, Will's former high school 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:21.360 nemesis classic Brian Ryan shows up and causes some trouble 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:24.760 for the glee club. Mm hmmm, that's no good. Then 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:29.760 Rachel struggles with a lifelong personal issue, plus Artientina your 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:32.280 favorites try to find a way for Artie to live 0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:36.680 his dream of walking again. Oh well dancing really right, 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:38.880 that's what it is. So let's get into it. Well, 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:42.480 let's talk about Brian Ryan. Let's talk about Brian Ryan. Um, 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:48.319 so we learned that that's Will's arch and ousts from 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:51.760 high school and he just happens to be on the 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:58.600 school board and he wants to cut the glee club. Well, yeah, 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:00.959 he wants to cut the glee club. He has to 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:04.199 cut funding from the arts somewhere, from some extracurricular thing, 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:07.320 and obviously, because he hates Will, it's most likely going 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:10.400 to come from there, that's right. So he comes in 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:13.920 and he talks to all of us and the a 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:17.160 choir room scene where he says, you know, most of 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:21.080 you probably want to pursue this and want to do this, 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:27.080 and you know you shouldn't. You you shouldn't because you're 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:31.720 not going to succeed. He's a drein killer. He had 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:34.679 us actually write down on pieces of paper what it 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:37.200 is we want already obviously wrote he wants to dance. 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:41.720 What were some of the other ones? Um, I have 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:49.160 a threesome, not have stretch marks, and and then Tina. 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:54.120 He breaks Tina basically yeah, and this was the first 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:56.960 time that I had to cry. This is one of 0:11:56.960 --> 0:12:00.240 the first of many that will come. See, here's the thing. 0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:04.600 You do something and you do it too well, that's right, 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:06.480 and they're just gonna keep having you do it because 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.320 Tina cried one time and she never stopped crying. Run 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:12.120 it into the ground. We did, Yes, that's we did. 0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:15.559 It's also not that easy for me to cry on you, 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:17.720 like I can do it, but it takes a while 0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:20.800 for me to get there. So this was not something 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:24.160 that was like in my back pocket, like I could 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:27.880 cry out of one eye like Rachel Barry. But anyway, 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:33.800 that's the beginning of that. So Will is like, what boo, 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:39.760 he's Brian, Ryan's wrong. So I just had a memory. Yeah, 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:43.880 do you remember when we filmed this, Neil Patrick Harris 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:47.960 had hosted the Oscars the day before. Well, this was 0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:52.080 also the one when we want to the parties the 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:58.120 night before, so everyone it was so if you go 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:02.880 watch that scene, Neil Patrick Harris looking fresh and rested, glowing, 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:08.760 had hosted the Oscars, the biggest award ceremony of the year, 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.600 and everybody, including him and us, we're out pretty late, 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:20.360 not party, praying, partying or drinking water. Yeah, no, we were. 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:24.520 And Mondays is the earliest call. So normally on Mondays 0:13:24.520 --> 0:13:26.400 you have like a girls have like a five thirty 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:30.280 am call. We were there, and we were in that 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.160 choir room. That was the first team we did with them. 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:36.840 It was the jacket one, right, yeah, first up, first 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:41.760 up for him and for Joss and for everybody. We 0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:46.480 were just looking puffy. Neil Patrick Harris got an Emmy 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:50.560 for this, so he's fine. And he did great, like 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:55.839 he looked glowy. Um. Yes, good memories though. I remember 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:58.880 sitting there being like, how is he doing this? I 0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:01.040 know we were like I I have no lines and 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:06.600 I'm barely truly, I think I think there was somebody 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:11.600 they will rename, real name, will remain Wow, Okay, they 0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:17.040 will remain nameless. You try and say that um fell 0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:21.720 asleep on the back wall. So this is why I remember. 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:25.920 Because there is a shot of us and somebody looks 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:33.640 very sleepy, more sleepy than the others. And yea, she 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:41.440 her eyes were barely. She loves to dance. She does 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.160 love to dance. She loves to dance. There's a couple 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:50.160 of girls who would regularly fall asleep in all right, 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.160 So they go they go to a bar, right, they 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:57.600 go to the bar. Umar because Weill was just like, look, 0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:00.160 you're wrong about this. I remember how good you or 0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.840 like and let me take you out and refresh your 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:08.040 memory about how rewarding this is. Like, let me just 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:11.600 remind you. And so Will takes him out to this bar, 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:19.000 reminds him how they used to sing together. Will and 0:15:19.520 --> 0:15:22.160 Brian talk about their crushes and Brian's like, oh, I 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:25.040 love that Terry Delmonico girl, and He's like, oh I 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:28.600 married her. What a last name? Right? It also makes 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:39.080 me hungry for steak. Um. And then and then they 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:41.120 do this. You know, there was a lot of live 0:15:41.200 --> 0:15:44.840 singing in this episode that never happens. So when they 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:48.760 are when Neil Patrick Harris is singing in the flashback scene, um, 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:52.480 he is singing live. And then when they go to 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.360 the bar and they do Piano Man, they're singing live again. 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:59.280 You're like, oh, yes, I have these musical theater pros 0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:02.160 sing live because they sound incredible. Do you know why 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:05.000 was that just the request or was that Joss or 0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:07.160 what do you remember? I'm not sure, but I think 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:11.240 it's because they're singing to track, like they're singing over 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:14.080 like piano Man was singing to the actual song. Right, 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.880 it's not supposed to sound super predict no, yeah, and 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:18.640 it sounds great and that could have been a Jos thing. 0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:21.640 Jos was very much about. Even though he's famous for 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:25.880 doing sci fi shows, he was very much into grounding 0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:34.120 this show correct. So then you know, Brian Ryan and 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:37.360 Will hit it off, and it was like, look, they're 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:42.120 doing lay miscasting. You should audition with me because I'm 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:45.240 going to audition, Like, let's reignite this flame. So they 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:48.040 go to audition for it, and all of a sudden, 0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:52.560 their nice little moment, you know, the reprieve of hating 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:56.040 each other is ended because they realized they're doing the 0:16:56.080 --> 0:17:00.240 same audition song, and so we get a very good duet. 0:17:00.600 --> 0:17:04.119 Brian Ryan copies Will. Yes, It's like, that's funny, I'm 0:17:04.160 --> 0:17:07.800 doing that. Yeah, that's funny, I'm doing that. And then 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:11.680 the guy says do it as a duet, which would 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:16.000 never happen. But I feel honored to have watched that number. 0:17:17.320 --> 0:17:23.680 It's wild. That is a crazy high song. And it 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:25.760 made me think of something that Ryan said in our 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:28.480 last interview with him, where people forgot that the show 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:31.000 was a satire. Right, you know, you watch a lot 0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:32.800 of it and you take it so seriously, like why 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:36.760 are they doing this? Watch Will Schuster and Brian Ryan 0:17:37.280 --> 0:17:40.800 do this number like Matt with his hand over his face. 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:44.640 This show is a satire people, right, that's right, that's right, 0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:47.639 And it is very much like a local theater thing, 0:17:47.680 --> 0:17:50.440 like yeah, I run the dry cleaners. You have thirty minutes? 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.240 Like can we I don't care? Can we just do this? 0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:55.959 You guys like who? So they do this incredible number. 0:17:56.080 --> 0:18:00.000 I also found out my boyfriend Austin performed this version 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:04.240 of this song in high school with his theater rival. No, 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:07.120 He's like, I did this song in high school. Lets 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.119 do it? I was like, was it this version? And 0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:12.040 then we were watching it together and he started doing 0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:15.440 the ad libs the Glee version ads like, oh, so 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:19.560 what was this version? Because I guess so, Oh my gosh, 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:23.120 sometimes you don't you're doing the Glee versions. Oh that's 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:24.840 so sad, and I'm so sorry that he had to. 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:34.040 That was it? Yeah? So Brian and Sue, um, we're 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:37.080 supposed to be like we're Cotton Glee Club. We've both 0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:40.080 were taking him down. We're taking the Little Shoester down. 0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:45.800 But Brian Ryan decides he changes his mind and decides 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:51.960 to cut some of the Cheerio's budget instead, and Sue 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:56.760 tells will U that he got the lead in lay 0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:59.680 Miss in front of the glee club and in front 0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:04.640 of Brian and Ryan, embarrassing his ass. And Brian got 0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:08.560 a townspeople role, which I will say I played a 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:14.600 townsperson in Lame is my freshman year of high school. Yes, um, 0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:22.520 and so Ray who Ray? Ray? So good? Um? But 0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:28.240 then what was the quote? He says to Brian says 0:19:28.320 --> 0:19:32.119 to Sue, you're an impressive woman. I can't tell how 0:19:32.160 --> 0:19:33.720 much she turned me on right now. You ever heard 0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:36.320 of the term anger sex? And she says it's the 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:38.959 only kind I know. Brian. Brian says, I should tell 0:19:39.000 --> 0:19:44.320 you I'm married, as she says, not a problem for me. Um. 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:48.800 So Brian decides to cut the program because he gets 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:54.000 mad it Will Um forgetting the part, and then we 0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:58.919 bribe him essentially without doing it, and Will gives Brian 0:19:59.040 --> 0:20:03.080 Ryan the part Jeanjean so that he can save his 0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:06.119 preciously clan and then we're back to square one like 0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:12.560 it never happened. It's a one off. Okay, he's not 0:20:12.680 --> 0:20:16.399 available for any other traps. MPa just needed that guest star, Immy, 0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:20.320 you know, he's like calls his agent's look, I need 0:20:20.320 --> 0:20:22.840 a guest star. I mean which show, yes, but like 0:20:22.880 --> 0:20:28.000 we know the one. So the other thing. One of 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:31.679 the other things that's going on this episode is during 0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:35.360 that classroom scene where Brian Ryan is having everyone write 0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:38.440 down their dreams, Artie writes and he wants to become 0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:42.040 a dancer because Tina took it out of the trash 0:20:42.119 --> 0:20:44.680 bin when I wanted to get my book bag. By 0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:47.159 the way, who calls it a book bag. It's like 0:20:47.200 --> 0:20:49.439 a pocket book. Yeah, that sounds like a Long Island thing. 0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:52.680 All right, sorry to interrupt you, No, you're good. And 0:20:52.720 --> 0:20:57.359 so Tina is like, come on, fess up, what's the 0:20:57.400 --> 0:21:00.760 situation here? Why first of all, to do lie about 0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:02.280 wanting to be an answer because that's not what already 0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:04.600 said originally, And then she's like, I got the proof. 0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:09.600 I have the receipts for you. And so then they 0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:12.080 get together and she's trying to help him live this 0:21:12.200 --> 0:21:17.120 fantasy and they decide to do a tap number with 0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:25.000 the little tapping things on the wheels, which, oh, it 0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:27.439 doesn't really work. The thing about a wheel is that 0:21:27.480 --> 0:21:29.760 it needs to be round, and to think about adding 0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:33.200 the little tapper things on is that they're not. And 0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:36.760 so it was were not the most practical, well thing, 0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:40.840 do you remember what? So this was. I'm glad it 0:21:40.840 --> 0:21:44.919 turned out this way. But initially Zach had said to 0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:49.000 the writer's room, what if we have Tina do a 0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:54.119 sexy tap number with like canes and top hats and 0:21:54.400 --> 0:21:58.520 have her and tap around. Now, I'm not the best tapper, 0:21:58.560 --> 0:22:00.159 but I can take it till I make it in 0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:02.760 an audition. You don't have to look like you're doing it. 0:22:06.400 --> 0:22:13.440 And it turned into this, it actually was, and we'll 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:15.720 get to dream. We'll dream of me. That's a soft 0:22:15.720 --> 0:22:18.320 shoe number. That's not a tap number. That was a 0:22:18.359 --> 0:22:21.520 soft shoe number. I don't have taps on my shoes 0:22:21.520 --> 0:22:25.800 and neither do Harry. But anyway, it's supposed to look 0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:28.280 like it. That's movie magic. For the storyline, Yeah, for 0:22:28.320 --> 0:22:32.600 the storyline regardless. I'm happy that this worked out because 0:22:32.600 --> 0:22:38.720 you get to dance. But um so, so you're tapping, 0:22:38.880 --> 0:22:41.400 You're trying to tap. Tina's trying to help you live 0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:47.239 out your dreams of being a dancer, and and you're like, 0:22:47.280 --> 0:22:49.360 I can do it, I can walk, I can get 0:22:49.440 --> 0:22:53.920 up and use these things from I have some crushes 0:22:54.119 --> 0:22:58.080 laying around, right, don't worry about it right, and you 0:22:58.200 --> 0:23:02.240 fall and it's really sad. I was really insecure about 0:23:02.240 --> 0:23:05.800 filming this scene, and so when Joss made us rehearse this, 0:23:05.880 --> 0:23:07.919 I was also, you know, is that thing that I 0:23:07.960 --> 0:23:09.880 was dreading the one scene in the script I didn't 0:23:09.880 --> 0:23:13.520 want to do. I didn't feel confident in my acting 0:23:13.520 --> 0:23:19.120 ability to be emotional and dramatic comedy is much more 0:23:19.160 --> 0:23:24.000 comfortable for me to live in the seriousness, especially when 0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:27.439 you're surrounded by so many good dramatic actors. When you 0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:31.080 are in a scene and Chris colfor can just cry 0:23:32.080 --> 0:23:35.000 and is so good, and I remember talking to Dante, 0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:37.359 one of the producers, being like, oh, I think that 0:23:37.440 --> 0:23:38.960 take was bad, and he had to sort of talk 0:23:39.040 --> 0:23:40.240 me off the ledge and he was like, do you 0:23:40.280 --> 0:23:42.720 think Chris is better than you because he can cry? 0:23:42.760 --> 0:23:46.439 And I was like, yes, he's better than me, because 0:23:46.520 --> 0:23:51.399 he's better than me. And while I do think he 0:23:51.600 --> 0:23:54.800 is much better than me, Dante said something as executive 0:23:54.800 --> 0:23:56.639 producers sort of you need to step in and do 0:23:56.680 --> 0:23:58.919 these things every now and then and calm your actor 0:23:59.080 --> 0:24:03.360 headcase down, which was me, and you know, just gave 0:24:03.400 --> 0:24:05.560 me some nice notes of being like, no, that's not 0:24:05.600 --> 0:24:07.320 how this works. You're bringing this, this and this and 0:24:07.359 --> 0:24:11.440 blah blah blah, and Joss equally was the sweet about it. Yep, 0:24:11.560 --> 0:24:14.560 and like, because it was a really sensitive dramatic scene, 0:24:14.840 --> 0:24:17.240 Joss would come in and talk like this and he 0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:18.680 would just he would get down when I was on 0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:20.879 the floor, he would he would get down on his 0:24:20.960 --> 0:24:22.960 knees and like just whisper in my ears like okay, 0:24:23.240 --> 0:24:26.439 I'll try this, and would just say a word. And 0:24:26.520 --> 0:24:28.680 it sounds crazy right now, but when you're doing those 0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:30.439 scenes and you're sowing your head and you're in the 0:24:30.520 --> 0:24:32.879 moment and you're doing it over and over again, you're like, 0:24:32.960 --> 0:24:35.120 am I giving enough? I have nothing enough to give? 0:24:35.440 --> 0:24:37.280 And he'll come in and be like just think of 0:24:37.960 --> 0:24:42.160 this and he'll say where you're like, you're right, that 0:24:42.240 --> 0:24:45.800 change and he did that every scene. Great. But we 0:24:45.840 --> 0:24:48.679 got through that scene and I thought you and I 0:24:48.720 --> 0:24:50.440 did a really nice job of this whole episode, Jenna. 0:24:50.480 --> 0:24:51.960 I was really proud of this nice. I thought you 0:24:52.000 --> 0:24:54.800 did a good job. I thought Josh really helped to 0:24:54.840 --> 0:24:57.800 guide us because we were still so green in terms 0:24:57.840 --> 0:25:00.280 of all of this. And now I look at back 0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:04.560 at that and I'm like, I cringe, but at my choices. 0:25:04.840 --> 0:25:07.160 But I wasn't looking at it from a director's point 0:25:07.200 --> 0:25:10.320 of view, which I would now, I was looking at 0:25:10.359 --> 0:25:11.879 it from an actor's point of view, which is like 0:25:12.040 --> 0:25:15.520 totally different. Um I wish I had that, you know, 0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:19.560 in hindsight, that like foresight basically yeah, But um no, 0:25:19.640 --> 0:25:21.479 I thought we did a great job in terms of 0:25:21.520 --> 0:25:24.520 like where we were in our lives and like and 0:25:25.040 --> 0:25:27.840 just having the support we did. I was nervous for 0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:30.120 that number as well, or for that scene in Jos 0:25:30.240 --> 0:25:32.239 would be like is there anything you need? Is there 0:25:32.280 --> 0:25:35.320
