Alan Cumming

He kept going and he did his job, but he was also like, this feels weird because you're taking advantage of actors' commitment to their art, which sucks.

No, I mean, and that's the thing.

I mean, Maura says it at the end.

She she she calls him a bad man or whatever.

But then she says, like, it's the name of the show.

You know, she so I think she, you know, but she also just needs it is more than anything, a reality check on her own ability to judge people's character.

I don't, yeah.

I would never.

Yeah.

There was another one called scare tactics where they would like create crazy, scary situations.

Like,

Somebody would pick, you know, and it would always be like one person would be in on it and they would bring their friend to like the desert for a party and then like aliens would invade.

And they would, and it was so funny because what you saw, they put people in really scary situations that were, you know, otherworldly, like a ghost or a zombie or an alien.

But what was amazing is that often people's reactions were pretty unentertaining.

Because like when somebody is really scared, especially men, they shut down.

It's like you go into fight or flight.

So you don't get like somebody screaming like, ah, it's more like, oh God, I'm going to die.

Or, oh my God, aliens are real.

I need to, it's like you shut down.

So it actually became a kind of uninteresting show.
