You know, I cried like everywhere. And I guess at some point I probably shed the embarrassment that most kids would have probably felt. I was kicked out of preschool before that because I locked my mom in the closet because I didn't want to be away from my mom.

Yeah. And I – so I probably at some point got over the probably expected humiliation a kid would have about kind of being very emotional in front of people. It's kind of weird to think that that's my job now. Like I'm kind of like on sets with a lot of oftentimes very, you know, tough people, you know, like crying in front of them, you know, in the movie or whatever.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, you know, my teacher, when I get to school, my teacher was, you know, I'm actually sorry. She was a nice, very such a nice person. But, you know, she even told me one day, Jesse, I had a bad weekend. Do not cry today. And I remember just like desperately trying to stifle it because she had a bad weekend.
