But I think, I mean, I guess it's a kind of, you took her advice, as it were, and you interpreted it for yourself. And I think that's a great lesson. I'm so glad to hear that your thoughtful approach to making a better show, you know, because it's not always perfect. That first pass at a script is often in need of a lot of work, right? Exactly.

It's a fantastic show. I was watching it, and I was watching the intro number that you do, We Belong Together, which I love that number.
