And we were deep in the edit process. And I got a call from Bella, the boss, my boss. And she's like, I want to see this show. And I'm like, well, it's your show, so please come in. And, you know, it's hard for her to keep track of all the shows and all the scripts. And I was impressed that she wanted to come in.

And I have no idea what she's going to say or do. And it's pretty violent. And it ends and she goes, I want to see another one.

And I really didn't know what to do.
