Yes. Okay, here it is. She's most recently in Borderlands, which comes out August 8th, which is why she's here. August 9th, excuse me, comes out August 8th or August 9th. We'll get to that in a second, but it's out in the first 10 days in August. And this movie Borderlands, based on the very popular video game series, which I did not play, but the PR people with Gina were nice enough to send me to a local movie theater to watch.

And then there was like an armed security officer sitting next to me, basically. And he told me to put away my phone. So I did. Because when someone has a gun, you just do what they ask you to do.
