Whoa. Are we going? We're going. Oh, we're already going. Yeah. Oh, shit. I didn't know we were going. I would have puffed up my cheeks and stuff.

That seems like it's right. I was not invited to the pool area to like splash around or anything I was kind of there working
Okay. 32 million. That's very low. What was the script you were working on? Can you say? Yeah, I can say. It never happened. We were writing a version of The Incredible Shrinking Man for Eddie. It was a remake of the old idea for Eddie. And the idea was that he was a Vegas... You're not going to cross the reframe with this? Thank you. Your love handles are really killing me. Good Lord, that belt is ruined. It's not the worst wine I've ever smelled, but... Joel McHale's wine? Joel McHale brought it. Joel McHale's a wine enthusiast. I didn't know that. Of the highest order. McHale's, yeah. McHale's an expert on wine. You must know that, right? Oh, yeah, he's good. We were working on a... It's pretty good. If it's from McHale, it's going to be good.

Very funny dude. I like that guy a lot. Cute kid. He's a very cute kid. He's a real cute kid. Yeah. We're not going to talk about the man just dressed in my outfit? Well, it's mine. Let's address it. Yeah. Are you flattered? Are you creeped out? What's the feeling? I like it a lot. I would wear that if you bought me one. So we're out at Eddie's house. We get out to Eddie's house. To get to Eddie's house, for starters, there's like a gate like Jurassic Park. Uh-huh. You know? Like to keep out a T-Rex or something like that.
So we get to the gate and the guy asks you like, he's got his hand on his Glock. Whoa. The security guy. It's not like lightweight security guys. You know, sometimes there's security guys, like Trader Joe's security or something is not a big deal. Sure. How are these pictures existing? When you go to Eddie's house, there's a... It's Google Maps. The guys already have their hand on the weapon. Damn. And they're like, what are you doing here? And you say, I'm going to see Eddie Murphy. And they're like, why? Whoa. Yeah. Like we're working on. I'm not in a book or something. We're we're working on we're working on a version of The Incredible Shrinking Man for him. And they're like, do you think that's a good idea?
Not a gun. We're like, yeah. We're like, he's like a Vegas magician is like David Blaine. So everybody thinks he's doing it as a bit. But it turns out he's been like cursed by a real magician.
