Flipped (2020) s01e03 Episode Script

You know what all of this is, right?
Mm-hmm.
And you know what we have to do?
Mm-hmm.
We can't do anything stupid.
No.
No. You're absolutely right.
We have to do the right thing.
Exactly.
The right thing.
Barry, can I see the crane shot again?
Sure thing.
Yeah, Barry
I don't know if it's lighting or whatever,
but it's coming off a little flat.
Hey, uh, Bare-Bare?
Can we be a bit more artful with it?
This is our money shot,
and we really need it
to fly off the screen.
Copy.
Resetting.
Now, that's what I'm talking about.
Great adjustment, Bare.
Mm-hmm.
How's it going down there, Carl?
Hey, Mrs. Melfi.
We've made some progress.
Uh, as soon as we finish excavating,
you should be able to fit
a hundred bottles down here.
-A hundred?
-Mm-mm, no.
No. Here-here's the thing, Carl.
Southern Home magazine explains that
the most requested newest home amenity
is a thousand-bottle wine cellar.
See, no one's gonna ask for
a hundred-bottle wine cellar.
No one's gonna buy a place
-with a hundred B-W-C, Carl.
-No!
My fear is if-if we keep digging,
we're gonna undermine the house.
And by "undermine," you mean
Yeah, I don't think
we're following you, bud.
The house is gonna fall into the hole.
The hole that I'm digging right now.
Is this about money, Carl?
Uh, no, it's pretty much
just about gravity.
'Cause we're not afraid
to throw money at this.
Carl, tell us what you need
to come up with a plan B.
Yeah, there's no, there's no plan B!
This is part of the process.
-Yeah.
-The part I hate.
Well, sure, sure, but I tell you what.
You got to stand your ground
if you want to see your vision through.
-Yeah, we're the quarterback.
-Mm-hmm.
And the quarterback
of an American sports team
has to be able to take the,
you know, the thing,
and throw the, throw it, uh
down in the direction of the other g--
the guys that are on the same team as you
and they're,
and the other people are trying to catch
it
at the same time,
but you're trying to throw it
to the same color and then they are
You know, everyone's playing the game.
-Mm-hmm.
-Yeah.
Everyone's playing the game.
I got some bad news today.
The septic tank is rusted through,
and we have to replace it.
Now, unfortunately, that puts us
about $3,000 over budget,
which means I have to call the owners
and break the bad news.
Never a call I like to make.
Hello.
Hi, there! It's Cricket.
From your home renovation.
Hey, how's everything going?
Okay, now, I know you're the techno whiz,
but why are we making this phone call
standing directly next to each other?
Because in editing
I'm gonna split screen this
so it looks like we're
in two different locations.
Oh, I always forget about editing.
One last thing.
Won't they recognize that you're Jann
and not the client?
That's a good point.
Okay, I got a fix
Still rolling, still rolling!
Ooh-ooh!
Good.
We got some bad news.
Unfortunately, we need
to replace the septic tank.
Oh, boy, now, how much
is this gonna set me back?
About $3,000.
Oh, yikes. Well, Cricket,
I trust your judgement. I say we do it.
Thank you so much.
Thank you for your trust.
And I know you're gonna love
your new septic tank.
Great job.
Thank you.
Well, that went a lot better
than anticipated.
Look, I never like to make those calls
or go over budget, but in this case,
I just didn't have any other choice.
And cut.
Cricket and I are new to the desert,
so it was important for us
to include the culture
and spirit of the land into our new home.
Oh, yeah. And Jann is
the artist of the family,
so when he wanted
to craft recovered objects
from the desert into a mantelpiece,
I said, "You get to work, Picasso."
Voilà!
And this is why I married him.
It's beautiful. Walk me through it.
Okay, well, it all started when I found
an indigenous animal skull.
I-I believe
it's several hundred years old.
-Ooh! Maybe an ancient coyote?
-Yeah.
It's a dog.
Lots of dead dogs out here.
Uh-oh, no.
No, no. We'll cut that out.
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
You guys don't talk.
It's just Jann and me.
-Yeah. Thank you, though.
-Thank you.
Mm-hmm, yeah. Now, I love the look
of this antique glass I found in the sand.
It catches the light so beautifully.
Oh, it certainly does. It's reminiscent
of an old Edison-style light bulb.
It's a meth pipe. Crystal meth.
What are you--?
I just got done saying no chitchat!
-Yeah.
-Okay?
You're just here to fill up the space.
We'll get your reaction shots in a moment.
-Thank you.
-At which point, you still
-won't talk-- got it?
-Yeah.
And these beautiful brass fittings--
they're from the railroad era, I think.
Back when this was a major railway hub.
Bullet casings-- .22s.
Yeah, people come out here
to shoot their dogs all the time.
Usually when they're on meth.
What the holy hell are you two doing?!
Okay, let's cut.
Hey, guys, great work. Thank you so much.
"Great work"?!
They ruined the whole thing!
Well, take your water bottles!
Which shot do you like best?
I really like my smile in this one,
but the lighting's pretty good
in this one.
I've got my love goggles on,
so I think you look great in both.
Well, that was the perfect answer.
To us.
To our vision.
To destiny.
And screw you, Chazz and Tiffany Connelly.
Oh, you two are going down.
Ah, I get it, I get it.
No, I see what you've done here.
It's very cool.
Oh, you know I'm gonna have
to kill you, though, right?
Mmm.
Is it organic?
It makes such a diff-- Javi,
I tell you, it makes a difference.
Very good. Oh, no. Please tie them up.
