THE CREW BECAUSE AS A LITTLE KID, THE CREW MEMBERS WOULD ALWAYS BE
LIKE, "BUDDY, YOU GOT HELP ME OUT. YOU KNOW, I GOT TO GET THE BOOM
OVER THERE CAN YOU JUST HOLD YOUR LINE? I'M LIKE, "SURE, SIR."
SO I'M A REAL PEOPLE PLEASER WHEN IT COMES TO THE WORK ON THE SET, SO I LIKE TO, YOU
KNOW, FACILITATE SHOTS AND STUFF THAT WORK. SO I LIKE THE ACTING BUT I LIKE
TO PILE ON WITH THE OTHER STUFF AND MAKE THE CREW'S DAY SHORT OR THE ACTOR'S DAY SHORT

TO GET IT -- GET ON WITH IT WITH HIS KIDS AND HIS WIFE AND KEEP THEM ALIVE AND BE A
A PROVIDER AND THEN HE -- YOU KNOW, AND HE'S PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT
DUMBER THAN HE THINKS HE IS, SO HE BACKS INTO SOME BAD DECISIONS, BUT HE THINKS

CORNERS AND STUFF LIKE THAT. Jimmy: I THINK IT'S ALSO -- IT'S BECAUSE I THINK HE'S
HONEST HE'S HONEST, EVEN WITH THE -- SAYING THE AWFUL TRUTH
