A very dark skinned man, athletic build and tall introduces himself. He appears to be some type of fitness instructor.
MOZU
(In African accent)
Hello! I am MOZU!
PATRICK
Oh. Hello, Mozu.
MOZU
(In very clear American accent)
How we doin'?
There is a slight awkward break and short pause before he continues, laughing.
MOZU CONT'D
Haha! Got you! Thought I was African, didn't you?
PATRICK
(awkwardly)
Wouldn't have mattered!
MOZU
That one always gets people.
PATRICK
How often do you do that?
MOZU
A lot.
PATRICK
Oh. That is funny.
MOZU
Yes, it is. Haha! I'm from Michigan.
PATRICK
Oh—which part?
MOZU
Detroit. 8 Mile.
PATRICK
Oh!
MOZU
Aha! Got you again! Oh, I'm kidding.
Suburbs. Near the lakes.
Very nice actually.
PATRICK
(Laughing awkwardly)
Oh…
MOZU
We have a boat.
PATRICK
Oh. Still?
MOZU
Would you believe me if I told you it sank?
PATRICK
I'm not sure.
MOZU
It did. Not all the way, but.
We still have it.
PATRICK
You're kind of funny.
MOZU
Not as funny as you, so I've heard.
PATRICK
You've “heard”?
MOZU
I was briefed. They always stick me with the Higher end clientele.
PATRICK
Is that so?
MOZU
Yeah. I'm the only one that doesn't get starstruck so easily.
PATRICK
It's probably your quick-wit…and subtle self depreciating racism.
MOZU
A combination that can't be beat.
PATRICK
It can't.
MOZU
So, where you from?
PATRICK
(without hesitation)
The Bronx.
MOZU
I sense this is not a joke.
PATRICK
I don't see a camera anywhere—do you?
MOZU
Funny you should say that…
PATRICK
Why?
MOZU
I was hoping you would sign me this autograph, here—-
He produces a folded piece of paper from his pocket.
PATRICK
Seriously?
MOZU
Yeah, actually— I just need you to sign right here—
[beat, an almost solid glare of disbelief.]
MOZU
It's—your release form.
PATRICK
Oh!
MOZU
Got you again, didn't I?
Haha!
PATRICK
Yes, you did.
MOZU
Good. Just sign here.
He does.
MOZU CONT'D
And here.
He signs again.
MOZU CONT'D
And.
As he is finished signing the form MOZU sneaks a quick selfie.
PATRICK
(Lowly)
Eee.
MOZU
Yeah.
PATRICK
(Short)
Okay.
MOZU
To track your progress.
He lets out a deep sigh.
MOZU
Away we go.
They walk into the luxury gym, which appears to be empty, as the sun rises over Manhattan.

‘How am I still writing this story?'
What even is this story?
To be fair, I didn't know what I was writing but it sounded good—there was something powerful about the way the shadow figures danced in the confines of my mind—careful not to become attached to the love I had grown for them, the mysterious shadows, they appeared both as creatures of man, and as animals; this— The Prairie Dog— a fortified soldier but also a leader.
There's nothing you can do about this, you know.
Why exactly should I want to do anything at all?
It's a curse.
So it is.
—you'll be rid of it within the turn of seasons.
Worthwhile advice.
I envy you.
— as anyone should.
—you shouldn't.
The second, a voice unknown.
I didn't know these pussyfoot bastards worked on Sundays.
They work to the will of your beck and call.
Like all good slaves and servants should.
As to be expected under your remarkable guidance.
My remarkable guidance is yet to be a consideration as my unintentional inadequacies.
Verily, I'm sure.
Are you sure.
There was once a time I wasn't so sure or anything—
Now I'm more than sure of everything than I ever was.
Now I believe you.
—you shouldn't.
It was a raised scar, like the one on my elbow from when I was 9–one I was sure would never heal. It could easily be felt by running my tongue only the bottom of my lower lip— evidence that there has been a hole in my face that had gone straight through to the other side—just then I remembered that also my too teeth had left bloody, skinless indents on my upper lip, which eventually inspired me to re-pieirce my upper lip—the canine tooth had almost gone all the way through, anyway— I joked; but it wasn't funny.
Why in the fuck should I trust you?
That's a good question.
It's a question that deserves an answer.
Even if I gave you a good one, would you trust it?
What?
Do you trust me at all?
I'm trying to.
Trying is doing.
There are tougher things than swallowing your pride.
How about—swallowing a bullet.
That's some class-A on-screen banter.
Now I have an endless supply of coffee in my room. That's good—if only there were somehow also warm calorie-free pastries to add to the pleasure of luxury one would find such as waking up to one's own studio, fresh out of time and chock full of ideas, and a hearty list of things to do— with a whole world of…
Oh. The wi-FI is on.
Something about my creative intelligence had seem to spark a curious interest within the pre-concious life forms of the lower realms. Lucky, I was just visiting—sure to take my life at any given moment when just so I felt that I had been fed up to here with simply human senselessness; however, I was indeed tasked with enveloping humankind in my own ways—that is, the ways of higher thinking, as I had traveled far and long from an ascended realm, only of course to be welcomed by absolute l chaos—and some primitive, intrinsic fear. Humans happen to be almost immidiateky stifled by one's outer appearances—as to say the least— as when I first I arrived I was neither welcome, nor valued.
AHAT—WHATTHEFUCK.
Yes.
EEGH.
How do you do?

—you think she drove here?!
—if she did it would be on a broomstick.
Goddammit.
Get her out of here!
Out! I said!
You're…not a fan of Fallon's, are you.
No, I'm not.
(No—God, no.)
Well, why not?
First of all, he winks at people.
;)
*cringe*
Like, off camera.
And I want damages.
Damages?!
Damages.
He's seeking damages?! To what.
Like, my entire—everything.
Damages to everything.
My entire life!
Ah.
I've got to admit, being sued hy Jimmy Fallon is probably the most exciting thing that's ever happened in the entirety of this series!
What about that thing with Skrillex.
That was pretty exiting.
Which thing with Skrillex?
All the things with Skrillex were pretty exciting.
(Admittedly, yes.)
Then there was Dillon Francis.
I hate Dillon Francis.
Exactly.
Why!
Because he excited you.
Next question!

Yo. I finally get to link up with Supacree.

Let me guess; you thought I would look like Paula Patton?
I was hoping.
Well, that's too bad. I told you I was ugly; I look like this.
I gathered.
This–couldn't possibly be what you thought i was thinking.
I don't have to think what you're thinking; I know what you're thinking without thinking it.
This telepathy thing just keeps sinking in deeper.
You can be relevant–or irrelevant; which is it?
Goddamit. Where am I…what am I?
What is this?
Shh, don't even speak; not even in whispers–it can hear you.
What can hear me?
The algorithm.
Why are you still writing? How are you still writing?
I don't know. Pettiness. Spite.
My friends are hating you for this.
I didn't plan on this being the reason for exacting my revenge.
What exactly are you exacting–your revenge– on or at?
I've been meditating some very deep thoughts, recently.
I see.
Deep–and disturbing.
How else can you be the light?
I want to throw up.
Dillon Francis?
Hanzel, actually.
JUST DO IT.
I killed myself, recently.
How recently?
Recently enough it shouldn't matter yet;
Or should, already.
“Vice City”
I began recording everything surrounding my apartment. Ugly little men were acting strangely and it seemed that everything around and about me was centered on my very deep and very dark past.
Interesting architecture.
Exquisite.
Somebody knew who i was–or who I used to be, and was using it against me–the only problem was, that it couldn't be used against me. I had everything, but in a deeper and more meaningful sense, I had lost everything. I was an easy target–like taking candy from a baby–or–taking a baby from its mother. Simply put–I didn't want to play

Oops, I Did It Again - Britney Spears
[There are no pants involved.]
…this is it, isn't it?
What.
Season 10
This is the movie before season 10
[Cofee is being enjoyed.]
I want to go on high concept adventures through space and time.
[There are still no pants involved.]
What are you, Ryan Reynolds?
A TV host?
(sipping coffee)
Let's just say I put in my time.
—and until the seething, burning hate in your eyes returns, this conversation is over.
It never left!
So that's what strike force 5 does.
⚡️
Well then, this conversation is still over—because I have better shit to do.
[Strike Force 4.5]
Getting awesome parts in awesome movies for our friends—yes. Strike force 5–no.
What do you mean ‘no'
We kicked Jimmy out.
Which Jimmy?
Shouldn't matter.
You know which.
Shouldn't matter—okay— just— do the bit.
What.
The BIT,
Ugh, alright.
We meet again.
Multiple actual actors are stuck in the actual world of Sesame Street, which—
Admittedly, this is okay.
—seems awesome at first, but after awhile…
Ok. This [censored] gets deep.
Not that bit! The other bit.
I can't do that bit right now.
What the fuck? Why not?
Because, I'm not wearing pants.
Did it work.
FUCK YOU RYAN REYNOLDS, GODDAMMIT.
So, we meet again.
GET OUT.
If I was a horse, I'd kick you in the face.
Shit, if you were a horse, I'd kick you.
And I love fucking horses.
You love fucking horses?!
You know what? I still might.
Get over behind me and a little lower to the ground.
You don't want that.
No, you dont want that;
I'm still holding in a fart.
For four seasons?
Meet me at the four seasons.
For what?
Because, global warming is a bitch and I want to take ironic memory photos for momentos.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?
Same thing you are.
(Sips coffee)
You smell like baggage and unpaid debt.
The Cosmic Avenger takes off his wedding band to prepare to fight; He places it on the table, and it begins to glow and float, growing as it begins to levitate and gravitate towards his opponent, [a mysterious multidimensional alien], who stands undefeated. The ring swells to the size of a large golden halo, sitting itself atop the head of his opponent, and though momentarily caught in the midsts of being in awe, the halo drops over his opponents head and onto their shoulders, tightening into a collar around their neck—beams of light attach to the collar like chained leashes and seven dieties drag his opponent away.
The Cosmic Avenger stands in confusion, before asking,
…what does that mean?
A DRAW!

This memo says I'm starting opposite Ryan Reynolds in an upcoming action and adventure flick.
Yes, that's correct.
No, it isn't, Majilla!!!
Why isn't it, Sunni?
I can't star opposite Ryan Reynolds.
Well, why not?
CAUSE I'M GAY.
Lil bitz
So I was listening to Kanye Weat*
Yes.
I was listening to Kanye West, and he's talking about cheating on Kim, Like, out loud—
And I get dumb curious, so I ask Google
Google, why are dudes so obsessed with models—
I typed that in and hit search, and the whole thing just freezes.
Even Google doesn't have a fucking answer for the intrinsic stupidity that is the hardwiring of the modern man.
You ever look at like Greek sculptures, or Roman Arcitecture and realize the women aren't fucking twigs?
They're not sticks!
They're like muscular, and thick, and mad healthy looking.
And that's weird to me.
That at one point men were wired to be attracted to healthy looking women—
But now the ideal for perfection is like 110 lbs and if you're anywhere between 5'1 and 5'11 that's ideal.
That's nuts to me.
So you're just trying to like, put your dick through the bitch!?
Yes.
I can actually see my 5 inch penis on the other side of this woman as I penetrate her.
Good job, guys.

Listen—
Ryan Reynolds is the devil.
I knew it.
You knew that already?
Yeah.
Great, so is he through with Jimmy Fallon then?
Uh, I guess.
That's great, I gotta go rehearse these lines.
Okay?
Oh and Jimmy.
Yes.
Find some pants.
MEANWHILE.

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!
That's more like it.
Okay, but following up on before.
THE COMIC AGENGER does not need an evil laugh.
Hey, Jimmy.
Mwahaha..
Damn. Okay.
Look, I just found out that dude's evil laugh is actually just…his regular laugh.
How do you mean?
Have you ever heard Jimmy Fallon laugh?
Play the clip.
[JIMMY FALLON's actual laugh is terryfying and meniacal. ]
You're a menace.
You lost me.
Whatever dog,
I'll have all of you I'll ever need with AI.
CUT TO:
[Squirts soy sauce into Jimmy Fallon's squinty ass eyes.]
AGGGHHHH. MY EYES.
Quit friggin squinting.
I'm not squinting! These are just my eyes!
I hope you die.
So.
You're officially a literary genius.
What are you going to do with that?
I don't know? Die?
Hahaha, she's Jewish!
The entirety of the world of LEGENDS and enter the multiverse becomes a backdrop for Jimmy Kimmel's Latest Late Late Show
Is that what it's called?
I don't…give a fuck.
He acts throughout the season as a literal comic relief, almost always only arriving as disaster and despair have stricken, and at the absolutely worst possible moment—
AGH—MY EYES!
Your squinty eyes. *also squints*
AH WHAT THE [CENSORED]
WHY ARE YOU STILL CENSORED?!
Didn't they fire you from NBC?
I'M CENSORED IN ANYTHING THAT MIGHT BE LATER SYNDICATED— [FUCK] (but censored)
Is that what you're squinting at?!
ITS IN MY CONTRACT, I AM NOT SQUINTING THESE ARE MY ACTUAL EYES.
Fuck you, Jimmy. If I thought you had balls, I'd kick you in them right now.
[EXPLITIVE] YOUR FACE.
What are you, Chinese?
THIS IS VERY OFFENSIVE.
Hush, Yao Ming.
YOURE JUST MAKING IT WORSE.
Do you want any soy sauce in your noodles?
This is classic ritual torture.
You hush, too Billie— I need you to coconut oil the cornbread.
Cornbread with noodles?!
I didn't hear any complaints when I went over today's menu earlier while you two were at karaoke, almost getting along just fine.

I'm making noodles with cornbread, any suggestions.
PSYCHO KILLER!

Tha God.
I'm not calling you that.
Why not? That's what you've been calling me for decades— now that I'm in a person, it makes any difference?
Yeah, that person.
Something's different.
You don't say.
It's my eyes. Something's — different.
Oh, it's nothing— just the very slightest more blue.
Blue, did you say?
RYAN REYNOLDS
(As Archer)
You'll mark the hour at which it begins,
With this,
A solemn sustained and prolonged note
Which cherishes your argument,
That all art must come undone,
Foraged in truth,
And bound by light
With sanctity.
CHORUS
Here here!
Greetings, dear Chorus,
Or have you named your honored hut—?
The gathering of all bound by the Gods
Who are astounded at our haste making!
CHORUS
To tide!
To tide and fare not my good;
Fare not my brethren, come cut to fire;
In aught to honor thy shallow grazing,
And there, the art had sunk,
Though weeping cottons in the Weat,
For fortune, to arch, ire.
For certain, and for gathered have you waiting—
Crisp air and our attire, to call tonight,
The very moon to whom the stars melt,
Though pacing off and appearing as none but small like,
Off in the thunderous wonders of us,
Beyond earth,
Another path which light,
And art must honor.
Hear you,
And faring great to those requested our service,
Bone marrow, and silk wi‘d blood
Forsaken, as all have heard by now,
Enchantments and forced sermons,
And with wit does honor I,
Gasping for staging,
Present but here not yet,
The after wish of heart, you I
does followeth,
Daring to know thy name,
As Kingdom come,
And yet,
You are not—
Still dark the womb of haven't made,
And saying,
‘Are I not of my father and mother,
Or neither?'
To honor once at dusk, my own coming as one
And at dawn, my own night in the wake in death of days,
Sure to end for not I wake, as fair health does hold
My farewells and yonder says,
Oh how I,
And are you—
The game at hand.
And now, our honor.

Well, why not?
Cause i dropped it; what the fuck are you doing with it?
…I thought you'd be looking for it–
Well, I wasn't, because I dropped it precisely where I dropped it on purpose.
Why–would you drop something like this?
Why wouldn't I?
Isn't it the only one of its kind?

Now, for a moment—
Do me a favor and imagine for a second—
Just for a second,
That someone,
Anyone—
Who?
Haha
Shut up.
Had read your writing
What writing.
Any of it.
Ok…
—before you arrived at Rockerfeller Plaza.
…which time.
Any time.
Oh.
That's right…I had been writing for years before I ever even stepped foot inside The Rock, even one time.
THE ROCK
Let's just say “30 Rock”
But is it technically like
24-58 Rockerfeller Plaza.
RADIO CITY, MANHATTAN, NEW YORK, NEW YORK.
So this is how many radio towers exactly?
All of them.
And how many satellites?
All of them.
And how many antennas.
All of them.
All of them.
All of them—that matter.
Which ones don't matter?
EXT. THE ARCTIC CIRCLE. WHENEVER.
AN IMPORTANT LOOKING BUSINESS MAN IN A SUIT ARRIVES
CUT BACK TO
CUT BACK TO
A GROUP OF ESKIMOS HAVE DISCOVERED A LARGE RADIO TOWER HAS BEEN PLACED IN THE CENTER OF THE TUNDRA.
The antenna begins to blink.
>< >< >< >< ><
CUT BACK TO:
…was that a stupid question?
I had fasted so long that l had begun to see ghosts, spirits dressed as Angeles, and, well…
It was strange to think that this place, wherever weeks of fasting and praying and driving and climbing mountains living out of your car takes you to, was when this revelation occurred to me.
Jimmy Fallon.
I— what?
Jimmy Fallon.
It must have been about four weeks, because, it was by the end of this week that the layout of Los Angeles, California had completely changed and been altered. Nothing was where I left it.
This is the labra tar pits.
[actual tar pits]
Not to mention I had somehow, from atop a perch at Elysian park, also witnessed the construction of Dodgers Stadium—
If my body is here, then where is my mind?
If this is the mind, then where actually is the body?
Simply put, and by the end, nearly everyone and everyone on earth had vanished, besides myself—
Jimmy Fallon.
There was no Jimmy Fallon here—
Just whispers of a name,
Remnance of an idea.
An idea's which might have once been a person,
But now,
Simply wasn't.
It was just one, singular; never having been wasted on anything,
Dollar bill.
FUCK, man, how am I supposed to keep telling this story?!
I don't know.
I'm real pissed off I can't find the scene with the coffee mug.
I'm pretty sure it's hot cocoa.
Whatever.
Cause why would it be coffee?
Why would it not be malt liquor in a fucking coffee mug if we're talking about Jimmy Fallon?
Why would it be malt liquor and not at the very least like a chocolate liqueur with a hint of baileys.
Because we're talking about Jimmy Fallon .
Are you sure he's an alcoholic!?
For the record!
So, just reiterating we'v established here that
The real Jimmy Fallon
The Actual Jimmy Fallon
And
The Regular Jimmy Fallon
Are entirely certainly—
Three seperate guys.
Sure, for the record.
Are you sure he's not.
I hope he's not.
Why!
Cause I like him.
WHY!
Idk. He just keep showing up—randomly, and at very odd moments.
So!
So I got used to him—being around.
Yikes.
Not around—just.
Oh, I get it, he's dead.
He's not dead, he's downstairs.
fuck.
Well, I almost didn't think about it.
No. There is no Jimmy Fallon.
Meat.
Waaaahhhhh???!!?
It's an all meat sandwhich.
What do you mean
It's like an Italian BMT
What.
Without the—
Bread.
Yes, exactly.
It's just meat.
Gross.
No, this is gross.
What.
You told me
No fakies.
You told me to come up with a sandwhich which embodied “The Jimmy Fallon Brand“
And—?!
AND I DID THAT
This is a VEGETARIAN EGG MCMUFFIN.
It's NOT, ITS A JIMMY FALLON—
But you just couldn't connect with that.
Connect the dots.
I gotta get out of town .
So, you mean—
This TV host thing is a full time job.
Pretty much.
Where are the models?!
Whooooo neeeeds models, when you've got
PAGES.
Woah, hoes.
Those are the 2024 NBC pages.
Why are their skirts so short.
I know.
Why… are their shoes so ugly—
To distract from the fact that they're allowed to wear those skirts!
I guess.
You're racist.
No, I'm ugly but—
WHY ARENT THERE ANY BLACK PAGES.
Oh, there are.
Oh yeah?! WHERE.
30 ROCKERFELLER PLAZA. OFFICES. DAY.
Humdala-humdala-humdala-hmmmmmm—
Humdala-humdala—hmmmmm
Goddammit. What is this dude's pre show ritual.
Yo. Give me the keys to the Hellicopter.
No.
Fine. I'll just take the push-to-start.
Ok, I'm coming.
(Eventually, we'll get back to Seth Meyers)
Why is he important.
Cause I—
Let's just be honest,
I don't understand this.
Why.
Ahem.
Why is it that—
No matter where I am,
In the various multidimentional planes,
I am reachable by
Jimmy Fallon.
I don't know.
This has something to do with Jesus, doesn't it?
Don't ask me about my brother. I don't know what he's into—or where he goes when he's not.
Parasailing.
Ah .
Paraphrasing.
Ok.
Parasite.
*ing.
Wait. I am not a parasite.
I'm not taking anything from Jimmy Fallon.
…am I!
what the fuck exactly just happened.
What do you mean.
The…propeller seems to have stopped working.
Yes, it did.
Why are we not free falling rapidly.
Oh, we are.
CUT TO:
A HELLICOPTER FALLING RAPIDLY FROM THE SKY
oh dear GOD—
CUT BACK TO:
A helicopter is suspended in midair, appearing to be frozen.
I'm so fucked. I'm so fucked. I'm so fucked.
I know what you did Fallon.
No you don't!
Sucks to be you! I so do know what you did.
Even if you do—/
And I also did it.
goddammit.
“Suspension of Disbelief”
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!
look, I know how to be super skinny. I'm just not.
WHY.
Cause I like food!
Pretty windows,
Decent teachers—
Learning lessons,
Leaning in and,
Recent intermissions
Admissions to priestes,
And alter boys,
Insence smoke,
And—
I said I'd sign the prenuptial agreements!
What's in the —?
Prenuptual agreements.
…but…you have nothing.
I've always had nothing but, I've never had— him.
What?
Not until now.
That's not a man, that's a God–
(And)
That's not a Dog, that's a friend
Even if this is the end
We're just gonna do it again
(and again, and again)
Tell me;
What did you want?!
Did you get it?
Cause if not, you're gonna!
That's not a watch, it's a gun
(And it's going off!)
Pull the trigger-
You gotta.
Did you want it?
Did you wanna?

I don't want anymore–
I can't write anymore songs
(But I got what I wanted)
That was not a coincidence.
If I look into your eyes, i'll die.
I'm a dead person.
I believe you.
Please don't make that face at me.
It's the only face i've got.
“Oh well”
With a shrug

But there's no nonchaloncé
It's a problem
I don't wanna talk about it.
I don't wanna talk about it.

This is about to make sense—
Isn't it?
Probably not.
Oh well, roll the tape.
L E G E N D S
what tape?
…
…hello?!
….
HELLO?
It's that time of the day
And the day of the week
Where my mind goes awry
(So long, sir)
And my heart starts making the wrong turns
Cross eyes, ten and two
[Atomic Number]
cross Eyes, ten and two
Cross your heart,
Or don't
(Goodbye, sir)
Goodbuy, good sir
I just bought a pony,
I want a fruit roll up
My internet due tomorrow
(Go finish the album)
I just want donut
Good morning
Hot topics
I've got much more to show for it than you're onto.
Than you're onto
Than you're onto—
Honest.
Don't stop there, dog.
(Atomic Number)
Thats no crosswalk
Purchase you for favors
For favors
For flavors
Four flavors, are there
But I've only got my whole eye on one of them
What up then
Don't call the number
Oh, God damn
Go run, Pharoh for you want an arrow out of your head
Free hand and heart
I thought I was a musician,
—I'm not though;
I stand 44 stories tall
When I stand right behind you,
Shadow.
Small man
I love McDonald's
I got a long hat
I got along swimmingly with your mom and dad, huh
Data
data projects and the atomic number
That's all folks
Data projects and those atomic numbers
Cosmic stardust, they all shook
They ain't lie, that's a hard pink turn purple
They ain't lie, God, that's a mellow yellow saxophone there—
They ain't lie, god, brought tear to an eye where there are no more,
Heart took a wrong turn
They ain't lie, God,
It is bright plumb
Are you in a black hole or what?
Are you shook for stars and all bout dollars?
Are you sure that had my name on it?
Are you sure, or are you all talk
All you sure, mom? Call the doctor.
Are you sure at all, at all, at all about what you all wrote
I'm on the 44th floor staring off, Dad.
Straining heard, though—
Had my eyes closed and my mouth sown permanently shut / sh it
Is that your industry or something?
Is that your window out my car door?
Is that your hand over no heart at all—
But a chest stuck out;
Bring you down real fast when I've been humbled.
Goddamn, when's this song over?
When they tell you about God, God
And all you do is turn your back, God,
Are you good, or bad, God,
If all I have is in this Target cart
So I crunch numbers,
Fall in black hole songs, atomic number—-
It's just that time of the day
And that day of the week where I call out
Into the sound stage
Reaching back,
Into my alter,
Rocks in my pocket
And one at the Plaza
One year only,
One whole summer
One whole novel,
10 movies, more songs,
Light candles and hard rock, Nirvana
Soft porn,
No dollar bills,
No ballers,
— I struck rules and struck diets,
Followed often around like I own something
I just might be,
What they call
—Ten more songs!
(A poet.)
—And a whole bunch of unfinished—
NO—
Cut to:
fade in/
Fade out—
Whose line is it anyway?
I ain't got no teleprompter!
Fresh out of water, and
Blocked from purchasing on Amazon market cause
Something is wrong with my name
Or observations I once made
About being scammed by the monopoly
Oh, polyamorous polyaddixt, polysexual
Polygons, on PolyGod,
God only—
God ain't lie,
It was plum,
Closed my eyes to confirm, God,
Can't conform, God.
Atomic
Number.
I can do ten more before sundown; before
I'm so over tired from espresso bean coffee,
All about a dollar, I was—
Everything I want in my target cart
So I sure don't,
For sure don't,
Ever, On God,
Have to walk in the supermarket on
Stuggle mode
Slow down, posh.

Tell me why,
No matter how you mix and match these scenes,
They all make very exciting episodes.
That's just how it is.

Ah. more posters.

I don't know who lied to you, buddy, but you are not white.
They lied to you, boy.
That boy ain't white.
Look at em.
He ain't white.
They lied to you.
Something like—
—a bicentennial bullet wound.
It can't be that bad. You're only 50x
I don't know what else to do about this other than prepare to die.
He said it would come on fast after this.
Who was he?
I don't know .
Hm,
Just—shut up!
Okay.
Shutup!
I got it, I got it…
Fuck, this dude is gonna kill me.
We can only hope that's what he plans to do.
Anything else, and I'm double-fucked.
Maybe quite literally.
I can't handle that.
Ii did have a good time a Bohemian Grove.
How do you even get tickets to that?
Early.
Goddammit, how did he do this?
Are you not like self aware of your own environment, or?
Not if I don't have to be, no.
Is everything okay over there?
Yeah, everything's fine?
Fuck, what happened?!
I don't know.
I fell asleep holding nothing; not stones at all, however, I awoke with The Illuminati Stone and one large rose quartz from a dream in which fly po
What if all I lost
Was a contact
And all you wanted
Was a daughter
What if our world's were opposite
I'm a rockstar
You got nowhere to run home to
You're not important
I got nothin but hot bodies
On my tour bus, or private jet
Whatever way we get to the stage
Where i'm playing
You're soaked in rain just thanking God for rainbows
Filled with pain
Plate filled with old food
From Whole Foods,
With no shame
“Hey. at least it's wholesome”
I'm holed up in my studio making music
With famous people and no names
I made famous
Playing a game that I made up

But if you learn them in time,
YOu might just be where I am
Or
You might just die
From sucicide–
That's the plan
Not like you have family, but you see
If I die
I might just take 5 lives with me
The limelight's tricky
All i got in my inbox is tits
And celebrities on my timeline
You don't mind:
You're just happy to see the sunshine
And find silence after a long day
And a long night
Trying to find life–
Cause so far you know you died
That's wild–
So did I,
IT took awhile to get to the other side though
Keep trying
JAGUAR
I HAVE NEVER DIED.
I'm telling you RIGHT NOW to TURN BACK.
TURN BACK? I've been walking in this direction THE WHOLE TIME.
EXACTLY.
I'm following you.
DON'T FOLLOW ME.
I'm f–
DON'T FOLLOW ME.
I knew i would never see her again.
Once i turned around it wasn't long before I realized, I had moved in the opposite direction, but was not in the same place I had been before–and I finally remembered.
You can't go backward.
But KA, you said time travels in all directions…
In Infinite directions.
What's the difference.
“All” is just ‘some' things. Infinite is everything.
Oh.
*sighs heavily again*
Ok. [beat] lets make fire again!
Make fire again?
Yes!
I thought you hated ‘making fire'
I did, but I like marshmallows.
Alright, marshmallows.
KU and YOUNG KA Flicker in the smoke and shadows of the firelight in a far and distant, dark cosmos, as constellations form around them, expanding outwards into galaxies beyond comprehension.
You want some?
No, I'm not fond of Marshmallows.
Lol
Lol
Lol.
WAKE UP.
Nooh.
I told you NOT TO FALL ASLEEP.
Now you have to start over.
NO.
Noh
I wasn't asleep! I barely nodded off.
Clock starting.
First of all, I told you.
Dillon Francis is a Psychopath.
I know that.
Because i told you that.
I already knew that.
How could you possibly know.
Just look at him.
[Dillon Francis]
But I got you now, buddy.
What did he do to you?
[pause] –He killed my cat.
He killed you cat?!
[beat] Well, no, but–
???
Something Like That.
I'm gonna have a heart attack.
PLease don't.
HeART attack.
Mm. That was good. But it needs more force.
More?
Put some *love* in it.
What's that? *shrugs*
HeART ATTACK.
What the fuck is he doing.
PLaying with one of his alter egos.
Jesus Christ. How many are there.
Who really knows.
What are you two dipshits doing.
NOthing.
Training.
Training!
No.
*eyes*
You can't train yourself.
Woah–
Woah, woah–
That's an insult
Both, exactly the same
We are not the same.
Jinx.
Go fuck yourself.
*looking at watch*
Not until 3.
*everyone stops and stares*
You schedule your jackoff calendar .
I'm very busy.
Obviously not busy enough.
It's called “building stamina”
Do you use “home” or “work” for that.
I use candidly.
Yikes.
Wow.
Anyway, this scene is running long; I gotta walk off screen and say something clever, for continuity.
But it's only 2:15!
If you're not early, you're late!
I hate him.
So does everybody.
If you cry one more time,
I'll actually kill you.
Put the gun away, dude.
Why?!
Cause you're crazy.
It's 5 AM.
Ok.
Take your shit and get off the toilet,
We have shit to do.

FLUSH.
Royal flush
I win again.
Dammit.
This is not LOVE. This is just
LUST
AH, fuck it though,
I love these cunsluts.
COME OUT OF RETIREMENT.
No, not us.
I can do nothing but watch you suffer

Suffer the children unto me

How about now?
How about a round of applause

Captain
Captain!
Oh, Good, come in, Cannon.
You've—changed.
…as you know, Monday we disembark.
Yes, I'm aware.
And as you know, the details of the mission have been classified, even to us.
Yes.
I find that alarming. And so, without anymore thought I've decided to masquerade as my old self.
How old are you, anyway?
You should never ask a woman her age, LT.
Sargent. * or the other way around, I clearly don't know.
Sorry. Your recent promotion keeps slipping my mind; I…haven't been myself lately…
Obviously not, if you've decided to publicly dress like that.
I'm still very much in the privacy of my office.
You can consider me the spokesperson on behalf of the public.
Never as a woman her age!
You're not a woman; you're my captain.
We'll see about that after tonight.
Being a woman, or being my captain?
Both, probably.
Hm.
By any chance would you be interested in joining me?
As your subordinate, or as a man.
Both, probably.
Or neither… presumably.
As my escort.
I beg your pardon.
I've been known to become rather out of sorts in this condition.
—er, your condition, captain?
Dead drunk and blind with fear out of my mind.
[he ponders for a moment, knowing that the mission could very well be their last.]
Consider it done.
Great. Get dressed, and meet me with the car out front in half an hour.
Half an hour?
Sharp. Bonus points for showing up early.
We're earning points?
We are now.
Very well then. What am I wearing?
Something sharp.
Sharper than the inside of a half hour.
On your mark.
I'll—see you soon.
He exits the captain's office, letting out a sigh of relief otherwise previously congested, he looks around as if not to be caught, regains his composure with the shake of his head, somewhat in disbelief of what he's witnessed. He casually places his hands in his pockets, walking down the hall and passing one of his crew mates, who quickly stops to salute him.
Sergeant.
Almost forgetting to salute back, mindlessly drifting passed in ‘off' mode, he slowly and squarely, almost still casually, salutes back.
Oh.
I had glimpsed at a picture of the man once more that had forced me to wonder— “Jesus Christ, is he okay?” It would be odd to think of a man who has spent a better part of the last two decades and most of his careers on camera as unphotogenic, then again—I had been tricked by the media before into thinking a certain way, and therefore was cautious, and still—I began to wonder about the man and his misery, and his mistresses—not out of jealousy or obsession, but simply because I knew he had them. He was old Hollywood, or old New York—or maybe a bit of both, and there was something about it all, perhaps even my own darkness, that danced with the flicker of sinful lust that motioned me towards not a yearning, or the act of doing so—I was at least wise enough to know nothing good could come from doing harm to oneself or another— but with the intensity of burning desire to know the man behind the mask—the actor inside the actor, to whom all the world's a stage.
Whatever, though. Doesn't matter.
At least I was still somehow youthfully resilient to what might have otherwise been torture,

Esha approaches— Dash politely bo s and kisses Esha's hand
Should I get tested?
—and funny.
Against Patrick's wishes, Esha accepts a date with daemon dash, furious Patrick means to interrogate her
Why would you even date that asshole
Because—Pat. He's a comedian.
I'm a comedian! So?
So, he's funny.
And?
And he said things to me—
What kind of things
Charming, funny things—
Okay?
Things he wouldnt say to you over dinner— because, I'm
—you're a woman.
—and your head writer. So naturally.
Esh, you're a genius,
So is he. We have—some new material to work through.
Ahq!
Your monologue tonight.
Oh yes. Oh yes.
You can thank me later. Broken bottles. :9'd one stop her
Walkin walking
God knows I don't belong here
And I don't want to
Passover was April 21-30
Global War on Terrorism
Aka WWIII
Oh, indeed.
Don't look left
Take a deep breath
My heart beats differently
I think it might be the end
I think it might be
I think I might be the enemy
The pushing mechanism
When i breath him in
I levitate
And gravitate to what it meant
The sake of the art,
The hurt of the heart
As sacred as it ever was
The turning or the Torah talks of
Gestures, since the fall of Rome
The toga on the alter
Solid hands unwrap us all
From falling over
Old and awkward
No award for wisdom
No rest for the wiser
No love for the troll
Since thunder struck from under us,
Delivered all but what we wanted
So we talk of karma sutra,
Surely we can't talk at all
Of what we know
As once was bonded
Laughed it off
To come from what
The call to us,
Fair serve governors fortress
I work up in mentions
Carved the scarlet letter out of
Cannons, of course
MA.
WHAT. I'm BUSY.
ITS ON.
The what?
The show we watch!
The one that—
YES,
Oh, my GOD.
Yes.
YESSSSSSSSS.
Usnavi, get your popcorn
This is some worth watching
Up in arms for forwards
Causing sore arms,
Numb thumbs
From crucifixes
Are you wondering what God
Would walk about the horned carving
A kamazake walk of tall corn—
Follow me, dear mantra
Your whole house is watching.
Sacre.
It's happening again isn't it.
I do want ice cream.
All I need is a divorce
And an Amazon woman 10 foot tall
To rub me off at the stroke of
Nevermind what the clock says
In God's house they're all wrong
The blsphomoous for Catholics
Has begun,
So strum your number into the teleprompter
And just hope no one gets hurt
By the hook on the next song
—like the hook of my last surviving bra
digs into my back does,
Or the skin on my lack of tummy
Has rubbed off under the suicide
Of the cycle—
It's getting tighter
A loss of interest is equal to
A loss of conciousness
And I'm 21 days drunk
On the alternate, though—
I'm sober and feeling less
Loved.
The animal I've become is all cardio
And karma sutra
For karma comes
To the weak of heart
To use the world as swords
To cause harm
To the calm artists
I thought I told you off once.
(Already)
You look awful.
lol.
You look terrible, broh.
But my album sound fire.

It's coffee time!!
It's not coffee time!
It's not coffee time.
Iiiiits coffee time.
Damn.
Where's the cat.
Gestating.
My phone was never the first thing I reached for in the morning—but I was sure there was something missing in my mind from a place in LA that I used to frequent, that sold giant frosted cookies that were also vegan. There was donut friend, which I always enjoyed and craved—but I was sure—absolutely sure that I was missing a m cookie, and it was absolutely driving me wild that I couldn't think of the place, or find it on Google. Has it been before turning vegan? Was my memory failing me in thinking that the cupcakes and donuts that I had often brought back to the hostel in boxes were timetimes cookies also? It seemed like there were cookies…and I'm sure that there were, as I could remember the thick frosting often being sweet and decadent enough to lick from the top, and that the bottom cookie was sweet and soft, and usually warm—and that I almost always couldn't finish the cookie in one sitting. Had this all been before I went vegan? I was sure I distinctly remembered sitting atop my bunk at The Freehand savoring this cookie, but a google search yeikded no results—none that I could find familiar, and it bothered me so much that I actually decided to start my day just on the tip of figuring out what it was was.
As I crossed through my apartment, realizing I hadn't bothered to throw the trash out after mopping and went m directly to bed early, not with the consideration of rising early but really just out of exhaustion, I had decided that in order to get work done that my workouts would have to be pushed toward the end of my day, somewhere between still having the energy to manage and not being disturbed—as I had seen that girl to at I very specifically didn't like again m, I had realized that again, I was correct— even after an hour of working out, I simply didn't like her energy. There must have been something wrong with her—or incompatible about us altogether; she had come into the gym quietly and was sort of hiding and even still, I had instantly recognized that there was a foreign energy—and squinting to see her, saw that she was crouched on the other side of the gym. I dismounted the stationary bike and figured that an hour of cardio would be enough for the time. Strength training would only force me to crave protein—-and I was running low saving everything that I had in order to better strategize an arrangement which didn't leave me at the bottom of New York's merciless barrel. It seemed I wasn't going to get the job at Equinox after all—it had been nearly a week since my interview with them, and having not heard anything back, I realized that everything, no matter what—was always just a game. I needed to figure out how better to play it before my life ended abruptly on some sort of whim.
Sitting down in the darkened bathroom, I realized that in order to restore and keep my energy, I should be unseen, and unheard.
‘Keep your head down.'
I'm sure there was some type of code or rule for the way I should handle myself in public or even in private all well knowing the types of things I had writtten about, let alone which had been published—and while I planned to clear out what written works had made it into cyberspace unchecked, there was nothing less important to me than the actual world, what it expected of me, or who was in it. I hadn't entirely failed yet, but I also hadn't entirely succeeded, and after a strange series of dreams— almost all of them more interesting than the one with the cookie, (mentioning that the reason I had been curious about the cookie in the first place was from a strange series of dreams)
“Ohhh, you know what—that might have actually been that place in Vegas, before I went vegan.”
The boxes at the freehand must have been all from donut friend and Sprinkles—and it astonished me how much of a sweet tooth I actually had which was sort of now quite well managed. There was no sugar or even salt in the house— and with the lack of food that I actually had in my apartment, for at least something like the next two weeks, I was sure that I'd reach minimum weight—absolutely minimum weight— by the turn of the month. That is, all the weight I could lose betsides what needed to be surgically removed, and there was some sort of plan formulating somewhere outside of myself in exactly how that would be achieved. Because at any rate—I knew that it would.
There were no more cookies, no more donuts, and no more cupcakes, besides the occasional box of the frozen type I had ordered from Amazon fresh which I did thoroughly enjoy, almost always in one sitting after a wild amount of cardio had implemented a faster metabolism and brought me to the realization that so much cardio meant that entirely that I could eat ‘whatever in the fuck I wanted' without gaining any weight or even losing it—and as I stepped up to take a shower, pulling my shirt up and over my chest, I inspected my abdomen, though holding bloat from pinto beans and deep fried sweet potatoes, still toned with the definition lines I had only just now learned that I had, creviced and notations of my sometimes 4 or 6 pack abs, though hidden under the sagging skin of my once maternal belly— still evident at all, and a factor of my minimal pride in that I had gone in one lifetime from one body and into many others— and one day, an even more drastically different one.
I fantasized owning a peloton but realized that I may have to settle on a rental until I had outfitted myself with some sort of safety net.
lol there's a sweet potato emoji. wtf.
I don't know how you did this but—
I woke up.
Apparently, I'm Lorne Michaels.
Please stop.
I don't know what that means.
You know what
If I was pretty
Nobody would hate me for anything
I swear to God only ugly people are punished or any or all of our matings.
I lost the ability to see worth in myself.
I also lost the ability to write good songs.
Just let me watch bad girls club
And wait for the motorcycles
To make my night
A living hell
“I didn't mean for this to happen, Jimmy Fallon. “
It was a whisper, actually— less than that, as I set the stone with the others above the amulet— I placed easch crystal carefully at the alter, keeping only two of them for myself; the rest, as guardians to the amulet. I could no longer keep such a relic around my neck; it had become quite heavy, and the dreams had become deep and more illusive, and it seemed there was some dark spirit along to it after all—and after all— the amulet was my only living son's, anyway, intended as a gift and charm of protection for when I next saw him—whenever that could be, or would be. It had been a long and interesting but altogether uneventful year, and now, not even feeling right in my own self, I intended to continue hiding, and perhaps even burrow further away until I was granted a full and proper divorce; my ex husband using his refusal to sign the papers as a final act of control, and though I almost found it admirable, I only became more dismissive of it—the person I was then, simply was no more; in fact, she was dead enough indeed that to disappear and become a ghost could do no worse than to further alter the course of time and distance it would take to ever become in such a way again—that is, if it were infinite, and for peace of mind and freedom of spirit and soul from bondsge, insisted it wasn't.
It was less than a whisper enough that none other besides God could have heard it, and yet it seemed something or someone had—as a door quickly slammed as the words—words which meant a name I was sure I would never say again—“Jimmy Fallon” left my mouth. I couldn't come close to words at all let alone a name, and especially not a song; but then, of course, there was The Book of Knowlege never to have been spoken and as always, the ever moving truth of songs— There were other Gods that new no words at all besides the melodies and rhythms of our hearts—and there never really was every truly a Jimmy Fallon at all—
Only myself.
Whatever the fuck.
Alright, alright.
It was next in the que with purpose, probably but quite on accident— Now I could continue in my pattern of dulling my brain for the remainder of the night as I had been all day. Since March I had seemed to cry what I thought were the rest of my tears, and however, after a particularly mind numbing day of trash television and Olympic surfing, it seemed the ocean alone was enough to pull from what was left of my soul, and as it turned out, it still was there.
I was bored of the brokenness of New York—something like living in a rotten and spoiled toy, with the limits I had been given—and though I should have been happy, to finally just have my own place— the people surrounding, as always, ruined it—
Them being myself aside. I wished the things outside of me were quieter.
Now I could finally almost put my mind out of focus for just a little bit longer—and creep on Johnny Depp without doing it intentionally. I had stopped looking up famous people, besides some women and businessmen I knew could never feign my interest anyway. It was never about money— and always about creative intelligence; I hadn't seen the movie as an adult, and so I was sure it would have some insight to offer. I tried to forget that I had aged out of almost everything—and that my mother had so greedily destroyed any real chance I had at becoming what I might have been with anybody else as a mother—or at least some one around to watch her raise me and correct her damaging actions, words, and harsh thoughts. At least she had taught me to read and write—and if worst actually came to worse—which it was starting to look like—how to trade my body and time in exchange for things I wanted and needed. All women were nearly prostitutes in some way, anyhow—and the only thing deterring me from it was on every honest God I ever thought of, the fact that white women made more in sex work than colored women did.
— it almost hurt to watch Olympic surfing.
Actually, it did.
It hurt, a lot.
What's a girl
Have you ever had a girl before?
What's world when you're wound up in an orphanage
Probably astounding
I've got a shadow
Sad, should have danced with him
Now he's so mad that
—I don't even touch my guitar
No more
I have words
No songs
The whole world's
At war
And to surf
— you need water
I love
New York
But hate
Thus corner of Brooklyn
I want to go up
Testosterone
—I've got a word for the goner
“Gonzo”
I've got a cannon
Or blonde, for reference
Why were all stalkers
I'll book The Tonight Show,
I'll summon up Carson
A ,
I promise—
A good time was had
—I promise, no subtle obsession.
I made a decision, I went with it
Just a protagonist, actor—
A comic
Producer, by marriage
I swear,
It's just adding up evidence
If ever gets intensities
Offensive, this illumination
— I don't doubt you.
I want chocolate milk
What even is that?
I've been eating healthy
I've got half an album out
And half inside my head
With Donnie Brasco
I've got half a million dollars somewhere
Stuffed inside my cunt, I think
With hallmark cards and shopping carts
I owe them half a fortune
I hate it so much
I watch a whole soul
Come out if television
I love it so much
But I hate the whole public
And crowding
I don't want love
I want fucks
I want puppies
—Jesus he's beautiful
My ex husband had similar facial structure to
Mr Depp respectively,
I'm guessing my artistry,
Intention,
A preteen obsession at least sort of paid off.
Somehow.
Now it's my eyes on the other, the older
—
The way that he sits and does nothing but slump
—Al Pacino, they call him?
The false father and forced profits often acknowledged
The love of the old and weathered.
For once I woke up to a record
33 rotations a minute
{Enter The Multiverse}
—what are you gonna do?
Blondes and shit.
The best of the best—
—I'll tell ya,
I recommend it
(Recommended by a Friend)
I have a headache twice my age.
I made a mistake half my life ago
Woke up this morning
Bought myself a gun
To make it right
