00:23 I mean, I don't wanna sound racist,

00:24 but I just feel like white people in Idaho

00:26 are not taking this seriously.

00:28 So I had an idea.

00:29 You and I should make a documentary

00:31 about the two of us driving to Boise, Idaho to go see Wes.

00:34 - You guys, this whole thing is a bad idea.

00:35 - I don't see what the issue is.

01:14 - What, no, come on, man, we're on our way.

01:15 - Okay, we're fully lost.

01:17 - Sneaking around and being deceitful,

01:20 that's gonna build a lot of tension.

01:21 - There's not a whole lot of that going on in this movie.

01:24 - Nope.

01:26 - I guess I'm just a little tired of carrying us creatively.

01:32 - This whole thing is ruined.

01:33 - I'm happy for like the first time ever.

01:36 - Trash, mentally ill, totally normal.

01:39 - Devin hates me and I hate Devin.

01:52 - You think Mark Duplass will see this movie?

01:53 - Hello everyone, Mark Duplass.

01:55 - You gotta be kidding me.

02:15 - We are the A story and you are the B story.

02:17 - My name is literally in the title of the movie.

02:19 - Yeah, but like so is saving Private Ryan,

02:22 And you don't really see Ryan

02:23 until the last 15 minutes of the movie.
