00:00 I am so grateful as I booked this pilot.
00:05 One more time.
00:06 Smile.
00:08 I am so grateful as I booked this pilot.
00:11 Danny, you didn't get the pilot.
00:13 For years I was the hotshot.
00:20 But when I was going places, I was the guy everyone wanted to be.
00:24 You know, everyone's still talking about your arc as the necrophiliac rapist in SVU.
00:28 When was that?
00:29 Two, three years ago.
00:31 Five years.
00:32 Five, five years.
00:34 Things were going so well for a couple years.
00:37 I was working a lot. Everybody was saying I was going to blow up.
00:39 I was so close, like I was going to make it.
00:41 And then it all just fell apart.
00:43 I love actors.
00:45 And I just wanted to say I loved you in Raising Victor Vargas.
00:48 It was Victor Rasuk.
00:50 One other Dominican in Hollywood and he gets all the work.
00:53 Yo, Tony, thank you so much for letting me crash here, man.
00:55 We didn't get a chance to talk about you and Eddie.
00:57 He's suddenly hitting you up out of the blue.
00:58 I would never do you dirty.
01:00 It was time to move on.
01:01 Two years, right?
01:02 Two years, three months, one week. Yeah, something like that.
01:05 I'm going to kill you to put some clothes on, man.
01:07 You know what your problem is? You think you're owed.
01:12 Look, it's nothing personal. It's just everything about you is wrong.
01:16 He's crashing and burning.
01:20 What if he's not? What if he's finding himself?
01:24 [music]
01:26 Only when we stop playing victim can we finally move forward.
01:35 You want it? Commit.
01:37 I am so grateful that I booked this pilot.
01:42 Nailed it!
01:43 Feels good.
