[Pulling back shades] Tom! Ready to work?
Only 12 hours till the Tonys.
Oh.
[Playing piano] Well, the Tony number
is finished, but... just when we thought we were done.
[Stops playing]
Now, we have to write a speech.
Not any the old speech, an acceptance speech.
Think we have a chance?
Okay, I brought programs from all the nominated shows.
What do you think?
Last good year. Love Pasek and Paul.
- Mm-hmm. - Imitation of life.
Pretentious. I cried like a baby.
- [Laughs] - Gathering storm, snoozeville.
How would you know? Agnes said you very distracted.
My future husband was sitting behind me.
Your future husband isn't even gay.
Tell that to his upper arms-s-s.
- Is this something? - It's from my lawyer.
I was supposed to write a detailed account
of my history with Michael Swift
to hopefully put an end to Frank's case against me.
And I feel like it just makes his case stronger.
Frank really thinks you were in love with Michael
from the time you met him? Yes.
You know that I wasn't, right?
- Of course. - Or was I?
So who should we thank?
I want to thank Peter stone and Tom wopat,
a great, great leading man who I...
You see how appropriately gracious I was.
So gracious you forgot to thank me.
I thanked you in person, that's better.
If you can tear up a little, they love it.
I don't need any pointers, because I'm not gonna win.
I'm nominated twice. That always splits the vote.
With me in the running, they're not gonna vote for you
for featured. You'll win lead, as you should.
Is that the dress you're wearing tonight?
What happened? That fit you perfectly last week.
It's fine. It's just stuck. I'll get it.
Have you been stress eating again?
Now's not the time to get fat, my dear.
[Chuckles]
I remember the day after I won my first one.
My career just skyrocketed.
I had so many offers, I didn't know what to do.
I was thinking about maybe taking some time off.
That's exactly what you can't do.
You have to dive in. It's all about momentum.
You lose that, you may never get it again.
[Laughs] Take time off!
What's gotten into you?
[Signs]
[Elevator dings]
Hi.
Juice, coffee, shaving cream.
What? I told you I was bringing supplies.
I thought you meant more booze.
Yeah, well, that you seem capable of getting yourself.
They deliver.
So you've been in this room the whole time?
Just... just gonna stay in here forever?
It's your third time you've been at this.
I thought after the first time, I'd scared you off.
Yeah, well, I'm worried about you.
Don't be, I deserve it.
Did all the things I said I did.
Remember what you said in Boston?
"The more you hurt, the better."
I just said that to get you onstage.
Well, it worked.
And I'm glad I did it.
This will pass, but you have to let it.
Do I really?
[Pouring liquid] You can see yourself out.
Five, six, seven.

Uh, what's going on?
I thought we were doing Voice in a dream for Tonys.
So did I until they called me in.
Jimmy didn't want to perform,
so Jerry thought this was a good substitute.
Stop. Stop.
- What is it, Daisy? - Jodie is a beat behind.
It's bad enough we have to work with her every night.
Now we have to go on national television
and help her look good?
Ugh, it's disgusting.
Hey, can I make a quick call?
Yeah. Five minutes, then you're in.
- Hi. - Hey.
- Tony rehearsal? - Yeah.
- Let's be bad. - I'm not sorry.
- With Daisy Parker? - Mm.
Ooh. Speaking of, is Derek in there?
Uh, no. He hasn't left his place in weeks.
And I've... I've tried to pull him out of it,
but I don't have the magic touch,
not like you did, anyway.
I'm sure he'll get it together.
Yeah, I'm not so sure. He's in a pretty dark place.
I've never seen him like this before.
Hey, I forgot to ask,
can you remind Jimmy to pick up his tickets for tonight?
He has until 3:00 or he's gonna lose them.
He hasn't picked up his tickets?
Wow, that's cutting it close.
Can you make your phone call and come back?
Daisy just corrected Lexi on her one line.
Not pretty in there. Ugh.
Okay. Thanks.
I don't know how you can work with that girl.
We have to.
I'm not so sure about that. You guys outnumber her.
If you don't want to perform with her,
you shouldn't have to.
Hey, I hadn't thought about that.
See ya.
[Line ringing]
Hey. How's it going over there?
I'm not gonna lie. It's a little strange.
We're doing I'm not sorry.
Yeah, Jerry thought that would be a better choice.
Are you getting cold feet about tonight?
What?
Well, Marissa said that you didn't want to perform.
So I just... I got a weird feeling about it.
- I'm fine. Um... - Okay.
Why don't you pick me up tonight? We can go together.
I was just gonna go from here, so...
My place at 6:00. Don't be late.
Yeah, okay.
Looks good.
Where should I send your deposit?
Keep it.
Rene, come on.
How'd you find me? I knew where you were.
I was gonna leave you alone, since that's what you wanted.
What I wanted was to not complicate your life anymore.
You're the only thing that's clear in my life right now.
What's that?
Win or lose, I want you next to me tonight.
[Phone dialing]
Jerry, I need to talk to you.
They refuse to do the number.
What, the entire company, you're telling me?
Karen, Gabe, Lexi, all the dancers. It's a coup.
Well, they don't want to perform,
they don't have to perform.
You just got yourself a solo on the Tonys.
I think Reach for me would be great, don't you?
I'll make the call.
Nice place. Wow. These all yours?
Yup.
Except that one. That was Kyle's.
He left it here.
He spent the night a few times. I guess I never told you that.
No, you most certainly did not.
- I knew. [Laughs] - You did?
[Laughing] Yeah. I mean, he really liked you.
I really liked him too.
[Tea kettle whistling] Tea's ready.
Look, I know what he meant to you,
but I really hope that you'll find another partner
and keep writing.
Maybe not now, but in the future.
You have a gift. You can't let that go to waste.
So what's the favor you wanted to ask me?
Um...
If...
Kyle wins tonight, um...
I was just hoping maybe you could accept it for him.
Are you not gonna be there?
Jimmy, what are you doing?
Look, this is your moment. You can't miss it.
Stop sabotaging yourself. Whatever makes you do that,
it's time to face it, once and for all.
It's not too late.
- Good luck... good luck tonight. - You too.
You can leave it on the table.
[Footsteps approaching]
Oh, my God. What...
What is the point of having a bloody doorman?
Well, you don't look good.
Yeah, well... [Grunts]
Look, I know you haven't had a good couple of weeks.
Oh, yeah, you think?
No, I'm done, all right?
My agent won't talk to me,
not a theater in town will touch me.
The...
The guys that deliver this, they won't look me in the eye.
So, no, I have not had a good few weeks.
Why did you do it?
[Chuckles]
Do you know what I actually do? I bluff.
All day long.
What do I know, eh?
It's pretty lonely.
I always thought you knew that.
I do.
I'm tired, Ivy, all right? I'm so tired.
It's not all gone.
Am I gonna see you there tonight?
Oh, yeah, for sure. Yeah.
Yeah, spending the evening in a room
full of sanctimonious pricks who've got it in for me?
Yeah, I'll be there.
I don't want to be there without you.
I know I hurt you.
And you hurt me too.
But that doesn't mean I don't love you.
I'll see you there.
Oh, and...
Take a shower.
Smells like a dive bar in here.
Why am I here?
Uh, [Clears throat].
This is the letter my lawyer asked me to give to you.
I don't understand.
What's going on, Julia?
I told someone today that this was their moment
to face the truth,
and if I'm gonna give that kind of advice,
I need to do the same.
I met Michael years before you knew I did.
I didn't sleep with him,
but I thought about it, and him, a lot.
And I never really let it go.
For much of our marriage, he was there.
[Chuckles]
I see.
And it wasn't because I didn't love you.
I just didn't love you the right way.
So I'm not gonna give you this letter.
[Clears throat]
I think that you should do whatever you want...
Concerning the settlement.
I won't refute anything.
Julia.
Thank you.
[Pop music playing]
Okay, it is actually not fair how beautiful you look.
Oh, what's not fair is you're not going too.
Oh, believe me, I'm gonna cry after you leave.
- Is he not here? - No.
Sorry.
Yeah, I have to stop feeling this way.
Look, forget about him. You are a Tony nominee.
No matter what happens, no one can take that away from you.
Google "Karen Cartwright," and that's what's gonna come up
from now until the end of time. I know.
I just wish he'd come through, just once.
[Knocking at door]
I'm late.
I noticed.
You didn't think I'd show.
Well, you don't have a very good track record.
[Chuckles] Why aren't you dressed?
What are you talking about?
Well, I mean, this is Kyle's ticket.
You didn't think he'd want us to go without you, did you?
- Oh! - Really?
- Yeah. - Oh, my God!
- Okay, I need 15 minutes. - Go!
All right, I'm sorry! Thank you!

Daisy Parker, Hit List.

This is Hit List's fifth award of the evening.
Good thing you got to practice that face, huh?
Wow, I can' believe it.
And now, Tony award winner, Ron Rifkin.
It's so loud in here, I can hardly hear
the crazy thoughts in my head.
You got it in the bag.
The nominees for best book of a musical are...
Oh, is it possible I want Kyle to win instead of me?
I mean, could I actually be that selfless?
Historically, no, but people change.
Kyle Bishop, Hit List.

Julia Houston, Bombshell.

This is taking forever. Why... why is it...
Talk faster, come on! You sound like Kyle.
Ugh!
The last good year.
[Applause]
And the Tony goes to...
Kyle Bishop, Hit List.
[Sobs]
He did it. [Laughs]
Accepting for Kyle Bishop is Jimmy Collins.
[Cheers and applause]
- You okay? - Yeah.
But it turns out that I actually did want it.
God, he would've loved this. [Chuckles and sniffs]
He would've loved it because he loved Broadway.
He... he even used to keep this collection of Playbills
from... from shows that flopped,
and he would carry them around with him
everywhere that he went.
He pulled extra shifts for two weeks
just to save up enough money to buy a train ticket to Boston
to see this one.
And I-I remember, when he came back.
Well, he said the show needed some work...
[Laughter] But... but that it was magical.
And that there was this girl in it.
This girl that could make you smile, and...
Break your heart in the same second.
She signed this for him a month later at the bar,
and that is the only reason that I am standing here tonight,
so thank you. Thank you all for giving Kyle something...
To love... his whole life,
and... well, you were right, Julia.
[Sniffs] It's never too late. Thanks.
[Cheers and applause]
Now, I am happy to present the Tony award
for the best original score,
music and/or lyrics written for the theater.
The nominees...
Bombshell, music by Tom Levitt, lyrics by Julia Houston.
Hit List, music and lyrics by Jimmy Collins.
Big night for Hit List.
I'm starting to feel like they deserve it.
They spent the last year fighting like high schoolers.
- Now they're a team. - We were them once.
You saying we aren't anymore?
I'm saying Jimmy deserves original score,
and we deserve cocktails with olives in them.
- [Laughs] - Several.
I want a drink in a coconut.
Where can we get that? The winner is... Bombshell.
Is there still a trader vic's in New York?
Like in that midtown hotel?

Julia.
Both: [Laugh]
Oh, my goodness!
This is Bombshell's second award of the night,
having won earlier for best costume design.
We wrote a speech, but completely forgot it.

And now, Tony winner Kathleen Marshall.
The nominees for best choreography are...
Casey Nicholaw for The gathering storm.
Susan Stroman for Imitation of life.
I can't believe Derek didn't come.
- How can he not be here? - Maybe because
he didn't want to experience this.
Derek Wills for Bombshell.

Thank you, Patrick. That's very kind of you.
Look, this might seem like it's coming out of left field,
but have you two ever considered writing a movie?

Karen, she was just lying there, not moving,

I mean, I went off the grid, I hid with Adam, Kyle,
I eventually changed my name.
I've been looking over my shoulder for so long,
I couldn't even see my future anymore.
Why are you telling me this right now?
Because this has haunted me every day...
Until today.
