Come sit down.

Come on in.

Hi.

SCOTT FOLEY
How are you?

FANATIC
I'm doing good.
(to SCOTT SPEEDMAN) I saw you run by.

SCOTT SPEEDMAN
Yah.

FANATIC
This is very weird
(laughing)
I want to ask you, what's the weirdest part about being famous?

SCOTT FOLEY
This.

SCOTT SPEEDMAN
This.

GREG GRUNBERG
Yah, this.

SCOTT FOLEY
It's very, very strange.

FANATIC
It's strange for you, as well?

AMY JO JOHNSON
Oh my god, yah.

KERI RUSSELL
WE were talking about how nervous we were before.

FANATIC
Nah un.

SCOTT FOLEY
Yah.

KERI RUSSELL
Yah.

SCOTT FOLEY
I'm really red right now. I'm completely flushed, I'm so nervous.

FANATIC
Oh

FANATIC
Do you ever watch your show on TV?

KERI RUSSELL
Yah. I do try to watch it.

SCOTT FOLEY
Oh, yah.

AMY JO JOHNSON
Wednesday nights in April.

KERI RUSSELL
Oh, that's right...

(CAST laughing)

* * *

FANATIC
What do you hope to see happen with your character in the future?

KERI RUSSELL
I don't know. We just, we just hope it stays real, you know.

FANATIC
The writers are very good.

KERI RUSSELL
Yes

SCOTT FOLEY
You're a writer, right?

FANATIC
Oh, you know that?

SCOTT FOLEY
Oh, yah.

(CAST nodding)

FANATIC
I have a question about that. Do you have any suggestions for someone who hopes to become a script writer for a television show?

AMANDA FOREMAN
The things is to keep writing, keep writing. I mean, it sounds obvious. But, like, don't just write one thing, and then, sent it in, and go, "Okay. Gosh. Gee. I hope." Like, always, always be writing. And, sooner or later something will click and you'll get better and better.
(BEAT)
I mean, I'm not a writer, but, that's...

(CAST laughs)

SCOTT FOLEY
(laughing)
...If I was, that's what I do.

FANATIC
I agree with that, though.

GREG GRUNBERG
(laughing)
...I read that somewhere

* * *

FANATIC
Um, should viewers expect to see Julie hooking up wtih someone in an upcoming episode, possibly one of her roomates?

AMY JO JOHNSON
Uh...well...

GREG GRUNBERG
Boy, I hope so...

(CAST laughing)

GREG GRUNBERG
...Man, do I hope so.

SCOTT FOLEY
Been pinning for a while.

GREG GRUNBERG
I know, I'm like s stalker. I wait for her to come home, and...

* * *

FANATIC
Well, I don't know.

SCOTT FOLEY
If you were writing an episode, who would you write Julie to be with?

FANATIC
Well, I did write an episode.

SCOTT FOLEY
Oh.

GREG GRUNBERG
Really?

SCOTT SPEEDMAN
Yes.

KERI RUSSELL
Like, here it is.

FANATIC
No, um. Like, during Christman break, I wrote an episode 'cause, like, I couldn't wait to find out, like, what would happen. So, I wrote my own thing for you guys.
(gesturing to SCOTT FOLEY and KERI RUSSELL)
And, you ended up holding hands, and...
(gesturing to SCOTT SPEEDMAN)
...you kind of got into a drunk driving accident.

CAST
(laughing and clapping)
Oh.

SCOTT SPEEDMAN
...a drunk driving accident.
(nodding)
Yup.

(CAST laughs)

FANATIC
(gesturing to KERI RUSSELL)
And, it was your birthday on the show.

SCOTT FOLEY
You haven't had a birthday, yet.

KERI RUSSELL
No.

AMANDA FOREMAN
Felicity doesn't age.

KERI RUSSELL
No.

SCOTT FOLEY
She doesn't

AMANDA FOREMAN
No
FANATIC
I have a question just for you.
(gesturing to KERI RUSSELL)
Was cutting your hair your idea or the shows?

KERI RUSSELL
It started out as a joke. The very last day of the season. Our hair person, Laura, whose hiding somewhere was putting away all her wigs. And, I tried on one of these really short wigs. As a joke, took a Polaroid of it. Over the summer, I sent it to JJ and Matt, the executive producers, with a letter just saying, "Oh, I'm having the best summer. And, I did this photo shoot. They wanted to do something different. I hope you don't mind. It looks great." blah, blah, blah. Then, they called. "We hope you're kidding."
And, then, right before we went back, they called me over the summer. And, said, "You know we know it was a joke, but, would you mind cutting it. We have an idea for a story."
I said sure.

FANATIC
And, you're okay with it.

KERI RUSSELL
Yah.

* * *

FANATIC
If you could be someone else for 24 hours. Who would you be? What would you do and why?

SCOTT FOLEY
I think I'd be my dad.

AMY JO JOHNSON
You'd be your dad?

SCOTT SPEEDMAN
yah.

SCOTT FOLEY
Yah!

AMY JO JOHNSON
That would be interesting. Oh my god.

SCOTT FOLEY
Just to get an idea, so, maybe I'd understand.

AMANDA FOREMAN
Weird. Freudian creepy.

SCOTT FOLEY
It would be very strange

AMANDA FOREMAN
And, what would you do?

SCOTT FOLEY
Never mind.

AMANDA FOREMAN
Exactly.

(CAST laughing)

AMY JO JOHNSON
I think I'd be my niece, Morgan.

FANATIC
Just to be carefree and everything.

AMY JO JOHNSON
Yah.

* * *

FANATIC
Well, I want to thank you guys. This means alot to me. And, I'm just so glad you guys all agreed to do this and I'm going to remember this for the rest of my life.

CAST
Ah.

SCOTT FOLEY
Thank you so much.

GREG GRUNBERG
Good Luck with your writing.

AMY JO JOHNSON
Yah.
