afford chance depend drive everybody heard help jump leave nice people public realize work
We've all heard the question. Why didn't these people just leave when they had the chance? But now we realize that not everybody can just jump into their SUVs and drive to a nice hotel. These people depend on public transportation and these people can't afford a nice hotel, because some of them work there. Now it's your chance to help them.

I go in a booth and I go, ‘what’s the line?’ And the guy goes, ‘it’s time to go to the store.’ And I go, ‘it’s time to go to the store!’ … And then they give me a million dollars.

You want to work with people who are excited about doing the show. I didn't get the sense that she wanted to do it just because I was involved in it. She just really liked the script, and I responded to that.
