WHEN PEOPLE shower in real life, it’s to wash away the grime of sleep or of a long day. Sometimes they just stand in the warm water, letting it work out the knots in their muscles.

When people shower in the movies, it lasts only seconds, water sluicing down their bodies, steam curling up as the camera focuses on their backs and shoulders.

But when people shower while making a movie, it sucks.

Because it goes on forever.

“Shit,” the gaffer muttered in the second hour. “We need to fix the lighting again.”

“Cut!”

Josy was wet. Still. And while the water was still warm, he was positive he never wanted to take a shower again for the rest of his life.

Someone reached in and turned off the water.

The makeup artist came back in and started touching him up.

The modesty pouch was uncomfortable. It made him look like a wannabe exotic dancer.

His nipples were hard.

His beard felt droopy.

“Acting,” he muttered to himself. “I am acting.”

“Let’s do it again,” Roger said gleefully.

Quincy was watching the playback on a camera. “Uh, Josy?”

“Yeah?”

“Maybe… um. Maybe this time, you could. Uh. Like. Put your arm up on the shower wall. Facing away from us. And just… stand there.”

Josy nodded because he could take direction. “I can do that. Should I flex any part of myself?”

“No! No. Absolutely not necessary. It’s… nope. Don’t need any flexing.”

“All right,” the gaffer said. “That should hold for now. You want to go again?”

Quincy nodded.

The makeup artist disappeared.

The water was turned back on.

“Remember,” Quincy said as Josy turned around, putting his arm up against the tile. “Dante went back home. Your father, who you don’t know anymore, is dying. You think he’s lying about all the things he’s told you. It’s heavy. It’s weighing on you. You’re angry and sad.”

“The sad mads in the shower,” Josy said. “Got it.”

It only took another hour.
