Trust the process, trust the process, trust the process. Whoa. It's not like I know what the specific thing is going to be. And I think also, to bring it back, your guardian angel that you had there during the shooting process, I feel like, you know, the process leading up to the actual intervention, the preparation, those couple of days leading up, part of the confidence is knowing that at any time with any situation that pops up, you know, I have multiple numbers that I could call in my phone where I'm going to get an answer to a question that I might not have the answer for. Yeah.
