- E and Ari panic when Vince agrees to do his own stunts in the new Nick Cassavetes movie. Drama and Turtle have work issues of different kinds, and Ari considers a foray into the NFL.
- As Vince (Adrian Grenier) shoots an action movie directed by Nick Cassavetes, he is asked to perform a dangerous driving stunt that could be fatal. Vince is not convinced, but can't say no directly, as the director is extremely passionate. The director says that the audience is smart and if they see a stunt double performing the scene, it will make the movie look bad, and will make Vince look weak. Vince wants E to take care of it, but doesn't want it to come across as if he is not a team player.
Eric (Kevin Connolly) and Ari (Jeremy Piven) intervene, but there may be no stopping it. Vince finds out that if he doesn't drive at the right angle, the car might flip over during the stunt. Ari confronts Nick, but he finds that Nick hasn't even told the studio and the stunt is not insured. Nick threatens to kill Ari if he tells the Studio. Ari asks E to tell the studio. Jennie (Janet Montgomery) is E's new assistant at work.
Nick goes ballistic when the studio calls Nick. Nick convinces Vince that all great actors do their own stunts. Vince agrees to do the stunt by himself. Vince does the stunt, and everyone loves it, even though he crashes the car at the end of it. Ari had to cancel his dinner plans with Melissa (Perrey Reeves) to take care of this and his numerous other clients. Due to his big agency and the subsequent demands on his time, Ari has less and less time for his family.
Now running a fledgling car service business (driven by beautiful women), Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) is frustrated when an employee named Alex (Dania Ramirez) causes problems for him. Alex is often late and tardy. She can't find directions & makes excuses for her mistakes. Turtle has a crush on Alex and doesn't fire her even though everyone advises him to. Next, Alex loses a car at a parking lot when she forgets which floor, she parked it on. Alex says that she has a lot on her mind, and that her parents are going through a divorce. Turtle tries to kiss her, but she pushes him away. Alex decides to quit the job.
Drama (Kevin Dillon) wants a job since his holding deal will expire in eight weeks. Phil Yagoda (William Fichtner) calls Drama in for a meeting and tells him that he has 3 shows ready to produce, but they are not ready to make them yet. So, they don't have anything for Drama so far. Phil tells Drama to get his agent to make some noise about this and fast. Lloyd has not been forthcoming about his prospects, and Ari is the one who gives Drama a harsh reality check. Ari tells Drama that the network is producing new shows, but not offering any to Drama. The holding deal was just a polite way of turning Drama down. Lloyd tells Drama that the network and Phil are making the Fall Guy, but starring Dean Cain, instead of Drama. He advises Drama to let the holding deal run out and says something will come along. Drama confronts Phil who tells Drama to continue to push his agent to land him a new show.
