Leon did not want Jules to know it was him that pulled the strings for him at Star Media. During their chat in the following days, Leon was totally silent about it.
Leon did not expect anything in return for doing the favour, and moreover, in his view, there was nothing Jules could do to repay him.
Since they did not know each other very well, if Jules had heard about this, it would only make things more embarrassing. This was also the reason why Leon did not contact Hawkins before. He was worried that Hawkins would tell Jules about it one day, making Jules think too much about it.
Leon had enough confidence in Angela's ability. Reminding her that doing one thing twice was enough for Leon to be sure of getting things done.
Leon soon forgot about this matter and, Jules had no idea about the whole story anyway. They acted as usual.
......
Miner broke up with his new girlfriend due to some trivial matters. To release his grievances, he got staggering drunk with his buddies. Daring not to go home, Miner had someone send him to Jules's place.
Miner wobbled right to the front door. After knocking on the door several times, Jules sat on the ground and started to Bang the door heavily.
"Peters! Peters!!!"
In the quiet midnight, nothing was to be heard but Leon's squeal: "Where is Peters?!"
After Leon banged on the door for a minute long, Jules opened it. Looking at deadly drunk Leon, Jules was silent for a few seconds and then said in a low voice: "You don't think my neighbours will complain about me, do you?"
Leon raised his head and gave an oblique look to Jules, then opened his mouth with rage: "Who would dare complain about you? Who would fucking dare?! Is that the opposite door? The guy living in 202? Get the hell out, you bastard! Watch how I..."
"Ok, ok. Stop making a fool of yourself..."Jules was done with Leon's stupid behaviour, so he bent over to pull Leon up and support him, staggering to the house.
"Cut!"
Leon sobered up right away. He stood up and held up Jules who was almost squeezed out of the frame by him. Then Leon asked the director: "Is that shot alright?"
Tripp focused on the play and said in an indescribable tone: "You always perform extremely well in such scenes."
Assistant director could not help eliciting an unexpected burst of laughter.
"Piss off. "Leon said, "I never go rowdy when drunk. I only just kick the door or climb into the window."
Jules gave a complicated look to Leon. He had no idea why this was better than going rowdy.
Vivian carried a down jacket and stood by. She nodded trying not to smile: "It's true. I can corroborate it."
"Right? "On seeing Tripp still not believing him, Leon said: "You still don't believe me? All right, then ask Jules to see if I really behave well after drinking."
Jules: "..."
Throw the topic to me? Now?
Are you sure? Mr. Movie King Leon?
Jules forced a smile, and said: "Leon is just joking."
Jules never mentioned to anyone that he had took Leon home because of a mistakenly sent message.
Leon was stunned in first place, but then he smiled without saying anything.
The next shot was taken indoors.
