The next day, Michelle comes in to take to Mike and asks, "Are you going to talk to me today?" "She didn't consider my desires," Mike admits, "You made Navi." They get into a discussion about Navi. "I think you guys felt a little backdoored by it. I am friendly with some actors," Michelle explains, "I know she can do it." She talks about being proud of the cast, because they're with her name, and says that people will judge her in the future based on who her name is associated with in this film. "I feel like I've got what I wanted," she smirks, and that's the end of it. "Besides me pushing, she totally earned it," she tells a friend over the phone. She told Navi, "I can't wait until you prove me right and everyone else wrong."

John and Michelle discuss the role of hero, and they both are short with one another. "I'm just stewing about everything that'd happen over the week," John says. "It's so unfair," Michelle whines. "You undermined me," John rebukes. Michelle begins defending herself. "I, for not one minute, misrepresented myself or you," she argues. "She's supposed to fight for my opinions," John explains where he's coming from to the cameras. "If you want to believe I was malicious, I'm really sorry for that," she continues to whine about how he was upset about it and how he handled it. "I'm sorry it's different than what you thought it was going to be." She whines more, "I shouldn't have to deal with people's moods and attitudes. How old are we? It's just ridiculous."

A few days later, they go through the script to discuss his vision for specific parts of the film. There cast has really come together and John's girlfriend and father will be playing two roles in Feast, Harley Mom and the Bartender, respectively. They show his dad in the bar learning his role to "make it his own," John notes. "I think a lot of people can learn something from that." They cut to his father and the camera, "He wants his father to be in his first film had he wanted his mother in his first film," Clu – his father – says. "It lightens the load of this crummy life."

They still don't have the hero role cast, and they want to talk to Jean-Claude van Damme, but some aren't that convinced he will work. Since they have nothing to go on right now, they're strapped for time. Mark Wahlberg's name is thrown around as well.

They go to Panavision to do a monster screen test and see what they will look like on camera. "I have to say I felt a wave of relief. It just looked really good. Gary did a really good job," John is relieved. He gives some feedback on what he wants to see and what he wants to see more of as well.

One week to go and the sets are almost done as is the script; they are now moving their offices to the set. "We saw the next script and there were changes made that we didn't make," Marcus says, angrily. They want to work on one important scene, scene 74, which is an ensemble scene with the entire cast. "These are the scenes they [audience] get bored with," John admits, "We kind of decided to cut it." However, before they cut it, John and the writers sit down to try and fix it.
