Max is not having a good time at all
He thought he would finally have Daniel to himself after both Scotty and Josh got married and had kids — never mind the fact that he’s also had a baby since then because he’s special in the hierarchy
But then comes along someone who’s not even been on his radar as a threat and he has Daniel on all fours in less than 15 minutes and his guiding Daniel on how to open his hips???????
Max knows he lives in this very specific grey area of Daniel’s mind that’s a like a blind spot to all of Daniel’s rational thoughts. And does he exploit that? Yes of course he does.
He’s very aware of what Daniel allows him to get away with. Thank you very much.
He’s now wondering if Daniel would forgive him immediately for decking this actor in front of him and causing a PR shit storm or if Daniel would make him sweat a little bit 😤😤😤
Daniel’s giggling and gyrating and making comments about how his hips have been tight lately and he needs to get back into his stretching. And Hudson jumps in asking if he needs more pointers and Max is seeing red.
But he’s stopped from doing anything by a PR handler literally pushing a tiny baby duck rookie in his path who looks scared as hell like someone whose about to be trampled. And Max stops like he hit an invisible wall.
