Living in Hollyhood, it was just a matter of time before Paul and Juicy were approached about being in movies. The guys get a call from their agent Rosenberg who has news that there is a casting director who is looking to meet with both of them. While Paul is reluctant, and tells Rosenberg that he's going stay away from acting, Juicy eagerly accepts the invitation, fully knowing how much money can be made from appearing in film. Rosenberg warns Juicy to not get ahead of himself and advises him to go see an acting coach before he actually meets the casting director face to face. The next day Juicy, heads out to take acting lessons, but he brings the entire gang with him. Juicy's coach starts him off with vocal exercises and tongue twisters. When Triece and Computer chime in on Juicy's acting skills, the coach turns the spotlight on them and makes them attempt the exercises. After everyone has some laughs at Triece and Computer's expense, the coach kicks the class clowns out he tells Juicy that even though he's got a lot of work ahead of him, he can see the he's go talent. Later that evening the guys get another call from Rosenberg who has more good news. Turns out a company that makes action figures has decided to move forward with a Three-6 Mafia toy line. The next day all five guys head down to the toy company to be immortalized as little plastic figurines. Later that afternoon Juicy receives his first script via email. On the way to the auditions he admits to Paul that he's nervous; however is friends are supportive of him, and make it a point let him know that confidence is key. The audition doesn't go a smoothly as Juicy hopes for, and spends most of his time stumbling over his words. The casting director admits that she sees something in Juicy's acting, but thinks he ultimately needs some tweaks. On his way out Juicy convinces her to give him a second chance, but only under the condition that he spends more time preparing for his next reading. When Juicy gets home he immediately gets down to business, and begins to study his script. After spending most of the day practicing, Juicy gets a call from Fern, the only friend the guys have made in their neighborhood, to let the guys know she is planning a visit. When Fern arrives at the house, Juicy makes her sit down with him so they can go over lines with each other. Fern gives Juicy some firm advice and tells him to read slower so that his words don't get eaten up by his heavy southern accent. After spending some time unwinding in the studio with Paul, Juicy begins to feel like he's ready to go for his second shot with the casting director. When he arrives at his audition, both the director and casting director are waiting for him. Even though they are initially put off by Juicy's appearance, the casting director admits that she can see that he put sometime into learning his part. Juicy walks out of the audition with a giant shining grin on his face and reports that the director is going to make his decision and call him back later. When the guys return home, a package addressed to the Three-6 Mafia arrives shortly after, containing the action figures they were scanned for earlier. While Juicy and Paul received their own figures, Computer, Triece, and Pat only receive heads. Despite the lack of bodies, the guys get a kick out of their scaled down versions.
