We even get to see Travis speak in character, as he macabrely says, “There is no future after this.”
As well as another clip of him looking fairly zonked out:
Earlier this year, Travis said what it was like working on the show on hisNew Heightspodcast, explaining, “I was kinda blown away and kinda, like, shocked that [Ryan] was willing to give me a role like this, because it is a big role on the show.”
“He seemed very confident that I’d be able to do this and he kinda injected that in me the first conversation that we had. So hopefully I don’t bomb this for him,” he continued. “I’m just taking it scene by scene and trying to make sure that I remember my lines. I’m very amateur at this.”
