I'm pretty proud of that scene and where it ended up, so -
But it sucked.
I was crying for eight hours straight,
I think, that day.
- That was a tough day.
Yeah.
- Can I throw another one out there?
I tried to tell you guys,
I tried to tell you guys in the show, but John B,
never go up against a gator.
Alright?
Why'd you have to stay in that water?
- [Madison] That's another one of your top five.
- How did nobody bring that up?
- You would've been got.
You would've been got by mama gator.
- I'm like a cat, I got nine lives, you know?
Sarah's got nine now, well eight.
- I don't know,
I would've been dead.
- I mean, you kinda came in clutch with that knife though.
- I mean, apparently you'd stabbed a gator in the eye.
- Yeah, that was pretty crazy.
- I've got good aim.
- Wildest Pogue moment.
- Thank god.
- [Rudy] Rotisserie chicken style.
- If you missed, I would be dead.
- It's that hand-eye coordination.
- Stabbing, stab.
- Yeah.
[Laughs]
- Chase, you should've,
you should've let out, like, "Ah, that was me!"
- "Oh, you punctured my lung!"
- There was -
OK, there was one moment, though, when we were in the water
and I thought I had actually, like -
The knife was a prop knife and it was made out of rubber,
but there was one moment where I actually thought I had
gotten Chase, and it was incredibly cold that day.
It was not the kind of day you would want
to stop a take in the middle of it.
You just wanna get done.
And I stopped.
I was like, "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
undefined
And he came back around,
cause they had the gator on rotisserie.
And so, Chase was coming up like, 50%, of the time.
And I thought I had gotten him.
And so I stopped, and he came back around, and I was like,
undefined
And he's like,

- We can do this for 14 days, honestly.
We could just sit down and dissect moment by moment.
- We could go through every episode and pull at least three.
- Go through the whole season and narrate it and be like,
"This was pretty crazy.
"I don't know if we would've survived that.
- The feeling of being back on set for Season 2, for me,
it felt like we were coming back for sophomore year.
I was wearing my old shoes.
They have been worn to the ground.
There's no arch support.
And I felt like I was home.
- Yeah, coming back for Season 2,
I totally thought we'd just, like, slip right in.
It would feel, like,
great. It's like we already got done with freshman year
but then there were, like, sophomore slips. Like, day one,
I called 'Line.' - [Jonathan] Oh, yeah.
I had three lines in that scene and I called, 'Line,' day one
back on set.
- Yeah, and Bailey and I were in that first scene together,
and I remember I was like,
I went up her and I was like,
"Bailey, I just want to let you know that
"if you hadn't have called, 'Line',
"I sure would have because my line was right after yours
"and I had no idea what I was about to say."
[Laughs]
- Yeah, and I was like, "That makes me feel so much better."
- Hi, we're the cast of 'Outer Banks'
and this is the top five wildest Pogue moments,
from Season 2.
With having the fan base that has now been established,
it was definitely not just a need,
but a want to kind of bring something special and unique.
And so this season in particular,
I think there's so much going on and it's so high stakes and
there was kind of a concern for us, like,
how can you make the stakes even higher?
And so, when we kinda got all the scripts,
I think collectively we can agree were like,
undefined
And for all of us,
we hold each other really accountable with the work, so
whether it's doing a scene together
or whatever the case may be, if somebody is not feeling it,
or if you're working across from any of these guys,
you're going to know whether or not
it doesn't feel truthful or if it's not
hitting its points and finding the right moment.
So, I'm just glad that we're all very honest with each other
in the work and outside of work as well,
because it just makes everything more -
I guess, the truth in the work kinda seeps through.
And I hope people see it this season.
- That was beautiful.
Oh my god. - Beautiful.
Beautifully, eloquently put.
- I think our first wildest Pogue moment is when we all,
when the Pogues reunite.
Just from there on out, shooting things,
like, all back together,
it did feel like a reunion in a way,
because we were finally back in it.
We were finally all back together, and it just like,
as fun as everything is in the first two and a half,
three episodes,
it's just not the same without the Pogues.
It's just, it's not the same when we're all not together.
And all of that,
all of the fun we have with, like, the improv
and the jig-jacky moments between the Pogues,
you miss that.
I did.
And so, from there on out we were basically,
we were shooting together again.
And so it did feel like this,
"Oh my God, we're back."
And those reactions were just,
those reactions did feel very genuine in that sense.
- It was a very serendipitous moment because not only was it
the reunion of the Pogues,
but the majority of Charleston had showed up too.
So, the entire Battery was filled with people.
The police department was called.
It got crazy really fast.
- It got rowdy.
- They were watching.
- It was fun, it was Pogue stuff.
- Yeah.
It was, like, "Wow, OK, the city of Charleston
undefined
They have no idea what's going on, right?
But they can, kinda, pick pieces apart
and, kinda, make an assumption.
It was just awesome.
It's always awesome to have the five of us working together.
And there's so much kind of,
I don't know, there's a little magic spark
that continually happens,
regardless of it being an emotional scene,
a comedic scene,
a dramatic scene.
There's always just something that happens that
I feel like, in my heart,
just finds its way to the surface.
And so, I just remember looking around, like,
undefined
- JJ attempting to break John B out of jail
is got to be -
It's gotta be in the top five worst Pogue ideas-
- [Madelyn] Ever.
- Ever.
[Laughs]
- Pogue Hall of Fame.
- I mean, Pogue Hall of Fame, I did say that.
I did say Pogue Hall of Fame there.
- Bringing me back, you know.
- I'm not gonna say
there's actual personal experience trying to do that.
But, uh,
I would say -
- Wait a minute.
- A little too specific there.
- But, at the same time,
doing that scene or working with Valerie [Weiss],
who was the director of that episode, has always,
it was -
Val just, like these guys said,
we had the idea and we usually, our first idea,
we run with it, and Val just lets me do that.
Like, Val's also just like, "What's your first idea, Rudy?"
I'm like, "This is what I'm envisioning."
And she's like, "Do it and then we'll tweak it later."
And usually,
usually we don't need to tweak it
cause she likes going that far with it.
And, yeah.
And that was a fun experience.
I also had a great time, if you're gonna be talking about
the jail breaking out scene,
working with Chase in that scene
and just rick raffin' back and forth.
That's not a saying, I know. But
we're sitting down at the table and
we just kept going back and forth.
We had this funny ad-lib that didn't make it in the show
about he was in a Bob the Builder suit.
I wish it was in there.
[Laughs]
That was all Chase.
That was all Chase in that, so it was a blast.
- Yeah, that was a fun one.
That was a good day.
- The third craziest moment, for me at least, is
just rationalizing John B and Sarah
hopping in an open-top boat
and being like, "Let's go back.
undefined
And I'm just like, "You know what?
undefined
Right there, and I want you guys,
I think it should be a deleted scene.
- Hold up, how long was that boat ride?
- There should be a special featured scene.
- I just wanna know how long that ride is.
- No, no, no,
so the thing is, y'all, we got in an Uber from -
- Oh, right.
- From the Bahamas back to the Outer, no
back to Charleston.
- Yeah, it was -
- It was Uber helicopter.
- It was Uber, yeah, they have Uber boat now.
- And they dragged it all the way back.
- It was a can-Uber, you guys just went all the way back.
- Can-Uber.
[Laughs]
- So for my top,
one of my top five wildest ride Pogue moments,
how about when we tried to take over a shipping container?
How about, you know,
full of pirates?
And with, like, four, like,
the four of us were just like, "Yeah, we got this."
- [Madelyn] "We can do it." [Laughs]
- "Alright guys, adults with guns and, like, obviously,
the obvious intrepid advantage. Like, we're just like,
"Let's do it." - I love how
Pope tried to rationalize it a little bit.
He's like, "OK, this is decent odds."
- That's how he's gotta explain it for himself like that
so he doesn't lose his mind.
He's like, "15 to 5? Yeah, that, those are odds.
undefined
- Like, "That's a statistic."
- Yeah.
- That's a thing that could happen.
- That you had to jump
into the container ship is definitely -
- Yeah.
First, yeah, step one was getting on the ship.
So, the Pogue moment starts there.
- I didn't voluntarily jump off, I just fell off.
That was my,
that wasn't on me.
That wasn't on me. - [Jonathan] Oh, yeah.
- And the last wildest Pogue moment from Season 2 is,
I gotta say,
Rafe shooting Sarah, like,
a brother shooting his sister
feels like a pretty ridiculous moment.
You know, I think when we got the scripts,
that was something that horrified me,
to actually go through an experience like that, where
it's real.
Obviously you have somebody laying on a table like that
and sort of taking some
of the personal side of our relationship and
incorporating that into the work.
So,
that was pretty raw and gut wrenching.
And it took me a little while
to, kinda, bounce back from that.
It wasn't a quick, easy transition back into normalcy.
So, I'm just glad it turned out OK.
