Creator's Key Takeaways

It's closing night of Torque. It's cast one's closing night. There will never ever ever be another cast one.

My parents are also here. That's that's an important detail. They came all this freaking way from Arizona to watch you do your last show.

I love this show so much. It's been a show I've never gotten sick of. If I'm going to be doing a show, I want it to be this show.

It's been a long long long journey, but it's good to come to a close. I'm really excited. I'm really fulfilled with what this contract and what this show has done.
