"So every take, to your point, you're in that corner reloading, no pun intended. Um, it's like just emotionally just going, okay, relax, breathe, be as relaxed as you can so you have that— your ability to pull."
Kitsch describes the emotional preparation required for the climactic Terminal List boat scene where his character Ben Edwards confronts Chris Pratt's character. Unlike typical on-set atmosphere, both actors retreated to separate corners between takes to maintain the emotional intensity. The scene required enormous energy across multiple takes and became one of the most pivotal moments of the series.
