HW: What's the one thing you two did to put yourselves on the FBI's radar and make them suspicious of you?
SL: We've been framed as criminals. We're target criminals. I show up at my apartment and there's boxes of ammunition, there's bag of fertilizer, there's weaponry, there's maps, there's directions on bomb making. There's a lot of things that would point to me being a terror suspect. He decides to leave the apartment and the journey begins.
HW: From the physical aspect, is it hard to maintain the emotional energy level?
MM: I think it's probably easier. This is the most physically demanding role I know I've done, but it really just heightens everything that you've got to lose. It really does feel like that. We're just running and gunning a lot. That momentum is there. I think that helps us tell the story.
