00:00Whatever.
00:00You never really listen.
00:02Not to my words.
00:03Not to my heart.
00:05Oh.
00:06Oh, Susan.
00:06Simon's Kira's first love.
00:08And you are just a useless stay-at-home husband.
00:12Kira, if I didn't agree to take care of you five years ago, I'd still be a lead astrophysicist at NASX.
00:19Neil, everyone here at NASX is blown away by your proposal.
00:24How do you feel about going to Mars?
00:26Now you can be with your first and only love.
00:29It's time to live for myself.
00:30You're going to be off-climate for a year.
00:33No calls.
00:33No contact.
00:35Space was always my dream.
00:37Goodbye, Kira.
00:38This time is forever.
00:40Neil, I've changed.
00:42That's not me.
00:42I've changed.
00:43Just give me one more chance.
00:45Who is she, Neil?
00:46Are you dating her?
00:48You can't turn back the clock.
00:50And I have somebody new now.
00:57The anniversary, Kira.
00:58Eight years loving you.
01:00Five years calling you my wife.
01:03Today, our special day.
01:05I'll finally give you what you always wanted.
01:07Freedom.
01:09Sealed in ink.
01:10Divorce papers.
01:11Now you can be with your first and only love.
01:21Oh, Simon.
01:22I've been putting seizure medication in all your jackets, spraying your clothes with diazepam.
01:29But you never even noticed these things.
01:32That's fine.
01:33Simon can take care of you from now on.
01:36I learned how to cook for you and our future child.
01:38But you don't even want kids with me.
01:43So that's why I never got pregnant.
01:46Even now, I sit here still worrying about your safety.
01:51A lot of habits die slow, I guess.
01:53And unloving you will take some time.
01:55Hey, where have you been?
01:56It's one in the morning.
01:58You have a condition you can't drink.
02:00You know that.
02:01Yes, Simon.
02:02I just got home.
02:05That smile.
02:06She never smiled at me like that.
02:09So are we still on for Norway next week?
02:11Because I found a gorgeous, gorgeous ski resort in the mountain.
02:16Why, yeah, of course it'll be just us.
02:19And thanks for letting me wear your jacket.
02:22It smells just like you.
02:29What the hell is your problem?
02:32Pick that up.
02:35Where do you have Simon's jacket?
02:36Oh, my God.
02:37We were drinking in his hotel room, and I spilled some wine on myself.
02:41So I showered and changed my clothes, and they borrowed his jacket.
02:45What is the big deal?
02:47You were at his hotel room drinking alone, eh?
02:51It doesn't matter.
02:53Look, I made your meal, and I fixed room up upstairs.
02:56God, Neil, can you get off my back?
02:59I mean, seriously, you remember that I pay for everything, right?
03:04And you are just a useless...
03:07stay-at-home husband.
03:10You know, if you have this much time to lecture me,
03:13you could try being useful.
03:15Like signing.
03:17Kira, if I didn't agree to take care of you five years ago,
03:20I'd still be a lead astrophysicist at NAS-X.
03:29Hey.
03:30Yeah, Simon, I am free tomorrow night.
03:32Okay, yeah, I'll see you soon.
03:33Tomorrow, both of us will be free.
03:40Oh, my gosh, yeah, the photo you sent of the Northern Lights was perfect.
03:46I should have known then, but never compared to Simon.
03:50Neil, where's my breakfast?
03:51Kira, yesterday was the last meal I'd ever cook for you.
03:55I'm hungry.
03:55Hello?
03:59Hey, are you deaf or something?
04:01Kira,
04:02let's get a divorce.
04:07Kira,
04:08let's get a divorce.
04:11Whatever.
04:11Where are you, hon?
04:16I can't wait to see you.
04:19Yeah, no, no, no.
04:20I'm going to get changed, and I'll be right out, okay?
04:22Same story every time.
04:24I talk,
04:25she tunes out.
04:26Even when I'm asking for a divorce.
04:31Do you have any idea what you just signed?
04:33Yeah, some form about my medical treatment.
04:36God, I don't know why you bother me with such unimportant things, Neil.
04:40You know, you should be more like Simon.
04:42He actually knows how to treat me.
04:44And he's done more for me than you ever could.
04:47Simon's done more for you than me.
04:49Yeah.
04:50You know, when my mom died, I was a wreck.
04:53Before my mom died,
04:54she told me she was going to come back as a star to look after me.
04:57So Simon stayed up for months, stargazing,
04:59trying to find an asteroid to name after her.
05:02Simon helped me heal.
05:05What have you done for me?
05:07You think Simon was when we found that asteroid for you?
05:10Yeah.
05:11I mean, who else could have been that thoughtful?
05:13It was me.
05:16Kara, I spent night after night looking for that asteroid for you.
05:19Hey, no, no, no.
05:20I just hope that she realizes how much effort you're putting into this.
05:24She does.
05:26Hope she's worth all this.
05:27She is.
05:29You never really listen.
05:31Not to my words.
05:32Not to my heart.
05:34I always knew Simon was your first love.
05:38I knew you married me just to make him jealous.
05:41Five years I tried so hard to make you love me.
05:45I gave up my career,
05:47my dreams for you.
05:48But all I got was the cold shoulder.
05:53Turns out love can't be fabricated.
05:55Dr. James?
06:08Neil.
06:09Neil.
06:09Neil.
06:09Congratulations.
06:10Everyone here at NASX is blown away by your proposal.
06:15Now, if the data holds up, we believe this has the potential to change the world.
06:20I would feel much more confident if you could lead the mission.
06:24How do you feel about going to Mars?
06:25Kira, I shelved it.
06:29For her.
06:30Not anymore.
06:32Count me in.
06:33That's what I want to hear.
06:35Look, full transparency.
06:38You're going to be off planet for a year.
06:40No calls.
06:41No contact.
06:43Some people crack under that.
06:45Don't be an issue for me.
06:47I'll see you there.
06:48I've spent the last five years putting my life on hold for you.
07:00Starting today.
07:03I'm living for me.
07:05David?
07:05Look, I wanted to tell you in person.
07:08NASX chose me to lead the mission to Mars.
07:10I airport Kenny's space center next week to start training.
07:13And Kira's recovering fine, so she'll be okay without me.
07:16A mission to Mars, that is amazing, Neil.
07:20You know, I always knew you were headed for big things.
07:22Thanks.
07:24Um, look, Kira and I are divorced.
07:28What?
07:30Is this another one of Kira's tantrums?
07:32Look, whatever awful things she might have said to you, she didn't mean it.
07:39It was my decision to get a divorce.
07:43I understand.
07:44Neil, I am sorry I made you take care of Kira.
07:49I owe you.
07:50No, no.
07:51Look, you paid for my entire tuition to MIT.
07:56Without you, I wouldn't be here.
07:58So when you came to me, after Simon broke Kira's heart, and you asked me to marry her,
08:02I mean, how can I say no?
08:04I owe you everything.
08:05Neil, it may have started as a debt, but I know you fell in love with her.
08:10Anyone could see it.
08:11It doesn't matter now.
08:15Simon's back, and Kira chose him.
08:17So as far as I'm concerned, the contract has run its course.
08:24That's her loss.
08:26One day she is going to regret letting you walk away.
08:30Five years.
08:39There's nothing much of my things here anyway.
08:49Didn't we discuss this?
08:51Einok, you open.
08:52Five seconds max.
08:54You took 30.
08:54Now apologize for making me wait.
08:59Hey, are you deaf or something?
09:01I said apologize, or I'm going to tell Kira that you're being a fucking dick, and she won't talk to you for a week.
09:07Oh my God!
09:09Did you just push me?
09:11You know what, Neil?
09:12I'm going to tell Kira to divorce your ass.
09:16Thank God Simon's coming, and he'll show you how a real man acts.
09:18What's going on in here?
09:36I thought I heard some arguing.
09:37Kira, Kira's being such a dude.
09:40I'm giving her attitude for no reason.
09:54I mean, thank God Simon's here to show him what a real man acts like.
09:59Simon.
10:00No, you're the one I always wanted to get with my sister.
10:04I mean, you're the one she really wanted.
10:05She buys little gifts for you, travels halfway across the world just to see you, and she will not shut up about how much she misses you.
10:15I mean, just say the word, and she'll drop Neil like dead weight.
10:18Yeah, shut up.
10:20Neil, don't listen to my sister.
10:22You know she doesn't mean what she says.
10:23Yeah, Neil, it's nothing to get mad about.
10:25Oh, I'm not mad.
10:28Okay, enough small talk.
10:30Why are we standing by the door like a bunch of idiots?
10:32Simon just moved in.
10:33Let's show him around.
10:35Wait, Simon's moving in?
10:37Yeah, he's back in town looking for a new place to stay, so I figured why not let him crash here for a few nights.
10:43You don't mind, do you, Neil?
10:44No, no.
10:45Hey, Neil doesn't mind.
10:46He's very accommodating.
10:48Yeah, he's just like a glorified housekeeper.
10:51What he thinks doesn't matter.
10:53Even if I did mind, I doubt it would make a difference.
10:57Kira, Neil doesn't seem too thrilled about this.
11:00Don't worry.
11:00I'll just go back to my hotel.
11:02No, Neil, shut up.
11:04Okay, and stop acting like you deserve respect.
11:06You're the one who should be tucking your back.
11:14Okay, that's enough.
11:15Simon is staying.
11:17End of discussion.
11:17What's wrong?
11:21Oh, it's nothing.
11:24I just, it would be a shame if I walked all over your squeaky clean floor with my muddy shoes.
11:29Simon, don't worry about tracking dirt all over the house.
11:32Neil will clean it up.
11:33Actually, Neil, do you mind cleaning Simon's shoes?
11:36You want me to clean his shoes?
11:40You should be grateful to even touching a man like his shoes.
11:43Yeah, I'm not going to do that.
11:45Neil, what is going on with you?
11:47You're being incredibly rude today.
11:48Hey, guys, no need to argue over me.
11:52I'm not royalty.
11:54I can clean my own shoes, okay?
11:57Look, I'm headed out for some tennis.
11:59Kira, I'm going to our old spot.
12:01Remember?
12:02Cheyenne Park?
12:02Oh, my God.
12:05Wait, Beth, Neil, we should go.
12:07It'd be great to get some exercise in.
12:08You guys go ahead.
12:10I don't even own any tennis shoes.
12:12Seriously?
12:13Man, now I almost feel guilty.
12:16Kira, you should really get him some things.
12:19People are going to think the Thorne family's gone.
12:22It's not like I haven't gotten him anything.
12:26Neil, what happened to all that money I gave you?
12:29Your sister took it all and blew it on handbags and trips to Ibiza.
12:35Whatever.
12:35Let's just go already.
12:38Neil, if you don't have decent shoes, I can have Dad's assistant drop you off some.
12:42No?
12:43Come on, let's go get ready.
12:51So the form is all there.
12:53Just got to put a little fire into it.
12:56Why am I even here watching all this?
12:59Hey, you're going to go down and you're just going to hit it just like that.
13:04Oh, my God.
13:05Just getting used to saying yes to whatever she wants.
13:08Up there in the stands, watching me win every game.
13:12It's okay.
13:13I'm leaving in seven days.
13:15This is the last time.
13:16And you kissed me.
13:17Not bad for a first kiss story, huh?
13:19Yeah.
13:21Oh.
13:25I shouldn't have said that.
13:27You understand, right?
13:29Neil, that doesn't actually bother you, right?
13:31That was a long time ago.
13:32I mean, kind of.
13:33Not that long ago, but...
13:34Well, maybe Simon could make it up to you by helping you work on your swing?
13:37Yeah.
13:37I know your form could use some work.
13:41Oh, Kira, watch out!
13:47Oh!
13:48Neil?
13:49Ow!
13:49Neil?
13:50Kira, are you okay?
13:51Should we go to the hospital?
13:53Oh!
13:56Oh, shit!
13:57Oh, my God.
13:58Simon sprained his wrist.
13:59God, I look serious.
14:00Are you okay?
14:01I'll be fine, Kira.
14:02I was just minding my business when Neil shoved me and I landed on my wrist.
14:06It could have been way worse.
14:09Neil, what the hell is wrong with you?
14:11It's one thing not to like Simon, but to hurt him on purpose?
14:13It's just evil.
14:16Kira, we've got to get him to the hospital.
14:17If we wait, he won't hold up racket again.
14:19What, you think I did this?
14:20He was...
14:21We all saw you knock him down, Neil.
14:23His hand looks really bad.
14:24I'm going to take him to the ER.
14:25You better hope it's just his brain.
14:27And if your back hurts bad, bad.
14:28Just call yourself an Uber.
14:29Come on, Simon.
14:31Can you get us?
14:32Yeah, I'll be okay.
14:34Good job.
14:36There's only room for one man in her heart.
14:39And it's always been Simon.
14:45Man, this patient's got it good, I'll tell you.
14:47He gets a tiny scrape on his wrist,
14:49and his girlfriend books out the entire ward
14:50just to give him some peace and quiet.
14:53She's one in a million.
14:54Hot, rich, and treats him like a king.
14:56Just be careful in the shower, okay?
15:00Where the doctor said it might increase your swelling.
15:04You abandoned your injured husband
15:05so you could nurse your old flame's little wrist scratch.
15:09Neil?
15:10Yeah, I was just coming to check on you.
15:13Sure you were.
15:15Look, the maid said you didn't come home last night.
15:18Is it because of what happened with Simon?
15:19You know, you can't just go and hide
15:21when things don't go your way.
15:22I don't understand what you're so mad about anyway.
15:25We wouldn't even be in the hospital
15:26if you hadn't knocked him down.
15:27I got hurt too, you know.
15:29Are you trying to guilt trip me right now?
15:32You know, a real man wouldn't be this petty about it.
15:37Kira, do you love me?
15:41Neil, you're my husband.
15:42I would have married you if I didn't love you.
15:43Then tell me you love me.
15:45Jesus, Neil, we're in public.
15:48You know why you can't say it?
15:50Because you don't.
15:56Kira, can you help me with my towel?
15:58My wrist is hurting.
16:01You want me to?
16:04Okay, I'll see what's going on here.
16:06Can you help him go shower, huh?
16:09I thought you at least remember you have a husband.
16:12That I existed.
16:13Neil, I...
16:14No, no, it's fine.
16:15Honestly.
16:16Come on.
16:17Don't keep the man waiting.
16:19Neil, don't take it the wrong way.
16:22We grew up skinny dipping together in the ocean all the time.
16:26He's like a brother to me.
16:28Don't be mad.
16:33Oh, my darling Frank.
16:35What in the world would I do without you?
16:38I used to believe if I did everything right,
16:41you'd eventually fall in love with me.
16:42Now I know that'll never happen.
16:53Neil, it's James.
16:55Listen, we've got just ten days until liftoff,
16:58and we need you at the Space Center for training ASAP.
17:01Got it?
17:02Yes, sir.
17:04I'll be right there.
17:05Amazing.
17:05Oh, um, did you tell your wife you'll be out of contact for a year?
17:10How'd she take it?
17:12I'm divorced.
17:15Divorced?
17:16Neil, what the hell are you talking about?
17:19What's this without me knowing?
17:20Are you serious?
17:21You signed the papers yourself.
17:23What?
17:23No, I didn't.
17:24When would I have signed the papers?
17:26Oh, gosh.
17:28I hope I'm not the reason you guys are fighting.
17:31I'm so sorry.
17:31I didn't mean to cause trouble.
17:32Oh, hey, the doctor said you really can't move your wrist.
17:37Let's get you back in the bed.
17:38Neil, anything that happened between us, it's nothing.
17:42We used to shower all the time as kids, okay?
17:44It's nothing sexual.
17:45Cool.
17:47Great.
17:51I will say, your wife is a fangin' bod,
17:55and her ass fits perfectly in my hand.
17:58What the hell is wrong with you?
18:01Was injuring his hand not enough?
18:04Hey.
18:12This is it, Carol.
18:16It's time to live for myself.
18:18Welcome back.
18:26Ah, here he is, man of the hour.
18:30Tim, this is our fearless and brilliant leader, Dr. Neil Wade.
18:34He's the lead astronaut in our Tecton 7 mission to Mars.
18:38He's going to be joining us as we begin training.
18:41He's also going to be overseeing preparation procedures right before liftoff.
18:47Can't wait, sir.
18:48All right, let's go.
18:49Well done, Neil.
19:04Your fitness level and technical knowledge already rivaled the best astronauts in the country.
19:09You passed your training with flying colors, so it's set in stone then.
19:14You will be flying to Mars in a week.
19:18Sounds good to me, sir.
19:20Oh, um, since it's Christmas in a few days,
19:23we thought we'd let you spend the next few days on Earth with your families.
19:28So, uh, here you go.
19:32Happy holidays.
19:33Happy holidays, James.
19:37Ugh.
19:41Ugh.
19:48I heard you four missed calls from Kira.
19:50Well, she won.
19:54Neil?
19:55Why the fuck have you been you picked up?
19:57Kira's losing her mind trying to find you.
19:58I mean, like, literally losing her mind.
20:01Kira's looking for me.
20:10My God, Neil, you're finally home.
20:13What's the matter, Kira?
20:14You have no idea what I have been through.
20:16I have had three maids come in, and they're completely useless.
20:19Don't even get me started on the chefs, Neil.
20:21They don't understand my dietary restrictions.
20:24Everything they make is just disgusting and an edible,
20:26and I've had to fire like ten of them since you left.
20:29Oh.
20:29So that's all it was.
20:31She just couldn't find good help to replace me with.
20:33Where have you been the last few days?
20:38I've been at work, Kira.
20:40Okay.
20:41Look, you really need to quit your job as this research assistant.
20:45They pay you like nothing,
20:46and if you quit, you get some more time with me.
20:48Nothing's changed, Kira.
20:50It's still all about what you want.
20:52And if you're asking me to give up my dream,
20:54a chance to explore another planet,
20:56I'll just keep being your personal servant.
20:58Well, I won't make the same mistake again.
21:03Look, Neil, I'm really hungry.
21:07Can you please just go make some dinner?
21:09We're divorced, Kira.
21:11I'm not gonna cook you dinner.
21:12Okay, stop saying that.
21:13I know you're just saying that to scare me.
21:16Look, I know what this is about.
21:19You're mad about Simon,
21:20you're rattling off some stuff about divorce,
21:22and now you don't even want to cook for me?
21:24Look, what happened with Simon
21:26was just a one-time thing, Neil.
21:29I only put his towel on for him
21:31because he's my friend.
21:32It was a platonic favor for a friend.
21:34You and Simon can do whatever you want.
21:36I don't care anymore.
21:37Neil, he doesn't even live here anymore.
21:39Can you just get over it?
21:41You know what?
21:45What's this?
21:46A gift.
21:47I know you're mad about Simon,
21:49so I got you this to hopefully patch things up.
21:51Merry Christmas, my love.
21:53A yacht.
22:00A yacht?
22:00Yeah.
22:01Yeah, you've always said you want to sail around the world,
22:03and I thought we could take it to Hawaii next summer.
22:08Kira, I can't accept this.
22:11Why?
22:13Listen,
22:14all I'm saying is I think you should move back in with Kira.
22:17I mean, think about how lonely she'll be at Christmas
22:19if you aren't there to celebrate with her.
22:21Oh, my God.
22:22Simon,
22:23weren't you just talking about
22:24how much you love those wave speedery yachts?
22:26It's like Kira got you one for Christmas.
22:29Kira,
22:29you really went all out this year.
22:30You got me a yacht.
22:32Kira loves to splurge on gifts for you.
22:34Beth,
22:34are we sure it's not for Neil?
22:36What?
22:37Are you kidding?
22:38We've been together for like five years,
22:40and she's never even bothered to fill his stocking,
22:42let alone get him a Christmas gift.
22:44Right, Kira?
22:44A Christmas gift for me,
22:49but five years too late.
22:50I don't want your gifts anymore.
22:53Yeah,
22:53but I think that Kira got this for Simon,
22:56so...
22:57Simon,
22:58there you are.
23:02Kira,
23:02this is already the best Christmas ever.
23:06You're a good guy, Neil.
23:10Neil.
23:11Kira,
23:11I already know what we'll name it.
23:13Violet Horizons.
23:14Remember the restaurant we went to on our first date?
23:17Kira,
23:18after Christmas,
23:20I'll be out of your world for good.
23:28Hey.
23:29Uh,
23:30tonight's my family's annual Christmas party.
23:32I got this suit tailored just for you.
23:34They say, uh,
23:36Thor and Bentley party.
23:38It's your family.
23:39Not mine.
23:41What are you talking about?
23:42You're my husband.
23:44You know,
23:44my dad put you on the list himself,
23:46so it'd be rude to be a no-show.
23:48I should give David a proper goodbye.
23:51It's Christmas after all.
23:53Bye-bye,
24:06Simon.
24:06Those waist-beater yachts are worth 200 million.
24:09Kira must really love you.
24:12Yeah,
24:13that's a given.
24:14Kira loves Simon more than any woman has ever loved a man.
24:17All right,
24:17come on, Beth.
24:17Let's not joke about that anymore.
24:19Kira's still married to Neil.
24:21Don't worry about them,
24:25bud.
24:26We were just talking about how
24:26sometimes marriage and love
24:28don't always go hand in hand.
24:29Oh,
24:30you guys talk about whatever you want.
24:32Pretend I'm not here.
24:37Speaking of which,
24:38Simon,
24:39here's the one Kira loves.
24:40Not me.
24:41You should be with her.
24:44Look at yourself,
24:45Neil.
24:46Fulking,
24:47like a child,
24:48hoping that Kira feels sorry for you.
24:50A real man would try to measure up to Simon,
24:53okay?
24:53He wouldn't be throwing himself a little pity party
24:55trying to manipulate his wife and disdain.
24:58Oh,
24:58I'm not manipulating her.
25:00Kira and I are separated.
25:01Yeah,
25:02as if you'd ever have the balls to leave Kira.
25:04You should feel grateful that she ever said yes
25:07to a dirt poor,
25:08orphaned loser
25:09like you.
25:10Especially when Simon has you beat in every category.
25:14Family background,
25:15net worth,
25:16good looks,
25:17you name it.
25:18Beth just put a lid on it.
25:21It's Christmas,
25:21can you just try to be civil?
25:24Beth is just speaking facts,
25:26Kira.
25:27I mean,
25:28we all saw you and Simon during college.
25:31You guys were so cute together.
25:34I was with Kira on the day you broke up with her.
25:37She was absolutely crushed.
25:40I don't think I've ever seen someone cry so hard in my life.
25:44Well,
25:44college was a lifetime ago.
25:46What happened then doesn't even matter now.
25:48Kira,
25:49I'm trying to help you out here.
25:52I mean,
25:52sure,
25:52Simon was gone for a while,
25:55but he's back now.
25:57You don't have to hide how you feel anymore.
25:59Exactly.
26:01Kira,
26:01we all know how long you've been waiting for this.
26:04Do you remember how devastated you were
26:05when you found out that Simon had a new girlfriend?
26:08Simon,
26:09she has made it crystal clear
26:11that she wants you.
26:13Now that you're back,
26:14it's time to make a move.
26:16Screw her out on a date.
26:20Let's have a drink.
26:22All right.
26:23Cheers.
26:24Cheers.
26:24Cheers.
26:24Cheers.
26:29Look,
26:32Neil,
26:33that was just
26:33Beth and Alice
26:35trying to get a rise out of me.
26:36Please,
26:37please don't be mad.
26:40Not mad,
26:41Kira.
26:42Kira,
26:42every time they humiliated me in the past,
26:45they never once came to my defense.
26:47Was it because deep down
26:49you agreed with them?
26:50Look,
26:50Kira,
26:50be honest.
26:52You've never taken me seriously
26:53as a husband.
26:55You've never seen me as an equal.
26:57But,
26:58Neil,
26:58Neil.
27:03No,
27:04Neil,
27:04listen,
27:04I...
27:05Merry Christmas,
27:08old friend.
27:10Oh,
27:10thank you,
27:11Neil.
27:11Yeah.
27:12So you're really
27:14planning to end things
27:15with Kira then?
27:18Yeah.
27:19I think it's time
27:20to start focusing on the future.
27:22This is the best
27:23for both of us.
27:24You know,
27:24I don't blame you.
27:25She's a handful
27:26to put up with.
27:27Oh.
27:28Put me through college.
27:30It's a fair trade
27:31if you ask me.
27:38Don't be ridiculous,
27:39Neil.
27:40All I did was pay your tuition.
27:42You sacrificed
27:42five years
27:43of your life.
27:45Not only that,
27:46you went above
27:46and beyond the terms
27:47and beyond the terms
27:47of the contract.
27:49You loved Kira
27:50with all of your heart.
27:52I hoped
27:52that with time
27:53she would see
27:54your devotion.
27:56Regardless,
27:58Neil,
27:59you're my son
28:00forever.
28:01No.
28:02come on.
28:13Come on.
28:16You know,
28:17Simon got one thing
28:18right.
28:19Sometimes
28:19living marriage
28:20don't always go
28:20hand in hand.
28:23I did love
28:24Kira.
28:26I cared for her.
28:27But she didn't feel
28:31the same way.
28:34That's all there is
28:35to it.
28:35And, uh,
28:38listen,
28:39I have one more
28:39favor to ask you.
28:41Tell me.
28:42Anything.
28:43Well, as you know,
28:43I'm headed to Mars
28:44soon.
28:45And, um,
28:47I don't want Kira
28:48to know where I am.
28:49And I don't want her
28:50to know about
28:51the contract.
28:52Could you keep
28:53those two secrets
28:54for me, please?
28:55Neil,
28:55you haven't told
28:56Kira about Mars
28:57nor the contract.
28:59We were together
29:00for five years.
29:01I don't want her
29:02to know that
29:02every moment of that
29:03was just some
29:03contract with her dad.
29:05I mean,
29:05I can't do that
29:06to her.
29:08Look,
29:09I gotta get going
29:09soon, so
29:10it'll be the last
29:12time you see me.
29:14You know.
29:16Neil,
29:17you're leaving?
29:20Neil,
29:21I swear,
29:22something is
29:22off with you today.
29:24Look,
29:24if you're leaving,
29:25I mean,
29:26that's fine,
29:26but can you at least
29:27tell me where you're going?
29:28Uh, honey,
29:29a representative
29:30from the Atlas group
29:31is delivering
29:32a Christmas present
29:33to the office later.
29:34Neil's heading over
29:35to receive it
29:36on my behalf.
29:37Oh.
29:40Okay,
29:40that's a relief.
29:42Uh,
29:43Dad,
29:43do you want to come
29:43for the turkey?
29:45The party's waiting
29:45on you
29:46and everyone
29:46is starving.
29:47I think I had
29:49a little bit
29:49too much to drink.
29:50I need to go
29:51lay down for a bit.
29:52You take care
29:53of it for me,
29:53okay?
29:55Yeah,
29:56of course.
30:03You want to
30:03come cut a turkey
30:04with me?
30:06I don't think
30:07that's a good idea.
30:09You're friends
30:09with me
30:10and quite clear
30:10I'm not welcome here.
30:13So I think
30:13you and Simon
30:14should go cut the turkey
30:15because I think
30:16that's what you
30:17really want.
30:18Cutting the turkey
30:19is a family tradition,
30:21Neil.
30:21Why would I do
30:21that with Simon?
30:23Oh,
30:24I get it.
30:25You're still jealous,
30:28aren't you?
30:30Neil,
30:30I promise
30:31to never do that again.
30:34I'm going to
30:34put you first.
30:35I'm going to treat you
30:36the way a wife
30:37should treat her husband.
30:38Oh,
30:39Kira,
30:40we're past
30:41the point of
30:41empty promises.
30:44I'm not jealous,
30:45Kira.
30:46I just think
30:47somebody else
30:47should cut the turkey,
30:48okay?
30:50All right.
30:52Um,
30:53well,
30:53I'll go cut the turkey
30:55grab a quick bite
30:56and then we can
30:56head home.
30:57Yeah,
30:58just meet me back
30:59here in 30 minutes.
31:02Okay?

31:12couple looks like
31:13right there.

31:20take a photo of them

33:15photo mr party pooper beth give it a rest give what a rest he's the one who's acting bitter
33:22i guess neil's just butt hurt because he realized if simon hadn't gone back to europe all those
33:26years ago she would have married him instead i mean what the hell did you think this all was
33:32you're just kira's emotional support animal that she adopted when she was feeling down
33:37best shut the fuck up no lies detected beth neil is a grimy outcast orphan that nobody wants
33:45i mean he was probably a fucking bomb until kira letterman now that simon's back it's time for
33:52neil to take his rightful place on the streets and stop changing the foreign family name
34:06oh my god neil neil hey are you okay okay we gotta get you to a hospital right now what is wrong

36:11shit about you okay you're bleeding from your forehead and she still chose simon neil there's

36:23it's about time you stop moping around and get a divorce divorce we are divorced
36:39kira got these painkillers from walgreens and told me to bring them to you
36:44i don't know what the hell's gone into her i mean simon was getting a shot in his elbow and she just ran
36:48right out but whatever here you go i don't need them
36:57what's that all about pulling a disappearing act and hopes that kira actually starts missing you i told
37:01you we've got a divorce why would i stay at my ex-wife's house you don't actually expect me to buy
37:06that do you you follow kira around like a lost puppy you wouldn't just up and divorce her no this is
37:13your pathetic attempt at pulling back her attention because simon's come home look if you don't believe
37:19me the divorce papers right over there take a look for yourself
