00:00Is that the reason you guys are fighting?

00:02I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to cause trouble.

00:04Oh, hey.

00:06The doctor said you really can't move your wrist.

00:08Let's get you back into bed.

00:10Neil, anything that happened between us, it's nothing.

00:13We used to shower all the time as kids, okay?

00:15It's nothing sexual.

00:17Cool.

00:18Great.

00:23I will say, your wife has a banging bod,

00:26and her ass fits perfectly in my hand.

00:29What the hell is wrong with you?

00:32Was injuring his hand not enough?

00:34Hey.

00:44This is it, Kira.

00:47It's time to live for myself.

00:52Welcome back.

00:54Ah, here he is, man of the hour.

01:01Tim, this is our fearless and brilliant leader, Dr. Neil Waite.

01:05He's the lead astronaut in our Tecton 7 mission to Mars.

01:08He's going to be joining us as we begin training.

01:11He's also going to be overseeing preparation procedures right before liftoff.

01:18Can't wait, sir.

01:19All right, let's go.

01:34Well done, Neil.

01:35Your fitness level and technical knowledge already rival the best astronauts in the country.

01:40You passed your training with flying colors, so it's set in stone then.

01:45You will be flying to Mars in a week.

01:49Sounds good to me, sir.

01:50Oh, since it's Christmas in a few days, we thought we'd let you spend the next few days on Earth with your families.

01:58So, uh, here you go.

02:03Happy holidays.

02:04Happy holidays, James.

02:05Huh.

02:1834 missed calls from Kira.

02:20What does she want?

02:24Neil?

02:25Why the fuck have you been you picked up?

02:27Kira's losing her mind trying to find you.

02:29I mean, like, literally losing her mind.

02:34Kira's looking for me?

02:41Oh, my God.

02:42Neil, you're finally home.

02:44What's the matter, Kira?

02:45You have no idea what I have been through.

02:47I have had three maids come in, and they're completely useless.

02:50Don't even get me started on the chefs, Neil.

02:52They don't understand my dietary restrictions.

02:54Everything they make is just disgusting and an edible,

02:57and I've had to fire like ten of them since you left.

03:00Oh.

03:01So that's all it was.

03:02She just couldn't find good help to replace me with.

03:07Where have you been the last few days?

03:10I've been at work, Kira.

03:12Okay.

03:13Look, you really need to quit your job as this research assistant.

03:16They pay you like nothing, and if you quit, you could spend more time with me.

03:20Nothing's changed, Kira.

03:21It's still all about what you want.

03:23And if you're asking me to give up my dream, a chance to explore another planet,

03:27all just to keep being your personal servant,

03:30well, I won't make the same mistake again.

03:36Look, Neil, I'm really hungry.

03:37Can you please just go make some dinner?

03:39We're divorced, Kira.

03:40I'm not gonna cook you dinner.

03:41Okay, stop saying that.

03:42I know you're just saying that to scare me.

03:44Look, I know what this is about.

03:47You're mad about Simon, you're rattling off some stuff about divorce,

03:51and now you don't even want to cook for me?

03:53Look, what happened with Simon was just a one-time thing, Neil.

03:58I only put his towel on for him because he's my friend.

04:01It was a platonic favor for a friend.

04:03You and Simon can do whatever you want.

04:05I don't care anymore.

04:06Neil, he doesn't even live here anymore.

04:08Can you just get over it?

04:09You know what?

04:15What's this?

04:16A gift.

04:17I know you're mad about Simon,

04:18so I got you this to hopefully patch things up.

04:21Merry Christmas, my love.

04:29A yacht?

04:30Yeah.

04:31Yeah, you've always said you want to sail around the world,

04:32and I thought we could take it to Hawaii next summer.

04:34Kira, I can't accept this.

04:39Why?

04:41Look, all I'm saying is I think you should move back in with Kira.

04:46I mean, think about how lonely she'll be at Christmas

04:48if you aren't there to celebrate with her.

04:50Oh, my God.

04:51Simon, weren't you just talking about how much you love those wave speeder yachts?

04:55Looks like Kira got you one for Christmas.

04:57Kira, you really went all out this year.

04:59You got me a yacht.

05:00Kira loves to splurge on gifts for you.

05:03Beth, are we sure it's not for Neil?

05:05What?

05:06Are you kidding?

05:07They've been together for like five years,

05:09and she's never even bothered to fill his stocking,

05:11let alone get him a Christmas gift.

05:13Right, Kira?

05:15A Christmas gift for me,

05:17but five years too late.

05:19I don't want your gifts anymore.

05:21Yeah, Beth.

05:22I think that Kira got this for Simon, so...

05:25Simon.

05:27There you are.

05:28Kira, this is already the best Christmas ever.

05:34You're a good guy, Neil.

05:38Neil.

05:39Kira, I already know what we'll name it.

05:41Violet Horizons.

05:42Remember the restaurant we went to on our first date?

05:45Kira, after Christmas,

05:48I'll be out of your world for good.

05:57Hey.

05:58Uh, tonight's my family's annual Christmas party.

06:01I got this suit tailored just for you.

06:04It's a, uh, Thor and Henley party.

06:07It's your family.

06:08Not mine.

06:10What are you talking about?

06:11You're my husband.

06:13Plus, you know, my dad put you on the list himself,

06:15so it'd be rude to be a no-show.

06:17I should give David a proper goodbye.

06:20It's Christmas after all.

06:22My, my, Simon.

06:35Those waist-beater yachts are worth 200 million.

06:38Kira must really love you.

06:41Yeah, that's a given.

06:42Kira loves Simon more than any woman has ever loved a man.

06:45Alright, come on Beth, let's not joke about that anymore.

06:48Kira's still married to Neil.

06:52Don't worry about them, bud.

06:54We were just talking about how sometimes marriage and love

06:56don't always go hand in hand.

06:58Oh, you guys talk about whatever you want.

07:00Pretend I'm not here.

07:05Speaking of which, Simon,

07:07you're the one Kira loves.

07:09Not me.

07:10You should be with her.

07:12Look at yourself, Neil.

07:13Vulking like a child, hoping that Kira feels sorry for you.

07:17A real man would try to measure up to Simon, okay?

07:20He wouldn't be throwing himself a little pity party trying to manipulate his wife into staying.

07:24Oh, I'm not manipulating her.

07:26Kira and I are separated.

07:28Yeah, as if you'd ever have the balls to leave Kira.

07:31You should feel grateful that she ever said yes to a dirt poor orphaned loser like you.

07:37Especially when Simon has you beat in every category.

07:40Family background, net worth, good looks, you name it.

07:45Beth just put a lid on it.

07:48It's Christmas.

07:49Can you just try to be civil?

07:51Beth is just speaking facts, Kira.

07:54I mean, we all saw you and Simon during college.

07:58You guys were so cute together.

08:01I was with Kira on the day you broke up with her.

08:04She was absolutely crushed.

08:07I don't think I've ever seen someone cry so hard in my life.

08:11Well, college was a lifetime ago.

08:13What happened then doesn't even matter now.

08:15Kira, I'm trying to help you out here.

08:19I mean, sure, Simon was gone for a while, but he's back now.

08:24You don't have to hide how you feel anymore.

08:26Exactly.

08:27Kira, we all know how long you've been waiting for this.

08:30Do you remember how devastated you were when you found out that Simon had a new girlfriend?

08:35Simon, she has made it crystal clear that she wants you.

08:40Now that you're back, it's time to make a move.

08:43Ask her out on a date.

08:47Let's have a drink.

08:49Alright.

08:50Cheers.

08:56Look, Neil, that was just Beth and Alice trying to get a rise out of me.

09:03Please, please don't be mad.

09:06I'm not mad, Kira.

09:09Kira, every time they humiliated me in the past, they never once came to my defense.

09:14Was it because deep down you agree with them?

09:17Look, Kira, be honest.

09:19You've never taken me seriously as a husband.

09:22You've never seen me as an equal.

09:24But Neil...

09:25No, Neil, listen, I...

09:30Merry Christmas, old friend.

09:34Oh, thank you, Neil.

09:36Yeah.

09:37So you're really planning to end things with Kira then?

09:41Yeah.

09:42I think it's time to start focusing on the future.

09:46This is the best for both of us.

09:48You know, I don't blame you.

09:49She's a handful to put up with.

09:51Oh.

09:52Put me through college.

09:54It's a fair trade if you ask me.

09:58Don't be ridiculous, Neil.

10:04All I did was pay your tuition.

10:06You sacrificed five years of your life.

10:09Not only that, you went above and beyond the terms of the contract.

10:13You loved Kira with all of your heart.

10:16I hoped that with time, she would see your devotion.

10:20Regardless, Neil, you're my son.

10:24Forever.

10:25Forever.

10:26No.

10:27Come on.

10:28You know, Simon got one thing right.

10:31Sometimes love and marriage don't always go hand in hand.

10:46I did love Kira.

10:49I cared for her.

10:51But she didn't feel the same way.

10:56That's all there is to it.
