00:02:40Hold on.
00:02:41I can't hear you.
00:02:42Okay.
00:02:43That's better.
00:02:44Where are you guys?
00:02:46No, I don't know.
00:02:47I don't know where that is.
00:02:49I don't have GPS on this phone.
00:02:52Can you just give me directions from here?
00:02:56Hello?
00:02:56Hello?
00:02:59Shit.
00:03:01Come on.
00:03:04You okay?
00:03:06Yeah, I'm just...
00:03:09Couldn't help but...
00:03:10Yeah, no, no, I'm fine.
00:03:11I just...
00:03:12I lost my friends.
00:03:14And I have no reception, so...
00:03:16Where are you headed?
00:03:20Um...
00:03:20Long Quai...
00:03:21Long Quai Phong.
00:03:22Yeah.
00:03:23You need directions?
00:03:24Yeah, that'd be great.
00:03:25I don't have GPS on my phone.
00:03:26Yeah, it hurts.
00:03:27So, it's easy.
00:03:28You just walk down these stairs here.
00:03:30Okay.
00:03:30Take a ride down Elgin.
00:03:32Okay.
00:03:33And you go until you hit the escalators.
00:03:34Escalators.
00:03:35Yeah.
00:03:35The mid-level escalators.
00:03:36Okay.
00:03:37What building?
00:03:39No, they're outside.
00:03:42Oh, like in the middle of the street?
00:03:44Yeah.
00:03:44It's one of Hong Kong's most famous sites.
00:03:47The mid-level escalators.
00:03:48It's in all the guidebooks.
00:03:50Oh.
00:03:50The mid-level escalators.
00:03:51Yeah, okay.
00:03:52Okay, so you go up two blocks.
00:03:54You take a ride on Hollywood.
00:03:55You know, I think I'm just gonna...
00:03:56I'll just ask someone when I get off the escalators.
00:03:59Are you sure?
00:04:00Thanks.
00:04:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:04:01I mean, I can...
00:04:03I can walk you there.
00:04:06Mmm, no.
00:04:09Thanks, though.
00:04:10Yeah?
00:04:10Yeah.
00:04:11Okay.
00:04:12Down to the right.
00:04:38You lost already?
00:04:40Yeah, you know, it's...
00:04:41It's just pretty confusing down there.
00:04:44But my offer still stands.
00:04:54Are you sure I'm not taking you away from anything?
00:04:56I don't wanna...
00:04:56It's fine.
00:04:57It's a big birthday party.
00:04:58I doubt anyone will miss me for five minutes.
00:05:01Let me just...
00:05:02text somebody.
00:05:07Okay.
00:05:09Good to go.
00:05:09I really appreciate it.
00:05:11Thank you so much.
00:05:13Don't miss you.
00:05:26I'm Ruby, by the way.
00:05:28Nice to meet you, Ruby, by the way.
00:05:30I'm Josh.
00:05:31Hey.
00:05:33First time in Hong Kong?
00:05:34Uh, yes it is.
00:05:35I'm guessing it's not yours.
00:05:37No, I live here.
00:05:39Where are you from?
00:05:40California.
00:05:41Oh, cool.
00:05:42San Francisco?
00:05:43Nope.
00:05:43LA.
00:05:44Oh.
00:05:46And where are you from?
00:05:47New York.
00:05:48Oh.
00:05:49What?
00:05:50Nothing.
00:05:51It's just so cliché for New Yorkers to hit on LA.
00:05:55So have you ever been?
00:05:57Nah, I never saw the need.
00:05:59What?
00:05:59You got something against nice weather?
00:06:01See, there's something very wrong with your city
00:06:03when the only good thing you have going for it is the weather.
00:06:06Okay, that's not the only nice thing.
00:06:08Yeah, I guess.
00:06:10If you like earthquakes.
00:06:15So this is Soho.
00:06:16Just like New York.
00:06:18And London.
00:06:19Buenos Aires.
00:06:20Apparently you're not a major city unless you have a Soho.
00:06:22What does this Soho stand for?
00:06:24South of Hollywood.
00:06:26I wonder why LA hasn't jumped on that bandwagon.
00:06:28Don't even start.
00:06:32So what brings you to Hong Kong?
00:06:34Work.
00:06:35What do you do?
00:06:36I design toys.
00:06:37That's cool.
00:06:39What kind?
00:06:40Have you ever seen those stuffed animals that sing and dance?
00:06:43My niece is obsessed with this one toy.
00:06:45It's a beaver.
00:06:46Justin Beaver.
00:06:47Justin.
00:06:48Yeah.
00:06:48Oh my.
00:06:49I designed that.
00:06:50What?
00:06:51Yep.
00:06:51Really?
00:06:52Yeah.
00:06:52That's pretty cool.
00:06:54Thanks.
00:06:54You're obsessed with one toy and you designed it.
00:06:56Apparently.
00:06:57Hey.
00:06:58What else you got?
00:06:59Um, let's see.
00:07:00I have movies like Jagger.
00:07:02It's a cow.
00:07:03Ha!
00:07:04Lady Baba.
00:07:05A sheep?
00:07:06Mm-hmm.
00:07:07Where can I get one of these?
00:07:08Um, I don't know.
00:07:09If I see you next time, I'll just get you one.
00:07:10Are you planning on getting lost around here in the near future?
00:07:13Well, now I know who you're called.
00:07:14You don't even know if I'm taking you to the right place.
00:07:16Yeah.
00:07:17My mother did warn me about talking to random strangers in a foreign city.
00:07:23Such oddly specific advice.
00:07:25She's like that.
00:07:26She's like a fortune cookie.
00:07:36So these are the famous mid-level escorters.
00:07:39You ready for the ride of your life?
00:07:41Let's do it.
00:07:53Technology strikes again.
00:07:55What do you mean?
00:07:56They're on a date and they're just on their phones.
00:07:59Yeah, well maybe they've been going out for a long time and they just ran out of things
00:08:02to say to each other.
00:08:03No way.
00:08:04They're on their third date at least.
00:08:06How do you know?
00:08:08The way they're dressed.
00:08:09I'm sorry.
00:08:09What are you talking about?
00:08:11What were you saying?
00:08:18Oh wait.
00:08:19So actually I make a left here.
00:08:21Yeah.
00:08:21We go down here and then we go down Pugh.
00:08:23Okay.
00:08:25But you know what?
00:08:25I'm going to be okay.
00:08:27I don't want to take up any more time.
00:08:30Yeah, I guess I should get back.
00:08:33Cool.
00:08:33Nice to meet you.
00:08:35Yeah, it was nice to meet you too.
00:08:37Thanks very much.
00:08:41Bye.
00:08:41Bye.
00:08:42Bye.
00:08:49Hey, you know what?
00:08:51Another ten minutes, it's not going to hurt.
00:08:53Really?
00:08:53Yeah, I should make sure you get that.
00:08:55What a gentleman.
00:08:56No, I just don't want to be accused of anything in case you go missing.
00:09:00Wow, that was really creepy.
00:09:02I'm sorry.
00:09:02So creepy.
00:09:03Sorry.
00:09:03I take it too far.
00:09:15So, what do you do here in Hong Kong?
00:09:18Nothing as exciting as designing toys, that's for sure.
00:09:21Come on.
00:09:22What do you do?
00:09:22I don't want to bore you.
00:09:24Alright, I'll guess then.
00:09:26You're an expat in Hong Kong, so I'm thinking trust fund baby?
00:09:30What?
00:09:31Jesus, no.
00:09:32Alright, so you're in finance.
00:09:34I know we're not the most popular people in the world right now.
00:09:36Oh, I feel so sorry for you.
00:09:38Trust me.
00:09:39I'd rather be doing something creative like you.
00:09:41Like what?
00:09:43Like writing, actually.
00:09:45Oh, what did you study in college?
00:09:47I was a double major.
00:09:48I studied business and English Lit.
00:09:52So what happened?
00:09:53I guess my practical side won out.
00:09:56I got my MBA.
00:09:57But now, whenever anybody asks me what I do for a living, I feel the need to follow it up
00:10:01with.
00:10:02But I did study literature in college.
00:10:04Yeah, I get that.
00:10:05It's not like I went to school to design toys.
00:10:08How did you become a toy designer?
00:10:09Well, out of design school, I thought I was going to be the next Farrah Wang.
00:10:13But I quickly realized that it is much easier finding a job designing toys.
00:10:18Still want to do something with fashion?
00:10:19Oh yeah, definitely.
00:10:20You know, but instead of designing my own label, I think I'd love to own my own boutique and be
00:10:26able to curate all my own pieces.
00:10:27You've got pretty good style.
00:10:29What's up in here?
00:10:30Thanks.
00:10:31Student loans, rent, the need to eat on a regular basis.
00:10:37Eating is highly overrated.
00:10:39Coming from a guy who probably has caviar for breakfast.
00:10:42No, I have cocaine for breakfast.
00:10:44Caviar is like a late afternoon snack.
00:10:49So, do you still write it on the side?
00:10:52I'm working on a novel.
00:10:54Oh, you're a novelist.
00:10:55I think you have to finish the book before you call yourself a novelist, but kind of.
00:11:00What's it called?
00:11:02You really want to know?
00:11:03I just keep asking you questions because I love hearing the sound of my own voice.
00:11:07It's kind of sassy, you know that?
00:11:17So?
00:11:19It's, uh, it's called living on Hong Kong time.
00:11:24You mean living on jet lag time?
00:11:28I had this boss when I was living in New York and he said, uh, let's hustle people, it's already
00:11:33tomorrow in Hong Kong.
00:11:35And that phrase, that phrase, like, really stuck with me because it's so fast paced here.
00:11:40It really is already tomorrow.
00:11:43Guess what?
00:11:44Hmm?
00:11:45It's still yesterday in L.A.
00:11:48It's funny.
00:11:49It's probably very true, too.
00:11:51I think if you gave it a solid chance, you'd really like it there.
00:11:55Yeah, I hear the weather's amazing.
00:11:57So what's it about?
00:11:58It's a far-fetched story about an American expat living in Hong Kong and all his misadventures.
00:12:04Hmm.
00:12:06I've always been intrigued with expats.
00:12:08Yeah?
00:12:09Yeah.
00:12:09I mean, they always gave the impression that living abroad is so glamorous, but when my grandparents immigrated to the
00:12:15States from Hong Kong, their journey was anything but glamorous.
00:12:20And what makes them immigrants and new expats?
00:12:25Well, I guess expats are living abroad temporarily and an immigrant is there to stay.
00:12:31Okay.
00:12:32So how long have you been in Hong Kong?
00:12:35Ten years.
00:12:36Hmm.
00:12:36Do you have any plans to move back to New York anytime soon?
00:12:40Nope.
00:12:40Okay.
00:12:41So, a white investment banker living abroad is an expat, and a Chinese restaurant worker living in Arcadia is an
00:12:50immigrant?
00:12:50I guess I never really thought about it that way.
00:12:53Yeah.
00:12:54It's just kind of ironic that, like, my grandparents worked so hard to give us a better life in the
00:13:00States, and yet, here we are.
00:13:02We're all just flocking back to Asia.
00:13:04It's like most of my friends here.
00:13:06It's the Far East Movement.
00:13:12This is really pretty.
00:13:13Yeah, so these are, like, the last four remaining gas lamps in the city.
00:13:18Yeah, cool.
00:13:19Mm-hmm.
00:13:20This is for Starbucks in Hong Kong.
00:13:23Try that.
00:13:24Ready?
00:13:25Let's try.
00:13:25Let's try.
00:13:26So you guys are going to take a photo for you?
00:13:29Yeah, that'd be so great.
00:13:30Thanks so much.
00:13:31Yeah, no worries.
00:13:33Okay.

00:13:38Thanks again then.

00:25:39What are you doing here?
00:25:41I'm just picking up some clothes in Kowloon.
00:25:44What are you doing in Hong Kong?
00:25:47I actually live here now.
00:25:50Really?
00:25:51Yeah.
00:25:53Wow.
00:25:53Yeah, I got a promotion.
00:25:56Well, congrats.
00:25:58Yeah, the trade-off was I had to come live here for a year, so here I am.
00:26:03I can't believe you live here in Hong Kong?
00:26:06I'm sorry.
00:26:07Should I have notified you first?
00:26:08Yeah, I thought the next time we were going to see so that you were going to give me a
00:26:11Lady Baba.
00:26:12Oh, God.
00:26:12I really hope you weren't holding your breath since last year.
00:26:18You know, I should apologize about last year.
00:26:22About...
00:26:22Oh, don't even...
00:26:24Don't even worry about it.
00:26:24It was...
00:26:25It's fine.
00:26:26It's not a big deal.
00:26:27No, I was...
00:26:28I was kind of a jerk.
00:26:29Yes, you were.
00:26:30Big jerk.
00:26:33All right.
00:26:34All right.
00:26:36God, I have to know, how mad was your girlfriend when you finally showed up to that part?
00:26:40I mean...
00:26:41Yeah.
00:26:42Well, she wasn't happy.
00:26:43That's for sure.
00:26:44Yeah, I bet.
00:26:46And did you guys work things out?
00:26:49Are you asking if we're still together?
00:26:50Nah, why don't we just hang out for a couple of hours and then you can just surprise me later.
00:26:55It's more dramatic that way.
00:26:56Yeah, fair enough.
00:26:57I deserve that.
00:26:57I deserve that.
00:26:58Yes, yes.
00:26:59We're still together.
00:27:00Oh, good for you.
00:27:02Good for you.
00:27:10So, how about you?
00:27:12Are you seeing anyone?
00:27:13Yeah.
00:27:13I am.
00:27:14I am.
00:27:15What?
00:27:17You let me ride the ferry with you this whole time.
00:27:20You didn't mention, not once, that you had a boyfriend?
00:27:22Yeah, I guess we're even, though.
00:27:26Did you meet him here?
00:27:27No, no.
00:27:28Back in L.A.
00:27:28Oh.
00:27:29Yeah, he's in L.A.
00:27:30So it's long distance now.
00:27:31Yeah, it is.
00:27:32Well, you know, I'm only doing this for a year, so...
00:27:35Figured if we can weather this, we can weather anything.
00:27:40I'm sorry, I can't believe I never ride the ferry.
00:27:44This is crazy.
00:27:45Yeah, this is weird.
00:27:46It's weird, right?
00:27:47It's weird.
00:27:48It's weird.
00:27:48I'd never go to Kattloon.
00:28:00So it was really good running into you.
00:28:02Yeah.
00:28:02I'm like, really glad we got to catch up.
00:28:06Definitely.
00:28:08So...
00:28:10Where are you off to now?
00:28:11I'm taking a close.
00:28:12Oh, right, right.
00:28:14Where?
00:28:15Chungking Mansion.
00:28:16You need me to come with you?
00:28:19No, I think I can handle it.
00:28:21You sure?
00:28:21Yeah, yep.
00:28:22Got GPS now.
00:28:23No, I mean, that's a sketchy area.
00:28:26Really?
00:28:27Look, I think your boyfriend would want me to go with you.
00:28:30Uh-huh.
00:28:30No.
00:28:30I'd be doing it on the solid.
00:28:32Mining the perimeter and shit.
00:28:38Okay.
00:28:39Whatever.
00:28:41I'd be messed.
00:28:43It's this way.
00:28:44Yeah.
00:28:45That's...
00:28:45I just thought I'd drop something back there.
00:28:48Yeah, no.
00:28:48Totally.
00:29:08I want to sing you a song about me and you went to Kowloon Thong.
00:29:16We have to be very strong.
00:29:19If we want to do something very wrong.
00:29:31Well, we don't get you to take out one.
00:29:39See a guy?
00:29:42Huh?
00:29:43That guy.
00:29:44That bleeding guy.
00:29:45What are you talking about?
00:29:48Are you sure we're in the right place?
00:29:49Because most of these tailor shops are on the ground floor.
00:29:51Yeah.
00:29:51Yeah, we're right here.
00:29:59Um, sorry. I'm here to pick up a suit.
00:30:06Really didn't see that guy?
00:30:12Okay.
00:30:21I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here.
00:30:26Next week, I'm here.
00:30:28So this is a soup fort.
00:30:32Are we picking up a soup for your boy?
00:30:34You said you wanted him to come.
00:30:35What's his name?
00:30:36Suit No Ready.
00:30:37Wait, what?
00:30:38Suit No Ready next week.
00:30:40No, no, no. I called this morning and you said it'd be done today.
00:30:42Sorry, Suit No Ready. Next week, come back?
00:30:44No, no, no. This is not right.
00:30:55What?
00:31:01Okay.
00:31:01Okay.
00:31:05Your suit will be ready this weekend, and you're getting a 15% discount.
00:31:09What?
00:31:15Okay.
00:31:16What was that?
00:31:17What?
00:31:18That was amazing.
00:31:20Wait, I didn't know you could speak Cantonese so well.
00:31:22I told you I'd come in handy.
00:31:24It's so weird watching you speak Chinese.
00:31:27It's weird watching you speak English.
00:31:29Whatever, that's different.
00:31:30How is it different?
00:31:31It's different because I grew up in the States.
00:31:33Why I spent the last 10 years of my life here?
00:31:35Still weird.
00:31:37No, only because I don't speak any Chinese.
00:31:39Yeah.
00:31:40Well, if it makes you feel any better, I don't speak a lick of Yiddish.
00:31:43My grandmother thinks that's Meshugana.
00:31:45What does that mean?
00:31:47I have no idea.
00:31:52Okay.
00:31:55Okay.
00:31:55Well, I should probably get going.
00:31:57But thank you.
00:31:57All right.
00:31:59Thanks.
00:31:59Hey, I got to be at this thing a few hours, but I got some time to kill.
00:32:06Oh, no.
00:32:07You don't even know what I was going to say.
00:32:09Um, yeah.
00:32:10It started to sound eerily familiar.
00:32:13One drink.
00:32:16Total equal time.
00:32:24Okay.
00:32:25Fine.
00:32:25Fine.
00:32:26But only because you got my boyfriend a discount.
00:32:30That's all it takes?
00:32:31My boyfriend.
00:32:32Yeah.
00:32:35Really good discount.
00:32:47I mean, look at this here.
00:32:50Is this where you take all the ladies?
00:32:52When I'm not haggling for their boyfriend's menswear, yes, yes.
00:32:55This is where I take the ladies.
00:32:58God, I'm super swanky.
00:32:59Don't worry.
00:33:00I'll pay for it.
00:33:01Using the good old expense account?
00:33:03I wish.
00:33:04You know, technically it's okay because I'm now officially a customer of HSBC, so you can
00:33:08totally write it off.
00:33:09Well, I don't have an expense account.
00:33:12I quit my job.
00:33:14What?
00:33:14Yeah.
00:33:17When?
00:33:18Right after I met this sassy girl from L.A.
00:33:21No, you actually took me seriously?
00:33:23I'm a popper now because of you.
00:33:25And you're making me feel bad?
00:33:28Want a drink?
00:33:28Yeah.
00:33:29Hi.
00:33:30What can I get for you?
00:33:31I'll take a glass of rosé, please.
00:33:33Vodka Red Bull?
00:33:34Can I have a credit card?
00:33:36Oh, yeah.
00:33:37Oh, no.
00:33:37Here, you know what?
00:33:37Here, I'll get it.
00:33:38No, seriously.
00:33:39No, no, no, no, no.
00:33:39No, it's my drink.
00:33:40No, you got it last time.
00:33:44That's a first.
00:33:45A girl buying me a drink in Hong Kong.
00:33:49So you don't have an office anymore?
00:33:50That's weird.
00:33:51No, no.
00:33:51Don't have an office.
00:33:52Don't have a secretary.
00:33:53Just work at home.
00:33:55Cheers to that.
00:33:56Cheers to this.
00:33:58Even though I only said one drink.
00:34:02But I'm just trying my best to treat it like a day job, you know?
00:34:06What do you mean?
00:34:07Like I clock in at the same time every day.
00:34:10You know, I put the hours in.
00:34:11Good.
00:34:13And do you ever get writer's block?
00:34:16I read somewhere that if you block, that just means you're writing about the wrong things.
00:34:19Okay.
00:34:20Looks like someone's been Googling quotes about writer's block instead of actually writing.
00:34:26Busted.
00:34:27I mean, who knows what will happen.
00:34:29How many unpublished books are out there just waiting to be ignored.
00:34:32Don't do that.
00:34:34Don't do that.
00:34:35What?
00:34:35You should be proud of yourself.
00:34:36You took a chance.
00:34:37And you went for it.
00:34:39You know?
00:34:39You're never going to have to look back and wonder what if.
00:34:44Thanks.
00:34:49You know, I always knew we'd be great friends someday.
00:34:52Don't get too ahead of yourself.
00:34:54See how the rest of the night pans out first.
00:34:56No way.
00:34:57I'm not taking that risk.
00:34:59What are you doing?
00:35:00I'm Facebooking you.
00:35:01No.
00:35:01What is your last name?
00:35:05What is it?
00:35:07It's Lynn.
00:35:09Ruby Lynn.
00:35:09Yes, it is.
00:35:10I like that.
00:35:12Lynn.
00:35:15Okay.
00:35:16Is that you?
00:35:18Yep.
00:35:21Cute pic.
00:35:32Facebook friend request from Joshua Rosenberg.
00:35:36Your last name is Rosenberg?
00:35:38It is.
00:35:40Could you be any more Jewish?
00:35:42Could you be any more racist?
00:35:44I'm just joshing you.
00:35:45No.
00:35:46Okay.
00:35:46We're not going to say that joke again.
00:35:48That's an awful joke.
00:35:49I've been waiting all night to say that.
00:35:50That's an...
00:35:52This is the part where you hit the accept button.
00:35:55I don't know about that.
00:35:56I just don't know if our relationship is ready to be taken to the next level yet.
00:36:01Okay.
00:36:01This is the part where you hit the button.
00:36:02You just hit the button.
00:36:04I'm going to think about it.
00:36:05What?
00:36:05Really?
00:36:06Yeah.
00:36:07Really.
00:36:07Excuse me.
00:36:09This lady's room.
00:36:17It's so cold.
00:37:02Ready to go?
00:37:03Yeah.
00:37:03Can't wait to stalk you on Facebook later.
00:37:05Stalking is okay.
00:37:07Poking is not allowed.
00:37:26Look at the skyline.
00:37:28They go all in on the light show.
00:37:31It's easy to see why people fall in love with it.
00:37:34Yeah.
00:37:37But?
00:37:40I just don't think that I'm in love with it yet.
00:37:43No?
00:37:44No.
00:37:46Oh.
00:37:46Alright, let me just bitch about a couple of things and I'll never bring it up ever again.
00:37:49Okay.
00:37:50Give me.
00:37:50I just think the people here are a little superficial.
00:37:54Like they only care about money or the perception of having money.
00:37:58Not everyone.
00:37:58For example, our company receptionist has multiple Louis Vuitton purses.
00:38:03And I know for a fact, even though it's none of my business, that just one of those purses costs
00:38:07more than her monthly salary.
00:38:09Yeah.
00:38:09She's got her priorities straight.
00:38:10She doesn't even have her own apartment.
00:38:12She lives with her parents.
00:38:13She's 35.
00:38:14That's a cultural thing though.
00:38:15And when you're saving money on rent, you can buy purses.
00:38:19It's always raining at the worst times possible.
00:38:22And there's like a random typhoon every other week.
00:38:25If it's a Signal 8, you get off work.
00:38:27I miss Netflix.
00:38:28Just run a VPN program.
00:38:30And the Mexican food?
00:38:31Oof.
00:38:32Not good.
00:38:33Yeah.
00:38:34Okay.
00:38:34That one, I'll give you.
00:38:36I mean, we live in a major cosmopolitan city.
00:38:40And yet, they still make nachos with Doritos and yogurt.
00:38:43Ruby, stop.
00:38:45Will you look at this?
00:38:47Look at this.
00:38:51You're harping about nachos?
00:38:53Really?
00:38:55I know.
00:38:56But aren't there just some foods that you miss from back home?
00:38:59Yeah.
00:38:59Miss a good slice every now and then.
00:39:01But dim sum?
00:39:03It's so much better.
00:39:06Maybe I'm just homesick.
00:39:07Maybe you just haven't been to the right places.
00:39:09Like where?
00:39:10Are you hungry?
00:39:11I'm always hungry.
00:39:12All right.
00:39:13I'm gonna take you where the locals eat.
00:39:14Okay.
00:39:15There's just one thing.
00:39:16Hmm.
00:39:18I can't eat chicken feet.
00:39:19Like I've tried.
00:39:21I've just looked at it.
00:39:21All right.
00:39:22I can't do it.
00:39:22We'll save that for another time when you're ready.
00:39:24Okay.
00:39:24I'm gonna take you to the best seafood spot in Jordan.
00:39:28All right.
00:39:30Are you paying?
00:39:31Yeah.
00:39:32It's cheap.
00:39:33I got this.
00:39:51The post-it.
00:39:52Or a crumbling iron.
00:39:54Or.
00:39:55The one that I always think about is like the envelope.
00:39:58The little window on the envelope.
00:40:00Oh, the window on the envelope.
00:40:06What?
00:40:07Nothing.
00:40:07Sorry.
00:40:08Look.
00:40:10Don't.
00:40:10Can you stop being so judgmental?
00:40:12I'm not.
00:40:13You don't know if they're the couple.
00:40:15They could be like co-workers or something.
00:40:17I'm just.
00:40:18Really.
00:40:19Do you do that with your co-workers?
00:40:21Yes.
00:40:22Actually.
00:40:23That's a cultural thing here as well that you will become accustomed to.
00:40:32Do you think anyone thinks anything of us when they see us together?
00:40:39No, I don't think that.
00:40:41Really?
00:40:41No.
00:40:42No?
00:40:42No.
00:40:43You don't think that people assume that I'm a gold digger?
00:40:46A gold digger?
00:40:47Yeah.
00:40:47No.
00:40:48If anything, you're employed and you make more money than me so they probably think
00:40:53you're my sugar mom.
00:40:54I mean, obviously, I make more money than you do, but they don't know that.
00:40:58Honestly.
00:41:00I don't know that.
00:41:02I just, I know, I know I'm being super judgmental, I apologize, but I can't help it.
00:41:10I just, I see couples like this and I make assumptions.
00:41:13And I hate that I perpetuate this stereotype even further by dating a white guy.
00:41:19What?
00:41:21What?
00:41:23So, Greg's a white guy.
00:41:24Who's Greg?
00:41:25Oh, he's your boyfriend.
00:41:27Never told me his name, so I just gave him one.
00:41:30Yeah, Greg.
00:41:32I like that name.
00:41:32Yeah, Greg's a white guy.
00:41:35So, you're one of those Asian girls, huh?
00:41:37What?
00:41:37Yeah.
00:41:38I only date white guys.
00:41:40I do not only date white guys.
00:41:42Really?
00:41:43No.
00:41:46The majority have been white, but it's not on purpose.
00:41:49It's totally coincidental.
00:41:51No.
00:41:51No, it's okay.
00:41:52I've had a few Asian girlfriends and then suddenly, like, I'm the white guy with an Asian fetish.
00:41:58I fucking hate that.
00:42:00You gotta get used to couples like this.
00:42:02It's Hong Kong.
00:42:03I know.
00:42:03It's East beats West.
00:42:05They're everywhere.
00:42:06You're right.
00:42:08You're right.
00:42:12You're right.
00:42:35You're right.
00:42:37You're right.
00:42:37I know.
00:42:40There's a couple like that in my building.
00:42:44Everywhere they go, they get by, but they use like an app, like a Google translator app.
00:42:52Uh-huh.
00:42:52I've seen that before, too.
00:42:54Yeah.
00:42:56Well, do you think that you'd ever be able to be in a relationship like that?
00:43:00Please.
00:43:01I find it hard enough to date girls who do speak English.
00:43:04Yeah?
00:43:04How so?
00:43:05Yeah.
00:43:06It's, it's just like a, it's not a language barrier, but it's a, it's like a cultural barrier.
00:43:11Yeah.
00:43:12TV shows, movies, music, I grew up on, it just goes way over their heads.
00:43:18Yeah.
00:43:19Yeah, I feel you on that one.
00:43:20It's been really hard for me to connect, you know, with my friends at that level.
00:43:24I just want to be with somebody who understands what I'm talking about when I say, like,
00:43:30no soup for you.
00:43:31Ah, don't piss off the soup Nazi.
00:43:34Yes.
00:43:34It's the best soup in town.
00:43:36Okay.
00:43:37I had this ex-girlfriend and I was, I was trying to watch Seinfeld with her.
00:43:41Like, cause I had the DVDs.
00:43:42Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:43:43And she was like, I don't get it.
00:43:45It just seems like about nothing.
00:43:47And I'm like.
00:43:48But that's the whole point.
00:43:51Exactly.
00:44:02Ah!
00:44:23Thanks!
00:44:23These are cool.
00:44:26I like that.
00:44:28You need to take it like a selfie.
00:44:30Oh, really?
00:44:31Here, you ready?
00:44:37This is my life.
00:44:39No, they said it was 120 for both.
00:44:4280.
00:44:4580.
00:44:46It's tough.
00:44:47We're gonna walk away.
00:44:48That's all right.
00:44:49That's the thing about negotiating.
00:44:50You have to be up here and walk away.
00:44:52Yeah, okay.
00:44:54Why are you here for 120?
00:45:01How do you do that?
00:45:08You gotta work on your negotiations.
00:45:10I'm terrible.
00:45:11If they say 25, that really means like 10.
00:45:14160, 160.
00:45:16No, no, 70.
00:45:17160, 170.
00:45:18180.
00:45:19170.
00:45:20150.
00:45:21You're screwed.
00:45:22No, 150.
00:45:23Woo!
00:45:23Oh, like the Batmobile.
00:45:32Wow.
00:45:37160.
00:45:39160.
00:45:39You want it?
00:45:41160.
00:45:41160.
00:45:42Ha, ha, ha.
00:45:43Ha, ha.
00:45:45Ha, ha.
00:45:45It's a little cute old chicken.
00:45:47Yeah.
00:45:48Yeah.
00:45:49Wait, this is...
00:45:52This is Moose Like Jogger.
00:45:54What?
00:45:54Wait, this is mine too.
00:45:55You designed this?
00:45:56Yes, I did.
00:45:57Where did you, where did you get these?
00:45:59What are these doing here?
00:46:01They're with a cute.
00:46:01I designed them.
00:46:03He's totally ripping me off.
00:46:04Well, um...
00:46:04Can I call the police?
00:46:06You can take it as a compliment.
00:46:08A cute.
00:46:08You know you've made it when you've been ripped off in China.
00:46:12They're cute.
00:46:13A cute.
00:46:13Is that cute?
00:46:14Or the cheap?
00:46:15They're very cheap.
00:46:16They're very good.
00:46:18Okay.
00:46:19Yeah, you're right.
00:46:22Silver lining.
00:46:23Hey man, do you have the Lady Baba?
00:46:25Okay, thank you.
00:46:26Cause I can't find that anywhere.
00:46:28We're not gonna support that.
00:46:33Alright.
00:46:35This is the place.
00:46:37Yum.
00:46:38Really looking forward to this fresh crap.
00:46:41Hm?
00:46:43Oh.
00:46:45Don't worry about that.
00:46:48It's so great.
00:46:52No, sorry.
00:46:54Oh my God.
00:46:56I love this.
00:46:57I told you.
00:46:58This is...
00:46:58I know.
00:46:59I was really hesitant at first, but this is...
00:47:01This is...
00:47:01This is really good.
00:47:03Mm-hmm.
00:47:03I can see that you like it.
00:47:07You know I can tell?
00:47:08Why?
00:47:09Cause you have it all over your face.
00:47:12Where's that?
00:47:13Other side.
00:47:15Other side.
00:47:16Where yet?
00:47:16No.
00:47:17Here.
00:47:17Hold on.
00:47:18It's been driving me crazy.
00:47:21I think I got it.
00:47:22There you go.
00:47:24Sorry.
00:47:25I have to eat her.
00:47:26Hey.
00:47:27To eat politely is not to eat at all.
00:47:30Is that another Josh quote?
00:47:31It is.
00:47:32Yours truly.
00:47:35So do you come here often?
00:47:36Wow.
00:47:37Sounds like you're hitting on me.
00:47:40I used to.
00:47:42I just don't watch it anymore.
00:47:43Yeah.
00:47:43Why not?
00:47:45I don't know.
00:47:46Sam doesn't really like it that much.
00:47:51Sam is your...
00:47:52Oh, I'm sorry.
00:47:52Sam.
00:47:53She's my girlfriend.
00:47:54Sorry.
00:47:55Yeah.
00:47:55Samantha.
00:47:58Not her kind of place?
00:48:00No.
00:48:01Not really.
00:48:01She likes, um...
00:48:04More like sushi and...
00:48:06French.
00:48:07Places with ceilings.
00:48:09Air conditioning.
00:48:09Comfortable seats.
00:48:11Air conditioning.
00:48:11Air conditioning.
00:48:11Expensive bills.
00:48:13Sounds like a delicate flower.
00:48:16No, no.
00:48:17She's, um...
00:48:19She's tough as nails, actually.
00:48:20Oh.
00:48:23She grew up in China.
00:48:24Not...
00:48:24Not poor, but...
00:48:26Kind of poor.
00:48:28But she managed to...
00:48:29Make her way through college on a...
00:48:31On a full scholarship to UPenn.
00:48:34That's really impressive.
00:48:35Yeah.
00:48:36She's worked really hard to get to where she's at.
00:48:37What did she do?
00:48:39She's a banker.
00:48:41Oh.
00:48:42Yeah.
00:48:43Yeah.
00:48:43Okay.
00:48:44Yeah.
00:48:45And how does she take you quitting your job?
00:48:48Uh...
00:48:49You know.
00:48:50Uh-oh.
00:48:51Not so good, huh?
00:48:55Someone like her has worked so hard for every opportunity.
00:48:58I think it's difficult for her to understand why someone would just throw it all away.
00:49:01Well, you're not throwing it away.
00:49:02Yeah, I know I'm not.
00:49:04But...
00:49:08It's an ongoing discussion, I guess.
00:49:16All right.
00:49:17I've had a couple beers.
00:49:18I'm gonna say something I usually probably wouldn't have.
00:49:20So please don't be offended.
00:49:22Okay.
00:49:24I just think it's a little weird that...
00:49:26She doesn't...
00:49:27Understand why you want to write.
00:49:29Or why she doesn't come to one of your favorite restaurants.
00:49:32Well, do you and Greg agree on everything?
00:49:35No, we don't.
00:49:36But...
00:49:36You know, we've been together long enough where we've kind of...
00:49:39Ironed out those important things.
00:49:40Those things meaning what?
00:49:45You know, it's not just about likes or dislikes.
00:49:48It's about supporting each other through their goals and dreams.
00:49:51She supports me.
00:49:53I don't want to give you the wrong impression that she doesn't support me.
00:50:00It's...
00:50:19It's another thing that I can't seem to get used to.
00:50:25Oh.
00:50:28You get to a place where you don't even notice.
00:50:32Can't imagine not noticing.
00:50:39I'm Lucy.
00:50:41Sorry.
00:50:43Should we get out of here?
00:50:54Hey, so I'm really sorry about before.
00:50:57I didn't...
00:50:58Realize that you and Sam were so serious.
00:51:01You've only been going out for two years.
00:51:03Two years is a long time.
00:51:04It's not that long.
00:51:05It's long enough for the two of you to hit milestones together.
00:51:08I guess.
00:51:09Did you guys do the whole meet the parents thing?
00:51:12She's met mine.
00:51:13Yeah.
00:51:14But...
00:51:14You haven't met hers?
00:51:16They don't know I exist.
00:51:19It's complicated.
00:51:21They're not crazy about their daughter dating Aguila.
00:51:24But no, I mean, things are good with us.
00:51:27Overall.
00:51:28She's got a lot she wants to accomplish career-wise.
00:51:31Neither one of us are really ready to settle down yet, so...
00:51:38Plus, she's a little younger.
00:51:41How much younger is a little younger?
00:51:44Does it really matter?
00:51:48Josh...
00:51:48Which birthday was she celebrating when you first met?
00:51:5224th.
00:51:5324th?
00:51:53Yeah.
00:51:54I'm not that much older, okay?
00:51:56So typical.
00:51:57What?
00:51:58What do you mean typical?
00:51:59You're practically a decade older, but that's okay.
00:52:02So it's not like I'm one of these 60-year-old guys chasing around 20-year-olds?
00:52:05Yeah, not yet.
00:52:06But how do you think it all starts?
00:52:07Okay, what is the right age that I should be dating then?
00:52:11Let's see.
00:52:13I would say if you're 35, late 20s, early 30s.
00:52:18Hmm. How old are you again?
00:52:19That has nothing to do with this conversation.
00:52:21Just curious, how old?
00:52:23I'm 30.
00:52:24How age-appropriate.
00:52:43Do you know anything about Cantonese opera?
00:52:46Nope.
00:52:47Are they any good?
00:52:50I don't know.
00:52:54I don't know.
00:52:54These are your people.
00:52:55This is your cultural heritage.
00:52:57You know this.
00:52:58I don't know anything about Cantonese opera.
00:53:09Well, from one starving artist to another, I should probably tip her.
00:53:12Oh, that's very nice to do.
00:53:20That kind of cash?
00:53:21Yeah, it's growing on me.
00:53:29So when are you going to take your own advice, drop the teddy bears and open up a clothing
00:53:33boot seat, huh?
00:53:34Yeah, I don't know.
00:53:35I think I may stick with singing animals for a while.
00:53:38Really?
00:53:39Yeah.
00:53:40You know, for a long time I held fashion in such a high regard, but it is actually much more
00:53:45difficult constructing a three-dimensional toy than it is a piece of clothing.
00:53:49Huh.
00:53:50I just don't think that I appreciated it because I didn't really spend a lot of time at the
00:53:53factories, but now I do.
00:53:55Huh.
00:53:56Because last year you were kind of...
00:53:58What, above it all?
00:54:00Yeah.
00:54:00Yeah.
00:54:01Shut up.
00:54:03Well, you know, I used to dream of seeing my designs at Burgdorf's and Barney's, but now
00:54:08I get to see it at every Walmart and drugstore chain in the country.
00:54:11Yeah, and they buy quantity.
00:54:12Exactly.
00:54:14This one time I was at Walgreens, I saw this father buying one of my toys for his daughter.
00:54:19Oh.
00:54:20Actually, it brought a little tear to my eye.
00:54:25I know, it's super cheesy, but...
00:54:27It's not cheesy.
00:54:28It's cute.
00:54:29Hello, hello, hello.
00:54:31Come, come, come.
00:54:32My Bertie tell you fortune, okay?
00:54:35What a fortune teller.
00:54:37It's like a tourist trap.
00:54:38Oh, yeah, it's so awesome.
00:54:40Let me stop you.
00:54:41Please sit down.
00:54:43Right.
00:54:44Shall we speak French, Italian, German, English, American English?
00:54:48English.
00:54:49American English.
00:54:50Yes.
00:54:50Okay.
00:54:52So, ladies first, okay?
00:54:54Yes.
00:54:55What would you like to know?
00:54:56Fortunes, health, study, love, what?
00:54:59Love.
00:55:00Of course.
00:55:01Ladies want to know about love.
00:55:03Always.
00:55:04Okay.
00:55:05First, you shuffle the card, okay?
00:55:07Okay.
00:55:07Because it's your fortune.
00:55:11There.
00:55:14Okay.
00:55:15Now we give it to the birdie to pick, okay?
00:55:18Okay.
00:55:19Okay.
00:55:19The birdie will decide your fortune.
00:55:21We put it here, and then we let the birdie out, okay?
00:55:25Whoa!
00:55:26Hey!
00:55:27Oh, my God, it's so cute.
00:55:30Okay, that's pretty cute.
00:55:32Aw.
00:55:35What's he doing?
00:55:37He's in his height.
00:55:38Oh!
00:55:38Oh, my God!
00:55:40Oh, that was awesome.
00:55:41Okay.
00:55:42I'm impressed.
00:55:43So, here is your fortune.
00:55:45Oh, thank you.
00:55:46You beat, okay?
00:55:49Love can be likened to a tree.
00:55:51When it is blossoming, wait for fruit with patience.
00:55:54Of course, the precondition of our marriage is that both of you have a disposition for getting along well.
00:55:59Thank you for your HK $50.
00:56:04That's it?
00:56:06But the birds were cute, right?
00:56:09Oh, sorry.
00:56:10No good?
00:56:11It's good.
00:56:12Oh, birdie, no good.
00:56:13No, it's fine.
00:56:14Okay, never mind.
00:56:15I tell you fortune.
00:56:17For real, okay?
00:56:18No charge.
00:56:19Oh, you know what?
00:56:20I'm actually all fortuned out, but why don't you do him?
00:56:23I tell you fortune, okay?
00:56:25Tell my fortune, yes.
00:56:26Okay, good.
00:56:27Come here.
00:56:28Oh.
00:56:28I tell you fortune from your face.
00:56:31Oh, okay.
00:56:32This is how you're doing it?
00:56:33Okay.
00:56:36My God.
00:56:37What?
00:56:37Everything okay?
00:56:41Very big nose.
00:56:44Is that a fortune or is that just like a statement?
00:56:48No, no, no.
00:56:48Big nose means much money, okay?
00:56:51No!
00:56:52Wow.
00:56:53Lots of money!
00:56:54Should I be offended by this?
00:56:55Not at all.
00:56:55It doesn't sound.
00:56:56He hasn't even gotten to your ears yet.
00:56:57But you have to wait until you are 40.
00:57:00Oh.
00:57:01Big nose, much money when you are 40.
00:57:04Until I'm 40, all right.
00:57:05Right.
00:57:07Are you married?
00:57:09Me?
00:57:09No, no, no.
00:57:11I think maybe come very close.
00:57:15Yes.
00:57:17I think maybe you were engaged.
00:57:20I was.
00:57:22Ah.
00:57:23Too bad.
00:57:25Right?
00:57:25But never mind.
00:57:26You love coming.
00:57:28Ah.
00:57:29Yes, thank you.
00:57:30You can tell all this by my nose, huh?
00:57:32No, no.
00:57:32I can tell it from the young ladies.
00:57:34The way you look at each other, okay?
00:57:36You're good.
00:57:36Oh, no.
00:57:37All right.
00:57:38Well, thank you.
00:57:39Good.
00:57:39You have a beautiful nose as well, sir.
00:57:42Much money, yeah?
00:57:43Yeah, good.
00:57:44For the birds, okay?
00:57:44For the birds.
00:57:45Okay.
00:57:46All right.
00:57:47Thank you very much.
00:57:49I'll be back when I'm 40.
00:57:51Good luck.
00:57:51If you're right.
00:57:52Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:58:05What?
00:58:07So you were engaged once.
00:58:09There it is.
00:58:10Ten minutes.
00:58:10I knew you were going to ask.
00:58:11What happened?
00:58:12I mean, we don't have to talk about it.
00:58:14I don't care.
00:58:15I'll talk about it.
00:58:15We were young and stupid.
00:58:18We met right after graduation, and we got engaged three weeks later.
00:58:22Oh.
00:58:23Yeah.
00:58:24She was an American Lit major.
00:58:26So we took a date trip up to Sleepy Hollow, and I got on one knee right on Washington Irving's
00:58:31grave.
00:58:32Aw.
00:58:33That's impulsive and weirdly romantic.
00:58:35Yup.
00:58:36And then she cheated on me.
00:58:38With my friend.
00:58:40I'm really sorry.
00:58:41No, it's...
00:58:41That's awful.
00:58:42Actually, it's fine.
00:58:43It all worked out for the best.
00:58:45You know, I came here for a job.
00:58:47I was only supposed to be here for a year.
00:58:49Sounds familiar.
00:58:50Eleven years later.
00:58:52Can I end up here for that long?
00:58:54Hey, you never know.
00:58:56Hey, I guess you don't.
00:58:57Oops.
00:58:59Is he trying to Skype you?
00:59:00Sorry.
00:59:01No, no.
00:59:01It's just my outlook reminder for a Skype call later.
00:59:06Wait.
00:59:06You're what?
00:59:07I know.
00:59:07I know.
00:59:08It's pretty dorky.
00:59:09But he likes to send me an outlook reminder for Skype dates.
00:59:13Wow.
00:59:13He says that it makes him happy to see him in his calendar.
00:59:17So...
00:59:18I guess that's pretty sweet.
00:59:21Yeah.
00:59:22He is really sweet.
00:59:23So how long have you and Greg been, uh...
00:59:28Um, five years.
00:59:30Yeah?
00:59:30On and off.
00:59:32Yeah.
00:59:33So when we met you were...
00:59:34Off again.
00:59:35Obviously.
00:59:36Hey, I don't know.
00:59:39What's next for you two?
00:59:43Oh, sorry.
00:59:44Yeah, no worries.
00:59:45My turn.
00:59:47Hello.
00:59:48Hey.
00:59:50Uh...
00:59:50Yeah, I'm sorry.
00:59:51Yeah, I'm gonna be there.
00:59:52I just got caught up with something.
00:59:54Okay.
00:59:55Okay.
00:59:56I'm coming.
00:59:56Sorry.
00:59:57Bye.
00:59:58Sam?
01:00:00No.
01:00:01It's my friends.
01:00:02They're musicians.
01:00:03They're playing at this little spot over in Hong Kong.
01:00:05Hi.
01:00:07You wanna come?
01:00:08No, thanks.
01:00:12She's not gonna be there.
01:00:13I wasn't thinking that.
01:00:14Okay, then.
01:00:15Forget I said it.
01:00:17It'll be a good opportunity for you to meet some new people.
01:00:20Uh...
01:00:21Come on.
01:00:21No, I don't know.
01:00:23I just...
01:00:24It'd be weird.
01:00:25You're being weird.
01:00:27It's practically on your way home.
01:00:28Come on.
01:00:29Let's split a cab.
01:00:31I'm not being weird.
01:00:32You're being weird.
01:00:33Let's just go.
01:00:34They're a good band.
01:00:37Fine.
01:00:37Only if you can find a cab.
01:00:39Alright.
01:00:42This is weird.
01:00:43Everyone knows you can't find a cross harbor taxi at this time.
01:00:46But there's usually a long line of taxis here.
01:00:50Here we go.
01:00:57No?
01:00:57Come on.
01:00:58See, I told you.
01:00:59Maybe it's a sign.
01:01:00A sign of what?
01:01:01That I should just take the train home.
01:01:03No.
01:01:03No.
01:01:04That's not happening.
01:01:05We're getting a taxi.
01:01:07Alright.
01:01:07I'm gonna give you one more shot.
01:01:08Okay.
01:01:09Take those odds.
01:01:12Here we go.
01:01:13Here we go.
01:01:13This is the one.
01:01:14The one.
01:01:15The one.
01:01:42What?
01:02:25Hey, man, how are you?
01:02:27Hey, Josh.
01:02:28This is Ruby.
01:02:30Hi.
01:02:30How's everything working?
01:02:32Good.
01:02:32Can you tell them I said hello?
01:02:34I'll do.
01:02:40You want a drink?
01:02:41Yeah, very great.
01:02:42What do you have?
01:02:43I'll have a beer.
01:02:47I'll have a beer.
01:02:50Oh, what?
01:03:05Oh.
01:03:08Yeah.
01:03:09Oh.
01:03:09I'm supposed to feel like it's yours
01:03:12I'm supposed to feel like it's yours
01:03:16As for why you would wait for me
01:03:19As for why you would wait for me
01:03:22It's a quandary I can't stop
01:03:28As for why you would wait for me
01:03:32As for why you would wait for me
01:03:34Your friends are great
01:03:35Do you have a residency here?
01:03:38It's a cool place
01:03:39It's cool, right?
01:03:40Yeah
01:03:41I'm sorry, are we going to say?
01:03:43Oh, I wanted to show you this picture
01:03:49No
01:03:50Ten minutes after we met
01:03:52And this got me into a lot of trouble
01:03:55Oh yeah?
01:03:56Yeah
01:03:56What happened?
01:03:58I told Sam what happened that night
01:04:00And then she saw this photo three months later
01:04:04She was like, you didn't tell me she was that pretty
01:04:06Whatever you should say that
01:04:16Thank you very much
01:04:18Woo!
01:04:19We have time for one more song
01:04:21What do you guys want to hear?
01:04:22Art!
01:04:23Art!
01:04:25Is that their big one?
01:04:26They won
01:04:41Okay, and come up
01:04:43Let's go
01:04:43Oh my god
01:04:45I don't know
01:04:46Come on, come on
01:04:47Come on
01:04:57Oh say it shield my heart, it shield my heart, it shield my heart, it shield my heart
01:05:19Oh, my God.
01:06:00Oh, my God.
01:06:16Good. This is my friend, Ruby.
01:06:20Hi, I'm Monica. Sam's friend. His girlfriend.
01:06:23She knows the same. Yeah.
01:06:25What are you doing here?
01:06:27We just came here to see Nats and Exes. Support the guys.
01:06:31Well, it was really good seeing you.
01:06:32Yeah, you too.
01:06:34Tell Sam I said hi.
01:06:35I will. Good to see you. Bye.
01:06:42Excuse me.
01:06:47Wait.
01:06:49Hey, Josh. We're taking off.
01:06:50Oh, you guys are taking off?
01:06:51Yeah.
01:06:52Why don't you come over sometime, man?
01:06:53Yeah, I will. I will. I promise.
01:06:55Can you check out the new?
01:07:14You okay?
01:07:17Yep. Just needed some air.
01:07:19Yeah.
01:07:21Sorry about that.
01:07:25It's pretty awful.
01:07:29Can I get one of these?
01:07:34Yeah.
01:07:51What are we doing?
01:07:57Smoking a cigarette?
01:08:01I don't know.
01:08:04What do you mean?
01:08:07I mean this whole night.
01:08:10Look.
01:08:11What are we doing?
01:08:12I know where you're going with this, but...
01:08:14Really, we're just...
01:08:16We're just hanging out.
01:08:19Right?
01:08:30I don't know.
01:08:42I need to get going.
01:08:48Should we split a cab?
01:08:49Yeah, that's fine.
01:08:52Dude, that's fine.
01:08:54I don't know.
01:08:58I don't know.
01:09:01I don't know.
01:09:03Let's go.
01:10:00Let's go.
01:10:22Does he appreciate your stupid quotes?
01:10:26Does he appreciate your sassy attitude all the time?
01:10:31Goes right over his head.
01:10:33That's good, I guess.
01:10:38It's not fair for them.
01:10:44We haven't done anything.
01:10:48I don't want to be a cheater.
01:10:50Neither do I.
01:10:53But we're not.
01:10:54I'm talking about emotionally cheating, not just...
01:10:57You're right, I...
01:11:01It's hard to define.
01:11:04You know when you feel it.
01:11:07Look, I don't think we should beat ourselves up over this.
01:11:10Maybe just by virtue of the fact that we can have a night like this...
01:11:14Two.
01:11:14Exactly.
01:11:15Two nights like this.
01:11:17Maybe that means that we should...
01:11:20Take a look at our relationships and I don't know...
01:11:25Re-evaluate?
01:11:35He's coming this weekend.
01:11:37Who, Greg?
01:11:38Daniel.
01:11:39His name is Daniel.
01:11:40Oh, Daniel.
01:11:40Wow.
01:11:42He's way off.
01:11:44And he's helping me back up.
01:11:48My ear is up next week.
01:11:50And the suit was...
01:11:52For our engagement party.
01:11:59You're engaged?
01:12:02Yeah.
01:12:06I'm sorry.
01:12:07I know.
01:12:07I should have told you sooner.
01:12:08I just...
01:12:09It's just such a new thing for me.
01:12:10I'm not really used to the idea yet.
01:12:15You're not wearing a ring.
01:12:16We're picking out one together when he gets here.
01:12:19It's just...
01:12:19More cost efficient that way.
01:12:21Good old sensible Greg.
01:12:24Did you propose over Skype too?
01:12:26No.
01:12:28We discussed it together.
01:12:30It was a decision we made.
01:12:33Very, very romantic.
01:12:36Not everyone can be as impressive as you.
01:12:45I'm happy for you, Ruby.
01:12:48I am.
01:12:56Except now I just...
01:12:58I don't know what I want.
01:13:02I don't know what I want.
01:13:03I don't know what I want.
01:13:19I don't know what I want.
01:13:20Dula.
01:13:21Just...
01:13:22...one second.
01:13:23Padia?
01:13:23Wake up running.
01:13:25Just keep it running.
01:13:26That's okay.
01:13:27What are you saying, Ruby?
01:13:30I don't know...
01:13:32Wait. This night just threw me for such a loop.
01:13:38Me too.
01:13:40I don't want to hurt him.
01:13:44I don't want to hurt her.
01:14:13I don't want to hurt her.
01:14:14Maybe it's just like that.
01:14:17I don't want to hurt her.
01:14:21If you want to hurt her,
01:14:26I don't want to hurt her.
01:14:28Just like that.
01:14:33Or you don't want to hurt her.
01:14:38If you want to hurt her,
01:14:42I don't want to hurt her.
01:14:44I don't want to hurt her.
01:15:02If I want to hurt her,
01:15:05I don't want to hurt her.
01:15:07I could have to go to college.
01:15:11If I want to hurt her,
01:15:23You don't want to hurt her.
01:15:32如果永远也离不开他 你便会更害怕
01:15:42现在不是更好吗 他永远变了一幅画
01:15:53你只需要间中挂起他 原来一下自己吧
01:16:01你对自己一向这么差 带来了这么多我光 要你慢慢消化
01:16:37或许多年的时间也不会有一个很大的比较
01:16:39或许多年 也不会有一个很大的一切
01:16:47或许多年 也不会有一个很大的一切
01:16:48再继续去掉一切
01:16:52或许多年 或许多年 或许多年 或许多年
01:16:56Oh, to what do I choose to buy? Oh, to what do I choose to buy?
01:17:06Will it break or be embraced? Be it treasured or waste to waste? Be it pleasured or pain I taste?
01:17:16But this is my heart, this is my heart When the darkness lies in wait All the light promises to
01:17:26praise Be it heaven or hell I face But this is my heart, this is my heart
01:17:35All the rock goes And the flame slows All the wet shows But do we give way?
01:17:49Ooh, ooh, ooh When the darkness lies in wait All the light promises to praise Be it heaven or hell
01:18:06I face But this is my heart, this is my heart
01:18:11This is my heart, this is my heart, this is my heart
