00:00:02I've always described the world in words people moments places all through
00:00:10metaphors and margins okay like my mom self-made stubborn and never wrong
00:00:18almost there you excited for your first day she calls this a fresh start I call it terrifying
00:00:31you've got this just for yourself that's kind of the problem
00:01:04okay morning class and you're not seated because I don't have a seat ah a new
00:01:16transfer Alice Keaton right let's see there's a spot next to Charles seriously
00:01:27a charity case sitting next to Charles quiet Charles I've always had words for
00:01:38everything but in that moment I forgot them all
00:01:53Charles move your things I'd rather not she'll be a distraction from what
00:02:00sleeping from everything if anything Charles Miss Keaton will be a positive
00:02:05influence on you she was top of her class at a previous school with all due
00:02:11respect sir her previous school was American I highly doubt that that's
00:02:19enough she can sit here it's fine
00:02:24back to Goldie thank you you got it I'm Sherry Vaughn Alice Keaton it's very important that we look at
00:02:33what he's talking about their experience of the time
00:02:39wait you sat next to Charles she didn't you totally shut her down oh knew it don't take it
00:02:46personally he's impossible can everyone stop acting like the goal is getting into his pants
00:02:51what he's hot everyone kind of is I I've seen Connor he's not my type you're joking I don't find
00:03:01bullies attractive hey be careful we're talking about the king of Ashford the what his family
00:03:08basically own the school and the town maybe even the country yeah everyone's tried to get close no
00:03:15one can get past his ego you're not the first to get nice okay first of all I wasn't iced
00:03:21it's more
00:03:21like a mutual decision and second I think he's arrogant cold thinks he's untouchable but if you
00:03:29really look at Charles he just seems isolated like he's making honestly I just think he's lonely and
00:03:36kind of pathetic what no go on you were saying I'm lonely and pathetic next time read the room

00:04:40company the young master this is your boss's house yeah that's not credible I mean I wouldn't call it a
00:04:50house it's a museum with better landscaping wait here I'll talk to the butler wow rich people you've topped

00:06:15house my library and now apparently my unwanted guest ah master Charles must be miss Alice and daughter
00:06:26she said she said you'd be moving in today she what there there's been some kind of misunderstanding you
00:06:32see I'm not actually moving in that's up yeah I'm not staying here like at all that's a shame you
00:06:40must
00:06:40seem quite pleased with the arrangement well I just don't think it's appropriate well you're sure then
00:06:46absolutely not come on Alice you must stay it'll be fun my dear classmate I'm dead like mentally socially
00:07:04and actually dead just trying to figure out how exactly my life went off the rails get it together
00:07:18Alice Keaton you've been through hell actually no this is hell good morning
00:07:46Alice Keaton what thing doesn't know that stops been closed for months she's going to be late
00:07:59okay how long is this thing gonna take maybe I'll just walk five miles to school
00:08:07okay if I sprint maybe I'll make it before first period or die of exhaustion on the way
00:08:20what what are you doing here didn't you already leave
00:08:26wait did you come back for me relax I forgot my textbook don't flatter yourself wait
00:08:39since you're already here maybe you could be a decent person and give me a ride
00:08:48no seriously your car is huge yeah and I'm not a fan of sharing says the guy who forced me
00:08:58to live in
00:08:59his house unbelievable
00:09:13Ashford Institute please thank you
00:09:20who needs an entitled brat anyway sir you called the cab why not just give miss Keaton a lift
00:09:32why not just give miss Keaton a lift and have the whole school go crazy she's new everybody's
00:09:38already talking so you're worried about her you're overthinking I just don't like drama
00:09:51asshole hey morning class back to Golding remind me what he's saying through Lord of the Flies
00:10:04Mr Kenwood care to share what you found so amusing
00:10:08not particularly oh I insist you seem very entertained by Golding
00:10:14I'm not entertained by Golding sir on the contrary I think his ending is weak
00:10:22wait wait do I actually read it quiet
00:10:28that's an interesting take explain
00:10:32he had the set up for something brutal something honest in the end he backed out he could have left
00:10:39the boys on the island force them to confront the collapse of all morality let them choose survival
00:10:45or death but instead he gave them a rescue boat slapped a happily ever after on a book about savagery
00:10:56it's a waste don't you think I'm delightfully surprised Charles didn't think you had such strong
00:11:02literary opinions I'm always a model student sir let's not get ahead of ourselves
00:11:09so a critique of Golding's mercy anyone disagree
00:11:29I think Golding knew exactly what he was doing by ending the book that way it's not mercy it's irony
00:11:35how so
00:11:38the rescue isn't a happy ending you don't just walk back into society and forget you're a monster
00:11:44Golding didn't save them he left us with the discomfort of pretending they could be saved
00:11:48that's an interesting take Miss Keeter you still think it's a harsh critique
00:11:53in some ways but not harsh enough yes it's a critique of toxic masculinity but still Golding
00:12:02sympathize with them and the civilized world toxic violent he didn't call that out nearly as much
00:12:07so yeah I don't think Golding pushed far enough but I think it's unfair to call it a happy ending
00:12:16thank you Miss Keeter well said anyone else
00:12:23both opinions are valid okay that's kind of epic Golding faced major backlash when he first published
00:12:30the book good literature will always divide what's happening to me
00:12:43okay what is going on why is everyone staring at me well you're new and apparently had a thing
00:12:49with Charles oh what now you two are in the middle of this epic feud as your teen in years
00:12:56we're not
00:12:56even fighting well according to everyone you confessed your love on day one got rejected
00:13:01begged to sit next to him got rejected again and today in class you broke down crying about not
00:13:08believing in happy endings and stormed out in tears you were there Sherry that is not what happened
00:13:17doesn't matter people believe what they want to believe and they want Charles to be flawless
00:13:23untouchable wow is massage any like a rich kid thing or is a British specialty honestly both but
00:13:31seriously Alice some people already see you as a threat okay loaded it's like the new girls in for a
00:13:46rough
00:13:47first semester hello hello is somebody out there
00:14:08oh come on fine
00:14:24fine
00:14:38seriously
00:14:42oh shit
00:14:48what the hell
00:14:51Anne I thought you were having dinner with Alice
00:14:52she hasn't come home her phone is off maybe you've seen her this evening
00:15:00yikes looks like the new girls in for a rough first semester
00:15:09shit
00:15:14Alice
00:15:15Alice
00:15:16Mr Pelton Charles Kenwood here I was wondering if I could get the timetable for Alice Keaton
00:15:21she hasn't come home she hasn't come home I'll have it sent over check the common room in the library
00:15:26I'll take the rest
00:15:30Alice

00:16:00you're fine
00:16:06Alice
00:16:14Hey, Mr. Nonchalant
00:16:19Are you happy with how we ended?
00:16:25What are you doing here?
00:16:29Can you get off me first?
00:16:31No.
00:16:41You're welcome.
00:16:42I didn't say thank you.
00:16:44I figured saving your life might turn me basic manners.
00:16:47Someone just dumped swamp water on me.
00:16:50Excuse me if I'm not feeling very polite.
00:16:52You smell like a biology experiment.
00:16:54Wow.
00:16:55You should try falling out of a window into someone's arms and getting insulted for it.
00:16:59I wouldn't recommend it.
00:17:01You're heavier than you look.
00:17:04I hope you pull your shoulder.
00:17:11Are you okay?
00:17:13No, but I will be.
00:17:16Someone did this on purpose.
00:17:18What do you think, golden boy?
00:17:20Don't worry, I can handle it.
00:17:22You shouldn't have to.
00:17:26I'm...
00:17:27Sorry.
00:17:34Sorry.
00:17:39Did you just apologize to me?
00:17:42Don't get used to it.
00:17:43I wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:47Alice?
00:17:48Over here.
00:17:50Oh my God.
00:17:52You okay?
00:17:55Why are you drenched?
00:17:57Yeah, I just took a weird shower.
00:18:00Top exploded.
00:18:03Come on, let's go you home.
00:18:15Alice's cheating, right?
00:18:17I heard she staged the whole thing for attention.
00:18:22Yeah.
00:18:22Yeah.
00:18:23Yeah.
00:18:24Yeah.
00:18:24Yeah.
00:18:24Yeah.
00:18:25Yeah.
00:18:26Yeah.
00:18:26Yeah.
00:18:28Yeah.
00:18:30Yeah.
00:18:43I know how this place works.
00:18:45If you don't do anything about it, it's only going to get worse.
00:18:50I'll look into it.
00:18:52Charles?
00:18:55Good on you.
00:18:56How many here would speak up?
00:19:02I can't believe someone actually locked you in.
00:19:04That's insane.
00:19:05Where the hell was the school when this was happening?
00:19:08Busy protecting their golden boys and trust fans.
00:19:11Well, for what it's worth, I heard Charles looked pretty freaked out when he ran out last
00:19:16night.
00:19:17Please, he just didn't want a lawsuit.
00:19:36Being a scholarship student has its perks, like saving a fortune on tuition and getting
00:19:42into schools that normally wouldn't even let you pass the gates.
00:19:51But sometimes, being here means staying behind, and watching Ashford Elites go on a two-week
00:19:58enrichment program you can never afford.
00:20:02Have fun.
00:20:03Bring me something overpriced and unnecessary.
00:20:11The trip cost 20 grand in pounds, which translates to mom's salary for half a year.
00:20:17So, yeah, I didn't go.
00:20:39Uh, what are you doing here?
00:20:42Do you not believe in shirts?
00:20:43Do you not believe in dignity?
00:20:45It's comfortable.
00:20:46You look like a rejected Ewok.
00:20:48This, this is not even your kitchen.
00:20:50And this is not even your house.
00:20:52And yet, you're here, dressed like this.
00:20:55Just don't look.
00:20:56Go away.
00:20:57Hard not to, when you're walking around dressed like that.
00:21:00What do you guys call it?
00:21:02Um, buzzkill?
00:21:05Cockblock.
00:21:06You're insufferable.
00:21:07You're the one cosplaying at breakfast.
00:21:09You know what?
00:21:10I don't get it.
00:21:11Why didn't you go on that tour?
00:21:12I thought rich people lived for that kind of thing.
00:21:14Why do you think?
00:21:21How would I go?
00:21:22I could practically recite the itinerary in my sleep.
00:21:26Florence.
00:21:27Walk in the great footsteps of Dante, Michelangelo, da Vinci and Titian.
00:21:32Or Tiziano, if you want to sound extra pretentious.
00:21:36Then Venice, because everybody loves a good canal and getting lost in the most confusing city on earth.
00:21:42Next stop, Napoli.
00:21:44Marvel at Pompeii.
00:21:45Pretend you're shocked.
00:21:47Ancient people had plumbing.
00:21:48The final stop, Paris.
00:21:50The ultimate city of romance.
00:21:54And, naturally, Woody Allen's favourite city outside of New York.
00:22:01That's word for word.
00:22:03I told you.
00:22:04I've done this tour so many times I could run it.
00:22:07Okay, but still, it's Europe.
00:22:09Most people would kill for that chance.
00:22:11Most people haven't had their phones stolen in Paris.
00:22:14Twice.
00:22:16Also, I hate the accommodations.
00:22:18Aren't they all five-star hotels?
00:22:20Standard rooms in five-star hotels.
00:22:23No, thank you.
00:22:25Wow.
00:22:26Some were born in Rome, huh?
00:22:27That's unfortunate.
00:22:28It's a very chaotic city.
00:22:30One word of advice?
00:22:31Shut up.
00:22:32That's two words.
00:22:35You're weird.
00:22:36You're loud.
00:22:37You're annoying.
00:22:37You're in my kitchen.
00:22:38You have three other kitchens.
00:22:40And I prefer this one.
00:22:42Just for today.
00:22:43Come back when you've got a shirt on.
00:22:45Come back with normal clothes on.
00:22:46You didn't have to come.
00:22:47Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:22:57Master Charles, roads are flooded.
00:22:59Staff won't make it tonight.
00:23:00Will you be alright sorting dinner?
00:23:05I've got it sorted.
00:23:18Jesus, what are you doing?
00:23:20Relax.
00:23:23I'm here to make a deal.
00:23:25What deal?
00:23:25You nearly gave me a heart attack.
00:23:31You'll survive.
00:23:33I'm not selling my body.
00:23:38I'm not selling my body.
00:23:44Wow.
00:23:45I am deeply offended.
00:23:48That thought disgusts me.
00:23:50Then what are you doing?
00:23:51The staff's off tonight.
00:23:53I'm buying dinner.
00:23:57Did you seriously think I'd spend a hundred pounds on...
00:24:00No, I...
00:24:01Jesus.
00:24:03Wait.
00:24:04You think I'm not worth one hundred pounds?
00:24:07I'm not spending one hundred pounds to snort you back up.
00:24:11You know what?
00:24:11Dinner's cancelled.
00:24:15Are you sure about that?
00:24:18I present to you...
00:24:20Meatball spaghetti, stir-fried veggies, and french fries.
00:24:23You're welcome.
00:24:25Interesting combo.
00:24:26Well, I know we're not in Italy or France, but this will do.
00:24:30It's...
00:24:31Good.
00:24:38Was that a compliment?
00:24:40Although...
00:24:40I am obliged to inform you.
00:24:43Meatball spaghetti isn't Italian.
00:24:45It's American.
00:24:46And french fries, likely born in South America.
00:24:49You should read more.
00:24:52Put it down.
00:24:54I paid for it.
00:24:55You really just have to win every argument, don't you?
00:24:57To be fair, you make it very easy.
00:25:02It's only easy because it costs you a hundred pounds.
00:25:05You know, if you'd ask for more, I probably would have given it to you.
00:25:07I'll make sure of that.
00:25:23Hey, Alice, it's fine.
00:25:25You're fine.
00:25:33911, look for your emergency.
00:25:39911, what's for your emergency?

00:44:42Oops.
00:45:00Oh, sorry.
00:45:01Didn't see that.
00:45:03Then again, nobody does.
00:45:05Move, please.
00:45:07Try begging.
00:45:14You know what? Keep it.
00:45:20Poor thing.
00:45:22So dramatic.
00:45:24Don't.
00:45:26Excuse me?
00:45:27I warned you.
00:45:29Walk away, Serena.
00:45:30Oh.
00:45:50Last week's group assignments were mostly forgettable.
00:45:54But one pair surprised me, in a good way.
00:45:58Charles Kenwood and Alice Keaton.
00:46:01Would you mind giving us her short summary?
00:46:04If she loves the sound of her own voice, better have it.
00:46:14Our essay explored what happens when two fundamentally different voices meet.
00:46:19Like logic and chaos, or silence and noise.
00:46:24Different worlds, different rules.
00:46:28At first glance, they clash.
00:46:30But what makes the story interesting is what happens next.
00:46:35Confusion, curiosity.
00:46:37But in the end, some stories aren't about staying.
00:46:40And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending.
00:46:52And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending.
00:46:56Is she still talking about the essay?
00:47:01Yes, Keaton.
00:47:03Dramatic as always.
00:47:05Alright.
00:47:06Thank you, Alice.
00:47:07That was...
00:47:09Laid.
00:47:11Are you okay?
00:47:12Laid.
00:47:13That good literature always stirs something.
00:47:19Hello?
00:47:20Hi, here's Alice Keaton.
00:47:21This is Whitmore Press.
00:47:22We've been following your work.
00:47:24We'd like to offer you a long-term publishing contract.
00:47:26Name your price.
00:47:27We'll make it work.
00:47:28Sorry, what?
00:47:29What?
00:47:33That's...
00:47:34Kind of...
00:47:35Insane.
00:47:36Who's behind this?
00:47:37Your sponsor wishes to remain anonymous.
00:47:40Can...
00:47:41Can I meet them?
00:47:43I want to.
00:47:45Please.
00:47:46Or at least tell me a name.
00:47:51Sorry, they wish to stay in office.
00:47:53So they're only interested in work, not the person.
00:47:55I'd really like to meet them.
00:47:57I'm sorry, Miss Keaton.
00:47:58Name was very soon.
00:47:59I think the most generous offer we've ever given in New York City.
00:48:03I see.
00:48:04Congratulations again.
00:48:09You got the interview!
00:48:10It's just an interview.
00:48:11I haven't gotten an interview yet.
00:48:13Still, Alice Keaton at Oxford.
00:48:16That's iconic.
00:48:25You okay?
00:48:27Yeah.
00:48:28I'm so excited!
00:48:30I'm so excited!
00:48:42It's done, Mr. Kenwood.
00:48:44Miss Keaton signed the contract.
00:48:47Good.
00:48:48It's a generous deal.
00:48:49You sure you don't want her to know?
00:48:52No.
00:48:54No, it's better if I stay out of her life.
00:49:05Congratulations, Alice Keaton.
00:49:07Go live the life you were always meant to.
00:49:15Your engagement and announcement should align perfectly with the Foundation Gala.
00:49:20And the Browns already offered to host the London Reception.
00:49:25It's all coming together beautifully.
00:49:31I've lost my appetite.
00:49:36I'll go check on him.
00:49:42What's your problem, Charles?
00:49:47This engagement is not happening.
00:49:50It's not up to you.
00:49:51You know that.
00:49:52Serena, we're not doing this.
00:49:55You've changed.
00:49:59Or maybe I finally just stopped pretending.
00:50:02I didn't know you were waiting.
00:50:03You know, right?
00:50:04I didn't know you were waiting.
00:50:20I didn't know you were waiting.
00:50:23The end of the pack is...
00:50:28You really didn't know you were waiting?
00:50:29You're waiting?
00:50:32You've been funding Alice Keaton this whole time.
00:50:37So?
00:50:38You lied to everyone, including her.
00:50:41I protected her.
00:50:44You loved her.
00:50:47Still do.
00:50:49Let it go, Serena.
00:50:52There's no point.
00:51:02I need a favour.
00:51:04Find out when the Oxford interview is.
00:51:07And make sure Alice Keaton won't show up.
00:51:14Anything?
00:51:15No?
00:51:16She's not answering.
00:51:18The interview's almost over.
00:51:20Well, she won't just not show up.
00:51:22Something's wrong.
00:51:24Where's Alice?
00:51:26When was the last time you heard from her?
00:51:28Last night.
00:51:29She said she was prepping all evening.
00:51:34James, track someone for me.
00:51:38Wait, where are you going?
00:51:47Chill, okay?
00:51:48We won't hurt you.
00:51:50Yeah, we're just supposed to keep you away from the interview.
00:51:53That's it.
00:52:01Shit!
00:52:02Come back!
00:52:03Fuck!
00:52:30I
00:52:31I remember how it meant
00:52:35Didn't need a second guess
00:52:40Hey, hey, hey, Alice, Alice
00:52:43Alice, stay with me, stay with me, stay with me, Alice
00:52:53You're awake?
00:52:55Where, where am I?
00:52:57A local clinic. Passer by brought you in.
00:53:01Passer by.
00:53:02He found you on the side of the road.
00:53:04He had to leave, he didn't leave a name.
00:53:08Oh.
00:53:10The interview, what time is it?
00:53:12Easy, it's okay.
00:53:14Someone already contacted the university.
00:53:16Anne sent in your writing samples.
00:53:18They've rescheduled your interview for tomorrow.
00:53:20Wait, what, who?
00:53:21No idea, but it's all taken care of.
00:53:27What did you say?
00:53:28Nothing.
00:53:30I just...
00:53:32had a dream.
00:53:39Yeah.
00:53:42Did you?
00:53:44I got him!
00:53:45Oh, I knew it!
00:53:49I can't.
00:53:50Too bad Charles isn't here to watch you crush it.
00:53:53He's not here.
00:53:55Oh, you didn't know?
00:53:58Know what?
00:53:59He left.
00:54:00A few days ago, yeah.
00:54:02Everyone doesn't really know where he went.
00:54:04Honestly, Astra's been quieter without him.
00:54:07It's probably for the best.
00:54:08Come on.
00:54:08I hate him.
00:54:09I couldn't stay.
00:54:11I couldn't wait.
00:54:13I thought that you should know what I would have.
00:54:16And hang around.
00:54:18The summer I met Charles Kenward was loud.
00:54:22Chaotic.
00:54:24Unexpected.
00:54:27And with his absence.
00:54:29Come on!
00:54:31It ended quietly.
00:54:32You didn't have your eyes on me.
00:54:34Like summers always do.
00:54:37Like summers always do.
00:54:38Did you feel it from across the room?
00:54:43Did you feel a little enchanted?
00:54:49And joining us today, the decade's most unexpected literary phenomenon.
00:54:54Alice Keaton.
00:54:55Thank you for having me.
00:54:56Now, your words moved millions.
00:54:59They say your stories feel real.
00:55:02Especially the ones about love.
00:55:05Which brings us to the most obvious question.
00:55:07How's your dating life like these days?
00:55:10No comment.
00:55:11A little bird told me that the past four years has been just writing and working.
00:55:16Not even a single date.
00:55:18Let me guess a bird named Sherry.
00:55:19She caught me.
00:55:20Still no comment.
00:55:22Alright, alright.
00:55:23No matter what you say, you write love like someone who's lived it.
00:55:29If you're so real.
00:55:30Because once, I did.
00:55:31With someone who felt like chaos and clarity.
00:55:35And no one ever quite matched the light after that.
00:55:38And let's give it up for Alice Keaton one more time.
00:55:52Congratulations Alice.
00:55:53The numbers just came in.
00:55:55You broke your own record.
00:55:58That's incredible.
00:56:00We're thinking celebration, press, photos, maybe tonight.
00:56:04Actually, there's something I'd rather do.
00:56:08I'd like to meet with the person who believed in me first.
00:56:12My sponsor.
00:56:14You're sure?
00:56:15Yeah.
00:56:16Just once.
00:56:17Tonight, 7pm.
00:56:29Good evening.
00:56:33Good evening.
00:56:35Good evening.
00:56:37May I sit?
00:56:47Hi.
00:56:50Hi.
00:56:52You look well.
00:56:56And you look like you just stepped out of a GQ cover.
00:56:59You always did.
00:57:02You were expecting someone else.
00:57:05I was...
00:57:06Hoping.
00:57:08But I guess I always knew.
00:57:10I didn't come here to confuse you.
00:57:13Or to reopen anything.
00:57:16I just wanted to say congratulations.
00:57:20Oh.
00:57:24Didn't know you were still reading.
00:57:26You were rich enough not to do so.
00:57:30Always.
00:57:31Either way, your sponsorship started my career, so...
00:57:35No.
00:57:36No, you've...
00:57:37You earned everything.
00:57:41Every word.
00:57:43Every page.
00:57:45Every reader.
00:57:47That's what I came to say.
00:57:53It was good to see you again.
00:57:54I hope.
00:57:55Charles.
00:57:57Can you just...
00:58:00Wait a little longer?
00:58:07I think I knew it was you.
00:58:10There was one email.
00:58:13You said something.
00:58:15Felt familiar.
00:58:17Kinda had that...
00:58:18Rich asshole with a conscience energy.
00:58:21Very on brand.
00:58:23I should have anonymized my grammar.
00:58:25Too late.
00:58:25Your semicolon usage gave you away.
00:58:28Still the only girl I know who flirts through punctuation.
00:58:31Still the only guy I know who uses wilds unironically.
00:58:37You've changed.
00:58:40But...
00:58:41Not really.
00:58:43You haven't changed.
00:58:46But...
00:58:47Maybe you've grown into who you really were.
00:58:51Anyway.
00:58:52I wanted to say...
00:58:57And...
00:58:58Thanks for being here tonight.
00:59:00You didn't have to come.
00:59:02Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:07You didn't have to come.
00:59:09Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:31If you could go back, if you had the chance to do it all again, would you do anything differently?
00:59:42No.
00:59:47No.
00:59:51I see.
00:59:56I know my answer right now.
00:59:57I didn't have the power back then.
01:00:00Not enough to protect you.
01:00:02I couldn't watch you get crushed because of me.
01:00:05Because of my name.
01:00:07My family.
01:00:10I didn't want to be the reason you lost everything.
01:00:13So you just disappeared.
01:00:14Without a word.
01:00:18If you had the chance to see the world.
01:00:21Without me weighing you down.
01:00:23If you still chose me after that.
01:00:27That's...
01:00:29You keep saying you wanted to give me a choice.
01:00:32But you made a choice for me.
01:00:36Did it ever cross your mind that maybe...
01:00:41I would have chosen you anyway?
01:00:48I didn't think I was the smart choice.
01:00:51You weren't.
01:00:54But...
01:00:54I never claimed to be that smart.
01:01:04This is me.
01:01:06Right.
01:01:14I'm still mad at you, you know.
01:01:18I'm still in love with you, you know.
01:01:28Do you want to come in for a bit?
01:01:32You're asking your ex, who you haven't seen in four years, to come into your hotel at approximately 11pm.
01:01:41You were right.
01:01:43You never were that smart.
01:01:45You don't have to come.
01:01:47Don't tell me what I have to do.
01:01:49It's almost like you see.
01:01:53Where's things better go?
01:02:02Stop quoting yourself.
01:02:04I recycle.
01:02:05It saves energy.
01:02:08This feels wildly irresponsible.
01:02:10You sound like a disclaimer.
01:02:12You're the one who once called romance a distraction.
01:02:14I said that?
01:02:15Yeah.
01:02:16Before calling Wuthering Heights overrated.
01:02:18Still is.
01:02:20You're lucky you're a good kisser.
01:02:25That is cute to me.
01:02:27Don't you dare quote poetry.
01:02:29I wasn't going to.
01:02:30I'm here.
01:02:30I forgot all of it the day you left.
01:02:33Then shut up.
01:02:35And prove it.
01:02:41I still can't believe this is happening.
01:02:43I told you, they're either worst enemies or secretly married.
01:02:47And I told you, they're both.
01:03:10You're in my sight in my mind.
01:03:15I vow to always tell you the truth.
01:03:18Except for when you ask how your cooking was.
01:03:21Then I lie.
01:03:23Respectfully.
01:03:25I vow to keep choosing you.
01:03:28Loudly.
01:03:30Quietly.
01:03:31Always.
01:03:33Even when you forget to do the laundry.
01:03:37Is he actually good at this?
01:03:39I mean, he did beat her at sarcasm.
01:03:45I vow to argue with you at least twice a week.
01:03:47Especially over Shakespeare.
01:03:50I vow to write you into every story.
01:03:53Even when I say I didn't.
01:03:55You will always be part of my life.
01:03:58If she quotes Austin in this toast, I'm out.
01:04:01No you're not. You're going to cry harder.
01:04:21I walk up to the smell of roses.
01:04:25I can't believe you picked Paris.
01:04:28Such a cliche honeymoon destination
01:04:31Guard your phone relax. Just don't dress like a walking inheritance
01:04:36You are not wearing that on our honeymoon
01:04:43Please Alice go change don't tell me what I have to do
01:04:51No
01:04:52No, no, no, no that is not an invitation to do not take off these clothes
01:04:57You look much better without them
01:05:04To the ones who loved in silence in chaos and chapters
01:05:10You will find your way home
01:05:27Come on then
