00:00:47I don't know how you can be so calm.
00:00:50If it was me, I'd be vicking myself.
00:00:53Jenny, if you can hear me, you need to know.
00:00:56This wish you're about to make, it's not what you think.
00:00:58There's terms and there's conditions.
00:01:01I don't exactly know what they mean.
00:01:03He's a trickster.
00:01:06Him.
00:01:07It twists what you say.
00:01:10So you've got to be careful.
00:01:13Jenny.
00:01:14Jenny!
00:01:20I'm sorry, Jenny.
00:01:23It looks like you're the last one because I don't exist anymore.
00:01:29DeCampus fucked that up.
00:01:32I wish for invisibility.
00:01:35Therefore, I am invisible.
00:01:41Jenny, if you can hear me right now, please listen.
00:01:46Don't do what I did.
00:01:48You made one statement.
00:01:50Don't be ambiguous.
00:01:52One point.
00:01:54Don't do what I did.
00:01:56Please.
00:01:57Don't!
00:02:04Come on.
00:02:06Where are you?
00:02:08I know you're here somewhere, you sneaky motherfucker.
00:02:21Good things come to those that wait.
00:02:25I've saved you for last.
00:02:30Are you afraid?
00:02:32I'm not afraid of you.
00:02:34Good.
00:02:35There's no need to be scared.
00:02:38I've come to fulfil your desires.
00:02:43I don't have any desires.
00:02:45I just want this to end.
00:02:48You want this to be over?
00:02:51You need to say the wish.
00:02:54I wish.
00:02:56I wish that this was all over.
00:02:59You wish that all this come to an end?
00:03:03I wish that all this come to an end.
00:03:08Done.
00:03:19Sorry.
00:03:20Please don't be mad at me for what it is to be over.
00:03:22Jenny, no.
00:03:24No!
00:03:31No!
00:03:33No!
00:05:04You look like you're scared.
00:05:06Getting physical tells me you're scared.
00:05:08You'd better lawyer up because I'm going to take you for every penny you have.
00:05:12I'll let you into a little secret, should I?
00:05:14I ain't scared of anything.
00:05:16Not your lawyer.
00:05:17And certainly not a little piss-in like you.
00:05:20Now, fuck off.
00:05:21You haven't heard the last of me.
00:05:23I'm going to sue you.
00:05:28Oi, Gav.
00:05:30Getting here, I haven't got all day.
00:05:42All right.
00:05:46That's your literary agent.
00:05:48I have to say, I didn't like them.
00:05:52There was something amateurish about them.
00:05:55After your first book, I was expecting more.
00:05:58That's why I said you need to go back to uni.
00:06:00You need more experience.
00:06:01Yes.
00:06:02I took you advice and I've learnt so much since enrolling.
00:06:06Come on, Zach.
00:06:07I put so much work into those.
00:06:08It took me ages.
00:06:12It's not just me, love, okay?
00:06:13The publishers, they want something else too.
00:06:15Your first book, Storm Prophecy, that was bold.
00:06:18It was visceral.
00:06:19It was manly, even.
00:06:21I loved it and so did the publishers.
00:06:23That's what they want more of.
00:06:26This is too tame.
00:06:27It's heartfelt and true.
00:06:30Look, sometimes true stories, they don't sell.
00:06:34You need to find the drama or make it up.
00:06:37This one was very personal to me.
00:06:39I don't care.
00:06:41Nobody wants to be led down a long widened row
00:06:43to find nothing but darkness at the end of it.
00:06:45That's life.
00:06:47We're not into the business of finding those niche markets
00:06:49where readers want to be depressed whilst reading.
00:06:52There is a market for those.
00:06:54What about Ned Vizzini's It's Kind of a Funny Story
00:06:57or Ellen Hopkins' Impulse Michael Scott?
00:07:00Suicide knows.
00:07:02As I said, we're not into those niche markets, okay?
00:07:05That's not what we market you as.
00:07:07Some writers have the clout to write about whatever they want
00:07:09when they've got an established fan base, but you're new.
00:07:11And readers, they want to know what they're going to get into
00:07:13when they recognise a name.
00:07:17Look, maybe revisit this when you've done the free book deal
00:07:21with what the publishers want, okay?
00:07:23But for now, it's a pass.
00:07:27Well, don't take this person, all right?
00:07:29It's just business.
00:07:32I know.
00:07:37There's always the option to do the trilogy.
00:07:40No, I don't want to be tied down to a series
00:07:42and never accomplish anything.
00:07:44Look, I'm not pressuring you into anything, all right?
00:07:46But this is the option our buyers are barking for.
00:07:49And also, the subject of your first book was a hit with the kids,
00:07:51so think along those lines, all right?
00:07:53Urban myths, they sell.
00:08:01Good morning, Mum.
00:08:08Good morning, Mum.
00:08:16That's better.
00:08:19So, I had my meeting with Zach today.
00:08:22You know, my agent.
00:08:28He wasn't very impressed.
00:08:33I know.
00:08:34We spent so long on those as well.
00:08:38It would have been so good to be recognised as a serious author.
00:08:43But he didn't think a change of style was the best course of action
00:08:46for me right now as a newly published author.
00:08:51I understand.
00:08:53It's how the business runs.
00:08:58But it still hurts to be told your work isn't good enough.
00:09:07So, I guess we'll start from scratch.
00:09:23Oh, hi, Gabby.
00:09:24Hello.
00:09:25I didn't know you were here.
00:09:26Yeah, you know.
00:09:27Just writing.
00:09:28That's good.
00:09:29Someone loves hearing about your stories.
00:09:31I hope so.
00:09:33You did say to keep talking to her.
00:09:35I did.
00:09:36She's in there somewhere.
00:09:38And hearing your voice is good.
00:09:40How is she?
00:09:41Everything's fine.
00:09:43She's a strong woman.
00:09:44She just can't wake up.
00:09:46She'll get there.
00:09:48All it takes is for that miracle synapse to trigger the right sequence
00:09:51and then she'll be skipping on out of here.
00:09:54Yeah, I'm sure you're right.
00:09:56Don't lose hope.
00:09:57I just wish I knew when to expect it.
00:10:00All the vitals are strong.
00:10:02We'll keep monitoring her and let you know if anything changes.
00:10:04She's connected to the hospital remotely
00:10:06so I can let you know if anything changes even when I'm not here.
00:10:11I like coming here and seeing you.
00:10:16So, what are you writing now?
00:10:18Uh, something new.
00:10:20Oh, what happened to the thing you were writing last week?
00:10:23Change my mind.
00:10:25That's a shame.
00:10:27Still, I guess that's what an artist is like,
00:10:29always moving from one project to the next.
00:10:32Yeah, something like that.
00:10:34I look forward to reading it.
00:10:36I'll send you a copy once it's done.
00:10:38I like that.
00:10:38I love a good read.
00:10:40Breaks the monotony of line.
00:10:49Come on, Mum.
00:10:51Just wake up.
00:11:04Hey, I'm really proud of you now.
00:11:07For what?
00:11:08I didn't do anything.
00:11:09It takes Gus to do something new.
00:11:11You might not have liked it,
00:11:13but you can still write it
00:11:15and then publish it after your contract is up.
00:11:19Hey.
00:11:20I love you, you know.
00:11:22I love you too.
00:11:28Hey, all.
00:11:30Sorry.
00:11:31I'm late.
00:11:32Hey.
00:11:33How'd the audition go?
00:11:35I love you too.
00:11:36Okay.
00:11:39I don't know if I've got it though.
00:11:43Oh.
00:11:45By the way,
00:11:46the painting for your mum's almost finished.
00:11:47It should be ready for her 80th birthday.
00:11:49It's hot.
00:11:50You're such a sweetheart.
00:11:52My mum will be made up with it.
00:11:54Before we start talking about this week's book,
00:11:56I think we'd all like to hear from Gabby
00:11:58about her meeting yesterday.
00:12:00Well,
00:12:01it didn't go as well as expected.
00:12:04What?
00:12:04Why?
00:12:06I don't know.
00:12:07It just wasn't what they were looking for.
00:12:10Are you so proud of this one?
00:12:12I know.
00:12:14It was just a bit too ambitious for a new writer.
00:12:16But
00:12:18it's okay.
00:12:19Don't worry.
00:12:20I've got a new one I'm writing.
00:12:22Do tell.
00:12:24Well,
00:12:25basically,
00:12:26I found this incident in the news
00:12:27about a group of teenagers
00:12:29who performed a ritual
00:12:31to conjure up a djinn.
00:12:33What's a djinn?
00:12:35Like,
00:12:35a genie.
00:12:36A genie?
00:12:38Yeah.
00:12:38Like an Aladdin.
00:12:40One that grants wishes.
00:12:43Exactly.
00:12:46Genies aren't real.
00:12:48Yeah,
00:12:49I know that,
00:12:49but
00:12:49it'd make for a more interesting story.
00:12:52Is that what your agent
00:12:53wants you to write?
00:12:57Well,
00:12:58no,
00:12:58not exactly.
00:12:59He wants me to do a follow-up
00:13:00of Storm Prophecy,
00:13:01but
00:13:01I know I've got a three-book deal with him.
00:13:03It's just,
00:13:05I don't want to waste it
00:13:06on a Storm Prophecy trilogy.
00:13:07I've got,
00:13:08you know,
00:13:09I just want to,
00:13:10I'm an artist,
00:13:11I want to explore
00:13:12and discover my art.
00:13:14No disrespect or anything,
00:13:16like,
00:13:16okay,
00:13:17calling you an idiot was,
00:13:18but I would kill to have a three-book deal
00:13:20with an agent.
00:13:21You've got to walk
00:13:22before you can fly
00:13:23and
00:13:23it's pretty clear
00:13:24you can't see that.
00:13:26I just think you should
00:13:27play the game a little bit.
00:13:33Well,
00:13:34the junior ideas are a spell.
00:13:37How much have you written?
00:13:38Well,
00:13:39nothing yet,
00:13:40but I've done a lot of research
00:13:41and
00:13:41I've got a basic plot outline
00:13:43and I just need to
00:13:43flesh it out.
00:13:45Better write me into this one.
00:13:47Then,
00:13:47when they come to the casting
00:13:48for the movie version,
00:13:49you can suggest me.
00:13:52And me.
00:13:53Don't worry,
00:13:54you'll all be in it.
00:13:58Where are you going?
00:13:59We're about to start.
00:14:00To the toilet.
00:14:02Is that okay?
00:14:05Okay.
00:14:06Don't be long.
00:14:07Stop allowing.
00:14:16I'm an artist.
00:14:17I want to discover
00:14:19and explore
00:14:19and explore my art.
00:14:22Bitch.
00:15:02not so funny.
00:15:04Gabby just made her funny.
00:15:07I'm pitchy now.
00:15:09Forget that's talking about the book.
00:15:11I mean,
00:15:11that is why we're here.
00:15:12Oh,
00:15:13I just want Gabby
00:15:13to make another funny.
00:15:14I just want to say.
00:15:15Okay.
00:15:16I'm going to be here.
00:15:29I'm going to be here.
00:15:31I'm going to be here.
00:15:31I'm going to be here.
00:15:32I'm going to be here.
00:15:32I'm going to be here.
00:15:35I'm going to be here.
00:15:38I'm going to be here.
00:15:40I'm going to be here.
00:16:06I don't know.
00:16:08It's a winner.
00:16:10It's interesting. I'll give you that. What's the inspiration?
00:16:14Well, I researched some local urban myths in the area and found this incident that happened
00:16:18right here. They call it the suicide pact. And I found an interview with a single survivor
00:16:24who claims he conjured up a gin and one by one they succumb to their desires.
00:16:29We can't call it a gin because readers won't know what that is. So we're going to stick
00:16:33with the genie. Is this biographical? Because we don't do biographers.
00:16:38Yeah, that's fine. We can just say it's based on true events to incorporate more interest.
00:16:44Oh. Maybe interview the survivor?
00:16:46She died. Broke her neck.
00:16:49Oh, so you're going to go with suicide pact angle?
00:16:52No, I'm going to go with the genie idea. I want to sprinkle as much realism in it as possible.
00:16:57I hate to burst your bubble off, but genies, they ain't real.
00:17:00Wasn't it you that said you have to find the drama or make it up? Adding the genie into
00:17:05the mix will just make for a better story.
00:17:07The suicide pact angle's better. Unless you can prove genies are real.
00:17:12Well, there's only one way to do that. I'm guessing I'm going to have to perform the ritual.
00:17:17To conjure a genie? Good luck with that.
00:17:20Well, I was hoping that you would come say hello yourself. If nothing happens, then no harm, no foul.
00:17:27But if something does, then maybe you'll consider my take on this story?
00:17:32No, I've got better things to do in my time. Besides, I don't believe in ghouls, ghosts and the afterlife.
00:17:39You sound scared.
00:17:41I ain't scared of anything.
00:17:43Really?
00:17:46Nice try, love. No.
00:17:50Okay. How about this? If nothing happens, then I will drop it.
00:17:56And I'll do the trilogy.
00:17:58Yeah? You're on.
00:18:02Deal.
00:18:06And when nothing happens, you stop pussyfooting around and you give the buyers what they want.
00:18:10The Storm Prophecy Trilogy.
00:18:20Why are we doing this?
00:18:22Because we're friends and friends help one another.
00:18:26Do you think Princess Gabby's going to remember us when she makes it big time?
00:18:29Yeah. She's not like that. You can go if you want, but for me, I'm staying. This is going to
00:18:35be a good test for me as an actor.
00:18:37Yeah, and me too. It'll be like theatre. We need to make this really convincing, like an evil spirit that's
00:18:42actually possessing us. Not so much the exorcist or anything, more creepy, like Roseberry's baby. I'm so excited.
00:18:48Me too. It's nice to be on the same page as a fellow actor.
00:18:53Oh, this is going to be so embarrassing.
00:18:56It'll be fun. And imagine this actually works and the genie turns up. What do you wish for?
00:19:01Genies don't exist.
00:19:02Yeah, but what if?
00:19:05I'd wish for this moment to be over.
00:19:07Oh my God.
00:19:08Come on, Melania. Lighten up. It's going to be fun.
00:19:13Yeah, you know what, you're right. I'm off. Enjoy your little seance.
00:19:19Hey guys, are you ready? Do you need a plan?
00:19:22Everyone except Melania, who's leaving by the way.
00:19:28Oh, Gabby.
00:19:30Zach, you're early.
00:19:31Yeah, I've got to be somewhere for ten.
00:19:33Okay, everyone, this is Zach, my agent.
00:19:37What agency does he work for? MI6?
00:19:40Well yeah, I used to be in the armour of, but I kept up the regime.
00:19:45So, this is the Scooby gang.
00:19:48I'm Melania.
00:19:50Yeah, pleasure to meet you.
00:19:52So, now we're going to get this shit show on the road.
00:19:58Okay, everyone. Take a deep breath.
00:20:01And relax.
00:20:37Now each of you.
00:21:02I'm going to get a deep breath.
00:21:08Okay.
00:21:24Okay, now we hold hands.
00:21:36Close your eyes and I will summon the djinn.
00:21:50V'enijin Dammehim Volitete Emine.
00:21:55Veni jinn damihim voletete mim.
00:22:25Veni jinn damihim voletete mim.
00:23:09Veni jinn damihim voletete mim.
00:23:21Veni jinn damihim voletete mim.
00:23:24Veni jinn damihim voletete mim.
00:23:28Veni jinn damihim voletete mim.
00:23:59Veni jinn damihim voletete mim.
00:24:09You have one wish, Gabrielle, I shall return in due time, you consider what you want.
00:24:47Gabby! Gabby! Gabby!
00:24:53What happened?
00:24:54You're shaking.
00:24:56Did you see it?
00:25:02What did you do?
00:25:04What do you mean?
00:25:07How did you do that?
00:25:09I didn't do anything.
00:25:12Have you drugged me?
00:25:15No!
00:25:21Well played, Gabby. I can see right through this little stunt. Okay?
00:25:25What? What do you mean?
00:25:27I mean, you've lost. Get started on the next stone prophecy, alright? I want it on me desk, first drafted
00:25:32within the next three months.
00:25:34No!
00:25:35Yeah. Evening, ladies and gents.
00:25:37No, wait! Wait! Where are you going?
00:25:45What the fuck just happened?
00:25:52Did you see it?
00:25:57London?
00:25:59I don't know what I saw.
00:26:03What have we done?
00:26:13Wait! Where are you going?
00:26:16I'm going home!
00:26:18We need to talk about this!
00:26:19Talk about this!
00:26:21You've just evoked something evil, you stupid little bitch! Why the hell would I stay here?
00:26:38Mr. Zack! Wait!
00:26:42Mr. Zack!
00:26:45Wait!
00:26:55Mr. Zack!
00:26:55I've been positive, but I can see right through this rouge, alright? So don't bother going on.
00:27:00But you? You're not a bad actress.
00:27:04I'm not an actress.
00:27:05Yeah, yeah.
00:27:07Look, here's my business card, alright? Take it. I'm thinking about taking on actors.
00:27:13Okay, but do you want to maybe go get a drink? I know a nice little pub just down the
00:27:18road.
00:27:19I'll tell you what. Why don't you give me a call? In about ten years.
00:27:26I'm twenty-five.
00:27:27Yeah, yeah. And that's what they all say.
00:27:46Just on line, do you have three months to deliver the first draft of the follow-up to his gone
00:27:51property?
00:27:52I've already told the publisher that that's the route we're going. By the way, nice try last night, love. Laters.
00:27:57Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.
00:28:07Oi!
00:28:31I've come to fulfill your wishes, Maloney.
00:28:38Are you real?
00:28:40Yes.
00:28:41What would you desire?
00:28:45No, I don't want anything from you.
00:28:49You're not real.
00:29:08I just want to be noticed by men and not dismissed.
00:29:14You want to be noticed?
00:29:16Yeah.
00:29:20Done.
00:29:38Do you need a hand with those?
00:29:41No, thank you.
00:30:02I don't want to do this.
00:30:06I gamble and I lost, Mum.
00:30:09Everything I touch turns to shit.
00:30:16I don't really want to talk about it.
00:30:27Hey, everyone.
00:30:28Hey, Gabby.
00:30:30What's going on?
00:30:35Hello, Gabby.
00:30:39Hey, Gabby.
00:30:40Oh, my...
00:30:42What's happened?
00:30:44What?
00:30:45It's a push-up bra.
00:30:46Really?
00:30:48Yeah, and I went shopping and bought some new clothes.
00:30:50That's all.
00:30:52Okay.
00:30:55Hey, everyone.
00:30:56Sorry I'm...
00:30:58Uh...
00:30:59Uh...
00:30:59Late.
00:31:01What is wrong with everyone?
00:31:03It's a push-up bra.
00:31:12What the fuck was that?
00:31:13I had boobs.
00:31:15That was no push-up bra.
00:31:17Really?
00:31:18You were gawking.
00:31:19What?
00:31:19No.
00:31:20You were.
00:31:21Your tongue was hanging out and everything.
00:31:22You just caught me by surprise.
00:31:26Do you think...
00:31:27Do you think it was the genie?
00:31:30Gabs, I really don't want to talk about that.
00:31:32The whole thing freaked me out.
00:31:33But we all experienced it.
00:31:35We...
00:31:36We tapped into something we shouldn't have.
00:31:40Yeah, I know, but...
00:31:41It was real.
00:31:43So maybe we should just ask her if she used the genie.
00:31:47We can't.
00:31:49Just promise me you won't use that genie.
00:31:53Even if it offers you everything in the world.
00:31:56Promise me.
00:31:59Okay.
00:32:01Yeah.
00:32:02Yeah, I promise.
00:32:03I got lucky.
00:32:05I just want to move on and forget about this.
00:32:08You're right.
00:32:09Okay.
00:32:10Okay.
00:32:11Okay.
00:32:12Let's go.
00:32:24I'm good to go.
00:32:27I know.
00:32:27But it's not a good day.
00:32:27Do you knowания?
00:32:28Well...
00:32:31Do you know...
00:32:33No.
00:32:34I can't do it.
00:32:36Do you know...
00:32:38Five, six.
00:32:41One, two, three, four, five, six.
00:33:01What the fuck?
00:33:03Oh shit!
00:33:06Do you not like what you see in the mirror?
00:33:15Is this...
00:33:17Is this really me?
00:33:22No.
00:33:23I don't want anything from you.
00:33:26Shame.
00:33:27I'll be the only one.
00:33:30This is out of my gifts.
00:33:34What do you mean?
00:33:35The rest have been granted their wishes.
00:33:39The rest?
00:33:42Elonia.
00:33:43She's happy now.
00:33:46Would you like to be happy?
00:33:50Yeah.
00:33:52Yeah, I do.
00:33:52And say the words.
00:33:55And what you see...
00:33:57Shall be yours.
00:34:02I wish...
00:34:05I wish everyone admired me.
00:34:10Done.
00:34:38The Earl of Doncaster.
00:34:42Told you I knew my geography.
00:34:44I had no doubt, Gabs.
00:34:48It's alright, Sam.
00:34:49Say hi for me.
00:34:50Come grab that.
00:34:51Hey Sam.
00:34:51Hey Gabby.
00:34:53Have you seen your thoughts?
00:34:54No.
00:34:55He was supposed to stop in and give me this new book for next week.
00:34:58If he hasn't shown it, then he's not answering his phone.
00:35:01That's strange.
00:35:03I saw him last night.
00:35:05Did you check his door?
00:35:07Yeah, but...
00:35:10That's weird.
00:35:13I'm sure it's nothing.
00:35:14I just thought you might have seen him.
00:35:15No.
00:35:17Gabs.
00:35:18Gabs, have you seen this?
00:35:26Sam?
00:35:28Turn to Channel 5.
00:35:31I'm called.
00:35:33Police, I'm called.
00:35:35This is me.
00:35:45What's going on?
00:35:47Nothing good.
00:35:50What's going on?
00:36:02Nothing good.
00:36:07Landon?
00:36:08Hey.
00:36:08The dinks that Todd sent them left telling him that he was quitting all his courses.
00:36:12When they cleared out his dorm, they found a letter confirming his flight to Jamaica.
00:36:16But that just doesn't make any sense.
00:36:19Todd just wouldn't leave without telling us.
00:36:22I know, I know.
00:36:24Look.
00:36:25I've got to go. I'll see you later, alright?
00:36:27Okay.
00:36:40Hello again, Gabrielle.
00:36:44You...
00:36:45Have you had enough time to think about what you want?
00:36:49What have you done with Todd?
00:36:51Me?
00:36:53A genie has only one function.
00:36:55To grant people their wishes.
00:37:02What did he wish for?
00:37:04That's between him and me.
00:37:07All I can tell you is that he got what he wanted.
00:37:11I know you did something to him.
00:37:13He wouldn't just leave like that.
00:37:15Wouldn't he?
00:37:17Success doesn't change you.
00:37:20It only brings out your true self.
00:37:23You know what that's like, don't you, Gabby?
00:37:26Your first attempt at writing a novel was a big success.
00:37:29So much so.
00:37:31It brought out the pretentiousness in you.
00:37:34You sucked up the adulation.
00:37:37And it brought you out with the selfishness in you.
00:37:41Your true nature.
00:37:44You knew Melania was insecure.
00:37:47Only jealous of you, Amanda.
00:37:51She's...
00:37:52She was in pain.
00:37:54She was in pain.
00:37:56Yet you did nothing to her mother.
00:37:59She's happy now, by the way.
00:38:03I'm not falling for this.
00:38:05You're evil.
00:38:07And you've come to this conclusion based on what?
00:38:11The way I look?
00:38:13Of course.
00:38:14Everything that's not aesthetically pleasing
00:38:17has to be evil, right?
00:38:20The good guys wear white.
00:38:22The bad guys wear black.
00:38:25Oh, Hollywood.
00:38:34I don't...
00:38:35I don't want my wish.
00:38:38Yes.
00:38:39A healthy bank balance.
00:38:41A good-looking boyfriend.
00:38:43Blessed with locks.
00:38:46Maybe you're right.
00:38:47Why would you need me?
00:38:50You only wanted to fool your agent
00:38:53into getting what you wanted.
00:38:56You don't need my wish.
00:38:58You have what you want.
00:39:00But others could benefit from your wish.
00:39:04Don't you think?
00:39:21Mum?
00:39:23Mum?
00:39:25Mum?
00:39:34Mum!
00:39:35Riel!
00:39:38Mum!
00:39:40What's up, Mum?
00:39:42Is really you?
00:39:43Of course it's me.
00:39:44Who else were you expecting?
00:39:46Oh, my God.
00:39:46Oh, you've changed since yesterday.
00:39:52I...
00:39:53I have so much to tell you.
00:39:55Mrs. Darcy!
00:39:57The doctors have done all the tests and I'm fine.
00:40:00I just don't get it.
00:40:02How was I asleep for two years?
00:40:04I don't know.
00:40:06Hey, Gabs.
00:40:07What's the good...
00:40:07Hello.
00:40:08What's this?
00:40:09Mum?
00:40:10This is my boyfriend.
00:40:12Landon.
00:40:13Landon's my mum.
00:40:14Aurora.
00:40:15Mrs. Darcy, hi.
00:40:17I can see why you like him.
00:40:19Plenty of space to fill the gaps with your talking.
00:40:21Hey.
00:40:23I hope that's not changed.
00:40:24No, it's not changed.
00:40:26Which reminds me, I have some more news I need to tell you.
00:40:28Oh, I can't wait to hear.
00:40:30Do you want a cup of tea?
00:40:31That'd be lovely.
00:40:33And then you can fill me in on everything I've missed.
00:40:34Yeah.
00:40:36Yeah, I'll come with you guys.
00:40:48Oh my god.
00:40:50I know, she's awake.
00:40:52But how?
00:40:53What happened?
00:40:54What did the doctors say?
00:40:55I don't know.
00:40:56They just said it would happen.
00:40:57Just a matter of time.
00:40:59This is incredible.
00:41:01I know.
00:41:02I'm still reeling from it.
00:41:04What's all I expected?
00:41:07Yeah, well, Melanie said it would just be a matter of time and today's the day.
00:41:11Why today?
00:41:12What changed?
00:41:13I don't know.
00:41:14She just needed the right stimulus at the right time.
00:41:17So suddenly, no atrophy or disorientation?
00:41:20It's like it never happened.
00:41:22Yeah.
00:41:23It just seems strange.
00:41:25This is an amazing revelation and you're questioning it.
00:41:29No, you're right.
00:41:32I'm sorry.
00:41:33I'm just curious.
00:41:34Good.
00:41:36This is good news.
00:42:18Hey Sam.
00:42:19No, not tonight.
00:42:21Maybe never.
00:42:24Can't you see she's a selfish bitch?
00:42:28No, look.
00:42:29I can't tonight anyway because I've got a date.
00:42:31Yeah?
00:42:32That fit guy in economics class.
00:42:34Yep.
00:42:35Get this.
00:42:35His name is Artemis and his dad is like Bruce Wayne Rich.
00:42:40Yeah.
00:42:41I know.
00:42:41Looks like I've looked out there.
00:42:45Shit.
00:42:45I've got to go.
00:42:46I'm going to be late.
00:42:47Alright.
00:42:47Bye.
00:42:47Bye.
00:42:52What the fuck?
00:43:01Melania isn't coming.
00:43:02She's got a date.
00:43:03A date?
00:43:04Good for her.
00:43:07She hates you.
00:43:08You do know that right?
00:43:10She's just jealous of my success.
00:43:12Yeah.
00:43:13It's not my fault that my book has sold millions.
00:43:18This is a bit pathetic, isn't it?
00:43:22And Sam, you're tired.
00:43:25Shall we just reschedule?
00:43:27No.
00:43:27No, it's okay.
00:43:28I'm good.
00:43:29Are you still having nightmares?
00:43:33Yeah.
00:43:35It's always the same guy.
00:43:37This figure in black, chasing me.
00:43:41And I can never see his face.
00:43:45I've done the whole therapy thing and that didn't work.
00:43:48But recently, it hasn't been as bad.
00:43:51I mean, the dreams are still keeping me up at night.
00:43:53But now, I'm dreaming about this new guy.
00:43:55And he is so beautiful.
00:43:57I mean, he trumps Brad Pitt any day.
00:44:00You're a dream guy, eh?
00:44:02Do you get up to anything?
00:44:04Whatever do you mean, Gabby?
00:44:06Well, put it this way.
00:44:08I'm constantly having to change my bed sheets
00:44:10and I'm running out of washing powder.
00:44:11Oh my god.
00:44:15Hey.
00:44:18Did Gabby tell you the good news?
00:44:20No.
00:44:21What's up?
00:44:22My mum, she is awake.
00:44:25Oh my god!
00:44:27That's amazing!
00:44:30Why didn't you stop with that?
00:44:32I was just waiting for Melania to arrive.
00:44:36This is great.
00:44:38Yeah.
00:44:39She wished for it and it came true.
00:44:41You did?
00:44:43You made a wish to the genie and it came true.
00:44:45No.
00:44:46He's joking.
00:44:50It's true.
00:44:52How else can you explain it?
00:44:55Melania's boobs.
00:44:57Todd's rich now.
00:44:58With his world famous painting.
00:45:00And your mum, Aurora?
00:45:03Suddenly out of her coma.
00:45:04I didn't wish it and nor did Todd.
00:45:08Didn't he?
00:45:11Todd's got a bit of an ego.
00:45:13But he'd never leave without saying goodbye.
00:45:16Maybe Todd was right.
00:45:17Maybe it is a gift.
00:45:18Perhaps we should use it.
00:45:19For fuck's sake, it's not.
00:45:21And you shouldn't have made that wish.
00:45:22It's not what happened.
00:45:25For fuck's sake, where are you going?
00:45:27Away from you!
00:45:32Hey.
00:45:33She'll come around.
00:45:35Look, let's hit the pub.
00:45:37It's been a long time since you and me got pissed.
00:45:41You know what Sam?
00:45:44It's not a bad idea.
00:46:17No!
00:46:24It looks like Mr. Broadbent's signature is on the last page, and I'm actually the signature on the first page.
00:46:29this may be a problem for the sense.
00:46:31Legally we can make a case on the difference,
00:46:33but if they can test this, then we might be liable.
00:46:37But I think you have a strong case,
00:46:38and if necessary, draw it out for a long time,
00:46:41forcing his voice to settle.
00:46:43We've both known Mr. Brogan's client
00:46:44won't go to distance.
00:46:46I know it's all there.
00:46:47I'll email him with my intentions,
00:46:49and knowing him, he'll drop Mr. Brogan's
00:46:50I can't say so, or explain to his clients
00:46:53that he has to settle.
00:46:54And that's when you offer something small,
00:46:56backing him into a corner.
00:46:59Bernard, you're worth every penny.
00:47:03Get to work and keep me in the loop, alright?
00:47:05What'll do?
00:47:17What's going on?
00:47:22Who are you, and how the fuck did you get in here?
00:47:26Oh, it's you again.
00:47:28Is this one of Gabby's stunts?
00:47:34For the last time, I'm not interested, alright?
00:47:35I'm not going to change my mind.
00:47:37This is ridiculous.
00:47:41Are you going to go, or do I have to call security?
00:47:45What is this duty, sire?
00:47:48I want you to get the fuck out of this office.
00:47:52What is your wish?
00:47:54No, I'll do you a deal, alright?
00:47:56Tell Gabrielle she's fired,
00:47:57and we're going to buy her out of her contract,
00:47:59we're only going to pay her off.
00:48:00This is harassment.
00:48:03Oh, oh, a clever dick.
00:48:05Oh, so, I tell you what,
00:48:07I make a wish, and then you're going to fuck off?
00:48:12Alright.
00:48:13I want to be famous,
00:48:14like those kids on the internet famous.
00:48:18Happy now?
00:48:23Dang.
00:48:33I don't know.
00:49:09Hey, remember me? I guess I'm your 11 o'clock now, huh?
00:49:14Asshole!
00:49:14Leave it up.
00:49:20Who makes a bitch?
00:49:21I'm your 11 o'clock now.
00:49:50What's in this?
00:49:55That sack?
00:49:57No, no.
00:49:58You have something here.
00:50:01What?
00:50:02What?
00:50:04Come on, did you see it?
00:50:06There.
00:50:08See what?
00:50:12Come on, I know you see it.
00:50:13It's the genie.
00:50:15Come on, Gabs, it's the genie.
00:50:18I don't want to talk about that.
00:50:20This is Zach's funeral.
00:50:21Are you that insensitive?
00:50:23Gabby, you have to understand.
00:50:24I get that it's Zach's funeral, but me and you, that's my priority.
00:50:28What is...
00:50:28What is going on with you?
00:50:30I don't want to talk about the fucking genie.
00:50:33Why?
00:50:34Because you use it to bring your mum back?
00:50:36What?
00:50:38You did, Gabs, I know you did.
00:50:40Come on, just please talk to me.
00:50:42I'm done with this.
00:50:45Gabby, Todd's gone.
00:50:46And I'm pretty sure something terrible happened to him.
00:50:49Samantha visited Melania and she looks awful.
00:50:52And now this?
00:50:53A madman killed your fucking agent.
00:50:56It can't be a coincidence.
00:50:59Wishing for what you want going against nature?
00:51:01There has to be consequences.
00:51:04Be careful what you wish for, Gabby.
00:51:15For fuck's sake.
00:51:18Oh God.
00:51:34What is your desire?
00:51:37This is some sort of trick, right?
00:51:41Oh, Samantha.
00:51:43The brothers have been granted their wishes.
00:51:49What about my friend Todd?
00:51:51I'm not allowed to discuss the brothers' wishes.
00:51:58What I can tell you.
00:52:02He is smiling.
00:52:06His wish has been granted.
00:52:13You do now!
00:52:14What the hell?
00:52:20I...
00:52:23I want to meet the man in my dreams.
00:52:25And I want him to stay with me.
00:52:28To hold after us part sort of thing.
00:52:33Done.
00:53:11I want to meet the sister.
00:53:15I know you.
00:53:17Sorry, yeah.
00:53:18You sold me a book last month.
00:53:20The one your friend wrote.
00:53:21Oh my God, yeah.
00:53:23I completely forgot about that.
00:53:26Okay.
00:53:29I just wanted to let you know that I started reading it
00:53:31and it's really good.
00:53:32I just wanted to say thank you.
00:53:35I'm glad.
00:53:36She really is good.
00:53:37Yeah, she really is.
00:53:39There's actually something else I wanted to ask you.
00:53:42And I'm sorry if this is being a little bit forward,
00:53:44but are you free this evening?
00:53:46Free?
00:53:47Yeah, I was wondering if you wanted to join me for a drink.
00:53:51Oh.
00:53:53I'm sorry.
00:53:54It's just last time we met, I really enjoyed talking to you.
00:53:58And if you're not busy...
00:54:00I know, you look busy.
00:54:02Don't worry about it.
00:54:03I could do a drink.
00:54:05That would be nice.
00:54:15Well, we've had a few too many tonight, haven't we?
00:54:17I know.
00:54:18I can't count them.
00:54:1920.
00:54:27This is really good.
00:54:30We should get one more.
00:54:31Can we get one more?
00:54:34We should get one more.
00:54:39We should get one more.
00:54:41We should get one more.
00:54:44We should get one more.
00:54:48We should get one more.
00:54:49We should get one more.
00:54:50We should get one more.
00:54:50We should get one more.
00:54:51We should get one more.
00:54:52We should get one more.
00:54:52We should get one more.
00:54:53We should get one more.
00:54:53We should get one more.
00:54:53We should get one more.
00:54:54We should get one more.
00:54:55We should get one more.
00:54:55We should get one more.
00:55:01I don't know.
00:55:31I don't know.
00:56:15I don't know.
00:56:16I don't know.
00:56:16I don't know.
00:56:35I don't know.
00:56:39I don't know.
00:56:45I don't know.
00:56:46I don't know.
00:57:12I don't know.
00:57:22I don't know.
00:57:36I don't know.
00:57:39I don't know.
00:57:41I don't know.
00:57:42I don't know.
00:58:16I don't know.
00:58:24I don't know.
00:58:34I don't know.
00:58:38I don't know.
00:58:39I don't know.
00:58:39I don't know.
00:58:44I don't know.
00:58:44I don't know.
00:58:44I don't know.
00:58:45I don't know.
00:59:12I don't know.
00:59:13I don't know.
00:59:41I don't know.
00:59:43There's some ways we can make everything right.
00:59:45Which are?
00:59:46We can trick the genie.
00:59:49We can wish it to be set free.
00:59:52Or there's another one.
00:59:54The master.
00:59:56The master can revoke their wish.
00:59:59And who's the master?
01:00:02I'm guessing...
01:00:03I mean, I'm guessing you are.
01:00:05I mean, you summoned it.
01:00:07So you want me to take back my wish
01:00:08so everything can go back to normal?
01:00:10I mean, not necessarily, but...
01:00:12No!
01:00:12You'll have to use your wish to set it free.
01:00:15But if you...
01:00:16But if you set it free,
01:00:18will that reverse everyone's wishes?
01:00:20And my mum goes back into a coma?
01:00:21I don't know, Gabs.
01:00:23Well, I don't like any of those.
01:00:24We'll have to think of something else.
01:00:27What if we trick it?
01:00:28What will that do?
01:00:29I don't know.
01:00:31It's not exactly clear-cut.
01:00:33We didn't even know genies existed until now.
01:00:36There's not exactly a user manual for these things.
01:00:39So what are you going to do?
01:00:41Are you going to put my mum back to sleep?
01:00:43I'm just trying to figure out a way we don't end up dead.
01:00:45I'd rather be dead than lose my mum again.
01:00:48Do you fucking hear yourself?
01:00:49I don't want to lose my mum.
01:00:54Everyone around us is dying or dead.
01:00:57Your agent is dead.
01:00:59I don't care about the book anymore.
01:01:02What's important is that my mum is back.
01:01:04Look, just because your mum might go back into a coma
01:01:07is not the end of your world.
01:01:08You have to look at the bigger picture here, Gabby.
01:01:10I can see the bigger picture.
01:01:12You want to put my mum back to sleep.
01:01:14That is not what I'm saying!
01:01:15It is!
01:01:15You want to take every bit of shred of happiness away from me!
01:01:18Gabby!
01:01:19No!
01:01:36It's only me.
01:01:38Mum, I didn't realise you were coming.
01:01:41Oh my God, no!
01:01:43You and London had a fight.
01:01:46There's something I have to tell you.
01:01:49You know you can tell me anything.
01:01:52I did something bad.
01:01:55I hurt a lot of people.
01:01:57It can't be that bad.
01:01:59You wouldn't harm a fly.
01:02:01Tell me what's happened.
01:02:06Well...
01:02:07Me and my friends...
01:02:09Well, I...
01:02:10We...
01:02:12We summoned a genie.
01:02:14I know it sounds strange.
01:02:16What?
01:02:17What?
01:02:18I made a wish.
01:02:22I made a wish that you'd come out of your coma.
01:02:26And now I'm scared it's just going to all be taken away.
01:02:32Look.
01:02:36Look.
01:02:38Do you know how proud I am of you?
01:02:40I always have been.
01:02:43I know you'll do what's right.
01:02:45And I'm not always going to be here.
01:02:47Oh, don't say that.
01:02:48It's true.
01:02:51I won't always be around but your life will go on and you'll have children and then you'll be gone.
01:02:55It's just the circle of life.
01:02:58So, you know, even if I'm not physically here, you know I'm always part of you.
01:03:05And you can always talk to me like you did when I was asleep.
01:03:09You heard me.
01:03:11Of course I heard you.
01:03:13You would tell me your ideas and you would read to me.
01:03:20Look.
01:03:21I love you, Brielle.
01:03:24Look.
01:03:24What can I do to help?
01:03:55I knew you'd come now.
01:03:59Right, let's get this over with.
01:04:02You're not scared?
01:04:07No.
01:04:09I'm not.
01:04:11And I...
01:04:13I left you to last.
01:04:18Why?
01:04:25Experience.
01:04:27This is not my first property art.
01:04:31In a group there's always one.
01:04:36Unlike...
01:04:37For vain.
01:04:39Selfish.
01:04:41Impressed.
01:04:42Friends.
01:04:44Easily distracted by material things.
01:04:47Your spirit is strong.
01:04:54What did you do to them?
01:05:00This is not my magic.
01:05:01Ah, bravery and admirable quality.
01:05:05I do not disgust to the people's wishes.
01:05:08But between me, and them.
01:05:18You're evil.
01:05:21You're not a blessing, you're a curse.
01:05:27You...
01:05:28You can't dismiss the truth, can you?
01:05:43The truth is you've been protecting the master.
01:05:48A person who's selfishness knows their bounds.
01:05:52Friendship is a two-way street.
01:05:54Yet, with your strength and spirit, you follow and agree with her on almost everything.
01:06:07I love her.
01:06:12And that will be your undoing.
01:06:14What is it you desire?
01:06:17I wish for you to be set free.
01:06:25Did you hear me?
01:06:27I wish for you to be set free.
01:06:29That is not a wish you could make.
01:06:34Why not?
01:06:36You are not my master.
01:06:40What difference does it make?
01:06:42It's my wish to make.
01:06:44You have to honour it.
01:06:50There are rules.
01:06:52It is not within my power to service the ground.
01:06:55I wish that benefits me.
01:06:58I wish that benefits me.
01:06:59Unless it is my fastest wish.
01:07:02Did you think it would be that easy?
01:07:13You say I'm evil.
01:07:16I was created to do this.
01:07:19But I'm not without concussion.
01:07:25The wishes I grant helps transition their souls without pain.
01:07:31Pulling a soul from one's body is painful.
01:07:50Their selfish ones are the key to their souls.
01:07:53And what's the best advice you could make.
01:07:53You must pick this edge of your mind.
01:07:55Too late.
01:07:55I'm your destination.
01:07:57Fine.
01:07:59I'll revoke it.
01:08:00I'll wish something else.
01:08:02It's too late.
01:08:04You have tried to deliver my master's position.
01:08:07So I am forced to take your soul.
01:08:14Fuck you!
01:08:25Lannan.
01:08:29Lannan.
01:08:29Lannan.
01:08:41Lannan.
01:08:42Lannan.
01:08:52Lannan.
01:08:53Lannan.
01:08:55Lannan.
01:08:57Lannan.
01:08:58Lannan.
01:08:59Lannan.
01:09:00Lannan.
01:09:01Lannan.
01:09:01Lannan.
01:09:01Lannan.
01:09:03Lannan.
01:09:06Lannan.
01:09:39I don't want you to do this.
01:09:42I don't know.
01:10:03Why have you called me again?
01:10:06Your wish has been granted.
01:10:08My deal has been done.
01:10:11Is this a trick?
01:10:16I want to revoke my wish.
01:10:19If you revoke your wish, then all of this shall be as it never happened.
01:10:27I know.
01:10:29Is this what you really want?
01:10:32As it cannot be returned and you will be unable to make another wish.
01:10:48Done.
01:10:52I know.
01:10:53I know.
01:11:00I know.
01:11:01I know.
01:11:09I know.
01:11:10I know.
01:11:23I know.
01:11:38I know.
01:11:39I know.
01:11:40Yeah, I know.
01:11:45Hey, Melanie.
01:11:47No change since this morning?
01:11:50No, not yet.
01:11:52So strange how she was up and about and now she's reverted.
01:11:56I know.
01:11:58I guess she just needed more rest before coming out entirely.
01:12:02That's very sweet.
01:12:05Anyway, I'll leave you to it.
01:12:07I'm sure your mum would like to hear more of what you're writing now.
01:12:09Mm, she does.
01:12:14Shall I go from the beginning?
01:12:20On a beautiful late autumn evening, a young girl sits on a chair watching the sunset.
01:12:26She has been waiting and she doesn't know how long more she has to wait.
01:12:31But she knows when that time comes, it'll be glorious.
01:12:49To be continued...
