06:24chantel
06:24chantel old friend
06:25chantel old friend easy
06:25thing is
06:26thing is most people don't come to barry's bay to work they come to enjoy the lake explore the mountain
06:34trails and eat the spot prawns which we're famous for
06:36yeah i get it

07:05and of course he'd have a girlfriend
07:07and of course she'd be cool i mean he's him
07:10okay so i'm getting the feeling that you did not get the closure you were looking for
07:13is it that obvious
07:16i was so anxious
07:18to see him again
07:19i i really thought that that was the scariest part

07:35i don't mean like that i just mean like
07:38sam and i used to be so close like
07:42each other's touchstones and this is low-key
07:45or maybe high-key embarrassing

21:53on it boss
21:57oh my god
21:59that was close uh-huh lesson learned
22:01i don't know lesson you learned but my takeaway is when you start locking these doors
22:10on it i got the front
22:14oh my god do you need some privacy with that because i can go over there if you want ice
22:20cream is my
22:21grip tonight apparently i mean that's all it would take to get you to blow off work for an afternoon
22:27that last zoom was like a wedding planning related zoom so easier to blow off you know what who's
22:33wedding clients mine oh i didn't know you were engaged yeah it's just like it's not the most
22:42interesting thing about me okay and what is that i'm gonna be the youngest person to make partner at
22:49my firm that i built 20 000 hours last year that i negotiated scissors deal with coach before i brushed
22:55my teeth this morning wow sounds like you've had a pretty charmed life so far i wouldn't say that
23:01i just i work really really hard and i have hit every benchmark that i've ever set out for myself
23:08as gross as that sounds yeah no i believe you and i'm sure you're plenty driven it's just
23:13from my own experience you can plan all you want but shit happens what kind of shit well let's say
23:23your whole life was built on the dream of playing professional basketball and you train your ass off
23:29to play d1 in college so then you can be scouted by the pros which you are only then you
23:35rupture your
23:36pack and then you watch that whole plan wash down the drain for example and then next thing you know
23:46you're back in the town that you saw you never live in and work in the family business that you
23:55saw you never run that kind of thing i'm sorry i'm an asshole no at least you're a self-aware
24:07asshole that's
24:07so
24:24you
24:41Hello.
24:53Hey, Myla.
24:55Hey.
24:57How have you been?
24:58I feel like I haven't seen you in a while.
25:00Yeah, I've been busy with the memorial.
25:03Oh, is that why you're always at the tavern?
25:08Wow, observant.
25:11I'm helping Sam and Charlie with the details of the memorial.
25:15You know how guys are?
25:17Yeah, are they guys or just Charlie?
25:23I don't know what you're implying.
25:29Hi.
25:30Hey, we're friends, Delilah.
25:32Friends don't grill each other, okay?
25:36Okay, no judgment.
25:38I know you must be going through something, but Charlie Florek is not the answer.
25:44Do you even know what the question is, Jordy?
25:46What do you mean?
25:48I mean, I'm guessing maybe things with you and Whit are...
25:50Total disaster?
25:51Yeah.
25:53You happy now?
25:55No, Dee, I'm really sorry.
25:57Okay.
25:58Bye.
26:03Oh, hi.
26:04Hey.
26:04Sorry, Percy.
26:06Yeah, I remember.
26:08Delilah sent me over.
26:09I didn't think anyone would be home.
26:11Oh, no problem.
26:12Come on in.
26:12Honestly, I needed a break anyways.
26:14I've been down there trying to declutter and I'm curging like a maniac.
26:18Okay, well, I'll be in and out.
26:19I promise.
26:20Delilah just asked me to swing by to pick up a photo album, I guess.
26:24Yeah, sure.
26:24For the memorial service.
26:26Right.
26:28Maybe it's downstairs.
26:30I'll help you find it.
26:32Careful, it's a danger zone down there.
26:44I know a good game.
26:45Let's play Truth or Day.
26:48What do you think?
26:49I'd play if you would.
26:51Fine.
26:52You guys are so codependent.
26:55Hey, Charlie.
26:57How about a game of Truth or Day?
26:59I'm good.
27:00You kids knock yourself out.
27:03Might be that way.
27:05Okay, I'll spin first because it was my idea.
27:10Um, okay, I guess I choose Truth.
27:14Of course you do.
27:17Okay.
27:21Do you have a boyfriend?
27:25You know I don't.
27:26Just double checking.
27:32Uh, Truth.
27:36Boring.
27:38Do you have a girlfriend?
27:43Of course he doesn't.
27:44Look at him.
27:44Shut up.
27:47So do you?
27:52No.
27:54Alright.
27:55Well, I'm gonna spin again.
27:56Oh, God.
27:57Can we just put an end to this if I choose Dare?
28:00Yes.
28:01Now what should it be, this dare?
28:04Let me think.
28:11I dare you to kiss Percy.
28:19It's a dare.
28:20You have to do it.
28:24Dude.
28:25What are you waiting for?
28:27Look at her, Sam.
28:28She's cute.
28:29Get lost, Charles.
28:31I mean, if you don't want to do it, then I can.
28:36I hate for Percy to feel bad just because you don't have the balls to kiss her.
28:39I hate for him.
29:08JK.
29:09No offense, Bruce. Give me a few years.
29:20Wait, wait! It's your turn to spin!
29:23I don't remember the basement like this.
29:25Who knew? Sue was a hoarder.
29:28Sue? That doesn't sound right.
29:30Oh, no, trust me. I was finding stuff from the boys' toddler days.
29:34Yeah. I mean, I can show you if you don't believe me.
29:37No, no, no, please don't. I believe you.
29:39I was finding drawers, like, absolutely stuffed with, like, old Pokemon cards
29:42and, like, those paddle games with the rubber ball.
29:44I mean, I love Sue, but why would anyone want to keep those?
29:48Honestly, I don't know.
29:50Oh, shoot, that's work. God, it never stops.
29:54What do you do for work?
29:56Oh, I'm a pediatrician.
29:58Sam and I met in medical school, and I'm doing my fellowship in pediatric surgery.
30:03Wow. So you're like, uh, an organizer who saves lives.
30:07Yeah, like, you know, in training.
30:10You're amazing.
30:12Oh, my God. You want to laugh?
30:15Check this out. It's like DVDs from a zillion years ago.
30:19Uh, we got Halloween 6, Amityville Horror.
30:22Ugh, the thing. So creepy.
30:24I mean, not to mention, un-Sam, right?
30:28I, uh, I keep putting a Goodwill poster on it and keep switching it to save.
30:32Mind you, this is a guy who would rather have a root canal than watch a movie on TV.
30:37Like, any movie.
30:40Ugh, yeah, there's so many more boxes I need to get through.
30:43And I gotta go drop off the donations, and...
30:47You know what? The photo of us might be in Sam's room.
30:49Sue just has so much stuff.
30:51Oh, shit, let's walk again.
31:02Sam? You home?
31:05Yeah, down here.
31:07Sam? Hello.
31:08Hello?
31:10Do you know what to call me that? It's just Sam.
31:14What's wrong?
31:15Nothing. Why?
31:17Um, okay, whatever.
31:21I brought Sour Patch Kids in my entire movie collection.
31:24And let's face it, your TV is better than mine.
31:27Your choice. Psycho or...
31:29I'm gonna watch Billy Madison.
31:32Okay, whatever.
31:39Billy Madison.
31:41A buffoon.
31:43And yet, a threat to my eventual takeover at this company.
31:48A menace.
31:49And what do we do with a menace?
31:51We eliminate it.
31:53We eliminate Billy Madison.
31:56Trisha Labonte? Here.
32:00Scotty Logan? Here.
32:03Nothing, I'm just...
32:04Billy Madison.
32:04I just have to go to the bathroom.
32:06Don't pause it.
32:24Percy, do you need anything?
32:25No, I'm okay.
32:27I just...
32:27I have to get home.
32:28Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
32:29Slow down, B. What's going on?
32:33Um...
32:34I... I got my period.
32:37Okay.
32:37Did you not have any pads, or...?
32:39No, like...
32:40For the first time.
32:45That's big.
32:46Oh, my gosh.
32:48I'm sorry. Is it okay that I hugged you?
32:50I just...
32:53Thank you for telling me.
32:56Come on.
32:57I got you.
32:58It's okay.
33:00Would have been bad enough that it happened on a field trip
33:03to an apple orchard miles away from any form of modern plumbing.
33:09But...
33:09I was wearing my favorite jeans.
33:13White.
33:14Of course.
33:16Well, I bled through my underwear and my favorite shorts.
33:22It may be your couch.
33:24I'm really sorry.
33:26Please.
33:26That couch has seemed way worse.
33:28I have two boys.
33:28Don't even get me started.
33:30Oh, here we go.
33:32So, I have, um, a couple different sizes to choose from.
33:36And I'll get you some new shorts.
33:37Thanks.
33:53Here.
33:54See if these work.
33:56Oh.
33:57Honey.
34:00Are you okay?
34:02I'm sorry.
34:03No.
34:05You cry as much as you want, sweet pea.
34:09Between us.
34:12This is my favorite place to cry.
34:16I just...
34:17It feels like everything's changing and I hate it.
34:22Oh, I know.
34:23I get that.
34:38Hey.
34:41I just wanted to come and say goodbye.
34:44I thought you were leaving tomorrow.
34:47No.
34:48My mom has to deal with some work stuff.
34:50She's the apartment head now, so she has to be back early.
34:54Okay.
34:55That sucks.
34:59I guess the shining will have to wait.
35:02Yeah.
35:03Unfortunately.
35:07Um.
35:09Anyways.
35:11Are we good?
35:13Yeah.
35:14Of course.
35:16Swear.
35:18Swear.
35:39How.
35:42Foc BÜNDNIS.
35:43You don't have to see desped.
35:43I won't.
35:45The circle, somewhere else.
35:51As are like ties.
35:53Even.
36:01Right.
36:05I shook the best when your love was born
36:10Soaring up on your summer glow
36:14You went in search of someone else
36:21And I hear your ship is coming in
36:31Your tears are safe for me to swim
36:38And I hear storms coming in
36:47My tears are safe for me to swim
36:53Mom, I should never, I should never have come
36:56I'm so stupid
36:58I told you I would go to the funeral with you for one day
37:01To pay our respects
37:03Why did you go early?
37:05I should be able to be here on my own
37:08This was my home
37:09Percy, listen to me
37:10That place and those boys are toxic, okay?
37:13So as soon as we hang up, you are going to get yourself out of there tonight
37:16Do you hear me?
37:18Percy
37:19Oh, I have to go
37:22Hello?
37:24Shit
37:26Okay
37:28Why would she go back there?
37:30After everything they put her through
37:32Why would she do that?
37:33I don't know
37:35But there's only so much you can do
37:39She's not a kid anymore
37:43Just a minute, I'll be right there
38:00Sam
38:01Sam
38:02Hey
38:03Sorry to just pop up here like this
38:06It's fine
38:09Can I come in?

38:27Oh
38:29Oh
38:29Oh
38:30Oh
38:31In search of someone else
38:38And taught the hand that taught the bride
38:42Both our eyes locked to the tide
38:46We went in circles somewhere else
38:54And I hear a ship is coming in
39:03Your tears are saved from me to sleep
39:10And I hear a ship is coming in
