00:01:43that is
00:01:43You've been working overtime in the galley, keeping your glow moving.
00:01:57And I'm towing the party line from my airplane somewhere over here.
00:02:13What you plan on doing tonight, my friend?
00:02:21I'm thinking of killing someone.
00:02:27Why not when the hangman is in bed and my getaway is in the tides inside my bed?
00:02:52Music
00:02:54These frostbitten feet fail to feel
00:03:00This rotten wood makes for worthy or
00:03:08Row out, hold tight, tell me, dear Jerk and Dale, that I will be swept to see for sure.
00:03:23What you plan on doing tonight, my friend?
00:03:30Well, I'm thinking of killing myself Why not, when you've forgotten how to find my face
00:03:43And the edge of the earth is calling me by my name
00:04:09Hello, it's your emcee again Sorry, sorry to disturb you, I'd like to welcome
00:04:14Welcome the newlyweds to the wedding
00:04:18Fuck this
00:04:22One please
00:04:25Better make it two
00:04:27It's a wedding, you're not paying the tab
00:04:32Thank you
00:04:34Oh, sorry
00:04:37Holy shit
00:04:39Jenny
00:04:40Holy shit, Alexander
00:04:44Um
00:04:45Hi
00:04:50Wow, your hair has a lot more grey in it, it's also thinning
00:04:55And you look exactly the same as high school
00:04:58Apart from all the wrinkles
00:04:59Oh
00:05:00So are you joining the rush to get pregnant?
00:05:02Are you kidding me?
00:05:03I hate kids
00:05:04The whole baby making process is just disturbing
00:05:08It's like a parasite that grows inside you for nine months and then almost kills you when it comes out
00:05:14Oh
00:05:14Be honest with me
00:05:16Does it ever fully recover?
00:05:18I mean, I feel like the structural integrity would just be heavily compromised
00:05:22No, I'd block it out
00:05:23No, I'd block it out
00:05:24I don't want to sit around talking about post birth vagina trauma
00:05:29I just feel like it would render my penis completely ineffectual
00:05:31As opposed to moderately ineffectual?
00:05:34Exactly
00:05:34What's going on with your filmmaking?
00:05:38Not much
00:05:39Are you working on anything?
00:05:41Not really
00:05:41You sound very dizzy
00:05:43I'm also living with my parents again
00:05:45Oh my god
00:05:52Do you still have a thing, Stephanie?
00:05:56Correction, we still have a thing for each other
00:05:59What's your hang up with her?
00:06:01Have you ever just been with someone that you intrinsically understand on every level?
00:06:06That you just totally get and everything fits together perfectly?
00:06:11No
00:06:12All I'm saying is right now, me and her, there's no obstacles
00:06:17Well, that guy she's with looks like a pretty well-built obstacle
00:06:21I'm sure they're just friends
00:06:23With benefits
00:06:24Jesus
00:06:26I forgot how much shit you like to give me
00:06:29It's kind of refreshing
00:06:31Oh shit, there they are
00:06:34Wish me luck
00:06:35Good luck
00:06:44Let's all welcome the lovely newlyweds, Henry and Isabelle
00:06:52After four happy years and a small baby
00:06:55Henry and Isabelle finally decided
00:06:59To tie the knot
00:07:00And for Henry to get a perceptible
00:07:05But now
00:07:07It's time for the culmination
00:07:09Of our evening
00:07:11Getting drunk
00:07:11Yeah!
00:07:14Let's go to the dance floor
00:07:16And watch Isabelle and Henry
00:07:18Have their first dance together
00:07:21Alright guys, let's go
00:07:48Congratulations!
00:07:49Apart from all the sweating
00:07:51She did really good
00:07:52well. Where's your date anyway? Are you single? Yes. Interesting. You? Yes. Typical. I'm kind of
00:08:06in the market for a new best friend. Interesting? I actually have best friends already but thank
00:08:13you for asking. It was worth a shot. Now if you'll excuse me, destiny calls. Hey. Hey. So. So, so,
00:08:33so. You're
00:08:36really good. Thank you. Marriage, huh? And kids. Terrifying. That could have been
00:08:43you. What? Me and Henry? I don't think so. That was high school. But it does mean. What?
00:08:52Well, he can't really complain about us. Us. I'm just saying I'm here. You're here. My
00:09:01date's here too. Right. So that means us will have to wait a little while longer. Well,
00:09:06that's the part I love, the waiting. I love waiting 10 years.
00:09:14I'll text you. I'll text you. Just no friend, okay?
00:09:25Muchas.
00:09:37So, corpses and bad ones littered in the soil. Someone tried to fight it. But most just lay
00:09:45down. No shaking hands or hugged or saying good night. He don't really mind. You don't
00:09:52It just would have been nice
00:10:01It's very little time
00:10:05For the happy fights
00:10:15The boozer's gone
00:10:18The party's over
00:10:21What say me and you go back to my place
00:10:24And nightcap the nightcap
00:10:26To your parents' place?
00:10:27That is where I live
00:10:31Fuck it
00:10:33Tonight's been a whole lot more entertaining than I thought it would be
00:10:35Why not?
00:11:06I was
00:11:07Why would I lie?
00:11:09Hi
00:11:13Hi
00:11:13Hi
00:11:15Oh, Dad
00:11:16Um, Dad
00:11:17This is...
00:11:19Jenny, you remember?
00:11:20This is...
00:11:21Dad
00:11:22You can call me Roy
00:11:23He has a very lovely house
00:11:25It's beautiful
00:11:26You should try paying the mortgage on it
00:11:28Hm
00:11:29Do you know I remember you?
00:11:32Gemma
00:11:33Jenny
00:11:33Jenny
00:11:34Jenny
00:11:34My
00:11:35How you've changed
00:11:37All right, Dad, calm down
00:11:38Oh, no, all I'm saying is that I
00:11:40Remember this teenager
00:11:42Used to come round and visit Alex
00:11:44Now I have this beautiful young woman standing in front of me
00:11:47Not that young
00:11:48Do you know I don't know why you hang around with this layabout
00:11:51Oh, no
00:11:51We tried to get rid of him 11 years ago, but look, here he is
00:11:56Thank you, Dad
00:11:57You can go
00:11:58Oh, I can go
00:11:59In my own house
00:12:01Oh
00:12:01Oh, no, here we go
00:12:04Our wayward son has returned and with a guest
00:12:07Jenny
00:12:07You remember my mum
00:12:09Jenny
00:12:10Of course
00:12:11Oh, Dad
00:12:12Nice to see you
00:12:16Okay, can we wrap up this love fest? I didn't bring her to hang out with my parents
00:12:20I remember you always coming and staying the night when Alex was about 16
00:12:24How come you two never got together?
00:12:26I started dating someone else
00:12:28A stripper
00:12:29She wasn't a stripper when we were going out
00:12:31Oh, well, that's a shame
00:12:33Because you're much too good for him now
00:12:35I know
00:12:36I remember when I first met Roy
00:12:39It was at one of those, um, university parties we used to have
00:12:42Saw your mother from across the room
00:12:44My God, it was beautiful
00:12:46Your father was so intense
00:12:49Anyway
00:12:49Back in the day
00:12:50If I liked a girl
00:12:52I used to stare at her
00:12:54I wouldn't take my eyes off her
00:12:55No
00:12:56Which is exactly what I was doing
00:12:58He was making me blush
00:13:00But I was quite taken with him
00:13:03Eventually
00:13:04I went over
00:13:08And we hit it off
00:13:09And what was it that you were attracted to?
00:13:11He was interested in talking about politics and life and changing the world
00:13:14And that was just so different from all the other men I'd been dating at that time
00:13:18Well, I think it's great that you two found each other and have stayed together
00:13:21I just think it was because we met when we were so young
00:13:24Hmm, not everyone can be so fortunate
00:13:27Hmm
00:13:27Oh
00:13:28Are we talking about me again?
00:13:30No
00:13:31You're single because you're living with us
00:13:33And you're unemployed
00:13:35I'm writing?
00:13:36Facebook updates don't count as writing
00:13:39My mum ladies and gentlemen
00:13:41Alex
00:13:42It's not all about you
00:13:56So, this is your room
00:14:00It hasn't changed much since high school
00:14:02Actually, I just got most of this stuff
00:14:11Are you trying to lure me to your bedroom, get me drunk and then have your dirty way with me?
00:14:17Um, no
00:14:18You are safe
00:14:20It's just that we can't stop drinking
00:14:22Because if we stop drinking then it's hangovers
00:14:27And pain
00:14:28And reality
00:14:31And if we keep going we might not have to ever face any of it
00:14:34I will drink to that
00:14:43You are pretty cool
00:14:46You are pretty fucking cool
00:14:48Oh, you've only just realised
00:14:50It's more like
00:14:53I just remembered that
00:14:56Tonight
00:15:00Well
00:15:03You are pretty cool also
00:15:05Hmm
00:15:06But not as cool as me
00:15:08Right
00:15:08But you're definitely not the big shot jerk off filmmaker that everybody says you are
00:15:12No
00:15:14I'm more just a jerk off these days
00:15:18Correct
00:15:22Oh
00:15:23Oh no
00:15:24What?
00:15:26I think I feel those things coming on
00:15:28What things?
00:15:30Hangover
00:15:31Pain
00:15:33Reality
00:15:34How do we stop?
00:15:36Right now
00:15:37I could really go for a spoon
00:15:39I would spoon the shit out of you
00:15:43I would give you the spooning of a lifetime
00:15:45Do it
00:15:47Do it
00:16:03Good?
00:16:05Yeah
00:16:15That you're not already done it yourself
00:16:21With your eyes, these scissors made from sunday's papers singing mother-
00:16:30Alexander, this is your future self speaking.
00:16:35You've got to stop masturbating so much
00:16:38or your penis will wither up like a tiny little raisin
00:16:43and drop to the ground beaten by pigeons.
00:16:47Alexander, eat my work.
00:17:08I've got to go.
00:17:10You're just going to spoon me and leave me?
00:17:14Come by the coffee shop. I'll make you the best coffee.
00:17:18Okay. I've got to try and get up and give you a hug.
00:17:23Okay.
00:17:37No good.
00:17:48I'll just show myself out.
00:18:03Hey, babe. Sorry I couldn't hang out last night,
00:18:05but I'm keen to go out with you tonight
00:18:07if you're not too old and pathetic
00:18:10to handle drinking two nights in a row, that is.
00:18:15Definitely not old or pathetic.
00:18:21Feel great today.
00:18:25Totally up for another big one.
00:18:52Get out of here.
00:18:53Love you!
00:19:07YouTube now!
00:19:08I'm not here for the night now.
00:19:09No.
00:19:10Loose.
00:19:13What was he important?
00:19:13Who's here, so we...
00:19:15A interrogation ما
00:19:16God, nice to meet you.
00:19:17Who's was...
00:19:21You again?
00:19:22Me again.
00:19:26You know, I thought after last night you might not make it.
00:19:29Didn't even face me.
00:19:30Good.
00:19:30Because that's for you.
00:19:32Awesome.
00:19:34Shots.
00:19:35Bottoms up.
00:19:45Come.
00:19:58Kiss me.
00:20:24Have some.
00:20:31Alex, you need to stop overthinking everything and just be.
00:20:46You're supposed to do one up each nostril, not both at one.
00:20:49Why?
00:20:49Well, now you're going to have a lopsided buzz.
00:20:51Oh, fuck.
00:21:21Oh, fuck.
00:21:23Oh, fuck.
00:21:36Oh, fuck.
00:21:37How do you feel?
00:21:41Good.
00:21:43Good.
00:21:59Aren't you worried?
00:22:04About what?
00:22:06About all this.
00:22:07The lifestyle, the modelling, people paying you all that attention.
00:22:14One day soon it'll all be gone.
00:22:16Well, no one can be prepared for getting old.
00:22:20That's what I'm afraid of.
00:22:23Why worry?
00:22:24I mean, in this moment, this moment is all that matters.
00:22:32But what about tomorrow?
00:22:33Tomorrow never comes.
00:22:35Really, it does.
00:22:43Are we going to talk all night?
00:22:50I'm nervous.
00:22:51So am I.
00:22:53Well, you don't look nervous.
00:22:55I'm a good actor.
00:22:58It's just that there's been all this build up and anticipation and talk and I feel like if it's not
00:23:05the most amazing magical thing in the whole world, you'll think we've failed.
00:23:09I won't think that.
00:23:12Besides, we're definitely not sleeping together.
00:23:17Good. I mean, I wasn't expecting that we would.
00:23:21Good, cause we won't.
00:23:23Good.
00:23:24Good.
00:23:25Good.
00:23:26Good.
00:23:37Just say the lines, it's a screen test.
00:23:40Just say the lines.
00:23:41It's difficult.
00:23:43Come on, this is stupid.
00:23:44It's acting.
00:23:47You could stand here with me.
00:23:49I'm the director, I don't act.
00:23:51Come on, please, please, Alex, please.
00:23:56Please, please, please, please.
00:23:57Please, please, please, please.
00:23:58Okay, just let me get a frame.
00:24:07Tommy.
00:24:09Ever since we met, I knew there was something there.
00:24:16It wasn't anything specific, it was just this.
00:24:20This way you had about you.
00:24:23And I knew that if you'd just once notice me,
00:24:28if you'd just once look into my eyes,
00:24:33you would see how much I care about everything that was going on for you,
00:24:37and how I just wanted you to be happy.
00:24:45And you would know that we're meant to be together.
00:24:51Because I love you, Tommy.
00:24:59Was that okay?
00:25:02Yeah.
00:25:04Do you want me to do it again?
00:25:06No, I think you got it.
00:25:07Okay.
00:25:30Good morning.
00:25:33Good morning.
00:25:38I have to go shower.
00:25:40Okay.
00:25:42So, now what?
00:25:46I'll text you.
00:25:47Cool.
00:25:49When?
00:25:50Soon.
00:25:51When I'm not so busy.
00:25:53Some of us have jobs to go to, you know?
00:26:16I'm not so busy.
00:26:22Come on.
00:26:50Hi.
00:26:51Come on in.
00:26:52Hi.
00:26:52So what are we doing?
00:26:54Come in.
00:26:57Take a seat.
00:27:03Look.
00:27:04What I found.
00:27:06Oh no.
00:27:08Do we have to?
00:27:10Yes, we absolutely have to.
00:27:12And afterwards we can get really stoned.
00:27:15We can get some really bad food.
00:27:18It'll probably taste really good.
00:27:20And we'll probably just laugh.
00:27:24You tricked me.
00:27:27Yeah.
00:27:34It's you.
00:27:37It's so cool.
00:27:40What is it?
00:27:41I told you there's nothing there.
00:27:50I told you there's nothing there.
00:27:51I told you that I was like,
00:27:52I'm 9 to 10 to 10 years old.
00:27:55Oh my God.
00:27:57I'm 10 to 11.
00:28:03I'm 10 to 11.
00:28:07I messed up.
00:28:07Oh, my God.
00:28:14Yay!
00:28:16It was really good.
00:28:19Oh, come on, you're being too hard on yourself.
00:28:22There was heaps of funny stuff in there.
00:28:23It's a horror film.
00:28:25Yeah.
00:28:27Well, I didn't yawn.
00:28:29I guess that's something.
00:28:31And you can make a funny one next time.
00:28:34Because you know how.
00:28:37Now can we get stoned?
00:28:38Yes.
00:29:03You know, this is so much better than what I was going to be doing.
00:29:07Crying and masturbating.
00:29:09Um, not necessarily in that order.
00:29:12Mmm.
00:29:12Okay.
00:29:17You know, this is not terrible to look at.
00:29:22You are so charming.
00:29:25How come you're still single?
00:29:27Come on.
00:29:28You can tell me.
00:29:29We're spoon buddies, remember?
00:29:31Okay.
00:29:33I was in a big relationship.
00:29:35And I thought it was going to be until death was part.
00:29:39And then one day he didn't want to beg for me anymore.
00:29:43Just like that?
00:29:44Yeah.
00:29:45Yeah.
00:29:46Or he was scared.
00:29:46Or he was bored.
00:29:48Or he wanted something different.
00:29:51And I'm kind of crazy.
00:29:52So I guess he kind of got fed up on my kind of crazy.
00:29:56You're not that crazy.
00:29:58Yeah, but you are kind of crazy.
00:30:01So you don't recognise crazy.
00:30:04Well, I think you're more crazy than me.
00:30:06Yes.
00:30:07But I'm normal.
00:30:09Uh-huh.
00:30:10What about you?
00:30:11Why are you single?
00:30:12Is it because you're holding out for Stephanie?
00:30:14Because that's kind of nice.
00:30:16The thing is, I meet girls.
00:30:18We start dating.
00:30:19Everything's great.
00:30:21Mm-hmm.
00:30:21And then, at some stage, I start noticing their irritating personality traits.
00:30:28Oh, yeah.
00:30:29And I start thinking, well, if it's this bad now, imagine how annoying it's going to be in 20 years.
00:30:37And then I panic, and then I run away.
00:30:40So basically what you are saying is, you are my ex-boyfriend.
00:30:45Yeah.
00:30:46What about your last one?
00:30:47She seemed nice.
00:30:48You mean the Facebook photos of us seem nice?
00:30:51Yeah.
00:30:52Well, everyone's Facebook photos seem nice.
00:30:54That's the problem with our fake digital lives.
00:31:05Can I ask you a question?
00:31:08Don't bullshit me.
00:31:09Okay.
00:31:13On a scale of one to ten,
00:31:15How horny are you right now?
00:31:19Honestly?
00:31:21Honestly.
00:31:23Eleven?
00:32:09Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:32:10Calm down.
00:32:11Do you want to...
00:32:12Shuffle?
00:32:13Shuffle.
00:32:18Okay.
00:32:20Got it.
00:32:22Okay.
00:32:26No spillage.
00:32:28No spillage.
00:32:30I'm just going to sit here for a while.
00:32:31That's quite a lot.
00:32:32You know, when you come, you kind of sound like an English maid from like, downtown Ebby.
00:32:40What?
00:32:41Yeah, you sound like you're having it off with the butler down in the pantry.
00:32:46And it's so scandalous, you know?
00:32:48You were like, ooh, ooh, ooh.
00:32:52You sound like a caveman who's just discovered fire and is like,
00:32:57oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:33:06I can't even put this here.
00:33:10Okay.
00:33:19Good?
00:33:21Yeah.
00:33:25Ooh.
00:33:27What?
00:33:29Some just came out.
00:33:35How do you feel?
00:33:37Drunk?
00:33:39Relieved.
00:33:42Definitely drunk.
00:33:45So here we are.
00:33:46Well, here you are.
00:33:47I'm not here.
00:33:49I'm back there.
00:33:50Happily back there.
00:33:52All I'm saying is, I'm glad this has happened.
00:33:54Because it's given me a whole new perspective on things.
00:33:58I hope that one day you can have this feeling.
00:34:01And if me and Stephanie were to have a thing.
00:34:07Yeah.
00:34:08It'll be fine.
00:34:33Good morning.
00:34:34Good morning.
00:34:37Yeah, it is.
00:34:41Is this going to be weird now?
00:34:42Are you going to make it weird?
00:34:44No, but I mean, is this like a relationship thing?
00:34:49You think because we fuck so well together that I think we should be in a relationship together?
00:34:55It's so sweet.
00:34:56I'm not jumping to any conclusions.
00:34:58I mean, I didn't really...
00:35:01Well, I guess I kind of did.
00:35:03You cannot take offence at what I'm about to say.
00:35:06That statement always precedes something deeply offensive.
00:35:10Alex, you're an unemployed 29-year-old who still lives with his parents and masturbates too much.
00:35:15And it's great to have a new best friend who cannot get pregnant.
00:35:19And the sex is better than great.
00:35:22But when it comes to actual potential boyfriends,
00:35:26my standards are a little bit higher.
00:35:29I feel like I should be deeply insulted, but you raised some good points.
00:35:35I'm going to wash all the sex off me.
00:35:39Hey.
00:35:40Come in.
00:35:57Hello, stranger.
00:36:02You know, I'm still waiting for a secret boyfriend
00:36:05to jump out of a room and steal your way.
00:36:09There's no boyfriend.
00:36:11It's just me and you.
00:36:14How come it's so hard to get a hold of you?
00:36:16Why do you always have to label everything?
00:36:19I don't.
00:36:20You do.
00:36:21You're cool if we're not totally exclusive.
00:36:26Yeah.

00:39:31No, it's not like that. Trust me.
00:39:34So your, um, mood seems to have gone downhill since Jenny left with a new date.
00:39:39No, I'd just like to take you someplace quiet where I have you all to myself.
00:39:45Not tonight, though. It's been fun.
00:40:01It's been fun.
00:40:03It's been fun.
00:40:03It's been fun.
00:40:17It's been fun.
00:42:46I don't sleep.
00:42:47I prefer to stay up all night worrying about things.
00:42:50Dick.
00:42:54I've been trying to tire myself out, but it's just not the same without someone else.
00:43:04What were you thinking about?
00:43:06None of your business.
00:43:08If it was about me, is it still none of my business?
00:43:15Can I come over?
00:43:21Okay.
00:43:26Okay.
00:43:28I don't know.
00:43:28I don't know.
00:43:33I don't know.
00:43:36I don't know.
00:43:38I don't know.
00:43:43I don't know.
00:43:44I don't know.
00:43:45I don't know.
00:44:01I don't know.
00:44:07Busy.
00:44:11How are you doing?
00:44:12Good.
00:44:17Can I help you with something?
00:44:20You're going to stay cooped up in your room playing video games all day?
00:44:23Letting the world pass you by?
00:44:25Do you want a turn?
00:44:27Look, I know people didn't react to your film the way you'd hoped.
00:44:31But you can't just give up.
00:44:32Why not?
00:44:33Because you've worked so hard.
00:44:35Pissing it away over hurt feelings?
00:44:37That's something you're going to regret.
00:44:39And that's coming from somebody who knows.
00:44:46Dad, how did you know Mum was the one?
00:44:50Well, I didn't.
00:44:52One thing led to another and, well, shit kind of worked out.
00:44:56That's it?
00:44:57Well, basically.
00:44:59But you must have known something.
00:45:00Look, how are you going to know?
00:45:03I knew that I loved your mother and I wanted to make a go of it.
00:45:07And it's worked out for me.
00:45:10And it's lucky for you.
00:45:12Otherwise, you would have been a stain on my underpants.
00:45:14Gross.
00:45:22Alex, your mother and I would like you to move out.
00:45:47What are you doing here so early?
00:45:51Oh, no.
00:45:53Oh, no.
00:45:53Facebook told me.
00:45:54Oh, no, you didn't have to.
00:45:56I didn't really.
00:45:57I didn't really.
00:46:01Napkins for your artwork.
00:46:04That is funny.
00:46:05I also got you a card.
00:46:07Oh.
00:46:10To my new best friend on her birthday.
00:46:14An important reminder to never grow up so that you don't become like my old best friend.
00:46:20That is a load of shit.
00:46:37Thank you for my birthday present.
00:46:41There's one more thing.
00:46:42What?
00:46:42Yeah.
00:46:53Did you do that?
00:46:55Well, yeah.
00:46:56I mean, a lot of the other napkins were kind of bringing the place down.
00:47:00You know, it's been very difficult to concentrate at work since we did it.
00:47:06And I usually like this.
00:47:07I've got shit to do.
00:47:08We really have to do this more often.
00:47:10What about Stephanie?
00:47:14We've had that discussion.
00:47:16We're not exclusive.
00:47:18Okay.
00:47:21Is that a problem?
00:47:23No.
00:47:24Why would that be a problem?
00:47:52Hey, Mum.
00:47:52Can this wait?
00:47:53I'll be home in a minute.
00:47:54No.
00:47:54No.
00:47:55Alex.
00:47:56It's your dad.
00:47:57Look.
00:47:58I know what he said about me moving out.
00:48:00And I understand.
00:48:01I do.
00:48:02But...
00:48:02No, Alex.
00:48:04Dad.
00:48:05He's...
00:48:06He's gone.
00:48:07What are you talking about, gone?
00:48:10He's...
00:48:10He's dead, Alex.
00:48:16I don't...
00:48:17I tried.
00:48:18I...
00:48:19I tried to.
00:48:21But there was nothing I could do.
00:48:24I really tried.
00:48:25But he's dead.
00:48:27He's dead.
00:48:29He's dead.
00:48:31He's dead.
00:48:31I mean, just...
00:48:32Alex, can you...
00:48:34I can't do it again?
00:48:37I can't do it.
00:48:38And I can't do it again.
00:48:48I can't do it again.
00:48:53I can't do it again.
00:48:55Alex...
00:48:59We're so sorry.
00:49:08If there's anything we can do.
00:49:18Excuse me.
00:49:27I'm so sorry.
00:49:31I don't know what to say.
00:49:33It just happened.
00:49:36It was one of those things.
00:49:38Is your mum okay?
00:49:40She's really struggling.
00:49:43And you?
00:49:49I don't know what to say.
00:49:52I don't know what to say.
00:49:53I don't know what to say.
00:50:21I don't know what to say.
00:50:27I don't know what to say.
00:50:31I don't know what to say.
00:50:37I don't know.
00:50:44I'm sorry, could you just give me a minute?
00:51:19I don't know how he's doing, I mean he looks like he's handling his well.
00:51:34When you go through deep waters, I will be with you.
00:51:37You will not be burned up, the flames will not consume you.
00:51:43Then shall come to pass the saying that is written, death is swallowed up in victory.
00:52:18I know what it's like to lose someone.
00:52:22How do you go on?
00:52:25You keep living and one day it's less painful and then one day it's not everything that you think about.
00:52:34I just wish I hadn't been such an insufferable prick to him sometimes.
00:52:38You mean you wish you hadn't been such an insufferable cunt to him sometimes?
00:52:42What?
00:52:44There's a smile.
00:52:46And how do you know saying something like that wouldn't just send me over the edge?
00:52:51Because I know you Alex Lucas, I know you better than you think I do.
00:52:57But your dad, he loved you very much.
00:53:01And that's what you should think about, not the mistakes.
00:53:13Mum wants to sell the house.
00:53:16I'm thinking of going back to London, starting again.
00:53:21Well, what's the point of coming back then?
00:53:23I'm just going to have some childhood do-over.
00:53:26Don't you spend a lot of your time wishing you were a kid again?
00:53:29No. Why should I?
00:53:32When you were a kid you believed in fairy tales and magic and in the impossible.
00:53:39There was this amazing adventure waiting to happen around every corner.
00:53:44And then you grow up and you realise that none of that stuff is real.
00:53:49It was a lie.
00:53:51And we're not invincible.
00:53:54Look, I may not believe in fairy tales but I believe in me.
00:54:00You know, I know who I am and for the most part I'm happy because I choose to be.
00:54:07You know, life keeps happening whether you want it to or not.
00:54:12And you can't go backwards.
00:54:16Well, it's getting late. I should go.
00:54:19I've had enough of being an adult for one day.
00:54:21Alex.
00:54:22Thanks for being there for me.
00:54:25You're a good friend.
00:54:46I'm so sorry.
00:54:50I hate seeing you like this. It's awful.
00:54:54Is there anything I can get you?
00:55:04Say when?
00:55:06When?
00:55:09How come?
00:55:11After all these years, we're still doing this.
00:55:16You had other stuff going on.
00:55:17No, I didn't.
00:55:19Parties.
00:55:20Modelling.
00:55:20You were going out with Henry.
00:55:23You were going out with Henry.
00:55:23Other guys.
00:55:25No.
00:55:27You're different.
00:55:29You stay through all that bullshit.
00:55:31I like that about you.
00:55:34I was the most obnoxious, irritating, brutally honest version of myself.
00:55:45And for some crazy reason, you liked me in spite of that.
00:55:50I liked you because of that.
00:55:55I am really drunk.
00:55:59Don't listen to me, okay?
00:56:02Mm-hmm.
00:56:13Are you going to be okay?
00:56:15No.
00:56:17But I'll worry about it tomorrow.
00:56:20Alex.
00:56:21I'm always here for you.
00:56:25I'll always be here for you.
00:56:39I'll always be here for you.
00:56:48Whoa.
00:56:49Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:56:50Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:56:51Wake up.
00:56:51What the fuck?
00:56:52Wake up.
00:56:53I'm awake, okay?
00:56:55Clearly I'm awake.
00:56:56I'm talking to you.
00:56:57You are coming with me.
00:56:59Where?
00:57:01Wait.
00:57:03They're going on an adventure.
00:57:25Can we try our least walky type of adventure?
00:57:28You're some party.
00:57:31How do you know about this place anyway?
00:57:33Because I don't spend all my spare time joking off in my room.
00:57:38I also go to the gym.
00:57:39Come on.
00:57:40Come on.
00:57:55And who's the gym?
00:57:57I love you.
00:58:00What?
00:58:01How is it?
00:58:01I love you.
00:58:06Whatever.
00:58:23What am I doing?
00:58:25What are you doing?
00:58:27I'm shooting for the moon.
00:58:30What's that saying?
00:58:31Shoot for the moon.
00:58:33If you miss, you'll end up floating
00:58:36aimlessly through the infinite
00:58:38blackness of the cosmos.
00:58:43Tell me what's going on.
00:58:45When it's night time
00:58:47and I see the stars out,
00:58:49I think about how small we all are.
00:58:53And then I think about my dad
00:58:56and I think about the people
00:58:57that I care about dying
00:59:00and I get scared.
00:59:06I don't know what part of me feels like
00:59:08it'll be a relief.
00:59:13I wish I was more religious.
00:59:15Maybe then I'd feel better about it.
00:59:17So you can be afraid of living
00:59:19as well as dying?
00:59:22I guess it doesn't pay
00:59:23to look too far into the future for anyone.
00:59:26I believe there's something else.
00:59:28Why?
00:59:29Because
00:59:31where else does it all go?
00:59:33Where does what go?
00:59:35This
00:59:36and this
00:59:38and
00:59:40this
00:59:41and this.
00:59:43They can't just all disappear.
00:59:47Can it?
00:59:49No.
00:59:50I think it has to take on
00:59:52another form.
00:59:54So what does it mean?
00:59:56I don't know.
00:59:59I guess it means that I think
01:00:01that there is magic in the world
01:00:03if you're willing to believe in it
01:00:05and even if there isn't
01:00:08it can't hurt to enjoy the illusion, right?
01:00:12I am.
01:00:12I am.
01:00:14I am.
01:00:29I am.
01:02:01I guess I'll just wait till you get here.
01:02:05I'll see you soon.
01:02:06I'll see you really soon.
01:02:07Okay.
01:02:08Oh God.
01:02:08Okay.
01:02:09Bye.
01:02:15Hey.
01:02:17Hey.
01:02:18Uh, come in.
01:02:25So, I was thinking we could do a leprechaun movie marathon.
01:02:30And we can just have sex during the boring bits slash films.
01:02:35I even got the one where he's in the hood.
01:02:39Okay.
01:02:40Some of the films aren't that bad.
01:02:41I'm pregnant.
01:02:42What?
01:02:44I'm pregnant?
01:02:50That's not something you should be joking about.
01:02:51I'm not joking.
01:02:52I'm serious.
01:02:52I just took three tests.
01:02:57Is it mine?
01:02:58Don't.
01:02:58Are you sure?
01:03:00Yes.
01:03:01I'm not fucking sure.
01:03:02But you're on the pill.
01:03:03Yeah, well.
01:03:04Apparently it's not 100% effective.
01:03:06Clearly.
01:03:18You're going to say anything?
01:03:30When are you going to abort it?
01:03:32When am I going to abort it?
01:03:35You hate kids.
01:03:36I hate kids.
01:03:38They ruin lives.
01:03:40I mean, neither of us want to become a casualty of a stupid kid like our friends.
01:03:45I mean, we just had that conversation, right?
01:03:47Yeah.
01:03:47So we agree then?
01:03:48No.
01:03:50I mean, yes, but...
01:03:52I just don't know.
01:03:54It's different.
01:03:55How is it different?
01:03:56We have awesome sex together.
01:03:58That's our thing.
01:03:59That's what we do.
01:04:01How could we possibly have a kid?
01:04:03Is that all this is, Jay?
01:04:07Isn't it to you?
01:04:08Why are you making this so awful?
01:04:10Oh.
01:04:11Look, I'm just saying that, you know, maybe this isn't black and white.
01:04:15Maybe this at least deserves some discussion.
01:04:17Do you want to keep it?
01:04:18No, I'm not saying that.
01:04:20I'm just saying that this isn't something that we should be taking lightly.
01:04:29What the hell is Stephanie going to think?
01:04:31Who cares what Stephanie thinks?
01:04:33Well, do you think that she's still going to want to see me if she finds out that I've knocked
01:04:36up some other girl?
01:04:37Are you really that fucking arrogant?
01:04:40This has got nothing to do with Stephanie.
01:04:41This is a complete accident and I'm just trying to figure out how to deal with it.
01:04:45You know, just for the record, Stephanie does not like you as much as you like to think she does.
01:04:48How would you know?
01:04:52No, come on.
01:04:53How would you know?
01:04:53What makes you such an expert?
01:04:55Because she's lived with Henry.
01:04:56Yeah.
01:04:57Ten years ago.
01:04:58No.
01:04:59Like a month ago.
01:05:12You were just saying that because you're jealous.
01:05:13No, I am saying this.
01:05:17Because, yes, I'm jealous.
01:05:20I'm saying this because you're my best friend.
01:05:24And you know this how?
01:05:25Because he told me when I went to visit him.
01:05:29He's still my friend, Alex, even if you've decided that you can't hang out with him anymore because he has
01:05:33a family.
01:05:37You don't know what you're talking about.
01:05:39You don't know what you're talking about.
01:05:41This isn't one of your stories and everything is going to turn out just as you planned.
01:05:45You know, the reality is, Stephanie doesn't give a shit about you.
01:05:49She doesn't have to.
01:05:50She knows that just like a faithful dog, you're going to come scurrying back for whatever script she tries to
01:05:53throw your way.
01:05:54Well, good fucking luck.
01:05:56What are you going to do?
01:05:57Don't worry.
01:05:58I won't tell anyone it's yours.
01:06:00You can go back to pining over Stephanie.
01:06:02What, so that's it?
01:06:02You're just going to keep it?
01:06:03I don't know.
01:06:06But I do know that I never want to see you again.
01:06:10So you can go back to your spoiled life and your imaginary girlfriend and you can just get out.
01:06:20Get out!
01:06:23Get out!
01:06:24Get out!
01:06:34You know, when you asked me if there was ever anybody that I intrinsically understood on every level,
01:06:40that person was you, Alex.
01:06:42And it was obvious to everybody except you.
01:06:46Hey!
01:07:02Hey!
01:07:05Hey!
01:07:07Hey!
01:07:09Hey!
01:07:09Hey!
01:07:29Fuck!
01:07:31Fuck!
01:07:40Fuck!
01:07:47Fuck!
01:07:51Fuck!
01:07:54Fuck!
01:07:55Fuck!
01:08:12Alex! Hi!
01:08:13Oh my gosh! I haven't seen you in ages!
01:08:16It's good to see him!
01:08:18Come in!
01:08:19Is Henry in? He's working late.
01:08:21You remember working, don't you Alex? Come in!
01:08:23Hello!
01:08:25Take a seat! He'll be home any minute.
01:08:32So how are you?
01:08:34I've been better.
01:08:35Ah, it's always the end of the world with you, isn't it Alex?
01:08:39Well, this time it really is.
01:08:41Yes, I'm sure it is.
01:08:42We need to find you a nice girl.
01:08:44You're always so much happier when you're seeing someone.
01:08:49And food too! You like food! Let me get you something.
01:08:55This will cheer you up.
01:08:59And it'll make us coffees. Do you still like mockers?
01:09:01Yes. Okay.
01:09:09Can I ask you something?
01:09:11Yeah, of course.
01:09:12If you knew something about someone that you really cared about.
01:09:17And this information could hurt someone else you really cared about.
01:09:27Would you tell them?
01:09:48Would you tell them?
01:09:57Yeah.
01:09:57Here you go.
01:10:04Hey hun. Hey.
01:10:07Look who appeared on our doorstep.
01:10:11So what's up?
01:10:12I haven't seen you for a while.
01:10:17So you know.
01:10:18You just got fucking married. What the fuck were you thinking?
01:10:21What do you want me to say Alex?
01:10:23That I'm kind of an asshole?
01:10:25No.
01:10:25I just don't understand.
01:10:28Isabel is the nicest person.
01:10:30Look.
01:10:30All of this.
01:10:31Is not the fairytale we pretend it is.
01:10:33Okay?
01:10:34Yeah.
01:10:34We're broke.
01:10:35We're exhausted.
01:10:37The baby doesn't sleep.
01:10:39Izzy's completely lost her sex drive.
01:10:40She's moody as fuck.
01:10:43Look.
01:10:43I was bored and lonely.
01:10:47Why didn't you tell me it was like this?
01:10:49Because I hate.
01:10:51I hate fucking admitting it.
01:10:52Okay?
01:10:53You're right.
01:10:55Sometimes this is unbearable.
01:10:57Besides we don't hang out anymore.
01:10:58When was the last time you came over here and didn't look like you want to blow your brains out?
01:11:06I'm sorry.
01:11:07Forget it.
01:11:10Just don't tell anyone alright?
01:11:14They might drive me crazy but I love them.
01:11:21Hello Melissa.
01:11:34Hey.
01:11:36You haven't been replying to my text messages or my phone calls?
01:11:40Yeah, I didn't really feel like it.
01:11:45Henry told me he told you.
01:11:49Yeah, he did.
01:11:53I'm sorry.
01:11:54We were just really really drunk and we started reminiscing about old times and...
01:11:58One thing lead to another and it just kind of happened.
01:12:02Right.
01:12:03And I regretted it immediately and...
01:12:07How to tell you?
01:12:08Because it just...
01:12:09Didn't mean anything.
01:12:14Hey.
01:12:19This whole Alex Stephanie thing...
01:12:23That I build up in my head...
01:12:25It's kind of just bullshit.
01:12:27I...
01:12:27I was really fucked up and I wasn't thinking straight.
01:12:33You don't love me.
01:12:35You love the idea of me.
01:12:38Come on, do you think that we'd still be doing this?
01:12:40After ten years?
01:12:43Come on Alex.
01:12:45Please.
01:12:45Please.
01:13:05It's...
01:13:05It's just a fantasy.
01:13:07It's not.
01:13:09Wait.
01:13:10So what?
01:13:11What?
01:13:11You're just gonna...
01:13:13You're gonna stop seeing me?
01:13:24Don't you get it?
01:13:28I'm special.
01:13:30You're never gonna find another me.
01:13:32You're never gonna have this again.
01:13:39Fuck.
01:14:11Um...
01:14:12Is...
01:14:12Is Jenny in?
01:14:14She's busy at the moment.
01:14:16Okay.
01:14:19Can I get a coffee?
01:14:21Look.
01:14:22Jenny's actually said you're not really welcome here anymore.
01:14:24So I can't actually serve you.
01:14:27It's...
01:14:28I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
01:14:30No, that's...
01:14:31Cool.
01:14:32I... I understand.
01:14:33I'm really sorry.
01:14:34It's...
01:14:35It's totally fine. Sorry.
01:15:04I can't believe there's only one week left.
01:15:08What are we all going to do?
01:15:10Well, I know what I'm going to do.
01:15:12I'm going to go to film school and become the next Peter Jackson.
01:15:15But what if you don't?
01:15:18I'm pretty sure it's like my destiny.
01:15:22What about you?
01:15:23I honestly don't know.
01:15:25Well, don't you think that you should know?
01:15:27I mean, maybe have a plan?
01:15:31I don't know.
01:15:32I think it's kind of nice not having any plans.
01:16:04I don't know.
01:16:12We've watched the movie and, to be perfectly honest, it's not great.
01:16:22However, we do see a lot of potential there.
01:16:26Especially taking into account the new writing you've submitted.
01:16:30What I'm saying is, we'd like to represent you, both as a writer and director.
01:16:37However, we don't represent artists who live overseas.
01:16:42So, you would have to give us your assurance that you're making your move a more permanent one.
01:16:52Come on, would it kill you to say that you've missed me?
01:16:56So you're still mad, huh?
01:16:57Oh, Arthur.
01:16:58I don't care enough about you to be one way or the other.
01:17:01Don't you think back to all the good times?
01:17:04We had something special.
01:17:06It all seems like just a dream now.
01:17:09Why?
01:17:10You've got to hold on to your dreams, Cathy.
01:17:12Close your eyes.
01:17:13Let me take you back there.
01:17:15To reacquaintancy.
01:17:16That is definitely not a word.
01:17:21So are you going to tell me about this film?
01:17:25I don't know.
01:17:27What do you do when your dream comes true and nothing happens?
01:17:33Get a new dream, I guess.
01:17:37Hmm.
01:17:41You never liked anything you could have until you couldn't have it anymore.
01:17:44It was a mistake.
01:17:45I was young and stupid.
01:17:47Well, one of those things is still true.
01:17:49That must be why I like you.
01:17:50I don't know.
01:18:24Expecting a call, are you?
01:18:28Not really.
01:18:31That's why you've got your head on the phone when you could be appreciating this.
01:18:36What?
01:18:38Life.
01:18:42I was just hoping to hear from someone.
01:18:44Ah, I see.
01:18:46Hoping to get a call from a girl.
01:18:50Girlfriend.
01:18:51Not exactly.
01:18:52Someone you'd like to be your girlfriend.
01:18:54Probably not.
01:18:55Definitely not if you're standing here waiting for her to call you.
01:19:00Smoke?
01:19:02I don't smoke.
01:19:04Drink?
01:19:06No thanks.
01:19:08You don't drink, you don't smoke.
01:19:09You're standing here looking at a phone that's never going to ring.
01:19:13Sounds like a right sad cunt to me.
01:19:18Maybe I will have some of that.
01:19:20That's the spirit.
01:19:26A bit strong.
01:19:28That's an awful accent you have there.
01:19:31Whereabouts are you from?
01:19:33New Zealand.
01:19:35Fuck me.
01:19:35You're a long way from home, mate.
01:19:37What has you over this side of the world?
01:19:42I don't know.
01:19:44You don't know too much, do you?
01:19:46I thought I did.
01:19:48Don't feel bad.
01:19:50Nobody knows anything.
01:19:52The sooner you figure out that, the better off you'll be.
01:19:59That, you keep it.
01:20:00I think you'll need it more than I will.
01:20:03Do me a favour.
01:20:04Don't stand around waiting for the phone to ring.
01:20:50Don't stand around waiting for the phone to ring.
01:21:22Don't, don't stand around waiting for the phone to ring.
01:21:33Just give me one second.
01:21:35Look, would you just give me one second of talk, please?
01:21:38Why? Why should I?
01:21:39Please.
01:21:40I hate you.
01:21:41I know. I fucked everything up. I ruined it and I'm sorry.
01:21:47I don't care that you're sorry.
01:21:50Look, I was chasing a stupid fucking dream about a girl that didn't even exist
01:21:53when there was someone ten times better lying in bed right next to me.
01:21:58Fuck you, Alex. You don't deserve any of my time.
01:22:09Can you open the door, please?
01:22:10Fuck off!
01:22:24I moved out of my parents.
01:22:26So?
01:22:27You're just going to run away again when things get too tough.
01:22:29I know you, Alex. You're just a boy.
01:22:33No, I tried running away.
01:22:35Okay?
01:22:38You know, when I see a girl with dark brown hair,
01:22:42I stop and I wait for her to turn,
01:22:47hoping it's you.
01:22:49Wherever I am.
01:22:51Not because we'd talk or you'd be happy to see me,
01:22:53but just so for one moment I would catch a glimpse of you in real life.
01:22:57And I know that's sad and desperate,
01:23:01but that's how much I miss you.
01:23:08You know, I used to not get up in the morning
01:23:10because I had nothing better to do than sleep.
01:23:15And now I don't get up because when I dream
01:23:17is the only time that I see you.
01:23:21And we're still together.
01:23:23And it's amazing.
01:23:26And it's so much better than real life
01:23:28where I fucked everything up and ruined everything.
01:23:37I just want you to give me a chance.
01:23:43I want to have this baby with you.
01:23:48I know I can do this with you because I...
01:23:52Because I love you.
01:23:54I do.
01:23:55You mean everything to me.
01:23:59You know, I thought being a filmmaker
01:24:02and making movies would make me happy.
01:24:07And...
01:24:09It didn't.
01:24:14But you make me happy.
01:24:18You make me a better person.
01:24:26And once you told me to get a new dream...
01:24:31Well, I think you are my new dream.
01:24:33You make me happy.
01:24:35I'm well.
01:24:58You make me happy.
01:25:03I think you are my new dream.
01:25:07Why are you doing this to me?
01:25:09I swore that I was never going to see you again.
01:25:12I swore it to myself.
01:25:14So?
01:25:15I swore that I was never going to grow up.
01:25:17I don't even know if I want to be with you.
01:25:20You know, I don't even know if two people can be together forever.
01:25:24Then don't think about forever.
01:25:28Just be my best friend again.
01:25:31You have got so much left to prove.
01:25:35I know.
01:25:40Don't you fucking hurt me again.
01:25:44I won't.
01:25:52Okay.
01:25:53Okay?
01:25:54Okay.
01:25:55Okay.
01:26:01Okay.
01:26:02Okay.
