CreativityTranscript
00:08Yeah?
00:09Marsh, it's the 15th. I'm changing the looks tomorrow.
00:11I told you I'd have it by Friday.
00:12You said that last month, and the month before that.
00:15Just give me 48 hours.
00:16You've got 12.
00:24400 a month in this city? It's got to be a crawlspace.
00:37What the hell?
00:42You're the one who called.
00:45Ali Marsh, we texted about-
00:47I know what we texted about.
00:50I was hoping you wouldn't actually show up.
00:53Great first impression. You always answer the door half-dressed?
00:56My house, I answer however I want.
01:01Look, I listed the room because my accountant said I needed a tenant for tax purposes.
01:05I don't actually want someone living here.
01:07Then take the listing down.
01:08400 a month for this place? What's the catch?
01:11The catch is me.
01:13You're a student.
01:14You work at, what, a diner?
01:17A restaurant.
01:18Same thing.
01:20You can't afford real housing, so you're here hoping the listing wasn't a scam.
01:23It's not.
01:24But I don't do roommates.
01:26You done?
01:27I don't do small talk.
01:28And I don't do whatever sad little bonding ritual you're imagining.
01:33Excuse me?
01:34I've been evicted.
01:35I slept in my car twice this week,
01:36and I just worked a double where a man threw soup at me because it was too hot.
01:39So forgive me if your whole brooding rich girl routine.
01:41You need a tenant, I need a room.
01:42This doesn't have to be a relationship.
01:44Fine.
01:44Move in.
01:45Let's see how long you last.
01:48What did I just do?
01:51Of course.
01:58You've got to be kidding me.
02:03What?
02:04It's seven in the morning.
02:05And?
02:06And?
02:07Normal people don't blast music at seven in the morning.
02:09I'm not normal people.
02:27Hey.
02:28You okay?
02:30Define okay.
02:32Faye.
02:33He's drinking again.
02:35Found bottles in the garage.
02:37Tammy just pretends everything's fine.
02:39I'm gonna figure something out.
02:41Just stay out of his way, okay?
02:44Yeah.
02:44I know the drill.
02:55How did he even get my number?
03:02This is my living room.
03:04It's a shared space.
03:06That was in the agreement.
03:08I don't recall agreeing to anything.
03:13What is your problem?
03:16I don't have a problem.
03:17I have a house.
03:18You're the problem in it.
03:20You advertised for a roommate!
03:22My sister advertised.
03:24I'd rather live with the rats.
03:26You don't scare easy.
03:27I grew up with worse than you.
03:37Hey, babe.
03:38Yeah, I moved.
03:39It's fine.
03:40The roommate's manageable.
03:46You've got to be kidding me.
03:54And she's charging me $800 a month.
03:56You didn't have to come all the way out here.
03:59Wanted to see where my girlfriend's been hiding.
04:01This place is insane.
04:04Who lives like this?
04:07My roommate.
04:08She's...
04:09Home.
04:16That's the roommate.
04:19Romy.
04:20This is Jade.
04:21Jade.
04:21Romy.
04:22The girlfriend.
04:24That's right.
04:25Didn't know you had a type.
04:27Thought it'd be...
04:28Call her.
04:31I don't like this.
04:32Her walking around like that.
04:34You're here alone with her every night.
04:36She's my landlord, Jade.
04:37That's it.
04:40Lawlords don't look at their tones like that.
04:43Like what?
04:44Like they're deciding what to do with them.
04:48Heating's been rattling.
04:50Called a guy.
04:51She wanted $400.
04:51Figured I'd just fix it.
04:53You don't have to.
04:54I was going to split the repair cost.
04:57It's done.
04:59We should go.
05:01Dinner somewhere that isn't...
05:02This.
05:03Jade.
05:05Come on.
05:10I'll grab my jacket.
05:13Stay away from her.
05:15Or what?
05:22Don't start.
05:24I wasn't going to.
05:26Good.
05:29She hurts you again.
05:30I'll break her hand.
05:32You don't even like me.
05:34No.
05:34I don't.
05:37Good night, Romy.
05:41Good night.
05:49You look like hammered shit.
05:51Thanks.
05:52It's my signature look.
05:53Seriously.
05:54You sleeping?
05:55My roommate had a rough night.
05:57Walls are thin.
05:58The hot Russian nightmare you keep complaining about?
06:00I never said he was hot.
06:02You didn't have to.
06:03You get this little creep.
06:04She screams in her sleep rank.
06:06In Russian.
06:06It's not cute.
06:08It's...
06:08It's what?
06:09Sad.
06:10It's really sad.
06:17You touch him again.
06:18I swear to God.
06:19What the hell are you going to do?
06:20You can't even pay rent, boy.
06:21You're going to lecture me for a little...
06:22She's 13, Dad.
06:23He's 13.
06:26Kid runs her mouth.
06:27Remind you of anyone?
06:48Whoever that was, you can't fix him by breaking yourself.
06:53You don't know anything about it.
06:56I know what it sounds like when someone's father is the monster.
07:01Leave the glass.
07:02I'll get it.
07:05I drove two hours because I missed my girlfriend.
07:08Place still feels like a ma hazelium.
07:10You sure you don't want to just come stay with me on weekends?
07:13Jade!
07:17I'm here.
07:19Let's just have a good weekend.
07:34We're having dinner.
07:36Privately.
07:38Romy.
07:39What?
07:40I'm being friendly.
07:42You're being a prick.
07:43Put a shirt on.
07:46Didn't realize the dress code changed.
07:57She walks around half-dressed, calls you by your last name like it's some inside joke.
08:01You don't see what she's doing!
08:03She's my roommate.
08:04She lives here.
08:08She's marking territory, Elise.
08:10And you're letting her.
08:14That's insane.
08:16Are you sleeping with her?
08:20Don't.
08:22Don't do that.
08:24Then why won't you move out?
08:26Because I can't afford anywhere else!
08:28You know that!
08:28Let go!
08:30I'm trying.
08:32I'm trying to protect you!
08:33I said let go!
08:42Stay away from her!
08:43Or what?
08:45I mean it!
08:47Whatever game you're playing.
08:49No game.
08:51I just don't like watching someone get grabbed in my house.
08:55That the best you've got?
08:58Enough!
09:00Why do you keep doing this?
09:02You already know why.
09:04You look terrible.
09:05Didn't sleep.
09:07Girlfriend keep you up?
09:08He left at midnight.
09:10You know that.
09:11At one in the morning.
09:12In Russian.
09:14Sounding like...
09:15Like what?
09:17Forget it.
09:20I want to tell you something about your girlfriend.
09:23She's not!
09:23What about her?
09:25She came to my room last night.
09:27After you fell asleep.
09:28What?
09:30She knocked.
09:31I opened.
09:32She stayed.
09:34You're lying.
09:36She tasted like the wine you bought for dinner.
09:38Why would you...
09:39Why would you tell me this?
09:42Because you deserve to know what she is.
10:02Hey babe.
10:03I was just about to...
10:05How long have you been sleeping with Riley Ashbin?
10:09What?
10:11That's insane!
10:12Who told you?
10:13Nobody told me.
10:15I read the messages.
10:16You went through my...
10:17She doesn't suspect anything.
10:19That's what you wrote.
10:20Three weeks ago.
10:24Elise, listen to me.
10:27Whatever you think you saw.
10:28Riley is nobody.
10:30She's just a friend who...
10:34We're done.
10:35You're overreacting!
10:36Sit down!
10:37Let's talk about this!
10:38Like...
10:41You lied.
10:43Yes.
10:44Jaded never came to your room.
10:46No.
10:47Then why the hell would you...
10:48Did you check her phone?
10:50That's not the point.
10:53You made me think.
10:55You don't get to decide how I find out my girlfriend's cheating on me.
10:59You're right.
11:00Don't ever lie to me again.
11:07You're going to starve.
11:09That's a stupid way to die.
11:13Elise.
11:21Drink.
11:22Doctor's orders.
11:24You're a hostess, Wren.
11:25I'm a hostess who's watched you zombie walk through three shifts.
11:28Drink.
11:32So.
11:34Jaded.
11:34Cheating piece of shit.
11:35That's the whole story.
11:36And the roommate?
11:37The terrifyingly hot Russian who pays for everything?
11:39He lied to me.
11:41Told me Jade slept with him just to...
11:43I don't know.
11:43Blow it all up?
11:45Did it work?
11:47That's not the point.
11:48Kind of sounds like the point.
11:52She's infuriating.
11:54She breaks everything she touches and then just...
11:56Stands there.
11:57Like she's waiting to see if you'll still be in the room when the dust settles.
12:01Are you still talking about Jade?
12:07You're up.
12:09I live here.
12:14Why'd you do it?
12:16You'll have to be specific.
12:18The lie.
12:19About Jade.
12:20Why tell me something that disgusting if it wasn't true?
12:23Because you wouldn't have believed the truth.
12:24Not for me.
12:25You needed to see him clearly and you weren't going to.
12:28Not while he was still touching you.
12:30So you decided for me?
12:31I gave you a reason to look.
12:33You found the real thing on your own.
12:34That's not your call to make.
12:36No.
12:36It wasn't.
12:37Why do you care what happens to me?
12:40You should eat.
12:41There's pasta in the fridge.
12:50Thanks.
12:55You're kidding me.
12:58I don't control the weather.
12:59Billion dollar family and you don't have a generator?
13:06It's decorative suffering.
13:08Builds character.
13:10Okay.
13:11That's actually kind of nice.
13:13Don't get comfortable.
13:15Power will be back in an hour.
13:20So what did you actually do in St. Petersburg before all this?
13:27Tried to be invisible.
13:28Didn't work.
13:30Hard to imagine you invisible.
13:32I was smaller then.
13:34My mom used to paint before she got sick.
13:37Watercolors.
13:37Mostly.
13:38Birds.
13:38She'd tape them all over the fridge and my dad would tear them down when he was drunk.
13:42Faye used to hide the best ones under his mattress.
13:43He's got like 30 of them.
13:45Your brother sounds braver than both of us.
13:47He is.
13:49My mother painted too.
13:50Oils.
13:51Big canvases.
13:52She said painting was the only honest thing she did in that house.
13:55She'd let me sit in the corner and watch.
13:57I wasn't allowed to talk.
13:59Just be there.
14:00That sounds peaceful.
14:02It was the only thing that was.
14:05Can I ask you something stupid?
14:07All your questions are stupid.
14:09Go ahead.
14:10Smiling.
14:10Do you ever think about just staying?
14:13Not going back to any of it?
14:16Every day.
14:20So why don't you?
14:22Because the things I'm running from don't stop chasing just because I'm tired.
14:26You're staring.
14:27You had something on your...
14:28Never mind.
14:30Never mind.
14:56What the hell is that?
15:00A dog.
15:02I can see it's a dog, Romy.
15:03Why is it in our kitchen?
15:04She was under the porch.
15:06Skinny.
15:07Probably out there all night during the storm.
15:10We can't have a dog.
15:11I work doubles.
15:12You barely remember to feed yourself.
15:14She stays.
15:16You can't just...
15:18You can't just...
15:18This isn't...
15:19You were saying?
15:22She needs a vet.
15:24And a name.
15:26Sable.
15:30You already named her?
15:33She looks like a Sable.
15:35She needs an actual leash.
15:36And shots.
15:38And probably deworming.
15:39I'll handle it.
15:42With what?
15:43Your black card?
15:44Yes, hello.
15:45I'd like the platinum puppy package.
15:47They have those.
15:49I've checked.
15:52This is weird, right?
15:54Us walking a dog together like normal people.
15:58I'm not normal people.
16:00Yeah, no kidding.
16:04You slept on my shoulder.
16:07I was cold.
16:08Don't make it a thing.
16:08I'm not making it anything.
16:10Good.
16:14So, let me get this straight.
16:15He brought home a stray dog.
16:17Named it without asking you.
16:19And now you're co-parenting?
16:20It's not co-parenting.
16:21Elise.
16:22It's co-parenting.
16:27Elisa, this is Thema.
16:29Thema, my emotionally unavailable friend, Elisa.
16:31She undersells everyone.
16:32Hey, she oversells everyone.
16:34So, brace yourself.
16:36I'd love to see your portfolio sometime.
16:38Maybe over dinner?
16:40Yeah.
16:41Sure.
16:41That'd be nice.
16:46Clean bill of health.
16:48Minor malnutrition.
16:49They estimated two years old.
16:51Thanks for taking her.
16:53Where were you?
16:54Coffee with Wynne.
16:55She introduced me to someone.
16:56Thea Calloway.
16:58And?
17:01And he's nice.
17:02Asked me to dinner.
17:04Good for you.
17:05Romy.
17:10I'm going to bed.
17:14It's 7.30.
17:27You came.
17:28I was starting to think you'd bail.
17:30Almost did.
17:31Three times.
17:32In the elevator.
17:33Becca's been asking about your roommate.
17:34Apparently they had some class together freshman year.
17:37Romy's not coming.
17:40You were saying?
17:44Of course.
17:46Alright.
17:47Birthday rules.
17:48Truth or dare.
17:49No chicken out or you drink the mystery shop.
17:51That looks like antifreeze.
17:53Tastes worse.
17:54Brent.
17:55Truth or dare.
17:56True.
17:56Who in the room would you most want to be stuck on a desert island with?
17:59Elise.
18:00She can cook.
18:03Boring.
18:04Delia.
18:04Truth or dare.
18:05Dare.
18:06Text your ex.
18:07I miss your dog.
18:08Done.
18:09She's going to kill me.
18:11Your turn.
18:12Truth or dare.
18:14Truth.
18:15Who in the room do you find most attractive?
18:18Him.
18:21Very funny.
18:23I don't joke about that.
18:25Romy.
18:26Dare this time.
18:27I dare you to kiss the person you just named.
18:29You don't have to...
18:41That was messed up.
18:42You can't just...
18:43In front of everyone.
18:44Why not?
18:45Because it was a game.
18:46Because Ryn was right there and she...
18:47Because you don't mean it.
18:50That wasn't a game.
18:52I've never wanted anyone the way I want you.
18:55And it's inconvenient as hell.
19:06Faye?
19:08What's...
19:08He won't stop.
19:10Elise, please.
19:11Please come get me.
19:13I'm coming.
19:15Don't move.
19:16Lock your door.
19:21Faye, listen to me.
19:23Where are you right now?
19:25Locked in the bathroom.
19:26He just kept hitting.
19:28He broke the...
19:29He broke the door, Elise.
19:30He just kept hitting.
19:31Are you hurt?
19:32Tell me exactly.
19:33My face.
19:34My ribs, I think.
19:35He's downstairs.
19:36I can hear him.
19:41I heard.
19:41Let's go.
19:42You don't have to...
19:44You don't have to...
19:44I'm driving.
19:45Move.
19:48Take the next exit.
19:50Glen Road.
19:50It's about 40 minutes.
19:51I know.
19:52I looked it up while you were on the phone.
19:55She's teen, Romy.
19:56She's just a kid.
19:58We'll get him.
19:59If Glen touched him again,
20:01if there's a mark on him that wasn't there last week,
20:03then we'd deal with it.
20:05But right now, breathe.
20:09I should have gotten him out sooner.
20:11You're getting him out now.
20:19The hell are you doing here at this hour?
20:22Where's Faye?
20:23The boy's fine.
20:24Threw a tantrum.
20:25Locked himself in the bathroom like a little middle.
20:28Faye!
20:31Who the hell...
