(door thudding)

(dial buzzing)

(phone ringing)

(dial tone buzzing)

(phone beeping)

(two phone lines ringing)

- [Receptionist] Hello,
Dr. Wade's office.

Can I help you?

- [Operator] Midwestern
Phone Company.

- [Receptionist] Hello?

- [Him] Yeah, look, I have a,

I have a notice that my
phone's gonna be shot off.

- [Her] Yeah, uh, I'd like
to make an appointment

with Dr. Wade, I guess.

- [Operator] What is
the customer ID number?

- [Receptionist] Have
you been here before?

- [Him] Um, uh,
there's nothing here.

- [Her] Um, no, not really.

- [Him] Okay, I
found it, I found it.

A77-

- [Receptionist] Not really?

- [Him] 462396.

- [Her] Hello?

Can you hear that?

- [Receptionist] I can
hear you, no problem.

- [Operator] Yeah, your phone
is being shut off today.

- [Her] No, no, can you
hear, can you hear that?

Listen.

- [Him] Why?

Why is it being shut off today?

- [Receptionist] No,
I don't hear anything.

- [Operator] Uh, perhaps
you didn't pay the bill.

- [Her] That's weird.

- [Him] Uh, okay, is
it possible that I,

and I pay my bills, by
the way, ma'am, thanks.

Can I have an extension?

- [Receptionist] When
did you wanna come in?

- [Him] I just need
a little more time.

- [Her] I guess sometime
next week would be fine.

- [Operator] I'm going
to put you on hold.

- [Her] I guess sometime
next week would be find.

- [Receptionist] All right.

- [Him] Fine.

- [Receptionist] Let me
see what we have available.

Can you hold please?

- [Her] Sure.

- [Operator] Unfortunately,
they are already scheduled

to come out and shut it off.

- [Receptionist]
Thank you for holding-

- [Him] Can I give them a
partial check when he gets here?

- [Receptionist] How
about Monday at 9:30 a.m.?

- [Him] Can I give 'em a
partial check when he gets here?

Can I do that?

- [Operator] You can
certainly ask them, sir,

It's up to their
discretion at this point.

- [Receptionist] Or I have-

- [Operator] However,
according to our records,

you already bounced the
last two checks, though.

- [Receptionist]
That's not gonna work.

Actually, Monday at
9:30 is the best.

- [Him] Yeah, thanks.

Yeah, thank you ma'am,
for pointing that out.

What time are they
gonna be here?

- [Her] I don't think
I can make Monday,

so maybe I'll just-

- [Operator] Sir, I
really have no idea, but-

- [Her] I'm just gonna
call you, call you back.

- [Him] Hello?

- Okay, are you sure?
- Hello?

- [Him] No ma'am,
not you, thank you.

I hear someone else talking.

- [Receptionist] I'm happy
to check another date

the following week.

- [Operator] There's
only me, sir.

- [Her] Thanks, I'm sure.

- [Operator] Anything else
I can help you out with?

- [Him] No, thanks.

- [Receptionist] Okay-

- [Operator] You have a
day filled with joy, sir.

(electronic
interference warbles)

- [Her] Actually, could
you check one more thing?

I...
- Hello?

(interference droning)

- [Her] Hello?

Hello?

- [Him] Hello?

- [Her] Uh, I think our phone
lines might have got crossed.

- [Him] Yeah, I, uh, I
think you might be right.

I've thought I heard
someone else talking.

- [Her] Yeah, I, I think
I heard you as well.

- [Him] Huh.

Yeah, this happened before.

That was, was weird.

I was having a conversation
and then it turned out to be

someone I knew a
few, few blocks away.

- [Her] Huh.

- [Him] Apparently Chicago's
having some issues.

- [Her] Wait, you're in Chicago?

- [Him] Yeah.

- [Her] That's really strange.

- [Him] Why? What do you mean?

- [Her] Well, I'm in Michigan.

- [Him] You're in Michigan?

- [Her] Yeah.

- [Him] Wow.

How'd that happen?

- [Her] I have no idea.

- [Him] Oh, that's weird.

- [Her] Yeah.

Well, I'm sorry about the,
um, the crossed phone lines.

- [Him] Yeah,
that's, that's okay.

It's not your fault, and I'm
sorry about that as well.

- [Her] Okay.

- [Him] Okay.

(intense music)

(singers vocalizing)

(Her laughing)

- [Her] Yeah, you know.

- [Him] What are you,
wait, okay, so what is it,

like a cottage?

- [Her] (laughing) No,
it's, it's this very old,

Victorian house that
definitely sticks out

from the other
houses around here.

But I guess that's-

- [Him] How old are
we talking here?

Like it's, you guys
are Michigan royalty?

- No, no, but my,
my grandparents,

my great-grandparents
actually owned it.

So we've been
here, and you know,

parked outside
this obscure house

is this beat-up Volkswagen Bug,

which is sacrilegious
around here.

- [Him] Oh, no.

- And yeah, and, and
so my sister and I,

we just were indoors
playing music every day,

and you know, that's not
the typical thing to do.

- [Him] Every day?

- Yeah, I know, every day.

- [Him] That's, I
mean, it's dedication.

- Yeah.

- [Him] You guys,
do you still play?

- Uh, no.

Actually, she, she passed
away not too long ago.

- [Him] Oh, sorry
to hear about that.

Fuck.

- [Her] No, no, it's, you
know, it's, it's life.

It's, it's fine.

But, you know, death sucks.

But I'm still just
a Michigan girl,

even though I don't own a Ford.

- [Him] (laughing) I
don't think you have to.

I don't think you
should have to.

Anyway, you know,
it's, it's funny,

there were these train
tracks outside of our house

when we're growing up,
and I'd stand outside

and just like wait for
the train to pass by

so I could jump on it and
take it like a mile away

to the candy store.

- [Her] Well, how old were
you when you were doing this?

- [Him] Oh, I don't know.

I was like 12.

Like, a mature 12.

(Her laughing)

So I don't know if that
makes it better or worse.

- [Her] Yeah, I
don't, uh (laughing)

- [Him] Anyway, after
the candy store,

I would wait for
another one to come back

so I could head home, you know?

But one time I fell asleep
and I ended up 30 miles away.

- [Her] How did
you get back home?

- [Him] Uh, I didn't,
I'm still here.

(Her giggling)

I'm kidding.

But my, anyway, my
parents weren't amused,

but I always told myself
I'd never own a car,

'cause you know,
I was a train guy.

- [Her] I like that.

And do you still live
in the same area?

- No, no, I don't
live there anymore.

But the block I
lived on was rad.

Hanging out with all
the neighborhood kids,

playing 'til it got dark.

I liked it, you know.

It was, it was cool.

Everything was in its
place, if that makes sense.

Anyway, we ended up moving to,

to like the good ol'
United States of Texas.

I don't know if
you've been to Texas,

but I couldn't find my identity.

I mean, you know, one
day I'm standing there

in like penny loafers and
khakis, and then Izod,

and then another day I'm
in boots and Wranglers

and a flannel shirt,
and I, you know,

I just couldn't, I,

I couldn't figure it out.

- [Her] Yeah.

- I mean, maybe all
teenagers feel that way

to some degree, but it feels
like it was more so for me,

like, it kinda
set me on the path

to feeling like an
outsider, you know?

- [Her] I mean, I always thought
things would be different

when I graduated, or when
I got to a certain age,

but it turns out
we are who we are

no matter what
birthday we just had.

- That's either really
depressing or really reassuring,

and I'm not sure which.

- [Her] Both,
maybe, I don't know.

- But yeah, I, I get
your passion for music.

So yeah, anyway, I came
back home to Chicago.

I guess the question is, is
everything gonna work up?

(contemplative electronic music)

(flap clinking)

(television talk
show chattering)

- [Her] What are you watching?

- [Him] Uh, I dunno.

I'm not really watching it,
but I guess it's "Oprah."

- [Oprah] Let me
ask you this, Bob.

- Everybody's trying to
be Phil Donahue, I guess.

- [Her] Yeah.

- [Oprah] We hear so
much now in the 80's

about New Age thought-

(television clicks off)

- Do you know where
Youngstown, ME is?

- [Him] Uh, I don't know.

Maine?

- Or maybe it's MD.

That's Maryland, right?

- [Him] Could be a Madagascar.

- (chuckling) Madagascar.

It took a long way to get to me.

Can you hang on a sec?

- [Him] Uh-huh.

(somber piano music)

(paper rustling)

- Hello?

- [Him] Hey, what you doing?

- (sighing) There's this
campsite called Bowling Springs.

- [Him] Yeah?

- And uh, we would go there
and we would visit my uncle,

which turned out to
be my mom's friend,

which technically I
think is my father.

Anyway, we would go there and
we'd all sit around a campfire

and roast marshmallows,

and the people from the
neighboring campers would come

and bring out their instruments:
guitars, tambourines.

And I remember
sitting on his lap,

and it's actually my first
memory of playing the guitar.

He would hold the frets, and
I would strum the strings,

and he'd always tell me
to do the backup vocals.

And he'd always get
in trouble from my mom

because he always had a cigarette
dangling out of his mouth.

- Wait, wait,
sorry to interrupt.

I gotta go back
to this one point.

What do you mean you
think your uncle,

who's really your mom's friend,
is technically your father?

- Well, it's kind
of a long story.

- [Him] Huh.

Should I not ask?

- Um...

- [Him] Sorry, I
was just curious.

- No, it's, it's, it's okay.

I um, I'm just not sure
I really know who he is.

- [Him] Oh, can you
ask your mother?

(knocking at door)

Hang on one sec.

Someone's knocking.

- [Her] Sure.

(knocking at door)

- All right, hang on, damn it.

I gotta switch phones.

(knocking at door)

Are you there?

Hello?

(knocking at door)

All right, I'm, I'm coming.

Gimme a second.

Hey, you still there?

I can't hear you.

- [Her] Yeah, I'm still here.

- I thought I lost you.

(knocking at door)

All right, I'm coming.

Do I know you?

- [Man] Yeah, the phone company.

- Ah, shit.

- Okay, just play
along, all right?

- [Her] Okay.

- [Him] I'm the DJ and you're
the, you're the caller, okay?

- What do I do?

- [Him] Don't worry
about it; you'll see.

- (giggling) All right.

(buttons clicking)

- And 4, 3, 2, 1.

This is KSOL 810 AM Soul
Jam, and I'm your Soul Man.

We have a request from the
great state of Michigan.

Are you still there, Michigan?

- Yes.

I'm still here,
Soul Man (laughing).

Oh my God, that was horrible.

- Your voice is as sexy
as Jackie Brown, baby.

- [Her] Thank you.

- All right. (laughing)

So what, what soul song is
it you wanna hear, baby?

- Um, I don't know.

- [Him] Take your time.

We're just live on the air.

- Okay, um, it has to
be Aretha Franklin.

Let's do "Natural Woman."

- Aretha Franklin,
the Queen of Soul.

Let me see if I can find that.

In the meantime,
here's Chicago's own.

- [His Mom On Answering Machine]
Honey, I heard on the news

this woman was at the mall.

A gun went off and she
got shot in the ass,

but her girdle saved her life.

Tommy!

Tommy!

What was her name?

Forget it.

Remember, you should
always wear a girdle.

Okay, bye honey.

I love you.

(machine beeping)

I made creamed chipped beef.

Now I made this,
not your father.

You know how he makes
everything so bland.

(father speaking)

(machine beeping)

Hello, sweetie.

Me and Agnes went
to a garage sale

and wow, I found some treasures!

I got you Ralph Lauren
Polo underwear for $1.50

for a pack of six.

Still in the package!

I don't even think
they've been used.

(machine beeping)

Hello?

Hello?

See?

Again, I don't know why
I keep thinking it's you.

I-I know it's the machine.

Listen, honey, just
to let you know,

our number is still the same.

(machine beeping)

Call me!

I think there's a tornado.

(machine beeping)

Hello?

- [Him] Sorry.

I think it's almost done.

- [Her] (laughing)
It's totally fine.

- [His Mom] Hello?

- [Her] I'm actually
kind of enjoying this.

- [Him] Okay.

- [His Mom] I'm
meant to call Margie.

(machine beeping)

This is your mother
calling from the past.

You probably won't
get this message

because I'm getting an abortion.

(Him sniggering)

Honey, me and your father

have been trying to
get a hold of you.

Now you know how my
blood pressure gets

when I can't get a hold of you.

Call me.

- [Him] I think that's it.

(machine beeping)

- [His Mom] Hello?

- [Him] Aw, fuck.

- Okay, okay, okay.

So here to there.

Ah, I win.

- [Her] Whoa, way to go!

Way to go.

Way to go.

- [Him] Column one to
column one, your bucket.

- Column four, baby!

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo!

I won. (tokens clinking)

- So, you got a boyfriend?

You datin' anybody?

- Uh, I have met a
few boys in my time,

but um, I guess we'll
just leave it at that.

What about you?

- Never had a boyfriend, no.

- Dating girls, I mean.

- I've, I've had a couple of
beautifully forgettable dates,

and one great one.

- I think dating has a way
of misrepresenting itself.

It's like cussing:

overrated unless used
fucking appropriately.

One great one, huh?

- Yeah, at the
ripe old age of 11.

My, my insatiable soon-to-be
first girlfriend, Lily Adley,

who happened to be the
biggest Beatles fan I knew,

quite possibly the only one,
decided we were gonna be

the Sergeant Pepper's Lonely
Hearts Club Band for Halloween.

- Sounds like a girl I'd like.

- I mean, Lily's first idea was

she wanted me to be Houdini
to make everybody disappear.

She said that'd be impressive.

And I agreed.

But as much as I
wanted to impress her,

there were a, you know,
couple of obstacles

that I just couldn't
overcome, unfortunately.

- [Her] Yeah, only a couple.

- Anyway, there was
only three of us.

It was me, Lily, and my
best friend Benny the Bird.

- [Her] Benny the bird?

Why do you guys call
him Benny the Bird?

Feathers growing out of him?

- Oh no, he only
had two fingers,

and it was one middle
finger on each hand.

So that's why we
call him the bird.

And I heard that his dad was
in the mafia, Big Benny, right?

And outta retaliation, they
cut off little Benny's fingers.

- [Her] Oh my God.

- So, yeah, he'd always be
saying "F you" to his old man.

- [Her] That's awful.

- Yeah.

- [Her] Well,
retaliation for what?

- Well, word is, he wore too
much cologne to a poker game.

That's all I know.

- [Her] Is he
really in the mafia?

- Eh, I doubt it.

(arrow whizzing and thunking)

But you know, I heard his dad
owns a construction company,

and I think Benny was just
born with a hand defect,

if I'm honest.

So, yeah.

Anyway, we used his mom's
cocker spaniel to be Ringo.

And this may not be the
best time to mention this,

but I'm pretty sure Ringo
had chlamydia, so...

- [Her] That's gross. (laughing)

- Karma.

(arrow thunking)

- So um, I met John Lennon

- [Him] Oh.

Well, what a way
to trump my story.

- I'm sorry.

- [Him] No, it's okay.

When you're done,
I'll just tell you

about the time that I met God.

- No, I-I feel really bad.

- [Him] I'm kidding.

- I, I know you didn't meet God.

I just...

- [Him] That's not what
I was kidding about.

But anyway, tell me the story.

- Did you know that, that,
that John called Yoko Mother?

- [Him] How would I know that?

I only played him for Halloween.

- Good point.

- [Him] All right,
so what happened?

- Well, my um, my mom, she
knew this girl Lorianne,

and we went to
her private party.

My mom introduced
us to everybody.

And when she
introduced me to John,

inside, I was, I was just, whoa,

that's, that's John Lennon.

Anyway, my mom told
everyone we were musicians

and we ended up singing a song.

- [Him] What, like acapella?

- Um, well, we could have, but,

we um, we actually did a
song that we, that we wrote.

It was, um, it was called
"First House on East Ninth."

Not that that matters,

but it was this unique
kind of folky song

we were working on at the time.

Anyway, we did this song,
and, and at the end of it,

there was just this long
pause, you know, no clapping.

Everyone was just kind of,
just kind of staring at us,

and we were staring
back at them.

And then John, he
turns to Yoko and says,

"Mother, I think we found
an extension of our love."

- That's cool.

- [Her] It was a little surreal.

It was just one of those
moments where you know

that you're exactly where
you're meant to be in the world.

- Wow.

- And it's just some euphoric
feeling that makes you feel

as if everything
is gonna be cool.

- [Him] I assume it
probably felt like home

more than any actual
home, in a way.

At home in your soul, maybe?

And you guys ever
record that song?

- No.

- [Him] Why?

- We um, we, we just didn't.

You like to write, huh?

- Yeah, I like doing
creative things, you know.

I always said I wanna be a
creator or nothing at all.

- [Her] What do
you mean creator?

- You know, like,

like a creator.

You know, a creator
of, of, of film,

of words, of, of music,
characters, a creator.

(paint sloshing)

But yeah, I like to
write, I like to paint.

I wanted to be an actor and
a filmmaker when I was young.

- [Her] You don't anymore?

- No, I, I still do.

I made my first
film when I was 13.

- [Her] That's cool.

What was it about?

- It was called "The Ghost
in the Invisible Sheet."

And it was a movie
about a documentary,

(paint sloshing)

except the documentary was fake.

So it was a fake
documentary movie

about a documentary
that never happened.

- [Her] Ah, I don't get it.

- Yeah.

Nobody else did either.

- [Her] Well, did you
make any more movies?

- Uh, no.

- [Her] Well, you should.

I think that movies
can tell us more

about how to live our lives
than the real world does,

don't you think?

- Yeah.

(paint splattering)

So uh, what do you look like?

- [Her] A girl.

- Well, yeah, but you know,

we've been talking
for a while now,

and I got this image of you,

and I'm just kind of
curious what you look like.

- You know, it's, it's funny.

I created an idea
of you in my head,

and I must have convinced myself

that that's what you
actually look like

because I haven't
thought about it again.

- [His] This could
go horribly wrong.

- No, it's, it's nothing bad.

It's just kinda
strange in a way.

- [His] Strange?

(Her sighing)

- I see your face, but I don't,

I don't see your face.

You know what I mean?

- [His] No.

So what is the
face that you see?

- I, I don't wanna say.

Is that okay?

I just, I just wanna
listen to your voice.

Makes me,

I don't know,

makes me feel safe.

- [His] Of course it's okay.

- [Her] So tell me
something about you.

- Maybe I don't know
what I'm talking about.

Who knows?

I don't have it all
together, you know.

Sometimes happy is
a mask that I wear.

And no one really knows me,

how close I am to not
being here anymore.

- What do you mean?

- I had this relative,
his name was Hank.

And every time he
saw me, he'd hug me.

He'd sit me on his lap and
he'd tell me that he loved me.

And then he'd say that
my worth was determined

by the amount of money I make.

He was always saying,

"Stupid people take stupid jobs

and end up making
stupid decisions."

And then he'd whisper in my ear,

"You're not stupid, are you?"

And I never answered him.

And I think, I think
part of me realized

that I never answered
his question,

because in that moment,

I knew I was stupid.

You know, it took me a while,

but eventually I figured
out what was going on.

It wasn't hard to see it in
his satin-stained alcohol eyes.

And when I finally
realized what he was doing

when he came to my
room, it was too late.

And then a couple years ago,

my agent calls me and says,
"You got an audition."

And I booked my
first acting job.

It was an industrial.

- [Her] What's an industrial?

- It's an internal thing
for, you know, a company.

They only show to
their employees.

But it was my last acting job.

I'm gonna tell you the truth.

It was the doubts that
complicated my mind.

You know, I was, I was,
I was broke mentally,

I was broke financially, and uh,

and I knew the one
person that could help

was one person that
I hated to ask.

I asked Hank for a job
at his brokerage company.

And I remember when he saw
me, he whispered in my ear,

"So you finally
stopped being stupid."

I just, I, I couldn't,
I couldn't do it.

I couldn't stand to
look at his face.

You know, I figured,

I figured I'd rather die
broke and pursuing my dreams

than, than selling my soul to
that fucking pig, you know?

(paint cans clattering)

You know what I mean?

I don't know.

Somehow, whenever I'm
left to my own devices,

I-I-I seem to have a way of
fucking everything up, royally.

But it's, it's the,
it's the doubts

that keep tying the
noose around my neck.

You know, I, I feel like
I'm, I'm standing in a,

in a boat of mediocrity
and I'm looking for the oar

because somehow I've become
psychologically crippled,

you know? (crying)

- [Her] I wish I could
help you in some way.

- I gotta help myself
first, you know?

- [Her] I know.

- The funny thing is,

(gate squeaking)

Local church is doing a
missionary trip to Africa

for a year.

- [Her] Are you going?

- I was planning on it.

I haven't packed any boxes yet,

but supposed to leave on Monday.

- [Her] This Monday?

- [Him] Yeah.

I just want it to be a
fresh start, you know?

I hope that made sense.

On the, on the path from
my brain to my mouth,

things get jumbled
up somehow, and I'm,

I'm never as eloquent
as I wanna be.

That's another source
of frustration.

You okay?

- [Her] Yeah.

- [Him] You sure?

- [Her] Mm-hm.

- [Him] Do I need to let you go?

- No.

(projector whirring)

Your story, it just,
it just made me think.

- [Him] What'ch
you thinking about?

- I wanna tell you something,

and I've never said
it out loud before.

- [Him] You can
tell me anything.

- Um, when we were
about three or four,

my sister and I realized

that of all the
callings in the world,

we were destined
to do was music.

Last year we were, we were
headed to a music festival.

And I got an argument
with my sister

about who was gonna drive.

And, and so I took the keys
and I, and I got in the car.

And my mother, she had
to sit in the front

because my sister didn't
even wanna sit next to me.

She um, she just sat in the back

and this was the first
time that she never,

she's never said anything to me.

It was just a mile away.

And, and I lost
control of the car.

And it just started to slide,

and it felt like,

I felt like it was
hydroplaning. (crying)

And I, and I couldn't
get control of it.

And I crashed into
a telephone pole.

And it split in half. (sobbing)

And, and I remember that there
was nothing in front of me.

It was just me in
the seat of the car

in the middle of the road.

And,

and,

and I couldn't find them.

And I, and I started
calling out for them.

And I didn't know
where they were.

And I

And I found my sister.

And it was horrible.

I knew, I knew
she would be dead.

And I finally found my mom.

She was, she was
down this embankment.

And I was trying to talk to her,

but she was just staring at me.

- [Him] I'm here.

(Her crying)

Just breathe.

I wish I could do something.

- I'm sorry.

- [Him] Oh, no, it's okay.

What can I do?

- And I just feel like,

I just feel like all this
life is going on around me

and, and it's not for me.

I'm not really here.

I-I don't exist.

I'm just, I'm just
in this purgatory.

I don't know.

- [Him] I'm here.

Just breathe.

Just breathe.

- I haven't played any
music since the accident.

I never sang.

It just feels wrong without her.

- [Him] I wish I could
hold you right now.

- Me too.

(Alarm clock beeping)

- [Her] What time is it?

- Well, according to the
invisible construct of time,

to which we all subscribe,
also known as the alarm clock,

it is exactly 8:31
in the morning.

(faucet running)

- So how long have
we been talking?

- Not long enough.

- So

what do we do now?

- I don't know.

Get ear surgery, I guess.

- (laughing) We gotta go to a
doctor for that, or something?

- [Him] Probably, yes.

With surgery, yes.

Probably a doctor, to
answer your question.

- Yeah, 'cause I can't
bend back my elbow.

- I haven't tried,

(door thuds)

- Okay, this is, um, this
is weirder than I thought.

- Yeah, I know.

- I'm so nervous I'm shaking.

- Me too.

- Are your eyes closed?

- Of course.

- So what do we
do now? (laughing)

I don't, I don't know if I can,
if I could do this actually.

- Yeah, I don't know
if I can either.

- I'm sorry.

My hands are really sweaty.

- It's all right, it's fine.

I'm gonna see if I can make
this more comfortable for us.

Here, come here.

Jesus, you're wearing a zoo.

What is this?

Okay, I'm gonna,
I'm gonna go hide

in the bathroom, all right?

But I've left a
note on the table.

I want you to read it.

I'm thinking it might
make this more relaxed.

I think; I don't know.

If it doesn't, then we
can just open our eyes.

- Okay.

- But here I go.

(door thuds)

(slow music)

- Wow.

(Her sighing)

(Her laughing)

(feedback squeaking)

Hello?

Can't believe I've never
used one of used before.

Can you hear me?

Ten-four, over and out.

Good buddy.

Whatever it is that you say.

- (laughing) Yeah,
I can hear you.

Side note though, ten-four
is the affirmative command.

Like you understood.

- Ten-four.

- Did you read the note?

- Yes, I did.

How did you do all of this.

- With love.

Alright, I'm coming that way.

(door squeaking)

My hand's here.

You wanna take my hand or not?

I'm trying to be romantic.

Do you like my fort?

- It's beautiful.

Sounds like you're
building another fort.

- No, no more forts.

I'm outta sheets.

All right, so here's
what I want you to do.

You're gonna come out,

and then you're gonna make
your way to the end of the bed.

- Okay.

Eyes closed?

- Uh, come on.

- Okay, how was I
supposed to know?

- Hey.

Hi.

Over here.

I want you to sit in the chair.

- Oh.

Okay.

Okay.

Now what?

- Okay.

So this is the idea
that I thought of

when I was thinking of the
idea that I couldn't make work.

You can probably open
your eyes now, by the way.

- Okay.

- I want you to reach
under the chair.

- Under the chair.

- Grab the book.

- Okay, book grabbed.

- All right.

There's some colored
pencils there, too,

but I think you can just
leave them there for now.

Okay.

What we're gonna do is
we're gonna take turns

describing what we look like,

and then the other person
is gonna try their best

to create a drawing based
on that description.

All right?

And then we're gonna use the
colored pencils, as well.

- I dig it.

- All right.

- Wait, wait, wait.

That's not fair though.

You're an artist.

- Yeah, but I'm a, I'm a
can't-draw-people kinda artist.

- That's okay.

I got, I got some artist
skills up my sleeve.

Oh, I, I, dropped-

- You all right?

- Yeah, I dropped the book.

- All right.

- Okay.

- Remember, the goal
is to really try

and draw the best
composite possible, okay?

So bring it.

- Okay.

- All right.

- I go first.

- Uh, no, think I'll go first.

- Yo, let's
Rochambeau. (laughing)

- Okay, hip hop.

All right, on three.

Ready?

- Okay.

Uno.

- Dos.

- Tres.

- (laughing) Sorry.

What'd you get?

- What'd you get?

Don't change it.

- I got rock.

- Wait, you got rock?

- Yeah, I got rock.

- I got rock!

- I guess we gotta go again.

- Okay.
- All right.

- Okay.

- Uno.

- Wait.

- What?

- I wasn't ready.

- How can you not be ready?

Uno.

- Dos.

- Tres.
- Tres.

Okay, what'd you get?

- Rock.

- Yes! Yes!

Okay, I got paper.

- Damn it.

- Okay, I go first.

- You go first.

- Okay, I am, I'm going
to draw you first.

- Okay, perfect.

- So, what color
should I start with?

I guess your skin color, right?

What's your skin color?

- Yeah, I got like pinky yellow.

- Pinky yellow?

- Yeah, use both if
you like in this one.

- Dual pencil. (laughing)

- Dual wielding, okay.

- Okay, this'll be
maybe a bit abstract.

- That's fine.

- Okay.

Pink and yellow, okay.

What color hair?

- Uh, you know, I
guess it's like a dirt-

- I'm pulling black.

- No, it's not black.

Oh, it's like a, like
a mousey brownie,

dirty blonde kind of mix.

I don't know how you're gonna-

- Mousey, brown, dirty, okay.

- Short sides, short back,

and then long on
the top, kind of-

- How long on top?

- Uh, like, it's,
it's deceivingly long.

Like, it's kinda
wavy, so it's gotta,

it shortens itself.

- So kinda, kinda Elvis-y.

Kind of a pompadour-type thing?

- Oh, I hope not.

I mean, maybe a little bit.

No, it's just kind of
uh, just a little whip.

- Like a whoof.

- Little whip.

You know what I mean?

- Hhhwhip.
- Yeah.

- Okay, eye color?

- Brown.

- Brown.

- That one's less confusing.

- Just straight brown.

- Yeah.

- Little bit of yellow, no?

- If you like.

I'm not feeling sick today,

but this is your drawing.

I've got, like, my nose
is kind of like sharp,

like a triangle kind of thing.

- Which upside down triangle?

Do you have long eyelashes?

That's changing the subject.

- I guess so.

Like, you could see 'em, yeah.

- Okay, do you have eyebrows?

- Yeah, I got bushy eyebrows.

- Bushy eyebrows, black? Brown?

Same color as your hair.

- Yeah, exactly.

- Okay.

- All right, how's it going?

- You look, you look
top-rung handsome right now.

- Okay, perfect.

- What, what are you wearing?

What are you wearing?

- What am I wearing?

I'm wearing a denimy
kind of shirt.

- Denimy kind of shirt.

Blue?

- It looks like a black.

Just do the black, like,

it's like a blue-gray.

Everything's kind of blue-gray.

And then the pants,
kind of a black-red.

- How are your fingers?

I saw your fingers.

They're slender.

- Yeah, I got 10 fingers,
by the way, just in case.

- (laughing) I meant
five fingers on one hand.

- Of course.

- Yeah, 1, 2, 3.

- Not like Benny the Bird.

(Her laughing)

- Almost there.

Coloring your pants.

- Nice.

- Two feet, yes?

Oh.

- Two of 'em.
- Two feet.

Socks.

All right, what size shoe?

(both laughing)

Because I can really-

- I'm gonna be impressed
if you scale it right.

I think I'm a, I
guess I'm a nine.

- A nine.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- I wanna do mine now.

When's it my turn?

- Okay, okay, you are complete.

- I'm complete?

- Very handsome.

- Now that you're here.

Okay.

- Aw, I like that.

All right.

- It's my turn.

- Okay.

- Don't show me.

We're gonna show 'em together.

- Okay.
- Ready?

- What do you wanna know?

- Uh, you, you got a wide face?

You got a narrow face?

- Oh, face.

Um, normal.

Average.

- Normal, okay.

- Average.

- Okay, what color is your hair?

- It's, what do you think?

- I think you're blonde.

- Yes, but why do
you assume that?

- Nothin', nothin'.

- Why do you assume
that? (laughing)

- No reason.

I'm just gonna go ahead
and draw the blonde hair.

Have to do gold.

Okay, what-

- It's like, it's
kinda dark blonde.

- What kind of eyes you got?

- They're, they, they're change.

They change.

- They change?

- Well, it depends
on what I'm wearing.

When I'm wearing blue,
they're more blue.

If I'm wearing
purple, they're green.

- I'm just not gonna
draw eyes, okay?

- No, they're-

- What kind of nose?

- You could draw 'em like-

- You got a sharp nose?

You got a wide nose?

- Um, it goes thin, I
think, and then like-

- Starts thin and
then gets wide?

(Her laughing)

- It's not usually-

- Like a balloon?

- Like a balloon, I don't know.

- Okay.

You're a clown at the
moment, I hope you,

I hope you know.

It's a button nose.

This is already ruined.

You got lipstick on?

You got red lips?

What's going on?

- I don't, I don't
wear a lipstick.

- Okay, it's too late.

I use red already.

- They're naturally tinted.

- Okay.

- I'm wearing a blue,
long-sleeved dress.

- Thank you for
picking up, yeah,

I'm not getting
these colors right.

Okay, so you get
blue, long-sleeved-

- With shells on it.

The shells are black.

- That's right.

- So, so draw black
shells on a blue dress.

- Okay.

- I think you'll like my socks.

- What kind of socks you got?

- I did get them in the
men's section because-

- You got man feet.

All right.

I'm gonna draw some man feet.

- No, I don't have-

- Big old man feet.

For when you're
hunting your animals

that you make your
clothes out of.

- I don't have big feet.

- Stepping on shells.

- The men's section just
has the coolest socks.

They have rainbow sprinkles,
which is my favorite donut,

by the way.

- All right, rainbow
sprinkle socks.

- Rain. (laughing)

- See what I can do.

It's not gonna work.

Big old man feet.

- With a pink band on top,
and a blue band on the bottom.

- Okay.

- I also have long fingers.

- I think the scale's too small.

I'm not gonna nail those,

but I'm just gonna draw
big old witchy fingers.

All right.

This is so awful.

I'm ashamed.

I wish I'd never told
you I was an artist,

but I guess I'm ready
to show it to you.

- Ready?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- Do we just, uh,

do we just pass 'em back?

- Yeah.

Over the top?

- Over the top, but which way?

Where you going?

Is that your book?

Is that your hand?

All right, thank you.

There's, there's yours.

- Okay, thank you.

- Okay.

Oh my God!

(both laughing)

Oh!

- I don't even know
how to describe it.

- You wanna open your eyes?

- Yes.

And no.

Not now.

I don't know.

Do you?

- I don't know.

(Her sighing)

- Hi.

- Hi.

(marker scraping)

- I don't know how you'd do it.

I think I'd choke.

- It's just a classier
way to commit suicide.

- That is awful.

(knocking at door)

- [Waiter] Room service.

- Food's here.

- I gotta pee.

(table clanging)

Oh!

All right.

- You all right?

- Yeah.

- All right.

(bathroom door thuds)

Coming.

- Good afternoon, sir.

Your meat and cheese
plate, set of fruits,

champagne, two
glasses, and a cookie.

Compliments of the
house, I presume.

- Thank you.

Compliments to the house.

Wait, could you
put it over there?

- I could probably do that.

(utensils clattering)

- Okay, its ready.

- How close am I?

- I don't know, I can't see.

- That was a test.

How close is my voice?

- Ah, it's close.

- Can you guide me?

- Okay, um, Marco.

- Polo.

- Marco.
- Polo.

- Marco.
- Polo.

- Um, I can kinda hear you.

Let me try something else.

Come to the sound
of my hum, okay?

- Ah.

(Him humming)

- I'm reaching out.

- [Him] I can, I can feel you.

- You can feel me?

- [Him] I can feel your energy.

Come here.

- Oh, that's sweet.

That's very sweet.

Ah, I got you.

- Okay.

All right, all right.

No, that's my head.

(Her kissing)

Keep going backwards,
backwards, backwards.

This is your own fault.

All right.

- What do we got here.

- Bon appetit, I guess.

That room service guy was a
total dick jerk, by the way.

- Oh, yes.

I, I heard him.

- You heard him?

- I heard him.

"Good evening, sir.

"I hate my fucking job.

"Here is your meat and cheese
plate, and your cookie."

Don't choke on it.

- That's not a bad
English accent.

I think it's better
than his, actually.

He's probably from Hedaho.

- [Her] Hedaho? (laughing)

- Do you get it?

- What's Eedaho?

- [Him] Why are you laughing
if you didn't get it?

It's a, it's a pity laugh.

- It's a funny word.

- [Him] I was trying, I
was trying to be like,

instead of Idaho, it's Hedaho.

We're gonna move on because
it didn't work, okay?

Forget about it.

- Okay.

- [Him] He was a
vogansee; fugget about it.

- Ah, fugget about it!

- [Him] Fugget about it!

- I'm gonna, I'm gonna make
in am offer he can't refuse.

(waiter clearing throat)

Oh shit.

(coins clinking)

- Sorry, I'll just get that.

- Your generosity
is commendable, sir.

Fugget about it.

(Her laughing)

(door thudding)

- Oh, it's my tooth.

Go again.

You're on the right place.

- Okay, this is going in.

(food splatting)

No?

- No.

- Damn it.

Okay, one more.

Ready?

- Oh, you?

- No, you go.

Now the shoulder.

Go.

Ah, neck.

- Damn.

- Who's going.

- You're going.

I got an open mouth.

- Okay.

Ready?

Put a tunnel, like a,
like miniature golf.

- Uh-huh.

- Okay, ready?

- Uh-huh.

(food splatting)

- Nowhere near.

- Oh.

- What's going on?

- Okay, ready?

Give it a tunnel.

- It's a tunnel.

- Okay.

- Ah, I caught it!

That counts.

That counts.

- Yes!

- Okay.
- Okay.

- You want a champagne spritzer?

- Yes! Celebration!

- I think you deserve
a champagne spritzer-

- And more grapes.

- Okay.

I can, I can.

- I'll go get us ice.

- Okay, it's fine.

- No, no, I got it.

Okay.

- What if you're

- What if you're

So then what?

It's nice talking to you?

It was a good long chat.

Have a nice life.

- I don't, I don't, I don't
know how to describe my,

my thoughts, and my emotions,
and my feelings, you know?

But, but, and I,
and I-I-I get it.

Part of me, I-I-I
wanna look at you.

I wanna see you.

But part of me, I don't.

And I, I'm, I don't
think of this whole thing

as some kind of,

some kind of

I just, I can't, I can't

- Yeah.

It's overwhelming,

this emotion.

I don't know what it is.

If it's love.

Whatever I'm feeling,
I'm feeling something.

It's better than what most
people have got in this world.

So honestly, I can't explain it.

I've got no clue.

But if you don't wanna
continue, I get it.

I just don't think I'm ready.

- But when is the right time,

and when is it too long?

- Okay, how about this?

Close your eyes, I'm coming out.

- Okay.

- [Him] Okay?

Eyes closed?

- Yep.

- Take my hand.

Okay.

So here's what we're gonna do.

On the count of three, if,
if you wanna open your eyes,

you open 'em.

And if I wanna open mine,
I'm gonna open mine.

Whatever choice we make is
the choice that we make.

You ready?

- [Her] Yes.

- One.

- Two.

- Wait.

Does it feel like we keep
doing this counting thing?

- Yes.

- All right, good talk.

Let's, let's start again.

- All right, okay.

- One.

- Wait, wait. (laughing)

Um, let's spell the numbers out.

(Him laughing)

It'll give us more
time to think.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- You always have
the weirdest ideas.

- Yes, I do.

- All right.

- Ready?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

- [Together] O-N-E

T-W-O

T-H-R-E-E

- Did you open your eyes?

- No.

- Did you?
- No.

- How do I know he
didn't open your eyes?

- Because I wouldn't lie to you.

- And, and I love
french fries, right?

But every time I eat 'em,

she'd remind me it
causes high cholesterol.

So now I hate that word, too.

- Oh no. (laughing)

- But then I got
wrapped up in words

that I thought were cool.

So for instance, however
I die, whatever it is,

all I want my
tombstone to read is,

"We think he died
of tuberculosis."

- Tuberculosis? (laughing)

- Love that word.

- You know what your
tombstone is gonna say?

It's gonna say, "We
think he..." (laughing)

- Spit it out.

- "We think he died
of tuberculosis,

but it was most likely
of high cholesterol."

- Got a few things in common
with my mother, I think.

You'll see.

Well, you won't see.

Just get in the fort.

Thanks.

Hang on, okay.

- Okay.

(case sliding and clicking)

Is everything okay?

- Everything is more than okay.

Yeah, this is um, my surprise.

(slow guitar music)

- [Her] I'm sure you,
you probably do this too,

but there's always
those life questions

that are bubbling
inside your brain.

And this one I've been
really thinking about

is about Ben Spencer.

Have you ever heard of him?

- [Him] No, I don't think so.

- [Her] Boy, he's in Texas,

so I thought maybe
you might have,

but, so he was given a
35-year sentence for murder.

And when that case was overturned
because a witness lied,

they gave him the opportunity
to take a plea deal,

but he refused to take it,

and stuck with his truth
that he didn't do it.

And now he's in there for life.

And it's just something
that haunts me.

And, and I always
think about, you know,

if I would tell this lie to
set me free or, you know,

have my truth keep me locked
up for, what, eternity.

- [Him] Well, did
you figure it out?

- [Her] Yeah, I-I-I
think I would,

I would fight for my truth.

I,

I would stand by that.

And every moment I was in
there, I would find some way to,

to show that light,
to show the truth.

I would have to.

What about you?

- [Him] I never really thought
about it, but maybe I'd like,

maybe I'd like to
get out, have a life.

- [Her] Yeah, it's, it's hard.

And I, I just wish I could,
I could change it for him,

for anybody stuck like that.
