I guess it's too soon for break-up sex.

I'm sorry.

I just...

I think it's best.

Not for me.

I really do think it is best for you and for me.

For Simon.

Yeah.

I strongly disagree on all counts.

Sorry.

Oh.

Yeah. Well, it's nice meeting you and...

And on that note, I drop my hat...

...to you, fair maiden.

I bid you adieu.

Have fun being straight.

Did I leave my heart here?

You know anyone that might be able to pick it back up,

put it back in the hole?

I need to go this way anyway, so.

Shit.

I just don't know what we're going to talk about anymore, you know?

Yeah, that's why I broke it off.

No more secrets.

So you are gonna tell Simon?

No, I'm not gonna tell Simon.

I mean, I'm not gonna do anything that requires keeping secrets.

Oh, so no more new secrets.

Can you please stop doing that?

And, yeah, I...I really think the best thing is that we both

just forget it ever happened and then live in denial

in our delusional, guilt-free lives.

Sure. Yeah.

It works for murderers.

I'm just saying, I really like Nat?

Lily, this isn't helping.

Yeah, but I'm saying if I had to choose...

But you don't have to choose.

And in fact, I really don't want you to choose.

Well, it would be Nat.

I mean, when are you ever gonna find

a genuine connection like that,

with chemistry, at a fitness class?

Not even through Tinder?

It is a miracle.

I saw her moving in everything...

Lily, Nat is no longer going to be coming around to our house.

Period.

- But me and Simon, we are... - What?

We're good.

And in fact, we're really happy.

So maybe you could think about choosing that for me.

And the cool thing is,

I only have to service 30% of the mortgage

and mum and dad just do the other 70%.

Wow. Yeah.

Everyone's going to think you've embezzled money

or got a sugar daddy or something.

Yeah, I wish, but the truth is,

the reason we got it for so cheap

is we were the only ones that could handle

that somebody had died here recently.

- Recently? - Yeah. Really recently.

Right where you're standing, actually.

PHONE DING

- Hi! - You're a sly one.

Huh? What do you mean?

I just figured you and Simon would be moving in together.

Oh.

Oh, no. Oh. Absolutely not.

No, no, we're - we're - we're not really

in that zone yet, you know, as a couple.

I mean, he's allowed to come over, obviously,

whenever he likes.

He's just not allowed on any of the furniture.

Well, I bet he's secretly sulking.

You know how men are.

You know, I had no idea Hamish was that serious about me.

And then. Hello?

Oh, wow. Oh my God.

Wow.

- Cool. - Thank you.

I mean, we did have to go back and swap the rings,

cause his taste was a little too steampunk

for my liking.

Wow, it's so beautiful.

- Congratulations, Meredith. - Thank you.

I know it's a bit sooner than expected.

I mean, it's not like being married is a death sentence or anything.

Well, I don't know.

It depends who you end up with, I reckon.

Like, wrong person could be death.

Hey, where's, um, where's Hamish?

Is he coming tonight?

Yeah, he's with Simon.

Oh. Oh, no. Simon's coming straight from work so.

Work drink's more like it.

You know how those boys are.

They're probably both sloshed already.

God love them.

Oh, yeah.

Are you high?

This is a housewarming party, not rhythm and vines.

My boss offered.

Come on, I'm new, you know.

I couldn't not take it cause it'd be rude.

Yeah, or maybe it was a test.

Maybe he was seeing if his new employee was a drug user

and therefore a liability to the firm.

Did you think of that?

Come on, Stiffy.

Don't be like that. Don't call me stiffy.

And who are all these strange men that you have brought to my party?

Oh, fuck. It's a party, Stiffy.

It's my party. It is my party!

And there were invitations and a really strict RSVP process.

And it's just like ruining the ratio of men and women.

You smell like a sports bar.

- Okay, okay. - I'm sorry.

I am sorry, okay.

Look, what can I do to make it up to you?

I just wish you'd been honest with me.

Hey.

I know we're supposed to be mad at Simon,

but he's honestly turned this party around.

He's, like, saved our asses, you know?

I know, he's so affable.

He's like a human golden retriever.

He really is.

Meredith just asked me when we were gonna have kids.

Like, what the fuck is her problem?

She can't imagine that anyone else

would have different priorities from her like...

- Nat. - Okay.

Oh my God, Lily, please, can we just stop?

Can we just stop?

No no no no no. Nat, she's here.

What the fuck?

Yeah, she's chill. Yeah. Your parents still together?

- Yeah. - Oh. That's great.

- Outside outside outside outside. - Okay.

Oh my God. Sorry. Excuse us.

Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.

This is... This is just...

This is a disaster for you.

Oh.

Can you just, like, calm down for a second to give me

like a chance to panic a little bit for myself about this?

I thought you broke it off with her.

I did, I did, I did, I broke it off with her.

Right. So why'd you invite her?

No, no, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't invite her, like, I mean, I-I...

I guess I like well, I talked about the party in front of her,

but, like, I didn't think that she would come, you know,

to a party where my boyfriend is.

It's kind of hot.

No, no, no, no, it's not hot.

That's - that's not what it is like.

Like, this isn't one of your, like, horny stories

- that you like to read when... - You excuse me.

- It's sex positive feminist fanfic. - Basically porn.

But, you know, I'm happy for you.

But that's... That's not what this is.

Because this is a nightmare.

This is a nightmare that is happening in my house right now.

Hey, look, she's talking to Simon.

She's actually talking to Simon with, like, her, her real,

actual talking voice.

Right - Right at this moment, that's what's happening, right?

Okay. Yeah. Look, tell you what.

I'm just going to go and ask her to leave.

Yeah. You ask, you ask her to leave.

- You ask her to do that. - Yeah.

You tell her to leave.

- Right. - No, no, don't don't ask her to go.

Don't don't do that.

Um, because I can I can do it.

Actually, I'm gonna do it.

No, I was playing at a professional level.

I could have made a full blown career out of it.

I didn't realise that Frisbee throwing was a professional sport

in New Zealand.

- Oh, no, it's ultimate. - Sorry?

Ultimate. That's what we call it. Ultimate Ultimate Frisbee.

- Wow. - Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Ultimate. It's a great game.

It's really impressive actually.

It's my favourite.

Wow. Is it?

Yeah.

Mhm.

Hey, uh, this is Nat and this is John...

- Johnny. - ...ny.

And this, this is Steph. She's my squeeze.

- Hey. - Yeah, yeah, we've met before.

Ah, yeah, yeah.

We went to school together, a long, long time ago.

For an adventure.

We went to school and then did Spirit of Adventure.

Choir state challenge.

I don't know, we didn't do state challenge together.

Something, something, something, it was teenage.

Sort of formative teenage years.

I just can't really remember any of that.

It's all such a blur.

It's so crazy that you don't remember any of that.

Hey, um, the house is cool, isn't it?

I love all the, like, decor and stuff.

Thanks, yeah.

It's really, really come along and.

Oh, my God, the shower.

Have you had a shower here?

No, I haven't had a shower here yet.

- You must. - Really?

Yeah. It's great.

And whoever bought that shower curtain really must know, you know,

because it really fits in this house.

They've got great taste.

I know it suits the place, you know?

You know, I wouldn't worry too much about the shower curtain.

Like, I think when I bought it, it was kind of like an impulse buy

that I really sort of regret now.

And it's funny because I thought I actually did

pull that shower curtain down,

but somehow it's found its way back up again.

So strange.

Babe, it does - my opinion -

it sounds like a pretty cool shower curtain.

No, all my instincts are telling me that

that shower curtain is not for me.

Okay, well, if you're throwing it away, then, uh,

why don't you just give it to me and J, my fiance?

All right, well, that's the shower curtain all sorted.

Yeah.

Who is keen on a little bit of beer pong?

You are. No, you are.

- Yeah. - You're on, aren't you?

- John? - You're keen.

- You're not keen, are you? - No, I'm fine.

I'm good. Do what you want.

How clingy you are to me and stuff.

What are you doing?

- Hi, beautiful. - You need to leave.

Here we go. Right, here we go.

- Let's go, let's go. - This wasn't my idea.

I tried to stop it.

You should have tried to stop her more.

Well, she said that she just wanted to see you.

I don't want to have to fight this guy.

Look at his eyes. He's drugged up like a racehorse.

You're not gonna have to fight anyone.

Because I am gonna sort this out...

- Scull scull! - ...now.

Scull! Scull! Scull! Scull!

Nat, a word. Now.

Aw, sorry. Sorry.

- Sorry. - Oh, no. Don't be.

I'm Johnny.

I'm Nat's boyfriend. Fiance.

Fiance. Boyfriend.

- Right. Yeah. Yeah. - Yeah, yeah.

Sure you are.

Okay, you have to go.

You just have to leave.

Please, I am begging you.

I am ordering you to just go.

Come on, I was here when you guys were organising this thing.

You and Lily. I just wanted to pop by.

That's not true.

You're clearly here to play some kind of, like,

freaky mind game on me.

- And it is not working. - Freaky?

Yeah, yeah, it's not working.

I just wanted to see you.

- It's not true. - It's true.

You are here because you want Simon to find out about us.

He's not gonna find out. Come on.

We're just a couple of gal pals

that had a Spirit of Adventure together.

And now we're just here at this party

with our cute little boyfriends.

You said we could be friends.

Yeah, we can be friends.

But this is, like...

Friends getting...

- Just dance. - Stiffy!

- Stiffy? - Stiffs!

- Hey. - Hey hey.

- Hey. - Hey, baby.

Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey.

I just needed some fresh air, so I came out and did that.

Hey, you're not still mad at me, are ya?

Um, maybe a little bit.

No, I'm not. I'm good with you.

Feeling very good about everything, actually.

But I'm...

I just need a drink, so I'm gonna do that.

- Okay, everyone. - Yeah.

Oh, she's a good one, isn't she?

- She's a good one. Yeah. - Yeah.

You got no idea.

- Oh, my God, what happened? - I need a drink.

I need a drink. I need to, like, have a lot of drinks.

So that I can forget that this night has happened

while it is still happening.

Yeah. Okay. Whoo!

- And another one. - Whoa, yeah.

Oh, my God, this is like o-week. Yeah, all over.

Again. Big one, big one.

Ooh!

Okay.

I make my money Wasting my dreams

Trading my time for nothing good

Oh I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be so much more

So let me go, let me go, let me go Rock and roll

I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna lose control

Second time I'm gonna lose my mind

So let me go, let me go, let me go Rock and roll

Oh, what are you doing?

Ha ha ha ha ha!

I'm gonna get you. Come here. Where are you going?

That?

That's what you choose.

Steph.

Go after her!

Steph!

What do you even see in him?

Because it's clearly not his penis.

He's nice.

And he gets on well with my dad.

Oh, my God. He gets on with your dad.

Why don't you get him to date your dad then?

Do you even have sex with him?

Sometimes we do. Yes.

Sometimes?

Sometimes, Steph?

Because we - we have sex all the time.

Like day and night.

You know what, if I met your dad, he would like me

because I'm a master of a barbecue

and I keep his daughter satisfied.

Is it the gay thing?

No. It's not. It's not the gay thing.

Because being gay is really cool now.

Nat! It's not the gay thing.

It's not the gay thing. It's not the gay thing.

is that this is not who I am.

Like, I'm not just someone who, like, throws away

a perfectly nice relationship

and a frankly very good life plan.

- Just because... - Because?

Be...

Ah.

Because it's just not me, Nat.

Like, this just feels so, like, careless

and, like, messy and, like,

out of control and like, I just, I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know, I just feel like I don't know.

And I don't like it.

Well, I neither, okay.

And I, I feel exactly the same way.

And I just wonder if that's because that's what it feels

like to feel alive.

And you say this isn't you,

but I just feel like you don't know what you is.

Don't say that to me. You don't get to say that to me.

I just did.

I'm gonna say no to that one.

You're gonna say no to that one?

No, no, that one.

Because I do actually know myself.

Cool, going down the river of denial.

- I'm happy. - No, you are not happy.

- I am. - You aren't!

Because you break up with me,

and then you text me again the next day

and you're like, come over, come over.

And you're so rigidly hung up on this fucking keep cutting

farmer's market tent dress version of your life,

when really you were just scared to be fucking happy.

You're just tormenting yourself because you're a fucking chicken.

I am... I am not a chicken.

- You are. - I'm not a chicken.

You are a scaredy little chicken pants.

I'm a lot of chicken pants.

- I mean. - Stephanie.

Do throw that at me! I am not.

I am not a scaredy little chicken.

I am not a scaredy little chicken!

- Oh, fuck. - Oh, shit.

That's really bad.

Yeah.

Come on. Go go go go go.

Shit!

Oh my God, is anyone following us?

Is anyone following us?

Oh, my God!

Oh, God.

Oh!

You make me want to plan stuff.

Are you still thinking about the window?

Yeah, I just remembered that there could be CCTV footage.

- I just, I like, I just can't get... - Come on

- ...convicted, I'm a lawyer... - Come on, let's go back.

...I'll get disbarred and need a new career.

You won't get arrested.

Oh, I'll get arrested.

That young love been broke a thousand times

And when I get close it's on the verge of dying

Don't let it go

You can connect it up with mine

With a jump start

I'll boost your heart up with a jump start...

I wanna keep feeling alive.

With you.

..with a jump start.

I am properly in love with you.

You are?

My God, you are so bad at being led.

You drag me out of bed in the middle of the night.

Shush shush shush shush shush shush shush.

Okay.

Are you ready?

Ta da!

Why the fuck did you bring me back here?

Well, you can follow me and find out.

Steph, I'm not following you.

There'll be security and we'll get arrested.

Oh, come on, come on, come on.

Hey, stop being such a scaredy little chicken pants.

Make love to me.

Okay.

Okay.

Come on.

Come on down.

I'm stuck. No. Don't pull...

- You're right? - Yeah. Okay.

Nice. Okay.

Whoo!

- You okay? - It's just a light.

Here we go.

Oh my God!

Oh, God.

Oh!

Oh, this is so cool.

Check this out.

This...

It's - I - I get it.

This... This is amazing.

This is an amazing stadium!

Oh, my God, it echoes so much.

We've gotta go, we've gotta go!

No, stop. Stop! Stop. Please stop. Please stop.

Okay, I just, um, I have to tell you something before we go,

so I'll be quick.

The last time that we were here was bad.

It was really bad.

And the reason it was bad is because I was scared.

I was so scared at what was in front of us

and like the enormity of it.

And I just...

I couldn't see how we were going to do it.

And then when the boys were born,

well, I was just hoping that I would just feel better,

but I - I didn't I haven't. I haven't felt better.

I've just continued to feel so scared all the time

about getting things wrong.

So I just like desperately, I desperately try to get them right.

And I like hold on to life so tightly.

And that has just made me into this person

that I'm not proud of.

A person who made you think that you were the problem

and that, like, I would be better off without you.

Which is just, like, horrific.

So I know that I can't - I can't take that back.

I wish I could, but I can't, but I just I want to have another go.

Okay, so...

Net you are the best thing that has ever happened to me.

You are.

You were the one who taught me to follow my heart

and how to find joy.

You taught me... You taught me this.

You taught me how to find the joy that is you.

That is you.

You.

And now, seeing you with our boys,

you are just the most incredible mum.

And you give so much to them.

And we need you.

We need you.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa.

Steph, what are you...?

Natalie Ruby King, will you marry me?

What the fuck?

Yeah, will you marry me?

You don't even believe in marriage.

No, I thought I didn't,

but I think I was just scared

because I'm scared of everything, but I just...

I don't want to be scared anymore.

I'm all in.

No matter what.

Oh my God, please say something.

Yes, yes.

Yes yes.

Dumb luck...

She said yes!

- She said yes. - Oy, you two!

Hey!

...I wanna take you out

There must be some reason it feels this good

All these good feelings

Then I understood

And I am falling into

Doesn't confuse kick it with you

With you With you...
