[cars honk, airport noise]

[car radio plays Colombian music]

[taxi driver in Spanish] Welcome to Colombia.

NEEL: Uh, just for fun.

Tourism.

Tourism?

Ah, the joy of life?

Did you come to enjoy it?

NEEL: Vida, life. Yeah?

So, is it true what I read?

People are happy here.

Ah, you don't speak Spanish?

I don't speak English.

Don't worry, you'll still have fun.

NEEL: Uh...

[upbeat music playing]

Look, what pretty women...

NEEL: No, no, no. No chicas.

Uh, I'm here for like, a different kind of fun, I guess.

To... uh, “explorar”.

- Um... - What?

Have you ever done ayahuasca?

Uh, I think, you guys call it...

...yagé.

[laughs]

Marijuana, eh? The drug for your head?

No, no.

More like a therapeutic kind, like a retreat,

with... like a shaman, you know, for...

Sure, the gringo dope fiend wants to do drugs.

The gringo is a dope fiend, that's what he is.

Never mind.

[happy instrumental music]

[unintelligible]

[door opens]

[music ends]

NEEL: Yo, Curt!

Look at this spot, man.

Look at this view.

We got everything we need.

We got a kitchen.

We got a sink.

We got a bedroom.

Oh, man, one, two, three different bedrooms.

I'm claiming this one though because it's got THE view.

[soft, pensive music]

[scribbling] [music fades away]

[Knocking]

[Knocking]

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[book thump]

[snaps]

[Knocking]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm sorry.

[door opens]

- He... hey! CURT: - What's up?

- What's up, man? - Ah, good to see you, man.

- So good to see you. - Good to see you, man.

- Yo. - Dang.

- Right? - We made it. Oh, wow.

- Nice. - Right?

Oh, yeah. Oh, this is dope.

- You know what else is dope? - I like this.

One of these.

I thought we retired these.

Yeah, and I bought new ones.

[upbeat Colombian music]

CURT: Do you know where you're going

or are we just walking any which way?

NEEL: Does it matter?

I mean, kind of. I could use something to eat.

And then, I don't know if it's
like the altitude or, or what,

but, I feel weird. Like my breathing is funny.

- Is your breathing funny? - Not anymore.

- Like, I don't... I just...

I don't know how to explain it. - Take these.

Drown it with this.

I guess when you said not to worry about anything...

Look, man,

then, we'll get some food to go,

you'll be feeling a hundred percent.

How about we do a sit-down place?

You know, commemorate the first night.

And we hit the ground running - Yeah, yeah,

to hit the ground running,

we need to know the lay of the land.

The only way to do that is to explore.

I'm only listening 'cause you're paying for this.

What you're going to get?

[in Spanish] Good afternoon! Welcome to the...

You know, let's take a seat so I can eat this damn thing.

You haven't started yet?

NEEL: Still got it.

[sound of boxing]

Are you good?

Neel?

- You alright? - Of course.

I just, uh...

I just want to see as much as I can while we're here, know?

Well, we got a week, man. Don't overdo it.

So, is work keeping you busy?

Yeah, actually, um, I just had to turn down the job

because of the Vancouver one.

Man, I wish mine was as exciting.

No, no, yours is steady. Steady is good.

[street sounds, music playing]

[music fades away]

Starting to feel like I made a mistake

not booking us by the La Candelaria or whatever.

This place just seemed so touristy,

the other place only had hostels and

I didn't want to sleep in a cot, but...

No one escapes the colonizers, man.

[party music playing from afar]

You hear that?

[honking, city noise, music]

I don't hear anything.

Don't worry, we don't need to go inside.

I just want to see what it is.

What are you even talking about?

[party music playing from the bar]

You didn't come here because it was cheap.

So, what's up?

Is this like a midlife crisis?

Some Eat Pray Love shit? What's going on?

Uh... I don't know.

Maybe I'm looking for a spark.

Don't know what for.

Fun, maybe.

Everything I've read about this place,

Everyone that lives here no matter how small or

mundane their lives,

they always know how to have a good time.

Seems a little oversimplified, don't you think?

Yeah, but I'm still hoping it'd rub off.

In a week?

You know, it takes 21 days to form a habit.

Ah, come on, man.

What about all those people

that change their lives in a day?

Split-second epiphanies?

I can't force that. - Come on, Curt.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Let's go!

- Oh, crap. - Oh, shit.

Oh, sorry.

Lo siento.

You alright?

Are you American?

- Yes. - Uh, sí.

Yeah, I mean, yes.

- You? - Um, sí.

From Florida.

Um, honestly, no worries.

I wasn't even looking and...

No, I was like so caught up in the music and...

You know what, uh, both our fault.

Fair, fair enough.

Wait, so, so you like Systema Solar?

Is that who this is?

- Yeah, they are so cool. - They are amazing.

- They're American, too. - Oh, wow.

From LA.

- How long have you, guys... - Everyone's okay?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

They're inside. Waiting. So, we should go...

CURT: Nice to meet you.

- Okay, uh, see you. - See you.

- Hasta luego! - Yup.

Have a good night.

All good.

- That was weird. - Yeah.

- What was that? - I should ask you.

What the...?

Sophia, come on!

[party music continuously playing]

Huh...

Here we go.

VIOLET: My god, it's going to be so fun.

Hmm, it's a... it's a little different.

It's beautiful.

I mean, it's nice, but I just...

- Come on. - Alright.

[loud music playing]

[inaudible]

[shaking]

[glasses clink] [inaudible conversations]

[patrons hollering]

[inaudible conversations]

[music ends]

Alright.

So, are we calling a cab or an Uber?

Uh, uh, uh, uh, I am not walking.

My feet are killing me.

No, no, no.

Not home, not yet.

Yes!

Seriously, another club?

- Come on. - We only have so many days.

Yeah, and I'm not looking to be hungover.

Uh god, girl, you do realize
this is a bachelorette party?

Exactly.

You chose Colombia because of its divine culture

and you said you wanted
to experience its spirituality.

And you said that you wanted to see

all the things that I did while I studied here.

- True. - Yeah.

And she did more than party.

She talked about museums and parks

and her host family.

Oh, Mamacita, don't you worry.

We will manage everything and we will get you there.

Okay.

- So we're off to the next spot. - Vamanos!

CURT: Listening To Ayahuasca.

Isn't ayahuasca for people with PTSD and depression?

You know, that was already here so I just kind of...

I skimmed it 'cuz, you know, I was waiting on...

I was waiting for you.

It's your fault.

Okay. Don't be so nervous, man.

You act like I caught you playing with yourself.

No, I just...

I don't want you to think I'm depressed.

So, you're not?

No, man.

- Okay. - No.

Good night.

I'll clean up, okay?

[emotional background music]

[beer cracks open]

Why am I lying to Curt?

It's just ayahuasca.

[silence]

[lively Colombian music]

[pen drops]

[rooster crow alarm]

- VIOLET: Come on. - No.

Rise and shine.

The sun's not even out.

We're in Colombia, ladies.

Come on.

HARPER: Oh, you are superhuman if you are not hungover.

[groans]

VIOLET: Well, this will help sober you up.

I'm tired. I am not hungover.

We can't sleep the whole day away, okay?

El gusto de la vida.

Reiterate that to Sophia.

I know, right? Sophia, wake up!

Give me a sec.

Taking so long.

- Is that for me? - Oh, yeah.

So, if it was up to me, we wouldn't be moving.

I know. I mean,

change is inevitable,

especially after you are married.

Not everything changes.

- Uh. - Okay.

Sorry, you know what,

I know that's all the stress

from the wedding planning and everything,

so, let's just blow off some stress.

One last blowout isn't going to stop everything.

I mean, that's not a dig.

No, I... and it doesn't mean we can't have fun.

What are you saying?

I'm saying I'm not mad at you for moving to Memphis.

SOPHIA: Mmm, smells so good.

Oh, okay.

I see why Jude put a ring on it.

Wifey material right here. Okay?

[horn honks from outside]
[lighthearted Colombian music]

[sighs]

Yo... Curt?

Yo.

He seriously left without me?

[unintelligible conversations]

[door shuts]

Neel?

Yo, Neel?

[phone vibrates]

[music ends]

SOPHIA: - I don't know I was a... VIOLET: - Hey, you.

Yoo-hoo! Yeah, you.

- Are you stalking us? - No, no, no, no.

God, no, no, I, I... - I'm kidding.

I'm actually looking for my friend.

- We haven't seen him. - No, sorry.

That's alright.

I'm sure he's around here somewhere.

I'm Neel, by the way.

VIOLET: - Oh, um, I'm Violet.

Oh, this is Sophia and this is Harper.

So, what brings you to Bogotá?

So, I studied here and honestly had the best time.

It was so awesome so I had to bring

my girls for my bachelorette.

Yeah, hey, wait.

So, you must know the area pretty well, right?

Yeah.

Any suggestions beyond the local tourist traps?

What are you looking for?

I'm up for anything.

Well, we are having our own paseo today.

It means we're hiking.

[Neel chuckles] Okay, got it. Thanks.

Yeah. Um, Sindamanoy.

I mean, it must be good. I've never heard of it.

- I do know all the hidden gems. - She does.

Uh, do you care maybe writing some down for me?

Aren't you supposed to be looking for your friend?

Sorry, that came out harsh.

No, no, no, you... she's right.

Just stick to Usaquen. It's amazing here.

And avoid Candelaria

unless you're going to see the museums.

And, just don't go south.

No, just go have fun.

- Okay. - Go do it.

- Alright. - Awesome.

- Awesome. - Okay.

- Well, we'll see you, okay? - Bye.

-Why are you being so rude? - I don't want him to get the

wrong impression. We're not here to hook up.

Excuse me. Some of us are.

But, she's not and that's who he's eyeing.

- No, he wasn't. - Yes, he was.

CURT: Yo!

He-hey, I finally found you, man.

- Found me? - Yeah.

You missed my note.

Who leaves a note?

The Airbnb's got Wi-Fi.

How does that help us here?

Why don't we just stay together...

- Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah.

How about you get my strawberries you promised?

HARPER: Are we supposed to be here?

- Oh, yeah, we're good. - You sure?

It's one of my secret spots, so we're good.

[soft background music] [panting]

[birds chirping]

VIOLET: Oh, man.

SOPHIA:- Definitely worth it.
HARPER:- It is a fantastic view.

VIOLET: Wait 'til La Calera. That will blow you away.

See, these are more of my speed.

Oh, my god, you sound like such abuelita!

OK, not wanting to do things we did in high school?

That does not make me old.

Yeah, but life doesn't stop just because we get older.

I didn't say it did.

You know, there's a saying that goes,

the trick to aging gracefully is to enjoy it.

- Thought about that? - Mm-hmm.

Oh, there's plenty I enjoy apart from partying.

I mean, aren't you the one always talking about

how we need to examine the deeper aspects of life.

Yeah, but, you also got to know when to let loose.

Otherwise, what's the point?

The point is that people let loose in different ways,

and it's okay to disagree on those things.

- Yeah, but... - Okay, you're both right!

There may be things that we don't always agree on,

but we make concessions.

Okay, point taken.

I will loosen up and go with
whatever call you two make.

Aww.

I cannot wait til you're

más prendido que arbolito de navidad.

Okay, you know,

the sting of my parents making me learn French,

it just hurts. - Aw...

- More and more every day.

- It's okay. - Oh, Chiquita.

CURT: So, Cozzair...

Oh, up in the... Yeah.

- Cozzair. - Am I saying that right?

- Cozzair. - Cozzair.

No, you're not, you don't know what that is.

CURT: No clue.

This part of your tour?

No, no.

CURT: It's interesting.

Every time I see a cemetery,

I always wonder about like

how many of those people buried there

Do you think people still even think about it?

I don't know, I guess that's why they say...

live in the moment, you know, screw the rest.

Yeah?

That's the mentality

that allows people to be bullfighters.

Bull fighters?

Yeah. It's like a really big thing here.

No, but you want to be a bullfighter?

No. God, no.

No, I just...

...wish I knew what it felt like to have the balls

to do something like that. - Yeah, I'm good with not dying.

So, you're a simple guy, Do you know that?

I try my best.

Yeah, but...

how, how do you keep it so simple, man?

I don't know. Um, go with my gut, I guess?

If it feels right, do it, and if not...

you know.

You wanna go on a hike?

So,

are there any myths or legends about this place?

I'll be sure to ask.

No seas boba.

Que te folle un pez.

So, are you at least reading the Gabo book I gave you?

I let Harper read it.

And, I'm two chapters in.

Well, keep reading it, maybe it'll encourage her.

VIOLET: I want to experience things.

Not read about them. - I mean, it does make seeing

the things more interesting.

[birds continue to chirp]

You know, what you said
about change being inevitable,

...it's not.

Like this place, it hasn't changed much.

Not really.

And, you know, when I first came out here,

that was something I noticed,
like people were just so...

joyous and warm.

Okay, that doesn't mean that they don't move on,

or have their own problems.

I know, but it's different, you know... like...

Like at Lucia's, you'll see.

It'll be packed with family and friends,

because no matter what,

they always like are there for each other.

And then, when somebody new comes in,

they completely take you in.

Like you've been there forever.

You don't think that's a bit romanticized.

That doesn't make it untrue.

I don't know. That's just what
I love most about this place.

Their spontaneity comes from embracing life and...

sticking together.

So, was I just supposed to spontaneously embrace

you moving when you didn't even tell me?

Harper, I just want you to be Happy for me.

I mean, how can I be when you don't seem to be.

Oh, my god, look who it is.

Did you know they were going to be here?

Come on, it's good to make friends.

I am beginning to think that you are stalking us.

No, no, I mean, but come on, you guys did build up this hike.

Yeah. So, did it live up to all of your expectations?

Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, the view back there was

absolutely incredible.

Oh, uh, Sophia, Curt, Curt, uh, Sophia.

Nice to meet you. - Cool shirt.

- Thank you.

Oh, and this is Harper and Violet.

This is Curt. - Hi, friends.

This is the Bachelorette.

Oh... congrats.

Thank you.

So, what, y'all give up on this hike already?

Oh, no.

We're just taking a little break.

VIOLET: Yeah.

Could we join you? We could definitely use one.

Sure.

Yeah, perfect.

Of course. Come on.

Go, stickman. You got it.

Oh, I'm good. Thank you.

Okay. Are you sure?

Yeah. He likes what he likes.

And, I don't what I don't.

Okay, well, you are cutting yourself off

from trying anything.

I don't need to take shit to know I won't like it.

Okay.

Sorry, that was gross.

No, that's fine. Gross humor is fine by us.

- Really? - Nothing perverted.

[girls chuckle] I'm kidding. Just relax.

- Okay. - Although...

Harper has been known...

to steal guys' clothes. - Oh, don't skew facts.

Back in high school one time.

You all know each other since high school?

Oh, yeah.

Kindergarten through graduation.

And you?

- College. - No, no, hold on.

We are not skipping the story.

I want to hear it.

Okay, so...

we were at a party

with some guys from another high school

and these two

decided to mess with them, and...

dared them to try their bikinis.
Then they stole their clothes.

Literally, she had no idea what was happening?

So I'm running down the stairs

and I'm like, "Throw her the clothes..."

And I see these guys ready to tackle me.

You should have seen her face.

At least I got you out in time though.

Remember?

Sorry. I guess you just had to be there.

No, no.

It's those stories that make the best memories.

- Right? - Yeah.

As long as you don't try to steal our clothes.

- Mm-hmm. - Just you wait.

Mwa-ha-ha-ha.

Unless you tell us a crazy college story.

'Cuz then otherwise... - Yeah, that's a good idea.

I'd pay money to get out of that one.

Oh, deal.

Let's go.

I know a spot for Almuerzo. It means lunch.

So, go.

She got you.

Let's go eat.

Want to see the real Colombia? Here we go.

It was the place I was telling you we had to try.

Oh, yeah.

And the best part about it

is that we don't even have to pay for it.

A sucker is born every minute.

You make it sound like Sirens.

The Greek ones?

Sophia likes to pride herself in many world views.

She calls it like the path to enlightenment?

Mock all you want,

it's just a reflection of your own fears.

[music fades up]

Gracias.

Oh, my god, those...

I don't know what's what.

That's sweet and when I eat that...

[music fades away]

- How about you? - Oh, me? I do gig of work.

Not like Amazon or Postmates, right?

No, Ms. Judgey.

Hey, I'm judgey for the corporations,

not the people forced to work for them, right?

Mm.

Well, no. I mean like film gigs.

- Ooh! - Yeah, he's, uh, big time.

- Okay. - No, no, no.

It's like, I'm freelance.

I do grip work.

I just hang lights and stuff.

And then, I also edit on the side.

Is it stable, freelancing like that?

Um, not at first, but then, after a while,

you meet people and then they start calling and...

Hmm... cool.

He just finished a gig in Atlanta,

and after we're done here,

he is going to go to Vancouver. - Oh!

Trust me, you guys are much better off with your jobs.

Maybe you're just saying that
so we don't get in on the fun.

Oh, you can have my next gig.

If I thought you weren't joking, I'd take you up on that.

So, Neel, are you also in entertainment?

Uh, no.

My job would probably bore you.

Is that modesty or self-deprecation?

Maybe a little bit of both.

It's just a job. It's not like it defines you.

I'm um... I'm a surgeon.

- Wow. - Neurology.

Neurosurgeon, kind of a cliche...

- I thought it didn't define me. - It depends.

Was it forced or did you actually, pick it?

Uh...

[in Spanish] Call the bread bread and the wine wine.

True.

Means she's a straight talker.

It sounds like she's being critical.

I thought the self-enlightened
weren't supposed to do that.

She's still working on it.

So, how well do you know the brain?

Um, what do you mean?

Do you know the mind-gut connection

or how the vagus nerve
works on a psychological level?

Wow.

You really know your stuff.

Uh, but if I were to get deep in it,

it would probably put you all to sleep.

So, how about a non-work topic?

Okay.

Why don't you tell us one of your wild college stories?

I thought that was the point of this meal!

[chuckling]

I think I'd have to be a little more drunk than this.

Oh, really? OK, I can order some drinks.

Excuse me, miss.

Okay. Uh, sorry.

Um... you know,

you... probably had to be there to appreciate it.

Ugh, lame.

Alright, fine.

Um, let me think of a good one.

If you had to think about it,

then there's probably not that many good ones.

Or... there's so many good ones that I just can't choose.

Or, we could talk about, um,
what else is on your guys' list?

Museums, or?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

What else do you guys are planning to see?

OK, well, thank you.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. Hold on.

You guys have to try Canelazo.

Canelazo?

Yeah, it's a Colombian drink.

It's so good. You'll love it.

- I'm good personally. - Come on, man.

Try something new.

Yeah, and I can show you guys all the touristy stuff

that we can get it out of the way.

Yes.

- Yes. - Right?

I am so full. [cheerful music kicks in]

I don't know if I can eat any more.

I don't see this drink anymore.

They used to have this amazing drink.

Don't...

- It was to die for. But... [inaudible]

[upbeat, happy Colombian music]

[inaudible talking]

[inaudible dialog]

[inaudible] [music ends]

[inaudible dialog] [laughter]

Well, uh, thanks for letting us crash your day.

- Oh, what choice did I have? - Neither did I.

Hey, you guys keep up!

- Yeah. - Why?

Drinks at ours.

Just say the word and we'll leave.

That's okay.

[party music playing]

Hey, you can relax. [laughs]

Is he always like that?

I'll play this song for you guys.

[loud dance music comes on]

I'll do it.

Come on.

- Whatcha writing? - Uh, nothing.

You know, random thoughts. - Nice.

- I do that sometimes. - Yeah?

- Uh, yeah, I mean

you tell me yours, I'll tell you mine.

Um... you know, just big picture stuff like,

how I wish I could escape my thoughts for just a bit

and just like "be."

That's the problem, isn't it?

Everywhere you go, there you are.

- That's a good one. - Feel free to write it down.

I didn't even come up with it though.

It came from one of Sophia's books.

Yeah, she really does know a lot, huh?

Uh, on some things.

- Ayahuasca... - Ayahuasca?

- Ah, sorry. So, so random... - Ah, thinking of trying it?

Just a thought.

I mean ask her, maybe she does.

So cool you guys are able to stay so close

post-high school.

I mean, living close makes it easier.

Yeah, yeah. That does help.

Yeah, I'm like so happy for
Curt and all the work he's getting,

but just makes it so hard for us to ever see each other.

Yeah, and everything changes eventually.

Is that what you'd write down?

Um...

Don't read too much into things.

If you're talking about Violet, I'm not...

Ah, you interpreted it that way.

But, since you mentioned her,

I just know that she's just
trying to figure everything out.

Just like the rest of us.

CURT: Hey, man.

Had them play your song you didn't even blink.

- Damn, that's a good memory! - What are you doing?

Come on.

So, does that mean you're going to dance?

If I did, I'd show everyone up.

Uh, uh, uh, no one escapes fiesta time!

CURT: - Okay, I owe you a college story, right?

Back in the day, whoever wears
the captain hat makes the rules.

Okay. It means I'm the captain

and it means you have to dance.

[Systema Solar song ramps up]

Oh, you too, Mamacita.

CURT: You better salsa boy. - Stop it.

I mean, but why are you so stiff?

- I... - You go like this.

- Alright, okay. - Curt said you like this song.

- I... I do.

- What do you like about it? - I don't know, the energy?

It just like reminds me of Colombia.

Okay, then use that.

Did you hear that part?

- Yeah. - Okay. Move your hips.

[singers in foreign language]

Okay, okay.

Mamacita.

[inaudible conversations]

[laughter]

[festive instrumental music]

[Systema Solar music trails off]

[birds chatter]

[melancholy music]

[celebratory chatter]

[glass clinking]

[music speeds up, intensifies]

SOPHIA: Get it, Neel.

[exhales]

[clicks tongue]

[sighs]

[melancholy music shifts to a more lively tone]

[music softens]

[Knocking] Yo!

[music ends]

NEEL: Yeah, give me five.

Alright, we got to find that spark today.

[upbeat Colombian music]

[music kicks into high gear]

[inaudible dialog]

[inaudible]

[music shifts to a slow, mystical tone]

GUIDE: Magical, isn't it?

NEEL: Yeah, yeah.

It's got a real dream-like quality.

Perhaps if that white man came here, he would've

cured himself.

Sorry, what?

The indigenous tribes have
a story of a sick white man

who was told that to be cured, all he needed was to

learn a dream, but... he never did.

NEEL: That's depressing.

GUIDE: Don't worry. You're not white.

There's got to be more to it.

Maybe, how you perceive it

tells you exactly what type of person you are.

Doubtful but fun.

So, Violet, who are you? The toad or the deer?

[upbeat music picks up]

[inaudible]

[inaudible]

[inaudible]

So is this the change of pace you wanted?

Yeah.

Yeah, this is good.

No epiphany yet though, huh?

It'll come though.

Thinking there's a quick fix is your problem.

Quick fix?

I just need to recharge

before going back to school again, man.

Recharge?

Because the other day you said you needed a spark.

It's the same thing, right?

Like neurosurgeon and hygienist?

Alright, yeah. So...

I thought it'd be better to lie
than say I want to be a dentist.

You could've come up with a cooler lie, you know.

Jet pilot, a firefighter, crypto millionaire.

Okay, okay, man, I get it!

I get it. Even my made-up stories suck.

[chuckles]

I'm just saying, man. Why do you care?

You're better off just being yourself.

Why you're trying to impress people.

Gosh.

Even this trip,

like why would you pay for it?

I don't know, man.

I... I didn't think you'd come otherwise.

Now, you'll never know.

You're stuck thinking you have to pay

for my friendship.

What's going on, man?

I know you're pretending like everything's alright.

Because something's missing
and it shouldn't be, right?

Like I've done everything by the book since day one,

and all I have to show for it is what? Student debt.

And the same dull-ass job that I've ever had. And,

I look around and everyone in
my life is just moving forward

and I'm stuck.

And the only way to get unstuck, more school, more debt.

So, I have a shot at becoming what? A dentist?

And, and, and what do I do then?

I got to take out another loan

so I can open up my own practice

because that's what dentists do!

And, if I say dentist one more time,

I'm going to blow my brains out.

And all the while, the world just...

keeps going to shit.

That's crap you're telling yourself, man.

I just want to be happy, man.

I'm always caught thinking
about the next thing and the next.

Doesn't it bother you that we could go through

all of this,

at the end of the day, when we're old enough to retire,

we have the time to do what we want

and the money to do what we want.

And then all just taken away, because what?

A market crash, or cancer, or COVID?

Yes, yes.

But, all of that is out of our control.

I want to know where I'm going.

I want to be able to enjoy it.

I have no doubt you will find it,

whatever it is for you.

All I was trying to say is don't
make it about other people

because Violet ain't it.

That's not how I think of her.

It's, it's not.

Then why did you lie to impress her?

[footsteps]

Ooh.

Okay.

Don't ruin a good day by telling me

I've had too many.

Seriously?

Well, I saw you were about to say something.

And, that was what I was about to say.

Okay.

Harper, what were you going to say?

Harper!?

[somber background music]

[scribbling]

SOPHIA: You're thinking about Violet.

HARPER: I'm not looking for any of your spiritual

pick-me-ups right now.

SOPHIA: Well, that's exactly what you're going to get,

Scoot over... Come on.

Now, tell me, tell me all about it.

It's just I don't have the same relationship with her.

Let's just leave it at that.

Harper, you guys used to be roommates and

you still live in the same town together.

HARPER: Mm, not for long.

And, I can't drop into a
private conversation in Spanish

anytime I want. - Mm.

And, you see her more now than I do.

Yeah, because we make it work.

Yeah, because you are the fun one...

and I'm the nagging one. - Oh, come on.

You don't mean that.

You're always selling yourself short.

Hey, look at me.

You know the move is eating at her too.

SOPHIA: Why do you think that
Does she avoid talking about it?

You know, this is just all a distraction.

HARPER: Maybe that's all high school was.

Maybe our relationship has run its course.

Maybe it wasn't even supposed to last this long.

SOPHIA: You don't mean that.

[scribbling]

Well, I do know that, distractions

have consequences.

I'll go to bed.

- Good night. - Alright.

- Love you.

[music fades out]

[mild traffic]

SOPHIA: Oh, my god, you guys.

Look how pretty.

Look. [mischievous music]

- So gorgeous. - Always.

This one's really cool.

Hmm.

She loves that one.

If you want, you can invite them to Mirador.

I can be spontaneous.

SOPHIA: You guys, hurry up?

Come on.

- HARPER: Once in a while. - VIOLET: Once in a while.

Isn't this amazing?

[bright jazz playing]

Oh, um, the woman at the museum,

she told us this story that stuck in my head.

So, this toad challenges a deer to a race...

Is this like "The Colombian

Tortoise and The Hare"?

Not quite, but you'll see.

The toad bets the deer a lot of
money and they start the race.

Of course, the deer being fast,

he takes off like lightning and he gets yards ahead

and turns around. Doesn't see Toad anywhere.

So, he's like, "Toad, where are you?"

Nothing.

Then suddenly he hears, "Right here ahead of you."

He whips around and sure enough, the toad is ahead.

He takes off like lightning again

and he passes him up,

he's yards ahead and he yells out again,

"Toad, where are you?"

And again, Toad's nowhere ready to be found.

He thinks he's safe.

Then all of a sudden, he hears, "Right here ahead of you."

And again, he passes him up.

- This goes on and on... - Wait, hold on.

Sorry. Is this a riddle?

That's what I thought.

Well, you both thought wrong.

What had happened was the Toad "toad" his friends

[Neel laughs]

to hide in the bushes along the way

and to pop out whenever they hear the deer. So.

So, the moral of the story is
to cheat to win money, right?

No.

- What? - I think it means...

sometimes we trick people into believing things

about ourselves that aren't true.

Mm, that's not bad actually.

- Good job. - Yeah, but we decided

that it'd be more fun to see who's who?

Well, no, technically, you decided, so.

True, okay.

Um, so which one are you?

The inventive cutthroat toad...

or the arrogant and naive deer?

- Me? - Well, no, I'm just me.

Come on. Or, I'll pick one for you.

- Go for it. - Okay, cool.

- You are a deer, like Harper. - Wow.

I mean, look, your actions speak louder than words,

but... you don't always see the full picture.

Oh.

Interesting. See, I thought that I'd be the deer.

No, you're always thinking.

- So, I'm a toad? - Yup.

Well, if I'm a toad, you're a toad.

- How? - Because, um...

you are in charge of literally
every situation we're in.

- I mean... - Interesting,

but I'm personally still debating it.

[Sophia laughs] - Sophia here...

she's the toad.

This is why I don't even like this take on it

because this forces people into binary choices.

[inaudible]

[indiscernible talk] VIOLET: This is so cute.

NEEL: So we don't have much in terms of drinks

and other offerings,

but, you know, make yourselves at home.

VIOLET: I mean, I think that'll do.

Do you concur First Mate?

Yes.

SOPHIA: Wow, I haven't read this one.

Do you like it?

- Oh, uh, yeah. I mean, I...

I, I found that here, but, um, I, I did, I did skim it.

Okay.

You know, this is what's so messed up about

American medicine. It's so myopic.

More people should read Schulte's work.

Especially neurosurgeons. [slams book]

As fun as all of that sounds,

you know, um... thank you.

I think we should play "Two Truths and a Lie."

- Yeah. - Okay.

Yeah.

CURT: Okay, okay. Alright. Alright.

Um, so I lost a bet and had to streak on a crowded beach.

Um, I quit my job in hopes to become Spider-Man...

and I found out

the girl who I lost my virginity to

was cheating on me.

Good luck.

Uh, the first one reminds me of a story from earlier,

so that's a lie.

CURT: She's right.

VIOLET: Um, okay. Um, I'll go.

So, I'm going to Memphis soon.

I've done ayahuasca with Sophia. - Mm-hmm.

Look, if you think you can read my face, good luck.

No, no, no, no, no.

I've done nude photography.

NEEL: Alright. Well, I know that she's bold.

So, I'm going to with the first one.

CURT: I'm going to go with the ayahuasca.

It's too coincidental.

Curt's right! [laughter]

Wait, hold on, hold on, hold on.

So, is this the thing where it's like a play on words

where you've done ayahuasca,
but you haven't done it together,

just trying to trick us?

No, neither one of us has done it.

But, I mean, it would be kind of fun though.

I mean... - No, it's not meant to be fun.

You know what I mean? - I mean...

- Yeah, but wait a minute!

You never told me you did nude photography?

Unless you mean the pics that you sent to Jude

because that doesn't count. - No.

Come on.

No, I wasn't the nude one, I was the one taking the photos.

I mean, you know, I did photography

while I was out here.

- Yeah, but I didn't know you did it

to this extent. Good for you!

CURT: I popcorn it to...

Sophia.

Oh.

- Oh. - Oh, okay.

In your opinion, what's Jude really like?

Don't look at me like... I want to know,

I just want to know what makes
a woman to tie herself down.

From a non-esoteric viewpoint.

- Okay... well... - And, be honest.

I mean, of course.

Um, well, uh, he's a little standard.

CURT: Standard, okay.

I mean, he is a CPA after all

and I mean he certainly is nice in his own way.

I mean... A nice guy.

He's certainly good-looking, am I right?

CURT: Okay, alright. Here you go.

Okay. I popcorn it over to Neel.

Okay.

And, my question to you is if Violet wasn't engaged,

would you have made a move?

Uh, I...

Hypothe... Hypothetically, sure.

- That's it? - What are you looking for?

I don't... know, um,

something a little bit more meaningful?

Drop it.

I, uh... popcorn it over to Harper.

Ah, shoot.

SOPHIA: He is so good. CURT: Next time I'll show you...

- Oh, yeah. - Okay.

- NEEL: Wow. - CURT: Yeah.

More promises from this guy.

No, thank you. OK.

Mm-hmm.

Well, thank you, guys.

Bye. Goodnight.

Goodnight.

You know, so I should probably walk you all home, right?

Hmm, we are strong independent women.

- Don't worry. - Exactly.

VIOLET: I think we'll be alright.

It's also close.

NEEL: Still.

Well, who would walk you home?

- Goodnight. - Hey, hey, hey.

Alright, hold it.

Yeah, it's good.

Oh, and then, um, tomorrow

we'll go see Lucia and the family.

Oh, uh, have you... given our heads up yet?

No, I mean, it'll be fine.

We could just show up.

- Lucia is her former host. - I got it.

I was telling Sophia about it,

about the arepas that she makes. That Lucia makes.

The ones with [unintelligible]... They were...

Girl, oh my god, you're going to love those.

I, uh, never thanked you for inviting us today.

You're welcome. It was fun.

[music slows, saddens]

I feel like there's a "but" coming on.

But it'll have to end.

Don't read into things too much.

It's just fun. And, yes,

- I am using your words... - Uh-huh.

- against you.

[Violet and Sophia chatting]

Sometimes fun makes things...

hurt more in the end.

Harper, I'm not getting attached.

Why do you assume I'm talking about you?

Violet?

You say something?

Just reminiscing on the night.

[romantic music]

[horns in the distance]

Well, thanks for escorting us.

Yeah, no problem. I'll, uh... [music fades away]

Well, uh, good night.

- SOPHIA: Buenas noches.

- Good night. - Bye.

[ominous guitar music]

You said something to Neel.
And I don't mean just talking.

I thanked him for a fun night.

That's not it.

Look, I told you I didn't want him getting

the wrong impression. - Oh, my god!

[music picks up pace]

[footsteps running]

Hey, what did Harper say to you?

[music softens]

That I should forget about you.

Oh, my god!

You know, I thought we were good,

her and I, but she...

She still thinks I need protection.

It's so none of my business.

[music builds slowly]

Wait!

Do you want to just go see some non-tourist sites?

Now?

Yeah.

Sure?

Yeah, let's go.

Oh, my god. Okay, so this spot right here...

Uh, you know, I, I, I think I'm good, honestly.

No!

No, no, no, no, no.

I just wanted to show you where I used to hang out.

This whole area, like over there,

some spots right over down that way, like...

Yeah, I bet it was such a blast.

- Oh, yeah.

Wait, what about you?

I think I'm, starting to realize

that my memories make for shitty stories.

[laughs] That's funny.

But, they were fun in the moment, you know?

I do... I do. But, here, let's keep going.

Let's go this way. - Okay.

[talking inaudibly over cheerful music]

Oh, look, we can sit over here.

Yeah.

[music quiets down]

You know, after long nights,

we used to stay here until sunrise.

- Damn. - Yeah.

So, Harper and Sophia have seen this yet?

No, not yet.

[lively city noise]

If I wasn't here, would you be doing all this?

Don't flatter yourself.

You know I don't like you, right?

Whoa. That's not insulting at all.

Okay, Miss Don't-Flatter-Yourself.

Oh, my bad. Did I just, did I just hurt your ego?

No, no, you didn't, but... okay, good.

So, we don't like each other.

- Perfect. - Good.

[flute music]

So, what are we doing here?

I hate how everything has to have an objective.

Things can just be.

I know they can.

Oh, really? Are you sure?

So, maybe you should tell your face that

because your entire demeanor screams tense.

I see we've reached the blunt part

of our friendship now.

Look, I just was hoping that you could...

I don't know, pass along some
of the life lessons you learned

while you were down here.

Oh, a lot...

...about life, about myself.

Sophia says I became self-aware,

which apparently is different
than being self-conscious.

So...

Sophia gives you a lot more advice

than Harper, huh? - Oh, yeah.

You know, she tends to put things into words, but

I tend to experience them.

"El gusto de la vida."

- "El gusto de la vida." - Yeah.

- It means... - That's okay.

- I know what it means. - Oh.

- I've heard it before. - Oh, okay. My bad.

[music ends] [city noise]

You know, I was telling Harper that here,

people can be both loyal and spontaneous.

It's not a juxtaposition.

[music from the park plays]

And, whatever that is,

I miss it.

So, you came back to find it.

More like showing her that it's doable.

But...

everything has to come to an end, right?

You know, when I was...

younger, it felt like everything lasted forever.

You don't think about it until it's gone.

Now, I feel like all I do is... think about it.

Well...

It doesn't mean tonight has to end.

So, should we keep going?

[park music continues]

Well, I mean, Sophia's not one for marriage, so...

Yeah, you know, I think that's really more

because it would take someone really special

to tie her down.

Well, you clearly stand no chance.

Oh, god, no,

I never thought that I would. [laughs]

I would do ayahuasca with her though.

- It's a little random - No, I mean,

we've talked about it tonight, right?

Wait, so you'd be into that?

I'm in the medical field.

I've done my research.

You said you skimmed the book.

I lied.

I, I don't know why.

The fear of being judged.

I get it.

Yeah, yeah, probably. I mean...

still seems promising though
enough to give it a shot.

So, is that the magic bullet?

I mean, come on. I could tell that you're out here

looking for something.

So, is ayahuasca the thing that'll fix your life?

Not fix, but...

I just wish I knew where my life was headed

before I turned 35. - Wouldn't we all?

Oh, my god! - So, so what is this?

I don't know, but it's a cool backdrop, right?

Here, stand in front.

Come on, go! I wanna take a picture.

Maybe over here by the...

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Kind of like in the middle.

Yeah.

Seriously, that's your pose?

Okay, maybe if I play your favorite song,

it'll help you loosen up a little bit.

Hear the beat and just dance to it.

[Systema Solar song plays from phone]

Okay. I feel like you got enough.

Be patient! Come on.

[Systema Solar plays louder]

Okay, there you go. You're starting to get it.

So, you're really like a photographer, huh?

No, one of Lucia's kids taught me

while I was out here. So, it's just a hobby.

Lucia?

Like from your host family, right?

That's cool.

[music continues]

Be active!

Come on.

Feel the music.

Yes.

There we go. Yes.

Woo, woo.

Woo, woo.

[bouncy music]

Oh, these are going to be so awesome!

Hell, yeah. These are so good.

[laughing]

- Oh, my god, it's so good. - Wow.

Are you getting me prepped for ayahuasca?

I doubt that's how it's experienced, but...

I guess you'll never know.

Do it! Be bold.

Being bold hasn't ever worked out for me.

Maybe you're just not actually being you.

This is you.

[music continues to play from phone]

Yeah, it's too bad moments don't last forever.

[music plays louder and then stops]

VIOLET: I'll just tell her,

I've been thinking about it all night and...

I just want to make amends.

[door clicks open]

[footsteps]

- Hey. - Hey?

Look...

I feel like, we just keep fighting

and I'm sorry about that.

I am.

But I don't know what you want from me.

Like, I already told you Memphis wasn't my choice.

So, please don't hold it against me.

- You seriously don't get it? - Get what?

What am I missing?

I mean, we've been friends since we're kids.

I think you should know.

- Harper, I'm not a mind reader. - Well, ask then.

Well, I guess that's what I'm doing now.

I wanted to spend time with you,

make things memorable

so that when you move, we could have this time.

Yeah, uh, isn't that what we're doing?

And, I'm sorry, but how can we make it memorable

if you keep trying to, like, baby me and

try to make me like, feel careful?

Like I can take care of myself. - Like in high school?

I mean, I can't even count the times that

I had to pick you up because you were drunk.

- This isn't high school. - Last year, Lindsay's wedding.

Even now we've managed
to circumvent the entire issue.

Okay, what is the issue?

Neel?

You invited them! - Yeah, to appease you.

Yeah, it's my bachelorette party.

SOPHIA: - What is going on?

[sigh]

Something that should have happened

a long time ago.

This time I leave you.

- Harper, Harper. - Harper.

VIOLET: Come here.

What happened?

Wait. What's wrong?

Are you okay? - I don't feel good.

Mm, thank you.

- Food poisoning sucks. - Yeah.

I'll take care of you.

Yeah, I know,

but you got to go see Lucia.

I'll be fine, promise.

And then, when I see Harper,

I'll just tell her to meet you at the station, okay?

Yeah, I don't know if she'll be up for that.

Or, if I even want her to.

You know, friendship's a choice.

You either choose it or you don't.

It's not that simple.

[soft, gentle music is playing]

Maybe it's not, and you want it to be.

Maybe... you're the toad and the deer.

[Sophia chuckles]

See?

Life isn't so binary.

You know, we do try to just do the best that we can.

I don't think I've been doing that well lately.

You're talking about here?

Or back home with Jude?

- What do you mean? - I mean, Neel is a distraction

from the life you're about to commit to, and

by making everything around you implode...

everyone will be equally pissed off at you

and not just Harper.

- Invite Neel. - What?

As a backup just in case Harper doesn't show.

I feel like that's the last thing I should be doing.

Well, you need answers, right?

So, go ahead and take a leap and see where you land.

[lively music builds]

- Hey, hey. - Oh, hey! Uh, no Curt?

No, he didn't want to sit on a bus all day.

Oh, yeah.

But, if you want to go solo, I can totally...

No, no, no, no. It's totally fine.

Plus, it'll be fun to torture you with the

Spanish speakers all day. - Okay, alright.

Sorry, Harper and Sophia got food poisoning.

Yeah, me too.

Um, here, let's go this way.

- I think we gotta... - Okay.

Sure, yeah, you lead the way.

[cheerful piano music]

HARPER: Exploring?

Oh, uh, something like that.

Yeah, you? - Uh, being a cliché.

Reading this, here.

He's a Colombian author. Park's named after him.

Oh, okay.

That makes a lot more sense now. All right.

I was looking for the gold museum actually.

Ah, planning a heist?

[chuckle] - Uh, no, I just

like to look at a bunch of wealth I'll never have.

- Sounds fun. - Yeah, yeah.

Uh, you're welcome to join me if you want.

Yeah?

- Yeah. - Yeah, sure.

[tender background music]

[inaudible]

[inaudible]

HARPER: - Mm, El Dorado, huh? - Yeah.

I feel akin to it.

Mm, because everyone wants something and

sacrifices are made in order to get it.

Hmm. That's deep. I find it more literal like,

I'm always hustling to pay bills
but, same difference, I guess.

[music continues]

Well, thanks for, uh, joining me.

No, that was fun. I mean, you could do something more fun.

What was wrong with that?

I mean something spontaneous.

Are you up for it?

Lead the way.

[relaxed, joyful music]

[indiscernible conversation]

[Knocking]

- Hola! - Violeta?

- Mamacita! [laughter]

[indiscernible]

Hi! Uh... Hola!

Buenas, buenas, buenas.

[in Spanish] Oh my God! So good to see you!

[music ends]

But really, this is plenty...

Especially if it's just us.

This one is so rude.

Refusing my kindness.

- But you, won't reject me. - Okay, okay.

But he doesn't speak Spanish.

Well, teach him quick!

She said I have to teach you Spanish.

[laughing] - I'll pay.

Aw, these are her kids.

So, some of them moved out to the coast,

some of them live in Medellín.

Yeah, you must be bummed not to see them.

Yeah, but it's nice to just see her.

Well, it's great seeing you so happy.

[chuckle]

Oh, she's getting more. [Violet chuckling]

NEEL: Ah, no, no. I mean,

this is how I become a fat American.

[in Spanish] You are making him fat!

No, no, no, no. Très bien.

That's French. Shit.

Uh...[muttering] Muy bueno.

Yes, yes...

[playful Colombian music] LUCIA: Very good.

[Violet in Spanish] Yes, only a few days left.

Then we fly back for the wedding.

[Lucia in Spanish] It's about time.

[Lucia in Spanish] He is good for you.

[door slams loudly] Wait, wait!

[exited chat and laughter]

LUCIA: - What a surprise! VIOLET: - Hola!

Hola! Hi!

[Violet in Spanish] Hey! How are you?

- Hey! - It's been a long time!

[Lucia in Spanish] Can you believe it?

Violet is getting married!

[Paco in Spanish] Ah! Congratulations!

He doesn't speak Spanish.

No problem, I speak English.

You're very lucky, amigo.

Oh, wait, no.

So... - Oh, oh, no, no, no...

He's just a friend. He is just a fr...

[Lucia in Spanish] Enough. Enough. Sit down.

VIOLET: I'll show you, I'll show you.

Let's see.

You practiced what I taught you.

- Oh, my god, of course, look. - Wow.

- He taught me all the photography stuff, so.

[Lucia in Spanish] Oh, you keep me waiting!

[laughter]

How long have you known Violet?

Uh, not long, you know, like about a week.

[music fades away]

So...

have you guys hooked up or anything?

No, no, no, no. We're, uh...

uh, no. We're just, uh... - Okay, okay.

- friends. - I'm sorry.

It's just... you do look like a match.

Uh...

yeah, you know, maybe if, um,

if the circumstances were different,

but, they're not.

- Uh, did you and Violet ever... - It was fun, but...

not meant to be.

I think she likes my photos more than me. [chuckles]

Uh, so photography is like something that you do, uh,

on the side?

[chuckles] - No, I do it for fun, man.

- Okay.

Uh, the photos you see in the living room, huh?

I think they are the good ones.

Oh, man, you captured some really great shots.

When everybody's so happy together,

it's easy.

Yeah, it's funny. You know,

all my friends growing up got married and

now we're getting to that age where

everyone's getting divorced.

- Why is that funny? - No.

Well, you know, not like actually, you know,

ha-ha funny. It's a dumb American expression.

You know what I noticed? Americans refuse fun.

- It's true. [laughing]

- You have to earn it! Just have fun.

[heartfelt music continues]

CURT: So, this is your idea of more fun?

I mean, it was supposed to be fun

if there weren't children skating competition.

Uh-huh. Well, I'm easygoing, so, you know, we can just...

jump right in. - So easygoing?

Yet so specific. - Oh, oh...

- I like what I like and I don't when I don't.

- Oh, that, that's cute. That's really cute.

No, I don't sweat the small stuff.

So, you know, I realize things could always be worse.

Sounds like you don't put expectations on anything

just so you're never disappointed.

Is that a bad thing?

It is if you don't take a risk!

Fair.

But, at least I'm not overly patient.

Oh, okay.

Fair enough. Patient to a fault.

I mean, I should have told
Violet something sooner, but...

Oh, never mind, I said I wouldn't talk about that.

No, no, it's fine. It's fine. It's cool.

I hear Neel out all the time and...

Okay, not all the time. You know what I mean?

Now, you got me doing it. [Curt laughs]

I think we both need another distraction.

I've got an idea of more fun.

- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

[music fades down]

[Lucia in Spanish] I'm trying to convince her to

come here for the honeymoon.

I keep trying to tell her... thank you,

that we're not even having a honeymoon

because, I mean, we just have so much to do,

prepare before going... - No, no, no, no.

[Paco in Spanish] That's no way to start a marriage.

No, no, no, no.

[Lucia in Spanish] I said the same thing.

[in Spanish] I know...

[in Spanish] I'm just joking.

- This is a really great wine. - Colombian wine is better.

[Lucia in Spanish] We learned to respect the land.

And see it as an extension of us.

Our vegetables...

our fruits, like grapes.

And even Yagé.

All are handled with care.

- Didn't she just say yagé? - Yeah, but what's yagé?

- Yagé is a very special plant. - It means ayahuasca.

- Does she know about it?

[Paco in Spanish] Mom, what do you know about Yagé?

[in Spanish] My best friend worked with it for years.

[Lucia in Spanish] But I don't know much.

VIOLET: She's done it for years.

- Are they still friends? Does she still do it?

[Paco in Spanish] Does she still do it?

[Lucia in Spanish] Ah, yes... yes!

[laughing]

VIOLET: Oh, wow.

[Violet in Spanish] Do you still keep in touch?

[Lucia in Spanish] Oh, yes!

[all overlapping in Spanish]
[indiscernible conversation]

Bye! I love you so much! Mwah!

- See you soon! - Goodbye! Gracias.

Gracias.

[Lucia in Spanish] Ahh, you're a sweet boy.

- You remember, huh, just have fun.

- Thank you. Thank you so much.

- VIOLET: Gracias. - Bye.

[birds chirping]

NEEL: It's too bad Sophia and Harper had to miss this.

Lucia is a hoot. I mean... [hopeful piano music]

- You okay? - Yeah, I mean...

It's just..

Kind of sad knowing I'll probably never see her again.

No, you can visit, like she said,

for the honeymoon or I don't know, after?

[introspective music continues]

Hey, what time is the, uh, the bus?

Oh, crap! Is this the time?

Oh, my god, I think we like, totally missed it.

- Let's do something bold. - Is that...

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we cannot.

No. We can't just show up and
ask for an ayahuasca ceremony.

Why not?

I mean, we missed the bus and it's super close to here.

Come on! Let's take a leap.

- Uh... - Come on!

- Ugh... [music grows bolder, happier]

[bus engine roaring]

[birds chirping] [music swells]

[Knocking]

[door opens]

ISABELLA: - Buenas. - Hola. Buenas.

[Violet in Spanish] We are friends of Lucia.

She said you're an Ayahuasca healer?

[in Spanish] - Yes, yes. (Violet in Spanish] - Yes? Yes?

VIOLET: - She says she is. - Come in, come in.

Do you want to make sure we're
not interrupting or something?

- Oh, you speak English. VIOLET:- Oh!

- Oh, me too. Come in, come in. - Perfecto. Gracias.

Good to see you.

- This is my daughter, Marianna. - Oh.

- She assists me.

- Hi, how are you? Welcome. - Thank you.

So, you know about yagé?

Uh, I read about it a little bit.

Do you think it's possible to do a ceremony tonight?

Tonight? The ceremony needs preparation.

Um...

the thing is that we're flying back to the States soon.

So... [spiritual music]

No, the minimum healing is four days.

- Wow, um... - And, sometimes, uh,

the whole month. - Is there...

Is there even any benefit to just one session?

- Mama, we do have available slots tonight.

[Isabella in Spanish] I'm sorry, I won't compromise

the healing process...

with shortcuts.

Just because he has the desire... no.

No!

- I can always come back. - But, you won't, you won't.

Okay, please.

[in Spanish] Can you help with this?

Can you please help us with that?

[Isabella in Spanish] Sorry,
we can’t rush this process.

It would be irresponsible to do a yagé ceremony

without preparation.

[Isabella in Spanish] You just
have to stop thinking that this

is the solution for everything.

[Isabella in Spanish] We just don't do it.

[spiritual music continues with harmonizing]

HARPER: So, I was thinking how...

you said you listened to Neel a lot.

CURT: Uh, I try to, not so much as of late

because I've been busy, work and stuff.

You're still friends.

It's mainly because of him, honestly.

He's always checking in and all that.

I almost kind of feel like I owe him.

Oh, obligation.

Not a good basis for a friendship.

Trust me.

I would not call it an obligation.

I just, you know, check on him, make sure he is okay.

He's always putting so much pressure on himself.

He would be mad if I told you this, but, uh,

he lied to you guys about his job.

Why would he lie about that?

He thought being a neurosurgeon
sounded more impressive.

I mean, if you're going to lie about your job,

might as well make... - Exactly.

- ...fun. - Exactly.

You know,

he reminds me of the characters
in that book I'm reading.

Okay.

So, it's about people who are dead

and they're observing the living,

and then the living...

are like struggling to go through life

without their lost ones. You know?

So... is the point to like...

forget things and move on?

I think the point is like...

finding that profound connection,

like something that matters,

like... something to fight for.

Or else, we're all just kind of stuck.

VIOLET: Well, sorry for getting your hopes up.

NEEL: Uh, it's alright.

MARIANNA: Hey.

If you want to do yagé tonight, I can do it for you.

- What do you mean? - Mama will be leaving soon,

so I can stay here and lead you
through an individual ceremony.

And, you've led one of these before?

Never alone, but I'll give you a lower dose, just in case.

Yeah, no. This seems like a super sketch.

And you think she's trying to shake us down?

Stop making excuses. Come on.

Yeah, that'd be great.

[intense, spiritual music]

MARIANNA: There's no right way to experience this.

[tea pours]

If you go into it tense, It'll be tense.

You feel like crying, cry.

If you want to scream, do it.

Pound the ground if you must.

Be as animalistic as you need.

[music drones on]

Let go of judgment.

Not from others, from yourself.

[intense music drones on]

[ethereal female voices]

Are you sure you want this?

Because what you seek, may not come?

Accept that.

No regrets. [cups clink]

MARIANNA: Indigenous people use psychedelics

to cure physical illnesses.

What they can't understand is that is our illness,

the lack of connection with anything other than

ourselves and the physical.

Focus on what that means for you.

[rousing music with more vocalizing]

[woman's voice sings in Spanish]

STRANGE VOICE: Neel. Here I am ahead of you.

[music playing more intensely]

Neel.

Neel.

Neel.

[crash]

[whooshing down]

[less noise, music quiets down]

[percussive, spiritual music]

MARIANNA: Our beliefs are fables that we see as real,

but they are no more truthful

than what we think we know about anyone else.

VIOLET: - I'm already crying.

MARIANNA: - Try not to override it.

VIOLET: I used to feel like this as a kid,

watching the clouds go by.

MARIANNA: Explore that feeling.

The memories are trying to tell you something.

Trying to recreate the joy you were born with.

[Neel groans from pain]

MARIANNA: Just keep breathing, in and out.

NEEL: I don't want to keep falling.

I don't want to keep falling.

MARIANNA: In and out.

In and out.

That's it.

MARIANNA: As you experience this,

don't look for something.

Seek perspective and find ways

to relate to the phenomenon happening.

Look for the patterns that created your story.

What is preventing you from true joy?

[whooshing]

[uplifting music with vocalizing]

[ethereal voices lift]

[swooshing]

[noises quiet down]

[Neel waking up] [voices fade out]

Ugh. [Neel groans]

How are you feeling?

I shouldn't have pushed you into it.

No, no.

I'm glad that you did.

What makes people cheat?

No, no, I don't, I don't mean us.

- Then who? - A few years back,

[gentle music]

Harper's boyfriend cheated on her.

And...

I guess I never really realized
how much it affected her.

Until now.

You know, I...

guess I was just, caught up in my own life...

and stuff with Jude.

[somber music continues]

You know, you don't get many moments like these,

you know to... just be.

You know, it's nice because...

you have time to...

see all the toads... and the deer out there.

Yes, all the toads and the deer.

You know, Harper and I used to...

just be like this before.

You're going to miss her, huh?

Yeah.

[melancholy music with a sense of longing]

NEEL: When we were in the salt mines,

the guide told me the story about... a man that...

all he needed to do to cure himself was

learn how to dream.

I can't imagine the dream beyond this place.

Maybe I just need to be more like the deer,

seeing whatever I think I'm supposed to.

[gentle, emotional music continues]

You know what?

Fuck that. [chuckle]

[music grows triumphant]

I need to take the first step.

Not be... pushed into it.

And that...

that will make whatever's next...

Okay.

[rousing, triumphant music]

[music fades away]

HARPER: - Mm, you look better. SOPHIA: - Mm, I feel better.

[chuckles]

If I had known you were sick, I would not

have spent all-day out and about.

Yeah, no, I mean, honestly, you deserve to have some fun.

Seriously, you are always worried about us

and never about yourself.

It's true.

I know we don't always show it, but we do appreciate you.

Sadly, despite how I act,

I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Yeah. God...

- It sucks her moving to Memphis.

- Yeah. - And like

Jude forcing it on her like that

and not even discussing it, you know.

What do you mean?

She didn't tell me that.

[street sounds] [soft, heartfelt music]

I think this is me down here.

[inaudible]

[melancholy music continues]

[melancholy music]

[music fades out]

[door shuts]

- Yo. - Yo.

[snaps]

- You pissed?

- Oh, no. We are good. - Good.

Hell, yeah.

- What have you been doing? - Uh, yagé.

Ayahuasca - Oh, shit. Alright.

- Yeah. - Cool, man.

Um, so you're out of your funk now?

Uh, no, but... this is a good start.

That's good to hear man.

[chuckle]

You know what I appreciate about you?

You actually give a shit, man. You know...

support my stuff, check in,
unlike some of my other friends.

So, I just really want you to know that.

So, um...

what do you want to do on our final day?

CURT: Yeah, I'm definitely going
to get my Spanish up after this.

[inaudible talking] [Systema Solar song starts]

WOMEN: - Whoo! CURT: - Oh, look who's here.

- You knew... how'd you know? - Well, I got my surprises too.

I don't want to drive them further away...

It's all good. I talked to Harper.

We're good. - You sure?

Yeah, for sure.

Hi!

VIOLET: What's up, guys? How's it going?

Good to see you You look gorgeous.

Come on up here.

Hey.

[talking inaudibly]

- VIOLET: Salute! - CURT: Salute!

[Systema Solar playing]

- So... - So?

About Memphis and what we talked about,

I'm going to tell Jude I don't want to move.

And, if he wants to stay in Boca Raton...

then it's meant to be.

- Just like that. - Yeah.

- Cheers. - Hey...

[Systema Solar ramps up]

You guys need to extend your trip.

I mean, it's two more days.

I was going to extend it anyway.

Oh!

I'm gonna... I'm gonna stay.

I don't know, maybe just...

just "be" for a little while

and see where it takes me.

Nice.

- Right? - Come on.

- Come on. - I could do two more days.

- Yay! - Alright!

- They're going to stay!

- You guys are staying?

Whoa!

[Systema Solar plays]

[Systema Solar continues]
