Hi guys.

Thank you so much for purchasing the movie.

We honestly couldn't keep making movies if you guys didn't keep watching them and

purchasing them, so we're just so grateful and we really hope you enjoy it.

Thank you.

(gentle music)

♪ How did we end up so shy ♪

- Do you mind?

Oh my God, who is that? - I don't know.

- How did they get in? - I don't know.

- Can you guys get out please?

- Guys.

(Reese claps hands)

She said out, let's go.

- Jeez.

(Ella laughs)

- That was so crazy. - Aw, thank you.

- That's okay. - Mm.

So gross.

- I can't believe they were making out on your bed.

- Don't remind me.

I don't wanna think about it.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

Oh God.

Well, this is my room.

- I thought so. - Yeah.

- Who is this?

- Leave Mr. Boggins alone, thank you very much.

- Noted, but there will be questions later,

just so you know. - Mm-hmm.

- Oh my God, is that what I think it is?

- Oh God, don't remind me.

- I love it. - No.

- I still have mine. - What?

- Yeah, it's sitting on my desk at home,

the one that you sold me in year eight.

- Oh my God, I mean, I'm not surprised it's still around.

It's a quality product.

I had a business. - This is true, this is true.

How else would you have been so successful

for a total of, was it a year?

- Yeah, it was a concerningly long

period of time. - Yeah.

- Why are we playing with slime at a house party?

- Why isn't everyone else

playing with slime at a house party?

That's what I wanna know. - Honestly, that's fair.

I think that we should throw it at all those random people

that have come here. - Yes.

I think that when they try to come back into the bedroom,

we just go, wait, hold up a minute.

Slimed, done,

finished. - How good are you

at throwing slime?

- Not good.

- I'll do it for you, it's okay.

You can just watch and cheer me on.

- Okay, I'm okay with that.

(group outside chatters indistinctly)

Really cool room. - Oh, thanks.

Yeah, I wanted to paint it,

but Dad said painting it black was a bit dramatic, so.

- Oh, look what they left.

I don't think I've tried this one.

- Hmm. - Should we?

- Yeah, might as well. - Why not?

- Cheers. - Cheers.

(bottles clink)

Yeah, that's a no from me.

- It's good. - Is it?

- Mm, I like them.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

So you said you wanted to talk?

- Yeah, I was just,

I don't know, are you mad at me?

- Why would I be mad at you? - It just kind of felt

like you were mad at me

because you've like basically been talking to everyone else

but me. - No.

- I didn't know if I did something wrong.

- You didn't do something.

I was just focusing on, like,

not letting the house burn down.

No, seriously, seriously.

There was this guy, don't know how he figured out

how to get in, but whatever.

And he had like a scotch bottle and paper towel

and he was trying to light it and make a fireball.

- Oh my God. - Like genuinely, genuinely,

I was trying to make sure the house

didn't burn down. - How did I miss that?

- I don't know where you were, to be honest.

So yeah, it's not you.

- Okay. - It wouldn't be you, so.

- That's good.

- I mean, you're kind of the main reason

I even invited people over, so.

- I am having fun.

- Yep? - Yeah.

- That's good.

- Especially now.

- Cool.

(muffled, indistinct rock music)

This part in the bassline is so cool.

- Yeah. - And the way

it goes into the chorus. - Yeah.

- (indistinct) is so good at that.

I can't believe you listen to them too.

- I know, I actually like really like them.

(Ella laughs)

- Oh, they're so good.

- How come you know so much about music?

- Well, I play a lot of music.

- What music do you play?

- Well, I play piano

and guitar.

- No, you don't.

- And sax. - No you don't.

No you don't. - I do.

You are not allowed to tell anyone about the saxophone part

'cause that'll ruin my reputation.

- Okay.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

How long have you played them for?

- Hmm.

I mean, different amounts of time,

but like, if you add them all up

like

seven

or eight years.

- And no one knows about this?

- I didn't say no one knows about this.

- Okay, no one knows about the sax?

- No.

(Ella laughs)

That one was because my mum made me do it.

But nah, I,

yeah, I don't know.

I just don't really talk about it.

- Okay, it's mysterious. - Yeah.

It's very mysterious for me, isn't it?

- Yeah, I definitely wouldn't have guessed that.

- Really? - I wouldn't have guessed

saxophone for sure.

- Well, what would you have guessed?

- Not saxophone.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

I feel like that's really crazy.

- Really? - Yeah.

- Interesting. - I don't know.

Like, don't you think that you can tell

a lot about someone, like what sort of music they listen to

or they're involved with by the way that they look?

Don't you think? - Well, maybe.

Yeah, why, what would you assume?

- Like, well, I don't know.

Like sometimes you see someone walking down the street

and you're like, pop rock.

That's all they listen to, undoubtedly.

- What is what I listen to, do you think?

- Screamo. - Wow,

okay.

Way to judge a book by its cover.

I have range, I played the saxophone.

- I know this now.

I know this now, okay?

- I actually listen to a lot of jazz.

- Really? - I know,

but. - That's kind of cool.

- But what else do you think you can tell about me?

- That you

are

obsessed with cats.

- Where did that come from?

(Ella laughs)

- I don't know, just like your necklace.

It kind of looks like a cat bell, I don't know.

- Hey, this is not a bell. - I don't know.

It's cute, it's cute. - Oh wow.

- It just kind of looks, I don't know,

it just popped into my head, I'm really sorry.

- I don't make a jingle when I walk, do I?

- No.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

- Wow, just wow. - Sorry.

- Anything else?

- No, no. - No?

- It's stupid. - What?

- Nothing. - No, I wanna know.

- I can't tell you 'cause it's weird now.

- Why, why, tell me, tell me. - It's weird, no stop.

- What do you mean it's weird?

- No. - Please.

(muffled rock music)

What? - I don't know what to do

when you look at me like that.

- What do, look at you like what?

- Like that. - Like what?

What?

(muffled rock music continues)

- I am so sorry, I don't, I don't,

I literally don't even know why I did that.

I think I had a bit too much to drink before.

I'm so sorry.

- You had like two sips of beer.

- I don't know, I'm panicking.

- Stop panicking. - I'm sorry.

- It's fine.

It's more than fine.

- It's just a thing that people do at parties, right?

- Yeah, yeah. - Like just like

kiss and then. - Mm, and that's it, yeah.

- Yeah.

- It's fine. - Okay.

- Don't worry about it. - I'm sorry.

Like it won't. - Stop apologizing.

- Happen again.

- It's fine. - Okay.

(upbeat music)

You all right? - Yeah, yeah, okay.

- What's going on? - Nothing.

- Okay, do you want to come back to my place?

- Hmm, didn't you say you had all that like maths homework?

- Yeah, but I can do that tomorrow.

It's no big deal.

- I thought you wanted to study.

- I've got scones though.

And they're way better than last time.

Come on. - I'm just not really

in a scone mood.

- Well, what are you in the mood for?

- Fast food or something. - Okay.

What about

nachos?

You love nachos, let's go get nachos.

- Okay, let's get nachos, let's do that.

- Okay. - Okay.

(gentle music)

I am so excited for a good feed.

- I hope they put the guacamole on it this time.

I feel like they forgot. - I know,

they keep forgetting.

- I swear it was in like a separate little thing last time.

- Yeah maybe I forgot to mention it.

- How could you forget the guacamole?

That's like the main part of a nacho.

- I know, I feel like it's extra though.

Yeah, no, well that's what Jesse was telling me

that she heard them talking about them

and he was in trouble for it.

Do you know what I mean?

- So if he was in trouble for it, why is he still there?

- I don't know.

I don't know.

But did you know that Jesse broke up with Blake?

Yeah. - When?

- Like two days ago.

- Huge. - Yeah.

Which like,

I just don't think that, you know,

they should have been together in the first place,

to be honest. - Hmm.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

- What's going on? - Nothing.

Just enjoying my nachos.

- You sure? - Mm-hmm.

- [Reese] What are you thinking about?

- Many things.

What? - Like what?

- I don't know, everything.

I do a lot of thinking.

- Do you wanna do your thinking with me?

- Well,

Sarah overheard something

about

you. - Yeah?

- Maybe moving away to Brisbane for uni.

- Yeah, but I haven't decided anything yet.

- So it's true.

- I only just got my grades back today.

I didn't even think that I was gonna be good enough

to get in.

Okay.

It's actually a really good course.

And like, as far as veterinary science go,

like the placements are excellent

and you get to get placed rurally

and help farmers

and like really get in there and make a difference.

And it's really exciting.

I think it'd be silly to not apply for it.

- I just thought that like, you'd tell me.

I didn't have to hear it from.

- But I didn't know, Ella. - Someone else.

- I don't even know if I'm going yet, okay?

Ella. - I'm fine.

I just wasn't sure if it was like a rumor.

- Yeah. - But I guess it's not.

It's just unfair, like you didn't bring up Queensland

until today and now it's like

all that you can talk about. - Can you just slow down?

- And you're like not looking at any other options anymore.

Like, at all. - Can you just calm down

for two seconds so I can tell you?

- Queensland this, Queensland that

and that's like all your. - Just stop, stop. Ella, stop.

I just, can you just let me talk to you, okay?

- What are you gonna say that you haven't already?

- I'm gonna say that I didn't tell you

because I didn't know that there was anything to tell yet,

okay? - You just didn't want

me to know. - I didn't get my grades

until today.

I didn't know.

I wanna share everything with you.

I wanted to tell you, but I didn't wanna stress you out,

okay, Ella, please don't look at me like that.

- Like what?

- Like your world's ending

because it's not, okay?

Because,

because

I love you and.

(soft music)

- You love me?

- Yes,

of course I do.

How can I not love you?

- And I

think that we can do it

and I

think that I'm always gonna love you

and

it doesn't matter where we go

and

it doesn't matter where we end up.

I'm gonna love you.

Okay?

- I love you too.

We'll figure it out.

- Yeah, we will. - Yep, yep.

We got this.

(Ella laughs)

We'll be okay.

(Ella laughs)

You love me. - Yes.

(soft music continues)

(birds chirp)

(soft music continues)

- Hey. - Hi.

How are you? - I'm good, how are you?

- I'm good.

- I got you a flat white. - Thank you, thank you.

- That was your favorite. - Yeah.

Hi.

Oh my God, it's so good to see you.

- Yeah, it's really good to see you.

You look amazing. - Oh, thanks.

- Different but amazing. - Oh, thank you.

Yeah, it's a bit different than what I used to,

but. - Very.

- Europe will do that. - But I like it.

- Thank you. - I like it.

- I'm still not used to Melbourne coffee.

- What do you mean?

- Oh, it's just, it's not as smooth as it was overseas,

but it's fine.

I'm getting used to it again.

It's only been two weeks, so.

- Two weeks? - Yeah, it was so cold.

I'm like still adjusting to the heat.

It's weird being back. - Yeah, I bet.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, I saw you post that photo

and I just thought that I should, I don't know.

I just thought we should catch up 'cause I thought.

- Yeah, no, I'm glad you texted.

Yeah. - Glad you replied.

(Ella laughs)

- Yeah.

- Yeah, I like the blue.

I think it suits you. - I miss the blue.

- I don't know that I can go back to the blue.

I don't think it's like. - Why?

- I just don't think it's like professional or whatever.

I don't know. - When did you ever care?

That's what my mum said.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

- So I just went blonde.

- Yeah, well it still looks good.

- Thanks.

- Yeah.

- So

how have you, like, aside from your Europe,

how have you been? - Oh, I mean,

it's kind of all that's been happening, to be honest.

- Yeah. - Like, I just got home.

I still haven't unpacked my suitcase.

- Two weeks. - I know, I know.

- But that's so you. - Yeah, yeah.

I don't know how long I'm planning

on staying around anyway, so.

- Oh? - Why bother?

- Right. - Yeah.

- What does that mean?

- I've got the travel bug.

- Okay, yeah.

- I dunno where I wanna go next, but somewhere.

Somewhere, yeah, so.

- Maybe Asia? - Maybe, yeah,

- That will be warm. - Yeah.

- Not cold. - Yeah, that'd be good.

So, yeah, yeah, but you've, you're good?

- I'm. - Everything's good?

Yeah.

Sorry, I don't know. - No, no.

- I feel like it's been a while since we talked

and I feel like. - I know.

- I always forgot how to talk to you.

- No, that's fine same.

We just get back into it, it's fine.

- I think so. - Yep.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

- It's hard being around a pretty girl.

I don't know what to say to you.

I,

don't look at me like that.

I'm stressing me out.

- You just called me a pretty girl.

What do you expect me to do?

- I don't know, I panicked, I'm just panicking.

It's just a lot of panic, okay.

- It's fine. - But I am really glad

to be here, honestly. - Me too, yeah.

- Yep? - Yep, yep.

(speaks foreign language)

- Yes.

(Ella laughs)

Si?

Bon giorno.

- Wow, that was amazing. - Yeah.

- I loved your accent.

- And I haven't even been. - Do it again for me.

- Bon giorno.

Did I get it?

- Bon giorno, can you roll your Rs?

- Bon giorno, did I get it?

- We can say you did. - Okay.

No, I'm happy with that.

- But then like, okay, okay.

So that was.

- How are you? - Okay.

- Bon giorno is good morning. - Yes.

- No, I, yeah, yes is si.

- I don't know what I thought it was.

Si. - Mm-hmm.

- Si.

How about

like, how would you describe me in Italian?

- Bellissima.

- Which means? - Ugly as hell.

- Right, that's so fair.

(Ella laughs)

That's so fair.

It's the hair isn't it?

I should go back to blue. - I mean, I miss the blue.

- I kind of do a little bit.

Okay, so wait, what is it?

- Bellissima. - Bellissima.

- There you go, getting the accent.

You'll be in Europe next. - Yeah, it would be nice.

- Yeah. - I could see

myself there I guess.

But like where should I go?

So you've been now, so you.

- Okay, well do you wanna do the touristy stuff

or the non-touristy stuff?

- I wanna do the you stuff, like what did you do?

- Okay, well I had to do some of the touristy stuff.

- Yeah. - So I did like

all the main things and then like a few

little places as well.

But, like Rome. - Yep.

- Really touristy, like you got the Colosseum

and you got like the Trevi fountain.

- Yep. - The big fountain

where you throw a coin.

- Yes, yeah, I've seen that in movies.

- Yeah, and it's so busy that you have to go

at like 6:00 AM and there's still gonna be people there.

- Wow. - I know.

- That's commitment. - Yeah.

And then, yeah, Colosseum is massive.

- Yeah? - They actually have

sparkling water on tap

outside the, it's like. - That's so cool.

- On their public drinking fountain is

a sparkling option and a natural option.

- And, but like they're like public.

- Yeah. - I think water

should be free.

- I agree with that.

- I feel like it's a thing in Europe.

- No, they charge you like three euros for a thing of water

at a restaurant, it's stupid.

- That's rubbish. - Yeah,

I wasn't impressed by that, but.

- Yeah. - Anyway.

- You were impressed by the coffee, apparently.

- I was impressed by the coffee.

- Yeah.

(Ella laughs)

- But yeah, so Rome

and then like I went to Pompeii.

I was only there for like two hours though

but that was really interesting.

- Is that like Pompeii like the song or like?

I don't know, I'm not worldly. - Yes.

Yes, like the song, I guess we could say that.

- Yeah? - Yeah, but I just kept

getting lost 'cause everything looked the same.

Like it was just an excavated city, obviously.

But it's all like cobbles,

not cobblestone, but like the stuff,

the lava that solidified, what's it called?

I dunno, anyway, it all looks very similar.

Rock, yeah, let's go with that.

Yeah, so that was interesting.

And then like, I did the Amalfi coast with all the beaches.

- Yeah. - That was cool.

Except like, it was kind of hard

because like there was no one to mind my stuff on the beach.

So then you think you're gonna get pickpocketed.

- So you were by yourself?

- Yeah, yeah, I went solo, yeah.

- Oh, okay.

- I mean, I met people at like the hostels and stuff.

- What sort of people?

- Just like people from everywhere around the world.

Like,

I feel like every hostel had like a different

kind of demographic. - Yeah.

- But

I stayed in a lot of hostels

where like my room was female only

'cause you know, safety.

And then we'd meet people in the common room

and like watch the Euro Cup was on, like the soccer.

- Yeah. - So we'd watch

the games together, go clubbing.

But nah, I did the actual travel part solo.

- Sick. - Because none of them

were Australian, so.

- [Reese] I just like hostel's not my vibe.

- How do you know if it's not your vibe

if you've never been? - [Reese] Because

like the sleeping

and then there's other people that you don't know.

- No way there's other people. - That could like,

okay, Sassy Mcsassypants.

No, that like, what if they steal your stuff?

- [Ella] That's why you have a lock, like on your stuff.

It's safe, like, I mean, it was safe for me.

Depends where you go.

But like, you could really do, like,

you could do a private room if you want to.

- If I do a private room, I'm gonna do like a hotel room.

I'm not gonna do a hostel. - What's your budget?

That's my question,

because like. - I know, look,

I feel like I'm happy to save so that

I do it right.

Do you know what I mean?

- But then like the few times I stayed in a room by myself,

I was like, I kind of miss people.

- No, I get that but I'm not gonna go by myself.

'Cause you just told me you're gonna come with me.

So that's not a problem. - Okay.

So we're gonna share a room as well.

How is that gonna work?

- I didn't say anything.

You said that. - You implied many things.

- I,

you are just saying what you're saying right now.

I have absolutely no control over that.

- Okay, well. - So,

you just called me bellissima,

which I believe is not ugly.

- What do you think it is? - It doesn't sound like

an ugly word.

- Well, you never know.

What do you think it means?

- I think

it means something nice. - Mm-hmm?

- I think

maybe you think I'm pretty,

Maybe. - You wish.

- And

you know what?

I have attitude, okay.

Come back from Europe.

You think you're better than everybody.

- Okay, well

I'm sorry that it changed me.

- Yeah. - For the better, I hope.

- Okay.

- What, do you not like post-Europe me?

- I didn't say anything. - Mm-hmm.

- I didn't, I said that you look amazing.

You always look amazing.

- Maybe I just wanted you to say it again.

- That you look amazing? - Mm.

- Do you want me to say it one more time?

- Maybe. - You look amazing.

- Oh, thank you.

Just to make sure I really got it in my brain.

- One more time? - Yeah.

- You look amazing.

- Oh wow, oh my God, these bugs.

Just.

- Yeah, but yeah. - I, you should,

sorry, you go. - No.

- No, I was. - I had nothing.

I honestly had nothing. - Okay, yeah.

No, I was just gonna say that you should do it.

And I think that you would very much enjoy it

and

you would discover lots of things about yourself

and probably come out the other side

a different person. - Okay.

- In a good way, not in a bad way.

Hopefully.

- [Reese] So, lunch? - [Ella] Mm-hmm.

- I thought

that maybe we could go to that place

that we always used to go to to get nachos again.

- Oh my God. - Be kinda cute.

- I used to get that all the time.

- I know.

- Oh my God.

I feel like I don't eat stuff like that anymore.

Like, there was this dish when I was away, pappardelle.

It's like, it's kind of like fettuccine,

like, it's wide,

like pieces of pasta.

It's from Tuscany, it's really good.

I think you'd really, really like it, but.

- Right. - I don't know

if they have any places here

or if they did, I doubt it would be as good to be honest.

But yeah, I don't know.

But like, we could do nachos if you want.

- Only if you want to.

I mean, you sound like you hate it now.

- No, I don't hate it, it's just been a while, so.

- Okay. - Mm.

- I mean like, there might be an Italian place nearby.

I just, I don't really.

- I probably need to get, stop doing all the Italian stuff,

to be honest but I don't know.

It's hard to let it go, I guess.

(Ella laughs)

It's fine, it's not a big deal.

- Yeah, but I, oh, I'm sorry, I keep talking about myself.

I'm sorry. - No, no, it's a big deal.

- I'll look up a couple lunch places.

- Yeah. - Let me have a look.

Hold on.

But like, nachos is still on the I reckon, okay.

But

how's your course, by the way?

- Ah, yeah, it's good.

- It's good? - Mm.

- Yeah, well, like what do you do?

- What do you mean?

- Like, well, is it in person, is it online, is it?

- Yeah, yeah. - Like a mix?

- I suppose like some of my lectures I can do online

if I need to.

- Yeah, that'd be nice.

- Then I have to do like some practical stuff too.

- Practical stuff? - Yeah.

- How many hours is it?

- I think it's probably like 10,

like contact hours a week.

- Ew. - But that's like

the practical stuff.

And then there's obviously the lectures.

- That's so much work, I could never do that.

- It's fun.

- It's fun? - Yeah, sure.

- What do you mean, yeah, sure?

- I mean like, it's like kind of hard, but it's okay.

- But you like it? - Yes.

- Say that again but actually convince me.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

- Yeah, I like it. - You don't have to like it.

- I do, like

it's interesting, do you know what I mean?

Like, we have to do all these like, fundamental,

like science fundamentals.

So we have to do like a chemistry unit

and like biology unit. - Geez, yeah, okay.

- And the other day I was doing

like a lab practical for bio.

- Mm. - And we had to

dissect rats.

- No, that's disgusting. - Wait, wait.

And I was cutting this rat open

'cause we had to, like, obviously look at the organs and.

- Okay, yeah. - I won't go into

that bit anymore.

But, and

it had like there was, okay,

so I cut it open, my lab partner was there

and we were like, oh, what are these extra bits?

They don't look like they're a part of the diagram

that we're supposed to see.

So we asked the lecturer to come over

and he looks at it for a while and he's like,

"Oh no, not another one."

- What do you mean? - Like, what do mean

another one?

And he goes,

"Yeah, she's pregnant.

Those are her babies."

Yeah.

- You killed a? - I didn't kill it.

It was dead when it came to me, okay, I didn't.

- Mm, that's,

did they have like little baby tails and stuff?

- No, it was like little, like they're not recognizable.

They're just like little sacs.

Like, it looks like. - How many?

- If I had to liken it to something, it looks like grapes.

Do you know what I mean?

- Rat baby grapes.

So that's what your course is.

- Little like grapes just sitting there.

- Stop, that. - And there was

like six of them.

- So it's fun?

- I still see it when I blink.

- No.

Oh my God.

I don't know if I have an appetite now,

but now nachos are coming back to my brain.

(Ella and Reese laugh)

Oh. - See, it's fun.

- I mean, whatever floats your boat, I guess.

- It's funny, like it's, I think it's funny.

I don't know, I feel like if you don't laugh, you cry.

Do you know what I mean?

So I think that. - I think I'd do both,

to be honest.

- I don't even know what I did in the moment.

I think I was just horrified a little bit.

- Oh.

Oh,

that. - But no more rats now.

I think that's probably it.

- Okay, that's good, that's good.

Just like more fun stuff.

- I think we have to do a cockroach next week.

- No, don't tell me that, don't tell me that.

That's just no, there's a line.

There's a line,

that crosses the line.

- I have a real aversion to bugs.

Like, touching bugs. - Same, yeah.

They're creepy. - I think it's gonna feel

like it's just gonna jump off the tray.

I have to do it though. - Okay.

But do you have to?

- Like, it's a part of my course, I have to do it.

- Are you in the right course?

(Ella and Reese laugh)

- Aren't you supposed to support me?

- I'm supportive, I'm just not supportive of pregnant rats

and cockroaches.

That's so scary. - It's fine.

All in the name of science.

- Science, yeah. - And

helping

animals.

But that's it, that's how my course is going.

- [Ella] Great. - Yeah.

- Love that for you.

Oh, I could never do that, but I mean, good for you.

- Thank you, yeah, thanks for your support.

- Still not convinced that you actually enjoy that, but.

But anyway. - Told you, it's fine.

- Mm-hmm.

But I have been looking. - Mm-hmm?

- It doesn't seem to be much around here

that sounds more appetizing than nachos, to be honest.

So I reckon we go back to our old.

- Look who's coming back to the dark side.

- Okay, it's

nostalgic. - Yeah, yeah.

- So I reckon we do that. - Okay.

Okay, nachos? - Yeah Let's do it.

- I think like sharing, separate?

- How big are they?

I've forgotten.

Okay, I'm so excited. - Here we go.

- Why are they so small?

- What do you mean?

- They're literally miniature.

They're like half the size.

- They look the same.

- That is not, they, seriously?

They're like tiny, how do you not even notice?

- I don't know, how do you notice?

- Well, I guess when you're away and things change

when you're away, you get back and it's more obvious.

- Right.

- Still good, though, yeah, just small.

But I think they're still.

- It's like the taste of high school.

- Right? - Do you know what I mean?

- I don't like to think about it though.

- What do you mean?

- High school

just wasn't my favorite time.

- Like, how?

- Well, like you have to be there five days a week.

Do a bunch of classes that you don't care about

with a bunch of teachers telling you what to do.

And a bunch of people who are only friends with you

out of convenience because they have to be there too.

- But I wasn't friends with you outta convenience.

- Okay, well I didn't say it was you.

- I was more than friends with you.

- Well, you're not in the majority, so.

- That's good to know.

- But I mean,

everything changes after high school anyway, so it's okay.

- What do you mean? - Nothing,

just things are different.

Like,

I liked being like around people out of convenience,

like to an extent 'cause then like after high school,

you never really see anyone as much

or like talk as much as you used to.

- [Reese] Well, we talked.

- Yeah.

I mean, not as much as I wish we would've.

Not that it's like anyone's fault,

but like, I don't know.

I just miss talking to you more often.

So.

- Well, I wasn't the one who just ran away to Europe, so.

- [Ella] Wow, okay.

- Look, you know what I mean.

- [Ella] Uh-huh.

I mean, I didn't like run away.

I went there for a reason, but like whatever.

- I felt like you ran away from me.

- [Ella] I mean, you're the one who threw themselves

into their study, so.

- Yeah, and what else was I meant to do?

- [Ella] Well, I didn't say

you were meant to do anything in particular.

We just both had different paths, I guess.

- Yeah.

(pensive music)

Are you gonna finish it, or?

- [Ella] I'm good now.

(pensive music continues)

- Hi. - [Reese] Hi.

Hi yourself,

what are you doing on the floor, babe?

- The bag broke. - Yes, I see that.

- I was trying to juggle too many things at once.

- Probably shouldn't juggle your groceries.

- Really? - Yes.

- Are you sure about that? - Mm-hmm.

- 'Cause I thought juggling groceries is

the best thing to do.

- Sorry, where, when did you learn how to juggle?

- Like in high school, the circus day.

You don't remember that? - No.

- Are you serious? - Yeah.

- I did like the juggling thing, you did the tumbling thing.

No? - I mean like vaguely.

Vaguely. - Yeah.

- You asked me to tumble right now, like nothing.

- I mean, I wanna see it. - Absolutely, okay.

That's how fast it was, you missed it.

- Wow, that was amazing, I'm so proud.

But how have you been?

- I am good, how have you been?

- I am good, yeah, I'm cooking tonight.

- Yeah.

- I'm scared.

I was meant to bring the dessert

and I was too scared to cook it

but then this happens

so now I think I have to make a dessert

and I don't know how to do that.

- I almost think this would be better

than you making dessert. - Wow.

Wow, you know what?

We'll put it to the test.

Do you want one?

We'll do a taste test.

- Thanks, you're so generous.

- I am, you're so welcome.

- Were you saving this for somebody, or?

- No, I wasn't.

- You're just like, you're all dressed up like.

- You know, gotta feel good.

- Yeah.

- Come on, let's try one. - Okay.

(indie rock music)

- Oh my God, you know this song.

- Yeah, but.

(radio clicks off)

- What was that?

You used to love this song.

- I just don't like it anymore.

I don't know, indie rock is like not really my thing.

- What do you mean not your thing?

- It's just not my, like I grew out of it.

- And what did you grow into?

- I have no idea,

I don't know, like.

- What do you listen to?

- Random stuff, like just general rock.

- Yep. - And

I don't mind heavy metal.

- Heavy metal? - Which I know is

a bit of a throwback, but yeah.

I don't know, it depends on my mood.

It could be that or it could be acoustic stuff.

It really depends. - Okay.

- Don't gimme that face.

- I am not giving you a face.

I'm just thinking about things.

- Okay, well what do you listen to?

- Like this sort of stuff.

Like, you know?

- That, I'm not judging, I'm not,

like, I still like indie rock.

I didn't say I hated it.

I just said it's like not my thing as much.

- Okay. - It just reminds me.

- Okay.

- But anyway.

Yeah.

So what do you think of these?

- Please don't make me eat anymore.

- Oh, come on.

They're really bad. - They're not that bad.

- They're really bad. - They're really not.

- I would know, I've been baking.

- You've been baking? - Like excessively.

- Wow.

- Like my mum's been teaching me.

- What's she been teaching you?

- Like I just learned how to make custard tarts.

And that is not a tart.

- It tries to be. - It's just like,

it's like underbaked.

- Okay, well how? - Like the shell doesn't have

any crust on it.

You know what I mean?

- Well how would you make a custard tart?

- Like, better.

(Reese laughs)

- Wow, okay. - No, I just.

- I can't even take offense

'cause I didn't bake these.

- I feel like the short crust,

it has to be like little bit darker.

It's got that like, not crispy,

but it like cracks when you break it.

Do you know what I mean?

Like, it's like a crack, crumble sort of situation.

- How long did it take for to learn

all of these little like nuances of tarts?

- Not like that long.

I mean like, I've gotta do something.

Living at home is rough.

- You what?

Wait, you're living at home?

- Yeah, did I not tell you that?

- No. - Yeah.

When did you come back?

- It was like a little while ago now.

- And you didn't call or anything?

- I didn't really know what you were doing,

so I didn't want to

like interrupt you I guess.

- I mean, it would've been nice to not run into you

on the floor of a supermarket car park

for the first time if you'd been here.

But. - Yeah but like you've

got your life and I didn't want to be in the way, so.

- You wouldn't be in the way.

- I've been making cakes too.

And bread.

I'm really into.

- Have you got a sourdough?

- I've got a sourdough starter, Ella.

And it is, it's thriving, so.

Not to brag, I've got a starter that's thriving.

Yeah, I haven't actually made any sourdough with it yet.

But that is for a later date.

- Yep.

So uni's just not

a thing anymore, I guess?

- Pretty much.

Just wasn't really working

the way that I wanted it to, you know?

- Well, how did you want it to go?

- I don't know what I thought it was gonna be,

but it wasn't what I thought it was gonna be.

- Yeah, I feel that.

So are you

just here while you figure things out or?

- Pretty much.

- Cool.

- Don't know how much longer I can

really do that for though.

- Well, I guess I'll see you around more then.

That's nice, that's a good thing.

- Yeah,

what are you doing tonight?

- It told you, I'm cooking.

- Mm-hmm, dressed like that.

You're cooking by yourself.

- It's, no, it's nothing.

- So something. - No, it's like, okay,

a friend set me up and I don't actually care about it

as a date or anything.

I was just like,

they're bringing over the wine.

So I'm gonna say yeah.

To free alcohol.

- That's fair. - Yeah.

Plus, I mean, I have to practice

my cooking on someone else first before I poison you.

- So you're gonna practice your cooking on me?

(Ella laughs)

- Maybe.

- Maybe if I'm lucky,

I could bring over my starter

and we could collectively not make sourdough together.

- Sounds perfect, yeah.

- Glad that I ran into you.

- Me too.

- Well, so. - Yeah, tarts.

- Thank you for trying them.

I'm sorry it was a disappointment.

- Yeah, like I don't,

what is even on the top of that?

- I don't, like. - Doesn't look

very appetizing.

- I have a hunch.

It looks like a walnut or something.

- I feel like you can't go wrong with fresh berries

'cause then it doesn't look like animal droppings.

(Ella laughs)

You know what I mean? - Wow.

I mean, yeah.

- Like, it's giving. - I feel that.

- It's giving goat poop.

(Ella laughs)

- Only you would compare food to goat poop.

- Well I did part of the degree, so I would know.

- I know, I know.

- I feel like my life is such a mess.

- I mean, whose isn't?

- Yours, you've got a car, you've got a life,

you've got a date.

- Having a car does not mean I have my life together.

It's on a loan.

- So?

I don't even have my license yet.

Like,

what am I doing?

- 'Cause you never wanted to practice.

- Oh, it's kind of scary.

- Yeah, but you don't have to figure it out yet.

- Yeah, you're right.

(gentle piano music)

- Hi. - [Reese] Hi.

You okay?

- Yeah, yeah, do you mind if I come in?

- [Reese] Yeah, come in, come in, come in, come in.

- Thanks.

It's fine, really?

- [Reese] Are you sure?

Here you go. - Thanks.

- So what's been going on?

- Sorry for just dropping in.

I mean, you said I could come over anytime.

- Yeah, course you can. - I just thought

it was a good time to come over, so.

It's nothing, really.

- You sure? - Mm-hmm.

- I feel like I don't believe you.

- I just

didn't feel like I could talk to you

about this kind of thing, so.

- Is it a Talia kind of thing?

- Yeah.

- You can talk to me about things.

- I don't know.

- What are friends for if not to vent about things?

- Okay, well

she asked me to move in with her.

- Whoa. - Yeah.

But I don't want to.

- Because of?

- I'm just not ready to move out at all with anyone.

- Yeah.

- But like,

if I don't move out with her,

then she,

because she really wants to move out.

So if I don't move out with her,

she has to move into a share house

with a bunch of people she doesn't know.

And she really doesn't wanna do that.

So I feel like I have to move in with her

because otherwise it's just putting her

in a kind of shitty position

and I just feel

really guilty about that, so. - Yeah.

But she can't make you do something you don't wanna do.

- I dunno.

I just feel bad

and it's really stressful

and I just feel like I'm walking on eggshells.

- Oh,

sorry.

I didn't realize I made that much of a mess.

(Ella laughs)

Because baking. - That was so bad.

- You know, like. - That was.

- It got you laughing, so.

- That was the worst joke I've ever heard.

- Yeah, but why did you laugh then?

(Ella laughs)

You know?

So I feel like it did what it needed to do, you know?

(Ella laughs)

Because you're smiling now.

- Because it was so stupid.

- Yeah, but like, it's still funny even if it's stupid.

- Oh, you're such an idiot.

- Thank you.

- I just feel like we fight all the time

about the dumbest stuff.

Like, she just never sees my point of view.

She's just so stubborn.

It's so annoying.

Like, what am I supposed to do with that?

How are you supposed to argue or debate

with someone who like will not move

from their point of view?

What am I supposed to do with that?

And like,

she doesn't like the same food as me either.

- Like what? - So how like,

you know how love Thai food? - Yeah.

- Well she doesn't,

so if I wanna get Thai food for takeaway,

I have to get some

and then she has to go and get something else

because she won't eat it with me.

- She won't compromise.

- No, she won't compromise.

But then if I wanna get,

if she wants to get dinner

and she chooses a takeaway place that I don't like,

I'll still try it for her.

- Yeah.

- It's really annoying.

Like, I just don't,

I don't get it.

Like,

I don't know.

It's just

there's a lot of things. - Yeah.

- Like there's good stuff too. - Yeah?

- But at the moment it's not,

I don't know.

I just feel like she doesn't get me

like you get me.

- What does that mean?

- Nothing, nothing. - Nothing?

- I don't know.

Kind of always thought that we would be

the ones

still together.

Like, the long distance stuff that we did, like yeah,

it didn't work in the end.

But I could never do that with Talia.

Like, at all.

Like, at all, it would not work.

- Yeah, but I kind of messed us up I guess.

- It's not your fault.

Both of our faults.

- Yeah, but I left.

- Let's not

rehash the past.

Let's not focus. - Okay.

- I just don't really know what I'm doing.

- It's okay.

I don't think I know what I'm doing.

- You always seem to give me good advice,

so that's why I came here.

- Oh, babe.

Come here.

- It's fine. - Come here.

- It's gonna be okay, okay?

Even if it doesn't feel okay right now,

it's gonna be okay. - Hmm.

(emotive music)

- Okay? - Mm-hmm.

Why do you know how to cheer me up?

- I do my best.

(Ella laughs)

You sure you're okay?

- Yeah, I will be.

(emotive music continues)

- I

don't think we should do this right now.

- Are you sure?

- Well, you had a bit to drink and like, you don't.

- I'm not drunk.

The same level as drunk as you.

- Same level as drunk as me? - Mm-hmm.

- Are you sure?

- Okay?

- It's so okay.

(emotive music continues)

(birds chirp)

- So what cafe are you going to?

- It's that new one on the corner of Main Street

near the train station.

- I love their focaccia.

- Oh really? - Yeah, they're so yummy.

- [Ella] I'll have to get one.

I haven't been there before, so.

- [Talia] I haven't had breakfast yet, actually.

- [Ella] Oh, should probably grab something later.

- [Talia] Yeah maybe I should - [Ella] Yeah.

- You wouldn't mind if I grabbed one or?

- At the cafe with me and Reese?

- Yeah.

- I mean, you could if you really wanted to,

but

I don't know.

It's like one-on-one catch ups, it might be a bit awkward.

- Why would it be awkward?

- Well, 'cause she's my ex and.

- [Talia] Yeah, but I know Reese.

- [Ella] Yeah, but I mean,

we don't have to be those couples

that do everything together.

- I'm not saying that, I'm,

I just wanna grab a focaccia, okay?

- Do you not trust me alone with her or something?

- I do. - Really?

- Yes, I do. - Mm-hmm?

- I just thought maybe I could say hi as well.

- Do you want me to stay home or something?

I feel like you don't want me to be alone with her.

Okay, cool.

Yep, okay.

- Ella.

Hey. - [Ella] Hey.

- Maybe we just have a lazy day.

Bake something, or?

- I thought you were starving, though.

- All right.

- [Ella] Are you just not hungry anymore?

- I don't like arguing with you.

I, look, it's just

I see the way she looks at you, okay?

I see the way she looks at you.

- She doesn't look at me in any.

- Yes, she does. - Kind of way.

- She does.

I just, there's just, there's a connection between you two

that I don't,

that I feel

distant from

as like a part of you that I don't know.

- Well, of course there's gonna be a connection.

We were in love. - Yeah, years.

- That doesn't just go away straight away.

Like,

the connection doesn't go away.

- I just, I feel like I'm in competition with her.

- Why?

- Because.

That's what I'm trying to say.

There's like, I feel like there's a connection

between you two.

- She's my best friend.

There's gonna be a connection.

- I know, I know.

But I just, I wanna understand.

- I don't know, we went through

high school together and

so many things together.

Like, you can't really explain it.

Like, people have connections with other people.

It's normal.

We have our own connection.

- I know, I know.

I just, there's,

that doesn't feel like a friend connection sometimes.

- Well,

what can I do to convince you that it is?

- I dunno.

I just. - Well then what am I

supposed to do? - I know.

- Just never see her again?

- No, that's not what I'm saying.

I'm not saying that.

- And what are you saying?

- I'm just trying to understand.

- I don't know what you need to understand.

She's one of my closest friends and that's it.

- But she looks at you like she's in love with you.

- Well, she's not.

- How do you know that?

(emotional music)

- [Ella] Okay, you're so close.

Come on, you have to.

- [Reese] (indistinct).

- [Ella] You gotta go to bed.

- [Reese] Who says that I have to go to bed?

- [Ella] Me. - [Reese] Why?

- Because you are drunk.

Come on, we gotta get this off too. it stinks.

Is that vodka? - It's gin.

Who do you think? - Okay, okay.

- No. - Yes.

- No, I like it, it's pretty.

- No, come on. - What do mean?

- Lemme help you, come on.

Up, up, over.

- [Reese] You're just looking for another excuse

to take my clothes off.

- Okay, no,

I'm with Talia. - I'm not Talia.

- What? - She's just so like,

you know? - Okay, I'm gonna go

get you like a glass of water.

- I.

I just meant that you.

- I, what?

- I don't know, I think a lot of things.

- Okay. - All the time.

- Mm-hmm, what kind of things?

- I don't know. - Mm-hmm.

- About you, maybe. - Okay, I'm with Talia.

I told you. - Okay.

- And aren't you seeing someone too?

- Everyone's seeing someone.

- Yeah, but aren't you seeing someone?

- It doesn't mean anything, you know?

- It doesn't mean anything?

- No. - Okay, well

you are just drunk and we don't need to have this.

- You're drunk. - I'm not drunk.

We don't need to have this conversation, come on.

We gotta go to bed.

- I'm actually just gonna.

- [Ella] Here you go, water.

- Thanks, I did not puke.

- Oh, I'm so proud.

- Just so you know. - Killed it.

Why were you so drunk?

- 'Cause I was having a good night.

- Mm? - Mm-hmm.

- Do you have a good night often?

- I have a good night when I want to have a good night.

Why is that a big deal?

- It's not a big deal.

I'm just making sure you're okay.

- Okay.

- So

are you

like

seeing anyone?

- What is that supposed to mean?

- I think you know what that means.

Are you dating?

- I don't know.

- Well, like,

what are you doing, like?

- I'm actually doing a lot of things.

- Yeah? - Thank you.

- I am

working at a real estate agency doing admin.

- Hmm. - Yeah.

- That's cool.

- Helping boomers buy their fourth or fifth

investment property.

So,

you know, that takes up like, quite a bit of my time, so.

- Wow. - Yeah.

- Nice.

- Yep.

- Well, I mean,

do you meet a lot of people through work?

- Sure. - I'm just trying to like,

help you, you know?

- Help me work. - Get you know, back on track.

- What do you mean? - I don't know.

I feel like

we need to get you out there and get you meeting people.

- Why? - Because

everyone needs people.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

- But

why are you worrying about that now?

- I don't know, I just.

I'm not around as much so

gonna make sure you have someone.

- Okay.

Look,

I've dated

some people,

but they're not,

they're not you.

(Ella clears throat)

- Well, we've just gotta find someone else.

- Sure. - Mm-hmm.

- How's Talia?

- Yeah,

she's good. - Yeah?

- Yep, Talia's great, we're great.

- [Reese] She's great. - Yes.

- [Reese] Yeah, I feel like your face

didn't say great.

- You couldn't even see my face when I said that.

- I could.

- [Ella] She is great. - Mm-hmm.

- [Ella] What? - Nothing.

I feel like you were like, "She's great",

but like your face was like, "She's great".

Do you know what I mean?

- [Ella] Okay, well

we have fun together. - Mm-hmm.

- [Ella] She's awesome. - Mm-hmm?

- [Ella] Mm-hmm.

Yep.

What?

- Just looking at you.

Is that okay? - Mm.

I

I can't, sorry. - [Reese] Why not?

- Talia loves me, I can't do that to her.

- Do you still love me?

- I'm always going to be there for you as a friend.

I just, I can't

give you more than that.

I'm sorry. - Yeah,

it's fine.

- [Ella] I should probably get going.

But did you need anything, water or?

- No.

- [Ella] It was good to see you.

- Yeah.

- [Ella] Should catch up sometime.

- Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

- [Ella] I'll let myself out.

Bye.

- Bye.

(emotional music continues)

(door bangs shut)

(emotional music continues)

- [Ella] Come on.

(Reese pants)

- No. - [Ella] Oh, you're so close.

(Reese moans)

No, breathe.

You're so close.

Put your hands behind you.

Like this. - [Reese] Too much.

- [Ella] Breathe.

- I mean it.

- We are literally like 20 meters away from the end.

- [Reese] How many people actually pay you to do this?

- What's that about?

- I think you enjoy my torture.

- Uh-huh. - Mm-hmm.

- Uh-huh.

Oh honey,

let it out. - Yep.

- Don't throw up on my shoes.

- I won't. - Good.

There you go. - Just need a minute.

- You did good. - Oh, that was a long one.

- It was, but you killed it.

- Thanks. - I'm proud.

(Ella laughs)

Wanna do it again?

(Reese groans)

- So there was this guy once.

- Yeah. - At work

and the fire alarm went off

and like,

I wasn't sure if it was a drill or not

'cause we usually do drills when people aren't there.

- Yeah. - But anyway, it went off

and I was like, "Okay guys, like we need to evacuate.

We need to get outta there."

And he

wouldn't listen to anything I said.

And instead was like,

"No, I have to finish my set."

And I was like.

- Life or death situation.

- What do you mean you have to finish your set?

And he is like, "No, no, no, just I'll be quick.

I gotta finish this before I run out."

It took like three different like patrons

and I was like, "Can you like help me get him out?"

To get him outta the gym.

- That's crazy. - And I'm like, "Dude,

literally it's not like that big of a deal.

Like, take the weights with you for all I care.

Just get outta the building."

Like, some things are more important than the gains.

I'm sorry. - Yeah, you would think.

You would think.

- Are you gonna join up?

- To where? - To the gym.

- Why? - Why not?

I think you'd like it.

- Why? - I don't know.

Because, like gives you a routine.

It's your hobby. - Mm-hmm.

- Helps you like meet new people.

- I don't need to meet new people.

I've got another date with Leah, so I'm happy.

- How is Leah?

Go on.

- She's kind of cute.

(Ella laughs)

She's got this like cute little way

she sort of scrinkles her nose up.

- Oh my God, the little scrunch?

- When she's like. - Yeah.

- Thinking really hard about something.

It's pretty cute.

- Okay, so where's your date?

- Well I am taking her to a Palace Pickup concert.

- Wow. - Yeah.

- That's big.

- Yeah.

Pretty excited about it, actually.

- It's crazy that we never got to go to one.

- Yeah, I mean, they're still young.

I don't think this is gonna be their last concert.

- Fair point, fair point.

So, take it you like her a lot then.

- Maybe. - Maybe?

- Maybe. - I think you do.

I reckon. - Yeah.

How's Talia going?

- Yeah,

she's good.

- What does that mean?

- I don't know.

Just got things we have to sort out.

- You okay?

- It's fine.

- Doesn't feel fine.

- Seriously, don't worry about it.

It'll all sort itself out.

- Come on. - No.

- It's me.

- I don't know.

She

has this like work opportunity

and

she asked me to move to Singapore with her.

Yeah, see that's what my face did.

- Okay.

- Yeah, so I don't really know what to do with that.

- Singapore? - Mm.

Yeah, I don't know if Singapore is like

the place I wanna be, you know?

- Yeah.

Singapore.

- Yeah.

I haven't said yes or no yet.

I kind of just like,

like she told me and I kind of just sat there

and looked at her and didn't say anything.

And then like our food was ready

so we didn't talk about it anymore.

And it's been like a week since we've actually,

as soon as she brought it up.

And I'm guessing she's gonna bring it up again soon.

And I don't really know what to say.

- Are you gonna do it?

- I don't know.

There are some things keeping me here, so.

- Like?

- Lots of things. - Mm?

- Mm.

Many, many things. - Mm-hmm?

- Mm-hmm.

- It's nice and descriptive.

(Ella laughs)

- I think you know what things are keeping me here.

- I think I hope that I know

what things are keeping you here.

(Ella laughs)

Yeah.

- [Ella] Don't know how Leah would feel

about that though, so.

(Ella laughs)

Anyway. - Anyway.

- I, yeah, I dunno.

I'm trying not to think about it at the moment to be honest.

- Lake looks nice, doesn't it?

- It's one way to change the topic, isn't it?

- Just saying it looks nice.

- It is pretty, I'll give you that.

You really should join the gym, though.

- Oh, stop.

(Ella laughs)

Stop the gym.

Your silly sales pitch.

- Oh, stop.

Oh, okay, let's fix that.

- Okay, feet back a little bit.

- Like this? - Yeah, yeah.

Push this down. - Yeah.

- Shoulders back. - Yeah.

- Yep, and go now, okay.

- [Reese] Like that? - Yeah, that's better.

Go again.

There you go.

Is that okay? - Yeah, yeah.

- You good?

- Oh my God, that's hard.

- One more.

Go, go, go, go, go.

Push, push, push, yeah.

Love your work.

(Ella laughs)

(Reese groans)

Yeah. - Yeah.

- Mm-hmm. - In my chest.

- Yep, breathe, there you go.

(Reese pants)

- How many more sets do I have to do?

- Just one. - Okay.

(Reese groans)

- You can have a longer break.

(Reese pants)

- Why are you looking at me like that?

- I'm not,

just thinking. - Uh-huh?

Yeah, I'm gonna go back to pushups then

if you're gonna be thinking.

- Oh, I'm just thinking about your awful posture, sorry.

- Oh, okay, thank you.

- Put this down.

- What do you mean?

I'm doing it. - There you go.

That's better.

- [Reese] Oh my God, please don't do that to me again.

- No promises. - Oh my gosh.

What am I gonna do tomorrow?

- What do you mean?

- I'm gonna be so sore,

I'm not gonna be able to do anything.

- Just go stretch it out.

- Uh-huh? - Mm-hmm.

- This is me stretching it out.

- You're doing a great job.

That looks like a really effective stretch, actually.

- Thanks.

I'm really sorry

that I acted really weird about Singapore.

- No, you didn't.

You didn't act weird, it's fine.

- Don't think that I expected you to say that.

- Yeah, no, that's fair.

I didn't expect Singapore to even be a thing, so.

Yeah.

And it's not like I've said yes, so.

- You should. - Should I?

- Yeah.

- Why?

- You love Talia, right?

- Yeah, but

doesn't mean I love Singapore.

- Yeah, but you might.

- I don't know.

I just have so much for me here,

but I really don't wanna do the long distance thing again.

- I don't think you should do the long distance thing.

- No, it wasn't very good the first time.

- I think,

I think there's so much for you there.

I feel like you've lost your sparkle a little bit here.

And I dunno, I feel like you light up when you're traveling.

I feel like you love that and you learn languages.

You learned Italian and you'll learn,

I don't really know what they speak in Singapore,

but I think you could learn it, and.

I don't know.

- You have a lot of faith in me.

- I do, because you are really smart

and you are really talented.

You just need to believe in yourself a little bit more.

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

I just like, I've looked up a couple things.

- Like what? - Like they have

these really big dining centers where they serve

like so many different types of Asian food.

- There you go. - (indistinct).

- There you go.

- But like, I don't know, I don't know.

I feel like

isn't Singapore like a business-y place?

- Can make it whatever you want it to be.

- Okay, Miss Philosophy.

Damn.

(Ella laughs)

- You've got twigs all over you.

- I just, yeah.

Like I, what would I even do there?

Like she'd be working all the time, what would I be doing?

- Explore.

Figure out what your next step is.

You're already a trainer.

You can be a trainer anywhere.

- Yeah, just,

I don't know.

Stop looking at me like that.

It's very big decision and I don't have enough time

to make it.

- I just think you gotta do the right thing

for yourself, you know?

(Ella sighs)

- I don't know, I don't know. - Okay.

- I don't know, but I'll think about it more.

- Okay. - There you go.

- I like that.

- You might just be trying to get rid of me

so I don't train you again.

- Yes.

That is actually my ulterior motive.

- Yep, I knew it from the start.

- That is the only way I will ever be free of you.

(Ella laughs awkwardly)

That's not what I meant.

I don't know why I said that.

- No, you're fine.

- I just think that

I don't know what I'm thinking.

Like, she'd do the same for you, wouldn't she?

- Hope so.

What would you do if you were in my shoes?

- Completely different question

because I hate traveling

and I hate new things.

- But like, if it was a girl that you loved.

- A girl that I loved.

- Asking you to go.

- I'd go.

- Right?

- Uh-huh.

(Ella sighs)

- Thanks.

- Okay.

- I'm losing my sunnies.

(Reese laughs)

God.

- Now who looks embarrassing?

- Wow, wow,

wow, come on, I'm getting stabbed by twigs.

How are you not?

- I know you got them all over you.

- Help me. - I'm helping you.

(uptempo music)

Yeah. - There you go.

- It's so beautiful there.

Yeah, it's so beautiful.

Like it's, there's just the amount of like floral

that's over there.

The amount of flowers and the amount of plants.

It's so much better than Melbourne.

- Yeah, no, it's gorgeous over there, stunning.

So warm though. - I know.

Just work's kind of busy, but that's okay.

So, yeah.

- That's so good.

- Yeah, yeah.

How's your personal training thing going?

- Yeah, good, good, got a lot of clients in Singapore.

- Oh, great. - Which I was a bit

scared about starting it over there,

but it's going really well.

- (indistinct). - Yeah, yeah.

But it's going really great, so yeah.

That's really exciting.

- Okay, yeah.

I got you guys a little gift.

- You didn't have to do that.

- It's really not a big deal.

It's in the fridge, so you can open that later.

But

yeah, thanks so much for inviting me.

- Thank you so much. - Thank you for coming.

- It's really good to see.

- Have you guys set a date?

Or like what's happening?

- [Ella] Hi. - Hi.

- [Ella] What are you doing in here?

- Oh, you know,

just looking for Mr. Boggans.

- Oh my God.

(Ella laughs)

I miss Mr. Boggans.

- What happened to him?

- I had to get rid of all my stuff,

or most of my stuff when I left, so.

- Yeah. - I donated most of it,

but Mr. Boggans is staying with my mum.

- Nice, safekeeping. - Yep.

- It looks really weird.

- I know, it's so empty.

It's kind of sad.

Reminds me of high school a little bit, actually.

- Yeah.

Yeah, actually.

Felt like a lot happened in here.

- Yeah.

- Do you remember that party that you threw

that you were absolutely not supposed to?

(Ella and Reese laugh)

And there were those people like almost doing it

on your bed. - Okay.

- And I had to chase them out

and you were so stressed the whole night.

- I was not that stressed. - Yes, you were.

- It was not that bad.

- Yes, it was. - It really wasn't.

I promise it wasn't.

- How do you not remember this?

- I do remember this.

It just wasn't as bad as you're saying it was.

(Ella laughs)

Oh God, and that was the night we had our first kiss too.

- Yeah.

I think I could pass for 17.

I got carded the other night.

- Are you sure, really?

- Yeah. - Really?

- Absolute, don't look at me like that.

That's really mean.

- Hey, okay, come on.

Do you think I could pass for 17?

- Yes. - I don't believe you.

We are getting old.

It's part of the process, it's okay.

We have wrinkles, it's normal. - Mm-hmm.

- Gotta embrace it, you know?

- Yeah, yeah. - Yeah.

- Gotta move on.

- Yeah, I mean, Singapore.

- Yeah,

it's so crazy.

I don't even know what to think about that.

- Yeah, but you're excited, right?

- Yeah.

I actually got you a present.

- It's your engagement party.

- Yes.

It's not,

it's not really a present, so

I'm just gonna (indistinct).

- I made them for you. - Yes, so it's

really not a present 'cause you gave them to me.

But I wanted you to try your own baking

and we won't be able to take them

all through customs anyway,

so don't want them to go to waste.

- Cheers.

(Ella laughs)

Mm, mm. - Mm?

Of course they're good, you baked them.

- I know. - We know it would be

very different if I did.

- Absolutely. - Mm.

- So you're gonna be

in a whole other country. - Mm-hmm.

And you'll be here.

- Yep.

That I will be.

- I mean, I'll come back to visit.

- Yeah,

'cause you got family here and stuff, so.

- But yeah.

Family,

and I. - Oh, it's fine.

- I have to. - Oh, okay.

- You probably need to get back to Talia and.

- Yeah, she probably is wondering where I am, but yeah,
