<i>Were you thinking</i>

8
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,296
Uh. No. It's about--

9
00:01:02,396 --> 00:01:05,900
It's about families. It's about
love. It's about war. It's about

10
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:12,139
our search for deeper
connection. It's about
being forcefully separated.

11
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:14,609
It's about my
experiences growing up.

00:03:25,006 --> 00:03:27,709
You sure you want to get rid
of these? I mean...

18
00:03:27,809 --> 00:03:29,877
there's some old movies in here,
a lot of them are out of print.

19
00:03:30,845 --> 00:03:32,747
Yeah, yeah. It's
time to move on.

20
00:03:33,815 --> 00:03:36,084
You sound like my ex.

21
00:03:36,184 --> 00:03:37,484
-Really?
-Yeah.

22
00:03:37,585 --> 00:03:40,722
She made me throw
away my bootleg copy of Titanic.

23
00:03:40,822 --> 00:03:42,857
Uh. That must've
been like two tapes?

24
00:03:42,957 --> 00:03:46,027
It was. I stole it while I was
backpacking in Istanbul.

25
00:03:46,961 --> 00:03:51,364
Yeah. I, uh, watched
it in the TV room with
this Israeli girl.

26
00:03:51,465 --> 00:03:56,704
And, um, let's just
say best night ever. You know
what I mean?

27
00:03:56,804 --> 00:03:59,807
And I do still watch Titanic
here and there, just,

28
00:03:59,907 --> 00:04:02,810
when I get lonely. Don't judge
me about it, okay?

29
00:04:03,010 --> 00:04:04,979
[customer] You know, that would
just ruin the movie for me

30
00:04:05,079 --> 00:04:07,414
because I'd be watching it,
thinking about the memory

31
00:04:07,515 --> 00:04:09,217
instead of enjoying it
in the moment.

32
00:04:10,852 --> 00:04:12,954
Okay, well here's a
question for you.
[clicks tongue]

33
00:04:13,054 --> 00:04:16,691
If you had a time portal that
could take you to your favorite

34
00:04:16,791 --> 00:04:20,828
memory of all time
would you do it?

35
00:04:23,898 --> 00:04:26,234
Yeah, I guess my point
is that I know there
isn't one,

36
00:04:26,333 --> 00:04:27,668
so I'm not gonna entertain
the thought because it would

37
00:04:27,769 --> 00:04:28,803
just frustrate me.

38
00:04:29,704 --> 00:04:32,807
Well, you don't know if there
isn't one, and I would jump head
first.

39
00:04:32,907 --> 00:04:35,643
-Take me back to
Istanbul immediately.
-[customer laughs]

40
00:04:35,743 --> 00:04:40,548
-Alrighty.
-Yeah. Yeah, you're
probably right. Hey!

41
00:04:40,882 --> 00:04:47,021
Promise me you'll survive.
That you won't give up,
no matter what happens,

42
00:04:47,121 --> 00:04:49,724
no matter how hopeless.

43
00:04:49,824 --> 00:04:54,662
Never let go, Jack.
Never. let. Go.

44
00:04:56,429 --> 00:04:57,732
-I said never let go. No.
-Okay, let go.

45
00:04:57,832 --> 00:04:59,100
-Let go.
-Okay, you can go.

46
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,701
Hey! Thank you for supporting
the cause.

47
00:05:00,802 --> 00:05:01,536
You got it, buddy.

48
00:05:01,636 --> 00:05:02,770
We appreciate it.

49
00:05:24,457 --> 00:05:25,425
Laela?

50
00:05:27,662 --> 00:05:30,698
Uh, oh. Oh my god, how are you?

51
00:05:30,798 --> 00:05:33,201
I'm good. Yeah. You?

52
00:05:33,366 --> 00:05:36,304
Good, yeah. You?

53
00:05:38,539 --> 00:05:43,476
You're good. You already said
that. Uh, I'm sorry. I just,
um...

54
00:05:43,578 --> 00:05:45,646
I--I know, this
is kinda surreal.

55
00:05:45,746 --> 00:05:48,883
Yeah. Yes, it's not
everyday you run into a...

56
00:05:51,886 --> 00:05:54,555
The most amazing human ever.

57
00:05:54,755 --> 00:05:56,858
Yeah. Yeah. Something like that.

58
00:05:59,827 --> 00:06:02,663
Well, I, uh, don't
wanna hold you up or...

59
00:06:02,763 --> 00:06:05,465
No, no, my car is just around
the corner.

60
00:06:06,466 --> 00:06:08,269
I'll walk with you.

61
00:06:08,368 --> 00:06:09,804
Yeah. That'll be great.

62
00:06:14,842 --> 00:06:17,879
It's a...
It's super muggy out
today.

63
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,782
Yeah... I kinda like it though.

64
00:06:22,183 --> 00:06:27,688
Yeah. You, um, you always walk
around with DVDs?

65
00:06:29,156 --> 00:06:31,726
Fuck! Oh my god I think I just
stole this.

66
00:06:31,826 --> 00:06:34,795
It takes a certain kind
of scumbag to steal from
a struggling business.

67
00:06:34,896 --> 00:06:36,797
Oh, I feel terrible.

68
00:06:36,898 --> 00:06:38,666
It's fine, I'm sure they have a
ton of copies.

69
00:06:38,766 --> 00:06:40,701
Uh. It gives me a chance to
go back.

70
00:06:40,801 --> 00:06:41,669
Yeah.

71
00:06:41,836 --> 00:06:45,873
What is that? <i>Blind Chance?</i>

72
00:06:45,973 --> 00:06:48,743
Is that the one with the
guy who misses the train?

73
00:06:48,876 --> 00:06:51,779
Yeah. They remade it in the 90s.

74
00:06:51,879 --> 00:06:56,217
Oh yeah. Huh. Some things
you just Shouldn't remake.

75
00:07:02,223 --> 00:07:04,225
It's really good
to see you, Colin.

76
00:07:06,827 --> 00:07:09,496
Yeah. Yeah. It's
good to see you too.

77
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,569
So, what brings you
out here anyway?

78
00:07:15,736 --> 00:07:20,741
Been here for a month, working,
on a sculpture. For the IRC,
for the refugee counsel.

79
00:07:20,841 --> 00:07:24,679
-Oh. Wow.
-They're raising funds to
resettle families in the U.S.

80
00:07:25,379 --> 00:07:26,681
That's really cool.

81
00:07:26,847 --> 00:07:30,117
Yeah. But, I'm not
working with them
directly.

82
00:07:30,217 --> 00:07:32,853
I'm going
through their marketing
PR agency,

83
00:07:32,954 --> 00:07:35,156
-and oh my god...
-Horrible people?

84
00:07:35,256 --> 00:07:37,490
Ugh. They're like people who
thought they could be creative

85
00:07:37,591 --> 00:07:40,728
and be all business too.

86
00:07:40,828 --> 00:07:46,367
Still. I mean, you're like a
full time artist?

87
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:48,135
Travel,
art, and philanthropy?

88
00:07:48,936 --> 00:07:50,705
Yeah, that's me.

89
00:07:50,805 --> 00:07:53,407
God. Look at you go.
I mean,

90
00:07:53,507 --> 00:07:55,810
that's awesome.
You're living the dream.

91
00:07:56,410 --> 00:07:58,846
Yeah, I love it.

92
00:07:58,946 --> 00:08:03,684
It's been an adventure. My
next project is in KL.

93
00:08:05,953 --> 00:08:11,292
I guess what I'm getting
at is, um, what are you
doing in South Pas?

94
00:08:11,392 --> 00:08:15,162
-Oh, yes. Random, right?
-Right.

95
00:08:15,262 --> 00:08:19,834
Oh, well, it's gonna sound weird
but...

96
00:08:19,934 --> 00:08:22,870
everywhere I go I like
to check out the neighborhoods,

97
00:08:23,070 --> 00:08:27,274
I'll notice that this
house is exactly the
same.

98
00:08:27,375 --> 00:08:32,613
This one's been
remodeled. The family
station wagon and trampolines

99
00:08:32,713 --> 00:08:36,784
replaced with this hot
convertible, and...

100
00:08:36,884 --> 00:08:40,788
then I just make up a story
about what happened. I
don't know,

101
00:08:40,888 --> 00:08:45,292
something I do for
for inspiration. Usually
when I have a creative block.

102
00:08:48,829 --> 00:08:51,098
-What?
-[Colin laughs]

103
00:08:51,198 --> 00:08:57,438
Nothing. Just your, um, accent,
it's, uh, gone.

104
00:08:57,538 --> 00:09:02,443
I mean, I'm
sure it's in there. Somewhere.

105
00:09:03,878 --> 00:09:07,882
. I guess twenty years of moving
place to place will do that.

106
00:09:09,750 --> 00:09:10,751
Yeah.

107
00:09:16,724 --> 00:09:19,794
[Laela] You know, most people
think of palm trees and
beaches, but...

108
00:09:19,894 --> 00:09:23,197
this is exactly what I picture
when I think of California.

109
00:09:23,297 --> 00:09:25,833
I've always wanted to
see them from the inside.

110
00:09:26,133 --> 00:09:30,004
Hm. Ah, yes. The classic Cali
bungalow.

111
00:09:30,104 --> 00:09:33,240
You know there's something
powerful about the
relationship between the columns

112
00:09:33,340 --> 00:09:37,812
and the low pitch roofs.
Like it's going to stubbornly
stay in this spot forever. Ha.

113
00:09:39,847 --> 00:09:43,818
Do you work for the
historical society or something?

114
00:09:43,918 --> 00:09:46,887
Ha. No. I work with
an architectural firm.

115
00:09:47,621 --> 00:09:50,024
-You're an architect?
-Uh, a consultant.

116
00:09:50,124 --> 00:09:51,826
I, uh, do the marketing
for them.

117
00:09:52,593 --> 00:09:55,596
-Oh, crap.
-Hotels and tourism boards.
Yeah. Horrible person.

118
00:09:55,696 --> 00:09:58,666
Oh my god, I'm so
sorry about that marketing
comment. I'm so-

119
00:09:58,766 --> 00:10:00,334
-That's fine.
-I'm...

120
00:10:00,434 --> 00:10:02,036
Clearly time has turned you
into a thief

121
00:10:02,136 --> 00:10:03,704
and just an all
around horrible person. so...

122
00:10:03,804 --> 00:10:07,576
Ah... There's hope. I am not
that dead inside. I promise.

123
00:10:07,675 --> 00:10:12,713
Yeah... Has it really been
twenty Years?

124
00:10:13,881 --> 00:10:16,585
Twenty-three. Actually.

125
00:10:20,654 --> 00:10:24,325
You're looking at me
like I'm a stranger. Am
I really that different?

126
00:10:24,425 --> 00:10:26,994
I don't know. Maybe I'm just
shocked

127
00:10:27,094 --> 00:10:29,997
that you're here right now.
I can't wrap my head around it.

128
00:10:31,732 --> 00:10:34,735
-You're saying I've aged
aren't you?
-No, no! I'm not.

129
00:10:34,835 --> 00:10:37,104
-That's totally
what you're saying!
-That's not what I'm saying.

130
00:10:37,204 --> 00:10:40,708
Well, you're no spring chicken
either! Mister model.

131
00:10:40,808 --> 00:10:43,911
Ex child model. And
you look great, by the way.

132
00:10:44,011 --> 00:10:46,814
Yeah. Yeah. You're just trying
to get out of trouble now.

133
00:10:46,914 --> 00:10:49,150
That's pretty much all the time.

134
00:10:49,850 --> 00:10:52,786
Well, you look exactly
like I imagined you would.

135
00:10:54,655 --> 00:11:00,161
Well, maybe it's, uh,
how quickly we all left Jakarta.

136
00:11:00,261 --> 00:11:02,796
But, um, some
faces are just frozen in time.

137
00:11:09,504 --> 00:11:13,774
Now there's a happy couple.
What's your last name?

138
00:11:14,241 --> 00:11:17,111
Um... Sorry, what do you mean?

139
00:11:18,445 --> 00:11:21,115
Lee! We're the Lees.

140
00:11:22,716 --> 00:11:24,952
Just wipe your feet cause I
don't want anything coming in
here.

141
00:11:25,052 --> 00:11:28,689
And shut the door
cause I don't flies coming into
this house. Okay.

142
00:11:28,789 --> 00:11:33,727
Come on in. Settle
down. And just feel the
energy of this room.

143
00:11:34,495 --> 00:11:36,830
The light in here is great.

144
00:11:36,931 --> 00:11:40,734
-It is?
-Yeah. It's, uh,
not like our place.

145
00:11:40,834 --> 00:11:42,303
Is it too dark?

146
00:11:42,403 --> 00:11:44,338
No. It's, uh, too bright.

147
00:11:44,438 --> 00:11:46,774
Yeah, we have to put on sun
block before bed,

148
00:11:46,874 --> 00:11:48,543
the soft complexion of the face.

149
00:11:48,643 --> 00:11:51,879
[laughs] You don't want to

Okay, follow me.

Here we have a fantastic,
and I mean fantastic

152
00:11:56,083 --> 00:11:57,851
dining room. But I hate
to cook, do you cook?

153
00:11:58,553 --> 00:12:00,655
Uh, on, um, Mondays.

154
00:12:00,754 --> 00:12:02,856
[laughs] I hate to
cook. I hate people.

155
00:12:03,724 --> 00:12:05,893
Fully remodeled
kitchen. Brand new
appliances.

156
00:12:05,993 --> 00:12:08,796
Everywhere.
I mean, is this great
or what? And it's just

157
00:12:08,896 --> 00:12:11,098
the perfect room for big family
gatherings.

158

in the kitchen,

-Right this way. I want to
show you something.

favorite room.

Hey, what's with the plant pics?

162
00:12:19,473 --> 00:12:22,109
Uh, taking reference
photos for my plant empire.

How's that going?

owned one.
-Seriously?

-Yeah, I'm never
in the apartment.
-Absolutely my favorite room.

Hello!

I'm going to steal your husband.

Okay, now. Believe me,
I saved the best for last.

170
00:12:44,164 --> 00:12:48,235
Look at this fabulous
backyard. You've got a
wonderful pool.

171
00:12:48,335 --> 00:12:51,405
And what's great is that you
could have a meal out
here if you wanted to.

172

This would be perfect for Illy

The overbearing
kind. A real bitch.

about the pool is just the right
size,

wanted-- You hear that?

179
00:13:18,265 --> 00:13:22,570
The sound of children playing in
a backyard. Do ya have children?

302
00:22:49,203 --> 00:22:51,572
-[Laela] Are we laughing?
-[Colin] Yeah.

303
00:22:51,672 --> 00:22:53,641
Why--why are we laughing?

304
00:22:53,741 --> 00:22:56,711
[sighs] I don't know. But it
feels good.

305
00:22:59,347 --> 00:23:02,316
Yeah. Yeah, it does.

306
00:23:02,415 --> 00:23:05,119
You wanna come up? See my work?

307
00:23:05,219 --> 00:23:08,055
-[sighs] You know, I'd love to.
-Oh, no, no. It's
cool.

308
00:23:08,155 --> 00:23:10,558
-I'd love to. But you know...
-I know. I know.

309
00:23:10,658 --> 00:23:12,560
but dudes are showing
up, and it's a whole thing.

310
00:23:12,660 --> 00:23:16,396
No, no. I do. I do want to
check out your sculpture. I do.

311
00:23:17,665 --> 00:23:21,401
I guess it's not everyday
you run into someone from
twenty years ago.

312
00:23:21,502 --> 00:23:23,571
Someone
who doesn't ask where
you're from,

313
00:23:23,671 --> 00:23:25,606
why you moved around so much...

314
00:23:25,706 --> 00:23:30,278
What mix are you? Do you
know karate? Did you
ride tigers to school?

315
00:23:30,378 --> 00:23:31,579
Exactly.

316
00:23:31,679 --> 00:23:32,580
Yeah.

317
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,617
But... [sighs] I got shit to do.

318
00:23:36,717 --> 00:23:40,621
You got shit to do. Yeah.

319
00:23:42,924 --> 00:23:43,925
Okay.

320
00:23:45,559 --> 00:23:50,463
Well, I mean,
wanna help me pack?

321
00:23:52,667 --> 00:23:58,438
Tempting but, I kinda have
this thing with the IRC people.

322
00:23:58,539 --> 00:24:03,110
Right, of course, you
mentioned that. You have
actual work, um, to do.

323
00:24:03,210 --> 00:24:08,582
Sorry, sorry. That was
silly of me to ask.
[sighs]

324
00:24:08,683 --> 00:24:11,686
Run along now to your
plasters and clays.

325
00:24:25,833 --> 00:24:30,271
No. Not this time.

326
00:24:30,371 --> 00:24:37,378
["Fomo" by Glom plays]

327
00:24:56,030 --> 00:24:58,566
This is my place.

328
00:24:58,666 --> 00:25:00,701
Colin, this place looks amazing.

329
00:25:00,801 --> 00:25:05,473
Yeah. Yeah. It's a shame the
new owners are tearing it down.

330
00:25:06,674 --> 00:25:08,042
That's so sad.

331
00:25:08,576 --> 00:25:10,578
The tragedy of Northeast LA.

332
00:25:11,545 --> 00:25:12,680
[trash lid slams shut]

333
00:25:14,915 --> 00:25:18,352
-He looks friendly.
-Oh, yeah.
That's Ruben,

334
00:25:18,452 --> 00:25:20,454
he doesn't look like it
but he's the neighborhood
gossip.

335
00:25:20,588 --> 00:25:23,157
Here, take the
key and let yourself in.

336
00:25:25,659 --> 00:25:28,596
[Colin] Hey! Reuben!

337
00:25:46,180 --> 00:25:47,181
[door shuts]

338
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:20,581
Pilea Pepero.

339
00:26:20,681 --> 00:26:24,519
[door opens and shuts]

340
00:26:25,419 --> 00:26:31,526
Welcome to the chaos. I
swear it's not normally
like this. [sighs]

341
00:26:31,625 --> 00:26:34,563
Can I get you something to
drink? I think I'm down to tap

342
00:26:34,662 --> 00:26:36,397
water and hard
liquor at this point.

343
00:26:36,497 --> 00:26:38,567
I'm good, thanks.

344
00:26:38,666 --> 00:26:41,570
Okay. Cool, well make yourself
at home.

345
00:26:41,669 --> 00:26:45,507
Or, uh, whatever this
is. I'll be back in a sec.

346
00:27:18,072 --> 00:27:18,973
[sighs]

347
00:27:20,074 --> 00:27:21,041
[sighs]

348
00:27:37,592 --> 00:27:44,131
It's a beautiful house.
It's so alive, and all
the plants! This view!

349
00:27:45,132 --> 00:27:46,133
Yeah.

350
00:27:46,535 --> 00:27:47,602
Holy shit! Is that the ocean?

351
00:27:48,669 --> 00:27:54,408
Oh yeah. Like miles down there.
Past the smog. Yeah. [laughs]

352
00:27:54,675 --> 00:27:57,546
There's something super familiar
about LA to me.

353
00:27:57,646 --> 00:28:00,314
It's like this sprawl reminds me
of an Asian city.

354
00:28:00,681 --> 00:28:04,752
Yeah, I was in fourth grade
when we went on this

355
00:28:04,852 --> 00:28:08,355
great American road trip.

356
00:28:08,455 --> 00:28:12,459
Yeah, we lived in Poland
at the time and I remember

357
00:28:12,561 --> 00:28:15,664
my mind was blown.
So much of everything:

358
00:28:15,763 --> 00:28:19,668
landscapes, people, sense
of freedom.

359
00:28:21,468 --> 00:28:25,607
We walked into a grocery store
and I was speechless.
So much stuff!

360
00:28:25,873 --> 00:28:27,576
The consumerism here is insane.

361
00:28:27,676 --> 00:28:30,077
Yeah and I was visiting
from a place with food
shortages!

362
00:28:31,712 --> 00:28:34,683
We didn't
have access to cool
things but...

363
00:28:35,716 --> 00:28:38,520
I remember being a really
happy kid.

364
00:28:39,086 --> 00:28:41,722
And that's why you
came back and stayed?

365
00:28:41,822 --> 00:28:43,857
Because of the grocery
stores and overconsumption?

366
00:28:43,958 --> 00:28:46,561
No, that's not what I meant.

367
00:28:46,661 --> 00:28:49,363
-God. That's what it is here!
-What?

368
00:28:49,463 --> 00:28:52,266
Why it feels like Asia
here. It's this poverty gap.

369
00:28:52,534 --> 00:28:55,169
Ok, take it easy,
it's not that bad here.

370
00:28:55,503 --> 00:28:59,473
Oh my god! Have you
been downtown? You've
seen the tents, right?

371
00:28:59,574 --> 00:29:01,909
Sure, LA has its problems
but what city doesn't?

372
00:29:02,009 --> 00:29:05,179
Okay... Colin. C'mon. It's ok to
love a place but

373
00:29:05,279 --> 00:29:07,582
love it for
its faults too. Don't pretend.

374
00:29:07,682 --> 00:29:10,585
I love all of it! I love all of
it! I do.

375
00:29:10,685 --> 00:29:12,687
Otherwise I wouldn't
have been so drawn to this city.

376
00:29:13,387 --> 00:29:16,156
Do you feel accepted
here? I mean, for being...

377
00:29:17,091 --> 00:29:21,730
What? Mixed?

378
00:29:21,829 --> 00:29:26,100
Of all the cities I've lived in
this is as close as I've come.

379
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:31,740
I'm still not Asian enough and
I'm sure as hell not white
enough, but...

380
00:29:31,839 --> 00:29:35,142
You know here, nobody cares.

381
00:29:36,343 --> 00:29:39,446
So in a weird way
you can be yourself?

382
00:29:39,681 --> 00:29:40,682
Yeah.

383
00:29:41,949 --> 00:29:45,352
Well, in France I'm exotic

384
00:29:45,452 --> 00:29:49,490
and in Korea I'm a big
disappointment.

385
00:29:50,692 --> 00:29:51,660
Makes sense.

386
00:30:00,669 --> 00:30:04,673
You know, of all the cities I've
lived, this is the one.

387
00:30:07,474 --> 00:30:08,809
I've never really felt that.

388
00:30:12,279 --> 00:30:13,682
About a place.

389
00:30:22,691 --> 00:30:23,991
Where'd you go?

390
00:30:25,694 --> 00:30:31,666
After the riots? Singapore.
A lot of Jakarta kids went
there actually.

391
00:30:34,001 --> 00:30:37,572
Yeah. I'm glad you
guys got out okay.

392
00:30:37,672 --> 00:30:41,576
Yeah. Well, Mom and I
did.

393
00:30:41,676 --> 00:30:46,847
My father stayed back.
He thought he could save
what he built but he couldn't.

394
00:30:47,948 --> 00:30:52,252
When things calmed down,
we went back and...

395
00:30:52,353 --> 00:30:57,858
our entire neighborhood
had been burned to
the ground. We lost everything,

396
00:30:57,958 --> 00:30:59,561
all the memories.

397
00:30:59,661 --> 00:31:04,298
Damn. Sorry to hear that. Is he
okay? You know, safe, I mean.

398
00:31:04,532 --> 00:31:11,405
Yeah, physically, but
he just wasn't the same
after that.

399
00:31:11,506 --> 00:31:14,676
It was like
a light went out in his eyes.

400
00:31:15,909 --> 00:31:18,546
That's terrible. I'm
sorry to hear that.

401
00:31:22,883 --> 00:31:26,153
But I went back in 2008.

402
00:31:27,154 --> 00:31:28,055
To Jakarta?

403
00:31:28,155 --> 00:31:29,022
Yeah!

404
00:31:29,123 --> 00:31:32,660
No way!
Uh, yeah.

405
00:31:32,761 --> 00:31:38,298
Oh! Hey, is that Tanamur
place still there?

406
00:31:38,666 --> 00:31:42,169
Ah! No! That place we ran into
your mom?

407
00:31:42,269 --> 00:31:47,675
Yeah! Yeah. You know, she got
us wasted on those Singapore
slings.

408
00:31:47,975 --> 00:31:51,679
My god. I forgot about that.
[laughs]

409
00:31:51,780 --> 00:31:56,885
No. It's, um, yeah... It's all
gone.

410
00:31:56,984 --> 00:32:00,154
Um, Jakarta
is completely rebuilt now.

411
00:32:02,690 --> 00:32:05,058
-Shit...
-But, you know,

412
00:32:05,159 --> 00:32:08,563
a part of me feels like it was
good that I went back

413
00:32:08,663 --> 00:32:14,702
because it reinspired me to keep
seeing the world.
To keep the adventure going.

414
00:32:21,676 --> 00:32:26,514
I love how the LA sun feels
on my skin.

415
00:32:27,281 --> 00:32:29,884
You come out here
naked in the mornings?

416
00:32:31,218 --> 00:32:33,688
[laughs] No...

417
00:32:35,422 --> 00:32:38,292
-Oh my god, why not? Are
you a puritan now?
-No.

418
00:32:38,392 --> 00:32:39,727
-You've turned into a puritan.
-Oh my god,

419
00:32:39,828 --> 00:32:41,729
Lae not everybody lives in
a Bertolucci film, okay?

420
00:32:41,830 --> 00:32:45,432
Oh my god, I'd be out
here everyday enjoying this sun,

421
00:32:45,533 --> 00:32:48,670
and air, on
your skin! It's like magic.

422
00:32:49,369 --> 00:32:52,372
I'd be the crazy lady who
does this till she's eighty.

423
00:32:53,340 --> 00:32:54,676
That doesn't surprise me.

424
00:32:56,376 --> 00:32:58,680
Well, let's do it together.

425
00:32:59,781 --> 00:33:00,582
Do what?

426
00:33:00,682 --> 00:33:02,149
Enjoy some sun.

427
00:33:02,349 --> 00:33:04,919
-No. What are you doing?
No, no. Get outta here.
-What?

428
00:33:05,018 --> 00:33:07,655
-No. Absolutely not!
-Oh my god! It's
nothing I haven't seen!

429
00:33:07,755 --> 00:33:09,824
I'm good, thank you.
I'm good.

430
00:33:09,924 --> 00:33:11,626
Fine. I'll go solo.

431
00:33:12,092 --> 00:33:14,662
What? No! No! No! No!
No! Do not! Okay!

432
00:33:14,762 --> 00:33:16,731
I have neighbors. Jesus...

433
00:33:16,831 --> 00:33:20,935
-Uh, um. Alright here. Okay,
so...
-Okay, okay, okay, okay.

434
00:33:21,034 --> 00:33:26,006
Let's get to work. I'm here
to work. Pack your house.

435
00:33:26,908 --> 00:33:30,043
Uh, so I'm going to
take Koji's room. If you want
to take the office.

436
00:33:30,143 --> 00:33:33,648
There's some
sharpies in there, just need to
label all the boxes, office.

437
00:33:34,281 --> 00:33:36,283
-Got it.
-Cool.

438
00:33:36,851 --> 00:33:38,285
Who's Koji?

439
00:33:39,687 --> 00:33:42,590
Uh... Koji is... my son.

440
00:33:44,692 --> 00:33:46,661
-Cute.
-Yeah, he's four.

441
00:33:47,060 --> 00:33:48,161
What's his mom's name?

442
00:33:48,262 --> 00:33:50,865
Uh, Sofia.

443
00:33:50,965 --> 00:33:55,435
Well, I'm sure she's as
beautiful as her name
suggests.

444
00:33:55,537 --> 00:33:58,238
Probably very
smart too, knowing your
taste in women.

445
00:33:58,338 --> 00:34:01,876
[sighs] Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
She's punctual.

446
00:34:02,677 --> 00:34:03,945
Punctual?

447
00:34:05,145 --> 00:34:11,184
Oh, and she's other things
too. You know, she's, uh,
driven, and caring.

448
00:34:11,285 --> 00:34:13,320
And she's a great mother.

449
00:34:14,689 --> 00:34:15,657
And punctual.

450
00:34:16,156 --> 00:34:18,091
That's not easy
to come by in LA.

451
00:34:19,426 --> 00:34:20,929
How long have you been married?

452
00:34:21,663 --> 00:34:26,000
[sighs] Four. No.
Ah, shit. Sorry.

453
00:34:26,099 --> 00:34:29,003
Five. Five years. Yeah.

454
00:34:29,102 --> 00:34:34,241
Yeah, we got pregnant with Koji,
and um, we decided to
do the thing.

455
00:34:37,579 --> 00:34:39,614
Fatherhood looks great on you.

456
00:34:40,949 --> 00:34:43,685
Yeah. Fake it 'till you make it
I guess.

457
00:34:44,886 --> 00:34:47,387
[laughs] What do you mean?

458
00:34:47,487 --> 00:34:51,793
Well, I'm just-- You know
I'm saying. You have plans
and then, you know,

459
00:34:51,893 --> 00:34:56,931
your plans change and you kinda
have to put your
shit aside and make it up

460
00:34:57,031 --> 00:35:01,669
as you go along. It's not like
when you're single and you
can just focus on yourself.

461
00:35:02,670 --> 00:35:05,974
-Okay, well...
-Oh, That wasn't a dig at you.
I'm sorry.

462
00:35:06,074 --> 00:35:10,645
Newsflash, being single sucks,
my friend,

463
00:35:10,745 --> 00:35:14,247
especially at our age.
Everyone has shit to do and you

464
00:35:14,348 --> 00:35:17,585
wake up every morning to an
empty bed and a quiet house.

465
00:35:17,685 --> 00:35:21,421
Ah, you have no idea how
luxurious an empty bed
and quiet time sounds.

466
00:35:22,289 --> 00:35:29,097
Yeah? Imagine it every day.
I once went two weeks without
contact with a single soul.

467
00:35:32,100 --> 00:35:37,237
Hmm. Yeah. Yeah, I'm
not sold.

468
00:35:37,337 --> 00:35:42,309
But, maybe being stuck indoors
with the right person
wouldn't be such a bad thing.

469
00:35:46,848 --> 00:35:51,519
Right... Well... I'll
get started here.

470
00:35:51,619 --> 00:35:52,954
[knocking on door]

471
00:35:53,054 --> 00:35:55,056
Oh, that's probably the
movers.

472
00:35:55,188 --> 00:35:57,525
-I should, uh, I should go--
-Yeah! Yeah. Go.

473
00:35:57,625 --> 00:35:59,093
Let me know if
you need anything.

474
00:36:19,413 --> 00:36:21,415
[Laela's phone buzzes]

475
00:36:31,224 --> 00:36:33,127
-Heya guys! I'm Colin.
-Hey what's up man?
We're the movers.

476
00:36:33,226 --> 00:36:36,164
-I'm Mitch and this is
Earl. We're brown and move it
around town.

477
00:36:36,263 --> 00:36:37,732
-Are you Colin?
-Yeah, I'm Colin.

478
00:36:37,832 --> 00:36:39,399
You're Colin? Are you
sure? Alright,

479
00:36:39,499 --> 00:36:41,903
so, uh, what are we
working with here?

480
00:36:42,003 --> 00:36:44,639
Uh, yeah. This is, uh,
most of the stuff here.

481
00:36:44,739 --> 00:36:48,076
These boxes, and, uh,
there's a few more upstairs.

482
00:36:48,176 --> 00:36:50,912
Okay, upstairs. You got any
weird hipster shit we should
know about?

483
00:36:51,012 --> 00:36:53,346
Last place we
moved out on York, homeboy had a
fucking aquarium

484
00:36:53,681 --> 00:36:56,316
with some alien looking
fungus thing in brown water

485
00:36:56,416 --> 00:36:59,419
he called Scooby.
Shit was gross, yeah?

486
00:36:59,687 --> 00:37:03,658
Uh, no. No Scooby
here. Yeah, good there.

487
00:37:03,758 --> 00:37:05,827
Um, you guys are moving
my car as well.

488
00:37:05,927 --> 00:37:07,494
That needs to go down to the
depot for the move.

489
00:37:07,595 --> 00:37:08,930
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Definitely.

490
00:37:09,030 --> 00:37:10,497
That's what
you're paying us for, right?

491
00:37:11,933 --> 00:37:13,000
Is he okay?

492
00:37:13,101 --> 00:37:14,035
[exhales loudly]

493
00:37:14,135 --> 00:37:15,435
What's up big guy?

494
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,578
Jordan. Aguinaldo.

495
00:37:23,678 --> 00:37:27,414
Huh. Dude, I knew I
recognized this place!

496
00:37:27,515 --> 00:37:31,586
This was like two different
places before. Like they
knocked down that wall.

497
00:37:31,953 --> 00:37:34,055
Uh... Who is that?

498
00:37:34,387 --> 00:37:37,290
We grew up here until like,
high school, y'know.

499
00:37:37,390 --> 00:37:39,894
Like, Jordan was a homie
from back then.

500
00:37:39,994 --> 00:37:42,395
Anywho, we got two extra guys,
six total, so,

501
00:37:42,496 --> 00:37:44,732
we're looking at 45 tops down
here.

502
00:37:44,932 --> 00:37:49,302
Uh, yeah. Sounds good. Uh, feel
free to send guys up when you
guys are finished up down here.

503
00:37:49,402 --> 00:37:50,671
Alright!

504
00:37:52,472 --> 00:37:54,575
-Dude.
-Yeah.

505
00:37:54,675 --> 00:37:55,643
-Pretty nice.
-Yea.

506
00:37:55,743 --> 00:37:57,578
gentrification is a trip.

507
00:37:57,678 --> 00:37:59,379
Gen-tri-fication!

508

["Calm Me Down"
by Shelter Boy plays]

509
00:40:36,170 --> 00:40:37,171
Hey Reuben.

510
00:40:38,471 --> 00:40:41,342
I was seeing if you wanted to
take any of these plants.

511
00:40:42,176 --> 00:40:44,645
I'm not running a Goodwill here,
Colin.

512
00:40:45,012 --> 00:40:47,114
Alright, I'll, uh, see
if Maria wants them.

513
00:40:47,214 --> 00:40:50,584
Uh, no, no, no, no.
She'll just let them die.
Come on, bring here.

514
00:40:50,685 --> 00:40:52,586
You sure? I'm sure she'll
be happy to take them.

515
00:40:52,687 --> 00:40:54,822
Yeah, yeah. Now stop whining.
Come on, hand them over!

516
00:40:54,922 --> 00:40:58,826
-Mierda! Oh...
-Shit... Sorry.

517
00:40:58,926 --> 00:41:01,028
Yeah, yeah. It's okay. It's just
water.

518
00:41:01,128 --> 00:41:07,034
Old hands. This heat
isn't helping either. Sorry.

519
00:41:07,467 --> 00:41:09,670
It's all good. Thanks.

520
00:41:10,671 --> 00:41:12,039
Tomorrow's the day, huh?

521
00:41:13,507 --> 00:41:18,646
[sighs] Yeah... Yeah, it's hard
to believe.

522
00:41:18,746 --> 00:41:21,082
Seems like we
just moved in yesterday.

523
00:41:21,682 --> 00:41:25,485
I just wish you weren't
selling to those investors.

524
00:41:25,586 --> 00:41:27,288
Yeah. Me too.

525
00:41:28,723 --> 00:41:34,462
It's a sacred thing, a house.
You leave a piece of you in it.

526
00:41:36,664 --> 00:41:41,569
I guess I never really look
at it that way.

527
00:41:41,669 --> 00:41:44,405
If I had it my way,
we wouldn't be moving.

528
00:41:47,908 --> 00:41:48,909

532

Yeah...

533

It's a hot one.

534
00:43:01,882 --> 00:43:02,883
How do I look?

535
00:43:04,385 --> 00:43:05,920
It always looked better on you.

536
00:43:06,587 --> 00:43:07,588
Smoke?

537
00:43:07,688 --> 00:43:11,058
There is no
smoking in the house.

538
00:43:12,226 --> 00:43:17,264
Well... it's not your house
anymore and they're
tearing it down anyways.

539
00:43:18,666 --> 00:43:19,667
Uh huh.

540
00:43:30,311 --> 00:43:33,047
So... You, uh, found my stuff.

541
00:43:34,949 --> 00:43:39,687
I don't know how I feel
about finding my work
in your donations pile.

542
00:43:41,255 --> 00:43:45,860
Oh... Yeah. Uh. You know
honestly, I haven't

543
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:50,998
seen a lot of that stuff
in ages. It's just kind of,
you know, things.

544
00:43:51,098 --> 00:43:53,701
Do you think I can
keep some of it?

545
00:43:55,669 --> 00:43:58,739
Yeah. Uh, I mean,
it's your artwork.

546
00:43:59,673 --> 00:44:01,510
I mean some of the other stuff.

547
00:44:04,678 --> 00:44:08,617
Yeah, sure. It was just stuff I
was going to throw away anyways.

548
00:44:08,716 --> 00:44:10,585
Like this tee?

549
00:44:10,684 --> 00:44:14,288
Fuck! I love that tee.

550
00:44:14,388 --> 00:44:16,423
You've tried to steal that
thing from me for years!

551
00:44:16,525 --> 00:44:18,593
Well... I'm the one
that got it for you.

552
00:44:18,692 --> 00:44:19,561
Mmhmm.

553
00:44:19,660 --> 00:44:21,563
I'll think about it.

554
00:44:21,662 --> 00:44:23,664
Well, I get what
I want eventually.

555
00:44:27,134 --> 00:44:29,136
Why do you want this shit
anyway?

556
00:44:30,037 --> 00:44:33,240
Mostly, they remind me of people
as they were at the time.

557
00:44:38,679 --> 00:44:43,552
You ever think about if we had
social media back then? Or like
actually used email?

558
00:44:43,884 --> 00:44:46,387
I think about that a lot.

559
00:44:46,887 --> 00:44:48,289
We could've met up again.

560
00:44:51,158 --> 00:44:55,763
Anyway. Uh, it must've
felt good to look back
at your work.

561
00:44:55,863 --> 00:44:59,200
Y'know. See
how much you've grown.
Changed.

562
00:44:59,300 --> 00:45:01,670
It's like seeing
an old friend.

563
00:45:01,769 --> 00:45:06,040
You remember all the love you
gave it, how much it meant
to you,

564
00:45:06,140 --> 00:45:11,378
who you were at the time. And
then you start wondering where
it all went wrong.

565
00:45:13,881 --> 00:45:19,787
Yeah. Sometimes I think the
fantasy is better than
the reality.

566
00:45:19,887 --> 00:45:24,458
Like, the idea of what could be
is better than what you get.

567
00:45:28,929 --> 00:45:30,931
I guess we'll never really know.

568
00:45:32,499 --> 00:45:36,671
Maybe it's exaggerated because
of the way we grew up. You
know, all the moving around.

569
00:45:37,137 --> 00:45:39,674
Being dragged around the
world at the whim of
your parent's career?

570
00:45:40,207 --> 00:45:43,578
All the sudden good-byes. Having
to box your life up again and
again.

571
00:45:43,678 --> 00:45:46,615
Then unpacking and sorting
through the emotional
wreckage afterwards.

572
00:45:46,847 --> 00:45:52,186
Yeah! Yeah. It forced
us to make these very intense
relationships so quickly.

573
00:45:52,286 --> 00:45:55,122
I don't know about you,
but I feel like
the older I get

574
00:45:55,222 --> 00:45:57,825
the fewer
of those meaningful
connections I make.

575
00:46:05,667 --> 00:46:09,837
You know there's these
lines of a Rosetti poem

576
00:46:09,937 --> 00:46:13,675
that I haven't been able
to shake since I read them.

577
00:46:16,176 --> 00:46:22,116
"If you shall remember
me after a while,
do not grieve,

578
00:46:22,216 --> 00:46:26,987
for if the darkness and
corruption leave,

579
00:46:27,087 --> 00:46:33,628
a vestige of the thoughts
once I had,

580
00:46:33,728 --> 00:46:37,865
better to smile and forget

581
00:46:37,965 --> 00:46:43,003
than to remember
and be sad..."
Or something like that.

582
00:46:44,673 --> 00:46:46,675
Squad goals. [laughs]

583
00:46:48,677 --> 00:46:49,678
Yeah.

584
00:46:52,046 --> 00:46:58,185
It's a good one tonight.
A farewell gift I guess.

585
00:47:00,988 --> 00:47:02,990
Something to remember her by.

586
00:47:46,768 --> 00:47:48,435
[Colin] What are you up to?

587
00:47:48,603 --> 00:47:51,673
Welcome to the theater of
forgotten dreams.

588
00:47:52,674 --> 00:47:55,109
-Okay, I'm gonna help you
with that because
-No! I got it.

589
00:47:55,209 --> 00:47:58,412
-you don't know
what you're doing. You don't-
-I remember! Yeah, I do.

590
00:47:58,946 --> 00:48:00,582
Look, I got it.

591
00:48:00,682 --> 00:48:02,684
Wow...

592
00:48:04,586 --> 00:48:05,919
Check this out.

593
00:48:06,186 --> 00:48:08,222
-Wait...
[Colin laughs]

594
00:48:08,322 --> 00:48:11,492
is this the same bottle
from the drama exchange
in Bangkok?

595
00:48:11,593 --> 00:48:13,127
Yeah. Yes it is.

596
00:48:13,227 --> 00:48:14,328
Whoa.

597
00:48:16,029 --> 00:48:17,364
Pick your poison.

598
00:48:17,464 --> 00:48:18,999
I'll go with the big one.

599
00:48:24,672 --> 00:48:27,575
Wow... who are those people?

612
00:49:17,224 --> 00:49:21,028
Oh it's Elin! Aw, I haven't
thought of her in ages.

613
00:49:21,128 --> 00:49:22,764
Yeah, did she end
up in Singapore?

614
00:49:23,130 --> 00:49:25,700
No, her family went back to
Stockholm.

615
00:49:26,433 --> 00:49:28,603
Apparently Elin
took her own life in '99.

616

No... Really?

617

handle being back

Are Lonely Planet guide books
simply a roadmap for invasion?

622

Why is the plural of moose not
meece when mice is to mouse?

623
00:50:13,848 --> 00:50:17,150
You know, those guide books
actually are an extension of
colonialism.

624
00:50:17,251 --> 00:50:20,588
Just like our
"international" schools.

625

Are you kidding?
You're kidding right?

626

Uh, no. Not really.

627
00:50:25,927 --> 00:50:30,264
Our academic life shaped a very
inclusive view of the world for
all of us.

628
00:50:30,364 --> 00:50:33,801
Sure, but think about it,
what makes an international
school "international"

629
00:50:33,902 --> 00:50:37,204
in the first place?
Representation?
That's a starting point.

630
00:50:37,304 --> 00:50:39,406
But then the students are
taught by English teachers,

631
00:50:39,507 --> 00:50:42,777
on an American system
celebrating western holidays.

632
00:50:42,877 --> 00:50:46,814
But that's not colonialism. They
didn't force it on the locals.

633
00:50:46,915 --> 00:50:51,184
But kids from all over the
world are forced to speak

634
00:50:51,285 --> 00:50:54,522
and communicate and learn
western culture and they get
sent back

635
00:50:54,622 --> 00:50:56,558
to their own countries
practically as foreigners.

636
00:50:56,658 --> 00:50:58,593
I mean think of all the
Japanese students who have to

637
00:50:58,693 --> 00:50:59,861
go back to a strict
social hierarchy.

638
00:50:59,961 --> 00:51:02,329
But the ideals were progressive!

639
00:51:02,830 --> 00:51:05,967
You know what? I'm gonna
jump back ashore,

-[Colin] Ouch!
-I'm just saying that

643
00:51:12,540 --> 00:51:16,209

lens, a bigger view of
how the world works.

644
00:51:16,310 --> 00:51:21,683
With an American filter.
Ok. Here's an example,
who's Madeleine Albright?

645
00:51:22,684 --> 00:51:25,587
-Come on.
-What are you--
What even is this game?

Madeleine Albright?

00:51:28,088 --> 00:51:32,459
Oh my god... Okay,
former US Secretary of State
under Clinton.

648
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:34,394
Okay, who was her counterpart
in China?

649
00:51:36,664 --> 00:51:39,232
-Come on. You can do it.
-Why?

Do you need to call someone?

652
00:51:42,670 --> 00:51:44,939
Do you know? Oh my god!
Okay, fine!

653
00:51:45,039 --> 00:51:47,575
I get your point!
I am a colonizer.

654
00:51:47,675 --> 00:51:49,944
No, I'm not saying you're a
colonizer. What I'm saying is,

655
00:51:50,044 --> 00:51:52,880
you know, that we are products
of a colonialist system

656
00:51:52,981 --> 00:51:57,919
and we can't change that, but,
yes, we can and we should
make things better.

657
00:51:58,019 --> 00:52:03,256
Okay, well, clearly not everyone
agrees. Just look at how many
people didn't vote in 2016.

658

-What? I mean...

a difference! Literally would
not have made a difference.

or not, we bridged differences

we believed in a better world.

I went out to get coffee.

897
01:19:03,678 --> 01:19:07,381
Hey, hey. I thought you said
we weren't going to do--

898
01:19:07,549 --> 01:19:09,850
I-- [sighs]

899
01:19:09,950 --> 01:19:13,120
What? What's go--
Hey, hey, hey.

900
01:19:13,220 --> 01:19:16,691
I thought you fucking left
without saying goodbye.

901
01:19:17,925 --> 01:19:20,327
I just went over to Reuben's to
drop my spare key off.

902
01:19:20,427 --> 01:19:22,664
I thought I lost you again.

903
01:19:26,601 --> 01:19:28,637
Lae...

904
01:19:30,137 --> 01:19:33,874
-This is stupid. I feel stupid.
-You're not stupid.

905
01:19:33,974 --> 01:19:38,145
You're not-- Look, I just went
over to Reuben's
to drop my key off.

906
01:19:38,245 --> 01:19:39,313
[Colin sighs]

907
01:19:45,419 --> 01:19:46,688
My ride is here.

908
01:19:51,825 --> 01:19:56,531
Hey... Where's my fucking
coffee?

909
01:20:00,267 --> 01:20:02,836
[laugh together]

910
01:20:10,679 --> 01:20:15,750
Hey, you know, I...

911
01:20:15,849 --> 01:20:21,656
I had this whole speech prepared
if I ever saw you again.

912
01:20:21,756 --> 01:20:25,593
Yeah, the feelings,
they just compound and then

913
01:20:25,694 --> 01:20:31,332
you don't know if that's how
you really ever felt or... feel.

914
01:20:33,367 --> 01:20:34,669
Tell me.

915
01:20:39,674 --> 01:20:42,076
That's the thing. Yep.

916
01:20:42,176 --> 01:20:47,582
Now you're in front of me,
I can't remember
a damn word. [laughs]

917
01:20:47,682 --> 01:20:52,587
The feelings though, they...
they remain.

918
01:20:59,627 --> 01:21:02,396
We don't have to go
just yet.

919
01:21:02,496 --> 01:21:05,633
We can stay a little
longer. No one has to know.

920
01:21:08,302 --> 01:21:11,673
Yeah. I didn't like the
way things ended last night.

921
01:21:13,874 --> 01:21:17,311
At the same time it was the best
night in a long time.

922
01:21:19,246 --> 01:21:24,184
Yeah. Kinda feel like it
was supposed to be like that.

923
01:21:24,686 --> 01:21:28,656
All we can do
is embrace the present.

924
01:21:28,757 --> 01:21:30,592
[sighs]

925
01:21:32,393 --> 01:21:35,563
You know that scar on my side?

926
01:21:36,430 --> 01:21:38,265
The bike accident?

927
01:21:38,867 --> 01:21:43,772
Yeah. I got it on the
worst night of my life.

928
01:21:44,873 --> 01:21:50,545
I was... blackout drunk.
I was going through a bunch
of unprocessed bullshit.

929
01:21:51,813 --> 01:21:56,651
Never quite fitting in.
Never quite wanting to stay put.

930
01:21:57,184 --> 01:22:03,490
Nothing new. We did our
fair share of drinking
back in the day too.

931
01:22:03,591 --> 01:22:07,227
Yeah, we did, but...

932
01:22:07,327 --> 01:22:10,297
that was just
for the sake of it.

933
01:22:10,397 --> 01:22:13,033
This was about being numb.

934
01:22:15,269 --> 01:22:18,873
I swerved my bike
into a parked car.

935
01:22:20,407 --> 01:22:23,511
-Shit...
-It's so silly.

936
01:22:25,847 --> 01:22:27,849
[sighs]

937
01:22:28,182 --> 01:22:30,685
I remember thinking
the car was moving.

938
01:22:39,928 --> 01:22:42,630
Colin... I wish I could've
been there for you.

939
01:22:45,199 --> 01:22:51,371
That's the thing.
I ran into Sofia's car.

940
01:22:51,472 --> 01:22:55,275
That's how we met.

941
01:22:55,375 --> 01:22:59,046
And suddenly, the worst night of
my life turned into the best.

942
01:22:59,146 --> 01:23:01,014
[sighs, scoffs]

943
01:23:01,114 --> 01:23:06,521
Yeah... I know...
It's fucked up.

944
01:23:06,688 --> 01:23:12,459
-The teenager in me is
screaming on the inside.
-No, don't do that.

945
01:23:14,729 --> 01:23:19,667
I'd give it all up to do it
over again. Do it differently.

946
01:23:22,537 --> 01:23:26,774
Yeah. I get that, but...

947
01:23:26,875 --> 01:23:30,110
that's why I have to go.

948
01:23:30,210 --> 01:23:32,914
Because I wouldn't
change it for the world.

949
01:23:36,016 --> 01:23:38,085
I just don't want it to end.

950
01:23:42,389 --> 01:23:44,792
You'll always have
the best part of me.

951
01:23:45,325 --> 01:23:46,393
Hm.

952
01:24:06,681 --> 01:24:09,617
-Okay?
-Okay.

953
01:24:09,717 --> 01:24:11,719
-Okay?
-Okay.

954
01:24:13,688 --> 01:24:14,689
Yeah... Okay...

955
01:24:21,696 --> 01:24:22,664
Okay.

956
01:24:25,098 --> 01:24:30,605
Yeah. Um, is it cool if
I just chill here for a bit?

957
01:24:30,838 --> 01:24:34,042
Yeah, yeah. Stay as long as you
need.

958
01:24:34,141 --> 01:24:39,112
Better yet, make an offer.
That way I don't have to sell
to investors.

959
01:24:39,212 --> 01:24:41,683
Maybe I will.

960
01:24:42,416 --> 01:24:46,688
There's a box of memories over
there and a plant.

961
01:24:46,788 --> 01:24:50,424
Consider it a housewarming gift.

962
01:24:58,032 --> 01:24:59,199
Hey.
