- [Mia] Hello.

- [Sam] Hi.

(Mia singing in Italian)

(stove clicking)

- Are you enjoying the view?

- Yeah.

Sorry, am I being an old creep?

- A little bit.

(kissing)

Good morning.

- Good morning or...

Afternoon?

- Yeah.

- What are you making like brunch or something?

- Uh...

We slept quite late so lunch.

- You woke up pretty late.

- [Mia] Well, I'm not sure if you even slept.

- I slept. - Did you?

- [Sam] Yeah.

Like...

An hour or two maybe.

- Okay. (Mia chuckles)

How was it last night?

- [Sam] Fun.

Good, I think.

Yeah, yeah, it was good.

You want, um...

Coffee?

- Uh, no.

- No?

- [Mia] I have oranges.

I went grocery today and I bought them.

So if you could make like...

Fresh juice. Juice?

How do you say juice in German?

- Saft. - Saft.

- [Sam] Yeah.

Um...

It's okay.

You don't have to speak German in the house.

Look, um–

- I was just curious.

- [Sam] What about you?

Got like a lazy day today?

- [Mia] For now yes, but I'm meeting the girls later.

- Oh. - Yeah, we're going for the...

Frida Kahlo expo, like the live exhibition.

- Yeah.

- You've heard of it?

- I did hear about it, yeah.

- Yeah.

So yeah, this is the plan.

After that, we were probably going to go for some drinks.

- [Sam] Uh-huh. - You know?

- Yeah, sounds nice. - Girls.

- Yeah.

You, what are you doing today?

- [Sam] I've...

You know, I think I'm gonna take...

a long bike ride...

Actually.

- Okay. - Feeling pretty foggy, and uh...

- You look foggy.

- Yeah, I just need to get out and clear my head.

And um...

I tried to get some work done 'cause

I wasn't sleeping much this morning

and didn't work out, so...

- [Mia] Okay.

(shaker whirring)

What about tomorrow?

Would you like to go for a hike?

- Um...

- You know, honestly,

I don't know if I'm gonna be up for it because

if I take this bike ride and I haven't slept,

I think tomorrow I'm gonna be sore and...

It's good to have a day of rest anyway.

- [Mia] Okay.

- What?

You're like looking at me like...

- I don't know, you're just different today.

- [Sam] How am I different today?

- [Mia] I don't know.

Just not being your usual self.

- Well, I haven't been out partying in a while.

And...

(scoffs)

Ah gosh.

- [Mia] What happened?

- [Sam] Spilled orange juice everywhere.

Look at this. - See?

This is what I'm talking about, you're just–

Well, I haven't partied in– - Not being yourself.

- A while. - There's some...

- I haven't been partying and–

- Wanna try? - I drank a bit more

than I usually do.

- Is it salty enough for you?

- Yeah, that'll do. - Yeah.

- If I need more, I'll put more on.

- What are you implying?

- That I can spice my own food.

- Mm-hmm.

I can spice your food.

I can spice many things for you.

- You spice a lot for me.

- [Mia] Can you get me a plate?

- [Sam] Here you go.

- [Mia] We might need another one 'cause...

Or actually...

(water running)

- [Mia] I have those vegan sausages.

- [Sam] Uh-huh.

- I tried them last night.

- [Sam] How are they?

- They're actually pretty good.

- [Sam] Okay. - Should I make some for you as well?

- I guess I'll try it.

- Yeah? - [Sam] Yeah.

- [Mia] It's not gonna be too boring for you?

- No.

- (mocking) You're vegan stuff.

- If I need to spice them a little more, I will.

- Okay. I mean we can skip breakfast?

- No, it's okay, I gotta eat.

Gotta...

- [Mia] Yes, yes, yes, hangover.

- Yeah. - Et cetera, et cetera.

- [Sam] I don't know if I could...

perform for you.

(Mia chuckles)

- I'm not that hard to please.

- [Sam] Yeah, but I would hate to disappoint you, so...

- Four for me, three for you, okay?

- Whatevers. I'll eat whatever's left, you know.

- Okay.

Can you bring those to the table?

- [Sam] Yes. - [Mia] And I can bring the juice.

(cutlery clinking)

- [Sam] Looks good.

Smells good.

- [Mia] I hope it tastes good.

- I'm sure it tastes good.

You're a good cook, you know?

(soft jazz music)

- Well...

Thank you.

Here you go. - Thank you, thank you.

- You're welcome.

- Ohh.

Hungry.

- Bon appetit.

- Mmm.

(Mia chuckles)

So um...

I got this ah...

Article that I've been trying to get done and...

- Okay. - It's just not, not moving at all.

- What is it about? - Mm, it's like...

A retrospective on eBooks.

- Okay.

- Like, where they've come in 20 years.

And um...

Yeah, it's ah...

Dull (laughs).

I'm trying to spice it up, but...

It's not really...

- Sounds boring to me. Sorry.

- Oh, when I was a kid, there was none of this.

Um, but...

You grew up with it, so...

- Shut up (laughing).

I'm not 12.

- Yeah, that would be really awkward.

(Mia laughs)

(soft jazz music)

- Yeah.

- It's not really my thing. Sounds a little bit...

Boring and...

Not creative.

No offense.

- There's no problem.

- Okay.

- You know it pays the bills.

So... Sometimes you have to...

Do things that are a little less glamorous.

But I like it because it's still writing, you know?

- Yeah, sure.

- These are not half bad.

- Come on, they are actually good.

- Like, they're edible.

They're better than the other ones.

So if you have to get vegan sausage again...

You should get these.

- Okay. - Mm-hmm.

- Glad you like it. - Yeah.

- Somewhat. - Mm.

- Mm.

Ah, so...

I saw the other day that this magazine...

Euro Travel.

Ah, they are recruiting people.

- Yeah.

- And I was thinking of applying for a job there.

- You should, it's a good magazine.

- Yeah. - Kind of high profile, like...

- Yeah, I know.

That's why I'm nervous (laughs).

So– - For photography,

like, are you sending them photos? Or–

- No, no, not really. - Writing?

- Writing. - Okay.

- Yeah, so the thing is, um...

- I need to send a sample or, like, an article about–

- Yeah. - Some kind of a trip that I did.

- And I wanted to check if you could help me with that?

I mean, I already have something I would do.

- Okay. - Would like to.

If you could just have a look?

And read and make it more...

- What's your deadline? - Professional.

- Uh, two weeks.

- Yeah, I can do that.

- Yeah? - I just–

You gotta, like, you don't have to ask me like this.

I will do this stuff for you.

- I know. - But you gotta email it to me.

Because if you just tell me,

it's gonna get lost.

- Yeah, I know. I know, I know.

- Especially today. But just send it.

Then I will turn it around for you.

- Thanks. - Mm-hmm.

Hey.

- Your hands are warm. - Yeah.

Look, I want...

I want you to do good things.

I'm really happy to hear that you...

- I mean, I am...

Doing good things.

- No, but like, to get more paid work.

This is important too.

- Yeah, I know.

- If you work for free forever,

then that's what people are going to value your work at.

- I'm not working for free,

I just don't want to be stuck in a job that I don't like.

Just for the money.

- You can always quit.

- Yeah.

- I don't know.

- I mean, after you start such things, its easy–

- Yeah. - To never quit

after many years and just concentrate on the money, so...

- Hey.

Are you talking about...

- No. - Someone close to you?

- No. (Both laughing)

- It's not just about the money, I like it.

Look– - It's not what you love though, I mean...

- Yeah.

- So– - Thanks for cooking.

- Sure, don't worry.

You're gonna do the dishes.

- Yeah. - I'm not that nice.

- Hey. - Yeah?

- You know...

I am...

Lucky to have...

someone as gorgeous as you in my life.

(Mia chuckles)

- Okay.

- And...

- Waking up next to me.

(Mia chuckles)

- And... - Thanks.

- Yeah.

- (chuckles) Thank you.

- Yeah.

- [Mia] So, I'll go get ready.

And I'll see you later, okay?

- Yeah.

- [Mia] Hey. - [Sam] Hi.

You look great today, you know?

- Thanks.

What did you guys take yesterday?

Like, you're being such a creep. - Oh god.

- You know, I–sorry

Just...

Look, I'm gonna go, okay. Um...

- Okay.

- [Sam] Should I pick up dinner on the way back?

- No, we're going for drinks afterwards.

I told you.

We'll probably eat there.

Should I get you something?

- I'll be fine. - Okay.

- Have fun. And I want to hear about it.

And say hi to Becca for me.

(footsteps)

- Why Becca specifically?

- You said you would be getting together with friends

and so I assumed you would see Becca.

(sighs)

- Mia.

(slaps) (Mia grunts)

- [Sam] Oh, what the fuck, Mia?

(Sam panting)

Mia!

Mia!

(shoe thuds)

(footsteps)

- Mia.

It was an accident.

We were partying.

We drank.

Frank brought ecstasy and I took some.

I let my impulses get the better of me.

You said I should be more impulsive.

(Mia laughs)

- What do you expect?

Me to say congratulations?

Well done, tap on the back.

Want a cup of tea?

- No, I... I wanna fix this.

It didn't mean anything, Mia.

It was just sex.

That's all.

I love you.

I love only you.

Mia.

Come on, let's talk this through like rational adults.

We can...

- Rational adults?

Tell me, Sam.

What is rational and adult about it?

The fact that you are 34 years old

and you go out partying, getting drugs with your friends

and then you fucked my friend.

I'm gonna go for a walk.

(group chattering)

- [Becca] Sorry I'm late. - [Simone] Hi!

Aw.

- [Becca] How are you? - [Simone] I'm good.

It's great seeing you.

- Becca.

How are you?

- [Becca] Hi, I'm sorry.

(mwah)

- I think this is the first time since I've met you

that you are the late one.

- True, true.

Why? - Yeah, I'm sorry guys.

I just partied a little bit too hard.

- [Anastasia] Oh.

Did this involve maybe some, you know, attractive men?

(Anastasia laughs)

- No, not at all. - [Simone] No, you met someone.

- No, I didn't.

- [Simone] A little bit guilty, no?

Looks like she had fun. - Yeah.

- What are you guys doing? - She has that glow to her.

(laughing)

- Thank you. - Welcome.

- Oh cool, you ordered already?

- [Simone] Yeah. - Orange.

- [Anastasia] Of course, we know you love your tea.

(chuckles)

- [Simone] Also we cannot be too late going to this exhibition since–

- What exhibition again?

- [Simone and Becca] Frida Kahlo.

- The girl with eyebrow.

- Mm. - Mm.

- Yeah. - Yes (chuckles)

Or one of the biggest artists from the–

- So where's Mia?

- [Anastasia] Oh, she texted, she won't make it.

- Why?

- I don't know, I asked her, but she hasn't responded yet.

- [Simone] You know why.

- [Anastasia] No, why?

- She's busy with the number one.

- You mean– - With Sam.

- [Anastasia] It's her boyfriend, supposed to be her number one.

- [Simone] Um, I feel like she's supposed

to not forget about her friends.

- [Anastasia] She hasn't forgotten about us.

She's mourning.

- She's mourning? - So you know what?

Um, I had this woman in the workshop and...

She was really not comfortable with her body.

She gained on a little bit weight.

So what I did, I was sending her to vagina workshop.

- A vagina workshop? - Yeah.

- [Simone] What is that is that?

- [Becca] Don't give that look.

- [Simone] It would be good for you to go to a vagina workshop.

- Why would I go to a vagina workshop?

- To open up a bit.

- Yeah, they have a throne there and everybody can expose their vaginas, so...

(laughs) - It brings everybody together and...

- [Anastasia] And how does this help? - Empowerment.

- A hundred percent we are going, you need this.

- A hundred percent I'm meeting you guys after.

Maybe we should get Mia to go?

- We should get Mia to go.

- That empowerment is exactly what she needs.

- [Simone] Yes, she needs to get back out, get a job.

Because she lost it because of Sam.

- [Anastasia] No, she didn't lose her job because of Sam.

Imagine being in a different country as an au pair

and then they kicked you out. You're homeless–

- Because of Sam! - And jobless.

- She would've been kicked out and without a job if it wasn't for Sam.

- [Anastasia] I think it was a huge misunderstanding.

And now she's seeking refuge... [dialogue fades out]

- [Simone] What do you mean misunderstanding? They know the rules.

He's older and he should, if he's taking care of her,

he should not make her break rules.

- [Anastasia] He didn't make her break rules.

It was a misunderstanding.

And now they're happy. They're trying to take care–

- Happy? - Of the situation.

[high-pitched hum] - She's forgetting her friends, she's not here.

- [Anastasia] She's not, she's not forgetting.

- She's not doing shit to get her life back on track.

- Have you never been in love?

- I've been in love. - And gotten all cozy

with your significant other?

- [Simone] I've been in love and I didn't forget my friends.

(traffic humming)

[pen scratching]

[door unlocking]

- I wrote something.

I can read it.

Sometimes it's easier to get my point across in writing.

You know this about me.

We're both writers, we need time for our thoughts and to...

Work on them.

The most important thing,

mistakes are human.

We, we all make errors

and we all mess up.

Both of us have, I made a list of

all of the times we've done each other wrong.

And one of our strengths is that

we have always managed to get past them.

So I know that we can again.

The second thing, I know it was wrong.

And I'm sorry.

I said it, and somehow for me the ink on the page is

more real, more permanent. Speech is ephemeral.

Sukhov writes, "Text is the true memory of our soul."

The third...

- I'm going out.

Tonight.

- Okay.

Where?

- You know, go out, um...

Party, drugs, drinks...

Have sex.

But don't worry.

Just sex, not love.

I love only you.

Sam, let go of me.

Sam, let go of me.

Sam. - I'm not letting go.

- Sam, Sam. Sam! - We're gonna solve this.

We're going to solve this. - Let go of me, let go of me, Sam!

- No. - What are you doing, you're being crazy.

- You're the crazy one. - You're acting insane.

- You are the crazy one.

Mia, Mia, you're a child.

- Ah! No!

- Just calm down!

- Let go of me, Sam! - Calm down!

- Let go of me! - No!

- Ah! - No!

(Mia screams)

- Let me, Sam!

(Mia grunts) (body thuds)

(Mia cries)

(brooding music)

(Mia breathing heavily)

- I do so much for you.

- Get out of here, Sam.

- [Sam] No.

This is my house.

- Yeah, and I'm very aware of it

as you very kindly remind me every fucking day.

- You are exaggerating everything right now.

You're blowing it out of proportion.

- I'm not blowing anything out of proportion, Sam.

You're going crazy, you're going crazy.

You fucked my friend.

You fucked my friend, you piece of shit!

- And you are being hysterical about it!

- [Mia] I'm being hysterical?

- We can be– - Oh, really?

- Yeah. - I'm being hysterical?

- [Sam] Yeah, we can be mature about this

or we can explode at each other.

Like what you're doing– - Oh really?

- Right now, yeah. - Yeah.

How can we be mature about it? Huh?

- Well, take a breath, calm down.

- [Mia] Oh fuck yourself and your breath.

- No, this is your problem.

You don't know how to calm down.

- I don't know how to calm down.

Then show me how to calm down!

- Okay. - Since you're so calm!

- Yeah, yeah.

How about just breathe for a moment.

Stop putting on your shit.

Stop thinking you're gonna go out and pick up some sort of guy like–

- Oh, yeah, you get fucked, I cannot. Nice.

I will, okay?

I'll fuck someone really hot.

(Mia breathing heavily)

I hate you, Sam.

- Then you get everything you deserve after that.

- Yes, yeah. I hope I do.

Because apparently you don't give what I deserve.

I hate you. - You know what. Fuck you.

- Fuck you.

- [Sam] I'm not your fucking father.

I shouldn't be fucking taking care of you.

- Oh, you.

Don't bring my fucking father into it!

You're crazy, Sam!

You're crazy!

And I can't take your bullshit anymore!

(breathing heavily)

- Hey.

I got really scared when you texted me.

I swear my heart broke.

We were on drugs and...

(sighs) Really high

so it was a big mistake.

You need to believe me, you're my friend.

I would– - Yeah.

- [Becca] Never again do anything like this to you again.

- Oh, you're never gonna do it again?

- It was a big mistake. - I appreciate.

Yeah, yeah.

I appreciate if you don't fuck my boyfriend again.

- It was a mistake.

- Yeah.

- I would do anything to make it up to you again.

- That's exactly what Sam said.

It was big mistake.

But you know what the problem is, Becca?

I don't fucking care.

- [Becca] What can I do to make it up to you?

I– - You can fuck off, Becca.

That's all you can do.

You wanna make it up? Just fuck off.

- I'm trying here.

- [Mia] Nice.

You still have drugs?

Do you still have drugs?

(Becca sighs)

- What are you going to do?

Please.

- You can go now.

- Yeah, I know.

I know.

But we did something stupid.

- So you regret sleeping with me?
