- My parents are taking me up to Sydney

next week to watch them.

- But you're walking here,
you're not walking home,

you're walking to the party.

- How many of those have you had?

- Lost count.

- Oh God, I hope you can
cope with the hangover.

- It's better.
- What, reheated rice?

Exactly, it's great,

it's the best possible thing for it.

By the end of the day, you're overpaying.

What? That's not even true.

Well, they
can't cancel everything.

- I'm so sorry, but please just
agree with everything I say.

I need your help please, he's a monster.

Yeah, and
another thing about, hi.

- Hi.
- Kerri agrees with me.

- I do.
- You agree

about the day-old rice?

- Yes, about the rice.

How are you agreeing with her?

What, so you can't eat rice
if it's over a day old?

- Not if you reheat it, right?

- Yes, no, if you reheat it,

there's like bacteria and stuff.

- That's what I've been saying.

- And what, that bacteria isn't there,

if you don't reheat it?

- No, but it gets like really
dangerous when you reheat it.

- There's like studies.
- Yeah, yeah.

- Like if you research it,

it's what I've been trying to say.

- Look, I eat day-old rice all the time,

it's never been a problem before.

- You know what I mean?
- Yeah, 100%,

Actually, my uncle, oh, it's
quite traumatic actually.

I, my uncle, he um, he
had day-old Chinese food

and he was in the
hospital for like a week.

It was really hard on the family.

It's a, it's a dangerous, dangerous thing.

- Hm, yeah, I'm sure it was.

- I don't think you'll want
to trivialize her trauma.

- I'm not trivializing her trauma.

My heart goes out, it
really does, it bleeds.

But there's never been a
problem with day-old rice

and the story about your
uncle doesn't mean any,

what, you just happen to find
the one person at a party

that corroborates the story?
- I'm sorry,

when you look at all the
articles, it's research based.

How is putting
rice through a microwave

that heats it with radiation any better?

- Because it breeds it
while it's in there,

the longer it's in there, the more-

- Right, it's the moisture,
it collects the moisture.

- Moisture, yeah.

- And that's where the
bacteria comes through.

- When you reheat it?
- It's common sense.

- Mm-hm.
- Moisture with heat?

Yes.

- Without it, okay.
- Yes.

I think you need
to read a few studies.

- I have read all the
studies, just Google it.

- Two against one, sorry.

- It was getting a bit
hot in there, wasn't it?

- Hm, yeah.

- Speaking of, thanks for saving me.

Yeah, Wade was being,

a monster.

- Yeah, no, it's fine,
I know how Wade can be.

- Yeah, yeah.

- But I do kind of agree with him.

- No.

- Yeah.

- You can't be serious.

- Yeah.

- I'm right and I know I'm right.

- But I have had like
takeaway Chinese food

all the time, like the morning after.

- But what about your uncle?
That's a prime example.

- I don't have an uncle.

- What do you mean you
don't have an uncle?

You just told some whole
story about your uncle.

I lied.

- What?

- Yeah.

- Whoa, you're a good liar.

- Thank you.

- I should watch out for that one.

- Yeah, you'd better watch out.

- Maybe you should become a politician.

That's really funny.

- Thank you.
- I think I should.

- Well, maybe I should
become a standup comedian.

- I think you would be good.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

I become a politician, you
become a standup comedian.

My first law as politician would be-

- To make everyone hire me
to do their standup comedy.

- Yes, how did you know?

- Yes, we're on the same wavelength.

- We're connected, you and I.

- We're connected.

But see, none of that
could happen if you die

from food poisoning from heating up rice.

- Wow, I thought you kind of
jumped the gun a little bit.

- No, no, I'm going circling back,

'cause I'm not over this rice thing.

I'm not over it.

Wade dared Leo to snort
soy sauce, so stupid,

and of course Leo did it,

but then Wade wouldn't pay Leo,

because he claimed it was
cultural appropriation,

even though he's the one who dared Leo.

- Oh, God.
- So stupid.

- Sounds like Wade.

- Um, this is me.

- Oh.

- Yeah, catching the bus home, so.

- That's okay, I'll wait with you.

- Oh no, you don't have to do that.

- No, it's all good, I'm
just up the road, so.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah, takes me like
two minutes to walk home.

I'll wait, I'll wait.

- Thank you, that's so nice.

- All good.

- What are you doing tomorrow?

- I'm working tomorrow.

- Oh, nice, where do you work?

- Do you know that bakery on Main Street?

It's like a pink and
green sort of aesthetic.

- Oh yeah, yeah, I feel
like I've walked past that

100 times, but I've never been in.

- You should, it's really good.

I'll give you a staff discount.

- Thank you.

- No, but we sell such good stuff, um,

pretty much everything you
can chuck in an oven, we sell.

- Nice.

- So do you like pies?

- Oh, oh, I miss meat pies.
I'm stuck on veggie pies now.

- Oh, you're vegetarian?

- Yeah.

- Oh, God.

Voluntarily?

Yeah.

- But right now, I could
really go with a meat pie.

Some tomato sauce.

- Oh yeah, oh, you're making me hungry.

We also sell some mousses.

- Oh, mooses?

- Yeah, like chocolate mousse.

- Huh.
- Not the animal.

- Like with like a cake
shaped like a moose?

A chocolate mousse, yum.

- Yeah, a chocolate mousse.

And also brownies.

I think the brownies are my favorite.

- Oh, I love brownies.
- Yeah.

- I love brownies when they're warmed up,

you know, ice cream.
- Strawberries, ooh, yeah.

- Divine.

- So good.

- Do you work with nice people?

- Um, yeah, yeah, um...

- That didn't sound very confident.

- I'm still relatively new, so um,

you know, yeah, my coworkers,
there's one in particular

I just kind of like, we don't
really talk during our shift.

- That's not very fun.

- Yeah, but like, yeah, we just
go there to work and...

- Hm.
- Go home.

- That's fair, I guess.

- She's a bit of a hard arse sometimes.

What are you doing tomorrow?

- Um, it's going to be
a nice day tomorrow.

I thought maybe I'll go to
the lake, get some vitamin D.

- Hm.

- Yeah, you should come after work.

- Yeah. What time are you gonna be there?

- What time do you finish work?

- Well, I can, I can shift things around.

- Well, I was planning to
be there around 12, so.

- I could do that.
- You could?

- Yeah, yeah.

- That'd be good.

- Yeah, I'll see you there.

- Yeah.

I could bring like a
volleyball up to the lake.

Yeah.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, we could do that.

- I'm still thinking about the mousse.

Chocolate mousse.

We should start selling chocolate mousse.

- Yeah.
- Chocolate mice?

Chocolate mousses?

- Chocolate mice?

What is the plural of moose?

- Moose.
- Mice, or like fish?

- I think it's just moose.

- Yeah.

- Ruby.

Hi.

How you going?

- Good.

- Nice.

I really like your hair today.

- Same as it is every day.

- It's looking especially shiny today.

- Can I help you, Kerri?

- Ah, yes.

Um, I was wondering if
I could leave early?

- You wanna leave now?

- Yeah, like now.

- I'm the only other one here.

- I know, but it's like dead.

- Okay and what if in 20 minutes,

there's a rush of 20 people in here?

Well then, you like always,

will smash it out of the park.

I can't do everything.

- Well, yes, you can, you're amazing.

- What's so important anyway?
Why do you need to leave?

- I've got plans.

- Plans?
- Yes.

- Well, they must be very important plans.

- Yeah, they are important plans.

- Was it a wedding?

- I am meeting someone.

- You've only been here for two hours.

Okay, I've gotta work until six.

- Well then, you can work
without me annoying you.

Well, I've only got like an hour left.

Please.
- An hour left?

- It won't happen again.

I will,

I will cover the next five of your shifts.

- Okay and um,

every weekend.

- Yep.

- For a month.

- Thank you so much, thank you.

Hi.

- Hey, you made it.

- Yes, sorry I'm late.

I got caught up at work.

- Is it all good?

- Yeah, yeah, it was
actually quite dead today.

But you know, boss wanting
to keep me, it's annoying.

- Yeah, yeah, that's fair.

- What are you reading?

- Oh, "Catcher in the Rye." You read it?

- Yes.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, I have.

- Did you like it?
- Yeah, it was really good,

really interesting read.

- Yeah.

What's it about?

- Well, you're the one reading it.

I don't wanna spoil anything for you.

No, but I wanna
see what you took from it.

- Um, oh, I took a lot
of things, you know,

a lot of the, the themes.

Well, what's the
basic plot in your words?

- Um, "Catcher in the,"
"The Catcher in the Rye..."

"The Catcher in the Rye."
- Yeah.

- Is about, um,

an American footballer.

- Mm-hm.

- Named Gerard.

Yes, I'm gonna love Gerard.

- Yeah, yeah, I know.

Who has to leave his
career as a football player

to work on his family's rye farm,

because they're going bankrupt.

- Wow.
- Yeah, yeah.

It's, it's a, it's a tragic story,

'cause he was like the best
football player in the world.

- Yeah, oh, what a shame.
- Yeah.

- Exactly.

You see, you get it.

- Yeah, I do, yeah.

Yeah, I'm actually
really smart with things.

- Amazing. No, I actually
think you'd really like it.

It's about like this disillusioned teen,

he's in a mental institution.

Ah, what are you
trying to say?

- No, I think you'd like
the themes and everything.

I don't think you should
be in a mental institution,

but I actually think I
like your version more.

- Really? Yeah.
- I think you should write it,

publish it, so I can read it.

- I will do that, as soon as I get home,

I will start writing just, just for you.

- Great.

I'll put this away, sorry.

- You're all good.

How you feeling?

- Good, yeah. How are you?

- Not hungover?

- Oh yeah, no, I, I woke
up, had some electrolytes,

soaking in the sun, I'm all good.

- And I guess, do you usually
read when you're hungover

or after a big night?

- Well, I usually read
whenever I have free time, so.

It's so crazy.

- Don't you?

- No, actually I read all the time.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

What kind of books or,

what do you read?

- Ah, I read street signs.

- Oh yeah, of course,

I mean, you need to
know where you're going.

Yeah, I don't wanna get lost.

- Yeah.

- I read ingredients on food packets.

- Right, I mean, there can
be some nasty preservatives

in there.
- Yes.

- You've gotta keep an eye out.

Yeah, oh, I read the dictionary

when I don't know how to spell something.

- Oh, riveting.
- Yeah, I know,

such an interesting read.

- Yeah, you're really extending
your vocabulary, it's great.

- I am, indubitably.

- Yeah, yeah.

- What else do I read?

And I read subtitles when
the house is too loud

and I can't turn it up anymore.

- Yeah, yeah, of course.
- And read it.

- Of course.
- Yeah,

I'm actually well read.

- An avid reader.
- Yeah.

- Yeah, love it.

But I do think you
would really enjoy this.

I can give it to you once I'm done.

- Yeah, okay, yeah, that sounds good.

- And then we can talk
about it afterwards,

start like a little book club.

- Oh, my God.
- Yes.

Yeah, we could do that.

- But make sure you give
it back to me afterwards,

because I've given away so
many books expecting them back,

- but I never get them back.
- So rude.

- And I love this book, it's
my second time reading it.

- You've read it twice?

Yeah.

- But why?

- Well, you find out new things

the second time you're reading it,

things you might've
skipped over last time.

And you know, it's so well written

and it's such a good book, it's a classic,

that it's just like,

I like to have a refresher
every now and then.

- Right.

Yeah.

- Right, okay.

You've never read a book twice?

I don't think I've read
a book once.

- Oh, okay.

That's fair.

I love playing with sand, I
feel like it's so satisfying.

- Hm.

Yeah, this sand is really soft.

- Hm.

Hey, if you were an element,

what element do you think you would be?

- What does that mean?

- Sorry, that came really randomly,

but I was just thinking sand
is part of earth, so like-

- Right.
- You know,

like the elements like
earth, fire, water, air.

- Right, um...

How do I, how do I tell what I am?

- Well, it's just like your
energy and like your essence

is like connected to an element, you know?

- Right and is it only in the four,

not like the other ones,
like hydrogen and helium and-

- No, no, no, no, no, it's
just earth, fire, water, air.

- Right, um, well, how do I know?

Like what are the, what
are the traits of them?

- Well, it's not really
like personality traits,

like, it's not like a personality test.

But I guess like, like
earth is like stubborn,

but also quite calm,

fire is like passionate and fierce,

air is quite like easy breezy,
maybe a bit flighty actually.

But then water is like also
calm, but kind of tumultuous,

'cause it's like the tides, you know.

- Hm.

What do you think I am?

- Well,

I feel like you would know better.

Hm.

- Because you know yourself better.

But I feel like your
vibe is giving like fire.

- Hm, are you saying I'm hot?

- I mean, it doesn't actually correlate

to like physical attributes,
but yeah, sure, let's say that.

- I think you are-
- Oh.

- You're a water.

- I think I'm water too.
- Oh really?

- Yeah, maybe you're more in tune

with the elements than you thought.

- Maybe I am.

Well, speaking of water.

- Oh no, no.
- Yes, yes, yes.

- No, no, no, it's too cold, no.

You guys all right?

Hi.

How are you?

- Good, how are you?

Good. Cold.

You guys look
like you're having fun?

- Yeah.

- Hi.
- Anyone hungover?

- Hm, Ava she'd like, she
was so drunk at eight p.m.,

I don't even know how you
get that drunk so quickly.

Such a lightweight, she spilled
a drink all over your bed.

- Yeah.
- Oh.

- I feel bad for ditching her then.

- Yeah, why did you guys leave so early?

- Oh, um...

We just, you know.

Yeah.

- I wanted to walk her home, so yeah.

- Hm.
- Okay.

- Like you can talk anyway.
Mr. Throw Up at three a.m.

and I had to clean it up.

It was disgusting.

- It's not like you've
never done that before.

- Oh, yeah, when?
- Throw up all the time.

Oh, when did I ask, when
did I ask, when did I ask?

- This is why I only have
two drinks, that's it's,

I don’t exceed two drinks.

Yeah, but like, otherwise it gets messy.

Also, I think I'm allergic to alcohol, so.

- Allergic?

- Yeah, I had this
really bad reaction once,

like I got really sick.

- What happened?
- What happened?

Well, I like.

- How?
- How could you be allergic

to alcohol?
- I don't know,

like I finished off like a bottle of wine

when I was 12-
- What?

- And I was so sick, so it was just like-

- Sorry?
- How did you get that?

- You were 12, you were drinking at 12?

- Where did you even get the alcohol?

- Yeah, exactly.
- I wasn't banned,

like is that not normal?

- No.
- I don't know,

it was maybe your parents

and you're not meant to touch that.

- Well, yeah, but anyway,
it had a reaction.

I don't think it sits well
with me, so only two drinks.

And honestly, hearing this,

I feel like you guys
could learn from me, hm.

Actually, yeah,

the sickest I've ever been,

I was like eight drinks
down, I was so cross faded

and I was hitting this bong

and I just threw up
everywhere, it was so gross.

- Ugh!
- Yeah, never again.

You know who
can't deal with his alcohol?

- Who?
- Wade.

Last night at the party.
- No, what happened?

- Mm-hm, yeah, he put out his party trick.

His party trick?

- Yeah, he like, he gets
us to pick three words,

three random words, and he
writes a song out of it.

- Yeah, was it any good?
- So what were they?

- Dog,

elevator and um,

astronaut.

- No, I think it was astronaut,
elevator and pineapple

and, and it went like, it was like, um-

- Do you need a beat?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It was better than that.

It wasn't that bad, you're
not doing it any justice.

- It was pretty bad.
- Hm.

Of course, you would think that.

- I'm so glad I wasn't there,
'cause as soon as I drink,

I tell everyone I can do
my party trick and I just-

- Ooh!
- Yeah, no.

- What's your party trick?

- No, it's so embarrassing.

- You can't say you have a
party trick then not show it.

What's your party trick?

- Um...
- Go on, what is it?

- Oh, um, I can do the worm.

Show us, show us.

- Right now, go for it.
- Oh no, oh!

Okay, okay, it's hard on sand, so, okay.

- Oh, my gosh, I can't
believe she's gonna do it.

I can't believe she's doing it.

I don't know, I
think that was pretty good.

- Yeah, now I've done it,

now I don't have to do
it again for you guys.

Are you sure
you're still not drunk?

- Probably.

- Speaking of, what
drinks do you guys have?

- I've got vodka in this.
- Nice.

- Same.
- Yum.

You want some?

- It's canceled?

- No, not tonight.
- No, it's not?

- Not at all.
- Oh, okay, okay.

You know, after that, "My dairy."

- 'Cause?
- Yeah, yeah.

- That was so funny when Jeremy said that.

You be Jezza.

- Oh, Jezza?
- Yeah.

- What?
- So funny.

- Classic Jezza.
- Jezza.

He's not the
sharpest in, you know.

- No.
- Putting it nicely.

Yeah, no, you'll get kick out of this.

We were in drama class

and he was trying to be really profound

and he was like, "Oh,"
he wanted to say like,

"Let me put that in my diary."

But he said, "Let me
put that in my dairy."

Jezza, I swear,

he's honestly, he's not the brightest.

- No.
- No, no.

- Oh, he's just, he actually,

he auditioned for our band once.

- Oh, yeah.
- Oh, I remember that.

- That was the most painful
thing to listen to, like.

- I was second hand embarrassment.

- No, I was just watching
it and I was embarrassed.

- Yeah.

- Like he's a nice guy, but, hm.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- A bit hopeless.

- Oh, so funny.

- I'm feeling a little hungry,
I might get some pizza.

So, um.
- Yum.

Got the munchies, huh?

- Yeah, don't expose me like that.

Do you guys want anything?

- Yes, a vegetarian with no diary.

- Cool, just text it to me.

Hey.

- Hi.
- I'll come with.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

Yeah, you'll need some
help with the boxes.

- Okay.

- Cool.

Let's go.

We'll be back.

All right, don't be too long.

I'm hungry.

Hawaiian pizza is probably

the most disgusting pizza on earth.

- It is not.
- It is actually disgusting.

It's literally just hot
fruit on a pizza with meat.

No, no, I feel
like the only reason

Hawaiian pizza gets a bad rap

is because it's not a
traditional Italian pizza.

- Well, yeah, it's Hawaiian.

- It's not Hawaiian.

- Okay, how is a Hawaiian
pizza not Hawaiian?

- Well, it's just called Hawaiian,

'cause it's like tropical
with the pineapple,

but it was actually created in Canada

by a Greek immigrant in 1962,
so definitely not Hawaiian.

- That makes absolutely no sense.

- No, it does because he had a pizza shop

and he was just eating like a ham pizza,

and he was like, "What if
I try pineapple with this?"

And he started selling it not
knowing it would be a thing,

it would be a big hit.

But then like everyone
started ordering it,

so he started like importing,
like canned pineapple,

and that's like, you
know, where it comes from.

It's pretty cool.

- How do you know that though?

- Well, I researched it, I was curious.

You researched pizza?

- Well, yeah.
- Who does that?

I do. I don't know.

- God, you're actually-
- Aren't you ever curious

about a topic like that?

- No, you're actually
probably the biggest nerd

I have ever heard of.

- Oh, I am not. I'm sure
plenty of people do the same.

- You researched pizza, that's
such a nerdy thing to do.

- Yeah, because everyone
wants some Hawaiian pizza,

so it's like, why, where
does that come from?

There you are.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Didn't wanna wait inside?

- No, it's too hot.

- It's hot.
- The oven's hot.

- Yeah.

- Just blaring.

- That's fair.

Do you often sit on the street?

- No, it's kind of, it's comfy.

- Yeah, okay. Did you decide on a pizza?

- Ah, yeah, I did actually.
- Yeah?

- There are too many options though.

- Yeah.
- I don't know which one to-

- Yeah, this actually has so many options,

like it doesn't just have
the basics, like it's a lot.

- Yeah, I'm too indecisive,
so it took me a while.

- Yeah, big decision, yeah.

Shouldn't be too long and we
can get back to the group.

- Yeah, yeah, get back to the group.

It's gonna be fun.

- Yeah, they're cool, aren't they?

- Yeah, no, it's good to see them.

- Yeah.

- How long have you guys been friends for?

- Oh, ages, years and years, yeah.

- Oh really?
- Yeah.

Like I sometimes feel like
I'm a a third sibling.

- Oh really?

- Yeah.

- I can't believe Daisy
and Leo don't fight more.

- Oh, they do.
- As siblings.

- They definitely do.

Did you get a drink?

- No. Oh, I should have gotten a drink.

- I was going to, but then
I thought I'd save my money.

- Yeah, they're too expensive now.

- Yeah.

- $5.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Maybe when we get back,

we could play some games
with the others and?

- Yeah, that'd be fun.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Sorry, I feel like, um...

Like there's been like a mood shift?

- With me?

- Yeah.

- No, no, no, no, no, no.

I just, I wasn't expecting
to see Daisy and Leo today.

- Right, yeah.
- So that was just a bit of a-

- Well, we had already kind
of like planned to catch up,

so um, but sorry, I should've warned you.

- Oh, today?
- Yeah.

- Oh right. No, sorry,
I'm, I'm the intruder then.

- No, oh, my God, no, no, no, not at all.

No, I just didn't wanna
blow them off, you know?

- Yeah, right.

- But no, I'm happy to be
spending time with you.

It was like I'm not even with them.

- Thanks.

So do you know if either
Daisy and Leo are,

you know, seeing anyone at the moment,

if they've got their eyes on anyone?

- Oh, um,

why?

- Just wondering, just wondering.

- Yeah, no, they're not.

- No?
- Seeing anyone.

- Cool.

- Would you like me to,

say something to them or?

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no,

I wasn't asking for myself, God, no.

- Oh.

- No, um,

just curious.

- Great.

- Oh, I wonder if,

have you ever hooked
up with either of them?

'Cause you guys have
been friends for so long?

- Oh my God!

I, I said that we were like siblings.

- Oh yeah, right, okay.

- No, never.
- Okay.

- Never.
- Right.

Ugh!

- Whoa!

- No, that'd be weird.

- Yeah, right.

Right.

Yeah, no, I like those guys, um.

Yeah, just didn't think I'd see
them today, but that's okay.

I like them, I wanted to see them.

- Should I have like
pre-warned or something?

- No, no, that's fine, sorry.

- No, why are you sorry?

- I don't know.

- This leaf is getting mutilated.

- Sorry, sorry.

I fiddle a lot.

- Yeah?

- Helps me focus.

- Are you focusing on your pizza or not?

- Yeah, God.

Here, let me give you
something to fiddle with.

- Oh.
- Here's a leaf.

- Thanks.

It's a bit dirty.

Okay.

God, you would not be good camping.

- Ah, I don't know.

- So what'd you get?

- Guess.

If I were a pizza, what would I be?

- Ooh, um...

Probably a margarita.

- Yeah, I think that's
a good thing, isn't it?

Everyone loves a margarita.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is a good thing.

- Yeah, no, what's that?

- No, well, you know,

a little basic.

Basic.

Wow.
- Yeah, sorry.

- That's hit hard.

Am I wrong
though, is it a margarita?

Well, yeah.

Sorry. What did you get?

- I love my spice, so I
actually got a peri peri.

- I love spice as well.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, yeah.

- Well, do you wanna try some?

- Yeah.

- Broaden your horizons.

- No, I love spice, I would,
yeah, I would so get this.

Whoo, thank you.

- You're welcome.

- Mm!
- How is it?

Good?

- Mm-hm.

- Have I changed your mind on spice?

- Hm, so good.

- Yeah?

- Really good.
- Not struggling?

'Cause I know it is quite spicy.

- No, no, if anything,
honestly, I wish it was spicier,

it's not, not even spicy at all.

- Really? Oh, okay.

- Yeah.

Shut up, just don't.

Ugh! I'm so full.

- Mm-hm.

- It was good though.

- Yeah, it was really good.

- Yeah, if it wasn't cold though.

- Yeah, I know, right?
What took you guys so long?

- Oh, sorry, my bad.

- We had to take a detour, thanks to Beth.

- I was parched from the
walk, so I needed some water.

Don't laugh.

- You were not parched.

- I was.

- She said she could
handle my spicy pizza,

but she clearly could not,

'cause we had to go get some water.

- No, it wasn't because of the spice,

I was genuinely, it was a
long walk, it's a hot day.

- Sounds like weak genetics to me.

- Oh!

- And then we also had to
go get slushies for you.

- Wow, water and a slushy?

- I just wanted a sweet
treat after the walk.

- Okay.
- Is that a crime, guys?

- Where, where is it then?

- I drank it.

- What'd you get?

- Like that blue raspberry one.

- Oh, so your tongue would be blue then?

- Yeah, it is.

Hm, I wonder
if your tongue's blue.

Hm.

- She didn't get a slushy one.
- I didn't get one.

- Oh.

- What?

Well, yeah, no,
of course your tongue

wouldn't be blue.

Why would it be blue?
- Yeah.

- Hm, I wonder why.

- The questions of the world.

Why might your tongue be blue?

Silly.
- Silly.

Really silly.

Why would it be blue?
- I don't know.

Yes.

- Not sure.
- Hm.

- I think I saw a soccer ball back there.

Do you guys wanna play?

- Yeah, yeah, I'm down.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

- Sure, yeah.

- Winners!

- Whoo!
- Winners!

- I thought guys were
meant to be good at soccer.

- I'm a musician, not a meat head.

- That's such a stereotype.

- That was fun.

- That was good.
- Yeah.

- We should probably hit the road.

- Yeah.
- What, sore loser?

- No, we have band practice.

- Hm, sure, sure.
- Right.

- Well, you guys could come if you want.

- Oh, I would, thank you,

but I've gotta go pick up
some books from someone, so.

- Can you do that another day?

- Oh, I wish, but such a good deal,

so if I don't go to their
house and pick them up,

someone else will.
- Right.

- And I don't wanna miss out on that,

so, you know, gotta run.

- Well, do you want some company?

I'm sure the books are super
heavy and I'm super strong.

- Yeah, I'd love that.

- Yeah?
- We could come too,

look at Daisy's arms,
look at these big muscles.

- I think we should probably go,

I think Wade and Florence
are waiting for us.

- Oh yeah, all right, cool.

- Yeah.
- Sure.

All right.
- Cool.

- See you guys.
- Good to see you.

- Bye.
- Bye.

- Leo.
- What?

- Smooth.

- He wants it.
- Shut up.

- Hey, should we get some books?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

So what books are you getting?

Oh, I'm just picking
up like a whole collection,

so there'll be like some old ones,

some new ones, some I've already read.

But yeah, someone's just
selling all their books,

so I'll pick them up.

Well, why are you getting books,

if you've already read them?

Can't you just go to a library?

- Well, the thing with libraries
is I like to like highlight

and like write on my books,

'cause I just feel like more
activated when I do that.

And like, you know, I
love making little notes

and like circling bits.

So I can't do that with library books.

- Right, sorry, I didn't know
I was walking with a nerd.

Ah, stop.

- How do you have time to do
all of that, like, plus school?

- Well, it's kind of easy,
if you read one book a week,

by the end of the year,
you've read 52 books.

- Well, I think if I was to make that,

it would be like one page a week.

- Well, that's fair, that's fair.

So I'd get like
half a book done in a year.

Yeah, I mean, that's all right.

You all right?

- Um...

Er, no.

What's, what's going on?

- My phone's not in here.

- Oh, um, that's okay, we can find it.

Did you drop it somewhere?

- Well, I, I didn't feel it drop,

but it must've, it must've dropped.

What if it's like lying on
the street broken somewhere?

- It's okay, I'll call Daisy and Leo,

they will probably know where it is.

- Do you have their numbers?

- Yeah, I do. I've got Daisy's.

Give me a sec, I'll call them
to see if they've seen it.

- Oh, I'm such an idiot.
- You're not an idiot.

No, I can't believe I dropped it.

I can't, I can't go
anywhere without my phone.

- It's okay, we'll find it.

Oh, my God, I don't
know where it would be, like,

and then if it is at the lake,

like somebody would've
picked it up by now.

- No one would've picked it up.

- We're in broad daylight,
like a phone on the ground,

somebody's gonna take it.
- It's a nice area,

no one would've picked
it up, and if they did,

they would've called, which
means no one has picked it up.

- But who would they have called?

Like my phone is like locked

and like they can't call my phone,

they don't know who else to call.

- We will find it. So we
know it's not at the station.

- But also, I would've felt
it like fall out of my bag?

- No, we were having
fun, we were with people.

- Oh God, I can't believe
I did this, it's so stupid.

Like I never lose anything.
- It's not stupid.

It's not stupid, people
lose things all the time.

I'm an expert at losing things,
so I will help you find it.

- Okay, well, where is it, oh, expert?

- I, I will help you look for it.

- Okay.

- It's probably okay.
- I can't believe this.

I just don't know where it
is, we've looked everywhere.

Hm, I don't know.

Maybe someone has it,
maybe Daisy has it, just...

No, I've already called her.

She and Leo haven't seen it.

Well, Leo could be lying.

I can see him playing a prank on me.

He does seem
like the pranking type.

However, they both know
how stressed you are,

so I don't think he's that mean.

- Yeah, maybe not.

Maybe it's like gained sentience
and it's coming to get me.

It's sick of me using and abusing it.

- Well, have you been abusing your phone?

- Well, I throw it around a bit,

but just because I know
it's not gonna break.

- Wow, I'm talking to a phone abuser.

Maybe that's where all the
remotes and phones are hiding.

- Oh, do you think they're
starting an uprising?

- Yeah, hm, they're just after you.

Oh no, please save me.

- And your phone's the leader.

- Oh, okay, I feel like I
can take credit for that,

because I feel like I
would've raised a leader.

'Cause you abused it so bad?

- No, no, just because I have

that like leader quality in me.

I feel accomplished by
that, even though it's-

- Proud mama moment?

- Yeah, even though it's coming
to attack me, I feel proud.

- Maybe I have it, you
haven't asked me yet.

- Oh, I've been walking
around all day with the enemy.

- Hm, you have.

- Well, maybe I'll just
have to search you for it.

- Maybe.

- Oh, I can't believe it's not in there.

- We will find it.

- But that was like the
last place we were in,

it was like, if it's
not there, where is it?

We've looked everywhere else.

- Um, ooh, we should hire a psychic,

that will be fun, they'll know.

- A psychic, like a scam?

Have you tried
the Find my Phone thing?

- What's that?

- It's like this website
where you enter in

your phone number and it
tells you where your phone is.

Well, how does
it know where my phone is?

- I don't know, satellites
and it like pings

and it shows your phone
where it is on a map.

- Right, right, I don't
have my computer though.

That's okay, you can use mine.

- Did you bring it with you?

Yes, it's in my
pocket right now, actually.

I have a, a shrinking
serum that I put on it.

- Funny.

- Yeah, I thought it was funny.

No, but you can just come to mine,

it's like five minutes down the road.

No, no, thank
you, but that's too much.

You've really helped so much.

No, I would literally
let anyone use my laptop,

I would let like some dude
from the street use it.

It's fine.

- That's really not very street smart.

- Well, no, but it's worked for me so far.

- Yeah.
- I'm not dead, it's fine.

But yeah, no, it's fine,
I'm just down the road.

- You sure?
- Yeah.

We'll just put in your
details and we'll find it.

It's no trouble.
- Yeah?

- Yeah, come on, let's go.
- Thank you, thank you.

No, you're fine.

Okay, so I'm still confused.

How does the satellite
know where my phone is?

I don't know, it
uses like, I don't know, waves.

- Waves?
- I don't know,

like sound waves or something like that.

- It's gone, like, it's
not showing up anywhere.

- Did it not work?

- No, I don't know, like,

like it's nowhere, like it's...

- Well, maybe it's dead.

- It's not dead, because I
charge my phone to full percent

before I go out anywhere,
like it can't be dead.

- Well-
- Maybe someone took it,

maybe someone smashed it.

Maybe it's on the bottom of the river.

- Well, where do you
remember having it last?

If I remembered
where I had it last,

I wouldn't be in this situation.

- Okay, did you have it backed up?

'Cause you could just buy a new one.

- No, I don't have it backed up,

I don't have enough storage
to have it backed up

and I can't just buy a new one,

because not everyone
can just buy a new phone

every time they lose one.

- Well, I'm sure there's like people

selling them cheap nowadays,

like you might be able to
find a secondhand one, or, um-

- Maybe.

I'm sorry, I'm just, I'm sorry,

I know I shouldn't be like annoyed at you.

It's just like my whole
life is on that phone,

it's not backed up anywhere.

- No, I know, I know, it's frustrating.

We'll find it though,
I'm sure we'll find it.

Just relax. You're welcome to use mine.

- Thank you.

- And you can use my
laptop whenever you want.

We can maybe try again later,

maybe it's just a connection
issue or something.

- Yeah, yeah, maybe.

Thank you, I really appreciate your help.

- It's okay, well, maybe we could like,

you could probably get another one

on insurance or something or, um.

Yeah, I'm sure people
are selling them cheap.

- Yeah.
- Like, I think I saw one

the other day going for like 700.

- 700 for a used phone? What a bargain.

- I mean, they usually
go for a lot more new.

- I know, I know, like relatively,

it is a good price for a phone.

It just, doesn't it seem excessive to you?

- Yeah, I mean, I guess, but like,

I mean, at least you'll have a phone.

Did you want me to help shop for phones?

Yeah, maybe I should
just like buy a flip phone.

- Why a flip phone?

- Like, I can make a statement,
like make it my aesthetic.

Like she's a mysterious girl,

like she has no social media,

like you can't reach her,
she just has a flip phone.

- We should get you some glasses

and then I think it'll work.

Yeah, yeah, I
could be like a hipster.

- I think it'll really suit you.

Yeah, thanks.

- I know how to get really
good deals, not to brag, but.

- Yeah, I think I might honestly

just have to hold off for now.

I really will be the
mysterious, hard to reach girl,

because I, I can't get
a new phone right now.

- Why?

- Just not in my budget, I guess.

- Right.
- Hm.

- Right, sorry.

- No, all good.
- I didn't wanna pry.

- No, no, you are so fine.

- You sure you're okay?

- Yeah, no, yeah, I'm fine.

Sorry, I'm bringing the mood down.

- No, no, no, no, you're
not, don't worry, no.

- Sorry, this is so stupid.

This is so stupid, I shouldn't,

oh, I shouldn't be
getting upset about this.

It's just a phone, it's
just a phone, right?

- No, but it had all of your stuff on it.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

- Well, to cheer you up,

I will take you somewhere really special.

Where will you take me?

- Europe.

- To Europe?

- Yes.

- Really?

- Yes, I will.

- Okay, what's on the
list, what are we doing?

- Um, we are going

to the Eiffel Tower.

- Ah, beautiful.

- Paris, the most romantic
city in the world.

- Ooh, ooh la la!

- Then we can go to England.

- Okay.
- We can go see Big Ben.

- Yes.

- Big clock thing.

- Yes, we can see like the London Bridge

that is falling down.

- Yeah.
- Falling down.

- Kind of wanna meet Prince Harry.

Prince Harry, hm,
you're a royalist, interesting.

- I just find their lives fascinating.

Hm, I'd really love
to do like an expose on them.

Yeah.

How cool. I can
film it on my flip phone.

- Well, I can't take
you to Europe right now,

but we could probably.
- Oh, wow.

How about instead of Europe,
we just go to a cafe?

You can shout me a coffee.

- Okay, but we need to make
it a fancy French cafe.

- Okay, okay, I'm down for that.

Eat some frog legs.

- Maybe not frog legs, I was
more thinking, it's so French,

you can't pronounce the name.

- Hm, yeah.

But I'm down.

- Ah, frog legs, that sounds great.

I'll buy you a really nice coffee.

- Thank you.

- Do you drink coffee?

- I do, I do, I'm a mocha girl.

Oh, what is that exclamation for?

- Sorry, sorry, I know.

- People say it's like,
it's like a transition

between hot chocolate and coffee

and it's like more
childish, but I disagree.

I think it's combining a
coffee and a sweet treat

all in one and that,
my two favorite things.

- I think it's definitely a gateway drink.

- Fine, well, I'll tell you
in a few years if that's true.

- Okay, well, I just
go, I'm really boring,

I just go for a normal latte.

- That's fair.
- Yeah.

- That's fair, keep it
simple, straightforward.

- Yeah, no sugar, full cream milk.

- Yeah.
- Just the basics.

- I like it.

- Yeah and I like it when they do

a little picture on the top.

- Yeah.
- That's really cute.

- Yeah, I like a little
smiley face on mine.

- I like the little heart.

I'm a little bit of a romantic,

so I like the, the heart on it.

- Good to know.

- Great, I'm looking forward to it.

If you wanted, I'm happy
if you wanna use my phone.

- Seriously?
- And my laptop, yeah.

- Really?
- And you can come over

whenever you like.

- Oh, thank you.
- Because I'm always here.

- Thank you.
- I'm barely at school.

- Actually, in that case,
I will take you up on that.

I've been meaning to take
some like overseas calls

and I just haven't been able
to do it on like, my mileage.

So like that's great, and with this house,

like a great place to have a party.

- Oh, my God.
- So I think I might

just like invite everyone over.

You're chill with that, right?

Oh, I might change my mind.

- No, you can't, you've said it.

Spoke too soon.

- You put it out in the universe.

- Should I expect like
a million dollar bill

to come in the mail?

Yeah, yeah, I
mean, you offered it,

so can't complain.
- Yeah, it is my fault.

Okay, I'll take that.

- What else can you give me
while we're on the topic?

Your house is so chill.

Like, it's just like
such like a nice vibe.

- Ugh, I kind of think it's really boring.

- No, what, are you kidding
me? This is so nice.

- I think you might get sick
of it though, it's boring.

- No, like, I mean, look at your walls,

I could like look at this forever,

like you have so many posters.

- Yeah, I do, I kind of collect them.

Hm.

- I think the posters are like a bit much.

- No, they're so cool. I love them.

- I'd like to see your house.

- Yeah, maybe sometime.

- I wanna see your room.
- Hm.

- I wanna see how you decorate it.

- It's not that great, no,
I'll show you sometime,

just maybe not right now.

- Why?
- Oh, it's just like,

my house is like a bit chaotic, you know,

like most houses are.

- Yeah, yeah, we had a really
like loud dog a few years ago

and it was just so intense

and that's why we don't have any pets.

It's just too much.

- Yeah, that's fair, that's fair, yeah.

No, I don't have any pets at the moment.

I do really want a dog or a cat, but yeah.

I feel like here's a lot more peaceful,

so might be better just to chill here.

- Is everything okay at home?

- Yeah, yeah, no, it's fine,
it's fine, just like a lot,

and I don't know, drama, I guess,

but like, every house
has drama so it's fine.

- Well, what's going on?

- Um, nothing much, it's just like,

I feel like there's a lot
of people in the house.

Like, I'm used to like
just my mum and I there,

but my dad's there now
as well, which is chill.

It's just like a lot, you know?

- Did your dad not live
with you or something?

- No, like, he like lives with us,

it's just like, he was always at work,

so like, we never really
saw him, but like,

I don't know.

- So is he just taking a break from work?

- Yeah, taking a break,
you could say that.

That is a nice way to say it.

He got fired.

- Right.

- So yeah, he is taking an
indefinite break from that job.

- Is he, is he looking for another one?

Like, has he got another
one lined up or something?

- Yeah, no, he is not
lined up, he's looking,

but apparently, the job
market's really tough out there,

he says, so.
- Right.

- It might be a while.

Yeah, but no, it's chill, it's fine.

It's, you know, every family goes through

a little bump every now and then.

- Right, well, if you ever need a break,

you can come here.
- Thank you, thanks,

I might have to take you up on that.

- I like this movie
poster, what's it about?

- Oh yeah, no, I love that movie.

It's written by this
female writer-director

named Anne Collins and she's
just, oh, it's just so pretty.

- Yeah?
- It's such a nice movie.

It's one of those movies,
it just makes you feel good.

- Yeah, what's it about?

- Well, it's a bit of a romance movie.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, it's about this
girl who goes to New York.

So she lives in London

and she goes to New
York for like a holiday

and then she meets someone and
then they just fall in love.

- Nice.
- Yeah.

- What are the main characters like?

- Well, this is Brigitta,
she's the main character.

So she's from London,
then she goes to New York.

Nice.

- And then at a cafe in New York,

she meets this woman named Helen

and then it goes from there, fall in love.

- Nice.

Cool, cool.
- Yeah.

- So are those like the
kind of movies you like?

- Yeah, I love romances, I don't know,

I guess I'm just drawn to romances,

'cause it makes me forget
that I'm single, I guess.

I can live vicariously
through the characters.

- That's fair.

- But yeah, I'm a sucker for a romance.

- What kind of romance movies do you like?

Like do you like any sub genre of them or?

- Um...

Like, what do you mean by that?

- Like, you know, there's
like, I don't know,

I guess like, like what, indie

or there's like queer,

like "Brigitta," or-

- Right.

Or there's like
blockbuster, like what's-

- I think I do like
more of the indie ones.

Yeah, and I don't think I have a,

I don't think I have a preference.

Like that one up there
is another queer one.

But yeah, I just think love is love.

So either way,

it still makes me feel happy, I guess.

I don't know, I don't
have a preference, it's...

- Okay.
- Yeah.

What movies are you into?

- Um, I guess I like romances as well,

I don't know, I like
sci-fi and like fantasy,

I don't know, I find
them really entertaining.

But I don't actually
really watch many movies,

I'm more into reading, so.

What is that face for?

- Oh, I can't believe you're a reader.

- You're not a reader?

No, of course not.

- Why not?

- Well, you just always
have to be on to read,

you have to be like thinking.

- Yeah, but it's like, it's
like exercise for your mind.

- But I don't wanna exercise,
I don't wanna exercise my mind

or any part of my body for that matter.

My mind is already exercised.

- Is it though, 'cause you're not reading?

So rude.

- No, but it's also just like,
so much more entertaining,

because like, you can
fill up your imagination

and like with a movie, it's
like just what you see.

But with a book, like you can tailor it

to like your own imagination,
like there's no limits.

It's like a whole world in
your mind, it's much better.

- I just don't think you've seen,

you haven't seen the right movies.

You haven't read the right books.

- Hm, no, I have read the right books

and they're all slow and hard to read and-

- Well, they're
not the right books.

- I don't wanna, I don't
want to have to do a chore

to get entertained, I just wanna-

- I'm disappointed.

- I just, you're disappointed?

- I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

- Oh God, I just wanna flick on a movie

and just like, turn off

and forget about my dull
single life for a minute.

- I guess.

Like, I do like movies,

but it's just like, books
are just like, I don't know,

you can just delve way further into them

and like, there's like
all this like, subtext

and like, you just like pick up on like

what the author's like
weaving into it and like,

and then they can be like serious.

And like a movie is like one hour,

like a book can like expand
like, like series of books.

And then like each book has like,

like if you put like a
book into a, a movie,

you have to cut so much out
of it to fit in the timeframe.

- Okay, okay, how about...

How about I show you

some good movies and
we have a movie night?

Yeah.

- And then,

we'll do like a book club or something.

- Yeah, deal, I wanna
watch "Brigitta" first,

I've heard rave reviews.

Oh, by who?

- Oh, just someone who
doesn't really like books,

but I'll forgive them,

because they apparently
have great taste in movies.

They sound really
smart and really pretty.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Yeah.
- Hm.

Okay, let's do that.

- Yeah,

it's a plan.

It's not just like the
tigers and the clowns,

like there's like full on like acrobats

and like people who breathe fire.

Like, it's a whole-
- My God.

- Like production, it's
really actually amazing.

- I think I've always wanted to go,

I've just never had the opportunity.

- You should go, it's in town right now.

- No, I can't.

- Why not?

- Well, I don't wanna go by myself.

I just have no one to go with.

- You couldn't take anyone?

- No, no, no one to go with.

- Hm, so there's no
like crushes at school,

you can ask out or anything?

- No, no, God no, not at our school.

Fair.

- Do you actually know,
do you know Kyle Jeffries?

- Yeah, I know Kyle. He's a sweetheart.

I think he's just a bit misunderstood.

Oh.

- No, he is. Do you know he has pet rats?

Ew!

- No, I mean, I thought ew at first too,

but like, it's like basically
the same as like a pet dog

or a pet cat.
- No, it's not.

- It is because he loves them the same

and like, I think that's
sweet, I think it's sweet.

- Oh, but they're gross and small

and rats spread diseases.

- No, these are like bred rats,

like they're not street rats.

- I just imagined like a piece
of bread that's like a rat.

- No.

- Bread rats, sorry.
- Okay.

On the topic of Kyle, um,

um, well,

I actually think he tried to
ask me out a few weeks ago.

- Mm-hm.

- It was actually so embarrassing.

I kept on trying to like let him down easy

and like not lead him on.

- No.

- 'Cause I haven't been leading him on.

- How'd you let him down?

- Well, I was kind of deflecting

all of his weird advancements.

- Classic.

- Yeah, it's like, no,
sorry dude, not my type.

- Why not?

- Ah, yeah,

just not my type, not my
type of person to be with.

- Well,

what is your type?

- I think I want someone
who makes me feel safe.

- Whoa!

- Oh, my gosh!

- Feel safe?

- No.

- Sorry, go on, keep going.

- And someone who makes me feel wanted.

- Nice.

- Yeah.

Sorry.

- What?

- Oh, I just got really
nervous all of a sudden.

- Wait, why?

It's nothing, nothing.

- No, why?

- Well, it's literally nothing, it's fine.

I...

I just think you're really pretty.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- I think you're really pretty.

- You have nice eyes.

- Thank you.

- Um, I like this pillow.

- Yeah, yeah, it's um...

- Soft.

- Soft, it is, it's a,
it's a pillow, it's a-

- It is a pillow.

- Soft pillow.

Oh God, sorry, you make me so nervous.

- Why?

- I just think I really like you.

Oh!

- Is that your phone?

- Oh, my God, it's been found.

- Where is it?
- Oh, my God, it's back on.

It's on High Street.

What are we gonna do when we get there,

because like what if they
don't wanna give it back?

- Well, they're gonna have
to, otherwise they're gonna

have to deal with me
and I'll like kick them.

- Okay, but as a backup plan,

like should we have the
police on speed dial or?

- Babe, it's three numbers,

I don't think we need it on speed dial.

- Okay.

I just don't think we
should confront them,

'cause like what if they wanna fight us?

- Well then, we'll just
deal with that then.

- I think we should just
go home, call the police,

let them deal with it.

- It's fine.

I'll call it now.

Okay, let's go.

Hello.

- Oi, oi, gimme the
phone, gimme the phone!

- What, whoa, hello!
- Just gimme the phone!

- Don't touch me!

- Georgie, hey. Oh
wait, this is my friend.

Okay, it's okay, just relax.

I am so sorry.

Thank you.

- So I just thought that I
would give you a call, you know,

'cause I mean, I haven't
heard from you in a while,

and I called your number
and this man picked up

and I was like, "Who's this?"

Anyway, it turns out this
man was walking his dog,

it was this, oh, you know those
like tiny little white dogs?

I don't know what they're called,

but it was, you know how every white dog

is like small white dogs,
they're really crusty?

It was just really quite,
especially like around the mouth,

and this one had like
little teeth poking out.

Awful, just a disgusting looking dog.

Anyway, so he was walking
that dog around by the lake

and he found your phone,
so I was like saying,

"As I am Beth's best friend,

I may as well be the one to return it."

So I organized to meet up with
him, I came here with him,

I got him a coffee to say
thank you, "You're welcome."

And yeah, now we're here, yeah.

- Thank you so much,
like you have no idea,

like I am eternally grateful.

I thought I lost like my whole life.

No, I've got you.

- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

So what were you doing by the lake?

- Oh.
- Snorkeling.

Yep, we were trying to find
heaps of stuff in the water.

We found a shopping trolley,
found tons of dead bodies.

It was great.

- Um, we were hanging
out with Daisy and Leo.

- Cool.

- But Daisy organized it and
it was like super last minute

that um, yeah, we just kind of happened

to be there at the same time.

- Yeah, right, and you were invited too?

- Yeah.
- Well,

we were hanging out, so.

Didn't realize
you guys were friends.

- Yeah.
- Oh yeah, we um,

we kind of got to talking
last night at Daisy's party

and decided to hang out.

- Yeah, spent pretty much
the whole day together.

Got pizza, that was really funny.

- Yeah, she called me basic
for getting a margarita.

- And then you had my really spicy pizza,

even though you can't take spice.

- I was fine.

- You were not fine.

- I was fine, ssh!

Let me get you another coffee,

to say thanks, least I can do.

Oh, thank you.

- Um,

almond cappuccino.

- Yes.
- Yes, yes.

- You know me so well.
- Of course.

Anything for you?

- Ah, just a latte, thanks.

- Regular milk?

- Yeah, that's fine.

- Okay.

- She's so generous, hey?

- Who, Beth?

Beth.

- Yeah.

You don't think so?

- No, yeah, she is.

- Yeah.

I'm really sorry to,

that you have to be in the
middle of this, you know.

Things are a little bit complicated

between the two of us right now.

- Okay, I don't actually know
what you're talking about.

She actually didn't mention
you before this, so.

Yeah, sweetie,
I'm not surprised.

Right.

- Yeah, Beth's just been

in a little bit of a weird head space.

I think she's going through a lot.

- That's fine.

Beth is just,
we've known each other

for a really long time and
she's just the kind of person,

she just struggles to set
boundaries with people.

- Right.

- You know when you're like at a party

and you're hanging out

and you're hitting it off with somebody

and then next day, you're
just getting text message

after text message and it's like,

"Microwave rice,"

the text that you sent Beth.

Yeah, she told me about that.

I think,

sometimes if you don't get
a response from someone,

that's usually, there's usually a reason.

- Do you know why?

- It's not really my place to say.

You know, Beth's the kind of person that,

she just has such a big
heart and she's super caring,

but she doesn't really know how to,

I guess, let people down.

- So she gets her friends to do it?

- That's not what I said.

- Um,

look, um, I'm not feeling too good.

Yeah, been in the sun all day,

feeling a bit lightheaded, so.

- Yeah, do you want me to get
you some water or something?

- No, no,

just the heat.

So apologize to Beth for me.

Yeah, will do.

Yeah, I'm sorry.
- Hm.

I hope you feel better.

- Thanks. Lovely to meet you.

- Yeah, you too, I'll see you at school.

- Yeah.
- See you.

See you.

- Hey.

- Hi, what are you guys doing here?

Waiting for a bus.

I assumed.

- Band practice was canceled.

Apparently, Wade and Florence

can't keep their hands off each other.

- Yeah.
- Hm.

Oh, has Beth found her phone?

- Um, long story.

- Hey, where'd Kerri go?
- Hey.

She left.

- She left?

- Yeah.

- Why?

- I don't know, she
seemed pretty exhausted.

Yeah, just a bit...

I think it's just been a
really big day, you know,

when you're hanging out
with the same person

for a really long time

and you just kind of need
your own space for a bit.

- Well, maybe I'll call
her, see what's going on.

I wouldn't.

- Why not?

- I don't know, I think she
just wants some time alone.

And she said that to you?

- I mean, she kind of made
it clear when she just left.

- Oh.

Okay.
- Yeah.

Sorry.

- No, no, it's fine.

We can hang out.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- Oh, my God, we totally should.

- Yes, no, it'll be fun.
- Yes.

And I need to repay
you for getting my phone back.

- No, seriously, you've
already got me a coffee.

That's plenty.

It's really nice to see you, Beth.

- It's nice to see you too.

Yeah, it's been too long.

Yeah, way too long.

- Um, she pretty much explained
to me that Beth was too nice

to tell me that she didn't
wanna hang out with me.

- I don't know, she can be a bit...

- Yeah.
- Hm.

- I don't know.
- It doesn't surprise me.

- Thanks.

- No, Beth had a friend a while back,

Maddie Mitchell, do you know her?

No, well,

Georgie had made up a whole bunch of stuff

and lied to Maddie's face,

it caused her to cry, it was horrible.

But she made it all up, she was a liar,

so don't believe anything she says.

- She was pretty darn convincing though.

She...

She kept on mentioning this text

that I sent Beth this morning

and she kind of just said that

the reason Beth didn't respond

was because she was
trying to let me down easy

and, you know, tell me that
she didn't wanna talk to me.

- Hm.

Georgie found the phone, right?

- Hm.

- She probably read the messages herself.

- Bus is here.

- Look, from what I've seen,
Beth really likes you, okay.

- Beth, you would absolutely
love this lake house,

I am telling you, it is so you.

- Yeah?
- One of the bedrooms

is so you.

It's got this view over the lake.

- Oh, beautiful.

- Oh, and you can watch
the sunset as well.

- Oh, that sounds so nice.
- I was thinking,

you should definitely come up.

We'll have a little
sleepover and I'll make some-

- Kerri.
- Hi.

- Oh, I thought you went home.

- Yeah, I did.

- Were you feeling unwell or?

- Yeah, yeah, um, I had a
headache from the, the sun, so.

Oh, okay.

- So this is a picture of
Stevie in front of the house.

Stevie's my dog, by the way.

- Can you just shut up for a second?

- Okay.

- Beth, do you remember that message

I sent you this morning?

I know it's the really stupid
one about the the rice.

- About the rice?
- Yeah.

- Right. What about it?

- You didn't respond to it.

- Oh, oh, I'm sorry, yeah.

Yeah, everything I texted
just sounded stupid,

so I just kind of left it.

Why?

- I was just wondering.

Hm.

You all good?

Yeah.

- You seem a bit quiet.

- Very long day.

- Yeah.

I feel like I should
apologize for Georgie,

I know she can come
across as a bit intense.

- Hm, just a bit.

- She's just like really protective,

we've been through a lot together.

- She seemed a little jealous.

- No, she just worries. I
don't know, she means well.

Did you still wanna pick
up the books with me?

- Totally.

I've actually been thinking
about buying my own books.

I was gonna go to the, the bookshop.

- The bookshop?
- Yep, bookstore thingy,

one of those things,

and yeah and I was gonna buy them new

to like, you know, feed
into the, you know,

book buying economy.

- Oh, my protege's all grown up.

- I was gonna get um,

Dickinson.

- Okay.

- And the one about the whale.

- "Moby Dick?"

- Yes.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Amazing.

- And then I was gonna get the,

who's that lady who writes books?

- There's a few women who write books.

- She's old, well, no, she's
not old, she's dead now.

But she's like, she was
like from olden times.

Um, she like writes like
feminist, Jane Austen.

- Jane Austen?
- Jane Austen.

- That is a wonderful
description of Jane Austen.

That should be her biography,

"Old woman who writes
books who's dead now."

- That's the important part.
- Yeah.

- Yes, yeah, you've inspired me.

- Well, maybe we could read together.

That sounds like a plan.

- Go to the lake.

- But I think it'll be
better if you read to me.

Yeah?

- I'm still trying to get the hang

of the whole reading thing.

- I can do that.
- Yeah.

- And practice my public speaking voice.

- That would be good,
it's like an audio book.

- Yeah.
- Or a podcast.

- Exactly, mm-hm.
- My own traveling podcast.

- Should I do ASMR?

You put on a David Attenborough voice.

- Can you do it now?

Show me how it goes.

- Once upon a time,

there was a girl.

That's all you're getting for now.

- It kind of sounds like
you're about to start singing.

Oh God, no.

- I can't do this.

- No, you're doing so
well, just keep going.

- No, I'm like reading one line

and then forgetting what I just read

and I don't know what's going on.

- No, but I feel like you'll
really love this book.

Just wait until it gets to the murder

and then you'll be hooked.
- Ah!

- It's a murder mystery,

of course there's gonna be a murder.

- Yeah, well-
- I didn't say

who's getting murdered.

- I didn't know there
was gonna be a murder.

I knew it was a crime, but
didn't know it already happened.

- Literally, there's murder in the title.

- Okay.

- Trust me, you'll like it.

- I just don't know what
half these words mean.

- Like what,

"doctor?"

- I know what that means,
I am familiar with doctors.

- What word are you struggling with?

- "Reticent."

- Oh, so that's "reticent."
- "Reticent."

- It means like, not really
being willing to open up

about your emotions and feelings,

kind of like the shy,
quiet one of the group.

- Right, so reticent.
- Reticent.

- Reticent, sorry.
- Yeah.

- Reticent.
- You got it.

- Okay and that's like,
you don't wanna, okay.

- It's like withholding how you feel.

Right, okay, so
like not talking about stuff.

Okay, okay.
- Yeah, pretty much.

- Cool.
- You got this.

I believe in you.
- Okay, thank you.

Yeah, okay, I'm done.

- What do you mean?

- I tried, I failed, but at least I tried.

- Well, you did try, but I think,

like I genuinely think
this book is the one

that will hook you into reading.

I can, I think you will love it.

- I just, I can't focus on it.

- Why not? There's like no
distractions in this room.

If you can't focus here,
where can you focus?

- Well, nowhere, that's
kind of the point of ADHD.

- I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry.

- No.
- No, that was-

- You're fine, no.

- No, that was really insensitive
of me, I'm, I'm sorry.

- No, it was-
- I didn't realize.

- No, that's fine, it was funny.

No, I got diagnosed when I was like,

I think year nine, I think.

Yeah, so a while ago, a few years ago.

Yeah.

- And, and what is it like for
you like with struggles or?

- Yeah, yeah, there are struggles.

But I guess I sometimes
like thinking of it

as my superpower.

Like, yes, it's hard to focus on things.

Yes, it comes with like anxiety

and insecurities and stuff like that.

But you know, there are also good things.

Like a lot of people with ADHD
have really intense hobbies

and they're amazing at it.

And they're really good at
picking things up quickly

and learning things quickly.

- Cool.

- Yeah.

- Well, yeah, honestly, I can,

I feel like I can relate
to your struggles.

'cause um, I was actually recently,

I was recently diagnosed
with an iron deficiency.

I'm joking, I'm joking.

I'm not trying to take
away from your struggles.

That was a joke, but maybe
it didn't play well, sorry.

- That was a very funny joke, no.

- No, I was just being insensitive.

I'm sorry, I don't,
you're making me nervous.

- No, no, it's fine.

But even if I didn't have ADHD,

I don't think I would
be able to focus anyway.

- Why not?

- Because you're so goddamn pretty.

Don't.

Stop.

- Sorry.

- Says you, like, come on.

- Okay, I'll try one more time.

- Thank you, you've got this.

Honestly, you can just skip ahead a bit.

- Ah, no, I want the full experience.

- Okay, I respect that.

Sorry, was that?

- Okay.
- Cool.

- I can read now.

- Cool.

What if I don't wanna read now?

- You have to.

- Okay.
