Cloverfield
It's 6:
42 a.m.Beth's Dad's place.
He's out of town.
And it's already a good day.
Beth.
-Rob, what are you doing?
-Nothing.
-Well, then stop.
-Nothing.
-That's...
-Stop it.
She's shy.
I could just see this
ending up on the lnternet.
Well, fine, cover up. See if I care.
-I'm interested in other things.
-Like what?
Like you.
-Oh, man.
-That was close.
Do it really... I'm scared of it.
-It's only 30 minutes out.
-Shut up. I've never been.
You've never been to Coney Island?
Oh, how have you
never been to Coney Island?
I don't know, I just... I've never been.
Oh, that's... It's so much fun.
I'm taking you. We're going.
Oh, my God.
-Yeah, I can't wait to...
-Give me this.
What are you doing? What?
Oh, all right. Well,
then from the neck up, okay?
That's the only way I consent to this.
Oh, please, Rob,
nobody's paying for that online.
You've never been to
Twelve-Chest-Hairs.com, have you?
-Okay. What else?
-What else, what?
Other than cotton candy
and Tilt-A-Whirls?
-What do you want to do today?
-If I answer that...
-All right, is this thing on?
-Look out!
Babe, it's not my camera.
I don't know if it's the on button
or the zoom button.
All right. Here, here, here.
I think I got it. Is this on?
Oh, perfect. And now we can have
a nice record of you getting run over.
Is that funny?
What time is everybody
starting to show up?
-It's getting late here.
-A couple hours.
-That's why we have to hurry.
-Where are we going?
We're going... We're just going
around the corner to the store!
I want you to go around
with your brother's camera
and get testimonials from everyone.
Why? I mean,
it's not like this is a wedding.
I know it's not a wedding.
I said like a wedding.
I can't get this.
I don't get... I mean,
I don't understand why I have to do it.
'Cause, I mean, I don't...
I don't even know how to work this...
-That's what I think is gonna happen.
-No, I'm not!
-You totally are. You...
-You have no clue!
Okay, well, let me ask you a question.
Can you see me through the viewfinder?
Yeah. Got you.
Good. Now can you see me trying
to carry these bags all by myself?
Here, practice doing two things at once.
-That's good! That was good.
-Thank you.
I'm not lugging this thing around
-all night long.
-He is your brother.
This is important. Stop freaking out.
I understand that, Lily, but it's a sh*t job!
-No, it isn't.
-Yes, it is! I'm not doing it!
Jason, I have been planning this
for two weeks!
-All I want you to do is help me.
-Okay, babe, babe.
Okay. All right? I'll do it. It's fine.
Babe, come on.
I was just kidding! Come on!
Hud? Hud, listen to me.
I got a job for you.
I already have got a job.
-I'm doing the sign, so...
-Yeah, no. I see that,
but this is more important than the sign.
You know how, like, at weddings,
people give testimonials
to the camera, right?
No.
All right. You're gonna take the camera
and just, you know, go around the party
and film people wishing Rob good luck.
I don't know, man.
-That's a lot of responsibility.
-This is important.
And then you have
to do it the whole night...
And Marlena's gonna be here.
-She is?
-Oh, yeah. She is.
-So you're gonna take that.
-Oh, hold on.
-And you're gonna talk to her...
-I didn't...
-For Rob.
-I didn't say I would do it.
-Just try it out.
-All right, I'll do a few.
You can, just do mine...
-Are you ready?
-Yeah, go.
All right.
Rob, I don't even know what to say, bro.
Best of luck in Japan.
I love you so much,
and I'm proud of you.
-That's it.
-That's it?
-Yeah. Easy enough.
-Yeah. It's actually kind of fun.
-You enjoy it, Hud.
-Thanks, man.
Yeah, I'm doing...
Hey, what's up, man?
Hey, guys? Hey.
-What do we say?
-Anything.
Bon voyage, Rob.
Or however you say that in Japanese.
Yeah, good.
Oh, yeah, all right. Oh, yeah...
-Hud, what are you doing?
-I'm documenting the night.
But I thought I asked Jason to do that.
Oh, yeah, well, Jason asked me to do it,
so I've been doing it.
I've been doing it really well.
Well, are you gonna
take it seriously, though?
Because it's really important.
No, of course. I've been taking it
really, really seriously.
-Very seriously.
-You promise?
Yeah, you wanna do
your testimonial now?
-Okay.
-Yeah, do it right now.
Okay.
Okay, just open up to him,
'cause this is gonna be
-the last thing he sees you...
-Okay, Hud, I got it.
Robert Hawkins,
I can't believe you're leaving me
to look after your brother by myself.
Oh! Easy, easy. I mean
I'm obviously standing right here...
And I know we're not officially family,
yet, but...
-Not fair, 'cause I'm gonna...
-Dude.
-Okay.
-I'll cut him out later.
But I think of you as my brother,
and I hope you think of me as a sister.
So, you better call us.
Now that you have this job,
you can afford to call us, so...
-Hud?
-Yeah.
Yeah, sorry. No, you're good.
You're good. You're good.
-That was good!
-That's it?
I thought that was really, really good.
Yeah, but you weren't even paying
attention for...
Okay. Okay, you can do this.
Yeah. You got this, man. You got this.
-What's up, man?
-Hey, what's up, dude?
What's up?
Excuse me! Hey, Marlena?
-Hey, what's up?
-Hi. Hi.
Hey, did you know that I'm going around
the party and I'm...
Do you know Rob's leaving?
-Like it's his going-away party.
-Yeah. Yeah.
Cool. Hey, so we're taping,
I think, people talking about him.
Oh, no, thank you.
I barely even know Rob.
I'm just coming to say hi to Lily,
so it's a little weird,
if I'm even on it, I think, but thanks.
Okay, cool,
except I'm supposed to get everybody.
So have you ever been to a wedding?
No, I get what you're doing. I just...
I don't want to do it, but thank you.
Okay, cool.
We'll just do a short one real quick.
Okay.
Hey, Rob, Marlena.
I think we've met, like,
probably three times before, total,
I was really drunk,
so I don't really even know what to say.
But you have a cool job!
That's something!
-Like you're president of something!
-Vice president!
Also really cool.
So good luck with that
and we're gonna be here
keeping New York really safe
and fun for you when you come back.
-Cool, that was a really good one.
-Yeah?
Yeah, we can do
another one if you want.
Do you actually have,
like a card or something?
Well, my agency... We're leaving.
We're going on this stupid retreat
and they like all this video,
-like, bonding crap.
-Oh, yeah. I'm actually...
-I'm not a professional.
-What?
-I'm not a professional. I'm Hud.
-Hug?
No, no, no, Hud.
I'm Rob and Lily's friend.
-We met, like, several times before.
-Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, you have the camera
in front of your face,
-it's probably why I didn't...
-Okay, here. If I move it?
-Oh, yeah. What's going on? Totally.
-Yeah.
Yeah, cool. It's nice to see you again.
