Frances Ha Page #2

I'm running rehearsal today,

so I'll see you there.

- Bye.

- Bye.

And then he was like,

"Rachel, you are cold and mean. "

And I was like, "F***...

that really hurt my feelings. "

[Chattering, indistinct]

[Colleen]

And up over the head.

Boom. Perfect.

Over and... shoulder:

[Man Snapping Fingers In Time]

Boom, boom, boom. That was great.

[Colleen] Face each other.

Look at each other.

Wrap the head around.

That's nice. That's nice.

Move it around.

That's good, Rachel.

That's night.

- All night. Understudies, out.

- [Clapping Hands]

Understudies, out. Out.

All right. Good.

Take it from the beginning.

- [Frances] Relev and down.

- [Classical]

Pli and straighten...

and pli and straighten...

and relev and down.

And relev all the way up

and turn...

to the other side...

and all the way down.

And now we have

the other foot in front.

And pli and straighten

and pli -

- Ahoy, sew!

- Ahoy, sexy!

[No Audible Dialogue]

[Brakes Screeching]

- There's no service.

- Sometimes there is for a second.

What is going on

with that phone, lady?

I didn't want to do it without knowing

it was okay with you first.

- Do what? - I want to move into

this apartment with Lisa.

It's this great apartment in Tribeca,

which is what I've always wanted...

but I don't want to do it

if it's not okay with you.

- Oh.

- They need to know by tomorrow...

so I kind of need to say

something today.

Who have you been e-mailing?

My parents, for help

with the broker's fee.

- You have to pay our rent.

- I know.

I'll pay till the end of the lease.

You know, there's only

another two months anyway.

Are you okay with it?

I really don't want to do it if you're not.

- I thought we were gonna renew our lease.

- Yeah, but we never talked about it.

- I could've moved in with Dan.

- Not if you broke up.

- That's why we broke up.

- Really?

No.

It's literally on my favorite street.

Lisa said it was too good to pass up.

- You hate Lisa.

- She's okay.

- We make fun of her.

- We're both really clean.

I'm busy.

- I wish it was gonna be with you.

- Yeah.

- But Lisa found the place.

- Right.

Does this train go to DeKalb?

We could always look for a place

together, if you want.

But it's really hard

to find stuff in Tribeca.

I can't afford Tribeca.

I'm not leaving you.

I'm just moving neighborhoods.

What are you doing?

I put my ring on my thumb,

and I'm having trouble getting it off.

Hold your hand above your head.

It'll drain the blood out.

[Brakes Screeching]

I look like

I'm asking a question.

Ow! F***! F***!

[Shouting] We bought the kettle

together, remember?

At the Mexican superstore?

Jesus!

Bring it back!

Or buy me another kettle!

[Exclaims]

Hi. I just - I just got a tax rebate.

Do you want to go to dinner?

This is me in the locker room

with the Knicks.

- Wow.

- Sophie said you liked basketball.

That was just one time.

Oh, crazy.

Oh, yeah. I was goofing around with

this vintage Triumph I think I'm gonna buy.

- Motorcycles are so loud.

- What?

You can't listen to music

when you're on a motorcycle.

But you're on a motorcycle.

- This is me with Jay Leno.

- He's such a dick.

I know,

but don't you just love him?

- Oh!

- No.

- Yes.

- No.

Ye- No. Yes.

I'm the one with the tax rebate.

- Can I take it?

- Uh - Uh - Uh-

Fine.

Just because you bought dinner

doesn't mean I'm gonna sleep with you.

I'm not trying to sleep with you.

- No, I was pretending to be a

liberated woman. - Oh. I got it.

Thanks for paying.

That was very sweet. You're a lady.

[Waitress]

Sorry, but the card didn't go through.

- Do you have another card you want to try?

- Oh, sh*t. Sorry.

- This is a debit card.

- Only credit cards or cash.

Okay-

I'm so embarrassed.

I'm not a real person yet.

- I got it.

- No, no. No.

I'm just gonna go run

and get some cash.

- Where's your ATM?

- [Man] No ATM. Not working.

Is there an ATM that way?

That way? Okay.

[Machine Whirring]

[Chattering, indistinct]

All right. I'll ask her.

I'll let you know.

Okay, man. See you.

Sorry, that was Benji.

My Sophie.

You go to Switzerland?

Have I been to Switzerland?

No.

No. I mean, did you go to -

Where were you?

Oh, I - It took me

so long to find the -

What the f***'?

You're bleeding.

What? Oh!

- I c- I can't find it.

- It's somewhere on your arm.

I - Oh, sh*t! Sorry.

Don't apologize to me.

Oh, damn it. Let me -

No, no. One second.

I'm gonna go...

use the bathroom.

- [Frances] This place is pretty awesome.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

- I'm a first responder.

- Ah. You didn't have to do that.

- You're injured.

I know, but I'm fine.

- There.

- Like a Boy Scout.

Sophie makes fun of me because

I can't account for my bruises.

- We're not living together anymore.

- Really?

Yeah. I'm gonna have

to find a new place.

I can't afford to stay there alone.

I was thinking Washington Heights.

The chick in the little room

might be moving to Portland next month.

Oh. That's good to know.

You smoke inside?

- Yeah. Don't you?

- No.

- Want to?

- Yeah.

This makes me feel like

a bad mother in 1987.

You want to see my room?

Oh!

- Is this your family?

- Nope.

Yo, check it.

Vintage lenser.

Eh!

- [Door Opens]

- [Man] Here we are.

[Woman]

Oh, my God. This is amazing.

- [Man] Lev? Honey, you home?

- Oh, Benji's home.

[Benji]

So do you do it professionally?

[Frances] Yes.

Well I mean, I'm an apprentice...

but it is a professional

dance company.

Oh. I love dance.

I dated a dancer in high school...

and her teacher said

I could've really had a future in it.

You liar. He's a liar.

No, I'm not.

Ask anyone from school.

No, I really love to dance.

It's pretty great.

I mean, it's a hard world, but -

- Do us a dance.

- I'd feel weird.

Come on.

Just one move.

Uh...

[Benji] Woman Laughing]

That was great.

You should be in this music video

a friend is working on.

- I'll hook you guys up.

- You guys are like magic.

[Benji]Is Noodle Champion

still open? I'm starving.

- I don't think so.

- All we have is - We have eggs.

I want something prepared...

and brought to me.

Wait.

- Bye. It was really good. - [Lev] I'll

call ya. We'll shoot some pigeons.

- I'll let you know about my show.

- Yes, please.

- I love your hair.

- Thank you.

- Thanks for stopping by.

- Bye.

This is the best night I've had

since Sophie dumped me.

I should probably go.

Make a left out of the building,

take the first right.

- The F is on the other side of the bridge, on

East Broadway. - You'll see a 99-cent store.

Okay. Yeah.

I should go.

Is that chick really

moving to Portland?

- Yeah.

- Before you go, do us another dance.

Okay-

[Laughing]

["Modern Love "]

I know when to go out...

or when to stay in.

Get things done.

[Shouts, Laughs]

I catch the paperboy

But things don't really change

I'm standing in the wind

But I never wave bye-bye

But I try

I try

- Never gonna fall for

- Modern love

[Shouting]
