I should give it to you.

You should have it.

Hey, Alex, where are those pictures?

Those photos, remember? I wanted to give

you guys that picture. You know the one.

I think they're in here.

Pull over. Pull over!

Alex?

Alex?

Sh*t. I should go see if he's all right.

No, I'll go. This is between me and him.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Come on.

You know where she was last night?

She was with me.

You were vomiting.

You were shitting, remember that?

She was with me.

She was with me.

Come on! Come on!

Alex!

- Alex!

F***, what are you doing?

- What are you doing? What are you doing?

- Alex, what the f*** are you doing?

Take a f***ing breath.

Don't touch him! Don't touch him!

Sofe...

Sofe, he's...

He's gonna show you a photograph.

What photograph?

He took a picture of me

the first night I met him in Sydney.

Remember, I told you I got drunk.

Well, he took a picture.

- I don't think I wanna hear this.

- I met a girl.

And then...

All along, nothing happened.

Nothing happened.

And I know you probably don't believe me,

but nothing happened.

But this picture shows me asleep with her

the next day.

- Is that what this is about?

- Her name was Lena and...

God, I'm sure nothing happened.

If nothing happened,

then why couldn't you tell me about it?

No, don't go! Sophie, don't go!

What's important is he took a picture,

and he said that he threw it away,

but he kept it!

And he's gonna show it to you

to use against me, against us!

Sophie, nothing happened!

Wait. Why did you get separate rooms?

Why did you spend the night

with some girl in a photograph?

Are you going off with him?

Sophie, just tell me the f***ing truth.

Alex, what's happened to you?

I don't think I know who you are any more.

- Taylor, I mean, he's...

- Taylor? Taylor what?

The things he was saying. He made me do it.

- He didn't make you do anything.

- He did make me do...

I'm your boyfriend.

Why aren't you listening to me?

Do you think all this sh*t

has just happened by chance?

Why can't you see what he's doing?

He's a liar. He just...

He just wants you as one of his cheap fucks.

- Just stop, Alex.

- Stop what?

- I'm just telling you the f***ing truth.

- Please, stop.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.

I love you.

Listen, Taylor,

Alex and I should move on tomorrow.

We need to work things out.

Okay.

Anyway, I just... I just wanted to tell you.

Okay.

Who is it?

Can I come in?

I got what you asked for from Sofe.

What did I ask for?

Hi.

Listen, I just wanted to say I'm sorry, too.

- We haven't really gotten along as well...

- I didn't ask for anything.

She said you...

Bus ticket. For you.

Alex?

Alex?

Taylor?

Alex?

- What's up?

- Where are you going?

Just gonna head into town. Grab a drink.

What's going on?

- Alex is gone.

- Okay. Where?

He just... He sent me a text message.

- Did you call him?

- He won't pick up.

Prick.

- He just wants your reaction.

- But he's not in his room.

His stuff is gone.

He sent me a text message saying, "Gone. "

- Was it "Gone" or "Going"?

- "Going. " It was "Going. "

Right. Well, he's probably still there.

Bump into him on the way back.

I'll bring him back for you.

Don't worry about it.

Alex, call me.

Maybe you should wait here.

Will you just call me, okay?

I think you should wait here,

just in case he comes back.

Can we drive and look for him?

Do you think it's better if you just wait?

Yeah, I guess. Will you wait with me?

It's Alex.

I'll go check for him outside.

Hello? Hello?

Speak to me.

Do you know what?

I don't want it to end like this.

Alex?

I've had enough of this, Alex.

Nothing. Not out there.

Where are you gonna go to next?

I don't know.

Wherever you want.

I think I should go back to Sydney tomorrow.

Maybe go home.

Will you take me to the nearest place?

Okay.

We should be there

in about two and a half hours.

Sh*t.

Sorry, my eyes are just closing.

I think we should stop, just for a little bit.

Is that okay?

Yeah. I guess so.

Sofe.

I'm sorry all this happened.

Listen, it'll be okay, all right.

And you'll be okay.

Things will work out.

Thank you.

Taylor.

Taylor.

Sofe?

Sophie?

Are you there?

Yeah, I'm here.

What's up?

I was cold. I was

shivering.

Come here, I'll warm you up.

Come here.

It doesn't work unless you're touching.

Sofe.

Ingrid texted me.

Must have been while we were sleeping.

She's on her way to Katherine Gorge.

I thought...

I thought maybe we could meet her there.

You know, we should talk.

Sophie, you should tell me.

You know, you should talk to me

and you should tell me if something's wrong.

Sophie.

Hey, hey, come here.

Listen, listen, listen, Sofe. Stop here.

Ingrid never texted you last night.

Ingrid doesn't have a phone.

Come here. Sophie!

F***!

Sophie!

Where's Alex?

Why do you have his phone?

Sofe.

Come on. Don't be ridiculous.

Where is he?

- What the f*** have you done to Alex?

- Don't ask me that!

Don't ask me that.

Instead, ask what he did to you that night.

That has nothing to do with you.

No.

Open up.

Unlock it. Unlock it!

I'm sorry.

Neutral.

Start it in neutral.

Easy, easy. You're gonna stall again.

Good girl.

Where we headed? Where we going?

We going into town?

Not sure we got enough fuel for that.

F***!

- You wanted me.

- No, I didn't!

That's not true.

Come on!

Listen. You have to listen.

You have to listen.

Alex attacked me. He attacked me

because he found out about us.

There is no "us"!

What are you... What are you doing?

No!

Stop it.

No! God!

No!
