- Could I get his number from you?

- And she called you for his number?

So bold

- It's different for girls now

They are much luckier than we were

- I didn't even know there was a new tenant

- He's young

And he's Jewish

I always thought her and Spencer...

- So did I, so did I

- But nothing yet. And now this.

- So sad, for him.

Such a handsome man

- So handsome

- Almost tragic

- So who's he having dinner with?

- He didn't say

I tried but he wouldn't budge.

He's like a vault, that one

Is that, that Valrie woman?

- Probably

- She's terrible

- She's sad

- She's horrible

- She drinks, so much

- Clearly

- Let you know what I see

- See you soon

- I know it's ridiculous but

it's only a few blocks, so...

Anyway, let me know if it's

inconvenient or anything. OK, thanks.

See you at dinner either way

- Hi there

- Hey

- I'm eh... Hey

- Hey

- Am I late?

- No, not at all

You too, OK.

Make sure someone picks you up

- I will

- Sorry about that message by the way

- What, why?

It's, my honor.

My pleasure

Actually I felt terrible that I

hadn't thought of it myself.

I mean there is a serial killer

attacking pretty young girls in NDG

and you having to walk home by yourself.

That's just crazy

- Well, thanks for that

- Well, yeah

Hey

- Hi

- So, Louise is just up stairs getting ready

- Come on in

So, you teach high school.

Is that it?

Well, elementary school actually

- Gotcha

Kind'a like baby-sitting, isn't it?

- Well, yes there is an

element of that to it.

But one can make a case that it's the most

important time in one's life learning wise, anyway

'Cause technically your brain will never be as open

to sort of new ideas as it is when you are like a little

- I was kidding

- Right, of course

- I'm sure it is really rewarding.

Really

- I love it

I really do

- No, I bet, I bet

And what is it. You just came back from...

- China. Northern China

- Wow, that's crazy

- Yeah, it's intense

- Were you doing the same thing there?

- Yeah, pretty much

I guess there is a bit more

- Chinese?

- Yeah, exactly

- But you are from here

originally though, right?

- Well, yeah. I was born in Ottawa.

But I grew up here in NDG

- Really...

Welcome back to Canada then

I mean for now

- Yeah

You know what. That's an idea,

that's an idea

To Canada

- For now

- I wonder what's taking Louise so long

- She is probably just playing with her p*ssy

The cat, man. She got two cats

she's obsessed with.

Victor, you can't make it that easy for me

- No promises

Allow me to tell you something

and forgive me if I

sound like I'm an a**hole

I mean condescending.

I don't wanna sound condescending

I'm just making it worse, aren't I?

No, I would like to say

It is inspiring to me to see how effortless

you make everything look

That was a terrible thing to say.

Oh, my God.

I should just never be allowed to speak

and I don't drink very often.

I'm drunk

- Did Madame Gauthier tell you?

- Tell me what?

- My story?

- No, I don't know.

I mean no

Well, she loves to gossip.

So you've been warned.

Car accident

Last winter,

my wife died

- Wow, that's awful

- Yeah.

I know it is

The doctor said I should be

able to walk again one day

but so far so nothing

- That, that is an awful story

- Yeah, it is

- Spencer

I can't tell

you how sorry I am

- Why the f*** are you sorry.

You didn't do anything.

Where is Louise.

I am starving

Look at that.

I fished my wish

- Are these guys new?

- Which ones?

- Mean looking sharky ones

- Ehm, no I don't think so

- Really?

- Well, some are. I think

OK, so since someone forgot to bring dessert

- Oh, I completely forgot. Bad guest.

- You know I could run out to the

store right now and grab some

- But he still managed to bring two

very decent bottles of wine, so...

- I like wine. I don't drink it very often but I like

to research it. Read about it, compare the differences

- Is he ever gonna stop talking?

- Sorry

- So wine plus wine minus dessert equals coffee and slightly

less of a Choco than Louise gets to the power of...

Can we please turn of

the f***ing television?

- Now?

I mean.

We don't even know officially

- Oh, yes we do.

You won man. Canada.

Can we mute it at least?

But, you know. I didn't just win.

We all win.

- We all win? How'd we all win?

Because we're English?

- No.

What...

- Can I make a drink-drink?

- Of course

- You want something, Victor?

- Would it be OK if I rolled a joint?

- It would be very OK

- Great

Do you want a scotch?

- I do

- I'm so sorry about dessert.

I f***ed that up.

- Oh, God. Please stop apologizing

- But that Choco was so good.

What was it?

- I don't know, man

- OK, it was delicious. Thank you.

- We will have to do this again. Soon.

My place next time.

Oh, Jesus Christ. No, your place.

I will cook then.

- OK, thanks...from before

- No problem at all. At all.

So you're off at same time tomorrow?

- Yeah

- Great, I'll be there

- No, you don't have to...

- Are you kidding me.

I can't have you walking home by yourself

with that crazy running around out there

- Yeah, OK, thanks

Good night

- This voice mailbox is full.

Please try...

- Hi there

Ready to go home?

So how was work today?

- It was fine

- 'anything interesting happen?

- Nope

- How would you feel about having

some real Chinese food tonight?

- Em, no

- Oh, OK

- I work at a Chinese restaurant

- No, I know. I just thought that we... Never mind.

Don't forget about my party at eight. It's on Friday night.

- OK

- And I got a surprise for you.

I really think you are gonna like it

- Thanks, Victor.

I will see you soon, OK?

Jesus

Oh, sorry guys

- Hello, maybe because you're English, and you won

the referendum you did not understand my message

I'll be clear.

Keep your f***ing cats away from...

- Hello beautiful. It seems we may have another

small problem with My Lady like you are...

- How could anyone not love you?

Scaring birds away from her bird bath

It's f***ing winter.

God is scaring the birds away from her bird bath

And isn't she not supposed to block

the fire escape with her garbage?

- I think she's losing her sh*t.

- Oh, really?

- You should have seen the

fit she threw this morning

Her creepy little husband went

away on another "business trip"

- I don't think he's creepy.

I think he's pathetic.

- You don't get a serial rapist vibe off of him?

- No, I don't think he's that interesting

Oh, there's an article about

the actual serial rapist

- Oh, national coverage.

How exciting.

Can I ask you something?

- Sure

- How come you didn't tell me you knew that last victim?

What was her name...?

- Johanne

- Yes

- I don't know.

I didn't know her very well

How do you even know that?

Know what?

- That I knew her

- One of the papers said she

worked at a Chinese restaurant in NDG.

- Which paper?

- I don't know, one of the ones

Ms. Van Ilen brought over probably

- What did the article say?

Just that she worked at a Chinese
