- you just holler and I'm there.

- Thank you. That's very sweet.

- And cheap.

- Very cheap.

- That's the other bonus point.

- Yeah.

- The only thing it cost me was Rory's time.

- Rory.

He worked night and day on it.

- How is Rory doing?

- He's good. He's very good.

Oh, wow. I miss him.

So sorry to interrupt,

- but I need your help writing this text.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah, I just need to fire

my manager tonight. - Okay.

It is 10:
30. Is that the time to do this?

- Hey.

- Hey.

How's it going? Please, sit down.

- Sorry about earlier.

- Oh, don't worry.

No, it's your birthday, you

know? You've got stuff going on.

- How's college? Good?

- Oh, I love it.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

And everybody's real respectful

of me because I'm twice their age.

- Perfect.

- So that's good.

That's good.

So how are you? Any models

in your life at the moment?

No. Supermodels and I have mutually

agreed to take some time apart.

- Wow.

- Yeah. Yeah.

Good.

What about you? How's

the search for the one?

- Yeah, I've been on a couple of dates

with this guy. - Uh-huh.

- Josh.

- Mm-hmm.

He's very nice, but, eh,

I'm not sure he's the one.

I'm not even sure I know what the one is.

I'm not convinced of your idea of the one.

- Oh, no?

- No.

I don't think love is

about, you know, fireworks

and, you know, just birds

singing and the perfect person.

- That's a little depressing.

- No, I don't know.

Do you know what I think it's about? Love?

- Hmm?

- Percentages.

- Yeah, I've been thinking about this.

- Percentages?

It's all about percentages. You know,

like, all right, look at you and me, okay?

Now 18% of the time, you drove me crazy.

I'm talking f***ing insane, all right?

But 82% of the time,

I had more fun with you than anyone ever.

You know, that was good enough for me.

So I... I don't know.

I think consider what your

percentages are with Josh

and if you like the numbers,

give him a go.

Then again, what do I know?

I mean, I came here with Wade.

Let's get shots!

Come on!

- Wanna have a shot?

- No, I won't have a shot.

- Oh, come on.

- No, no, no.

Please, guys, honestly,

one, I'm too old and B, I've

got work tomorrow, honestly.

Well, my assistant's got work,

I've got to take the credit.

So I've got to be there to check on him.

You go. It's your birthday.

- It's really good to see you.

- Good to see you.

- Happy birthday.

- Thank you.

Come on.

You still got that

light in your eye

And our day is coming by and by

I'm traveling this long road

To be with you

We still got a long way...

Stuart.

79%.

Josh makes you happy 79% of the time?

- I'd stick with that bloke.

- No.

79% of the time I'm happy with you.

The first time I set eyes on you

I listened to you sing...

Wait, 79%? I gave you 82, woman.

That's because I'm better

than you in every single way.

- Name three ways you're better than me.

- More mature.

20/20 vision.

I am of normal human

height. There's so many.

Yeah, fair enough.

So long ago, but it

feels like yesterday

And I just want to tell you

You still got that

light in your eye

Yes, you do

And our day's coming by and by

I'm traveling this long road

To be with you

We still got a long way

We still got a long way to go

Shining light, shining

bright on the days gone down

Shining light, shining

bright on the days gone down

Shining light, shining

bright on the days gone down

We won't forget the days gone down

They're written in

our hearts, yeah, yeah

And we're as much in tune

as we were right at the start

It all seems so much harder now

It seemed so easy then, yeah, yeah

Well, someday just for fun,

we might do it all again

I just wanna tell you

You still got that

light in your eye

Yes, you do

And our day is coming by and by

I'm traveling this long road

To be with you

We still got a long way

We still got a long way to go.
