Honeymoon Page #2

Trixie?

Trixie, it's me.

Heh.

It's Will.

Holy...

Will.

My God, I haven't

seen you in forever.

Wow.

Uh, yeah.

Will.

God, you look...

Merci. Merci.

This is my... Paul,

my husband Paul.

Hey.

I've been building up the

maple beans here for years.

When did you start working here?

Uh, actually, it's my wife,

uh, Annie's family's place.

Annie's family owns it.

Ah. That's great.

Heh.

Yeah.

Sorry about that before.

Mm.

Everything's broken around here.

Still wearing

this old thing, huh?

Oh, yeah, despite

Annie's best efforts.

She'll have to pry it

off my cold, dead head.

Oh,

Will used to be a great hockey player.

Hey, still am.

That's the one with

the ice skates, right?

Well, uh,

let me see if I can rustle us up some grub.

Annie.

You should leave.

They're leaving.

You should leave.

They're leaving.

Annie's not feeling so well.

Not quite yourself today,

are you, Annie?

Well, let me

go grab those beans,

maybe some cheese curds

for old time's sake.

Can't believe you're here.

There's that smile.

Your husband is waking up early

to catch his wifey

a delicious dinner.

Hmm.

Really?

You're not even

gonna question that?

No, I... That sounds great.

I was just thinking.

About...

I don't know.

Nothing.

Your ex-lover.

He wa...

He was a summer friend

when I was a kid.

Heh.

Oh, really?

Trixie...

a friend?

That woman was just so...

Wait. Are you calling

his wife, "that woman"?

What? She seemed

completely out of it,

like not normal.

Yeah,

probably because that woman has had enough

of the "I can kill a bear

with my bare hands" bullshit.

Well, he's just

a little intense.

Yeah, a little intense,

like a f***ing maniac.

Hey, in the five minutes

we were there,

he smashed a lamp...

Yeah, well, he's not

like that. I know him.

And put his wife's arm

in a vise grip.

She obviously

did something awful.

Are you defending him?

Do you miss him?

What, just

'cause he's a little more alpha than you?

You love him.

Well, I can't help it.

His tiny, sexy,

13-year-old...

I'm not like him.

You're not like her.

We aren't like them.

I know.

We're the best.

Mm.

Mm.

Get it.

Mm.

Mm.

Mm.

I'm gonna

catch you a giant fish...

with my bare hands.

Sh*t.

My alarm went off early.

The power

must have gone out.

Bea?

Are you peeing?

Are you ignoring me?

Bea?

This isn't funny.

Come on.

Fine.

Keep hiding.

I'm going back to sleep.

Bea?

Bea?!

Bea?

Bea?!

Please!

This isn't funny!

Come on!

Bea?

Bea!

Bea!

Bea?

You okay?

Yeah.

What happened?

Nothing.

I don't know.

What happened?

Nothing.

I'm okay.

Your skin is... is so cold.

I'm fine. I'm okay.

You... You feel so...

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Where's your...

Where's your nightgown?

Where's your...

Where's your, uh...

Paul, stop.

Come here.

Um...

Paul, come here.

I couldn't find you.

Come here.

Please come here.

Please come here.

Come here.

Okay.

Honey, look.

I mean,

I'm just cold. Shh.

Okay.

You're okay.

We're okay.

I'm so sorry.

Why? No.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean

to scare you. I...

I didn't.

Um...

you... you must

have been, uh...

I must be sleepwalking.

Sleepwalking. Okay.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Okay. Um...

It's okay.

I thought...

I thought... I thought

something bad had...

I'm fine.

How's my little zombie face

this morning?

I'm serious.

I'm fine.

Hmm?

Mm.

What you making?

French toast.

Oh, good.

Obviously not as good as my pancakes,

but good.

Heh.

What's that smell?

Whoa.

These... These

are burning.

What?

This bread isn't battered.

What are you talking about?

You forgot to batter the bread.

No, I didn't. It...

Yes, you did.

That's the whole point

of... of French toast.

You... You batter the bread.

All right, you okay here?

Yeah. No, I'm f...

I'm just feeling a little funny.

That's all.

Funny? Like how?

I don't know.

We should go into town.

No, no, I'm fine.

Gotta be, like, a doctor or something or...

No, don't be crazy.

We've spent hundreds

of nights together,

and you've never

been a sleepwalker.

I'm just tired.

You've never forgotten

how to make French toast.

I promise.

Mm.

Okay.

So...

bit of milk.

That's an egg.

Shut up.

Now for the cinnamon...

Okay, I got it.

I got it.

Okay.

Got it.

Well, I made the coffee.

Oh.

Well, I thought today, maybe,

if you're up for it,

we could go out onto the...

What is it?

What are you doing?

Look at this fatty one.

Oh. Oh.

This big, fatty one

is gonna be our dinner.

Why aren't you laughing?

I don't know.

You want to go back?

No. No.

Thought you would

find that funny,

as a frog killer.

Hey.

Froggy Krueger.

Yo.

Let's go swimming.

Heh.

That's funny.

You're funny.

Last one in's a rotten egg!

How's it going?

How's it going with you?

Did you rinse off all

the creepy-crawlies?

Why'd you do that?

You knew the water was cold.

I don't know.

I thought it'd be funny.

I'm sorry.

What's going on with you?

I'm tired.

The drive, the wedding,

stress of everything

is catching up to me.

The wedding?

Oh, I... No,

I was just saying...

You wanted to get married.

Yeah. Yes. Yes.

That's all I want.

I just want to make you happy.

You do.

I promise.

Paul.

Paul.

Paul.

What's this?

What?

What are these?

What is this?

Bea.

Jesus.

They're mosquito bites.

I know what a f***ing

mosquito bite looks like.

W-Way to get me

in the mood.

Okay.

Okay, I just...

Do you think something

maybe bit you

when you were sleepwalking?

Yeah. Yeah, no,

I think you're right.

I think something bit me.

You do?

Yes, mosquitoes.

Don't get upset.

I'm worried.

I'm tired, okay?

I think I'm just

gonna go take a sleep.

What?

I'm just gonna go take a nap.

Bea.

I think... Oh, I...

I kind of have a headache.

Oh, I feel like we should...

I feel like we should get

a good night's sleep.

I'm just not really in the mood.

Oh, I don't know.

I took some Advil,

but this hea...

I don't know.

I don't know.

I took some Tylenol,

but this headache won't go away.

I can't help it.

My tummy hurts.

My stomach just feels icky.

Icky.

Icky.

Hey there.

Hey.

Trade you.

Two of a kind.

Some people

might call it a pair.

Hmm. Small straight.

I'll take that as my Chance.

You're my chance.

I want to kiss you.

I want to kiss you.

You're gonna kill me.

Mm.

What? What is it?

Oh, I kind of have a headache.

Oh, I took some Tylenol,

but this headache won't go away.

Are you mad?

No.

No.

Are you trying

to not have sex with me?

What?

Are you avoiding

sleeping with me?

You're acting crazy.

I'm your husband.

And I'm your wife.

We talk to each other.

I know that.

You can tell me if...

My head hurts.

Did something happen

in the woods?

I was sleepwalking.

You feel distant.

Y-You feel

different.

You feel distracted.

Bea.

I want to make you happy.

Put on your nightgown.

What? What are

you talking about?

Your special

honeymoon nightgown.

Why?

I want to see it on you.

Come on. Put it on.
