Some really, really good friends.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cheers.

[Soft music]

[people chattering]

[woman laughs]

Hey, I'll be right back.

[car horn honking]

[dials phone]

[cell phone rings]

- Hey.

- Anna?

- Hey.

- Hey. How are you?

Um...

I'm OK, yeah. I just, um...

I just...

It was a bit of a shock.

How's everything going?

I moved into a new place.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

Yeah, that's great.

That sounds really good.

So, what have you been doing?

I'm just working really hard and...

I'm busy and...

Yeah, stuff's going... going well.

It's been a good few months.

- That's great to hear.

- Yeah, I just... I hope it carries on.

It's, uh...

It's nice to hear your voice.

I'm so sorry I woke you up.

OK, well, I'd better go, um...

before it gets too late

and I have to be up.

- All right.

- OK.

OK, bye. I'll talk to you later,

all right?

OK, bye. Bye, Jacob.

- OK, bye.

- Bye-bye.

[phone beeps off]

[soft piano music]

[dials phone] [panting]

[line ringing]

- Hello?

[voice wavering] Hey.

Hey...

[sobs] Um...

Yeah, do you want to come over?

[chuckles]

Come over now?

And, uh... I'll just be here?

- Yeah.

[both laughing]

- OK.

- Yeah, I'll see you in half an hour.

I'll see you in half an hour.

[Jacob] Just give me a couple

days. I'll get there, OK?

OK.

OK.

[laughs] [grunts]

[thud] [both laughing]

What have you been doing?

[making funny sounds]

Waiting for you.

Have you been sleeping

with loads of people?

Yeah.

And then... we have to

go and see my parents.

Yeah, of course.

We should only do

very English things.

Yeah. Let's have tea and crumpets.

Yes!

Have you?

Have you?

Let's not talk about this.

- Just tell me.

- Not yet.

Have you?

I said maybe.

[grunts]

I don't want to talk about it.

[Jacob] You're right.

- You're right. That was stupid.

- Yeah.

[door buzzes]

It's a man.

Is it a man?

- Hello.

[man] Hi. I've got a delivery for you.

Oh, wow! [laughs]

[Jacob] What is it?

- It's a massive box.

Do you know anything about this?

No.

[grunts, laughs]

[Anna squeals]

- You got it?

- Yeah.

Oh, it's my chair!

Oh, my God!

[squealing]

[singsong] Da-da!

[sizzling]

[soft knocking on door]

Hey, Anna.

- Hello.

- Here you go.

Thank you very much.

[man] Sorry I kept it.

- Was it useful?

[man] It was all right.

- Good.

[man] You all right then?

- Oh, amazing, yeah. Yeah.

- Did you have a nice evening?

- It was OK. She burnt the meal again.

[Anna] What?! [laughs]

- I know. God help her.

All right, thanks a lot.

- OK, thank you.

- Everything all right?

[Anna] Yeah, good. How are you?

- You sure?

[Anna] Yeah, don't I seem it?

I'm just, like, cooking away.

I hope I haven't

burnt the chicken,

- but what can you do?

[man] Well, I'll let you go.

[Anna] Thank you. I'll see you soon.

- All right, see you.

[man] Take care.

- Bye, Simon.

[door closes]

[Anna giggles]

Hey...

[all] Hello!

- How are you?

- Hello!

- Natalie.

- Jacob. Really nice to meet you.

- Hello.

- Hi, I'm Jacob.

- So nice to meet you.

- You, too.

- How's everything going?

- She's moving in with her boyfriend.

- No, I don't think so.

- Who is this?

- John.

- Are you nervous?

- I would be so nervous if I was you.

- I know. It's a big... change.

[woman 1] Oh... taking that step.

[Anna] I know, yeah.

[woman 1] So, the other day,

we got some passes

come through to the office for a spa.

I think it's the one in...

- There's four of them.

- Oh, great! My God, that's amazing!

I had the most incredible massage there.

[woman 1] I'm not free next

weekend, but the weekend after.

- Great. That'd be lovely.

[woman 2] Oh, that'd be amazing.

Leave early, yes...

[Paul Simon:

"Crazy Love, Vol. ll"]

[mother squeals]

- Good to see you.

[Jacob] It's so great to see you.

[Bernard] Come on in.

- All right. Sorry.

[mother] Hello!

- Hello.

[Jacob] How are you? Great to see you.

And how's business?

[stammers]

It's been good, actually.

Very, very lucky, um... We...

[mother] How many more days

has he got here?

[Anna] Um... not many.

So, what are you going to do?

I mean, is this how it's going to be?

I don't know.

Don't ask questions like that.

- I don't know, we'll see.

- It's expensive. You can't just keep

- flying back and forth.

- I know that. We're just making it work

how we can at the moment.

And then we'll see what happens.

We're just taking it each...

day as it comes.

- I've just moved in to a loft space.

But we're very lucky because things

have been going really well.

- Good. Yeah.

- Yeah.

Ideally, it'd be

great to work out here.

It's just I am so

set up in Los Angeles.

[Bernard] No, I understand.

[all laughing]

[mother] stop it!

- All right. This is a blended whiskey.

- Oh, no, here we go!

And all I want you to do

is just try it. OK?

And then we'll move on

to something much nicer.

- You have to close your eyes.

- You don't have to close your eyes.

- You do have to close your eyes!

- All right, close your eyes.

[Bernard] All right.

Just a flavor of whiskey

that you know. This...

is a single malt, and it's

been in casks for 12 years.

And I know that because it

says so right on the bottle!

- Oh! That's so good!

[mother] You can share it.

[Bernard] And there is vodka

in it, but not that much.

- Although...

- What else do we need?

I'm not a big...

I have to admit to you all...

- You had the tiniest, tiniest sip!

- ...that I'm not a big fan.

[Bernard] What, of tomato juice?

[mother] Of the Bloody Mary?

It's such a pity

you have to go back.

Yeah, I wish, I wish I could

stay longer. I really do.

Well, it would be so much easier if the

whole immigration thing was sorted out.

- I asked you...

[Bernard] Because I know Harry

has been a bit of a slowpoke

handling this stuff,

but once you've annoyed them,

you have to play by the book.

And it takes much more time and,

I tell you, a lot more money.

I realize all you did,

darling, was overstay

- for a couple of months.

[Anna] Do we have to go over it again?

[Bernard] No, we don't, but...

- We've been through it so many times.

[Bernard] But why not go

for an easier solution?

- Bernard.

- If you two got married,

it'd save me a lot of money.

[mother] Bernard!

[Bernard] What?

- Well, it would be.

[mother] Sorry.

I think you've had enough

of the whiskey, all right?

[Bernard] I don't

think I've had enough.

[mother] I don't want

to embarrass them.

"Tantony." It's the

runty pig of the litter.

[all laughing]

[mother] You're so stupid!

- Oh, God, I've got to stop it.

[Bernard] This is far more disciplined

- than we normally are, I might say.

[mother] Right.

Who's dasher now?

[Anna] You, Mum.

[mother] Oh, no, no. Really?

[soft piano music]

I just feel weird.

Why do you feel weird?

I just feel kind of...

You feel weird...

I hate it when you

say you feel weird.

Why?

[sighs] Because it doesn't feel like

I'm actually part of your life.

I feel like I'm on vacation.
