Synopsis: The healthy living philosophies of an ultra-positive gym owner, Trevor, played by Guy Pearce, is tested against his employee Kat's more pragmatic approach, played by Cobie Smulders. It doesn't help that the two have slept together and he harbours lingering feelings for her. Her unresolved anger threatens to ruin the gym's relationship with a wealthy new client, Danny, played by Kevin Corrigan. Matters are further jeopardized when Trevor, trying to smooth the situation, gives way to his own emotions instead. In spite of their best efforts, neither is able to truly move on. The business risk Trevor is in too deep to back away from and the uncertainty of something more with Kat threatens to profoundly impact both their lives.

a call when I'm back.

I'm actually a bit slammed next week

with the opening, so...

but look, we'll find a time.

I'm really looking forward to it.

- Yeah... just one little thing.

- Okay, great. I'll just talk to you soon?

- Just one little thing.

- Sorry?

Danny wants to sell me

half of your business.

Danny was asking for $200.

I talked him down to $150.

Still there?

- You know he's a lunatic.

- Yeah. Yeah, I know. And Trevor, look,

- I'm not gonna mess with your dream.

- Hey, come on.

Don't worry, I'm gonna...

I'm gonna turn him down.

Although you have to admit,

it would be kind of fun, right?

- Having me for a partner?

- Hey, wait a minute.

Wait a minute, don't turn him down.

Why don't you buy from him, yeah?

I mean, you pay him $150, and I'll pay you

10 times that or 20 times that, all right?

And then we can upgrade from coffee and

have a nice dinner, and everyone's happy.

Hey, listen, can I just call you back?

I've just got to take this other call.

- F***ing ants.

- Big business, I get it.

No, no, no, no, I'll call you back

in a minute, all right? It's not business.

A lovely lady then, perhaps.

It's my daughter, Kat.

I'll talk to you in a minute.

Are you f***ing kidding me? I...

I worked for you for two f***ing years.

I got close to you, I slept with you,

and you never even f***ing mentioned

that you had a f***ing daughter!

There's not even any pictures

up anywhere!

Great, great. Things are really,

really hotting up around here.

Hey, Raymond, come say hi to Gina.

Hey, hey, hey.

Come say hi to Gina.

Say, "hello, hello, hello, Gina."

Paul? When you call me back

when you get this, mate.

I need to know what the f***'s going on.

So would you just give me a call? Cheers.

Stop calling me.

Danny, I just want to talk, mate.

I know, that's why you keep calling.

Listen, if you're trying to piss me off,

you're doing a really good job.

No, I'm training you. I'm training you.

- I don't understand why...

- Just tell the girl you love her.

Stop calling.

It is not fair to watch a fit man

eat pancakes for breakfast.

And you say, "no, it is not fair."

No, it is not.

It is not fair that your favorite movie star

can buy nice body from plastic doctor.

Choose your misery...

you can cry, or you can work.

That's great. That's fantastic.

Yeah, it's basically a cult.

- This food's divine.

- Thank you.

I feel like that's the kind of stuff I'm

saying to my clients all the time, as well.

You know, there really is

no perfect body. That's a myth.

But there's your perfect body,

so let's go and build that together.

No. I mean,

this is a myth, too, I think.

Yeah.

I choose to make my body feel nice.

I choose to marry a gorgeous woman

who prepares food for me,

makes other men envious.

But some day, this body

will break down. It will die.

Just like some ugly fat man who smokes

two packs of cigarettes a day.

I mean, it's okay,

but I do not call it perfect.

No. No, you know what? I think the only

time I heard you say the word "perfect"

was that one time

that you called that guy...

What was his name, that CrossFit guy?

You called him the perfect a**hole.

Well, sometimes,

I'm not so clear as I need to be.

- No, I know exactly what you meant.

- Yeah, I think you're perfectly clear.

And... you know,

hearing it from you, hearing this stuff

from you, it's really inspiring.

I mean, that's why I wanted

to come and see you, you know,

is to really learn

from your experiences.

But I also wanted

to sort of just share with you

a little bit about what I'm doing

back in Austin.

I... I've always dreamed about

having great guests like you

come and give seminars,

etcetera, but you know,

I've never had the space,

and I've never had the infrastructure

to make it worth your while.

But now I'm expanding

into something larger.

You know, it's like you say.

I dreamed of something, and then...

and then I made it happen.

No. What I say is stop dreaming.

Yeah.

Well, I guess, you know... I guess

we're talking about the same thing,

But maybe getting at it

in a different way.

Like, I start with a dream,

and then make a reality.

No, why do you always

starting with the dream?

- Hi.

- Hello.

- Hi, how are you?

- Good, good.

- You look great.

- Thank you.

- You look great.

- Thank you.

You, too.

- Thank you.

- Been working out?

- Yeah. A little bit.

- Yeah.

I'm so sorry that you came out

all this way. He'll...

No, that's fine. It was

a really lovely night. Thanks.

- Thanks very much.

- Yeah.

Just when you thought you were

a million miles away from trouble.

- Yeah.

- All right.

- Have a good night.

- Good night.

So, it's supposed to be a seven hour

drive, but I think I did it in five.

I don't see a cop the whole way,

and then I get pulled over

for gliding through a stop sign

half a block away. Can you believe it?

I don't think I've ever seen you

not in your workout clothes before.

- You've seen me not in workout clothes.

- You know... you know what I mean.

So, where is this kettle bell guru?

Can I meet him?

- Hello!

- You bring criminals to this house!

Mr. Volkov, I'm Trevor's

business partner. I own 50%.

I don't know if he's gotten into the whole

Power 4 Life philosophy with you guys.

Yes. He told me he would like me

to lead kettle bell seminar

while yogis are levitating in one room

and psychiatrists are sitting on the couch.

Well, the philosophy, is kind of...

It's kind of bullshit, but...

Before I married Erin, I was...

I dated a Mexican woman.

I dated a Chinese woman, a black woman,

but never at the same time... you know.

But if Trevor didn't believe

that stuff, I mean, all of it,

the business wouldn't work,

and that's what makes him amazing.

Well, he's a poet.

Let's not forget I founded this business,

and I built it from nothing.

Look, he's basically like a Zen master.

- Really? Do you study Eastern thought?

- No, not beyond the lame...

Actually, this is weird. I was thinking

about this on the drive up.

Did you guys only notice that pretty much

only men are Zen masters?

No, no, that's not true. Think about,

like, Pema Chodron for example.

Whatever. That's like a female

bodybuilder or arm wrestler.

- I mean, it's... right on, you go, girl.

- Kat. Kat.

- No one's really gonna know who...

- You're really... you're talking nonsense.

- It's adorable, but it's not...

- Wait, no. Trevor, seriously.

It's like, this... this idea is that

everything is just gonna roll off of you.

You know, that... that you're gonna

beat the world at its own game

by never letting yourself

get angry or sad.

To me, it's like, only a guy would think

that that was an awesome idea.

Do you... do you want some more?

There's plenty.

Hell, yes. Yes.

Yeah, it's so good. Thank you.

- So, he's your boyfriend?

- No.

No, no. We're strictly business now.

I would... I'd call him my ex-boyfriend,

but even that feels generous.
