I've had a good life.

- You know what?

I better get out there.

- Oh yeah. It's 10:05.

- Yeah. The tide is

coming in too.

Alright, another shot here.

[Listens to message

on answering machine]

Hey Eli, it's Chloe.

So hey, the director got

excited about the color

of the changing leaves

and decided to

change the

commercial to a

Sunday drive

through the forest.

So, sorry you spent all

day out there for nothing.

I mean, don't worry

you'll still get

paid and all.

I would've called you

on your cell phone,

but you don't

have a cell phone.

But yeah, sorry about

all of the food

in the kitchen.

That's for the

shoot tomorrow,

so don't eat it. Bye.

- Welcome to the world

of the unbelievable.

Join us as we explore

the fascinating world

of soap film

and all its

splendid charms

We have replaced a

standard hand-held

magnifier with a

video camera

in order to capture the

natural, unfettered

beauty unique to soap film.

[Turns off video]

.H6y-

I haven't seen you

in a while.

I was starting to think

you didn't live here anymore.

- Thanks.

- How's it going?

OK. I guess

- Are you collecting

stuffed animals now?

- No.

These are for

a new project.

I'm going to make

things with them.

I realized today that I

totally need to change

what I'm doing

with my life.

- Ah. I know

what you mean.

I think I had one

of those days too.

- Have you, uhh.

Umm.

Never mind.

.H6y-

Huh?

- Nothing

- Have you ever

had your heart broken?

- Yeah. I think so.

- How long does it last?

And how long does

it take to get better?

- I don't know.

I mean, it depends,

I guess.

Sometimes I think it

might just last forever.

- I hope not.

- Umm. Hey.

You want to go get

lunch tomorrow?

There's this really

great Thai place

I was planning

ongoing to.

- Maybe.

I like Thai food.
