The One I Love Page #2

---

and you stormed out.

We didn't make up.

Are you okay?

I'm fine, are you okay? I'm...

Okay, Mr. Hangover.

I think it's time

for some food. Huh?

Let's get something

in your stomach.

You're kind of freaking me out

a little bit, Sophie.

I've got to say...

Is that bacon?

Yeah.

You hate it

when I eat bacon.

What?

What's going on?

That's what

I'm trying to figure out.

I don't understand

why you're doing this.

No.

No, no, no, no.

No what?

This was...

There were plates... Hello?

What are you

talking about plates?

Hello, hello?

What are you... Ethan?

- Where'd you go?

- Where'd who go?

Ethan?

Hello?

Ethan?

There was bacon right there

on those plates...

What are you talking about?

Ethan, answer me.

You can't...

The smell of bacon...

You can't get the smell of bacon

out in five minutes.

- There was bacon...

- What about bacon?

Right here.

There was bacon here.

Why are you acting like this?

Sh*t. Sophie, Sophie.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Sophie, Sophie...

- What?

- I'm sorry.

- What?

- I'm sorry, just wait.

I'm spazzing out

in there, I know,

but something

f***ing weird

like Twilight Zone sh*t

is going on here,

and I'm trying to get

a handle on it, okay?

Last night

we had a nice dinner.

We had a blast together, right?

- Yes.

- Okay.

Then, we smoked some pot.

I fell asleep on the couch.

Next thing I know,

you woke me up

claiming that we had

just had sex together.

Because we did!

Okay. I came here.

Nobody was here.

I fell asleep on this couch

and I woke up

to you snuggling me.

What? What are you

talking about?

No, I didn't.

That's crazy to me

that you would deny that, okay?

- I didn't.

- Exactly.

Crazy just like me denying

that I had slept with you.

You know what I'm saying?

We had two completely separate

experiences with each other

that neither of us remembers, and...

Hang on a second. I'm going to

go in there by myself, okay?

Why?

You just stay here for like

30 seconds.

- Don't move.

- Ethan!

Hello'?

Hey, Babe.

Can you hand me a towel?

You're in that shower.

I just handed you a towel.

Okay, you know what,

I'm not even mad any more.

Now you're just scaring me,

and I don't understand

why you're doing this.

Go, go see for yourself, Sophie.

Be careful.

Hey, where you been all morning'?

Hello, Sophie.

I was just walking.

Oh, yeah.

It's really nice out, huh?

It's actually

a little bright in here.

Do you mind

if I close these?

Mmm-mmm.

The morning sun here

is insane.

Give me a hug.

Sorry. I'm a little sweaty.

That's okay.

Come on.

Sophie.

Soph?

F*** this.

You're kidding me!

What the f***?

Sophie?

Oh my God!

Hey, are you okay?

You're in there.

It's you.

You're exercising.

What is happening?

I don't know.

This is so crazy.

Did that really happen?

I mean, did that, was that...

I just don't...

I don't understand.

Is it another dimension,

like when you go

through the door,

is it another plane

of existence or...

I don't know.

I've no clue.

I think we need to just say

some weird sh*t happened.

We compartmentalize it.

There was a cosmic

aberration of some sort...

- Yeah, yeah. Move on.

- And we go home.

We don't talk

about this again,

and we just stop

thinking about it.

Okay.

- Yeah. We could move on.

- Done.

Oh my God, I can't

stop thinking about it.

Can you?

We're just going to

have to just...

I guess time, you know...

I'm not going to be able to

stop thinking about this, Ethan.

Well, what else can we do?

I mean what are we, what are

we going to do, you know?

Well, I mean, there's the...

There's the crazy thing

to do which is...

What?

Which is to, you know,

explore it further.

Explore it further?

I know you only had

a little bit of it...

Yeah. I was there for

like three seconds.

I know. And I,

but I had a whole evening...

In that house,

and I have to say,

I know I sound like

a crazy person right now,

but I have to say

it was kind of magical.

- Well...

- It was...

But don't go overboard

with the whole magic

of what happened there

because I know what you

did in there, okay?

All right. That's not

what I'm talking about.

I'm not talking about

that kind of magic.

There was a rush.

It was exciting.

I felt happy.

And it wasn't just that.

It wasn't just the time

in the guest house.

We had a great time

in the main house.

Yes, we did.

We had a good time.

It wasn't just the weed.

I mean we were connecting,

we were talking,

we were happy.

we were... Happy.

Yes.

We also had a fantastic time

when we did ecstasy at Lalapalooza,

but we're not going to do that

every day of our lives

because you die...

- Right.

- Okay?

There's a question

of our safety here.

Yeah. But I didn't feel

like it was dangerous.

I didn't feel...

I felt safe.

I didn't feel dangerous, either.

I felt like I was with you.

This is something that we've

been talking about in therapy...

Exploring new options,

creating a new relationship...

Not going back to the past

and re-creating

old things that happened

but starting

with new things.

Yeah. Point taken.

I know that this is...

I didn't imagine

this son of...

- extreme.

- new thing.

Absolutely, but...

I imagined like

horseback riding

with a little satchel of wine,

you know?

Not exploring other dimensions

in some weird version of

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

What if this is something

that I want to do?

You want to go back'?

I want to help

our relationship.

So... A little weird

to say this,

but I'm struggling

a little bit with the fact

that you slept with

the other me last night.

Yeah, but I thought

it was you.

I know. I'm not mad

or blaming you.

I just like...

I'd be lying if I, you know,

didn't say I was a little jealous,

I guess.

All right.

I understand,

but obviously I would never

knowingly cheat on you.

So it seems like it only works

if we go in one at a time.

Correct.

So I guess we'll just figure out

who wants to go in there first

I'll be out in a minute,

sweetheart

Okay, I'm here.

That's good.

Hey, is that bacon okay'?

It's been sitting out

for awhile.

It's good.

Good.

Where have you been

all morning?

Hanging out, you know.

Cool.

I missed you.

You missed me'?

Of course.

Come sit with me.

Okay.

So...

So...

Isn't it crazy to think

that we're actually married?

I guess so.

We are husband and wife.

- I know.

- Yeah.

I love it.

How long have you been

here, by the way?

Since we came yesterday, silly.

No, I mean,

in the guest house.

Since we slept here

last night.

Uh-oh. Someone's in detective mode.

Sorry. I didn't mean to be.

That's okay.

I don't mind.

Have you explored

the grounds very much?

I think I have

a pretty good sense of it.

It's so pretty here,

isn't it?

It is. Would you like to go on

a walk with me?

Not really right now,

but you're welcome

to go on a walk.

It's your vacation, too.

Okay.

I'll see you

in a little bit, Sophie.

Okay, Ethan.

Whoa!
