When You Wake Up Page #6

Synopsis: The singer called Punk is no longer of much interest to anyone. After his brush with fame, it only took a few years of drugs and alcohol to reach rock bottom. After yet another small town concert, Punk ends up spending the night backstage, drunk and alone. When he opens his eyes in the morning, he sees a little girl, who introduces herself as his daughter. Two lost souls set out on a trip together - a trip which will not only change their lives, but will also bring them together to appreciate the joy it brings.

- Bye, Mom, thanks, see you.

- Bye. See you!

So...

That's it.

I hope your momma will be back already.

Probably.

I'll say.

Oh, right, at first I was

a little rude with you.

No big deal.

Yeah, everything's OK?

Sorry.

But we had a good time, didn't we?

We did...

Oh, right, thanks for...

...for the present.

I'll wear it.

But, see, I never did come up

with anything to give you.

Well...

...that song was for me? Or

was it for someone else?

Oh, that...

Yeah, for you, for you, alright.

I'll try to finish it up, or...

Well I guess I'll be going.

Yeah...

Yeah...

Oh, that door, just a sec.

Well...

...so I guess I'll see you then.

Yeah...

Alright, go on.

What are you sitting here for?

She's not home again.

- Momma's not home again?

- Mhm...

Oh, I found this in the car.

Yeah, I left it there by mistake.

What are you going to do now?

What choice do I have?

I'll wait for Momma.

Well, what would you do without me, huh?

Kid?

Mhm.

Thank you.

It's nice to have you here.

There's one person here in this hall...

...who is very, very important to me and...

...who I'd like to thank.

You know who you are.

In the bottom of the sea

I'll only leave what hurts

every day and night

In the yellow sun, I'll

only leave what's important

I'll turn off my thoughts and close the

door to keep out all kinds of troubles

From now on, I'm different,

not the same as I was before

The same as I was before,

the same as I was before

Alone on an island

In the light of the moon

When no one is looking

No one is listening

No one is looking

Where you are, always alone

Happy in my heart

When no one is looking

No one is looking where you are

I'll throw away the keys, board up the

windows from an unacquainted friend

I'll just leave a letter, you'll

feel it, really, I am important

I hope then the new day will

wake up with a smile on its lips

Because from now on, I'm different,

not the same as I was before

Not the same as I was before

The same as I was before

Yeah!

Alone on an island

In the light of the moon

When no one is looking

No one is listening

No one is looking...

...where you are, always alone

Happy in my heart...

What do you think, it's not too loud?

What, are the neighbors complaining?

Not the neighbors. You're being detained

for 48 hours as a child abduction suspect.

What... what child?

Abduction of what child?

Where are we going?

Pals, what are you doing?

We're not pals to you, we're officers.

- Let me go, let me go...

- Punk!

- Let me go... Gerda!

- Dad! Dad!

- Gerda! Let her go! I'm her father!

- Let him go!

He didn't do anything...

- Let me go!

- Gerda, let's go let's go.

Dad!

- Gerda... Where are you taking her?

- Dad, they're hurting me!

- Gerda!

- lt'd be better if you didn't resist.

We're working.

Thank you, everyone.

Thank you.

You...

Come in.

Gerda, Gerdut...

Momma...

God, come over here. Come on, come on.

How are you, my little

baby, how are you, huh?

Where have you been?

Can you even imagine how

worried I was about you, huh?

Why don't you both sit down over here.

Both of you.

It'll be more comfortable.

L...

You know, Gytis, so much happened to me

during those couple of days, you know...

Punk, do you even get why you're here?

They locked me up here

for no reason at all.

None at all!

They just came in the middle of the concert, got

us together, cuffed me and locked me up here.

So I don't get it, you're like

taking the place of her mother?

Well... yeah.

Yeah.

Every kid wants to have a mom or a dad.

And at home we let ourselves

call each other that.

Mm. I see.

So basically, when we found her, it turned out

during the initial interview that she wasn't hurt.

Gerda, really?

Everything's alright?

- Yes, Momma, everything's fine.

- Where were you, huh?

We found her with a certain person.

Do you recognize him?

Gerda...

You, you remember there

was that girl Aist, huh?

- Yeah, sure.

- Remember? 10 years ago.

- I remember.

- Yeah, yeah...

...the one where we were in

love with each other and...

...then her parents took her away and

we broke up all unhappy and then...

imagine, Gytis...

...l... l just found out that...

...that she has a little

girl and I'm the father.

And suddenly-boom - she's right here...

Gerda's her name.

She's, she's amazing.

Gytis, if only you could see

her, what she looks like...

She's exactly like me.

She's so, so sweet and...

...and so pretty, charismatic,

she can dance and she found that tractor...

Punk, she's not your daughter.

So you recognize him, right?

Well, yes, yes, that's...

That's... my ex-boyfriend, Punk.

- Punk?

- I mean...

...his name is Laimis.

Momma...

...you were right about him.

He really is nice.

Gerda, but what I told you about him doesn't

mean that you can go and run away from home.

Sweetie, do you understand - that was a

nice story and that's all, nothing else.

What story?

With that girl... she ran

away from the orphanage.

Look.

- What are you, stupid?

- Now you're a real star.

I don't know what you've cooked up,

but you, old man, are in deep sh*t.

You're being charged with a girl's abduction,

captivity, exploitation, I don't know what else...

it's on the record.

Gytis, it... it's bull.

It's total bull!

And the story is that...

...me and Gerda are really

good friends, right?

And Gerda is my favorite girl in the world.

And one day, that little girl asked me

what happens when two people fall in love.

And I told her about one

person who is very dear to me.

This person.

I told her about what we used to do,

where we used to go, right, Gerda?

But I never would have believed

that you could do this.

You have to understand - this

girl has some problems...

You... you know I'm not lying, don't you?

You believe me, right?

I believe you, but the

cops see it differently.

Gytis, don't leave me, alright...

Gytis, don't leave me, huh...

We'll do something together, you

know you can, you always save me...

- Gytis... I'm begging you, work something out...

- I'll try. But I can't promise.

I don't know where to begin.

I always used to get you out of

all kinds of garbage, but...

- ...this situation is... I'll try.

- So do it again now...

I'll try.

Gytis, don't forget, alright?

But I can't promise.

She tends to identify with things

that don't exist in reality.

What?

She tends to identify with what

doesn't exist in reality, understand?

Of course I understand.

Like, she identified with

that story that you told her.

Well, yeah.

Turns out she did.

Gerda, honey, tell me, you left home

because you wanted to find him. Right?

Momma, please, don't be angry with me...

I, well, I just wanted to have the

kind of dad that you talked about.

And you, sir, don't be angry with him.

Let him go.

It's me, this is all because of me.

He's not guilty.

I'm sorry.

It's nothing. Don't apologize.

You don't have to apologize, baby.

You understand that everything is fine.
