Okay, good.

Okay, I got it.

Wow.

Okay.

(both moaning)

- Oh, sorry.

Wait a second.

(squeals)

Oh, sh*t.

I squealed.

Sorry.

(sighing and moaning)

- Did you...

okay.

- Yeah, sorry.

That was...

it wasn't supposed to be

that fast.

- Oh, good.

- I can... I can help, uh...

- No, it's okay.

- Finish for you, if you want.

- Oh, no.

Thank you.

- You sure?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- Ow, you're on my hair.

- Sorry.

- All right, um...

Well...

You want to snuggle?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- Go for it.

- Okay.

- Maybe not that close.

- We should get some...

we should get some water too

before we go to sleep.

- Okay.

- Good night.

Thank you.

(birds chirping)

(ferry horn blows)

(sighs)

- She's here, she's here,

she's here, she's here.

Get up, get up, get up, get up.

Oh, ew!

Oh, sh*t.

F***.

Where'd it go?

Where'd it go?

Where'd it go?

Where'd it go?

Okay, you have to get up.

Iris is in the driveway.

Dude, she's in the driveway.

Give me some tissues.

Give me some tissue.

Come on.

Okay.

Very important, okay?

She cannot know about this.

I am running or something.

You are sleeping.

And we're good, okay?

Just...

- What?

- Jack?

What the f*** is that?

- Hey, Bean.

- Oh, my God.

- What's up?

- Puppet?

What the f***?

Oh, my goodness!

What are you doing here?

- Oh.

- Oh, it's so nice to see you.

I didn't know

you were going to be here.

- Yeah, it's a long story.

- Did you just wake up?

You okay?

These are cute.

These are really...

- Holy cow!

- And you've met...

oh, Jesus Christ.

- What?

- What have you come as?

- I was on a run.

- Here she is.

- Hannah showed me

a great path, and...

- Jane Fonda.

- Oh, cut it out.

- Oh, yummy.

You're sweaty.

- Oh, what are you doing here?

What is going on?

- Did you meet my sister?

I've been wanting you

to meet her.

- I did.

We met last night.

Yes, we did.

- How nice is this?

I've been wanting you guys

to meet for so long.

Haven't I been talking about it?

And it's weird.

It's weird that you haven't met,

so I love it.

- I know.

It's crazy.

How... what... why are you...

how did the...

what are you doing here?

- I got off work.

I just was, like...

they moved a shoot

and then axed another one,

so I was, like, "Peace out.

I'm gonna go

and annoy my friend."

- That's so great!

- This is amazing

that she's here as well.

- I know.

You were like, "Go up

for a solo sabbatical except"...

- I know.

I know.

You're supposed

to have alone time,

and now you're, like,

double whammy!

(laughs)

- Two of them here.

- That was a big run.

- Yeah, it was really good.

- Yeah.

I need to pee.

I'm literally

gonna pee my pants.

I got you provisions and stuff.

I love that you're here.

Where did you guys sleep?

- That was a bit much.

It's, like, pouring off

your head.

- So... yeah.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- Took my room.

- I hate my room.

- You do hate your room.

Don't be weird

and change the sheets.

It's fine.

- I broke up with Pam.

- What?

Holy sh*t.

Why...

when?

- A couple of days ago.

I got up here yesterday.

I hitchhiked up.

- You didn't hitchhike up.

Please don't hitchhike.

It's so dangerous.

(sighs)

Sh*t.

- I had no idea that...

are you all right?

Please don't change

the sheets.

- I want to change the sheets.

- Don't change the sheets.

- Let me change the sheets.

I want to change the sheets.

- I want to talk to you about...

I had no idea you guys

were having trouble.

Hannah.

(whispers)

Why didn't you call me?

- I don't know;

I knew we were in trouble

when we weren't

being physical anymore.

But, I mean,

that was totally my fault.

I was just so f***ing angry

with her all the time.

- Yeah, of course you were.

She's suffocating.

- No.

Well, she was suffocating.

- She was suffocating.

- No, but it was me too.

It was because

I was buying in to this...

I was...

what did I say to you

last night?

I had a good metaphor

for it last night.

- Did you guys talk

about this last night?

- Yes, I was shitfaced,

and I was

pouring out my heart.

- You know what?

I am gonna need some herbs.

Would you mind getting something

from the garden?

- Do you need it right now,

or do you want to...

- It would be great

so that it could marinate.

- What?

- I do feel like sooner

rather than later would be good,

just so they can marinate.

- Okay.

Yeah, yeah.

Um, but I want to know...

I want to know what the...

- I'll remember where I was.

- I didn't know any of this,

what the breaking point...

- It's not the kind of stuff

you talk about.

- I know.

- Yeah.

- All right,

what do you want me to do?

- Um, real quick.

I've been thinking,

since the bottle of tequila

was pretty much empty,

I think the way we pitch it is,

you were here drinking,

and I came in, and we talked

for, like, 20 minutes.

Then you went to bed.

I stayed up

finishing the tequila.

And then that way, it's like,

we hung out a little bit

but not so much

that it's suspicious.

You know what I'm saying?

Is that cool with you?

- What are you talking about?

I mean, seriously,

what are you talking about?

- Okay,

don't you think we both agree

it's better

if Iris just doesn't know?

- Why?

- Because she's your sister,

and I'm her best friend...

- Yeah?

- And it's weird.

- Weird, what?

Well, it's weird

that we had sex.

I mean, I'm not particularly

proud of it.

But I don't think

she would give a sh*t.

- What do you mean

you're not proud of it?

- Come on.

Whatever, anyway, go ahead.

You want me to make up a story

to throw her off the track

so that she doesn't know

that we had sex?

- That sounds terrible

when you say it like that.

- Right.

- Okay?

- Do you have a thing

for my sister?

- I knew

you were gonna say this.

This is why I didn't want

to say anything.

I do not have a thing

for your sister.

- You have a thing

for my sister.

- I don't have a thing

for your sister.

Here's the deal.

- Okay.

- I think it would be bad

for all of us

if Iris knows about this.

I'm not just thinking...

- You are freaking me out

on so many levels right now.

- You don't think she'd be upset

if you told her we had sex?

- I don't think

she would give a sh*t, no.

- Wow.

- I hate to break it to you...

(door clicking)

- Hi!

- Hey!

I've got sage as well.

I don't know if that's any good.

- Uh, sage is great actually.

Perfect.

Thank you.

- So what was the point when...

what was it

when you decided that...

- You know what? I don't want

to talk about it anymore.

- No.

But I haven't heard any of it.

- I'm starting to get

so irritable,

because it's just

a bad topic.

- Let's listen to some music.

Why don't we do that?

- I'll put some music on.

- Yeah, let's do music.
