01x05 - Let's Do It Again

[bunniefuu]

We accept the setbacks that life brings.

We let go of our rage, sadness and fears
in order to confront them.

We trust in future encounters.

We cast a hopeful, resolute gaze forward.

Now we open the wine and sit normally,
because my a*s hurts.

Okay.

Okay, I also need a glass of wine.
You're right.

It's what it is.

My ob-gyn said
that my chances are minimal.

Something to do with timing
and a hormone specialist.

I can't even think about it.

You don't have to.

Having kids is awful anyway.

Bella, seriously?

I mean, honestly, it's like

sh1tting out a watermelon.

Right?

Yeah…

Pretty much, yeah.

You've got to make
the best of what life gives you.

And life has given you us two as friends.

And it's given us three the game tonight.

Don't you want to come after all?

Okay.

-Thank you for coming.
-Of course. I won't leave you here alone.

Why are there so many people here?

I told you Siena included more people.

-Well, I like what I see.
-Me too.

Come on, Paul, it'll be great.

Come on.

Look. There.

-Yes.
-He's really going for it.

It's about creating
a real intense experience here.

-It usually goes on over several days.
-Cool.

-Valentin, hello.
-Hey.

-How's it going?
-Great to see you.

-Welcome.
-Thank you.

-Is Julie here too?
-Yeah.

Everything okay?

Yeah, I'm just not in the mood today.

Yeah, and I didn't want Julie to feel like
she should stay home with me.

I understand.

You know what?

Let's get a drink, mingle,
nice and relaxed.

I'll think of something. Come on.

My lovely friends,
I'm so happy that you are all here.

Time to draw keys.

And I thought, to keep things exciting,

the women could throw their keys
in the bowl, and the men get to draw.

So take out your keys!

Now it's the men's turn to draw.

Heart.

Heart.

Tom, would you like to begin?

Valentin!

How nice. Those are mine.

You okay?

Sure I am.

Who is the lucky woman?

Hey, chica!

Comrade Leo.

Mine.

Paul, it's your turn.

Come on.

-That's mine.
-Yeah

So, dears, there aren't many keys left.

So, folks, there are only two keys left
in the bowl.

Who wants to draw?

I hope for both our sakes
I get the dark-haired one.

Those are mine.

Yeah.

The game is the game, right?

The game is the game. Yeah.

Hey.

I hit the jackpot.

Everyone's left.

I just wanted to say thank you.

-You really saved me.
-You saved me.

I really wasn't feeling it either today.

Really?

-I'm on my period.
-I get it.

I save that kind of sex
for people I know a little better.

I find it really admirable
how open you are.

What about you?

Why don't you want to play today?

I love Julie.

My life with her just feels so right,
always has.

But lately,
there's been this dissatisfaction.

A longing that I can't put a name to.

A yearning?

-I don't even know him.
-Him?

Thoughts like that
can be quite intimidating.

Mila.

We got to know each other while traveling

and I thought
it had to do with everything but her.

Then I thought, "What a waste
to be looking for excuses

for liking someone with all my heart."

That sounds nice…

but also kind of scary.

You can be curious without needing
an answer right away.

Go ahead. I'll get us something to drink.

Okay.

-Do you ride?
-Yes.

I have this wild passion for horses.

-They're beautiful animals.
-Yeah, totally.

-And you?
-I did. As a teenager.

I loved it.

No idea if I could still do it.

I'd probably fall off.

I don't think so.

I'm sure you'd look great anywhere.

Thank you.

Here we are.

In front of your house.

Where I'm dropping you off.

Which is a smart decision.

Yes, very smart.

I don't know if we have ever shaken hands.

Pretty weird, right?

Somehow…

This is still okay, isn't it?

-We are just playing the game.
-Yes.

-Oh, I'm sorry about that.
-I'm not.

We're not breaking the rules?

We're following the rules.

Can I use my fingers?

-Sure.
-Yeah?

Yes, yes, yes!

Whoa. What are you doing there?

I'm…

Sorry, I wanted to play with your G-spot.

Okay, then…

-Go for it.
-Yeah?

-Yeah.
-Yeah?

Oh, God.

-Do you want to take the reins?
-What do you mean?

Well…

You can take control.

I'm in control?

If you like.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Give me a minute.

Yes. A taxi to 41 Gardener Street.

Thank you.

-Hey.
-Hi, Mom!

-You still watching that?
-No, it just finished.

-How was your thing?
-Good.

And where's Dad?

He's still at the party.

{\an8}Is that for Bina Delara's wedding?

-If I get married, I'll do it like that.
-You've got plenty of time for that.

You guys can find out what you want,
before you even think about marriage.

You married Dad at 18.

Well, you know…

Looking back now, I think
maybe I'd have done things differently.

You know, if you marry so young,
you don't know if you've missed out.

Obviously I was really lucky
with your dad.

Anyway, you two
will be my maids of honor for sure.

Thanks for the lovely evening

I almost forgot.

Pancakes.

Haven't had these in ages.

You like them so much.

And how was your evening?

Fine.

SAMU
Can we see each other?

ANNA
I'll be in my office in a minute…

Yours?

Also nice.

Better go get ready.

Yesterday was nice.

Julie?

-What?
-Darling, what…

-Is everything all right?
-Yes. Yeah, sure.

I just feel so inspired right now.

Or electrified. I can't describe it.

It's everything all at once.

Anyway, I just feel so like myself.

Okay.

Sounds good.

Fantastic.

I can't talk right now, sorry.

Is it okay if we talk later?

Sure.

Thank you.

Claudel, come here.

Good girl.

Sorry about the other day… Fancy dinner?

SEBASTIAN
I thought you'd never ask! :]

Say…

are you hungry?

It's a bit early, isn't it?

I thought
we could have a little appetizer.

The thing I told you about yesterday.

Sounds tempting.

I'll hurry, okay?

Can I help you?

No. This Delara wedding
is driving me up the wall.

The bride wants all this fancy stuff
and all at the last minute.

Weddings are a status symbol
that exacerbate inequality.

-Come on, Leo.
-She can shove it up her a*s.

This is a massive opportunity for us.

A celebrity wedding.

You know what it means for us,
if we rock it?

Hold up.

That's what people pay you for a wedding?

As I said, it's a celebrity wedding.
These people are on another level.

But do you know
what doors this could open for us?

-If we can land it, it'll be huge.
-It's sick.

Sorry?

Sorry, that kind of money
makes me lose my appetite.

Yesterday was nice. Thanks for…

Dear Julie, last night with you was

NEW MESSAGE

PAUL
Can't stop thinking about you.

Hey.

You must be really bad at charades.

-The absolute worst.
-Oh well.

But I'd like to make it up to you.

Okay.

A surprise.

Do you trust me?

Without knowing what it is?

Okay, surprise me.
