When you graduate, you have all these

ideas about what your life will look like.

Then you wake up one day and you're 40.

[laughs] Then I'd rather

have the number 18.

How's this look on me?

Very nice.

Maybe there's one for me to wear?

Oh, right. No, it was the last

in your size, and I was a bit wet, so

- But you work here, right?

- Yeah, I'm working.

Yeah

Okay, um

And in the back?

I just checked

and it looks like we're out of stock

But I can help with

another outfit if you want.

But that's the one I've wanted,

and fantasized about.

Okay. [chuckles]

So, thanks a lot.

[laughs gently] Thank you.

Uh, Amelia,

do you mind if we chat in private?

Replacing me?

On my birthday?

- Yeah, I don't know what to do...

- No, no

- I don't want to do it.

- Then I'm quitting.

- What? No, come on.

- I think that it might be time so...

Time for cake, Amelia.

I need to move on from this job anyway,

so this was perfect timing.

[boss] Amelia, stop.

I don't want it to be like this.

- Please, let's talk about it.

Well, I hope you enjoy your party.

[laughs gently] For sure.

- Thanks.

You too.

Wow.

I went to her concert last year.

She's awesome.

Do you know each other?

[sighs] You could say that.

[man] Is it someone's birthday?

- Yeah, it's mine.

- Mine too.

And yeah.

[Amelia] We were star friends forever

her and I.

That's what we used to say

because we shared a birthday.

[laughs]

One year we built a time capsule.

- [man] What are you doing?

- Please go away.

- [Arez] What's a time capsule?

- [Amelia] A tin that you filled with stuff

and then we wrote our deepest wishes

on a piece of paper.

And then we buried it

near the ski slope on the mountain.

- So what next?

- We were gonna open it once we turned 18.

[both chuckle]

Okay, well, did you?

Mm-mm. [laughs gently]

- Why not?

- We weren't hanging out anymore,

and, you know, when you're 18

you have different priorities. [laughs]

Oh, I remember finally turning 18.

That was such a great party.

[sighs]

What if you could turn 18 again?

[both chuckle]

[blows raspberry]

- Amelia

- Mm?

I think you should stop

and get some fresh air.

Um

Yeah.

I've put together a tape of all your

birthdays from when you were one year old!

Thank you. But

how did you do all this? You

JUNE 2002

MONDAY

[Dad] Amelia?

[man 1 on radio] Sweden did

what many thought impossible,

won and advanced to the second round

against Senegal,

after a 1-1 game against Argentina

in a classic match

in Swedish football history.

[man 2 on radio] It's definitely

among the most, uh, exciting

THE SKBERGA POSexperience that I've had

because this is the most

[fly buzzing]

- [buzzing stops]

- [chattering on radio continues]

[whimsical music continues]

Why do you guys look so young?

That's sweet of you, but if you want

more money, you should just say so.

I told you it wasn't enough.

THURSDAY JUNE 13TH 2002

Is she okay?

[Mom] Huh, let me see

She doesn't have a fever.

Eat, so you can get to school on time.

You can't skip school

just because it's your birthday, you know.

[sighs]

- [Mom] What should we get her?

- [Dad] That's a good question.

[chatting continues]

- [dinging]

- Mom] Oh!

[footsteps approaching]

[sighs]

- [Dad] How are you?

- [girl] Good, thanks.

- [girl] Is Amelia ready?

- [Dad] Let me check.

[Dad] Amelia! Moa's here!

[Moa] Um, we're doing a presentation

on Hinduism. That'll be

Hi! Congrats! [laughing]

Oh my God, 18!

- Moa?

- [laughs] Okay? Who put you up to this?

You can't look like this.

It's your birthday today.

God, what would Max say?

No, let's find something fun. Come on.

- [whimsical music continues]

- [kids yelling]

My God, stop pulling it.

You look great.

I've got a little

birthday present for you.

I looked everywhere

but this one is so you,

so I really think you'll like it.

Here, guess what it is.

I mean, you don't have to guess,

but it's fun, so

It's the rose flask you got me.

Wait, what? Did Max tell you that? Ugh

I told him not to say anything.

What a boring fool.

How did he say something?

I'm pretty sure you

mentioned the flask before.

God, you mean like dj vu?

God, that's like the worst.

It's happened to me too.

At least now you can party in style

tonight. Isn't it a sick present?

Don't you like it?

Hello?

- Amelia, can you hear me?

- What?

- Isn't it the best present?

- Yeah.

You know, it could be

fun to have at the party tonight.

It's going to be the party of the year.

Everyone is going to be there. Patrik

You know, Patrik,

who's studying to be a foreman.

He's going to be there.

[squeaks excitedly]

You know who I mean.

Foreman Patrik?

Oh yeah. And Max spoke with Gabbe

in natural science class...

Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

Don't you notice

anything different about me?

What?

Do I look like any older?

Older? Amelia, you're one day older.

That is total nonsense.

What is happening?

What?

The last thing I remember

is being hit by a truck.

Could I actually be in a coma?

This could be me seeing my life

flash before my eyes because I'm dying.

- Am I dying, Moa?

- Amelia, listen

I want you to blow in my face.

[exhales deeply]

[sniffs] Okay, you're not drunk, right?

No.

Are you sniffing paint?

- No.

- Are you?

What?

- No?

- No.

- You're not?

- No.

No. Okay, here. Have some gum at least.

Okay, there you go.

Mm.

[music fades]

You know what? You actually

kind of sound different today.

- [Amelia] Uh-huh?

- Like, more grown up.

[Moa] So, I'm wearing that on top.

And then I have my denim skirt.

You know, the long one.

And then, a corset on top.

Oh, and I've cut some slits from here

all the way to here.

- [boy] Amelia.

- Won't that look good?

["Hot in Herre" playing]

Hot in

So hot in herre

So hot in

Uh Oh!

- Happy birthday, babe.

- Max. [chuckles softly]

Yeah? [laughs]

- We were a couple.

- [music fades]

- Yeah, uh, you mean we "are"?

- Mm.

[laughs]

[whimsical music playing]

[inaudible]

[Moa] Hurry up, they have

that talent show in the auditorium.

["The Ketchup Song" playing]

Nana-na, nanana, nanana-nananana-na!

Nana-na, nanana, nanana-nanana

Ya-i-ya-i-ya-i

Aserej-ja-dej

De jebe tu de jebere

Good song. You like it?

[Moa] Oh yeah. Here, look.

- This wasn't easy to get. That's for sure.

- [Max chuckles]

- Seriously?

- It was really difficult.

- I had to show them my boobs to get it.

- Ew.

No, I'm kidding. Not this time.

It would have been cheaper

if I had shown my boobs though.

- [students cheering]

- [Amelia] "Paris Hilto"?

- [girl 1] Good job!

- [Moa] What?

I couldn't use the same name

as "Paris Hilton".

But listen, it sounds a bit Finnish.

Like, "Hilto."

It says, "Finnish citizenship."

[Max snickers]

[students chattering]

[microphone feedback]

Hello? Hello. Hello. Hello.

So, someone from our drama class

is going to sing right now.

So, let's hear it for Fiona.

- [students groaning]

- [girl 2] Aw, her.

[drama teacher clapping]

- [girl 3] Let's leave.

- [girl 4] Yeah.

Come, let's go.

[boy] Boo!

[Max] Come on, sweetheart.

[Fiona playing soft acoustic version

of "Yours to Keep"]

Won't you call my private number

We can go away for the summer

- We can drive around

- [Moa] Amelia?

- [Max] Come on.

- With the top down

- [Moa] Hello, Amelia, are you coming?

- Yeah.

Stereo turned up loud

[chairs clattering]

Please, stay and listen.

Fiona has practiced a lot,

so please sit down again.

If you want to.

- Good luck, my love.

- Huh?

Bye.

God, I'm so nervous.

You have the presentation?

- What?

- The presentation on Hinduism?

Mm-hm. [laughing nervously]

- In your locker?

- Oh [laughs nervously]

Yeah, uh Amelia, please.

It's about to start. Here.

Okay, we absolutely can't fail this.

But I won't have any use for my grades.

In the western world,

we usually tend to think of time

as something that goes in a straight line.

And it Amelia.

Come. Um

Yeah, we tend to think of it as

moving from the past, through the present,

and continuing into the future.

Amelia

- There.

- I just Just read this?

- Right there.

- Okay.

"But Hindus believe

that time moves in cycles,

without a beginning or end."

"They believe in reincarnation,

rebirth, and"

"And getting another chance"

- Is that what's happened to me?

- What?

That I got another chance.

[laughing]

- You mean, at Skberga Gymnasium?

- ["Teenage Dirtbag" starting]

No, the The best time in my life.

[pop rock song playing]

Her name is Noelle

I have a dream about her

She rings my bell

I got gym class in half an hour

Oh, how she rocks

- In Keds and tube socks

- [tires screeching, horn honking]

- [Max] Idiot!

- [bike bell ringing]

But she doesn't know who I am

And she doesn't give a damn about me

- I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby

- [whooping]

[both whooping]

Yeah, I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby

- Listen to Iron Maiden, baby

- [song fades]

[tires screeching]

[Moa] Yep!

Okay. What do you want?

You can choose anything. It's on me.

- [Moa giggles]

- Ooh, you know what would be so nice?

Uh, a really good Aperol Spritz.

Mm. Mm. Mm.

Which one should I get?

Mm, orange.

Oh! So I'm going to blend red and white?

- No

- Get that.

Wish Paris Hilto good luck.

[laughing excitedly]

- Ooh!

- [Amelia laughs]

[both laughing]

There is no way this is going to work.

- [both laughing]

- No.

No.

[giggles]

[soft music playing]

[laughs awkwardly]

[Max] What?

- I just feel really good.

- [both laugh]

What do we do now? I paid like 500 bucks

for this frigging thing here.

Moa, we'll just get

moonshine from someone.

- Moonshine, sure.

- Uh, no.

- Yeah.

- No. No.

- Why not?

- Why not, Amelia?

Well, for one, then Moa would black out

again and need her stomach pumped.

- [laughs]

- Wait No, what? I can handle it.

- You will. I know you.

- How do you know that?

We'll all get too drunk too fast,

and there's methanol in moonshine.

- You can go blind.

- Whoa-whoa. Okay, Mom.

- Then we might as well cancel the party.

- I don't think so.

What, do you have a better idea?

Obviously. You won't need

your stomach pumped either.

I'm not getting my stomach pumped!

Stop saying that. It's not funny!

- [all laughing]

- Seriously, guys, stop now.

["Don't Let Me Get Me" Playing]

Don't support the team

I can't take direction

And my socks are never clean

Teachers dated me

- Stock taking.

- Hello?

What the hell are you doing?

Hey, stop!

I can't do nothing right

[Max] Now let's P-A-R-T-Y!

[Moa] You're f*cking awesome! Wow, sh*t

Go, go, go, go!

- [Moa squealing]

- staring back at me

I'm a hazard to myself

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

It's bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

- I wanna be somebody else

- [boy] For real, man.

- For your birthday?

[boy] From my dad.

[Max] Okay, yeah sure.

but take a look at this.

- Yeah.

- This one's smaller. Why would they...

Because they will be.

In the future, our phones will be

much smaller,

and they will be able to do much...

- Thanks for mansplaining, guys.

- [Gottfried] What did you say?

- "Mansplaining"?

- Remember where you heard it first.

Hey, Fiona.

- Hey?

- Hey.

Uh happy birthday to us, right?

[chuckles awkwardly] I guess.

I didn't remember

Or, I mean,

I didn't know you were going to be here.

Well, it really wasn't my idea, actually,

but, um, my friends thought we should.

Well, the more the merrier,

so I'm glad you're here.

You were great in the auditorium earlier.

[loud music continues]

You are kidding me.

What? No.

[Fiona chuckles awkwardly]

- Hi, love.

- Hey.

Come.

- Why were you speaking to her?

- I just wanted to check who invited her.

- I don't think it was anyone here.

- Whatever.

Why don't you and I

go somewhere more quiet?

[laughs nervously]

- Okay.

- Okay?

[muffled music continues]

- [soft piano music playing]

- [Max breathing heavily]

sh*t. [laughs]

That was

That was insane.

[laughs] Where did you learn that?

- Life won't get better than this moment.

- No.

This time, I'm gonna make

the most of every second of every day.

Just enjoy it.

Can you believe I got a second chance?

That we've been given a second chance?

[chuckles] Wait, what? What do you mean?

Maybe we could have a future.

You and I together.

Maybe I want all those things

that I didn't know I wanted.

Maybe I want a house.

Maybe I want to have kids with you.

- Maybe I want it all.

- Wait, wait No.

What is it they say? House, Volvo, dog.

Amelia, are you serious right now?

We're only 18.

Yeah, but

Excuse me.

- What are you doing?

- I need some air.

This got so deep. I don't know.

What? Okay.

Wait Uh.

f*ck. [groans]

Stop.

Max! Wait, stop. Where are you going?

Amelia, I'm sorry,

I can't handle something this serious.

It don't think this is

going to work for out me.

- Yes.

- No, it won't.

- Yes, it does.

- I think it's best if we take a break.

Uh

Are you dumping me?

Yeah.

No, this is not happening now.

This isn't happening for a few months.

You can't do it anyway,

so it doesn't matter.

Max, what are you doing?

You're still really in love with me!

Yeah, yeah, boys.

Your phones are cute, but check this out.

Maybe I should've picked

a different song or something.

Hey. Uh

- I uncovered our old time capsule.

- What?

I understand that this

might come out of the blue.

- You read my note?

- Of course not.

My wish came true,

the one I wrote on that paper,

- Hi, love.

Hey, hey. I was wondering

if you got your wish too. Did you?

- Why were you talking to her?

- You're drunk.

- I have been drink...

you'll regret this the rest of your life

- Mm.

- lf you don't just walk up and talk.

Or one day you'll wake up all old. And

- lonesome.

- Mm.

And Uh Could you maybe go

go first, and test the waters?

Please? I would have done it for you.

Yeah. Okay.

[rock music continues]

Hey, are you Patrik?

- What?

- Are you Patrik?

What? I can't hear you.

- I have to talk to you. Come on.

- Okay. Yeah.

Okay, one second.

- [muffled pop rock music continues]

- Yeah

Um [chuckles awkwardly]

How do I say this? So there's this friend,

a girl who really likes you.

Thinking about it, I'm pretty sure

you'd look like a great couple.

- [chuckles]

- Is that so?

Yeah.

For sure. She's just a little too shy

Whoa, stop!

Wha What are you doing?

I don't mean myself.

I thought you liked

I thought you'd like to.

No, no It's not me.

I'm talking about Moa.

Uh

What do you mean?

- Uh, sorry.

- You like me?

Um, everyone in Skberga's into you,

you know?

- [pop rock music fades]

- [whimsical music begins]

Can you say that again?

Which part?

Say it again, please.

Wha? Uh, everyone in Skberga's into you.

[melancholy music playing]

- [music fades]

- [pop rock music continues]

Moa.

Moa, wait. Wait, wait, wait.

It wasn't what it looked like.

- So what was it then?

- [Max] What happened?

- Nothing, everything's totally great.

- [hip-hop song starting]

If everything's great,

then tell Max about it.

Yeah.

Okay, um, Patrik kissed me.

- What? Foreman Patrik?

- Yeah, but it was barely for one second.

- I can't believe you'd do that.

- You can't be mad

because he was all over me, what did I do?

I didn't do anything.

I'm going home, we're done

Please, guys. Stop being so childish.

Can't we talk about this

like adults? Guys

- Max.

- [raindrops falling]

You can't leave now!

We're supposed to have fun!

- And it's my birthday!

- Are you serious?

[banging]

- Max, take it easy. Just breathe.

- [car alarm sounding]

["Mr. President" playing]

getting worse by the hour

I wrestled roaches

The size of rats in the shower

But don't cry, Mr. President

[music rises, then cuts off]

- [door banging]

- She is our daughter

She is our daughter

You are our daughter

And this day is for you

[melancholy piano music playing]

Oh, from good friends

and true friends

Good friends and true friends

[melancholy piano music continues]

Hi! Happy birthday!

18 years, how does it feel?

- Again.

- Ahhh, 18 years!

- Uh, sure.

- You must be excited.

- Hey, let's go.

- [acoustic "Yours to Keep" starts]

[students chattering]

Won't you call my private number

- We can go away for the summer

- Amelia?

- [Max] Come on.

- You guys go ahead. I'll catch up later.

We can drive around

With the top down

Stereo turned up loud

[guitar stops]

Whoa! [grunts]

[Amelia] Oh, sh*t.

[Fiona] Are you okay?

[teacher] Please, stay and listen.

Fiona has practiced a lot.

Need me to get the nurse?

No. No, I'm fine.

But can I say something?

- I have class soon.

- Please,

you may be the only one

who can fix the problem.

It might have something to do

with our time capsule.

Yeah?

Okay.

This is going to sound insane,

so I'll just say it.

I've gotten stuck in

some sort of time loop.

I know.

Uh

Maybe it was some kind

of gift from the universe,

to relive my 18th birthday.

But now I've experienced

the same day several times over and over,

and I don't understand how to move on.

[scoffs]

Yeah, that sounds crazy,

and like the plot of Groundhog Day.

Groundhog Day. The movie, you know?

The person's in a time loop and

relives the same day over and over again.

[Max] Moa, there she is.

[Moa] Hey,

our presentation is about to start!

Yeah, uh Give me a second.

Right, the presentation.

I'm excited, Amalia.

I mean, Amelia. Right.

- [clattering]

- Oh! Oh!

Uh

[Moa] Amelia, are you coming?

Hello?

She's out clubbing

Every night of the weekend

[Moa] Cheers!

- [Moa coughing]

- Oh f*ck, that's bad.

- [retching]

- [Moa shrieks]

[Max] Oh, sh*t!

- [retching continues]

- [Max] Oh my God.

[Fiona] I don't know.

Maybe I should've picked a different song.

Hey.

Hey.

I haven't seen the film

that you mentioned. What happens?

Does he ever break out of the cycle?

Uh, he doesn't break the loop.

No, I'm kidding.

[relieved laugh]

Okay. So what happens to him?

How does he get out of it?

It's not a documentary.

Right.

- When does your mom close the video store?

- 9:00.

- [Moa] Hey, where are you going?

- [Amelia] I just need to do something.

What, now? This is your party.

This is all for you.

Don't worry,

you won't remember tomorrow anyway.

[stammering] What?

Just so you know, I'll never forget this.

WE NOW HAVE DVD'S!

[door rattling]

[melancholy music playing]

[owl hooting]

What are you doing here?

- It was closed, but since you live here

- [music fades out]

Do you think

you could rent that film for me?

- Can't you just come back tomorrow?

- I need it.

[ominous music playing]

[door chimes]

- [dishes clattering]

- [man talking on TV]

I mean, there are other movies

about time travel too.

Peggy Sue, Back to the Future

[Fiona's mom] Okay now,

Fiona, is that you?

I thought that it was someone

Amelia! Oh my God, it's been so long!

- [laughing quietly]

- Oh How are you, dear?

- [Amelia] Fine.

- Really?

- Yeah, really.

- Great. [chuckles]

Fiona hasn't seen much of you lately.

I heard that you don't hang out as much

Amelia's just renting a film.

Hm. You could watch it here.

Umm.. I don't know

It's no bother. Nonsense.

Of course you could watch a movie.

Take some candy, as much as you want.

Go ahead. Yeah.

I'm just gonna go get something.

- You can't say no to Yvonne.

- [Fiona laughing] No, you can't.

I have these.

Just like in the good old days.

- [bean bag chair crumpling]

- There. Okay. Yeah. Kisses.

Bye-bye. Goodnight.

[laughs softly] Oh, salty licorice.

Remember when we tried to see

who could eat the most?

Yeah, that was when I learned

what "laxative" meant.

[laughs]

Yeah, I'll go get the movie.

[wistful string music playing]

[woman on TV] Mm, it's too early.

Mm

Oh!

- [woman sniffs]

- [Amelia and Fiona giggle]

[man on TV] Something is different.

[woman] Good or bad?

[man] Anything different is good.

- [woman moans softly]

- [man laughs] I've got to check something.

[magical music playing on TV]

They're gone!

They're all gone!

- Do you know what today is?

- No, what?

Today is tomorrow.

It happened.

- [man] You're here.

- [woman] I'm here.

[movie clicks off]

So I have to be a better person?

Maybe.

[sighs]

I've been so dumb.

I thought maybe I I dunno,

maybe I was getting second chance.

I've been a bad friend.

Especially with Moa.

I probably ruined her grade

with that presentation,

and I haven't said thanks once

for the party she threw. And, um

And, also the way I've treated you.

I ate up your time, I forced you

to watch a movie with me all night,

against your will.

I

I should leave you alone.

I'll do it right this time.

Thank you for wanting

Or you didn't want to. But thank you

for watching the movie with me anyway. Uh

I'll see you tomorrow, or today.

You know what I mean.

[door opens, chimes]

[Fiona sighs]

[door closes]

[parents singing]

Oh, from good friends and true friends

[upbeat music playing]

- Hey!

- Hey! What are y

- I'm so happy to see you, Moa!

- Uh, me too. [giggling]

- Come on!

- Okay.

- I've got a present for you.

- Oh, really?

Oh!

Wow, Moa! It's perfect!

You guys go ahead, I'll see you later.

Hi. Hinduism, please.

[upbeat music continues]

[page ripping]

[Amelia] as a western social construct

from the British Colonial era,

should be analyzed from a post-Orientalist

and post-imperialistic perspective.

We could also include various

post-structuralist perspectives,

like Michel Foucault and Gayatri Spivak,

and ask ourselves whether the subaltern

will have a voice in the discourse

surrounding modern Hinduism,

while also taking new Hindu

nationalist movements into consideration.

Yes That's right.

[all clapping]

- [coughs]

- Have you seen who's here?

Patrik! Come on.

- [Moa] What? But

- [Amelia] You two should talk.

- Hey. Moa.

- Hey. I'm Patrik.

[Amelia] Whoa. Yeah. There, perfect.

- [Amelia] See you later.

- [door closes]

- [upbeat music fades out]

- [romantic music begins]

Yeah, this is my room.

Okay.

Looks cozy.

[Moa sighs]

Wait, um

[scattered conversations]

- [door banging]

- She is our daughter

She is our daughter

You are our daughter

And this day is for you

Oh, from good friends and true friends

I have to talk to Fiona.

[Dad] Now?

- [Moa] Hey, Amelia!

- [Max] What are you doing?

Wait up! Hey, stop!

Wait, wait, wait Stop.

- It didn't work. What do I do now?

- [somber piano music playing]

No, you wouldn't know,

you don't remember anything.

Because no one remembers anything!

[Moa] Amelia, what are you doing?

Weren't we meeting at your place?

You could have let me know.

Wait, what are you doing?

Well, I have a gift Whoa!

Amelia, are you okay?

[parents] She is our daughter

She is our daughter

- You are our daughter and this day...

- What am I doing wrong?

- From good friends and true...

- Stop singing!

I'm not getting out of here.

But, pumpkin, you

You're graduating soon.

Then you can go wherever you want.

Nothing I do matters, so

["Jerk It Out" playing]

[pop rock music playing]

Wind me up, put me down

Start me off and watch me go

I'll be running circles around

You are totally insane, girl. Crazy.

[both laughing]

A little off center

And I'm out of tune

[parents] She is our daughter

You are our daughter and this

Long live Amelia, long live

[Mom] Happy birthday, sweetie.

Happy 18th, darling. [laughs]

[pop rock music continues]

[horn honking, tires screeching]

[parents] She is our daughter

You are our

[paint spraying]

d*ck

[pop rock music continues]

[police siren sounding]

[parents] and this day is for you

[droning beep on TV]

[people laughing]

SCHOOL COUNSELOR

[music fades out]

[boy] Hey, are you on your period

or something? [laughs]

Huh? [laughing]

- Hey, Amelia.

- Hey.

- What's on your mind today?

- I think that I

I think that I have developed

what you would refer to as psychosis.

Why do you think you have this?

Because every day is the same,

it just repeats itself.

- Today is the same day and it won't end.

- Hmm.

I see.

- It's very normal.

- For psychosis?

Normal for an adult.

Okay, I don't think you

You understand.

Um

- That today is always...

- Yes, yes, I understand.

- The days all feel the same, right?

- Yes.

And that's a feeling that

grows and grows as you get older.

Everyone feels that way.

- Perhaps you can help me get out of this?

- Everyone.

You could prescribe me

some kind of medicine,

- maybe some sort of antipsychotic...

- Well, you know what I think?

No, please tell.

I think that it's about

the small variations in life.

- Mm.

- For example, maybe

you can take a new route to school,

replace cereal with

with that

What's?

It's, um

- Qui quinoffan, quinovan

- Quinoa.

Yes, that.

Or, um, uh

meet friends, go get a beer or drinks.

A new bar? Some cocktails?

You can sleep with a coworker.

- [somber music playing]

- [Amelia] Hm.

Johan, for instance.

[parents] our daughter

She is our daughter

You are our daughter and this...

[dad grunting]

[Amelia groans]

Congrats.

I am fortune teller from the future,

and you can ask me anything.

- [rock music playing]

- What the hell is she talking about?

Come on. Okay, you, for example.

You'll invest in Bitcoin early on,

which is why you can screw the SAT.

- What's that?

- You'll become a mindfulness coach.

[girl] "Mindful?" [laughs]

And you'll come into debt

from all your gambling,

but that's how the cookie crumbles.

And you'll work

with installing fiber cables.

You don't know what that is,

but it'll be fun.

And you'll

What?

[all laughing]

[indistinct conversation]

["Better Off Alone" playing]

Do you think you're better off alone?

Do you think you're better off alone?

[Max] She seems completely

She seems completely lost.

[Moa] No, I know. I can't take it anymore.

- She always craves attention.

- [Max] She's always been like that.

[Moa] I think it's because

she was ugly in middle school.

Then she became pretty, and got to

hang out with other good-looking people.

- Exactly.

- That can be confusing, am I right?

- Crazy.

- Exactly, you don't know what to do,

is all I'm saying.

- [fridge closes]

- Oh.

It's fine, really.

You and me, we aren't gonna be friends

after Max and I break up.

- We didn't break up though.

- Moa and I won't be friends anymore.

To be honest, I won't have anyone.

But you're right, you guys know that?

I am lost.

[boy coughing and retching]

[melancholy music playing]

[party sounds fade out]

- [party sounds rise]

- Hey.

- Are you leaving?

- [melancholy music continues]

- Yeah.

- We

We can hang out if you want to.

Maybe we can, I don't know, watch a movie?

[scoffs]

[Fiona] Is this a joke?

No, it's not.

No, It's, um

Sometimes it feels impossible to talk to

- anyone but you.

- We haven't spoken in years.

Yes, we have.

Many times,

but you can't remember that anyway.

What?

Can we be friends?

What do you say?

I don't know. It's weird.

You've ignored me all of high school,

and now you say

I'm the only one you can talk to.

Wait. It Wait, what?

But I haven't ignored you, Fiona.

You We drifted apart.

We didn't drift apart at all.

You suddenly didn't want

to hang out with me, so

But I thought you have a ton of friends.

Yeah, now.

But I was alone freshman year.

You just didn't give a sh*t.

You're too self-centered

to care about anyone else.

Can we start over?

[door closes]

[melancholy music continues]

[man on TV] On page 47, it reads,

"Change the timing belt every eight years,

or after 120,000 kilometers."

Annette was tricked,

and what you fail to realize, sir,

is that when a client comes in

Hey, pumpkin. You're home so early.

What about your party?

[Amelia] It was cancelled.

What? Aw, I'm sorry.

[man on TV continues chattering]

What would you do

if you could turn 18 again?

[Mom laughs softly] What a nightmare.

I mean, being that age is so tough

You always feel so insecure.

You didn't know who you were then.

Hm.

[music fades out]

[man continues talking on TV]

Do you think that I'm self-centered?

No, I wouldn't say that.

No, you think about yourself.

But you're not self-centered.

I would say you are rather self-focused.

Yes, more self-focused I would say.

- Are you okay, sweetheart?

- Yeah, I'm just going to bed.

- Sleep well.

- Good night.

[Mom] Good night.

But why is he so angry?

- What?

- Sverker.

- [Dad] He's so angry.

- [Mom] I know, but he's always angry.

[gentle music playing]

Whoa! [laughs]

[both laughing]

[Dad] Hi, girls. How old are you now?

[both] Seven.

[Dad] Is it scary, Fiona?

No. [laughs]

- [Fiona] Ow!

- [Dad] Watch out for the tree!

- [Fiona] Oh, oh!

- [Dad] No, you dropped your shoe.

[both girls laughing]

- [Mom] But it's not my birthday.

- [Fiona laughing]

[Mom] So pretty. Here, I'll take it.

Look at this. Is that for me?

[Amelia] No, it's for me.

No, it's for me! It's for me.

It's all mine, Amelia.

- [Amelia laughing]

- [Dad] Dad wants some too.

- Hey, get away now.

- [girls laughing]

You can have some chocolate.

- [Amelia] They symbolize

- [Dad] Right, girls. What are you doing?

- [Amelia scoffs] Please go away.

- [Dad] Fiona, can you tell us?

We're making a time capsule

to hold our wishes.

- And we'll dig it up when we're 18.

- Yeah.

[Dad] What wishes?

It's a secret wish.

[Fiona] Oh, these

We can have them when we're 18.

[Amelia] Yeah, they're so pretty.

I hope they come true.

[Dad] Oh, you girls are so adorable.

[Amelia] Fiona,

I hope we're always gonna be good friends.

Stop filming. It's embarrassing, Dad.

- [Dad] I don't know if I turned it off.

- [Mom] No? That'll be exciting...

[gentle music continues]

[shuddering breath]

[acoustic "Yours to Keep" starts]

[Fiona] Won't you call

My private number?

[students clamoring]

We can go away for the summer

- [Moa] Amelia?

- Come on, love.

[Fiona] We can drive around

- Sit down.

- [both] What?

Sit down, now. Now!

[Fiona] The stereo turned up loud

Please, stay and listen. Fiona has...

Hello! What the hell? Come back.

[Amelia] Come back and sit down.

Show some f*cking respect.

[microphone feedback]

I want to hear the rest.

[students chattering]

[acoustic "Yours to Keep" starts]

[Fiona] Well, I hear

That you want to ditch me

But you know I'm not such a bad seed

[students quieting down]

We can drive around with the top down

Stereo turned up loud

With the fat sound

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

Won't you come on down

To the freak show?

We can sit and watch as my hair grows

We can drive around with the top down

Stereo turned up loud

With the fat sound

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

[guitar stops]

- [boy whoops]

- [students clapping and cheering]

[uplifting music playing]

[cellphone ringing]

[phone beeps off]

[Max] What the hell?

How much do you want for that?

[man] Five hundred. It's good sh*t.

- [Max] Thanks a lot, man.

- Don't tell anyone you got it from me.

Hello? Where the hell

have you been all day?

I called you, like, 30 times

[voice fading out]

[all shouting] Happy birthday!

[muffled voices overlapping]

[music fades out]

[scattered laughing and conversations]

Hey.

[dance music playing]

Hey.

- [Moa crashing]

- I know this might seem sudden, but

But you remember how we said

we would dig up our time capsule

on our 18th birthday?

Um, so I was going to do that.

And I wanted to ask

if you'd open it with me.

[laughs nervously]

- No, thank you.

- Fiona, wait.

I said, "No."

Fiona!

[Max] Come on, call someone. Call!

I think she needs her stomach pumped.

[music ends]

[birds twittering]

[wind rustling through the trees]

MY WISH IS TO BECOME COOL

[Fiona] Amelia.

You came.

Did you read it?

Not yet, I was about to.

What, there's [laughs gently]

"I wish Amelia was in love with me."

But you

I

[dramatic music playing]

Fiona!

Fiona!

Fiona!

[horn honking]

[warped music droning]

[clock ticking rapidly]

- [woman 1] Is she dead?

- [man 1] I think so.

- God, that's so sad.

- She looks pretty messed up.

Maybe it was her time.

- [man 1] Oh, she's waking up.

- Oh, shut up.

[woman 1] Excuse me?

- [woman 2] How are you?

- God, I feel great. Whoa!

You have to come to the ambulance

so we can examine you.

IT'S OVER - BEEP

- It's okay. I'll be fine.

- I insist you come with us.

- I said I'm all right.

- [man 2] Amelia?

["Hot in Herre" playing]

Hot in

So hot in herre

So hot in

[music ends]

- Max?

- I thought that was you I saw.

How've you been?

God, I should have realized

it was you who ran me over.

[laughs] I need to ask you for a favor.

As an apology, you can give me a ride.

I'm in a hurry.

- Where you going?

- To Fiona.

All right then, jump in.

Come on get in the back!

We're gonna be late.

[all cheering]

[heavy bass dance music playing]

[all whooping and cheering]

[Max] Holy sh*t.

Did she always feel this way?

Yeah.

I was just

Too selfish to ever notice it.

But how do you feel?

[heavy bass and cheering continues]

Is it mutual?

[laughs sharply]

- Amelia

- Mm?

It's going to be all right.

Yup.

[tires screeching, horn honking]

[Max] Idiot.

[heavy bass and whooping continues]

[man] Why are we stopped, man?

Thanks.

[sighs deeply]

[party-goers chattering]

["18" playing]

Be out there on your own

Me and you forever, baby

- [people chattering, children laughing]

- We got all the time

Eighteen's just a second, really

Yeah, you got all your life

Call me when you feel alone

I always pick up the phone

Me and you forever, baby

We got all the time

[overlapping conversations]

[children laughing]

Oh, oh no, there you go

From the teenage years

To the grown-up fears

Whee!

[baby laughing]

[baby crying]

[party sounds and music fade]

- [music and party sounds rise]

- Me and you forever, baby

[woman shrieking]

[splashing]

[people clamoring]

[boss] Oh my God, Amelia.

What happened?

Goodness, look at you.

Oh, honey.

[Amelia sobbing]

- [sniffles]

- Oh, my dear. What happened to you? Huh?

[Amelia continues sobbing]

Come on. Let's go inside

and find you some clothes.

- Are you hurt?

- I'm fine.

[sobs]

[boss] So you never actually spoke to her?

No.

She looked so happy,

I couldn't just stay and ruin it.

- Just gonna

- [boss] Mm-hm.

- [microwave whirring]

- [man chuckles awkwardly]

Also, um

About earlier.

Quitting.

I would say it's not the best

[scoffs] decision I've made today.

No, don't worry about it.

You're welcome to work again on Monday.

Actually, you have to.

I never replaced you.

Thank you.

And sorry.

- [microwave beeping]

- Oh.

You can flip out on your birthday.

It happens, you know.

[man chuckles] You can.

[melancholy music playing[]

[wind rustling]

[children chattering, squealing]

[Mom] Weren't you

supposed to have a party?

[Amelia] I'd rather

celebrate with you two.

[man chattering on TV]

If we had known you were coming today,

we'd have gotten you a birthday cake.

It's perfect, thank you.

I've had enough cake for today I think.

Uh Maybe you should sleep here.

[Amelia] No, I think I'll go home.

You can stay if you want to,

and maybe sleep in your old room.

No I'm sure it'll be okay.

It feels like yesterday

you were 18 years old.

Mm.

- [Mom] Right, Sten?

- [Dad] Yeah.

[wistful music playing]

[birds twittering]

[leaves rustling in the wind]

[Fiona] Hey.

Hey.

Were you at my party?

No.

Yeah.

You should've stayed.

I already ruined it.

[Fiona] You didn't ruin it.

I was standing there with my cousin

and her baby,

then I saw you,

trashing everything and leaving.

[sighs]

Sorry.

So you read my wish note.

Mm, I did.

I'm also so sorry

for being a bad friend in school.

I wish I was better at that age.

I've missed you

so much.

I wish things were different

so that you'd be a friend in my life.

[phone ringing]

Oh God.

- Sorry.

- It's fine.

God [sighs]

[sniffles]

Oh my God.

- What do they want, how do I mute it?

- Well, who is it?

- It's Mom and Papa.

- Go ahead.

No, but

Okay.

[clears throat]

- [Dad] Hi.

- [Mom] Hi, honey.

[Amelia] Hi.

We just wanted to make sure

you got home okay.

[Dad] Where are you?

- I'm out for a walk.

- [Dad] Oh!

- [Fiona] Hey, hey.

- [Dad] Isn't that Fiona?

- It's Fiona! Oh!

- [Amelia and Fiona laughing]

- [Dad] Hi!

- [Mom] It's been a while since we saw you.

[Dad laughs] Yeah.

Happy birthday to you as well.

- Oh, right. But then

- Yeah!

Then we have to sing.

- [parents] Long live Amelia

- Oh my god.

- Long live Amelia

- [Amelia and Fiona laughing]

Long live Amelia for a hundred years

She is our daughter

She is our daughter

You are our daughter

And this day is for you

[Fiona] Amelia

I want you in my life as well.

What for?

I'm such an idiot.

[phone beeping off]

I can also be an idiot.

[both laughing]

[Fiona chuckles awkwardly]

["Yours to Keep" playing]

[laughs gently]

[laughs gently]

- [rock music playing]

- Won't you call my private number

We can go away for the summer

We can drive around with the top down

Stereo turned up loud

With the fat sound

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

But I feel that you want to ditch me

That you know I'm not such a bad seed

We can drive around with the top down

Stereo turned up loud

With the fat sound

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

We can have some fun with an eardrum

We can bang away on the tom tom

We can drive around with the top down

Stereo turned up loud

With the fat sound

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

Won't you come on down

To the freak show?

He can sit and watch as my hair grows

We can drive around with the top down

Stereo turned up loud

With the fat sound

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

'Cause I'm yours to keep

If you want to

And I'm yours to keep, if you want to

["18" starts playing]

Oh, oh no, there you go

From the teenage years

To the grown-up fears

And crying on my shoulder

It's not easy

But hear me when I tell you

How good it will be

Only yesterday, we were kids

We knew everything

Now we know nothing

And I don't remember much

From before you

But it doesn't matter

It's only us two

And all the other days

That feel alone

No, 18 isn't always for you

Be out there on your own

Me and you forever, baby

We got so much time

Eighteen's just a second, really

Yeah, you got all your life

Call me when you feel alone

I always pick up the phone

Me and you forever, baby

We got so much time

Things will change but this won't

You used to copy me, and now you don't

I can't remember me before you

But I would be nothing

If I didn't have you

Me and you forever, baby

We got so much time

Eighteen's just a second, really

Yeah, you got all your life

Call me when you feel alone

I always pick up the phone

Me and you forever, baby

We got so much time
