ALAN: No sh*t.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

[EXHALES]

Hey, you alright?

It's a habit.

So, this is where you've been
coming every night?

Yeah.

What do you do?

I eat.

Then I watch videos on my phone.

[ALAN CHUCKLES]

OK.

Check this one out. [LAUGHS]

-Here we go.
-[LAUGHS] Wait.

[LAUGHS] Stop. Wait.

Alan! Alan! Alan!

Alan! Alan!

Al! Alan!

-[LUCINDA LAUGHS]

ALAN: You know,
it's really not that funny.

-Steve!
-LUCINDA: "Steve!"

[LAUGHS]

-[CHUCKLES]
-It just gets me every time.

[LAUGHS] It's funny.

What else do you do?

I think.

About what?

Um...

About whether or not I'm gonna
drive off this cliff.

[GEORGE SINGSONGS] One of you.

One of you.

And one of you.

Which flavour makes it
taste less like vodka?

Um, cola, but also all of them.

-Mm.
-Maya, can you shout me, please?

[MO LAUGHS]

-What the f*ck?! My eye, Priya!
-I'm sorry.

-I'm sorry. Let me look.
-Oh, my God.

PRIYA: No, it's not funny.
It's not funny.

It's dripping down
my f*cking shirt!

-Get out!
-It's cold!

GUS: Almost there.

I'm gonna get m*rder*d.
I'm gonna get m*rder*d.

-I'm gonna get m*rder*d.
-Wow. I'm not a m*rder*r.

No, I... Sorry. I didn't mean...

I mean, if I did,
it wouldn't be here.

-It's too much admin.
-[HALF-LAUGHS]

I'm kinda nervous.

-I'm not gonna k*ll you!
-No, chill!

I mean about seeing
my dad's piece.

Masterpiece.
Don't ever forget that.

Pff! Yeah.

How long do you reckon it will
take for him to notice?

Don't know. What you gonna tag?

Um, maybe 'toy'
or maybe 'f*ck you, Dad'.

GUS: OK. [LAUGHS]

Or is that too on the nose?

-I don't know. It's your dad.
-[LAUGHS] Yeah.

GIRL: Oi, Ray?

Oi, Leki! Where are ya?

LEKI: I know the sound of
a Ray Rubber when I hear one.

-We're on our way out.
-You promised.

They're my friends. Relax.
You're gonna like 'em.

Who's this?

This is Kate.

We're both gonna go check out
the MopsOne piece.

I thought it was a masterpiece.

-Oh. [GRUNTS]
-LEKI: She's funny.

See you, Ray.

Oi, Hooper, let's go!

[TRAIN RUMBLES AND SQUEALS
IN DISTANCE]

GUS: What's wrong?

Nothing.

Yuck! Look,
I've done this before.

All you've gotta do is
walk in like you're 20, OK?

-I wish I was.
-What?

-MO: Stop, stop. Stand still.
-Nothing.

MO: No, delete it.

[DANCE MUSIC PLAYS NEARBY]

We going in?

Shu habibi.

[MO AND PRIYA TALK INDISTINCTLY]

Oh. Sorry.

[MO AND PRIYA LAUGH]

Go. Stand here.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Hi.

ID!

SONG: ♪ As I look around

♪ What do I see? ♪

[BOTH SHRIEK]

Shh. OK, OK, OK,
be normal, be normal.

Just, um, don't get spiked
and if creeps come up to you,

just give them a fake name.

♪ f*ck it

♪ You're my friend... ♪

What? No, no, no, no, no.

OK, tonight is your night, OK?

-My night?
-Yes.

Like, most nights are mine.
Tonight is your night.

My frigid mode,
officially activated.

-Sure.
-[PHONE DINGS]

"We didn't get in.
Come back out. I need to pee."

Great.

♪ Let's dance again, shall we? ♪

The f*ck?!

Why aren't they answering?

Oh, I almost just peed.

Just pee in that bush.

No way.

OK.

Why?

Don't tell anyone.

The last time I popped a squat,
I al...

Mm, I'm gonna vomit.

A c*ck almost flew up my...

You know.

Your foot?

My crack, Mo. My crack.

And the pee went everywhere.

And it's gonna be
one of those stories

where when I become
a successful public figure,

it'll haunt me when I inevitably
have my televised public trial.

Right.

Well, I'm sure
they'll be out in a minute.

We're supposed to be
having fun together.

I'm having fun.

-Are you on drugs?
-[CHUCKLES]

I'm just saying, we don't always
have to be together as a group

to be having fun.

[DANCE MUSIC PLAYS]

-Maya?
-Oh, my God! Hey!

Hi!

MAYA: So good to see you!
Oh, my God, you look amazing!

[LAUGHS]

ALAN: Don't jump now. [LAUGHS]

'Cause they'll say I pushed you.

Won't be so bad.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

You know...

..I see you...

..pushing forward.

I see you...fighting.

I don't know how.

I wake up in the morning
and I move forward an inch

and...then I see
what happens next.

I could do that.

Promise I'll do that.

KATE: I've never seen Mum
look so...

GUS: Yeah, I know.

What do you wanna do?

I don't know.

I know I hate him,
but this is really good.

Disappointingly good.

[SPRAY CAN RATTLES]

Well, whatever you choose,
just know I've got your back.

[SPRAY CAN HISSES]

[SPRAY CAN RATTLES]

Are you a Scorpio?

OK, water sign. I see.

[HALF-LAUGHS]

My dad always told me
that I should be thankful

that he's so good at art,

for everything we had
and whatever.

He's so f*cking up himself!

But, my God, he's right.

f*ck you, Dad!

I agree. f*ck you, Dad!

Come on!

[BOTH LAUGH]

[BOTH LAUGH]

GUS: We lived different
up the coast.

KATE: What do you even mean
when you say 'mud hut'?

The walls are made
out of rock and mud

and all the stuff
that is around.

I'm so sorry.

I've been whining about my
loser dad and self-centred mum

and...I should just
stop talking.

Oh, my God.

[TRAIN RUMBLES AND SQUEAKS
IN DISTANCE]

Quick. Come on.

Get back.

I don't like you
because of your parents, Kate.

You're the smartest person
I know, you're funny

and you remind me of home -

like, all the good parts.

You like me?

Um, not if it, like,
makes you weird or anything.

Sorry.

[LAUGHS] I...

[TRAIN RATTLES LOUDLY]

[ELECTRONIC MUSIC BUILDS]

[POPPY DANCE MUSIC PLAYS]

This is Priya's song!

Oh, sh*t.

-[MUSIC PLAYS ON PHONE]
-It's our song!

-Turn it up.
-Turn it off.

You guys left me without even
checking where I was.

Priya, you would have wanted
to bail anyway

'cause it wasn't even that good.

You saw my text messages, OK.
Do not start with me, you...

You what?

Were...were you
about to slur me?

-What?! No!
-Yes!

Actually, you were, OK.

You breaked for
a really long time

when you were talking to me.

You'll know when I'm
hate-criming you, George.

If I don't pee soon,
I'm gonna vomit urine.

Priya, wait.

I'm sorry.

All I wanted to do tonight
was have a good time together.

-We don't do that anymore.
-We do, though.

No, we don't!

Like, yeah, we hang out,
but your eyes are always so sad.

I just wanted to make them happy
for once,

but you clearly don't need me
for that anymore.

Sometimes I just need
to be left alone.

-[SCOFFS] Well, I don't.
-Yeah, I know.

Priya, I love you,

but we all know that
you can't handle being alone.

It's, like, your thing.

Well, if I wasn't so scared
you might go top yourself

because I don't know what
you're thinking half the time.

-GEORGE: Let there be toilets!
-[MO AND GEORGE CHEER]

-PRIYA: Where did you get that?
-MO: Let me have a go!

GEORGE: Nah, finders keepers.

[GEORGE, MO AND PRIYA
TALK OVER EACH OTHER]

Maybe we could pretend...

..that he's...he's gone
on exchange

and he'll be back soon.

Luce, he's... [SIGHS]

-He's not.
-Don't. Please don't.

Well, he always wanted
to see Portugal.

Yeah.

-Yeah.
-[CHUCKLES] Yeah.

That's why
he hasn't been calling,

'cause he's having so much fun.

Having a ball.

Yeah.

Come on. We need to
find you a bathroom.

I'm gonna piss my pants
any second.

[GROANS]

Come on!

Oh, this has to be it.
This has to be it.

This has to be it.

-No.
-[HANDLE RATTLES]

Oh, no! [SIGHS]

Please, come on!

[SIGHS LOUDLY]

GEORGE: Nah. Nah, nah, nah,
nah, nah, nah, nah.

No, because I read on Twitter

Jesus was black, g*y
and neurodiverse.

-What the hell is this?
-Keep it down!

Maybe he's just, like,

super passing
on all counts or something.

Oh, spare me, Maya.
OK, look at the statue.

-It is both pink and uncut.
-PRIYA: Open this door!

I'd still probably hit it,
though.

PRIYA: No.

No.

No, no, no, no.

Oh, no, no.

MO: Oh, my God.

Saying the Lord's name in vain
is a sin.

GEORGE: This is so satanic.

What's happening?

MO: No.

The Lord's house
is not a restroom.

-It was an accident.
-GEORGE: I'm sorry, Father.

We're just grieving right now.

Come on, chosen family.

Let's get out of
thy Father's here way.

[HARSHLY] Get up now.
We're leaving!

[WHISPERS] So sorry.

Do you have somewhere
to stay tonight?

Thank you.

-[MAYA WHISPERS] Just go.
-GEORGE: Mind your piss!

-[MO AND GEORGE LAUGH]
-MAYA: Let's go down here.

MO: Pissed herself!

PRIYA: Shut up!

I didn't say anything.

Honestly, Pri,
seeing you piss yourself

at the feet of a fraud saviour

was probably the best thing
I had seen you do all year.

Besides, you had never
pissed yourself before

and it was bound to happen.

Priya. Pri.

-[GASPS] Pee-ya.
-No!

-Pee-ya!
-No, don't!

George, these are
my favourite pants!

Priya, take 'em off.

Bold of you, Mo, but is now
really the time for this?

MO AND MAYA:
Oh, shut up, George!

You two, keep watch.
Come. Come with me.

What the f*ck
are we watching out for?

-[HALF-LAUGHS]
-Put these on.

-Are you serious?
-What?

Oh, my mum bought these.

-OK, that is adorable.
-[LAUGHS]

Thank you, Mo.

Wait. What are you gonna wear?

[LAUGHS]

[MAYA WHISPERS]
I'll see if I can hear them

if I cup my ear like this.

[MO SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]

[WHISPERS] You're delusional.

I can hear urine. [LAUGHS]

-[GEORGE SNORTS]
-[MAYA LAUGHS]

-Shut up! Shut up!
-MAYA: Oh, my God.

GEORGE: On the floor,
on the floor.

Drop, drop, drop,
drop, drop, drop.

-Oh, gross.
-GEORGE: OK, everyone, come on.

Hold hands.

Close your eyes.
Yeah, just go with it.

Yeah, feel the energy. Mm.

-MO: Shut up, man.
-GEORGE: Shh!

Dear God, or whoever
is up there listening,

these were
Priya's favourite pants

and I know - I know -
that fast fashion

is, like,
k*lling our planet or whatever,

but we like to see the good
things even in the bad things.

[SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]

What?

-GUS: Yeah, funny.
-[LAUGHS]

-GUS: sh*t.
-[BOTH LAUGH]

[GUS GREETS IN JAPANESE]

[WAITRESS SPEAKS JAPANESE]

[GUS SPEAKS JAPANESE]

Hi, Gus-san,
nice to see you again.

Domo, my dude!

-KATE: What?
-GUS: Nothing, nothing,

-SERVER: Hi.
-Thank you.

[SPEAKS JAPANESE]

Sure. Why not? [CHUCKLES]

-You speak Japanese?
-No.

What was the last thing
she said?

No idea.

What?

Back in the tunnel,
I thought I saw...

-Tully?
-Yeah. How'd you know?

I had a dream about him.
Freaked me out, actually.

-sh*t. About that night?
-No, not that.

It was a nice dream. Very clear.

Almost like if he was still...

Here.

Yeah.

Have you and Mo
actually talked about it?

I don't think
Mo wants to talk to me anymore.

We both saw it.
It was like it was in slow-mo.

I ran, but I don't know why.

I'm just, like,
a piece of sh*t, basically.

Come on.
You know that's not true.

I won't blame you
if you want to leave now.

Oh, no.
I'm way too hungry to leave.

Never do that.

Gus, you are not a bad person
for running.

I would have had no idea what
the f*ck to do if I was there.

-Yeah?
-Mm.

Also, why were they calling you
Ray Rubber in the tunnels?

What was that about?

Uh, I stood on a stingray once.

[LAUGHS] What?

[LAUGHS] So, that just became...

-Ah, fair enough.
-Yeah.

[DOG BARKS]

GEORGE: He's such an idiot, but
I think he's my kind of idiot.

I think I might love him.

-Whoa.
-I know.

[HALF-LAUGHS]

[VEHICLE APPROACHES]

What was the plan again?

[EXHALES]

Get up, finish the patio
around the spa.

Yeah.

Yep.

[EXHALES]

Hey.

I'll always love you, Luce.

I love you.

Steve, wasn't it?

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

ALAN: Mm.

[LUCINDA SIGHS]

Can you touch me?

[ALAN WHISPERS] Yes, I can.

[LUCINDA SIGHS]

-Oh, that feels good.
-[WHISPERS] Does that feel good?

Yeah.

[BOTH HUM CHEERFUL TUNE]

[BOTH GIGGLE]

Hey, I'm not a donk.

I know.

[SNORTS]

-I love you.
-I love you too.

[BOTH GIGGLE]

I don't know
what I'm doing anymore.

I don't know. I just feel like
everyone feels like that.

Just gotta ignore that sh*t
and pretend.

Nah, Tully always knew
what to do.

When we were kids,

I'm pretty sure he used to steal
my Pokémon cards.

-What?
-Yeah, man.

We'd chip in to get these big
decks 'cause you could get more

and I would never get
any good cards.

-Someone sounds bitter.
-Nah, seriously!

One time,
I got this shiny Mewtwo card

and you could just see it
in his face.

-He was spewing.
-[CHUCKLES]

And then it just went missing

and I'm sure that
f*cking stingy b*stard took it.

He 100% took it. You know why?

Because that f*ck
still owes me 50 bucks

and now I'm never
getting that sh*t back.

[LAUGHS]

Could you imagine?

Losing your only child?

I would fully unalive myself.

[CAR ENGINE IDLES]

GEORGE: What?

-Oh, f*ck!
-Was that too much?

-I'll be back.
-It was probably too much.

Mo!
