Animal Within (2025)

Post by bunniefuu »

Any initial thoughts?

I thought you were writing

a theater play, not a musical.

It's a play, but it's got-

So why are these women

singing about the characters?

They're like

a Greek chorus.

So in Greek tragedies,

there's always a

chorus singing about

the main character's dilemmas

from an outside perspective.

But they're also, they're

real characters in the play.

Okay.

What? That's original.

How often have you seen modern

plays using a Greek chorus?

Never.

It'll be different.

It'll stand out.

And I need my first

play to make a mark.

It'll be a Greek

tragedy in modern times,

listen to how cool it sounds.

Just imagine this, but

it's only sung by women.

Okay.

h*m* sapiens,

also called humans,

couple up often for

the rest of their lives

as Tom and Ani did.

For the rest of their lives

For the rest of their lives

Humans couple up

For the rest of their lives

For the rest of their lives

They nest together

and build a home

that makes it safe to procreate.

For the rest of their lives

For the rest of their lives

Check mate.

Come on, it's only a game.

I came, I saw, I conquered.

Now it's time for my reward.

What are you doing?

What does it

look like I'm doing?

Taking what's rightfully mine.

Babe, sorry, I just, I'm not

feeling a hundred percent.

I'm sorry babe, I've

just got such a headache.

I don't know, I...

I better go lie down for a bit.

Sorry.

Come to bed.

Sleep is for mere mortals.

I'm Wonder Woman.

Very highly caffeinated

Wonder Woman.

Babe, why don't you take

these creepy photos down?

He wants me to not move

things around in the studio.

Yeah, but they're creepy.

Be nice, he's my uncle.

Do you wanna see

what I'm working on?

What's this?

It's a smart lamp.

It sees everything.

Jesus, babe, that

is stalker creepy.

Now close your eyes.

You see?

No, I don't see, you just

told me to close my eyes.

Well what happens is

when you close your eyes,

the lamp sees it and turns off.

So let's say you're in bed

and you're reading a

book and you fall asleep,

the lamp will turn

off automatically.

That way you save energy

and you don't miss out

on a good night's sleep.

Scientifically proven

that people don't reach

the gamma level

unless they sleep in-

You're so hot when

you're like this.

Like what?

Brilliant, passionate.

Okay, so let me be

brilliant and passionate.

Let me finish my work.

Okay, my clever genius.

I'm going to sleep.

Can you take the

footrest up for the movers?

I don't wanna forget

to give it to them.

For who?

Yeah, my uncle has

some people coming

to pick some stuff up

before he puts the

house on the market.

He really wants the

footrest for his new house.

When is this house

going on the market?

I don't know.

Soon, I think.

By foot rest, you mean

this thing over here?

Yeah.

He's really got weird

taste, your uncle.

Well be grateful

he lets us stay in

this house for free.

Yeah, it's not for free.

Well, taking care of his

snake is hardly a big deal.

Yeah, that's not what

I'm talking about.

Would you rather be in some

shabby studio flat in Tooting?

Hey, I'm from Tooting!

Come on, we live in a

house with a f*cking pool.

Just take the foot rest up.

Less than a pool, it's

a serial k*ller dungeon.

You see anybody mentally

sound swimming in it?

Yeah, I have to give you that.

It's kinda weird.

I'm sorry babe, I

forgot about your leg.

Why don't you just leave it?

Baby, I'm fine.

Don't be ridiculous.

You don't always have to

be able to do everything.

Darling, I'm okay.

The camera's stopped recording.

Recording? How many

do you have in every room?

It's my job.

What, to make privacy

a thing of the past?

To make people's

lives safe and easier.

I feel so safe.

Especially when

I'm taking a dump.

Well, I have to try out

my devices somewhere.

Yeah and it would

be great to know

if there's anywhere

in this house

where an appliance

doesn't stare at me.

Good morning, Tom and Ani.

It's 8:00am.

I'm up.

Off.

Wonder Woman.

Wonder Woman, wake up.

Wake up baby, it's eight.

- It's eight.

- What's time?

Eight, eight o'clock.

sh*t, I'm late.

The new CEO is coming in today.

Yeah, you need to eat.

The new CEO, that's exciting.

Perhaps for me.

I just have to be

a body at a desk

so he can see all his

sl*ves are at work.

Baby, eat.

Is this okay?

Yeah, it's a little

creased, but it's fine.

What are you doing today?

Do you have any students?

No, school holiday.

Maybe you should

go out and do something.

You forgetting I'm handicapped?

So get a friend over then.

I don't really have any friends.

I love you, my

little drama queen.

Okay, so just sit in your

misery then, like a true artist

and write a masterpiece.

I have to go.

Ah, ah, ah.

Mm, it's the crunchy

peanut butter.

What would I do without you?

Love, a rush of

the hormonic citizen.

That is necessary for

prompting a female

to be interested in a male

when she is sexually

ready to reproduce.

And for the male to want to

protect her and their offspring.

Sapiens call it love

and treat it as one of

the most important

occurrences in their lives.

Mon amour, I'm home.

You won't believe what happened.

So the CEO came around

for inspection, right?

And guess what?

He started talking to

me out of the blue.

Just asked me about

my work and stuff

and I told him

about my inventions

and he said he really

likes the sound of it.

He wants me to come in tomorrow

and show him one of

my smart appliances.

And if he likes it, he will

think about marketing it

and maybe move me from internship

to full-time employment.

Oh, that's massive!

This could be my big break.

You deserve it.

And we could afford

our own house.

We could finally start our

life, like, properly, you know.

It would be great not to be

at the mercy of

your creepy uncle.

Would I be your kept husband?

You'll become a

famous playwright

and I'll support you

while you write your

first masterpiece.

Babe, what did

you call this guy?

Your new CEO?

Why was this in the bin?

I just really don't think

I need them anymore.

You didn't think of

talking to me about it?

Baby, I haven't had

an episode in ages.

The drugs make me docile, okay.

They turn my brain

in the complete mush

and I need to be able to write.

Okay, but you promise me that-

I promise, I

promise I will take them.

Okay?

Oui?

Right, now, onto a

more pressing issue.

The name of your

CEO, Erik Mines?

Yeah, why?

Well, because I can't

find him online.

Why are you looking

for my CEO online?

Because I thought it

would be a good idea

for you to know a bit about him.

You could strike up a

good chat for the meeting.

But I can't find him anywhere.

I can't find him at all.

Look, see, there's nothing.

Well, maybe he doesn't want

to have his name in public.

Not everyone has to

be on the internet.

Yeah, he's the CEO of

a major tech company.

You think he'd be somewhere?

My uncle is accomplished

and he's not online.

Yeah, but no offense,

you're uncle's a weirdo

who likes to sneak

up on his niece

in the middle of the night.

Let it go.

It's his house.

He still has the right to

come whenever he wants.

Yeah, especially in

the middle of the night

when he thinks I'm away.

But seriously, babe, do you

not think it's a bit weird

that this guy's not online?

Not everybody has

to be online to exist.

I was thinking of showing

him my smart lamp.

I think it's the best thing

I've come up with so far.

I like the lamp.

Or maybe one of my

home security cameras.

What do you think?

No, lamp's good, it's original.

Okay, let's test it out.

Well done baby.

Close your eyes.

Well done baby.

Close your eyes.

Did you c*m?

Yeah.

Good.

But you didn't.

Come here.

Why didn't you c*m?

I dunno, babe, I think

I'm just stressed.

You're stressed? About what?

I don't know baby,

I'm just exhausted.

Babe...

I don't mean to offend

you or anything,

but you look like you're

going to a funeral.

Why don't you put on

a dress or something?

Just gives you a better

chance to charm the guy.

I'm not going

there to charm him.

I'm going there to

show him my work

and get the job as

a tech engineer.

Yeah, I know, I just think

that you seem a bit scary,

like this, all in black.

No one likes a scary person.

I would just put on

a dress or something.

Something lighter,

more feminine.

You sound like a true sexist.

No, I didn't

mean it like that.

Okay, can you grab my phone

and take a video of me please?

I wanna remember this morning.

Last morning as a sl*ve before

I become a real engineer.

What should I do?

Oh, I'm sorry baby,

I know I shouldn't

say this again,

but you really should

change your outfit.

No, believe me, I know

what I'm talking about.

You just look like...

Like a strong woman.

No, you look

like a try hard

with a lot of

unnecessary attitude.

I mean, it's summer, it's hot,

you're wearing a

black turtleneck.

You wanna look relaxed, casual,

not like a nun on

the way to a convent.

Oh no, sorry, I didn't

mean to offend you.

I just, I know what

I'm talking about.

You know, I'm a guy,

I know how guys think.

You mean all guys want

a weak submissive

bimbo to dominate,

is that how you think?

No, I...

So how do you know

what all guys think?

You just think

like that yourself.

Babe, I'm

just trying to help.

I don't know about that.

Trust me darling,

you get one chance

to get on this guy's good side.

Zero aspiration.

Be an objectified

sex doll drooled over

by some sexed up sleaze bag.

Uh uh, no, it's

really not about that.

It's about first impressions.

Everyone knows how

important they are.

I'm waiting for my

meeting, I'm so nervous.

You were right about the

black, I would totally melt.

Oh my God.

Ani?

Yeah, sorry.

No worries, we

live in a selfie world.

Come in.

So how did it go?

What's for dinner?

Your favorite.

So?

So, what?

So, how did the meeting go?

He's weird.

Yeah, told you.

No, I mean, really weird.

Like what?

Like all shiny, all polished,

no expression, blank.

And his hands are

like, you know,

his nails are cut so short

that you can see the

red flesh underneath.

And his hands are

like scrubbed raw.

I don't know, his

whole person is creepy.

I didn't like the vibe.

Well, maybe he's

a serial k*ller.

He had to scrub his hands

clean of his victim's DNA.

It's a joke, baby.

It's not really funny.

Okay, well, bon appetit.

His appearance aside, what

did he say about the lamp?

He didn't.

He didn't what?

He didn't say anything.

So what do you mean he

didn't say anything.

He didn't even look at it, okay.

Can we eat now?

What do you mean he

didn't look at it?

He didn't, he just

wanted to chat.

And he said he would look

at it later in the week

when he has more time.

Well, he's the CEO

of a new company.

You know, he's probably slammed.

That's good news.

That's good news that

he said he'd look at it.

He could have just

took one glance

and said he wasn't interested.

Good news, good news.

I guess.

You want some?

I'm gonna get another bottle.

You gonna tell me

what's going on babe?

I told you, I'm just

disappointed about the lamp.

You sure?

It's not a big deal.

Well, judging by your mood,

I would strongly disagree.

The guy flirted with me.

Okay, he flirted

with you. Then what?

Then what, what?

What else did he do?

What do you mean?

Nothing, he just flirted.

Okay, well it's not like

flirting is a crime, is it?

It is if you're someone's boss.

Yeah, but he didn't

do anything, did he?

Just flirted, that's it.

You don't get it, do you?

No babe, baby, I'm just

trying to understand.

I mean, who could blame

him for flirting with you?

You're just a sexy, sexy woman.

How would you feel if I

saw you as a sexual object?

Happy and fulfilled.

If I didn't care about your

feelings and your thoughts,

about who you are, about

your dreams, aspirations.

I could use you as a

body for my own pleasure.

As a subservient being.

Sorry babe, this

is getting a bit weird.

As a lifeless doll,

here for my own pleasure.

Let me show

you a pressure point

that helps with the tension.

Do you feel that knot?

You have to do it

slowly, really slowly.

Okay, thank you.

Press harder to get

the tension to release.

Does it hurt?

That's good.

I mean, it's really hurts.

Good.

Yeah, pain is good.

I'm good now.

I feel really relaxed.

Thank you.

You have to get into the

pain and just embrace it.

I think I should

go back to work.

Thank you.

Pain is only unpleasant

if you fight it.

Someone needs to teach

you how to relax.

I'll let you know

when we can discuss

your lamp project, properly.

Still think I'm exaggerating?

The predator

The predator

Among human males

there is one very dangerous

strand, the predator.

It's a dysfunctional individual

that will force

themselves onto anyone

they have an urge to mate with.

When faced with an

encroaching predator,

an individual has

only two options.

Surrender or go to battle.

Babe, I'm so sorry for

saying you were exaggerating.

Honestly, I feel such an idiot.

It's okay

darling, don't worry.

I'm just gonna go change.

You okay?

Yeah.

So sweet.

What did I do to deserve this?

Just being you.

And it's on Facebook too.

Well, if it's not on

Facebook, it's not real.

And if it's

just on Instagram...

It still might be fake.

Could you put a balloon heart

in the middle of the roses

and just write on it "from Tom".

Tom, yeah, thank you.

And just make sure

it's really big.

Yeah, really big.

Really visible.

Yes.

Okay.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Thanks for the flowers.

It's really sweet of you.

You brought them back?

Yeah. I like them better here.

Yeah, but I got

them to your office

so you could spice up your

corporate surroundings.

Well, I like them better here.

Babe, what's going on?

Just talk to me.

Nothing.

It's just the Erik thing.

Today? Still?

Yeah.

You sure?

Am I sure?

What the f*ck do

you mean by that?

I... I was-

Don't you think I know when

someone oversteps the line?

I just don't understand

what you mean, darling.

What I just said.

Yeah, but what does overstepping

the line actually mean?

What I just said.

Yeah, but like what? Like

what did he actually do?

f*ck!

Jesus! What aren't you getting?

Give it here.

He f*cking went for it, okay?

You were alone with him or

something happened, what?

No, I will never make the

mistake of being alone with him.

We were at a staff meeting

and he asked me

to sit next to him

so I could take notes for him.

So I did.

And I was taking notes

and I felt a hand on

my knee, like this.

I tried to move my leg away,

but he was holding

onto it firmly.

And then he started

sliding his hand up

first on the outside,

then on the inside.

And every time I was

trying to move my leg,

he would hold onto it.

And then he would slide it up

slowly so no one could see.

And his grip was so firm.

It was painful.

And he slid his hand up

my skirt and I froze.

I froze.

And he looked at me and smiled.

And I looked around to see

if no one else noticed,

no one did.

And he moved his hand further up

and he stopped just

before, you know,

and just kept it there.

And his signet ring was

cutting into my skin

and every time I

tried to move my leg,

he would force me

to hold it still.

So all I could do is just...

You're hurting me.

Hey...

I'm really sorry.

I don't know what

happened yesterday.

You shouldn't have

stopped taking the pills.

It doesn't have

anything to do with the pills.

I disagree.

This wasn't one of

my anger episodes.

No one knows what aggression

is better than me and this...

This was not it.

This was about dominance, power.

It was the fact that you said

no, that was the turn on.

And I know, I know this

is inappropriate to say,

but it's the truth.

I'm not your therapist.

I don't have to

listen to this sh*t.

One thing that I did

understand yesterday though

is that you're not gonna

be able to get your boss

to stop harassing you.

The more that you resist,

the more it'll turn him on.

Don't project

yourself onto Erik.

I'm not projecting myself.

I'm not projecting

myself onto anyone.

You're the one that

almost k*lled someone

beating them to sh*t.

Not Erik.

And you're the one that got

turned on by violence yesterday,

not Erik.

What are you doing?

I thought you forgave

me for yesterday.

What did you say to him?

Who?

My boss.

Nothing, we just

exchanged pleasantries.

Really? So why

did he ask me out?

What?

He asked me out for dinner.

What, today?

Yeah, just after you left.

I don't know what

you said to him,

but you clearly

made him more keen.

What would I want

to do that for?

I don't know, you tell me.

Why would you come by my office?

You never come by my work.

I came by to bring you lunch

and apologize for yesterday.

You could have waited until

I came home to apologize.

You haven't left the house

since you broke your leg.

I wanted to make a gesture.

Really?

You really think

I'm that stupid?

You wanted to bump into my boss.

We didn't say anything bad.

I was just, I was literally

just trying to help.

Well, you just did the opposite.

I really thought he liked me,

he even followed

me on Instagram.

I dunno why.

You think it's about you?

You think it's some pissing

contest between you and him

and I'm just some kind of

f*cking trophy in the middle?

No I don't think that.

Don't you think I see

what you're doing?

The Instagram love, the

Facebook declarations,

the flowers at the office.

You want to show him I'm yours,

like I'm some kind of belonging.

And if I belong to

you, he can't have me.

Is that how you think?

This isn't about you.

Erik doesn't give

a sh*t about you.

He doesn't give

a sh*t about you.

How did he react

when you told him

that you weren't

gonna go for dinner?

If I offend him, my chances

at the company are f*cked

and my future rides on it.

So you agreed?

No, I didn't.

I laughed it off and I walked.

What would you do

if you were me?

If I were you?

I would sue him for

sexual harassment.

- Oh you would?

- Yeah.

And you think anyone

would take you seriously?

It's my word against his

and nobody can turn

against the CEO.

You have the video

that you sent me.

Oh, you mean the video in which

nothing really happens except

him showing me a pressure point.

Are you f*cking kidding me?

Do you honestly agree

that no one could see

how sexually aggressive

his behavior is in a video?

Okay.

Just, let's assume

for a moment that

a miracle happens

and someone does see

his behavior as inappropriate

and makes it a case.

I would lose my job.

And do you think any other

tech company would employ me

after they hear I sued my

boss over sexual harassment?

They will see me as the

dangerously unhinged crazy b*tch

that sued her boss over

a little bit of flirting.

f*ck sake.

Aggression is part

of the fundamental makeup

of h*m* sapiens.

It's what allows them

to survive and thrive.

Aggression is activated

when the sapiens individual

feels threatened.

It's also the primary cause

of death among h*m* sapiens.

Good

Morning, Tom and Ani.

It's 8:00am.

No breakfast?

I need to go to work, I'm late.

Oh, yes, sorry, it's Thursday.

Come in, come in,

come in, come in.

I'm so sorry about this.

I was up late last night,

I had a really

important deadline

and I completely forgot

about Miriam's lesson.

Do you want to come in for

a coffee or a cup of tea?

I'll be back in an hour.

Thank you. Bye.

Hey, did you do any

practicing at home?

Why are you sad?

No I'm not.

You look sad.

Is Ani angry with you?

No, why would you think that?

Well, when

she is, you are sad.

When she's not happy,

you're sad too.

Well, she's, no, she's not.

She's not happy because she's...

she's having some

trouble at work.

What trouble?

Her boss wants her

to be his girlfriend.

Does she like

him more than you?

No. No, no, no, of course not.

It's just, he's her boss

and he gives her money.

So she has to be nice to him.

But you

are her boyfriend.

She has to be nice to you too.

Let's play.

Maybe she

likes him more than you

because he has more

money than you.

And he is a boss.

Everyone likes a boss.

He's, like, the

top of all people.

Maybe she wants to

be his girlfriend.

Okay, enough talking now.

Why don't you just practice

on the first verse,

and I'll just, I'll come back,

I just need to grab

something very quickly.

Miriam?

Are you trying to watch TV?

Why aren't you playing?

Because I'm drawing.

Can I see?

Wow, that's...

That's intense.

And who's that?

You.

My dangerous jealousy

When a human individual

starts to fear the potential

loss of their mate,

they might experience

excessive jealousy,

suspicion, despair, and

sometimes even rage.

It can also disrupt

their physical health,

making it difficult to sleep,

eat, or even think straight.

They therefore need to

be approached as reckless

and dangerous to themselves

and their surroundings.

Hey, babe.

Hi.

I have a little

surprise for you.

Voila.

Does this have something

to do with Erik again?

Like you think he has

more money than you

and you need to prove yourself

or something

ridiculous like that?

No, I just, I wanted

to get you something

that you would look nice in.

Where did you get

the money from?

I just got it, okay?

We have bills that aren't paid.

Getting the credit

card into overdraft

isn't exactly helping.

I didn't touch the credit card.

Really, so where

did you get the money?

I got it from my mom.

You borrowed money

from your mom for this?

And you think getting money

from your retired mother,

that we cannot pay back,

to get a necklace

is a good idea?

I really appreciate the

thought, but please send it back

and give your mother

the money back.

Why don't you answer your text?

I mean, clearly someone really

wants to get a hold of you.

After dinner.

But you always

answer your texts.

Not anymore.

So how are things with Erik?

He's busy, I haven't

seen him today.

Seems urgent.

Can wait.

Usually you check your texts

even in the middle of sex.

Let me get you a bandaid.

I'll do it myself.

Fine.

Let me show

you a pressure point

that helps with the tension.

Does it hurt?

Yeah.

That's good.

I mean, it really hurts.

Good, pain is good.

You have to get into the

pain and just embrace it.

I think I should

go back to work.

Pain is only unpleasant

if you fight it, right?

If you're looking

for the band A*DS,

I moved the medicine

cabinet to the bedroom.

Top drawer, next to the window.

Tom?

Tom?

You're not wearing pajamas.

Get on all fours.

What?

I want you on all

fours like an animal.

You're pulling my hair.

You need to go into

the pain, embrace it.

What the f*ck, you're

freaking me out now.

Did you just try

to sound like Erik?

Humiliation being

one of the emotions

h*m* sapiens are

most sensitive to.

So much so that it's

a common form of

punishment and t*rture

in sapien society.

Feeling humiliated

undermines their own identity

and the idea of self.

Consequently, their established

value system crumbles

and they no longer distinguish

between wrong and

right, good and evil.

So our

third and final movement

of the day is the push up,

make sure your hands

are under your shoulders

and lower your

chest to the floor

for 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2.

3... 2...

Shake it out.

A great little workout

that's gonna get you

in the shape you

want for summer.

You're feeling

good, I am as well.

But it's time for a smoothie.

Two cups of almond milk.

And whisk it all up.

It's fresh.

You okay?

Fine.

You're wearing

work out clothes?

Yeah, what's wrong with that?

You do it all the time.

Yeah, but I work out.

You haven't worked out five

minutes in your entire life.

Well, people change.

Yeah, I guess they do.

Speaking of bodies,

don't you think you should take

your naked picture off Instagram

if you don't wanna

be sexually harassed?

What naked picture?

I'm not naked, I'm

wearing a bikini.

One that doesn't leave

much to the imagination.

Are you trying to body shame me?

No, I just think

that it may help you

not be sexually harassed

if you don't showcase

your body online.

You blame me for being harassed?

No, I just think that

if men look at you showing

off your body online,

they might see it as you

looking for a guy to like it

and get ideas.

It's just basic logic.

Why would anyone show

off their body online

if they didn't want others to

find it sexually appealing.

You sound like one

of those wankers

who's blaming the girl's

skirt for getting r*ped.

Good

morning, Tom and Ani.

Please be quiet, I'm up.

It's 8:00am.

Don't you think that dress

is a bit too revealing?

I mean, after all

you are complaining

about your boss

sexually harassing you.

I thought we finished

that topic yesterday.

Maybe not.

I think you

should talk to someone.

I don't air my dirty

laundry in public.

I mean the therapist

you used to see.

Tell her what?

I'm totally fine.

That you have a problem

with your fiance

wearing a dress to work.

The same dress you

bullied her into wearing

just a few days ago

when she was meeting her

boss for the first time.

Let me show you a

pressure point that helps.

Do you feel that knot?

Really slowly.

Okay, I get it.

Press harder to get

the tension to release.

Does it hurt?

Yes.

That's good.

I mean, it really hurts.

Good, pain is good.

I'm good now. I feel

really relaxed. Thank you.

You have to get into

the pain and just embrace it.

I think I should

go back to work.

Thank you.

Pain is only

unpleasant if you fight it.

Someone needs to teach

you how to relax.

Did you see what I sent you?

Yes.

Huh?

Aren't you getting

dressed anymore?

And what?

What do you mean, what?

Erik is a member of that club,

that makes him a real creep.

Why are you

stalking my boss online?

To protect you.

To protect me?

He's dangerous.

Ani, he's a real

sexual predator.

Erik isn't your father

and I'm not your mother.

What does my mother and father

have to do with anything?

You were protecting your

mother from your father.

Yeah, well, she was suffering.

Because of his womanizing.

Yeah, he was out of control.

He was a real sex addict,

there's a difference.

Who was shagging

everyone in sight.

Mainly his employees.

And put your mother

through a lot of

hurt, pain and humiliation.

Look, I've dealt with it, okay?

And now Erik is

reminding you of it.

I've dealt with it, okay?

Doesn't seem

like you have to me.

Look, you're not my therapist.

No I'm not.

You dumped her and now

you rely on your pills

to control your rage.

I loved my father.

Is that where you

almost beat him to death?

Cracked his skull?

Beat his ribs in with a baseball

bat and smashed his jaw?

Don't wait for me for dinner.

Why? Where are you going?

Gym.

This late?

Yeah, I couldn't go earlier.

Don't you need gym clothes?

I got them at the

gym in my locker.

See you later.

What were you

doing in my office?

That was a long workout.

I walked home.

What were you

doing in my office?

IPad charger was broken.

I was looking for another one.

What's that?

Meat.

You've always been vegan.

Only since I met you.

I thought you felt

sorry for the animals

and all that other

stuff you told me.

I only became vegan

because you were vegan

and you said you would never

date a non-vegan, remember?

So you don't feel sorry for

the animals in factory farms?

Not really.

They eat each

other, we eat them.

I was thinking about your

situation with your boss.

Did anything like that

ever happen before?

Like a...

What do you mean?

I was wondering if...

You're fishing for something

and I don't like when people

are prying into my private life.

Oh, I had such a craving.

In the five months that

we've known each other,

have you ever cheated on me?

No.

Good

morning Tom and Ani.

Stop, I'm up.

I might be late tonight.

You've been late

every night this week.

I have a lot of work.

She forgot her keys.

You Bradley Scott?

No, I'm not.

Bradley Scott, not

owner of house?

He is, but he's

abroad at the moment.

We're supposed

to move furniture.

Yes, sorry, he mentioned

someone would be coming

to prepare the house for sale.

Wait, sorry, you

can't take that.

It says we take sofa.

You can't just take her.

We take it.

Don't!

Leave him Andre,

he's no fighter.

Look at him.

Helpless.

Leave him.

Likes to crawl?

He crawl.

Feeling

Feeling of fear

Helplessness

Feeling

Helplessness

is a state in which

nothing an individual opts

to do effect

What is happening?

Helplessness

For h*m* sapiens, as

for other species,

helplessness is one

of the most damaging

and dangerous states

to find themselves in.

Helplessness

Being exposed to helplessness

for a prolonged time,

human individuals

are known to have

k*lled other sapiens

and themselves.

Helplessness

You in a bar already?

Yeah, I finished early today.

I just needed to relax.

I'm not really feeling

like going home today.

This whole situation with

Tom, it's getting to me.

You wanna

hear some friendly advice?

Stop f*cking

agonizing over nothing

and go for that

dinner with your boss.

If it's gonna advance

your career, do it.

It's about you, your life.

Focus on yourself.

Don't let Tom destroy it.

You've worked too hard for this.

Also, if it was me

your hot boss fancied,

I would be f*cking flattered.

Besides, Tom's a loser.

A wannabe artist with zero money

and frankly zero prospects.

Eat some garlic and move on.

Oh sh**t babe, Rich

is on the other line.

Gotta go, talk soon.

What the f*ck?

Installing a

spyware on my phone?

Have you lost your f*cking mind?

What the f*ck did you

think you would find?

I don't know.

Maybe you're f*cking

your boss and

you're telling me some sob

stories about harassment.

You're a psycho,

you're f*cking psycho,

just like your ex boss said.

You went

through my computer.

Yeah, I'm glad I did.

I had a brief affair

with my previous boss.

We had just met and I told you

I didn't want a relationship.

You were f*cking me.

But we were not exclusive.

And with my ex boss,

it was nothing.

It was just sex.

You harassed him.

I didn't harass him.

He fired me because he couldn't

control his d*ck around me.

And I was so angry.

Is that why his whole

family were scared of you?

No, they were scared because

he kept hanging up every

time I tried to call

so he would not fire me.

So his wife clocked

that something was up

and he told her

some bullshit story

about me being a crazy stalker.

Can I have my phone back?

What are you doing?

I'm removing the spy app.

You're telling me

I'm the psycho.

What the f*ck is this?

You're the f*cking psycho.

f*ck!

Where are you going?

You going out?

Yes, it's Ani Scott.

Oh, okay.

No, I didn't know

Erik sent a car.

Okay, I'll be down in a minute.

You're going

out with Erik?

It's just a dinner.

He wants to discuss

my lamp project.

My entire career rides on this.

Please be supportive

and don't turn this

into a jealousy drama.

You're totally smashed.

Why did you

turn off the light?

I can't see anything.

I just got a little bit drunk.

Yeah, you did.

So it was fun, was it?

No, it was awful.

I should have listened,

it was all bullshit.

He was barely speaking

about my lamp project

and he was trying

it on all night.

And then when I got in the car,

he tried to kiss me

and he leaned in.

And I bet you

liked it, didn't you?

What? No.

No? So why would you go if

you didn't want a bit of c*ck?

He clearly wanted to f*ck you.

You knew it.

You went.

Tom...

sl*t!

That's what you are,

you're a f*cking wh*re.

You're scaring me now.

Ani!

Ani, open the f*cking door!

Ani, Ani, open the

door right now.

Please Ani, I just

wanna speak to you.

Ani, open the door.

Ani!

Ani, I just want to

get in and talk to you.

Ani! Ani open the door!

Ani open the f*cking door!

Ani!

Ani!

Ani!

"Thank you for last night.

You were lovely.

Can't stop thinking

about you. x Erik".

You said you didn't

want to kiss him.

You're the one playing your

sexuality to get ahead.

Why are you pointing

a knife at me?

Do you want to hurt me?

You're pointing a

knife at me, Ani.

You're holding a knife too.

I was trying to fiddle with

the locks to talk to you.

Jesus Christ.

Look at us.

I can't do this.

I'm leaving you, Ani.

I can't be with somebody

who brings this on.

I'll go pack my things.

Hey gorgeous, it's Erik.

The company's doing

lay offs this month.

I think it's absolutely

crucial for us to meet

and talk this evening.

My driver will pick

you up at about 8:00pm?

I'm looking forward

to seeing you.

No, I don't want to.

Ani?

We're gonna talk.

People know

me around here.

Ani?!

Stop! Please, please.

Stop, stop, stop!

Ani?!

You like it a bit rough.

Stop, please, please.

999,

what's your emergency?

Yeah, my fiance's being r*ped.

What's

your location?

No, I'm home.

But she's with her boss and

he's the one who's got her.

What's

her location?

I don't know.

How do you

know she's being r*ped?

Because she dialed

me by mistake.

And I can hear them

through the phone.

Okay,

take a deep breath.

Now, what's her phone number?

We'll be able to track

her location that way.

22 Grand Avenue.

I'm sending a van

there right now.

What's the name of the man

you say is the perpetrator?

Erik Mines, it's her boss.

Now calm

yourself and sit tight.

We will get her.

Will you be okay now?

Yeah, thank you.

Yeah.

Okay.

We're here if you need us, okay?

Okay.

Tom?

Tom?

Tom?

I'm too ashamed

to look you in the eyes.

Please forgive me.

I was not able to cope

with my own helplessness

in the face of it all.

And it was easier to

blame you, disbelieve you.

You're not only Erik's

victim, but also mine.

I hope one day you will

be able to forgive me.

Good morning, Ani.

Would you like to take a seat?

Good morning.

Thank you for the

material that you shared.

We just watched it and it

definitely changes everything.

Erik has the best

lawyers in town.

With the

evidence we've got,

he doesn't stand

a chance in court.

I want him to suffer the

consequences for what he did.

I understand.

So we will proceed as planned.

About Tom,

do you think we can

get him to testify?

I don't know where Tom is.

I haven't been able to

find him since that day.

He hasn't come back

to pick up his bags.

Is it

possible that he...

He's not reported dead.

I've called every hospital

and police station.

But is it possible

that the letter he wrote

could have been a suicide note?

It is very important

to the case.

Ani takes

Tom's manuscript,

puts on her red glasses

and starts to read

the last few pages

as the Greek chorus

begins to sing.

The outcome of this

study is as follows.

The victims of a sexual predator

are not only the directly

impacted individuals,

but also their mate and

anyone who loves them.
