[bunniefuu]

Merci beaucoup.

Cheers.

Damn.

JACK

My boss is calling.

-Are you going to work now?
-Yeah, I'm going to...

-What do I do?
-You can't work now.

No, I really can't.
I'll have to call him back.

Damn, he's calling again.
Okay...

-Hello?
-Good morning.

You disappeared yesterday.

Sorry. I got really sick suddenly.
Food poisoning or something.

Ah. But you could have said something
when you left.

Yeah, I really should have.
I'm sorry.

How are you now?

I still don't feel good,
so I think...

I'll stay home today
so I don't infect anyone.

Okay.

I look forward to your new idea.

Yes! Yes, we'll... talk soon.

-Mm. Get well.
-Okay. Bye.

Mm. Bye.

f*ck. Oops. Well...

Hey.

Hey.

Are you leaving?

See you.

TWO SISTERS

Darling?

You know I eat breakfast
at the office.

Yeah, but I thought we could
eat breakfast together today. In bed.

Are you going to start the day
by giving me a bad conscience?

Don't forget a change of clothes
for dinner.

CJ! Hey, man!

We're on our way.
Just running a little late.

But... we're almost there!

-Philip?
-Yeah?

You could've told me everyone
would be wearing hunting clothes.

-Didn't I?
-No. You didn't.

Yeah... I think I did.

Philip! Hey... Is someone
going to be king of the hunt today?

-I'm going to have a crack at it.
-You're betting on it, right?

-Of course. Should we turn here?
-Okay, you turn off there.

Alicia!

Oh, I don't know!
It just goes like this...

Lojsan?

Lojsan?

Damn.

Hey, Fiancée!

Hello!

Hi!

How's it going?

-Did something happen?
-Sorry, I...

-Do you want to sit down?
-Mm.

Okay.

f*cking poser.

DONNA

-Hello?
-Hi, can you talk?

I'm working.

Yeah, in reception.
It's not like you have heaps to do.

It's a lot right now.

I know you're on Insta. You just
sit there on the phone all day.

I know, I see it.

Okay, listen.
Martin was at my place last night.

Mhmm?

-A bit of an after party situation.
-Uh huh?

And we were so f*cking close
to kissing...

Um... but I don't know,
I just like...

I panicked. I choked.
And then he just left.

-Oh dear.
-Oh dear? You don't need to say that.

-Jack said you were sick!
-I am sick.

-I am sick.
-Yeah, right.

What the hell do I do?

You should have kissed him!
Stop being such a poser. Please.

I'm not a poser.

Ring him, invite him for dinner,
tell him to buy condoms. There!

Do you feel better?

Yeah.

You chose some
pretty exciting shoes though.

-Do you think?
-Yeah, unusual for a hunt, but...

Is it your first time?

No. This... is my hundredth time.

-Doesn't it show?
-No, not at all.

No?

A tip: Next time, for your 101st,
you could skip the high heels.

-You think so?
-Mm.

-Martin.
-Hi, it's Vanessa.

Hi.

Hi, I just wanted to check
you got home okay this morning.

Yeah. I did.

Cool. Hey, would you...

like to have dinner
at my place tonight?

Dinner?

Yeah. If you can.

I'll be there.

Awesome, cool.

-Yep. Bye.
-Okay, bye.

ALICIA

This is for you.

Mm.

-I see the ballgown is on.
-Do you like it?

-I love it.
-Thanks.

But you know it's custom
not to outshine the hostess?

-Just kidding!
-Okay. You look great.

Thanks, thanks.

What... what is it?

Can we swap places?

Alicia, you have Phille to yourself
all the time.

Surely I can borrow my best friend
for two hours?

Yeah, I know. It's just that
I don't know anyone here.

It would be better
to sit next to you or Philip.

-Please?
-Okay, I'll swap.

-Thank you.
-But who did I put you next to? Leo?

-Lucas.
-Lucas?

Okay, no way,
that's not gonna happen.

Take a seat!

Cheers!

-Cheers!
-So nice to have you here.

Cheers.

Exactly, you're in Russia now.

-Yeah.
-Are you sure about that?

-I thought he was dead!
-I'm a bit unsure.

There you go. There's vodka in the
glass now. Just so you know.

-You'll need it later.
-Huh?

Only way to handle this.

Okay.

-Promise.
-Cheers.

Speaking of hunts,
the best of them all?

Little Phille and Freddan!

-No.
-Yes!

Make an effort! Hello!

Phille's going to tell us a story!

What? Which one?

Which one? The story!

We were young and learning to hunt.

And it was the first time.

-Little boys becoming men, said Dad.
-Have you heard it?

Like 40 times.

We were given g*ns,

and had to hold them up,
we were shaky like nothing else...

-Oh, god.
-So, we're standing there...

and, um... yeah.

-Yeah?
-I peed myself.

So cute, little Phille!

So cute.

God. Good story! Cheers!

Thanks for that, Lojsan.
Really nice.

Cheers.

-Wow.
-Um...

Don't you want it?

-No, I'm a vegan.
-No, really?

-Mm.
-Why didn't you tell them?

You'll have to...

Do you want my accompaniments?

-Your what?
-My vegetables and mushrooms.

-Oh.
-Take them. At least it's something.

-Maybe they're already...
-No, God.

Of course. Otherwise you'll...

-Cheers, Lojsan!
-Are you sure?

-Cheers to us.
-Cheers.

Hey! Damn.

-There you go!
-Thanks.

Oops, sorry.

I made a ce... um, ceviche.

-Mm, nice.
-It's so spicy, I think I have to...

-I love spicy food.
-Okay, then.

I told you!

It was a messed up chilli.

Want one?

When did you start smoking?

What are you talking about?

Extreme sports? Huh?

Hasn't he told you
he's skateboarding all day?

-Like a little teenager.
-Philip. That's enough.

Right, Lucas? Huh?

It's fine.

Who pays for
your little hippie life, really?

Huh?

Poser.

What are you doing?

You're so embarrassing?

I'm just telling it how it is.

Sure, okay.

Hey, I'm not finished.

I don't care if you're finished
or not! What the f*ck? Philip!

Go and f*ck him then.

Go and f*ck him then!

You've reached Vanessa Berg.
I can't come to the phone...

-Hello?
-Hey, darling, how are you?

It was nothing.

Alicia, what is it? What's happened?

Well...

f*ck! It's so f*cking horrible here!

Alicia, hello?

-They're idiots!
-What's going on?

-I don't know what Philip...
-Calm down, I can't hear you.

...so f*cking wrong. It's just wrong.
And Philip is so f*cking angry.

What has he done?

...my arm so hard
and burned me with a cigarette.

-What?
-...unpleasant.

I can't handle being here anymore.
I have to go.

Alicia, hello?

Alicia!

-Have you got a driving license?
-No.

I have to go. My sister rang...

Something's happened. I don't know,
her boyfriend's psycho.

-Can I do anything?
-I'll be back... in an hour.

It'll be quick.

If you want to wait?
Or, I don't know.

I can do the dishes.

Yes. I'll be back, and...
I'm sorry.

-Hey!
-What's going on?

No idea. She hung up.
But we just have to get her.

What? You're kidding me.

-What are you doing here?
-Picking you up.

-Why?
-Tell me what he did?

-What?
-What do you mean, what?

You don't need...

I called you, I was sad
and wanted to talk.

You call me, hysterical,

saying he's burnt you
with a cigarette, then hang up.

Don't you get that I panic?

-Wait, what have you said?
-I haven't said anything, okay?

Please, just go.

No.

No, now I thought we could stay
for the party.

Donna.

Is it your party?
Can we come in?

It's a private party, Vanessa.

Great, I'm family.

Can't you just leave?

Get out of here!

Let go of me.

Then I'll have a bottle of champagne.

-You're joking, right?
-No, I'm not!

I've driven from Stockholm,
you've ruined my whole evening!

Vanessa, please, let's go.

I'm just gonna finish
talking to her, it's fine.

No, you're not.

You don't think you've
put your sister through enough?

Enough of your bad influence now.

Okay.

It's a shame you're so like your dad.

What, did she say that?

That you keep hurting Alicia with
your alcohol problems all the time.

Vanessa.

-There you go.
-Come on, let's go.

So you told her
that I burnt you with a cigarette?
