[bunniefuu]

[fairground rides whirring, beeping]

Who are you? Don't bullshit me.

Okay?

- Nothing should've happened between us.
- I couldn't help it.

- Why not?
- I've got no control over it.

- Over what?
- How I feel for you, Greta!

[sighs] Please. Will…

I really don't… I don't understand
what my sister was thinking with all this.

I need to go home.

[car door opens, closes]

[engine switches off]

For you.

It's yours.

[sighs] Forgive me.

Wish it all could've been different.

Yeah, you and me both do.

'Cause this is so…

Crazy. I don't get it.
I thought you were different.

You were right.

[scoffs]

What proof do I have though?

Hm?

So long, Will.

[door slams shut]

[front door opens, closes]

[engine starts]

You went overboard.

- Hey, I'm talking to you.
- No, you went too far, Lucy.

'Cause this guy comes with
a lot of f*cking baggage!

- And you don't?
- Don't compare us. Don't compare us.

I don't understand why
you wanted us to get involved.

- All right, Greta, you're not a--
- Will you quit bugging me?

You're not welcome in my life anymore.
I'll do better alone.

[door slams]

- [groans]
- [door opens]

Mom?

Mom, hey.

Hey there, Sleeping Beauty. Hi! [chuckles]

Hey, what are you doing?

What your sister wanted.

HOSPITAL DONATION

[sniffles]

[Rosi breathes shakily]

You wanna help out?

Yeah.

[crying softly]

WINTER CLOTHES

[sighs]

Are you going to iron
all of these clothes later?

Yes, of course. Don't worry.

There you go.

That's all of it.

Honey, did you take the stuff you wanted?

No regrets. Ready?

We could hold on to this for a few days.

In case you change your mind.

No, no.

It's all right. We're ready.

I appreciate your kindness.
You ready to go?

- Yeah, okay. See you, thanks.
- Bye.

All right, so long.

[sighs]

That was real hard, huh?

So, are you all right?

Yeah. Thanks, Mom.

- Oh, thank you.
- [Victoria] Let's see if you like it.

Done from scratch.
Not so common these days.

- [Greta giggles]
- Your cooking's wonderful, Victoria.

- Please show me how to do these.
- [Victoria] I'd love to.

[Adrian] 60 kilos.

- By March, guys.
- [Rosi] Way to go!

- Thanks a lot.
- Your turn, Pedro.

- [Lourdes] A realistic wish. Name it.
- Uh, yeah.

My wish is, um…
to sleep seven hours straight.

Sounds fantastic.

[Pedro] Here, in October.

'Cause I'll admit, the little one still
comes to sleep with his papa sometimes.

He comes to me.

I don't offer it.

Well…

You know truthfully,
without Silvia, I can't sleep.

- And are you two still in touch?
- Yeah.

- We speak almost every day.
- You know what I do at night?

Jenni, I'm sorry.

No. No, it's all right, Marta. You talk.

Well, at night, I always talk to Toni.

Hm.

You know, I tell him
how the girls are doing and

how I'm doing.

No idea if it's the right thing to do
or not but,

- it soothes me.
- Hm.

- Yeah. It's good for you.
- That's great, Marta, right?

[Lourdes] It really helps. Yeah.

Well, I see Lucy.

It's sort of like she…

[sniffles]

…shows up to hang out with me.

And, um…

we talk about all sorts of stuff.
We argue and everything.

Hm.

Whenever I think I won't…

get to see her again…

[sobs]

…it feels…

absurd.

And sometimes,

it hurts so bad the pain is physical.

Like I'm going to drown.

[sobbing]

We feel our loved ones with us.
They accompany us, don't they?

Throughout our lives.

And we should honor that,
don't you guys think?

But… there's something we need to learn.

And that's letting go.

Hello, my name is Greta Álvarez.

ADMISSION FORM

Most people have no idea
why they came into the world.

But I do.

I was born in order to fulfill
a very specific genetic purpose.

To save my sister.

Greta!

[Greta] I've always felt like a circle
in a world of squares.

I refuse to straighten up though.

I have deep admiration for those
who are able to express themselves

through painting, sculpture, photography.

Greta!

That's why in high school,
I didn't miss a single art history class.

And here's the thing.

For the first time in my life,

I have a wish that
doesn't involve saving my sister.

- Greta! Greta!
- I'd like to major in Art History.

You're probably wondering
why I'm telling you all of this

and I'm well aware
the admissions deadline has passed.

- I figured it was worth a try.
- Greta, we have to go!

By the way, my sister died.

But I know I did everything I could have.

So I'm doing the same thing now.

Sincerely, Greta Álvarez.

SEND

FORM SENT

[sighs]

[chuckles]

Marvel! Marvel, come!

Ana, I'm here for Marvel.

[Ana] Greta, could you come here first?
Over here, sweetie.

- [maid] Thank you. Uh-huh.
- Coming.

Wow, Ana, your friends' dogs are out of
their minds. It turns out, I'll have to--

- Mom?
- Hey there.

You doing anything right now?

Mm. Not really.
But I've got the dogs here.

I'd really like you to come with us.

- I want to take your mother somewhere.
- It's all right. Don't you worry about it.

Ana wants me mixed up in something.

- What?
- Mm-hm.

- No, that's not it at all.
- It is.

No, honey. I'm convinced that
as soon as you see it,

you'll love them and wanna sell them.

Please trust me.

I was hired to sell apartment units.
Young adults are going nuts for them.

Yeah? That sounds great.

See?

You heard her, honey, let's do this.
We'll have fun.

On top of that, no boring paperwork.
The government will do it.

- Why can't you sell on your own then?
- 'Cause I want to work with you.

I always wanna work with you,
you're a great teammate.

[laughs]

- Isn't she a sneaky one?
- [Ana] I'm not!

You're going to love it.

What? This makes no sense.

[phone beeps]

Uh, hey, Grandpa.

I was looking at flights to where you are
but they're crazy expensive.

China'd be cheaper.

WILL TUCKER MESSAGE

Greta, I get that you don't wanna
see me ever again.

But I need you to understand
just one thing.

[phone beeps]

No, sorry.

Not possible.

Hey!

I'm sorry, I had a thing
with another client.

How are you?

- Everything all right?
- Yeah, fine.

I'm hoping Juan's parents
aren't there, right?

Right. No worries.
Only the lawyers'll be there.

- All right.
- You want a coffee?

- Yeah, thanks.
- It'll all be over soon, okay?

- [Will] Did you get the full report?
- Yeah, got it last night.

- Hello.
- Hey, there.

Oh, Greta.

Your father will bring you
to your driving test. All right?

I've got a thing with Ana, okay?

She wants us to go see those apartments.

She's got her heart set on us
working together. She won't drop it.

Sounds good.

So, where's Dad?

He's got this thing at work.
They closed a big deal.

Hm.

Greta. Greta.

I need to tell you this.

You're so admirable.

[chuckles] Wait, why are you saying that?

Because you are.

I'm very lucky, sweetie.

To have a great daughter.

- You think? Your daughter's a train wreck.
- No.

[chuckles] You're truly great.

If you hadn't said anything,
I'd still be lying on the couch.

You did the work, though.

We're both moving forward, right?

Yes.

It's thanks to you.

Um…

Well, I've got something to say too.

Tell me.

I…

I love you so much, Mom.

I love you too, honey.

So much.

[crying softly]

TELL MY DAD I LOVE HIM

- [sighs]
- [phone beeps]

[Will] Greta, I get that you don't
ever wanna see me ever again.

But I need you to understand
just one thing.

I need you to believe me on one thing.
Everything that has happened with you,

everything that I feel being with you,
is real.

- God, what a voice.
- It's real. 'Cause… I know it is 'cause…

I've pretended many times before.

I've hidden what I genuinely felt.

I'm sorry, I don't…

I don't wanna overwhelm you.

But we can't leave things
like this, please.

Let me see you one more time.

[phone beeps]

[groans]

Greta, I get that you don't ever
wanna see me ever again.

But I need you to understand
just one thing.

I need you to believe me on one thing.

[Greta] I shouldn't have had
any coffee this morning.

Yeah, well,
I should have drunk a second one.

Do you have any ibuprofen on you?

You got a hangover?

Uh, I only had two drinks.

- Look at your eyes, though. Dude.
- [sighs]

You're ready.

[man] Greta Álvarez?

- Hi.
- Good morning.

Morning.

Ah.

Okay.

- [man] You good to go?
- [Greta] Almost.

Uh…

[exhales] Now I am.

I think so.

[man] All right, go ahead.

[whispering] Buckle up.

Oh, uh, sh*t.

Hey, sir! I've seen peacocks
way more discreet than you.

Is there anything else you want
to share with the driver before we start?

No, no. Yeah, no. Sorry. No.

Okay.

Start the car when you're ready
and make your way to the road.

He was super serious, he told me,

"In the roundabout, take the fourth exit."

I was like, "What? There are only three."

Then the other guy says,

"You mean the third exit, right?"

The thing is, the exit was too close.
Right in front of me.

The examiner replied, "Yes, yes."

"The third one." But it was too late.
I was passing it.

What did you do?

I had the best answer.

"Great, I'll just go around another time,
in order to avoid a sudden maneuver."

- Wow. You really rocked it!
- [chuckles]

That's fantastic.

Thanks. What about you, Mom?
How'd it go with Ana?

Yeah, so…
Yeah, that apartment complex is great.

It's got some gardens
and co-working spaces.

[buzzer sounding]

- Expecting anyone?
- [both] Mm-mm.

No.

- [Jacobo] Not a single mistake.
- [chuckles]

That's my girl.

[Rosi] Will?

- [Will] Hi, Rosi.
- [Rosi] Ha!

- [Will] Is Greta here?
- [Rosi] Yeah.

She's here, yeah. Come in.

This way. [chuckles]

This is Will. A friend of Lucy's.

You know each other?

- Please come in.
- [Jacobo] Nice to meet you, Will.

Care for some pizza?

We were celebrating.
Greta here just got her driver's license.

That's really great.

No, but thank you. I would just like
to talk to Greta for a second.

[Jacobo] Of course. As you wish.

[sighs]

[Jacobo] Nice to meet you.

Hey, sorry for showing up like this.

You decided what
you wanna do with the game yet?

[sighs]

Probably finish it.

- But I think it's best if I do it alone.
- I get it.

No, no. No, you don't get it at all, Will.

You've been lying to me since we met.

I've never lied to you.

At first, I had no reason
to tell you anything.

And after?

[sighs]

And after… [sighs]

I felt it was better,

to not fill you in.

- It was sorta like…
- Sorta like starting over, then?

- In some way, yeah. It was.
- Hm.

And you love that.

Yeah, you think?

I don't know, Will. I don't know.

[sighs]

It's like I'm always
one step behind the others.

Even my mother knows who you are.

Oh. I saw her a couple times
at the hospital.

Yeah well, whatever.

I just don't feel like I can
do this with you, Will.

You know how to cut yourself off
from your feelings.

Every time I see you now…

it shakes me to my core.

[chuckles]

Well, same here.

When I see you,

it rocks my world, you know.

Since we first met,

at the burger joint.

- Mm.
- For real.

- Of course.
- Yes.

Uh, look, Greta. I didn't…

wanna get involved with anyone.

No let downs.

No falling in love.

It was a lot easier for me
when I was on my own.

Greta, believe me. Please.

Seriously,

aren't you curious
to see how the game ends?

Only two boxes left.

- Just two?
- Just two.

Hm.

- [Greta] This is the place?
- That's what the note said.

To leave you here
and you'll know what to do.

It's like she could read my mind,
it's crazy.

[doorbell buzzing]

Greta?

Hi.

What is it?

Um…

Nothing. Sorry, maybe this was a bad idea.

Wait a sec.

You stopped by to say hi and leave?

Get in here.

Quick or I'll change my mind.

[sighs]

My mom fixed a snack.

She spoils me when I come home.

You didn't take the pics of us down.

I'm barely ever here anyway.

Right.

You look different, Oli.

So, what is it, Greta?

I came to say I'm sorry.

Could you please forgive me
for all that happened?

Not what happened, what you did.

You're right. I'm sorry for doing that.

- Hey, man!
- [upbeat music playing]

Greta?

What the f*ck are you doing?

Oli!

Oli!

Olivia, hey, wait!

Oli! I can explain, wait!

Olivia, come on, please!

Don't you see this guy's a creep?
You get it now?

- Olivia! Oli!
- Leave me alone!

I just wanted to show you
that Sebas is awful.

Yeah, but still. What you did wasn't cool.

I was worried he'd get in the way
of you leaving for school.

He's not the reason
why I was reconsidering.

I just didn't want
to leave my family or my friends.

Like you.

I am so sorry about Lucy.

I called you.

But since you never answered,
I figured you didn't wanna talk to me.

I just…

didn't notice, sorry.

[sighs] I was out of it,
it was a nightmare.

Are you still working at the factory?

And with Tino?

No, those days are over.

I got out of all of that.

- You and Tino are always breaking up, no?
- No.

We did it for real now. Hm.

[chuckles]

Anyway,

- I sorta met this dude.
- Are you serious?

- Yeah.
- Got a photo?

- [blows raspberry] Sure.
- [chuckles]

He was friends with my sister but, um…

- [Olivia] Jesus!
- No. I think it's a mistake, though.

God, that's not a mistake
unless he's your brother.

You're silly.

[Olivia giggles]

His past is complicated.

And now, I'm a little confused.

That's in the past.
What's so wrong with second chances?

Like with us, right?

- [both laugh]
- What?

Nothing.

You don't understand
how much I missed you.

- I missed you too.
- Really?

Of course, so much.

I'm home.

Hey, where were you?
I called you three times.

I was just out and about, Mom.

And you couldn't be bothered
to answer the phone at all?

- Were you out with Will?
- No.

At first I was.
But I don't get why you wanna know that.

- I never tell you anything.
- What?

- Hey, when do I get to meet this Will guy?
- Grandpa!

When'd you get back home?

Since you didn't come to visit me,
I had to come back to see you.

- I would have.
- Sure.

I wanna hear all about your life there.

[Rosi] Yeah, maybe you'll get
more info than I did.

Hey, what else can I tell you, Rosi?
I told you everything's fine there.

You think that's enough?

- I think that sums it up well, no?
- Yeah, less is more.

- Hey! Wait a minute, hang on. Come.
- Ah!

- I got you this.
- Oh, fanny packs!

And this is for Rosi.
I also got her a magnet for the fridge.

Amazing.

You know, I get the feeling
you've got lots to fill me in on, huh?

Well, long story short,
everything's fine here.

- Hey, Rosi, see that? Great summary.
- [scoffs] Sure.

- Cute, you two.
- Ha!

[both laugh]

That app only says, "Your plant
is thirsty or it's been too watered."

- Not great.
- So, you mean the app's not great

- or the compass. But your grandpa is!
- [chuckles]

I mean, thank God for Lucy's game, though.

Right.

- Oh, I got my license.
- Well done!

And I did some traveling.
And I had a talk with Olivia.

- Marvelous! Huge step forward, right?
- Yeah.

And I also sent out an application
for art history. In Rome.

Well, well.

You're not surprised?

About the art history, dear?

Well, no. You've always loved that stuff.

So here's the thing.
You never put yourself first, Greta.

It was always Lucy. She came first.

Well, I wish she still did.

Of course, honey.

But you've had to carry so much
responsibility your whole entire life.

Since birth.

What responsibility, though?
'Cause I was a donor?

No. No.

You offered hope, darling.

She got to live thanks to you.

You made her happy.

[young Lucy] Yeah! Up and down,
up and down, up and down! Yeah!

- Happy New Year!
- [young Lucy] Happy New Year!

[Grandpa] Happy New Year! Happy New Year!
[laughs] Happy New Year!

[dreamy pop music continues]

[music ends]

[sputters]

- Lucy.
- Hm?

Do you think I can do it?

You know, like,
go away to study with a ton of strangers.

In another country.

You've always said you feel like
a circle in a world of squares, right?

Hm.

Well, there's gonna be
lots of circles there.

And rectangles and triangles.

[chuckles]

Rome.

Art.

It'll be the most exciting
time of your life.

I guess.

- I served it to you on a silver platter.
- [laughs] Sure.

- What?
- I'm sorry to say, that's not really true.

- [gasps]
- No.

You know, everything was planned
so you'd believe it was your idea.

- That's 'cause the idea was mine.
- [gasps]

- Fifty-fifty, hm?
- No.

Eighty-twenty.

- Oh!
- Hm.

[scoffs]

Forty-sixty. And only 'cause
I'm super generous.

Yeah, I'm gonna go pay.

- So, what about Will?
- No, don't talk about, Will.

Please don't mention, Will.

All right, here we are.
Let's see if Dad's there.

Dad.

Greta. Greta, honey, wait. Let me explain.

- Trust me, it's not what it looks like.
- Don't you dare talk in shitty clichés.

You're a cheater.

- Here, come. Let's talk.
- Talk about what? Huh, Dad?

Like how all of us are mourning
while you're having a f*cking affair?

Go ahead, sh**t! Tell me now, all right?

- Could you take it easy, please?
- No. I'm not gonna take it easy.

You with her? Hm?

- Greta, listen to me--
- Get off me! Just leave me alone!

- Greta, please.
- Stay away!

- Greta, sweetheart. Just let me--
- Leave me alone!

as*h*le.

[Rosi] How about I talk to her?

- Uh, Greta.
- What?

- Did you tell her the truth?
- We can explain, Greta.

I know what's going on. Mm?

I've known from the start.

Your dad and I are getting a divorce.

We've been separated for a while now.

How is that true?

We didn't know how to tell you
but it's for the best.

Oh, for who? Who's gonna be better off?

- Both of us, sweetheart.
- Yeah, of course you'd say that!

You told me you still loved each other.

Yeah, of course we do.
That's not the issue, Greta.

We've been growing apart for a while now.

- We both need a new beginning.
- [scoffs]

Why is everyone so f*cking focused
on starting over?

- 'Cause do-overs don't exist anyway!
- Let's say a new chapter then.

[exasperated sigh]

Well, I don't get it.

Hey, Greta. Sweetie?

They're running away, Grandpa.

Don't they know it?

[grandpa] If they want to run away,
they have the right to, don't they?

'Cause the two of them
have been through such hardship.

Your mother's so strong, like you.

Don't you ever worry about it. Here.

- Thanks.
- [sighs]

Well, I'm scared.

Of going to Rome and leaving her.

But, honey, she's gonna have to
go through this on her own.

Sure, we can offer her our support.

But in the end,

she has to figure it out for herself.

Mmm. The omelet, what'd you put in it?

Ah! I added some hot sauce.

Hm.

I love it.

It's just that everything's changing
so much and way too fast.

I'm feeling dizzy.

But that's how it goes, Greta.

You gotta keep pushing because
otherwise life has a way of pushing you.

You get it? All right, go on.
Eat. It's getting cold.

I don't have the game here, though.
It's in my trailer.

- I could bring it to you tomorrow.
- Uh, no. No.

No, um…

You should bring it here.
And I'll come pick it up.

Okay?

Yeah.

It's just too much doing it with you,
Will, it's too much.

I was all woozy.

Why was it so hard for you?

'Cause I really like you.

But I've got too many things
to process right now.

I don't trust you.

Yeah, I honestly don't trust you.

Listen, Greta.

I told you all of it.

Everything.

You've gotta believe me.

Sorry, I can't.

I wish I could but I can't.

So just bring the game here for me.

[sighs] I get it.

Here.

Why don't you go get it in my trailer?
It's in the closet.

Things are getting too complicated.
