[optimistic music]
I think it's very dangerous to seek personal fulfillment through a romantic relationship.
I do
I just let you know. FYI.
Uh...
You should not need someone else to validate or determine you I am not supposed to
No, it shouldn't be. No one has to
Oh yeah. Not.
-Do I bring you a drink? - [Jessica] no thanks Drinking is basic AF.
Oh yeah. I think.
I'll bring you water.
- [Jessica] thank you - awesome
-Totes presh. - Presh Totes.
-What? - Presh Totes.
So, uh...
-Have you a long tinder or... - Alright.
I'll stop you there
because I don't love the whole vibration from this interaction so far.
And I'm literally but have my period
for a thousand years, without stopping,
rather than continuing this section from the conversation
Huh?
Have you mentioned something before about wanting to bone?
-Oh. Yes. Yes. - Look here, on Tinder, we match.
-Kanan. - awesome
And then, I texted you, "Hi."
And you say, "S'up?" And I'm like, "Not much."
-And then you say, "Want bone." - "Want bone?" I think I did
-Do you remember that? - I... I think I did. Yes.
So, did you come here tonight? expecting bone?
-Yes. - That won't happen
Now, what happened? Am I doing something wrong?
Somewhat.
Like when I entered, You just shook my hand.
Now, what should I do?
I don't know Maybe you should have, like,
reaching for my shoulder,
and whispering something real sexy in my ear -What like? - [Jessica] Like...
"Go to the bathroom and take off your underwear
I want to kiss them."
And you will definitely do that if I tell you to do that?
Maybe. I don't know
There is a big chance I will have just pressing you on your ding-a-ling.
[Jessica] But who knows?
It's kind of in this strange phase of transition in my life
where I don't know what I'll do next
-I will experience a very bad farewell. - [man] Oh.
-Yes. It sucks. - Yeah.
That's the only reason why are we here now
-What does it mean? - Usually he comes on Friday.
So I hope that he will catch us together,
and then he will panic
-and become like super destroyed. - What are you waiting for?
God. He is here. He is here.
-He is here now. - Are you kidding me? Is he here now?
Oh, my frick. He brought a date, and he was very hot.
I don't even know He likes girls like that.
- Don't turn around! - What do you want me to do?
I don't know Acting like we will have sex later.
How do you act like you will have sex?
Be sexual. Do you want me to have this thought for you?
- Draw it - I...
Hey, Jess.
Hey, Damon.
[Jessica] It's nice to see you've moved.
After only two and a half months is not dating
Three and a half months actually. But...
Hi. I am Heather I'm sure you
What do you mean?
-You tell me. - [Damon] Yeah Um...
We will go eat out.
-But, mm, nice to meet you, Jess. Honestly. - [Jessica] Mm-hm.
I wish I could say the same to you. But, I can not.
Because you broke my heart into a million small pieces.

[sighs] Alright, let's try another one.
I want you to think about not feeling anything.
And, I mean, really thinking about it.
And I want you to write a paragraph on it for next week's class
Four minimum sentences. Do you think you can do that?
Do I have to?
This is theater, Shandra.

What?
[metal door squeaks]
[optimistic music]
[music continues]
[sighs]
What do you bastard know? Hm?
[sipping]
"Oh, it's okay. We are only collectively responsible
for success from every great dramatic writer
in the last 100 years."
[deep breath]
Oh well. Strict.
[funky music]
[Jessica] I can forget we are not together.
Really, I can.
Look at me. I'm tall, I'm beautiful, I'm smart.
I am a Coco queen.
Obviously, I will have a lot of great love in my life.
It's just...
I feel like I lost my good friend and it really sucks.
-Is that for guests? - [Jessica] yes
Alright. So, are we done here?
- [Tasha] Hi. - Hi.
-What are you doing? - Oh, yes.
-This is what I want. - No, no, no.
We should serve this item.
-It's very good. - Mm-hm.
You know, when you invited me Come here,
I thought I would be a guest, not a service.
This is a ticket for $ 500. And I think you need money.
-I need money. - You will get us both fired.
Calm down, kid. These are my people. I blend.
Okay, this is like, old money, theater-subscription Manhattan.
This is not your people.
Have you talked to them about Damon?
Yes, yes, but...
I'm going through the process now.
Okay, I stand in my own truth.
-Dude, you need to get out - I'm out.
No, no, you need to date. Own.
Ew, no Dating is the worst. Have you really seen a man eat?
Like, there was never anything worse.
I've seen live births before.
And it's still not close to a man eating a chicken
God! I really know someone -Is he cute? - [Tasha] yes
What's the deal?
She's divorced.
Tasha, there's never a redder flag.
That's perfect. You can just rebound directly from each other.
To each other and each other, and like...
-Are you talking about sex? - [Tasha] Hetero-ing... Yes.
- [Jessica] how old is she? - thirty Tops. Maybe a little older.
And he failed in marriage?

-What do I think we are here? - [Damon] I don't know

[Damon] Then, Oprah came out.

I'm just waiting The right place for the right time, so I can make my mark
I don't know anything about theater.
This is pretty much what I care about.
Now that's good.
That you commit to something you love
Why are you divorced?
That was a fairly brutal transition. Isn't that so
No offense, but I don't even know If I want to be here right now.
Oh, wow, why am I offended by that?
I don't know, Tasha thinks this will be good for me.
To help me deal with this person I think I'm in love with.
But, to be honest, everything made me think about it more intensely.
[Boone] Oh, huh? How?
I just really reminded of how much he didn't.
cool.
I mean, I understand.
Um...
You are the exact opposite for my ex-wife Is he Stupid, short and fugly?
What I mean is...
compared to him, you are far more...
frankly.
Honesty is the only thing is important to me
Oh yeah. I believe in honesty.
- [Jessica] really? - Mm-hm.
So, can we be really honest? one another?
Right.
[clinks]
[soft thud]
Why are you here?
Well, it's been a long time since my divorce Bleh.
And I think if this goes well, then we can see later.
Do you just want to look out?
Why did you say that you thought You fell in love with your ex?
I don't know This is complicated.
We were together for two years, and then he just gave up on us.
I'm sorry. That must be rough.
Why are you married?
I think I'm in a hurry to continue my life What's wrong?
I'm still thinking about that.
But I'm sure it's his fault.
[laughs]
You have a nice smile.

Who can backflip? Just kidding. Don't do it, that's accountability.
Hands in the sky. High, high, high. Climb your index finger.

Marriage is an outdated social construction however.
-I don't care I don't care - [Kayla] I don't care [finger button] [Jessica] I don't care. I don't care I don't care Alright, guys, good work today.
Also, don't forget that I need your permission for the weekend our author came.
And I haven't got anything from anyone except Shandra.
Seriously, don't forget to ask your parents
Or I will do it myself. I will make it weird.
Kayla? Seriously.
Hey, Ms. James?
Hey.
[Jessica] You're fine
I can't go to the writer's weekend.
What? Why?
Shandra, no, you're the only one who gave up your permission.
I'm sorry.
Did someone pick you up?
I want to see... Oh, here it is.
Excuse me. Are you Shandra's mother?
Yes.
Hey, I'm Jessica James.
I know who you are.
Okay, uh, said Shandra something for me before
about him maybe it didn't make author's weekend next month?
-Yes that's right. - He can't miss that weekend.
Well, unfortunately, he must do it.
- [Jessica] why? - Complicated.
It's just a very big problem. Sarah Jones will be there.
Listen, I don't know who Sarah Jones is, But Shandra can't go.
[Jessica] He is an amazing playwright. He, like, won Tony.
Help me, when you get home, google Sarah Jones TED Talk
-Good. Come on. - Seriously, why can't he make it?
Well, if you have to know,
Shandra's father took her and her brother to Six Flags that weekend.
I'm sorry, mother Shandra.
That is the stupidest thing I've heard
This is his father's weekend.
This is this weekend where they really wrote their drama
Do you know how long it will take to reach a custody agreement with my ex?
Two years.
[Mistress. Phillips] Two years, six lawyers, and $ 34,000.
We just signed a deal last week.
He got that weekend.
Do you mind if I talk to him?
You kind of sucks, right?
Yes.
[beeps] [Jessica] Hey, uh, Mr. Phillips.
This is Jessica James from the Children's Theater Project.
I just called because...
Well, because I'm 25 years old
and I haven't completely broken by life yet.
But I also hope to try it and convince you to rethink the taking of Shandra to the Six Flags
during the author's weekend.
And I know from talking to Mrs. Phillips
that you all have a very difficult time in the last few years
and that you just reached a custody agreement
I don't want to be bored, but I just want to say it
do I know what is being experienced by Shandra?
I think it can really empower it to sort out everything that is really confusing and scary emotions
and change it to something good.
And, look, I know a lot of people say Theater is a dead form of art
done by rich people for even richer, and...
[chuckling]
I guess I agree with that to a certain extent, but...
I still really believe it.
I think it has the power to change lives.
I mean, it really changed mine.
So, Mr. Phillips, please help Let him come to the writer's weekend?
I promise I will not regret it.
[phone vibrates]
-Bapak. Phillips? - [Boone] Hey. Not. Uh, that's Boone.
-Who? - Yeah. We have dinner.
Remember? We, um, live in my place and we have dessert?
The person who is divorced.
Oh wow. Dirt.
Sorry, I forgot your name.
No, of course, that is understandable.
Eh, how are you?
This, um, is kind of a strange moment for me.
But... I think I'm fine.
what about you - Oh, I'm great Thank you for asking.
Listen, I'm having fun last night.
God. Is this a boot call?
[laughs] No.
No no.
Do people still say spoiled calls?
This is really a booty call.
Oh, Boone.
Okay, I think it's a kind of booty call.
But I enjoy spending time with you.
Only because you catch a unicorn in the wild does not mean you can use it whenever you want, friend
Do you call yourself a unicorn?
Maybe.
I'm not aware of unicorn very arrogant [chuckles]
All right, look, we can take a walk.
But only if it's in my environment. And that's it.
Good. Cool.
I'll, um, I'll take it
[Jessica] Okay. Now, don't forget. We just really walked...
[metal clangs]
- [Jessica] Boone, are you okay - I'm fine.
- [Jessica] are you sure - Huh?
Do some trash cans fall on your end? Is that your end?
- [Jessica] Ew. What? - Oh, no, I don't know.
Okay, I'll see you soon.
[optimistic music]
[Police sirens blaring in the distance]
-So this is it, eh, this is Bushwick huh? - Yeah.
-It's pretty good right? - very pleasant So, when will they burn it? [laughs]
Well, not all of us can live in the environment where you get people's pickle shop in every corner
Everyone I've seen In this environment, so far,
Looks like they work at a pickle shop.
That's right.
So, I think my wife has started to see...
My ex-wife has started meeting someone.
Oh, Boone.
Is that what you want to talk about? right now? Very?
- [Jessica] Come on. - I'm struggling -How are you? - Instagram bad luck.
-Oh no. - [Boone] Yeah

Oh, you know, not often.
-Yeah, almost every time you wake up. - [Jessica] Yes, me too.
-Do you still talk to him? - No, I don't want to talk to him.
Do you only want to obsess about what he does online?
-Yes. Yes, of course. - Don't think it's very healthy.
Now, that came from a man who checked his wife's Instagram?
like a thousand times a day.
-Oh, right, that's - Yeah.
Hey, what do you think will happen if you don't follow it?
I don't know What do you think will happen? if you don't follow it?
To be honest, I will feel relieved that I don't need to see
So many pictures of food in my time
Oh, is she one of those women? Who posts food photos all day long?
This is the worst. How can you marry someone like that?
Well, to be fair, he is an award winning food photographer
-Oh, that's kind of cool. - [Boone] Yeah
Hey. I will do it, if you do it.
What do you do? - Unfollow my ex.
-Are you serious? - Yeah.
Yes, this is really good Actually, we have to do this.

[Jessica] How about you?
Yeah, I have this stomach - full of regret.
Oh, shit.
Now, what if we follow? are each other on Instagram?
That way, we can tell others If something big appears.
That's a good plan.
-Yes. - [Boone] Let's do it
-Okay, what's your name? - At Damon Johansing.

[optimistic music]
[rustle]
Tasha, are you sitting?

Congratulations?
You don't sound excited, but I will accept it
Oh, I don't know. This is a rejection.
Yes, but this is personalized rejection letter
Get this
"Although it is fluent and often the funny nuances of your work,
it is not right for the Playwrights horizon at the moment."
Wow! It is...
I don't know what that is. What is that? That...
It's amazing.
Do you know how much the form of rejection letter I got
from less-known theater companies and scholarships this year?
Team Sanford from the Playwrights horizon read one of my dramas
and he gave me an encouraging response.
This is very big
Oh, that's really cool.
[Tasha groans]
-Are you masturbating now? - [Tasha] Yeah
Okay, next time I call you when you do that,
-Just don't answer the phone. - [Tasha] okay Good to hear that.
[groovy music]
What are you doing here?
You are blocking me Wow. That's fast. How do you know?
I only have 70 followers on Instagram and Twitter, combined, so...
Alright, I'm not smart, smart idea
that I like to share with the world like other people
I just don't understand why are you blocking me
Wow, Damon, it's not like that we're together again Then? That means we can't be friends on Facebook?
No, I don't think we can. No, no, we can't.
I don't understand.
I don't understand, how can one minute fall in love,
and the next minute we are less than strangers
What do you ask me
Yes. I ask you a question.
I don't know I don't think it will be a big deal.
Very? You are blocking me
I think, quietly, I kind of wish that you will see,
but I don't want you to get all the bends of the form about it.
It feels like deep down, You wish we would never meet.
I guess I kind of wish we didn't meet.
- [Damon] no, don't do it - I do
Don't negate everything we have
just because you don't like it the way it ends
Well, why not?
-Because it's good. - And it turns out it's not.
Now, why do you think that?
-I don't know. You tell me. - [Damon] Oh, wow!
You acted like that...
You don't realize how frustrated it is, how hard you are,
-and stubborn sometimes. - I'm not stubborn Okay, do you want me to explain to you why it ended?
Yes, that would be great if you can.
Good.
This ends because of you...

Yes. And I also want to add to the rules of this game.
Yes. This game is the rule.
And I'm happy to be able to play it because your class is super attractive.
[children laugh] [Jessica] yes
And the above is very interesting,
they have really, too, the brain is really great
Yes. They have great brains.
And I know because it just happened to be to become a brain-eating zombie who love children's brains.
[Jessica] yes I know that [children laugh]
And there is something I have to say to you.
I am a zombie killer. [Tasha gasps]
Yes, you are.
And we have long hostilities going back...
century, and century, and century. [Jessica laughs]
[Jessica] Yes, and for some reason, seems like we are always circling
That's why we have been hostile for a long time.
Yes, this is a cosmic dance between two people
[Jessica] Two people who don't know how to fight
I am your main enemy! But I came here today to tell you...
that I love you. [Jessica gasps] [optimistic music]
[phone vibrates]
-Hello? - [Boone] Hey.
-This is Boone. - Who?
Just kidding. I know who you are. What is wrong?
[chuckles] I just, um, called to tell you
Damon finally started watching Sopranos
and he thinks it's pretty good.
Good. OK.
That's very useful information for me to know
Thank you very much for telling me.
I don't know what took him so long. This is a great show.
I don't know I feel like watching
a group of morally corrupt dudes do a number of things,
I can, like, literally, Leave my apartment at any time.
[laughs] Yes, that guy is terrible.
geez. By the way, I love your ex-wife's Instagram.
The photos are very good.
Food photography is indeed art. This is just nonsense that I don't care about.
Yes. Porn food is one of my two favorite porn.
What is your other favorite porn?
Humans.
It's good porn. That's a good form of porn.
Also, um, I wonder what did you do until this weekend?
You are you Yes, I am. [Jessica laughs]
I, um, I'm really going to be in Ohio for my sister's baby shower
Oh, a lot of new information there.
What, you from Ohio?
Yes. Me, unfortunately
It's strange I know more about your ex than you do.
Yes. I guess that, huh?
Maybe...
um, when you go back to town, we can go on the actual date?
Now, that depends, Boone. What do you think about true dating?
Hot dogs and laser tags?
-I am I busy? - I am joking.
Something brilliant. [Jessica chuckles]
No, we will, um...
We will have fun, I promise.
Yes, sure.
I'll go on a date with you. It sounds fun-ish.
Oh well. Okay, thank you.
[laughs] Can you call me?
when did you return to town?
And, uh, bring me some more potatoes.
-That is Idaho. - That is.
Did they grow something in Ohio?
Just weird Now, bring me back some strange people.
Will do.
-Bye, Jessica. - See you later [Mandy's girlfriend] Boone?
Who wants to know?
[Mandy's girlfriend] Listen, man, I...
I don't want to make this weird or anything, but, um...
Mandy sent me here to see if you want, like,
come up and talk or what.
[Boone] what? Why?
[Mandy's boyfriend] We saw you here circling around the block, that...
This is sad, man.
I am what...
Now, you can tell Mandy
that I happened to be on the phone, arranged a date with a girl, a woman,
who is a great playwright from Ohio.
I don't even know that I'm in your neighborhood.
Yes, no, I won't tell it all of that
Good. Don't tell him. I do not care.
You know, he still has a lot of love for you
Oh, he did it, right?
He still has many things dear to me Yes.
Did he say that?
Hey, look, I know it's hard, man.
I experienced divorce myself years ago.
I'm not... I'm not aware.
I'm sorry. What did you say your name for?
Oh that's true. I do not care.

What is your type?
Dialogue drama is encouraged which explores the human condition.
Oh.
Uh, is there something like that? playing next month?
Things that are really great are a bit and far between.
Theater is in a very problematic situation in America now.
Most of the garbage, like,
You will be surprised by who they allow to do shows on Broadway.
Or, I heard the Cat just opened
and that should be good.
Oh, I have heard good things about that one.
[laughs] Oh, good, thank you.

Oh, "P is for Peaches. A singer is a performance artist,
who challenges the traditional concept of gender identity."
[Jessica] I drew the picture myself.
[gasps]
-Wow. This is amazing, Jess. - [Jessica] thank you
I think it's never too fast, right?
What's not too fast for?
To start questioning the system.
What system
The system that we all obey.
[gasps] I'm not jailed in any system.
You only...
pretending to eat shit from diapers, so...

[Jessica] Here's your idea for fun?
No, this is my nightmare.
I just, for some reason, I think you will be better at that.
I am flattered and offended. [Boone snickers]
No, I just... I can't believe you haven't ever skied.
I am six feet tall since I was 12 years old
I never thought, "Oh, let me install some of these wheels."
[Boone laughs]
-You are great. - I don't
Do you want to try without baby items?
I don't want to let go of this.
Everyone is crazy about you.
Nobody did it
Come on, take my hand I'm strong here. [Jessica scoffs]
You got this It's not a risk.
-Okay, alright. Well. - Trust me.
[Jessica] Hm...
[both laugh]
-Good. - Okay, that's good
-Good, doesn't that taste good? - it's okay, so...
[both gasp] Whoa. OK.
[laughs] I got you.
You're good.
[Boone] Oh! [both laugh]
[thuds]
[Boone groans]
Um...
I also bring a picnic.
[Jessica chuckles] Tight.
[Jessica] It's like what you did on the first date?
[Boone laughs]
[Boone] Yes.
So, tell me about your application.
God.
Okay, I'll tell you, but you have to promise not to judge me.
Is that a Tinder for people who have herpes?
[Boone laughs] What? Not.
-That's not a bad idea, by the way. - right They must, like, date somehow.
No, I'm called "Hi, Mom."
-you ever heard of it? - Not.
Basically, we make it appear
like you keep in touch with parents or anyone,
without you having to keep in touch with parents or anyone
[Jessica] That's crazy.
How do you do it?
We study user, and social media text feeds.
And we produce weekly personal messages
with their own voice from their own cellphone number.
What is typical is, "Hi, ma'am. I just thought about you. [laughs]
That's amazing. You are like a genius or something.
-You don't think it's terrible? - No, I think it's rubbish.
[chuckles] [Jessica] But it's cool if you do it.
-It's awesome - thank you
Do you think I can get a hook up for like my mom and my sister?
-How to think about you? - do you know guy Yes.
[both laugh] Yes, I, sort of, know a man.
How about you? Tell me about one of your games.
Now, let's change the subject.
Not me... I think theater is all you care about.
- [Jessica] This - So what happened?
Uh...
Do you remember when I mentioned it Like that there a handful of theater companies who are interested in my work?
Yes.
I lie.
I see...
Oh, shit. I found something that you feel insecure.
What? I'm like I'm not sure about everything.
-You hid it well. - [Jessica] Well...
I only like theater.
You know, I feel like I like it
the way most people love like sports or food
- [Boone] Oh, I love food and sports. - Yeah.
- [Boone] Do you like it so much? - Yes, I did
And I've been like that since I was little.
I love everything about it. I like to read it.
I like watching it even when it's bad.
I like to teach it. I especially like making it.
I just... I like everything.
[Boone] That's great. So, what's the problem?
I don't know if it loves me back
and that scared me.
[Boone] Come on. I'm sure you love you again.
No, I have a full wall A refusal letter that begs is different.
-I would love to read it. - [Jessica] what? Rejection letter
No, I really want to read it from your drama
Maybe, I will think about it and come back to you You will be happy to share it with a room full of strangers,
But for me, you have to think about it.
Yeah, well, it's different to share it with someone you know This is very intimate.
I already knew I'd like it.
Okay, don't do it.
If I show my item, and if so,
you have to promise me that you will be honest
Honesty is like I care about.
Is that so? an impression from me?
[Boone] Oh, it sounds like you, I guess.
Yes, indeed, a little.
[funky music]
Now, here I am.
Yes. I know. I've, uh, spent tonight here, remember?

-You are like a beautiful skater. - Thank you.
I have a teacher who is very terrible.
-So, it's very fun - You are a great lover.
Well, please don't call me lover. [Boone laughs]
That's disgusting.
What's the problem?
I might look for you, like I have my dirty stuff together But, um...
I just got out of marriage eight months ago
And everything is just a little bad luck.
Boone, you're not so It looks like you have it together.
And, neither do I.

I kind of saw someone now.
Well, do you want me to fight him? Because I will hit it properly...

[somber music]
[Jessica] Okay.
Close your eyes and open your mind.
We will play another game.
Except this game won't be as easy as the others.
Why not?
You will see.
Are you ready?
[sipping]
This is your birthday,
and you are in the car with your parents.
[Davion] My parents don't have a car.
[Jessica] Then use your imagination.
Okay, I'll imagine I'm at Ferrari.
Okay, good.
[Jessica] Throughout the year, you've been -telling anyone who wants to listen
that's what you want for your birthday is a dog
And you think that you are on your way to the pet store to choose one from now.
But what you don't know does your mother just know
that he will have another baby.
And your parents have already stretched their money to ensure that they can pay for your college education
You don't know all this yet because you're just a child
and they work very hard to protect you from that
But, unfortunately, this creates a lot of tension between them.
Sometimes, you hear them shouting each other late at night
when they think you're sleeping
And that really scared you.
Now your father, being an arrogant person and an impractical man is he,
really want to make you this dog
even though he knows that you can't afford it.
And your mother frustrated her for this because she also works.
And he knows he will go must quit his job
to care for this new baby
Wow. I don't know many things so tight.
My parents may have to sell this Ferrari.
Davion.
Cool with Ferrari, okay?
[Jessica] now
Imagine that you are a father.
You drive a car and you look in the rearview mirror,
and you see your child with this big dopey smile on his face.
I don't have a stupid smile.
You are right, you have a beautiful smile.
Thank you.
Now, imagine that you are the mother.
You are in the passenger seat...
and you see sadness go to your husband's face
when you pass a pet store.
What? We are passing the pet shop? Where are we going?
That's a good question. Where are we going?
I don't know This is your game Yes, but it's up to you to decide where we go next
[Shandra] Uh, hey.
- Miss. James? - Oh, hey
What are you doing here? Where is your mother Oh, he's waiting for me round the corner.
Is everything okay?
Well, my father got your message.
Can you tell it I apologize for that?
He told me to tell you that he was happy that you have not been broken by life.
And, uh, I can go to writer weekends.
-What, are you serious? - [Shandra] Yeah
Yes! Yes yes
[Jessica] yes Yes. Yes.
This is amazing. This is the best news I've heard in a few weeks.
I'm very happy.
-This will be great - Hah. Yeah, yeah, good.
What's wrong? [Shandra sighs]
My father still brings my sister to six flags
[Jessica] So?
Is that so? Six Flags seem pretty awesome.
Are you kidding me?
I thought you were serious about this program?
me.
Obviously not, if you will ditch, so you can ride a roller coaster.
I don't know I haven't thought about it yet.
Do you know what? Forget it. Just do whatever you want, Shandra.
Why do I have to care if I don't?
I didn't say I didn't care.
Obviously, you don't. I have to go.
[Shandra] Wait.
Are you angry with me?
I'm not mad at you. I'm just really disappointed.
Listen, you have to go This weekend, writer, okay?
If not, I will be very hurt if I don't.
That's not fair!
Wake up, Shandra. Since when should life be fair?
Do you know what? Whatever.
I will send a postcard from Six Flags.
[door bell]
[Boone] Came
Hey.
Cancel calls What are you doing here?

- [Boone] yes - where is your shirt?
Okay, yes. Forgive me.
But you, more than anyone, must realize how it feels
to have history with someone
That feeling doesn't just evaporate.
Yes, no I understand.
Nothing works, people disappoint you, and you should never trust anyone.
I have known since I was little.
We are married, Jess.
Our family saw us say, "Until you die, separate" together.
I mean, this...
It's a little bigger than just saying, "Oh, maybe I'm in love with this person."
geez. Wow, I'm sorry
I am not aware of my feelings is not as accurate as yours -That's not what I meant. Forgive me. - [Jessica] okay
-That... - Wait a minute. You are windsurf

This is it.
There is nothing more than that.

I'm here to apologize.
What about?
I'm really sorry for making you feel bad
about wanting to spend time with your father
Do you mind if I sit down?
Now, this is a very cool room.
Thank you.
I thought a lot about you this weekend.
I thought about how it was difficult 11 years old
and ask your parents to negotiate through a lawyer to spend time with you.
- And my brother - [Jessica] yes
And your sister,
and I understand how It can make you feel invisible.
[Jessica] You feel like you are forgotten, and...
You know, I experienced the same thing when I was little -You right? - Yes I did it.
Unless my parents never get it together.
Finally, they just asked me and my sister to choose
which we want to spend more time with
Hm. Who do you choose? My mother.
But it's not because I love him more.
You know, I really love both of them from my parents
I just thought that my mother would have a harder time without us.
And that really broke my father's heart.
But you also never got the dog, Are you?
No.
That's sad.
I brought you back something.
Wow.
This is very beautiful. Thank you.
I would really like it to help you work on your game.
Well that's how it is. Sure.

As soon as I know the news.

Wait a minute.

No.
Not a mermaid.

[applause]
Hello.
My name is Banana McClain, and today is my birthday I told my parents that I wanted a puppy for my birthday,
but I will also be happy with turtles.
We are on our way to the pet shop now.
I hope they don't try and get me a carp.
You can't curse or hug goldfish.
[audience laughs]
[Tasha] I'm not sure if you can get a pet or hold a turtle,
But at least the turtle has a personality.
I think it's important for pets to have personality
That's why I want a puppy.
They look like they will be kind, and loyal, and pleasant.
Of course, I think there's a chance I won't get a pet at all.
And do you know what? It's okay too Because birthdays aren't about getting something
They are celebrating what you have, and what I have is pretty good
Because the day is beautiful
and I am with those two people
And later, we have a cake. And I like cakes.
[audience applauds]
[mouth] You are fine. Are you alright.
[Jessica] Thank you very much for coming.
Hey, that's great.
You are very kind. You are great You are very good
Of course. Hi.
-Hey, Jessica. - Hey
-Hai. - Hi.
[Tasha laughs]

I'm not too above?
No, you are perfect.
[sighs] Thank you.
I think it's a great character.
Thank you very much for my casting No, you... you are amazing
[Jessica] You are very kind.

-What? - Don't look behind you Don't, don't.

[chuckles]
- [Damon] see you - See you later.
There seems to be a positive interaction.
Do you know he will be here?
-I don't know. That is shocking. - [Boone] I'm sorry I can just warn you. He installed it on Twitter three days ago.
You might be able to stop following it on social media, by the way.
-Yes? - [Jessica] yes
Are you sure you are ready for that?
I think so.
Well, I think you might have to Stop following my ex too, then.
I don't know if I can.
- [Boone] Food photos? - He really knows how to handle bananas.
Hey, I, uh, I read your drama.
-All of them already? - [Boone] Every page
And?
You are a very complicated person I know. Forgive me.
No, don't...
You don't need to apologize for that.
There are many other things You can apologize.
[giggling]
geez. I forgot to tell you.
-I will go to London. - What?
Theater Donmar wants to do it a stage of reading one of my games.
[Boone] That sounds prestigious.
Yes I know. This is like a big problem.
[Boone] Good! [PDAM]
Good work. [Jessica snickers]
-Do you ever been to London? - No, not yet. How is that?
[Boone] Oh, this is the best. You will have the right time.
You know, me, um...
I have many frequent flier miles.
You know, only if you want it to bring someone with you
to show you around the city
How does it work?
-How do you work? - [Jessica] Frequent flier miles.
[dings]
Dude, I can't believe your girlfriend bought us a ticket to London
Okay, who said anything about him being my girlfriend?
Wait. What are you talking about?
This is like the most romantic gesture I've ever seen.
Yes, it's drugs.
But it takes more than one pair round-trip ticket to London
for someone to be my child.
That's how the boss is.
- [Shandra] What's the boss? - Uh, Jessica
Oh, yeah, duh. [dings]
[woman at P.A.] Flight officer, please tighten your seat belt
and prepare to take off.
It's very cool from your parents to let you come with us to the workshop.
Now, it's really cool from your girlfriend to get me a ticket too.
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa. You.
Just because a man buys a woman several round trip tickets to London
does not make him his girlfriend.
Did you know that I introduced it?
[chuckles]
You know, I like your jumpsuit.
Thank you.
Yes, this is very bad, isn't it?
