Lars And The Real Girl Page #3

Synopsis: In this comedy, Lars Lindstrom is an awkwardly shy young man in a small northern town who finally brings home the girl of his dreams to his brother and sister-in-law's home. The only problem is that she's not real - she's a sex doll Lars ordered off the Internet. But sex is not what Lars has in mind, but rather a deep, meaningful relationship. His sister-in-law is worried for him, his brother thinks he's nuts, but eventually the entire town goes along with his delusion in support of this sweet natured boy that they've always loved.

I just wanted to say that I'm so glad

you're finally here.

Lars, I...

I think right now we...

Yeah, okay. Good night.

Wait, Gus had a good idea.

He's... he's concerned about Bianca's health.

You know just with the traveling, and...

and change of climate and everything...

What stress, you know?

I'll make an appointment with Dr. Birnman

for tomorrow. For early tomorrow.

- We'll all go.

- Yeah, you remember Dagmar?

- You think that's a good idea?

- I do, I think we should do it.

Yeah, that's a good idea, because I was gonna go

shopping for a wheelchair anyway.

- So, good night.

- Good night.

I'll see you tomorrow.

'Real Doll'

Natasha escaped from Moscow,

where she was forced to strip

for the Russian mob.

Now all she wants is

an all American male to love.

Nadori left a high paying job in Tokyo

because she was unsatisfied as a woman.

Tammy dropped out the high school

to join the rodeo.

Are you the right cowboy to tame this wild billy?

The doctor will tell us what to do.

But she is family practice.

We gonna need a shrink.

No, she is.

She's a psychologist too.

She says you have to be, this far north.

What would people think?

We can't worry about that.

Right.

Right there is where my dad used to work.

Our dad.

That's the library. I have a card

you can borrow if you want to.

Well, actually I'll have to take them out for you.

But you just tell...

I don't know actually, Gus...

What was it that dad did?

Water and power.

My job is at the school department.

I miss everybody, but there's

so much to do in the house.

I'll go back, just as soon as

the baby's old enough and... you're...

Yeah sure. 'Readers Digest'.

Then there is 'Living' or 'Country'.

That's what I would say.

Her blood pressure is low.

- Is that serious?

- Could be. I'll have to wait and see.

It's fine.

Mine is probably low too.

I want you to bring her in every week

for special treatment.

Can you do that?

Yeah, are you sure that that is necessary?

- Yes.

- Okay, okay.

What do you think?

All that's what she says, I'm sure.

You can set that up with Jo-Anne,

at the desk.

I look forward to getting to know you, Bianca.

Karin, I'm telling you, he belongs in a hospital.

No.

No. My uncle Garth went to one of these places

and he never came back.

But he needs more help than

you and I are able to give.

I told you that something was wrong

and you wouldn't listen.

If I may?

Has Lars been functional? Does he

go to work, wash, dress himself?

So far.

- Has he had any violent episodes?

- No, never.

He's a sweetheart.

He never even raises his voice.

Okay.

We got to fix him, can you fix him?

I don't know, Gus.

I don't believe he's psychotic or schizophrenic.
