Mr. Nobody Page #3

Synopsis: In the year 2092, one hundred eighteen year old Nemo is recounting his life story to a reporter. He is less than clear, often times thinking that he is only thirty-four years of age. But his story becomes more confusing after he does focus on the fact of his current real age. He tells of his life at three primary points in his life: at age nine (when his parents divorced), age sixteen and age thirty-four. The confusing aspect of the story is that he tells of alternate life paths, often changing course with the flick of a decision at each of those ages. One life path has him ultimately married to Elise, a depressed woman who never got over the unrequited love she had for a guy named Stefano when she was a teenager and who asked Nemo to swear that when she died he would sprinkle her ashes on Mars. A second life path has him married to Jean. Their life is one of luxury but one also of utter boredom. And a third life path has him in a torrid romance with his step-sister Anna, the two who,

went out the balcony to see you...

But you didn't see me.

If you'd looked up,

you would have seen me.

- My telephone number...

- I have it.

I have to go now.

- What is your name?

- Julia.

Julia...

I haven't felt like this before.

You are the most beautiful girl

I have ever met.

The most beautiful

girl in the world!

No, no!

If they wake up...

If they hear you...

One kiss and I'll leave.

Just one kiss.

Go now.

One more

(In Albanian) First you run away and

then you bring your steady here!

So everyone in the neighborhood

should learn that you are a slut.

I sweat all day

at the construction sites,

and both of you became outcasts!

Why? Why?

What's up, man?

Was it the rat's sister the one

you're head over hills with?

I didn't know she was his sister.

And when you found out?

Something changed?

What's up, a**hole,

are you totally mad?

you think you'd become

a lawyer and f*** the rest of us?

How do you know he is

the one who gave you to the cops?

Before jail, you pushed drugs to

everyone. Anyone might have been.

Correct, wanker!

- It could have been you maybe?

- Cut the crap!

What are you staring, wanker?

Are you the rat?

Tell me, you prick,

did you tell the cops?

F*** you,

I'm sick of this bullshit, car

races and Albanians and sh*t!

You may be pretending

to be a local but...

deep down inside

you are still the same guy.

Take it easy with the girlie.

It's gonna get worse with them.

Worse than what?

Motherf***er...

Like the guy in the cell.

- What guy?

- You're leaving us one day at a time.

And you're leaving us

f***ing quickly.

I'm gonna sit and watch.

You've got nowhere to go!

He didn't f***, man...

it's hard...

Get lost or I'll f*** you

first thing in the morning!

Who told you this sh*t, that

the nose gets soft when you...

It's scientifically confirmed,

squeeze mine.

It's because of the black chick,

yesterday.

Now, tell me about the sister

of that Albanian rat.

Is her p*ssy tight or not?

He doesn't answer to this kind

of questions, he is a gentleman.

Guys, cut the bullshit with Albanian

and stuff, cause you pit against me.

After all, we don't know that this

nice guy told tales on me, do we?

What do you want now, huh?

(In Russian)

Let's hit the road now!

Coming or you have to check

whether you're having your nails done...

or a golf game?

Come on, pal...

I told you!

I was with the kids from school.

Really?

I hear other things.

They told me they saw you

leaving the club with a Russian.

Is he the one who climbed up

onto the balcony?

Did he screw you?

I asked you something. Tell

me, did he screw you?

- Answer me! Did he screw you?

- No.

Are you telling the truth?
