Not a Love Story: Making (500) Days of Summer Page #4

---

Yeah, man.

Cheers.

[ Continues ]

I got some troubles

but they won't last

I'm gonna lay right down

here in the grass

And pretty soon

all my troubles will pass

'Cause I'm in Su-Su-Su

Su-Su-Su

Su-Su-Su-Su-Su-Su

Sugar Town

[ Cheering ]

[ Continues ]

[ Fades ]

Like, that's what I was

I guess.

Hello.

[ Chuckles ]

Hi.

I didn't, uh I didn't know

you were gonna join us.

I would have gotten you,

you know, a drink, or-

I'm good.

You're good?

You You were great

great up, uh, singing.

Thankyou.

I wanted to sing ''Born To Run,''

but they didn't have it.

I love ''Born To Run.''

Me too.

Tom's from NewJersey.

Really?

Yeah. I grew up there.

Uh, I lived there till I was 1 2.

I named my cat

after Springsteen.

No kidding.

What-what was his name?

Bruce.

oh.

That makes sense.

[ Chuckles ]

So, do you have a boyfriend?

- No.

- Why not?

- 'Cause I don't want one.

- Come on. I don't believe that.

You don't believe

that a woman could enjoy

being free and independent?

[ Robotic Voice ]

Are you a lesbian?

No, I'm not a lesbian.

I just don't feel comfortable

being anyone's girlfriend.

I don't actually feel

comfortable being anyone's

anything, you know.

- I don't know what

you're talking about.

- Really?

Nope.

[ Chuckles ]

Okay. Let me

break it down foryou.

- Break it down.

- Okay. I like being on my own.

Relationships are messy,

and people's feelings get hurt.

Who needs it? We're young.

We live in one of

the most beautiful

cities in the world.

Might as well have fun

while we can and...

save the serious stufffor later.

Holy sh*t. You're a dude.

She's a dude.

Okay. But wait, wait.

What happens ifyou fall in love?

[ Chuckles ]

What?

Well, you don't

believe that, do you?

It's love.

It's not Santa Claus.

Well, what does

that word even mean?

I've been in relationships,

and I don't think I've ever seen it.

Well, maybe that's-

And most marriages end

in divorce these days.

Like my parents.

Okay. Mine too, but

Methinks the lady

doth protest too much.

The lady dothn't.

There's no such thing as love.

It's a fantasy.

Well, I thinkyou're wrong.

Okay. Well,

what is it that

I'm missing then?

I thinkyou know it

when you feel it.

I guess we can just

agree to disagree.

Yeah.

- [ Slams Table ]

- Okay. Who's singing next?

I nominate

Young werther here.

I'm not nearly

drunk enough to

Bartender.

[ Summer] Whoo! whoo!

outside there's a boxcar waiting

Outside the family stew

out by the fire breathing

[ Both ]

whoo! whoo!

Outside we wait

till our face turns blue

I know the nervous walking

I know the dirty beard

ha-ha-hangs

Out by the boxcarwaiting

Take me away

to nowhere plains
