The One I Love
1
So we met at a party,
and it was magic.
Within a half hour,
we were driving up into
this really nice neighborhood,
and we were
mooing down the stairs
of some stranger's backyard,
and then we were swimming
and we were in love.
What we didn't count on
was that even though
the lights were off,
the owner of the home
was there,
and he came out
screaming at us,
and it was the greatest
night of my life.
Ready?
So my idea was, you know,
let's try
and re-create that moment.
Oh, it's freezing!
It's a little colder
than I remember it.
Do you think
he's coming out?
I'm sure. I'm sure he
heard us, right?
Hello? This is fun.
Yeah.
Where is he'?
Maybe he's not home.
Happy anniversary anyway.
Happy anniversary
When we were in the
water and we were waiting
and no one came out,
no one was home,
and we were
just floating there,
I felt sad,
and I felt like our happiness
used to be so easy
and there used to be
so much of it,
and now I feel like
happiness is something
that we have to re-create.
Ah.
I'm sorry. I tried to make
a romantic moment.
I'll never take you
to a fucking pool again.
Oh, come on.
Don't do that.
Okay.
This could be fun.
We're going to do a
compatibility exercise.
I want you both to play a note
at the same time, okay?
Just any note?
Wow! You guys are not in sync,
are you?
We used to be great.
We used to be
really irreverent and...
Yeah. There was teasing.
- Yeah.
- And stuff. Like I...
I mean no offense...
But I would call you
a bitch and it was funny.
Yeah, it was hilarious.
I used to call you a bitch.
- You thought it was really funny.
- Yeah.
I just don't know how
we're going to move forward
if we keep having
this circular conversation
about me doing what I did
which I have
apologized for already,
and we are here because
we are trying to move on.
I don't see why we have to
keep revisiting that
because it's the same conversation
over and over again.
Because you don't get
to decide that, Ethan.
You don't get to decide
when we move on, I do.
So, you guys having sex?
Now if you'd played
this one, Sophie...
or that one...
...that's pretty, right?
But this...
...not so much.
Anyway, it's just an exercise.
I want to trust you again.
I want to forgive you.
I want
all of those things.
I want us
and I want us to work.
I don't know why you feel
like I don't want that.
Because we don't agree on
how were going to get there.
Where are you?
Okay.
I have an idea.
This is a great place.
I think it will be
very helpful.
It's absolutely beautiful.
It's about an hour and a half
north from here.
It's like a...
like a perfect retreat,
just the two of you.
Give you a chance
We sent
a tot of couples there,
and they've all come back
renewed.
- What do you think?
- I mean, I'll try anything.
Sophie?
Wow!
Hello'?
And then when you
pour the wine, you do this.
This is what they do in
the restaurants. Watch this. Whoop.
So it doesn't drip.
Even though I kind of...
- It kind of dripped.
- I don't think you did it right.
Cheers!
To me and my cooking.
There's a guest house
on the property
which is pretty cool.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I don't even know
if we're supposed to use it
or if someone else
is renting it.
Oh, God.
What's happening?
Come here.
Come here.
What's happening?
Whoa!
Yeah, yeah.
You've got to hold it.
Hold it in, hold it in.
There you go.
- Geez.
- Wow, still got it.
Get the light going.
- Sweetie.
- Sorry, sorry.
Give me kiss.
Aw! You're so cute
