Run & Jump Page #2

Synopsis: Vanetia Casey (Maxine Peake), the spirited and impossibly optimistic center of the Casey family, is working hard to get life back to normal after her 38 year-old husband, Conor (Edward MacLiam), suffers a rare stroke which changes his personality. Tweedy American doctor, Ted Fielding, (Will Forte) arrives in Ireland to stay with them for two months: his research grant providing the Caseys with essential financial aid. Vanetia's a dynamo. But with two young kids and both men in the house, she's feeling bombarded and initially treats Ted and his study of Conor with resistance. Only when she observes Ted's calming influence on the family does she begin to value his friendship, and, in return, Ted enjoys their heady, happy-go-lucky world. But Ted's continued presence in the house sets the family on course for an emotional collision. Directed by Academy Award®-nominee Steph Green and featuring Saturday Night Live star Will Forte in an impressive dramatic debut, this life-affirming film embr

What are you doing?

It's called laughter yoga.

Please stop.

Careful with those,

Papa Schnitzel.

Did Conor normally drive?

He did.

But he didn't drive normally.

This bloody adapter.

- I want a cookie.

- Hi, Christy.

- Hi, Vanetia.

- Go on.

All right.

We need two trolleys.

Can I have a euro?

- Hi, guys.

- Hey, there, loser. - Hey.

- How you been?

- Doing good.

We need two trolleys so I can buy

the items that start with "f".

We're not getting

a second trolley.

I want to sit in dad's trolley.

Can't. "N" is for noni.

I want to.

In you go.

Dad, can't this be an "n" trolley?

- No, it's an "f" trolley.

- Well, she's a little fairy.

We're not getting

a second trolley, okay?

- You're the fairy.

- Conor!

Give me the trolley.

- What are you doing?

- Get off.

- Conor, get off!

- F*ggot.

Fudgepacker, friend of Dorothy!

Conor, you stop that

and get in the shop now.

Sorry about that.

Sorry about that.

Oh, for f***'s sake.

Hi, boys.

Who's Dorothy?

You don't want to know.

You all right?

There you go. Right in there.

4:
00 A.M. week 2.

Third observed incident of

somnambulism.

Possibl--

Possibly parasomnia or other

symptomatic sleep disorder.

Do you have a family?

No.

Why?

I'm a scientist instead.

Want to play spa?

No.

I'm impressed with your

dexterity.

How many of those

have you made, Conor?

- Just need to make one more.

- Hello? Yoo-hoo.

More wood.

Come on, now, Freida the fairy.

Inside and get your hands washed.

Come on, Conor.

Dinner.

Oh, Conor! Don't!

I need more wood.

If you put it back together,

we can sell it and buy wood.

Have you -- have you made

anything we can sell?

What are these for?

Your mom and dad are here.

Come on. Dinner.

I-I-I don't like whiteness

anymore because --

Because there were a lot of

white walls in the hospital?

And up here.

I finished.

Good girl.

Conor's never gone a week

without making something.

Do you think he might need

a bit of privacy?

Mrs. Casey, I've left him alone

for hours at a time,

and there's no change.

I'm sure that Dr. Sud explained

the prognosis.

Conor will not return

to his old self.

- There's been too much damage.

- Okay.

Well, all I'm saying is he might

need a bit more space, you know,

without you looking.

- Mrs. Casey.

- Just a bit of space, Dr. Fielding.

Keep up the pace!

Come on, Casey!

Keep at it!

Keep going!

- Simon, Lenny, Fergus, Mike.

- Congratulations, Simon.

Hey, Lenny.

That's how he likes it.

- Is he under?

- Yeah.

I stressed that little fish

place in town.

- Oh, it's nice.

- You know, it's nice lighting. - Yeah.

And, um, about, you know,

two days ago, I get a text,

and suddenly, it's -- it's a tea.
