Skybound

[soft music]

Above the clouds,

everything's pure,

beautiful.

Sometimes I wonder...

why would anyone ever

want to return to the ground?

[anticipatory music]

[exciting music]

[vocalization]

[stirring instrumentals]

[music softens]

And what about

All of the love

And what about

The things that we said

And what about

The places we've been

And all them...

[tires squealing]

Can I be honest with you,

Matt?

Sure thing, Lisa, go ahead.

You know, I was expecting you

to ask me on a date

ever since med school started.

You took your time

until tonight.

Actually I was only waiting

for a special occasion...

But if you're trying

to impress me

with this expensive car,

then...

I think you might

just have the wrong girl.

Oh, Lisa, I'm not,

seriously.

This was the only car

left at home.

I'm sorry... I think

it would just be better

if you take me back home.

Oh... Come on.

Lisa,

I had no choice about the car.

My mom is gonna kill me

when she finds out

I took it for this

three-day vacation.

[pop song continues

on radio]

Lisa?

[sighs]

Damn it.

[laughing]

I'm just messing with you.

[laughing]

I'm sorry, Matt, it's just...

this car probably costs more

than the house I grew up in.

- [phone buzzing]

- I seriously doubt that.

Oh, look, my dad's

calling from Toronto.

Maybe you want to ask him.

Hey, Dad, just a few hours

since I left.

Do you already miss me?

Oh honey,

you know I always do.

But right now I need to

know if by any chance

- you left some cash here.

- Some cash?

I'm afraid I ordered

some drugs for my asthma.

But now I can't pay

the delivery boy

because I didn't make it

to the ATM today.

Unfortunately,

the neighbors are out too.

But anyway,

I only need like, 10 bucks.

Look, Mr. Murphy,

I gotta be on my way.

Just order again

when you can afford it.

Dad?

Dad, let me talk to this guy.

Maybe there are a few dollars

in my bedroom drawer.

All right, here.

My daughter for you.

Uh...

[groans]

Great, Lisa Murphy.

David?

David Spencer, is that you?

Wow, we haven't talked since

you broke up with Katie.

Shame.

Listen David,

can I pay this online?

I've got this banking

app thing on my phone.

It should only take

a few minutes.

Uh... nope.

Can't do that Murphy.

You know what?

You sound almost as desperate

as Katie always did.

Funny, David.

Desperate is just

what I thought

when I saw that video of you.

You know, the one where

you're drunk and naked

and tried to do it with

Katie's German Shepherd?

I mean,

thank God the poor animal

managed to get away in time.

You, uh...

you still got that video?

Now I remember.

You weren't totally naked.

You were wearing those

yellow neon tennis socks.

Should get a few clicks

on YouTube.

What?

Uh...

Uh, Lisa, don't do that.

Uh, Mr. Murphy,

just forget

about the money, okay?

Merry Christmas to you, sir.

Lisa, what did you tell him?

Everything's fine Dad.

Just remember to refill

your medication, okay?

Promise.

Talk to you on New Years Eve.

Take care of yourself, honey.

You too, Dad.

Remind me never to

tick you off.

[Lisa laughs]

Hey... did we just enter

an airport?

Maybe.

But I thought we were

meeting Roxy and Odin

at your country house.

Don't worry, Lisa.

It's weird... somebody's

supposed to be here by now.

Matt, what's going on?

Look, truth is,

my parents

don't own a country house

in the state of New York.

However, we do own a beach

house in Los Angeles,

Malibu to be precise.

Malibu?

[small laugh]

[engine revving]

What's wrong?

[tires squealing]

Get out of the car!

[mellow rap music]

Odin, are you

out of your f***ing mind?

Easy, Parker.

You deserve it.

Kept us waiting for like

30 minutes.

Lisa,

did we really scare you?

Please, you have to forgive us.

It's good to see you too,

Roxy.

Now please don't tell me that...

We're flying to California,

baby, whoo!

Guys, I can't just...

Well, you did pack for

three days, didn't you?

So what's the difference?

Of course it'll be a little

warmer on the West Coast.

And a friend of mine

is gonna take us all

to Vin Diesel's movie

premiere tomorrow night.

And this is how we'll be

getting there.

Our Freedom XJ One, with

over 6,000 miles of range

and speeds of up to

700 miles per hour.

It's my dad's private plane.

He made me get my pilot's

license after my 18th birthday

so I could use it for...

special occasions.

[soft music]

Well...

what are we waiting for?

Whoo!

My thoughts exactly.

Come help me with my stuff,

would you?

You have to tell me

everything.

Did you two already kiss?

He hasn't tried,

unfortunately.

[gate motor whirring]

There he is, finally.

[engine revving]

- [metal clangs]

- Ay, dios mio!

I hope speeding

doesn't run in the family.

You should see us fly.

Is this your brother Kyle?

But he's not coming with us,

is he?

No, he's just here

for the handoff.

He piloted the plane

from Paris today

where our parents spend

Christmas.

Hey, little brother,

where have you been?

People have been waiting.

Sorry,

I arrived a little early,

so I took the bike for a spin.

[soft dramatic music]

Hi, Lisa.

Hello, Kyle.

Kyle, what's up?

Rosario.

Come on, Lisa,

heaven awaits us.

[upbeat music]

This way, ladies.

[gasps]

O-M-G!

This is awesome.

Heaven really was

the right word.

Look at this.

This baby's got everything...

TV, stereo, a bar!
