The Voices Page #3

Synopsis: Jerry (Ryan Reynolds) is that chipper guy clocking the nine-to-five at a bathtub factory, with the offbeat charm of anyone who could use a few friends. With the help of his court-appointed psychiatrist, he pursues his office crush (Gemma Arterton). However, the relationship takes a sudden, murderous turn after she stands him up for a date. Guided by his evil talking cat and benevolent talking dog, Jerry must decide whether to keep striving for normalcy, or indulge in a much more sinister path.

- Wow.

- Prepare to be amazed.

- Okay. Cool.

I'll get there early.

I'll save you a seat.

- All right.

- All right.

All right. Thanks for

the ride, Jerry.

All right.

No problem, Fiona.

Have a good night.

Got a date

with Fiona on Friday

night from England.

Well, f*** me.

I'm an a**hole.

I apologize, man.

You were right.

Cat food's in the kitchen, Jer,

and I can't open the can.

I don't have thumbs.

Who's my good boy?

Who's my good boy?

- Hey, Jerry.

- Hey, Lisa.

- Hey...

- Alison.

- What's up?

- Where's Fiona?

She just left.

Do you have something for her?

Yeah, she needs this address.

Shi Shan.

It's the restaurant

where we're gonna meet.

We'll make sure she gets it.

- Is there anything else?

- No.

Make sure she gets that, okay?

It's important.

- Yeah, we'll make sure.

- Okay.

- Is he gone?

- Yeah, he's gone.

What is this about?

Oh, it's this

Chinese restaurant.

I said I might

meet him over there.

Well, no.

You can't.

Tonight's karaoke.

Oh, yeah.

Karaoke.

Well, just call him and

tell him you can't make it.

No, I don't want to upset him.

I'll wait until

the office closes

and then I'll leave

a message on voicemail.

You're a real sweetheart,

Fiona.

Whaa!

Hey, fish.

"Hi, Jerry.

How you doing,

man?"

Well, I'm a little bit bummed.

"No duh.

She stood you up. "

I'm sure there's a reason.

"I sure hope so.

I wish I could help you,

Jerry, but I'm just a fish. "

Oh.

- Oh, Jesus.

- Have you seen Alison?

No. I think she's gonna

keep going, actually.

Oh, sh*t!

- Oh, no.

- Now my phone's f***ed.

- Oh...

- No, that's all right.

I was gonna walk back

to the plant...

Oh, no.

I'll give you a ride.

- Yeah.

- Thank you! You're the best!

- Okay, you ready?

- Okay.

Go!

You okay?

- Yeah.

It's so horrible!

Ahh! It's like being

in England again.

You want me to wait?

- No.

- Have a good night.

Ugh.

Bloody hell!

Ugh.

Sh*t!

Ahh!

Jerry!

Fiona?

Jerry.

- Ohh.

- Fiona, you're soaked.

- Get in.

- Wow.

- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

What are you doing out here?

I was listening to music.

I- I went to Shi Shan.

I didn't see you there.

Didn't you get my message?

No. No.

- No.

- I'm so sorry, Jerry.

Well, you, uh...

need a hot chocolate

or something?

I suppose I owe you, don't I?

Go on, then.

I'm freezing.

I... you're sitting

on a blanket.

Oh.

Don't stare, Jerry.

- Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.

- It's all right.

- I'm really sorry.

- It's not the end of the world, Jerry.

Oh...

God, I'm starving.

Let's get something to eat.

I got crackers

in the glove box.

Oh, no.

We need something horrible

and greasy tonight.

- Do you know Doran's?

- Uh-uh.

You're gonna love it.
