"rainy and cold."

- I'm sorry;

I got so distracted,

'cause all I heard was

pissing and moaning.

- Right.

Sorry, I started pissing.

I'm not pissing.

I'm not pissing and moaning.

I'm done.

I'm done.

- You just need

some head space, okay?

- Okay.

- Okay.

So then you're gonna take

a right on a road

called Dunhill Road.

And the house is right

at the end of the street.

And it's the only house

on the lane.

- Okay.

Um, I mean, seriously,

I'm just going not...

like, what am I doing out here?

- You just sit there,

and you look out at the water,

and you think

about your life.

- Really?

I'm just gonna sit?

- You're just gonna sit.

There's no TV.

There's no internet.

There's nothing.

It's just you.

- Do they have forks,

'cause I might...

- They have a couple...

we have a couple of forks,

yeah.

- I might need to stab myself

in the face.

(laughs)

- Will you please come visit me,

please?

- No, Jack.

I can't.

This is... I can't anyway,

'cause I'm slammed.

But I can't because this is...

this is for you, you know.

Don't make me feel bad

about sending you off.

- All right, I'm gonna go have

the greatest time ever

doing nothing.

And if I don't come back

within a week,

bring a razor

and deodorant.

(laughs)

(peaceful acoustic guitar music)

(bicycle wheels clicking)

(leaves rustling)

(sighs)

(grunts)

(breathing heavily)

clang!

Oh, sh*t.

Oh, sh*t.

Oh, sh*t.

(both scream)

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

Hi, hi, I'm...

- Ahh!

- Okay.

I think I have the wrong house.

And I... I...

Hey, Hannah!

You're Hannah!

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

I'm so sorry.

I'm Jack.

I'm Iris' friend Jack.

- You're Jack?

- Yes, I'm so sorry

I freaked you out.

- Holy f***!

- Sorry.

- Are you kidding me?

What are you doing, like,

creeping around my house?

- I was looking for the key.

And I'm so sorry.

I didn't... I didn't even see

anything, so it's fine.

- F*** me.

- Sorry, that's my fault.

That's...

Anyway, not to beat

a dead horse,

but just to be super clear,

I was looking

for the key out front,

and I thought maybe

it was on the side.

You know, and that's really...

- Ring the bell.

Just ring the bell, dude.

- Yeah, but I didn't know

anybody was here,

so why would I ring

the bell?

- You know what?

Just... let's drop it, okay?

It's just...

it's done.

- Anyway, sorry.

But look, you obviously

came here to, what,

get some alone time,

and I'm clearly barging in.

So I don't know, I'll just get

a cheap hotel, I think,

and it'll be fine.

- No, it's fine.

You can... you could stay.

Yeah, it's fine.

Stay.

- I don't want to intrude.

I really don't.

- Look, Iris invited you up.
