What did you say?
Wait, I can't
hear you. Hello?
Oh! Yes, yes, yes.
I'm com--
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. Fuck.
Um, I'm gonna
be there
in... 15 minutes.
Okay--
Um, 30, tops.
I promise.
Yeah.
Okay, I love you.
I'll see you soon.
Okay. Bye.
BELLA: Oh, my God.
-(UPBEAT SONG PLAYING
OVER SPEAKERS)
-Dude, I asked Grayson
if I could give you
his number.
REBECCA: No. No!
-No, no, no!
-Yes!
Oh, my God.
Why not?
I don't know.
He seems, like, so cool.
Like... too cool for me.
BELLA: No one
is too cool for you.
Like, first of all,
every guy
is a fucking loser.
Second of all,
it's not like high school.
No, I know, I know.
I just don't
want him to think
I'm obsessed
with him or whatever.
BELLA: I did not say
you're obsessed
with him.
Okay, good,
'cause I'm fucking not.
Sounds like you're totally
not obsessed with him.
Um, I would just, like,
keep an eye out,
because I think he has,
like, a weird thing
for Asian girls.
He tried to hook up
with Alex
when they first met.
She's literally
a quarter Japanese.
BELLA: She's half,
I think.
-REBECCA: I think
it's a quarter.
-Okay.
I just... I'm trying
to, like,
introduce the new,
stop you
from backsliding. Like...
I haven't... talked
to Carter in, like...
a month-- like,
since my birthday.
So, yeah, like a month.
What?
I believe you.
Okay. Um...
I'm late for work,
so I am gonna go,
-but I, um--
-Are you serious?
-REBECCA: Yeah, I--
-I've, like,
barely done anything.
REBECCA: I know, I know.
I'm sorry, I just...
I... I have to go
pick up these special
light bulbs for Bob,
and then
that's gonna be
another 30 minutes,
so I'll be, like,
an hour late.
I just...
I have to go.
-I'm sorry.
-(BELLA SIGHS)
Bet if I had
a fucking dollar
for every time you--
-I literally have
to go to work.
-Okay. Then go to work.
-I'm at work
right now.
-Okay. I love you.
BELLA: Okay, fine.
I'm gonna
just be imagining
your beautiful face.

Can... Can I get you

it's a good thing you ran
into me this morning.
I was just about
to write you out of my will.
-(CHUCKLES)
-(CLEARS THROAT)
Hey, can I get you
a baozi or something?
So...
where are you living?
Remember that big supermarket
we used to shop at?
Near the library?
Near there.
But my doctor's here
in the center.
And you?
Big-city girl,
living out
her dreams, right?
Um, I live in...
in, uh, Brooklyn. Bushwick.
But I work
on East 72nd.
(CLEARS THROAT)
How's your mother?
REBECCA: She's good.
(CHUCKLES)
Yeah, she's great.
You know, they have
other stuff as well--
Yeah, I... I honestly...
I'm really late
for work.
-I should probably
get going.
-Hey, hey, hey.
Before you go,
can you do me a favor?
Please, I only need
ten minutes.
-I'm already late.
-WILLIAM: 15 minutes?
Fifteen minutes
of your time.
I could really use
a break right now in New York.
Please?
I can use
some good luck.
My good luck charm.

We should

You forgot

Oh, sorry.

It must be at the--
You know what?
Never mind.
Just... Just cancel it.

I just wanted
to see your face.
Um... I'm...
I mean, thank you
so much
for the gift.
I... I just...
I'm really not
in a position
to take care
of a pet right now.
Like, I... I think
my dad is sick,
and my job is just...
I mean, I just have
a lot of stuff going on.

if it was hard to send,
but if there's
any way that you--

Okay, fine. 15 minutes.
And you gotta let me
give you a ride back
on the new Z400.
Oh, my God.
(CHUCKLES) No.
It's incredible. It's...
You're gonna freak out.
It's worth every dime.
It's the best money
I've ever spent
in my life.
No. I just think
about being squashed
like a little bug
on the pavement.
Yeah, I know.
But once you're on it,
you just feel the wind
blowing in your hair,
and just that sense
of fucking real freedom.
-(CHUCKLES)
-You'll be saying different.
Just promise...
Do you promise
you'll let me
give you a ride?
Fine. But only if I get
to wear the helmet.
I've got two, dummy.
-We can both wear helmets.
-(LAUGHS) Okay.
Do you think...
it would be a bad idea
to get back together?
(MURMURS) I don't know.

So I'm asking you,
New York,
what do you think?
Are the newer artists
pushing the culture forward,
or do we need to hold on
to that old-school essence
a little longer?
(CASH REGISTER CLICKS)
Look, hip-hop
is always evolving,
and I'm here for it.
But I think
we can all agree,
the heart of it...
-Thank you.
-...is still
about the storytelling,
the lyricism,
the passion.
It's that energy
that keeps us
coming back for more,
no matter what direction
the sound is taking.
All right. Listen up...

Teddi.

Mmm-hmm.

do you do, Teddi?
I don't do anything.
(JAS CHUCKLES)
JAS: What does that mean?
I cam,
and I work, like...
a regular
nothing-job. It's...
It's not interesting.
What about you?
What do you do?
JAS: Uh, businessman.
Business, like finance,
or what type of business?
JAS: Uh, well, it's... I...
I wouldn't worry about...
It's... it's boring.
What do you think, um...
What do you think
I should name her?
JAS: Does she need a name?
(CHUCKLES) Of...
Yeah. I mean...
of course she needs a name.
Didn't you ever
name your pets?
JAS: Only the ones I...
I knew we were gonna keep.
Right. Well...
now that I know
I'm keeping her,
I should think of a name.
JAS: God!
I like you.
REBECCA: (CHUCKLES) Um...
that's really sweet.
Do you think I could...
see you? Like, could you
turn your camera on?
JAS: How about if you
do something for me?
Okay.

Yeah. Okay.

call Ricky to make sure
that I don't get any more

He sucks.
I can't believe
he fired you for that.
I actually had
this amazing idea
the other day,
-which is that
you should be my assistant.
-(CHUCKLES)
It would be,
like, easy, fun.
Like, all you would
really need to do
is, like,
stretch the canvases,
wash the brushes.
And then
you could get us
matchas from Barry.

yellow?

BELLA: Okay.
Becca, I'm not trying
to be a bitch, but, like,
you're not even
really trying.
You're so arrogant
sometimes.
What?
Just, like, the way
that you say things
sometimes,
it's like you're so sure
that you're right
about everything.
(CHUCKLES)
I'm not arrogant.
I'm just, like...
not afraid
to have an opinion.
(SIGHS)
Well, how is your papa?
Ew, don't call him
my fucking "papa."

He's fine.
I don't know.

I don't know. Maybe.

with her dad?
(JAS GROANS)
Where do you live?
JAS: Pennsylvania.
So may...
maybe it's better
if I come visit you guys.
Huh?
REBECCA: Yeah. Maybe.
You... you ever been
to Pennsylvania?
Mmm-mmm.
Did you grow up there?
Yeah. Yeah, I grew up
in northern Pennsylvania,
but then we moved to Philly
about eight years ago.
You and...
Me and my ex-wife.

Yeah, I don't know.
Uh, yeah, just time
and whatever else
makes people
grow apart.
Ugh. God, I wish
I was there
with you guys right now.
We wish
you were here, too.

I was like...
(GROANS) ...I wish I was,
like, in the bed...

Um...
I should probably go.
I have to be up
really early tomorrow.
Oh, come on.
-Just a little longer?
-REBECCA: I just...
I have to take my dad
to a doctor's appointment
really early.
I just don't wanna be
a total zombie.
JAS: Yeah.
No, I... I get it.
I could just...
I don't know.
I could stare
at you guys...
all night. But, uh...
-Yeah, we'll talk, and--

Fine. Okay, fine.
I'm warning you,
I might fall asleep.

in Chelsea.
-Really?
-(INSTRUMENT CLATTERS)
That's a rare breed.
Usually you don't see them
in pet stores.
REBECCA: Yeah, it was,
um, a boutique pet store.
Like, they had
all the inbred
kind of animals.
Like the Persian cats
and the French bulldogs
with the, like, smushed faces.
-DR. HOFFMAN: Ah. (INHALES)
-(PHONE BUZZES)
Okay. Well,
Milk is exhibiting
signs of shock.
Shock?
DR. HOFFMAN: Yes.
So, typically, we can tell
when rabbits
go into shock
by their body temperature,
which drops significantly.
That's why her ears
felt so cold.
And her gums
are also quite pale,
which is another
indicator of shock.
Has she undergone
any stress recently?
Um, no.
No, nothing
that I can think of.
Okay.
Well, shock
can also occur
due to a loud sound
or sudden fear.
So it's possible
she might have
heard something jarring.
Yeah. Um,
they're doing construction
in the apartment
next to mine,
and so
something must've,
like, slammed, or...
Okay, well,
we're gonna get some,
uh, liquids in her
through an IV,
and then
we'll keep her here
for monitoring
for a couple of hours.
Okay. Thank you
so much.
-DR. HOFFMAN: Yeah.
-Um...
(DR. HOFFMAN SCRIBBLING)
Is... Is she
gonna be okay?
DR. HOFFMAN:
Hard to tell.
It's rare,
but it is possible
for rabbits
to die from shock.
I'm not saying
that to scare you.
I just want you to be aware
of every possible outcome.

Like the Persian cats

-DR. HOFFMAN: Ah. (INHALES)
-(PHONE BUZZES)
Okay. Well,
Milk is exhibiting
signs of shock.
Shock?
DR. HOFFMAN: Yes.
So, typically, we can tell
when rabbits
go into shock
by their body temperature,
which drops significantly.
That's why her ears
felt so cold.
And her gums
are also quite pale,
which is another
indicator of shock.
Has she undergone
any stress recently?
Um, no.
No, nothing
that I can think of.
Okay.
Well, shock
can also occur
due to a loud sound
or sudden fear.
So it's possible
she might have
heard something jarring.
Yeah. Um,
they're doing construction
in the apartment
next to mine,
and so
something must've,
like, slammed, or...
Okay, well,
we're gonna get some,
uh, liquids in her
through an IV,
and then
we'll keep her here
for monitoring
for a couple of hours.
Okay. Thank you
so much.
-DR. HOFFMAN: Yeah.
-Um...
(DR. HOFFMAN SCRIBBLING)
Is... Is she
gonna be okay?
DR. HOFFMAN:
Hard to tell.
It's rare,

for rabbits
to die from shock.
I'm not saying

I just want you to be aware

you would be...

Um... this is...
-(SOFTLY) Yes.
-REBECCA: Sorry.
-How is she?
-Oh, my God,
she's amazing.
I've been feeding her...
a lot of snacks.
-Thank you so much
for taking care of her.
-Of course.
She has gained
15 pounds,
but I think it's fine.
I'm sorry
about last week.
I... I hope that you're
not mad at me.
I'm not mad.
BELLA: Okay,
'cause I should have
told you about the painting.
But, like...
you're always late.
-And then I tried
to call you and, like--
-I know. I know. I'm sorry.
Okay. Becca,
it's, like, so hard to be
a good friend to you
when you don't tell me
what's going on.
Like, I can't even help you
-because I don't even know.
-I know. I know. I'm sorry.
The other day,
when I was cleaning out
my dad's apartment...
I found a bunch
of VHS porn tapes,
and one of them
was labeled,
"Teenager Piss Orgy."
Oh, my God.
-Ew.
-(CHUCKLES)
Did you watch it?
-(LAUGHS)
-(CHUCKLES)
Duh.
REBECCA: Do you think...
that's why I'm, like...
a secret freak?
BELLA: Honestly,
on the scale
of secret freaks, like,
barely a pervert, okay?
And also, like,
Trevor's dad
was basically
addicted to porn,
and he's pretty much
a fossil. So it's fine.
(SOFTLY) Okay.
(IN NORMAL VOICE)
I think Carter
gave me HPV.
BELLA: You're kidding me.
I wish I was kidding.
-BELLA: I'm gonna
fucking kill him.
-No.
I am going
to snap him like a twig.
-No, it's okay. (CHUCKLES)
-I've been waiting
to do it for years.
-It's okay. It's okay.
-Oh, my God.
(SOFTLY) I'm sorry
about your dad, B.
(SOFTLY) It's okay.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
MAN: Man, I'm so sorry.
REBECCA: No. It's okay.
Thanks so much
for coming down here.
He would've really,
really appreciated it.

Relax your attention.
Focus on your breath,
and open yourself
to a feeling of self-love
and compassion.
In our adult lives,
mindfulness can help us
foster the skills
of self-soothing.
We learn to meet
the feelings that arise--
