MAN: Eine happy family!
FINN: Just keep smiling.
-BILLIE: Smile.
-You just pulled off my ski!
Honey, don't put your thing
on his ski.
You're gonna get...
-You're stepping on my ski!
-The underside?
BILLIE: Like that?
EMERSON: Closer together?
FINN: I don't know.
BILLIE: Guys, smile.
(SPEAKING GERMAN)
Put your arms up. Like this.
Like that?
-EMERSON: Hey!
-(CAMERA CLICKS)
FINN: Oh, my God!
EMERSON: Finn!
-You're on my ski, okay? Stop!
-Guys.
Guys.
Just separate the boys.
And then I should...
Guys, you're separated.
-(CONTINUES IN GERMAN)
-FINN: Stop!
BILLIE:
Can you say that again?
PETE: He wants me to get
on the underside.
EMERSON: Are you serious?
BILLIE: No, no, no.
Pete, stay where you are.
PETE: Don't shoot this part.
Wait till we're ready.
Please stand up straight.
-Please look into the camera.
-EMERSON: I'm trying.
Please just smile.
BILLIE: Come on, guys,
say "Austria!"
PETE: Austria!
(SPEAKS GERMAN)
PETE: He wants poles up again.
He wants us
to keep doing poles up.
-I don't know.
-(CAMERA CLICKS)
(SWEEPING MUSIC PLAYS)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
A little crowded, huh?
(CHUCKLES)
BILLIE: Yeah, it's lively.
Yeah, I think
it's just that time of day.
I think so, too.
-(THUDS)
-Oh.
Sorry. Sorry.
BILLIE:
Honey, have you noticed
there are no kids around here?
I mean, it seems kinda weird,
don't you think?
PETE: Maybe it's just
different school schedules.
BILLIE: Yeah, maybe.
EMERSON: This way, this way.
Hey, guys, stay where
I can see you, please.
Hi. Thank you. It's Stanton.
Who are you texting?
Uh, Zach.
Zach-from-work Zach?
Yeah.
Oh. Why is he texting you?
Are you friends now?
No. I just told him
about our trip,
and it turns out that he and
his girlfriend, Rosie,
they're traveling
through Europe as well.
Oh, no kidding?
PETE: Amsterdam, it seems,
at the moment.
"Hashtag no agenda."
BILLIE: Oh, come on.
"Hashtag live your best life."
Hashtag get better hashtags.
Yeah. Right, yeah, no, I know.
-Hashtag don't do hashtags.
-PETE: Right.
Hashtag
stop wasting your time.
BILLIE: Right?
With hashtags. (CHUCKLES)
Honey, can you get off
your phone now?
-I'm all done. I'm all done.
-Good.
-Okay.
-Let's just be here, okay?
(SIGHS DEEPLY) I see.
BILLIE: Hello?
PETE: (IN SING-SONG VOICE)
Hello?
Hello, I'm Charlotte.
So, your flight was okay?
Yeah, it was good.
-At what time did you get in?
-PETE: Oh...
Um, I think about midday,
I would...
Yeah, I wanted to get out
on the mountain,
ski before we checked in.
Well, I'm sorry
I was not there to meet you.
Now, what have I got for you?
You are...
-The Stantons.
-Stanton.
Yeah, I know.
-Resort map.
-BILLIE: Oh, thank you.
-Key cards.
-Great.
Oh, actually, I'm curious.
Are there other kids
around here?
No, not here.
The town of Fiss,
maybe minutes of 20 from here.
There is all families.
But here is better.
It's lively.
The Ibiza of the Alps.
And you will want to party
all night.
Now, in Europe,
we think it is unhygienic
to sauna in the swimsuit,
so everyone naked.
Here the body
is not to be ashamed of.
Well, speak for yourself.
No, your body is good.
Celebrate it.
Okay. Yes.
-I will for sure do that.
-Both.
Yeah. No, no. No question.
-CHARLOTTE: Good.
-We'll celebrate it.
So I am here as friend, ja?
Do you want to be my friend?
-Oh. Oh, sure.
-Um...
(LAUGHS) Then we are friends.
-Oh. Great. Wonderful.
-Oh.
Okay.
Oh. Oh, sorry.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Hey, guys, hang up your ski
stuff to dry, please.
-(BOYS GRUNTING)
-Boys, cool it.
Put all that stuff
in drawers, okay?
EMERSON: It hurts!
-Tell you something.
-(BOYS CONTINUE GRUNTING)
Them sharing a queen
is gonna be a disaster.
-Honey.
-(MESSAGE TONE CHIMES)
-(CHUCKLES)
-No. Now I'm done.
Zach kept texting.
Asking about Ischgl
and where we're staying, so...
All right, but we're not
looking for them
to no-agenda their way here,
are we, Pete?
No. No, no, no.
That's why I wanted
to finish that conversation.
BILLIE: Yeah. Good.
Look.
-I found my dad's old hat.
-(GASPS)
I thought I'd bring it
and wear it on the slopes.
No way.
Have him here with us.
That's so sweet.
I love that.
Yeah.
Sorry if I've been,
you know...
Oh.
That's why we're here. Right?
Yeah.
It's good for all of us.
(EXPLOSIONS)
Okay.
-We should stop, right?
-Yeah.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Done.
(BOTH LAUGH)
Okay.
Okay. Seriously.
'Cause we're gonna want a big
breakfast in the morning.
Yes.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
I'm gonna grab a shower.
All right.
Okay.
-PETE: Knock, knock.
-(KNOCKS)
BILLIE: What?
PETE: What?
What do you mean, what?
BILLIE: What?
-PETE: Taking my clothes off.
-(BILLIE LAUGHS)
She said we're supposed
to celebrate our bodies.
BILLIE: I knew you were gonna
pick up on that. (LAUGHS)
(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)
(CHUCKLES)
Yeah.
So we don't lose each other.
Good thinking, right?
There wasn't much left
in the arts and crafts stuff
except for these
back-to-school stickers,
which the boys are not
gonna be too excited about.
No. Yeah.
They won't be too psyched.
Honey, you're gonna wear that
under a helmet, right?
Yes. Yeah, yeah.
-Yeah. Yeah.
-For under. Mmm-hmm.
(BOYS LAUGHING)
BILLIE: Hey, boys,
we're leaving in five.
Get your stuff together.
FINN: Okay.
(BOYS CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
(SIGHS)
PETE: Slow up, Finn!
Hey, hey, hey! Stop!
Whoa. You gotta wait up
for the rest of the group,
okay, bud?
FINN: Okay.
(PETE AND BILLIE EXHALE)
Oh, God.
He's just playing it up.
Honey, honestly,
it's just a phase.
You've gotta let it go.
No, I know.
'Cause, I mean,
the more you make of it...
PETE: The more
we give attention to it...
BILLIE: Right.
PETE: It's gonna become
more of a thing.
BILLIE: It becomes a thing
and, yeah.
-PETE: Yeah. Yeah, got it.
-Exactly.
(BILLIE SIGHS)
Oh, you gotta be kidding me.
PETE: Way to go, Em.
You're like a rocket.
BILLIE:
All right, lookit, guys,
this is what I'm thinking.
I'm thinking we should
just have some soup right now
and then we can have some of
those yummy pastries at 4:00.
And then we'll still be hungry
for dinner.
Doesn't that sound
like a good plan, you guys?
Maybe we ski the Beast
after lunch.
-FINN: I'll do that, Dad.
-Yeah.
Oh. Um... (HESITATES)
I don't think
it'll be that challenging.
It looks black
but it skis red.
Really?
American blue.
Yeah. Several of
the black runs
are American blue.
European red.
They just call 'em black
for the prestige.
Where did you hear that?
I just know it. Yeah.
It'll be fine.
You can handle it.
How about this?
Why don't we go
and we find some good powder?
And then we can
get in some practice runs,
you know, for the, uh...
(CLICKING TONGUE)
Rodeo?
-No, Pete. For the...
-(THUDS)
(ALL EXCLAIMING)
Wow.
(ALL CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
WOMAN:
It's a controlled avalanche.
Yeah.
Is that okay, Pete?
-(RUMBLING)
-Yeah. It's fine.
Mom?
(ALL EXCLAIMING)
Mom!
(ALL CLAMORING, SCREAMING)
(WOMAN COUGHING)
(BREATHES HEAVILY) Pete?
(PEOPLE CHATTERING)
WOMAN: You good? You okay?
Wow, huh?
(EXHALES) That was...
I mean, right?
Nuts.
Yeah.
(WOMAN LAUGHING)
(CHUCKLES)
Those people are laughing.
WAITER: Everyone okay?
Oh, hey.
-Here we go. Uh...
-We'll clean all this off.
What can I get for you?
I'm gonna go with soup.
Yeah.
-Get the pastries later?
-BILLIE: Uh...
Sure.
PETE: But soup. Soup for now.
Yeah.
-WAITER: Thank you.
-Phew.
Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Stop! Stop!
Stop!
Please.
Watch what you're doing.
(MAN LAUGHS, SPEAKS IN GERMAN)
It's cool, yeah?
No, it's not cool.
You could've crushed my son.
You all right?
Yeah.
(SPEAKING IN GERMAN)
-Please.
-What is going on here?
They stop not hard.
BILLIE: What happened here?
PETE: Let's just walk away
from this.
Let's just walk away.
Everything cool.
PETE: You want help
with your shoes?
EMERSON: No.
What was all of that?
I don't get it.
No, he wasn't looking
and he slid the thing
back on him.
BILLIE: Are you all right?
EMERSON: Yeah, I'm good.
BILLIE: He's fine.
It just startled me.
(BOTH SPEAKING IN GERMAN
ON TV)
You look pretty.
Thank you.
Um...
You think you could...
I'm just...
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
(TAP RUNNING)
(BOTH SPEAKING HINDI)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
-Oh, it's crowded.
-Wow.
So are you gonna say
something about...
-CHARLOTTE: Yay!
-Oh!
My good friends!
Oh, I think
she wants us to, uh...
No, no, no. She's just waving.
Hi.
No, now she's kinda beckoning.
-Okay.
-In a way.
We'll make an excuse.
There's no reason I take.
Okay.
Yeah.
I think it'd be rude now.
-We're with her.
-Oh. Okay.
-The woman in the white.
-No, we're not.
Ah. Yes.
WAITRESS: Your white wine
and scotch.
-BILLIE: Thank you very much.
-Perfect.
And bring another round
for me and my friends, yes.
Oh, no,
I'm good for now. Yeah.
BILLIE: Oh, no.
I think one is fine.
-Thank you.
-No. It's smart to get now.
The bar gets crazy.
The Ibiza of the Alps, yes?
Oh, right.
-I drink if you not.
-Okay.
Going to clubs.
Ah, ah, ah.
PETE: Nice.
So a night off, huh?
So you find
you get enough time off.
Oh, sure. Enough to catch
a dick whenever I like.
That's great.
Time is nice to have.
Oh. We have guests.
-Charlie.
-Hello.
(SOFTLY) Hi.
-BILLIE: Hello. Hi.
-Hello.
-These are my friends, Billie.
-I'm Billie, yes.
-My wife, Billie. Hi.
-CHARLOTTE: And Pete.
I was just talking about you.
All good, I hope.
-Sure.
-PETE: Yeah.
CHARLIE: Well,
what has she been saying?
(BOTH HESITATING)
It was pretty brief. I mean...
Yeah, she's a fan of yours.
Yeah, positive.
-Positive stuff.
-Yeah.
I said I can catch a dick
whenever I like.
-(EXHALES)
-PETE: Is that...
That's right.
That is what she said. Yeah.
CHARLIE: Right. Uh...
Okay, no,
I just thought, you know...
I thought...
-I was kidding.
-(LAUGHS)
(LAUGHING)
Why? You think
we're getting married?
No! God, no!
Okay.
CHARLIE: I didn't think
we're getting married.
I just thought...
we had
a really nice day today...
(MOUTHING) I wanna go.
CHARLIE: I just, you know...
Uh-huh.
So you two
know each other from...?
Oh, well, I'm...
Well, here.
Yeah.
Yeah, I came in on Sunday
and she showed me around.
Yeah,
but you are a quick learner.
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
CHARLIE: Quick.
And you have a good day
on the mountain?
Ugh. We had a great day.
Great conditions.
Just a real alpine experience.
-Yeah.
-Well...
we almost all died
in an avalanche.
What?
-But, yeah, it was great.
-PETE: Billie.
It was fantastic.
Billie, hold on.
I mean, there was a moment.
It was an avalanche.
-Good lord.
-Good fuck!
-No, I mean, there was...
-Yeah.
For a moment,
it could've felt dicey.
BILLIE: Hang on a second.
For quite a moment,
it felt incredibly dicey.
-Seriously.
-Okay.
And then it was over,
and it was fine.
We were all fine.
The kids were really scared.
PETE: Of course.
No question.
I mean, Pete,
what they saw was...
Scary for them.
Absolutely.
Yes.
But we're here and they're
upstairs watching a movie.
Just hanging out.
And I guess...
emotionally, we've just been
through a lot lately.
My dad passed away
eight months ago.
Yeah.
-It happens.
-That's a shame.
It's been a lot.
So, uh, we came here.
And that's why we're here.
So let's just be here.
-Okay.
-CHARLIE: Here's to here.
-Here's to here.
-Here's to here.
PETE: My father was
a travel agent for 30 years.
He never really went anywhere.
His knowledge of the world
was based solely on research.
When he retired, alongside
a good buddy of his,
they received this exquisite
set of cut glassware.
He had
a special shelf for them
and he put them up there,
and even when
we came to visit,
he wouldn't bring them down.
I don't know
what he was saving them for.
Maybe nothing.
But, went back home
for the funeral,
I met with Hughie.
That's the friend
of his dad's.
-PETE: Yeah. Yeah.
-Okay.
So we had a toast to Dad with
the same set of glasses,
you know, over at Hughie's.
And after, he just threw them
right into the dishwasher.
And I asked him, "Do you use
those for every day?"
And do you know
what he said to me?
"Every day is all we have."
Yep.
(EXHALES DEEPLY)
Powerful. Powerful stuff.
So, I mean, to me, you know...
today was today.
Here's to today.
CHARLIE: Today!
PETE: Yeah. Yeah.
Even so, I think that
you should report
to resort safety.
Oh.
Yes. If only to give you ease.
That's an excellent idea.
Yes, that's what I wanna do.
-Yeah.
-Right?
-Great. Great idea.
-Yeah.
(BELL DINGS)
(DOOR OPENS)
(DOOR CLOSES)
(SPEAKS GERMAN)
Ja?
-Yeah.
-Yeah. Guys.
So we wish
to make a complaint.
Yes?
Uh, that there was
an avalanche that we, um...
That caused alarm yesterday.
The controlled avalanche
from Zwlferkopf, yes.
Well, you say
it was controlled,
but I think
you need to know
that people
really freaked out.
But everyone was safe, yeah?
Well, we don't know that,
in fact.
I can tell you.
Everyone was safe.
Oh.
Well, that's great.
That is such good news.
'Cause that helps.
That helps to hear that.
Yeah, I gotta say just...
I don't understand
why there weren't
any warnings posted anywhere.
-There was a warning.
-What? Where?
Posted at lifts, gondolas,
hotel receptions,
restaurants, shops,
bars, soda machines, toilets.
Well, I don't know
what to tell you.
We didn't see any of that.
Well...
-Um...
-Is that not correct?
Maybe...
Gosh. I might have seen
something
that mentioned
snow conditions.
Yes. They were everywhere.
So you saw it?
There were a lot of...
I saw one sign.
There was...
-Hold on.
-(SCOFFS)
No, the point
I'm trying to make...
-What is your point?
-Here's the point.
What's your point?
Warning or no warning,
mmm-hmm,
seen it or not,
we would just like
some acknowledgment
that it was handled poorly.
It was handled perfectly.
No, it was not.
-Yes.
-No!
You cannot tell me
that that was the way
it was supposed to go.
-Yes, exactly like that.
-No!
Snow went all over the plates.
Snow went all over the plates.
Here's what I think
you're not picking up on.
This was a huge event
for our family, okay?
And, sir,
I don't wanna make this
a legal matter between us.
-I don't.
-PETE: Mmm. Billie.
-BILLIE: No, I don't wanna...
-I know, but...
BILLIE: What I'm saying
is what I don't want.
We're not in America
where you sue
because your coffee is hot,
madam.
Screw you. I'm an attorney.
PETE: Okay.
You've heard our complaint.
Yeah, well,
someone needs to hear it.
PETE: Thank you for your time.
And "no thank you for
your time" from me. (CHUCKLES)
That is for certain.
-I've got it, okay?
-Okay.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
What a jackass, huh?
Yeah.
Who's a jackass?
Oh, the man
who's supposedly in charge.
That's who.
Yeah, big jackass.
(EXPLOSIONS)
Uh...
Do you, um, have...
Yeah.
-Like that?
-You want to get it like that.
There you go.
ROSIE: How much do you love
traveling with me?
-ZACH: This much.
-(ROSIE GIGGLES)
FINN: (WHISPERS) Mom.
Mom.
What?
Oh, my God.
-Pete?
-Mmm.
What? Oh, okay.
-Oh, my God.
-Should I wake up Em?
Yes. Yes.
And let's not watch people
sleep. I don't like that.
PETE: We gotta go.
Where are we going?
Are we going
to a different mountain?
No, better.
It's gonna be great.
Yeah, it's a Daddy surprise.
Um, I think I should go in
and get something
from the buffet.
We are late though.
I'm starving.
No, I'm gonna get
a little fruit, okay?
PETE: No, you know,
we'll be fine.
EMERSON: Dad! Dad!
Car! Car! Car!
PETE: Can you pop the trunk,
please?
We're here. Sorry.
The Stantons?
-PETE: Yep. That's us.
-Hi.
They were just about to go.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
We overslept.
Come on, guys.
Let's go. Let's go.
Hey, we're heli-skiing, guys.
How cool is that, huh?
FINN: Awesome!
Yeah. A little Daddy treat.
Daddy thought of it.
I'm so hungry.
Once we get up
on the powder, bud,
you'll forget all about that.
Yeah, maybe they have
a protein bar or something.
Do you have a bar?
Ah, yes.
Yes, there is a seat belt.
What?
We really should climb on now.
Please.
Oh, is there gonna be
a briefing?
Yes, yes!
We can do that on the way!
Please, come!
Where's my glove?
You mean we're just gonna go?
Isn't there
any more information
that we need to have?
As in?
We'll get all that
when we get on board!
-Mom!
-What?
I can't find my glove!
Why are you so stupid?
Hey! Hey!
No.
Come here a second.
-Come here.
-(HELICOPTER WHIRRING)
Guys, what don't we do?
Call people names.
And so
what do you say now, Finn?
I'm sorry.
Good job, Finn.
Hang on, Pete.
No, not good job.
Look him in the eye right now
and say it loud and clear,
so he can hear you
and understand you.
FINN: I'm sorry!
-We should go!
-PETE: There we go!
Please! Please!
We really should depart!
The weather may change!
Okay. It's just that
he's missing a glove.
Wait a minute. What?
Change to what?
PETE: Let's go!
Every day is all we have!
I understand that, Pete,
but he doesn't have a glove.
We're missing a glove here,
and she just said something
about the weather changing.
They're gonna have
a spare glove! Yeah!
You have a spare?
I don't know! Come! Please!
They've gotta have
spare gloves!
She just said
she doesn't know!
Well, he can borrow yours!
What?
Then I'll get cold, Peter!
PETE: Okay, okay!
He can borrow mine!
It'll fly off!
It doesn't fit him!
PETE: Do you have
spare gloves?
(LOUDLY)
Do you have spare gloves?
Protein bars?
Billie, I spent two grand
on this, okay?
-I'm well aware of that, Pete!
-Okay, let's go!
Let's have a great time, okay?
Come on!
What? No!
Pete, stop!
Don't walk away from us!
We are missing gloves!
The children are starving!
And there's something
about the weather changing!
Get in the car!
(SIGHS)
FINN: Do you want help, Mom?
BILLIE: No, thank you!
FINN: Are you sure?
BILLIE: It's fine!
Get in the car!
In the car!
Here's your glove, sweetie.
Okay.
All right. Well, we still have
the rest of the afternoon.
What's everyone up for?
Beach?
(CHUCKLES)
If we gobble all this up,
we'll still have an hour,
hour and a half
up on the mountain.
I think we're gonna cut
our losses for today.
Just hunker down
this afternoon.
We could sit around the fire
and make popcorn.
And then maybe later,
you boys can watch a movie,
and you and I
can have some time.
I love that idea.
BILLIE: Me too.
-Yeah. I think that's smart.
-Yeah.
-(CUTLERY CLATTERS)
-Fruit.
Guys, put fruit
in yourselves, please.
I could do something
but I feel really bad for Mom.
All right, I'm sorry.
Oh, don't you love me?
You're telling me
that they just showed up?
No. They were nearby
and actually called.
They just happened to call?
Billie, yes, they called.
When?
When did they call actually?
-When?
-Yeah. When?
When I was in the bathroom.
You know Zach.
No. No. Actually I don't.
I don't know Zach, Pete.
Not well.
Not like the way you know
your work buddy. Right?
And I certainly don't know
the woman.
I'm sorry, okay? I didn't know
how to play the phone call.
Shh!
-Can we help?
-Hey.
-Oh, no. Stay seated.
-No. We're good.
Yeah, you guys just relax.
I hope they like carrot sticks
and Goldfish.
I'm sorry, I should've...
Yeah, well, but now you can't.
-(LAUGHING) Oh. Okay. Hey.
-Hey.
Ugh, that looks so good.
It does?
PETE: All right.
So, you guys,
let's hear about this trip.
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Well, I mean,
from what we remember...
it's been epic.
From what I've seen, yeah.
It's been intense.
We've hit, what, like,
three countries in four days.
Just Tuesday, we were having
morning strudel in Dsseldorf
and by that afternoon,
we were hiking along
the Rhine River in France.
Oh, my gosh. Wow.
And, um, there might have been
some shrooms
-on one or all of those days.
-(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Does that sound weird
when I say it?
ROSIE: No.
I loved the way you said it.
ZACH: "Shrooms"?
Do I sound like a narc?
ROSIE: Shroomies.
ZACH: Shrooms.
-ROSIE: Shrooms. Just shrooms.
-Shrooms. We did shrooms.
So you did shrooms?
-Yes. We did shrooms.
-Yeah, we did.
Okay, got it.
ZACH: I don't know, I think
the whole point of this trip
was me just stepping
out of my comfort zone
and following Rosie's lead,
and so that's what
I've been doing,
and I've just been
relinquishing all of this...
ROSIE: Not relinquishing.
Expanding.
ZACH: Expanding.
ROSIE: Yeah.
ZACH: Yeah, sorry.
Um, I've been expanding.
ROSIE: His world.
It's a positive thing.
-PETE: Okay.
-Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, you know
how blind people,
all their other senses
get more intense?
-PETE: Right.
-Yeah.
Being with Rosie is like that.
But I didn't even
have to go blind.
ROSIE: Babe.
-ZACH: Seriously.
-Oh.
I call her Rosie the Riveting.
-(BOTH CHUCKLE)
-ROSIE: He does.
And it's so good for me,
'cause you know me, Pete.
Yeah, I do.
I mean, normally
I'm all about hotels and...
-Right?
-ROSIE: Yeah.
ZACH: Room service,
crisp sheets.
PETE: Right, right, right.
You know,
at breakfast I'm thinking,
"Okay, well, where are we
gonna have dinner?"
And then, before I go to bed,
I'm thinking,
"Well, tomorrow we should get
breakfast at that same place
"because they have
that one thing that I like."
ROSIE: We're experimenting
with new.
ZACH: Thank you.
It's a really good place
for him to live.
You have to live there.
Hey, I know I'm not leaving.
(CHUCKLES)
ROSIE: Yeah, we just found
in each other this desire
to share our lives
in a certain way.
So it's about travel,
adventure.
We don't see ourselves
having kids,
so it's about us
living for us.
Hashtag no agenda.
-I mean, we love that.
-ROSIE: Aw.
That's all Rosie.
She nails the hashtags.
-ROSIE: Thanks.
-Oh, you're the one.
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
And, I mean, no agenda's
what got us here tonight,
right?
I mean, we didn't know
what tonight was gonna be,
and then you texted
and here we are.
ROSIE: Yeah, we don't even
have return tickets.
Like, who knows what's next?
(CHUCKLES)
Well, you kinda know
what's next, don't you?
'Cause you have work
on Monday.
Correct?
Oh. Yeah, no,
I mean, for sure.
Oh, no, yeah.
We'll get tickets home.
I have to show
a commercial space
-in Cambridge at 8:30, so...
-Mmm-hmm.
ZACH: Yeah.
So what about you guys?
You guys getting
in good ski days?
Yeah. Yeah, good. Yeah.
ZACH: Cool.
Um, I mean,
we did have a moment
that was (CLEARS THROAT)
a little unnerving.
But we got over it
and we've been having
a great time.
(SCOFFS) God.
Oh.
Okay, what happened?
It was just an event
that we got through.
-ZACH: Yeah. That's it.
-That was all.
ZACH: It's good
to come through events.
PETE: Exactly.
No, we're good now.
Yeah, it was nothing.
It wasn't nothing.
No. Okay. Yeah. Okay.
That's the wrong word.
At all.
I mean, it was something.
Yeah.
(SCOFFS) We were sitting
outside at a restaurant,
and there was this huge bang.
And suddenly,
this wall of snow
comes rumbling down
the mountain,
and it did not look
like it was gonna stop.
It looked like
it was gonna kill us.
For a moment.
No! No! Absolutely not.
Because other people
felt exactly the same way.
They were getting up.
They were screaming.
I screamed.
And the kids were screaming.
Because it felt
like this was it.
That we were gonna die.
Um...
And I look over at Pete...
and he had jumped up
and grabbed his phone.
He was gone.
Pete ran. Pete left us.
(VOICE BREAKING)
I guess in his mind, um...
he left us there
to get buried...
because, um,
he could make it away,
and we were too far away.
You know, we were on
the other side of the, uh...
I don't know.
Anyway, so I throw my arms
around my children...
and just wait, you know?
I just wait for us
to die together.
(SNIFFLES) Sorry.
Anyway, so then, um,
moments pass...
and oh, my God,
I'm still there.
And the kids stop screaming.
And we're okay, we realize.
We're okay.
And then Pete comes back...
and just orders soup.
So...
That's intense.
Yeah.
But, you know, I think...
You know, I think
in a situation like that...
I think it's probably
a survival reaction
that kicks in.
Right, Pete?
You don't even have time
to think. It's a reflex.
It's like when a sea cucumber
perceives a threat,
it rapidly evacuates all of
its organs through its rectum.
How could I have possibly
run away?
-What?
-In ski boots?
How is that possible?
Can you run in ski boots?
Wait, what?
Zach, can you run
in ski boots?
-It's not recommended.
-BILLIE: Oh, fine.
Clomp away.
Walk briskly away. I mean...
No. You said "run."
Rosie,
can you run in ski boots?
Not very well, but...
Boom. Exactly.
ROSIE: Regardless, I wouldn't
leave my family to die.
That's "boom, exactly."
No, no, nor would I.
And I didn't.
It's just she said you did.
BILLIE: Yeah, because he did.
For fuck's sakes, Billie.
Why are you...
And I didn't leave you
to be buried.
-I don't know.
-Well, I do.
I was there
and I saw it differently.
So then tell me, Pete.
What happened differently?
Please.
-The snow was coming.
-Right.
Almost like an avalanche.
Oh, now it's not even
an avalanche.
PETE: I checked
on you guys visually,
and when I made sure
that everyone was okay,
I ran to get help.
Hang on a second.
That doesn't even make sense!
You knew that we were okay,
so you went to get help?
What?
It happened very fast.
It was very confusing.
Right. Survival reaction.
PETE: But I checked to
make sure you guys were okay
and then I went to get help.
That's not what happened,
Peter.
Billie, I can accept
your version of the truth.
Why can't you accept mine?
Because mine is true
and not dumb.
-You weren't there with me!
-Right!
That's exactly right. I was at
the table with our children.
I just love
that you're making me say
that what happened for you
happened for me.
BILLIE: Okay.
(DOOR OPENS)
I mean, Pete,
like a lot of times,
the people involved
in automobile accidents
get the events of the accident
completely wrong.
-Stop pitching theories, Zach.
-Yeah, sorry.
Fuck.
BILLIE: Just come on out here
for a sec. Um...
Sorry.
We just have one question.
Billie, no.
-Yeah, yeah.
-PETE: No.
You can say... I was talking
with our friends
about, uh, when we were
having lunch, remember?
And then the avalanche
was coming...
and, um, can you say
what happened next?
They can say.
It's for the story
and, um, they wanted to know.
They can say, right, Pete?
Sure.
The truth.
Um...
Dad ran away.
BILLIE: And Finn?
Is that what you think
happened, too?
-Mmm-hmm.
-Okay.
Okay, guys. Thanks.
You can go back
to your funny movie.
They're such great kids.
You might have traumatized
them, you know that?
Oh, I traumatized them?
You care so much about
being right, don't you?
No, I just wanna get
this straight.
No, you just
want to get it right.
So, congratulations, Billie,
you win. You're right.
Everyone give Billie
a fucking round of applause.
BILLIE: Hey, Pete?
You left your family!
That I am right about!
(DOOR CLOSES)
(MEN SPEAKING IN GERMAN ON TV)
(RADIO PLAYING IN GERMAN)
(TURNS OFF)
Hey. Uh, I'm gonna take
a solo day today.
Oh. Okay.
So you and the boys
can have an adventure.
Yeah, fine.
Maybe we'll cross paths
on the mountain.
Actually, I saw a leaflet
for one of those
Alpine rail slides.
The boys might really
enjoy that.
It's at the family resort...
the one that's just minutes
of 20 from here.
Great.
-Sure.
-Great.
(DOOR CLOSES)
-(CLICKS)
-Oh.
CHARLOTTE: Getting an eyeful?
Oh.
(CHUCKLES) Hello.
No, no, no. I was just...
And where is your team?
Oh, I'm taking
a solo day today.
Good.
Adventure.
Just for you.
Yeah. Adventure.
Fun. Just for you.
Yeah. Fun.
You want fun?
Yeah.
Fun.
Good.
-Oh!
-Come.
BILLIE: Oh, I think that
this is the line right here.
No, no,
this wait is not for you.
Oh. (CHUCKLES)
Sorry.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay. Oh, great.
Well, once again,
thank you so much
for your help.
Adventure, yes?
Now? Fun?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All of it. Right.
(CHARLOTTE SPEAKS ITALIAN)
Oh, you're coming?
-CHARLOTTE: Yeah. I come with.
-Ah.
Wonderful. Yeah.
So, I am interested
on another question.
Oh, good. Okay.
Have you had varied life
of sexual experience?
What? I'm sorry?
Have you had a varied life
of sexual experience?
No, no, no. I'm not asking you
so that you would repeat that.
We're in a public space.
I'm just saying.
At that age, they rarely
bother with the English.
Boy, you really get
right in there, don't you?
I'm sorry. I just don't like
so much bullshit all the time.
Yeah, I get that.
I'm not a fan of the bullshit
myself either.
-You just seem to me like...
-Like what?
You haven't been
all the blocks around.
-Me?
-Yeah.
Oh, no, no, no.
You'd be surprised actually.
In college,
I had, um, so many boyfriends.
I mean, I really knew
my way around.
I mean,
I did my fair share of...
(LAUGHTER)
I don't like to perform that.
(SCOFFS) Nobody likes it.
I just tend to do
only what I like.
-Mmm.
-I masturbate.
Every day.
Because that is for me.
And having sex with guests...
Yes, that is very for me.
But you're married.
Is that right?
-Are you? Is that the case?
-Yeah. Yeah.
Okay. So how does that work
with everything?
With your Mr. Charlie
and whatever
other fellow you happen...
Easy.
I spend the winters here,
and in the summer, my husband
and I have the farm.
And your husband
is cool with that?
No, my husband, my husband.
-What?
-Can we shake hands?
Now, should I tell my husband
about this? Should you?
What are you talking about?
Our bodies touched.
We have a little intimacy.
Oh, please.
Well, why?
Why is there this absurdity?
When these two parts of our
bodies touch, no big deal.
Because it's very...
But the other parts, oh, no.
No.
The bodies touch,
the special parts.
-Well, yes, they're special.
-Oh, my goodness.
What shall we do? The god
is angry in the heaven,
-so the marriage must be over.
-Well, no, not that.
The special parts have rubbed.
It's superstition.
It isn't, actually.
I mean, for instance,
shaking hands
doesn't make babies, does it?
-Oh, please.
-Well.
Sex doesn't need
to make babies.
No, I know that.
And you don't need sex
to make the babies, yeah?
Of course not, but...
So, can we all just move on
now, please?
But what I mean is,
is that in a relationship,
it seems to me you need to be
on the same page, right?
I mean, it's like a story,
and you both have to be
in the same story.
Well, I guess
I make my own story.
Of course, yeah. But...
I'm happy.
Are you happy?
Yeah.
Good.
Yeah.
Then you're happy
with your story,
and I'm happy with mine.
-Okay.
-Yes?
-Mmm-hmm.
-Yes?
Yes. I said, "Yes."
I said, "Yes." Yes, yes, yes.
-Good.
-Yeah.
I'm a little sore.
Mr. Charlie is an animal.
-(CHUCKLES)
-Good, we're here.
I can't sit. (CHUCKLES)
And now, Guglielmo will be
your instructor.
Wait. What?
Who will be my what?
Bye-bye. Have fun.
(SPEAKING ITALIAN)
You ready?
Uh... I don't know.
This way.
This place is awesome.
Yeah.
Why aren't we staying here?
Yeah. It's fine.
I mean, it's different.
I don't know if it's better.
Just different.
(GASPS) Finn! Here it is!
FINN: Let's go.
So.
So. Yeah.
The first thing
of instruction is?
I honestly have no idea.
I don't...
Coffee. (SPEAKS ITALIAN)
BILLIE: Oh. Okay.
GUGLIELMO: (LAUGHS)
Buongiorno.
BILLIE: Buongiorno to you.
So, listen, actually Charlotte
said your name very quickly.
-I didn't quite...
-Guglielmo.
It's very simple.
"Gu" like Google, "gli" like
we, "elmo" like helmet.
Um, I...
You can call me G.
-G.
-Yes.
G.
Just to be clear,
I didn't sign up
-for an instructor today.
-Uh-huh.
'Cause I was gonna just take
-a solo day.
-Uh-huh.
Um, 'cause I'm
a pretty decent skier.
And why stop at decent?
No, I mean...
There is
better than decent, no?
Yes, of course, there's better
than decent, yeah.
Okay. So, you see this coffee?
I do.
It's decent. Yeah.
-Uh-huh.
-Boring. Okay?
Oh, hold it?
Yes. But...
Yeah. A-ha!
-Alpine coffee.
-(LAUGHS)
Better.
Yeah, that's better
than decent, I suppose.
Yeah.
Okay. Wow.
Way better than decent.
(BOTH SPEAKING ITALIAN)
Mmm.
So, thank you
for the better than decent.
GUGLIELMO: You're welcome.
I appreciate it.
I'm gonna take off.
Okay.
Wait, wait, wait. Billie.
I'm gonna tell you what, okay?
Yeah.
So, we will ski together
a little bit,
and then after that
if you want to be solo,
you be solo.
(CHUCKLES) Okay.
Good, G.
Yes. Give me five.
Yes.
(SHOUTS)
PETE: Finn, buddy,
ease up on your brakes!
It's no fun if you go slow!
FINN: You're too close!
PETE: Buddy, come on!
Your brother's way ahead!
(CAMERA CLICKS)
PETE: I warned you.
Here I come!
FINN: Dad, stop!
(WHOOPING)
I'm coming for ya!
I'm gonna tap you, okay?
-No. Don't!
-What?
Don't!
Gonna get you, Finn!
I'm gonna get you, bro!
-FINN: Don't!
-Dad's on your tail, bro!
-Don't!
-(CAMERA CLICKS)
WOMAN: We post rules.
You cannot bump.
No, I'm sorry.
I know,
but I barely tapped him.
Let's see,
they have a toboggan run.
Arcade.
Uh, indoor miniature golf.
Lot of good stuff.
Any of that sound good?
I don't care.
What's up?
Doesn't seem like
you wanna be here.
Of course I do.
I love spending time with you
more than anything.
Right?
Is it about the slide?
Okay, so Daddy got
kicked off the slide, yes.
Because Daddy was having
too much fun.
Okay, you know what?
Let's just try to end this day
on a high note, all right?
And you guys go ahead
and pick something right here.
Go ahead. We can do
multiple things if you want.
Can we just have screen time
back at our hotel?
Sure.
I like that, yeah.
GUGLIELMO: Yes!
-(BILLIE WHOOPING)
-Good!
BILLIE: (WHOOPING) Whoa.
How about that?
That's a lot of work, huh?
GUGLIELMO: But good, yes?
BILLIE: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
So, how do your calves feel?
Well, I can feel them
all right.
-Yeah?
-Oh, yeah.
Good.
Maybe you want to, yeah,
take them out.
Yeah, I think so.
For, like, 10 minutes
or something.
Yeah, my right boot
in particular
is driving me crazy.
They can burn here, no?
Yes.
You know, sometimes
I can give people...
on the calves or something,
like a rub, you know?
(SPEAKS ITALIAN)
Oh. Sometimes you can do that,
can you? (SCOFFS)
Yeah. That's something I do.
Oh, you do?
Yeah. Just to, you know,
relax out those tight muscles.
It's recommended.
Oh, really?
Well, if it's recommended,
yeah.
-Sure.
-Let me.
Yeah.
Sorry, I'm a little sweaty.
It's okay.
You have nice feet.
Oh.
(BOTH SPEAKING ITALIAN)
So...
I'm curious.
Yeah?
Who is Billie?
(CHUCKLES)
What?
Why is that silly?
I want to know.
(HESITATES)
Um...
It sounds sort of like a...
Well, "who"?
How do you even answer?
I am very confident,
but I'm not afraid to admit
when I'm wrong.
I tend to fall in love
too fast. Heal too slow.
And I love to paint.
And actually,
I'm very good at it.
However, I cannot sing,
but that does not stop me
from doing it every day.
Skiing is a passion,
but, you know,
just teaching feeds my soul.
To witness
people surprise themselves,
that's what I live for.
And, uh, I am the only child
of a single mom...
and she is my hero.
Oh, that's lovely.
That's how I answer.
You know...
you don't have to share
with me who you are, Billie.
But you must promise me.
What?
Promise me you're not
gonna find it silly
if someone wants to
make it about you.
I promise that.
Okay. Um... (CLEARS THROAT)
Thank you very much.
I'm sorry. Scusami.
I apologize if I...
Do not apologize.
I did exactly
what I wanted to do.
Yeah. And now
I, uh, wanna ski.
Yeah.
-Yeah. Yeah.
-Okay.
Okay.
But just to be clear,
I could fuck you
right through that wall
right now if I wanted.
But I won't. And I wouldn't.
That much I know about me.
In answer
to your earlier question.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Oh, my God.
(BREATHING DEEPLY)
(GASPS, GROANS)
Oh.
Okay.
Ah. There are my gloves.
(CLEARS THROAT)
How was your solo day?
It was great. Yeah.
Awesome.
Me and the boys had fun.
Good.
Yeah, we spent a good while
on the slide.
Great.
(PEOPLE SPEAKING IN GERMAN

(KNOCKING)
FINN: That's funny.
Morning.
EMERSON: Morning, Dad.
FINN: Morning.
Hey.
Everybody sleep okay?
FINN: Mmm-hmm. Yeah.
BILLIE: Mmm-hmm.
Are we, um...
Um, we're just...
We're gonna just do this
for now.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
Yeah, Zach had texted
about joining us.
I think
Rosie's sleeping in, so...
BILLIE: Oh. Great.
Okay. Well, you guys have fun.
Should we meet up for dinner?
Maybe a place in town?
Sure.
So I'll text you.
BILLIE: Okay.
Cool.
All right.
All right, guys. Have fun.
-Okay. We will.
-You too.
EMERSON: Bye.
FINN: Bye.
EMERSON: Bye.
BILLIE: Okay.
FINN: I like pugs, too.
They're just unbeatable.
I'm not gonna get over that.
PETE: Whoo!
Yeah!
(BOTH EXHALE)
I mean...
how great is this?
Oh, my God! Look at this.
It's like one of those
screensavers.
We're in a stock image
right now.
There's only one thing I have
to worry about right now.
Okay.
Only one obligation.
And that's going down.
-That's it.
-Yeah.
-Just live your best life.
-That's it.
Yeah.
Every day is all we have.
-Fuck yeah, man.
-Right?
Fucking A.
PETE: Whoo!
(MAN SPEAKS GERMAN)
-(MAN SPEAKS GERMAN)
-PETE: Shit!
-(PETE GRUNTS)
-MAN: Idiot!
(BOTH GRUNTING)
(GRUNTS)
Do I seem okay to you?
ZACH: Yeah. I think.
You don't think
I have a concussion?
No, I don't think so,
because you didn't puke
or anything.
No, no, no.
No, I haven't felt nauseous.
Have I been repeating myself?
I don't know.
I mean, like, you've asked me
a few times if you seem okay.
-But that's it?
-Yeah.
Hi. Hi.
-Hello. Hi.
-Hi. Hi.
Yeah. Uh...
My friend
just wanted to say hi.
-Ooh.
-Oh.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
She likes
the way you carry yourself.
-That's very kind.
-Yeah.
Yeah, where, uh...
Oh, yeah. That's nice.
ZACH: Oh, my God.
She thinks you are the
best-groomed man in this bar.
Well, thank you.
Yeah.
Uh... Okay.
-That's okay, right?
-(ALL LAUGHING)
Check you out.
What do we...
I mean,
do we send a drink over?
Should we go,
just talk to them?
I think for me, you know,
with Rosie...
No. No, no. Right.
I mean, I'm already punching
above my weight there,
and I don't want
to mess that up.
PETE: Oh, my God,
no, you got a good thing.
-Yeah. Totally.
-Yeah.
She's, like, changed my life
and I love...
-(WOMEN LAUGHING)
-Yeah, that's good to hear.
I love it.
ZACH: I mean, you know,
the whole
moving to Europe thing...
I don't know if I'd really
want to be that far
-from my family...
-Mmm-hmm.
...and she's pretty adamant
about not wanting kids,
but me...
Right.
I don't know.
But for now, yeah.
Yeah, we're good.
Wow.
Man, I did not hate that.
Oh. Yeah.
It's been a while.
I used to be good
at flirting, too.
Really?
I mean, really good.
Well, you have that energy.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
-Still?
-You do.
-Hi.
-Hello again.
-Sorry.
-Hello. Hi.
It wasn't you.
What's that?
It wasn't you.
She didn't like the way
you carried yourself.
-Oh.
-It was him.
The green man.
(LAUGHS)
-PETE: Yeah.
-Sorry.
Hey, so what's your name?
Bye.
Yeah, she's right.
That guy is a catch.
Yeah, can I be honest
with you, Pete?
I do see a resemblance.
-No.
-Yes.
Come on. No, it's okay.
Honestly. I'm good.
I'm so good.
So much so.
(EXHALES)
ZACH: So, do you feel
like skiing more?
PETE: No.
Let's just keep drinking.
Billie?
Yes?
Hey!
Oh, hi, guys.
-Hi.
-You going up?
Um, yeah. We... Yes.
Do you mind if I...?
Oh, sure, yeah.
Join us. Absolutely.
-Mom.
-Yes?
Can we go up by ourselves?
-Sure, yeah, if you want to.
-Yeah, let's do that. Yes!
But can you wait for me
at the top? Okay?
-Yeah, we will.
-Okay.
BILLIE: Look at this.
ROSIE: Yeah. Stunning.
BILLIE: The sun
is really poking out now.
ROSIE: Mmm-hmm.
So, how you doing today?
Um...
I'm better, I guess.
Well, I don't know.
I am so sorry
that you guys were there for
all of that the other night.
I know that we just met.
Why are you apologizing?
(LAUGHS)
Well, I shouldn't have
involved the kids like that.
That was not wise.
Okay, fine, but you have
nothing to apologize about.
What he did was fucked up.
Yeah, but... (CLEARS THROAT)
I probably shouldn't have
attacked him like that.
He's grieving right now.
A lot. 'Cause his dad died
about eight months ago.
People die. It happens.
It sucks.
But that doesn't excuse
why he ran away
like a fucking pussy.
You don't owe him anything.
You have a right to be angry.
(BREATHES DEEPLY)
Thank you.
I'll tell you this much.
If Zach ever did that to me,
I would kick him in the nuts
and he would never
see me again.
-(LAUGHS)
-It's black and white.
Well...
I'm not sure.
No, it is.
It's black and white.
(SNIFFS)
How old are you?
-Thirty.
-Oh.
-(DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)
-(PEOPLE SHOUTING EXCITEDLY)
-We're home.
-Yeah.
(MUSIC CONTINUES)
Mmm. Mmm-mmm.
Hey, green guy.
(GRUNTS)
I got it. Got it.
Jerk.
-Hey.
-Hey.
You all right?
You gotta get some air.
This place is dead.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Okay.
We should get you out of here.
It's almost 7:00.
Whoa. Okay. Hey.
Okay.
-I think it's time for pizza.
-No.
-Or coffee or something.
-No.
No. I gotta stay hungry
for dinner with my family.
So...
Yeah.
I just think
before you see your family,
it might be a good idea
to get some food.
I love my family.
-(LAUGHING) Yeah, I know.
-Okay?
-I know.
-I do.
I know.
Billie and I didn't even
think of doing it
for the longest time.
Kids.
So we did the fertility thing.
And then we just said,
you know,
if science wants us
to be parents,
then we'll be parents.
If not, that's okay.
And science made us parents.
Yeah, I mean,
you got a beautiful family.
You lose a parent
and the ticking gets louder.
I mean, you really wanna know
how old you are?
Look at your kids. (SCOFFS)
Every day they change.
I mean, yeah, we get older.
But you can't forget
about you.
It happens.
You think about yourself.
Yeah, I know.
Hey, Pete.
Come here.
Pete...
we're gonna get you coffee.
I know. That's what I said.
Right?
-Yeah.
-Come on.
-I got you.
-(PETE GRUNTS)
Yum.
Yours?
I'm not that hungry.
Okay. Did you already eat?
'Cause I didn't eat
to stay hungry.
So I'm hungry.
All right.
Mom, keycard. Keycard.
Thanks.
Billie? Billie, stop.
Can I just say something?
Please?
-Well, I...
-Can I?
Pete, honestly,
it's not a good idea.
No, I just...
It's really not a good idea
to do this right now.
Please. Let me just...
Billie, just listen to me.
(SIGHS) What happened...
is what you said happened.
I ran.
I didn't know
how to make sense of it.
I didn't want to.
It's not like I didn't see it.
I keep seeing it, Billie.
I see it now.
How you look at me.
And how our sons look at me.
I hate it.
I was just afraid
that if I said it out loud,
then it would be true.
I'm just a selfish coward.
Capable of...
This is what you say
four days ago, Pete.
Instead, you made me feel
like a complete idiot.
Like it was my fault.
I can't stop
an avalanche, Billie.
No one is asking you
to stop an avalanche.
What are you even
talking about?
I just want you to want to
survive one with us, Pete.
Morning.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Morning.
Morning.
BILLIE: Morning.
Looks like we got hit
with a big dump of snow.
Should we, uh, head to the top
of the mountain?
For a final run?
Tackle the Beast?
Yeah, sure.
Does that sound good?
Tackle the Beast?
BILLIE: Sure.
Unless I decide to go
to Switzerland.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
I hate skiing.
-No, he doesn't.
-Finn.
You're not in my body.
It's cold and dumb.
You're always wet
and it hurts when you fall.
It takes forever if you have
to go to the bathroom.
People are just stupid.
They don't look
where they're going,
so you're always scared
you're gonna die.
And I have to go
to the bathroom.
-(EXPLOSION)
-Oh.
Hey, hey.
It's okay, you guys.
It's okay. You're fine.
I'm here.
You know,
I think I'm all skied out.
I say we call it.
Get some hot cocoa?
-Warm up? Yeah?
-EMERSON: Yeah.
PETE: Honey,
why don't you go ahead?
We'll wait for you,
down at the bottom.
Come on, guys.
(MAN WHOOPING)
Where is she?
BILLIE: Pete!

Peter!
Stay here.

(PEOPLE SHOUTING)
(PANTING)
Hey.
You okay?
This is for our boys.
For how they see you.
But as far as you and I
are concerned,
if you don't like the way
that I look at you,
then show me
something different.
You show me someone
who really wants to be here.
But I do.
No, I mean
through it all, Pete.
Because if you can't...
then you can just go down
the mountain by yourself.
No, I'm here.
For all of it.
Now rescue me.
What happened, Mom?
Yeah, are you okay?
Yeah. I'm fine.
She's good.
Oh.
I forgot my skis.
Oh.
Okay, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Okay.
-BILLIE: Please, guys, slow.
-(BOYS SHOUTING)
PETE: Watch it!
Hey!
(SPEAKING ITALIAN)
Until we meet
in a different lifetime.
-Is he talking to you?
-Mmm.
Yeah,
that's, um, my ski instructor.
Oh, I didn't know
you took a ski lesson.
Yeah, I told you that.
You did?
Wait, what?
Hashtag we refuse to leave.
-Hi!
-Oh, hey!
Hashtag not leaving.
God.
-I am getting so sick of that.
-I don't know why that's fun.
BILLIE: Oh, you guys.
PETE: Hey.
-Safe travels.
-PETE: All right. You too.
Really nice to meet you.

Honey, don't put your thing
on his ski.
You're gonna get...
-You're stepping on my ski!
-The underside?
BILLIE: Like that?
EMERSON: Closer together?
FINN: I don't know.
BILLIE: Guys, smile.

Put your arms up. Like this.
Like that?
-EMERSON: Hey!
-(CAMERA CLICKS)
FINN: Oh, my God!
EMERSON: Finn!
-You're on my ski, okay? Stop!
-Guys.
Guys.
Just separate the boys.
And then I should...
Guys, you're separated.
-(CONTINUES IN GERMAN)
-FINN: Stop!
BILLIE:
Can you say that again?
PETE: He wants me to get
on the underside.
EMERSON: Are you serious?
BILLIE: No, no, no.
Pete, stay where you are.
PETE: Don't shoot this part.
Wait till we're ready.
Please stand up straight.
-Please look into the camera.
-EMERSON: I'm trying.
Please just smile.
BILLIE: Come on, guys,

PETE: Austria!

PETE: He wants poles up again.
He wants us
to keep doing poles up.

(SWEEPING MUSIC PLAYS)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
A little crowded, huh?
(CHUCKLES)
BILLIE: Yeah, it's lively.
Yeah, I think
it's just that time of day.
I think so, too.
-(THUDS)
-Oh.
Sorry. Sorry.
BILLIE:
Honey, have you noticed
there are no kids around here?
I mean, it seems kinda weird,
don't you think?
PETE: Maybe it's just
different school schedules.
BILLIE: Yeah, maybe.
EMERSON: This way, this way.
Hey, guys, stay where
I can see you, please.
Hi. Thank you. It's Stanton.
Who are you texting?
Uh, Zach.
Zach-from-work Zach?
Yeah.
Oh. Why is he texting you?
Are you friends now?
No. I just told him
about our trip,
and it turns out that he and
his girlfriend, Rosie,
they're traveling
through Europe as well.
Oh, no kidding?
PETE: Amsterdam, it seems,
at the moment.
"Hashtag no agenda."
BILLIE: Oh, come on.
"Hashtag live your best life."
Hashtag get better hashtags.
Yeah. Right, yeah, no, I know.
-Hashtag don't do hashtags.
-PETE: Right.
Hashtag
stop wasting your time.
BILLIE: Right?
With hashtags. (CHUCKLES)
Honey, can you get off
your phone now?
-I'm all done. I'm all done.
-Good.
-Okay.
-Let's just be here, okay?
(SIGHS DEEPLY) I see.
BILLIE: Hello?
PETE: (IN SING-SONG VOICE)
Hello?
Hello, I'm Charlotte.
So, your flight was okay?
Yeah, it was good.
-At what time did you get in?
-PETE: Oh...
Um, I think about midday,
I would...
Yeah, I wanted to get out
on the mountain,
ski before we checked in.
Well, I'm sorry
I was not there to meet you.
Now, what have I got for you?
You are...
-The Stantons.
-Stanton.
Yeah, I know.
-Resort map.
-BILLIE: Oh, thank you.
-Key cards.
-Great.
Oh, actually, I'm curious.
Are there other kids
around here?
No, not here.
The town of Fiss,
maybe minutes of 20 from here.
There is all families.
But here is better.
It's lively.
The Ibiza of the Alps.
And you will want to party
all night.
Now, in Europe,
we think it is unhygienic
to sauna in the swimsuit,
so everyone naked.
Here the body
is not to be ashamed of.
Well, speak for yourself.
No, your body is good.
Celebrate it.
Okay. Yes.
-I will for sure do that.
-Both.
Yeah. No, no. No question.
-CHARLOTTE: Good.
-We'll celebrate it.
So I am here as friend, ja?
Do you want to be my friend?
-Oh. Oh, sure.
-Um...
(LAUGHS) Then we are friends.
-Oh. Great. Wonderful.
-Oh.
Okay.
Oh. Oh, sorry.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Hey, guys, hang up your ski
stuff to dry, please.
-(BOYS GRUNTING)
-Boys, cool it.
Put all that stuff
in drawers, okay?
EMERSON: It hurts!
-Tell you something.
-(BOYS CONTINUE GRUNTING)
Them sharing a queen
is gonna be a disaster.
-Honey.
-(MESSAGE TONE CHIMES)
-(CHUCKLES)
-No. Now I'm done.
Zach kept texting.
Asking about Ischgl
and where we're staying, so...
All right, but we're not
looking for them
to no-agenda their way here,
are we, Pete?
No. No, no, no.
That's why I wanted
to finish that conversation.
BILLIE: Yeah. Good.
Look.
-I found my dad's old hat.
-(GASPS)
I thought I'd bring it
and wear it on the slopes.
No way.
Have him here with us.
That's so sweet.
I love that.
Yeah.
Sorry if I've been,
you know...
Oh.
That's why we're here. Right?
Yeah.
It's good for all of us.
(EXPLOSIONS)
Okay.
-We should stop, right?
-Yeah.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Done.
(BOTH LAUGH)
Okay.
Okay. Seriously.
'Cause we're gonna want a big
breakfast in the morning.
Yes.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
I'm gonna grab a shower.
All right.
Okay.
-PETE: Knock, knock.
-(KNOCKS)
BILLIE: What?
PETE: What?
What do you mean, what?
BILLIE: What?
-PETE: Taking my clothes off.
-(BILLIE LAUGHS)
She said we're supposed
to celebrate our bodies.
BILLIE: I knew you were gonna
pick up on that. (LAUGHS)
(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)
(CHUCKLES)
Yeah.
So we don't lose each other.
Good thinking, right?
There wasn't much left
in the arts and crafts stuff
except for these
back-to-school stickers,
which the boys are not
gonna be too excited about.
No. Yeah.
They won't be too psyched.
Honey, you're gonna wear that
under a helmet, right?
Yes. Yeah, yeah.
-Yeah. Yeah.
-For under. Mmm-hmm.
(BOYS LAUGHING)
BILLIE: Hey, boys,
we're leaving in five.
Get your stuff together.
FINN: Okay.
(BOYS CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
(SIGHS)
PETE: Slow up, Finn!
Hey, hey, hey! Stop!
Whoa. You gotta wait up
for the rest of the group,
okay, bud?
FINN: Okay.
(PETE AND BILLIE EXHALE)
Oh, God.
He's just playing it up.
Honey, honestly,
it's just a phase.
You've gotta let it go.
No, I know.
'Cause, I mean,
the more you make of it...
PETE: The more
we give attention to it...
BILLIE: Right.
PETE: It's gonna become
more of a thing.
BILLIE: It becomes a thing
and, yeah.
-PETE: Yeah. Yeah, got it.
-Exactly.
(BILLIE SIGHS)
Oh, you gotta be kidding me.
PETE: Way to go, Em.
You're like a rocket.
BILLIE:
All right, lookit, guys,
this is what I'm thinking.
I'm thinking we should
just have some soup right now
and then we can have some of
those yummy pastries at 4:00.
And then we'll still be hungry
for dinner.
Doesn't that sound
like a good plan, you guys?
Maybe we ski the Beast
after lunch.
-FINN: I'll do that, Dad.
-Yeah.
Oh. Um... (HESITATES)
I don't think
it'll be that challenging.
It looks black
but it skis red.
Really?
American blue.
Yeah. Several of
the black runs
are American blue.
European red.
They just call 'em black
for the prestige.
Where did you hear that?
I just know it. Yeah.
It'll be fine.
You can handle it.
How about this?
Why don't we go
and we find some good powder?
And then we can
get in some practice runs,
you know, for the, uh...
(CLICKING TONGUE)
Rodeo?
-No, Pete. For the...
-(THUDS)
(ALL EXCLAIMING)
Wow.
(ALL CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)

It's a controlled avalanche.

Is that okay, Pete?

Yeah.
(WOMAN LAUGHING)

Those people are laughing.
WAITER: Everyone okay?
Oh, hey.
-Here we go. Uh...
-We'll clean all this off.
What can I get for you?
I'm gonna go with soup.
Yeah.
-Get the pastries later?
-BILLIE: Uh...
Sure.
PETE: But soup. Soup for now.
Yeah.
-WAITER: Thank you.
-Phew.
Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Stop! Stop!
Stop!
Please.
Watch what you're doing.
(MAN LAUGHS, SPEAKS IN GERMAN)
It's cool, yeah?
No, it's not cool.
You could've crushed my son.
You all right?
Yeah.
(SPEAKING IN GERMAN)
-Please.
-What is going on here?
They stop not hard.
BILLIE: What happened here?
PETE: Let's just walk away
from this.
Let's just walk away.
Everything cool.
PETE: You want help
with your shoes?
EMERSON: No.
What was all of that?
I don't get it.
No, he wasn't looking
and he slid the thing
back on him.
BILLIE: Are you all right?
EMERSON: Yeah, I'm good.
BILLIE: He's fine.
It just startled me.
(BOTH SPEAKING IN GERMAN
ON TV)
You look pretty.
Thank you.
Um...
You think you could...
I'm just...
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
(TAP RUNNING)
(BOTH SPEAKING HINDI)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
-Oh, it's crowded.
-Wow.
So are you gonna say
something about...
-CHARLOTTE: Yay!
-Oh!
My good friends!
Oh, I think
she wants us to, uh...
No, no, no. She's just waving.
Hi.
No, now she's kinda beckoning.
-Okay.
-In a way.
We'll make an excuse.
There's no reason I take.
Okay.
Yeah.
I think it'd be rude now.
-We're with her.
-Oh. Okay.
-The woman in the white.
-No, we're not.
Ah. Yes.
WAITRESS: Your white wine
and scotch.
-BILLIE: Thank you very much.
-Perfect.
And bring another round
for me and my friends, yes.
Oh, no,
I'm good for now. Yeah.
BILLIE: Oh, no.
I think one is fine.
-Thank you.
-No. It's smart to get now.
The bar gets crazy.
The Ibiza of the Alps, yes?
Oh, right.
-I drink if you not.
-Okay.
Going to clubs.
Ah, ah, ah.
PETE: Nice.
So a night off, huh?
So you find
you get enough time off.
Oh, sure. Enough to catch
a dick whenever I like.
That's great.
Time is nice to have.
Oh. We have guests.
-Charlie.
-Hello.
(SOFTLY) Hi.
-BILLIE: Hello. Hi.
-Hello.
-These are my friends, Billie.
-I'm Billie, yes.
-My wife, Billie. Hi.
-CHARLOTTE: And Pete.
I was just talking about you.
All good, I hope.
-Sure.
-PETE: Yeah.
CHARLIE: Well,
what has she been saying?
(BOTH HESITATING)
It was pretty brief. I mean...
Yeah, she's a fan of yours.
Yeah, positive.
-Positive stuff.
-Yeah.
I said I can catch a dick
whenever I like.
-(EXHALES)
-PETE: Is that...
That's right.
That is what she said. Yeah.
CHARLIE: Right. Uh...
Okay, no,
I just thought, you know...
I thought...
-I was kidding.
-(LAUGHS)
(LAUGHING)
Why? You think
we're getting married?
No! God, no!
Okay.
CHARLIE: I didn't think
we're getting married.
I just thought...
we had
a really nice day today...
(MOUTHING) I wanna go.
CHARLIE: I just, you know...
Uh-huh.
So you two
know each other from...?
Oh, well, I'm...
Well, here.
Yeah.
Yeah, I came in on Sunday
and she showed me around.
Yeah,
but you are a quick learner.
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
CHARLIE: Quick.
And you have a good day
on the mountain?
Ugh. We had a great day.
Great conditions.
Just a real alpine experience.
-Yeah.
-Well...
we almost all died
in an avalanche.
What?
-But, yeah, it was great.
-PETE: Billie.
It was fantastic.
Billie, hold on.
I mean, there was a moment.
It was an avalanche.
-Good lord.
-Good fuck!
-No, I mean, there was...
-Yeah.
For a moment,
it could've felt dicey.
BILLIE: Hang on a second.
For quite a moment,
it felt incredibly dicey.
-Seriously.
-Okay.
And then it was over,
and it was fine.
We were all fine.
The kids were really scared.
PETE: Of course.
No question.
I mean, Pete,
what they saw was...
Scary for them.
Absolutely.
Yes.
But we're here and they're
upstairs watching a movie.
Just hanging out.
And I guess...
emotionally, we've just been
through a lot lately.
My dad passed away
eight months ago.
Yeah.
-It happens.
-That's a shame.
It's been a lot.
So, uh, we came here.
And that's why we're here.
So let's just be here.
-Okay.
-CHARLIE: Here's to here.
-Here's to here.
-Here's to here.
PETE: My father was
a travel agent for 30 years.
He never really went anywhere.
His knowledge of the world
was based solely on research.
When he retired, alongside
a good buddy of his,
they received this exquisite
set of cut glassware.
He had
a special shelf for them
and he put them up there,
and even when
we came to visit,
he wouldn't bring them down.
I don't know
what he was saving them for.
Maybe nothing.
But, went back home
for the funeral,
I met with Hughie.
That's the friend
of his dad's.
-PETE: Yeah. Yeah.
-Okay.
So we had a toast to Dad with
the same set of glasses,
you know, over at Hughie's.
And after, he just threw them
right into the dishwasher.
And I asked him, "Do you use
those for every day?"
And do you know
what he said to me?
"Every day is all we have."
Yep.
(EXHALES DEEPLY)
Powerful. Powerful stuff.
So, I mean, to me, you know...
today was today.
Here's to today.
CHARLIE: Today!
PETE: Yeah. Yeah.
Even so, I think that
you should report
to resort safety.
Oh.
Yes. If only to give you ease.
That's an excellent idea.
Yes, that's what I wanna do.
-Yeah.
-Right?
-Great. Great idea.
-Yeah.
(BELL DINGS)
(DOOR OPENS)
(DOOR CLOSES)
(SPEAKS GERMAN)
Ja?
-Yeah.
-Yeah. Guys.
So we wish
to make a complaint.
Yes?
Uh, that there was
an avalanche that we, um...
That caused alarm yesterday.
The controlled avalanche
from Zwlferkopf, yes.
Well, you say
it was controlled,
but I think
you need to know
that people
really freaked out.
But everyone was safe, yeah?
Well, we don't know that,
in fact.
I can tell you.
Everyone was safe.
Oh.
Well, that's great.
That is such good news.
'Cause that helps.
That helps to hear that.
Yeah, I gotta say just...
I don't understand
why there weren't
any warnings posted anywhere.
-There was a warning.
-What? Where?
Posted at lifts, gondolas,
hotel receptions,
restaurants, shops,
bars, soda machines, toilets.
Well, I don't know
what to tell you.
We didn't see any of that.
Well...
-Um...
-Is that not correct?
Maybe...
Gosh. I might have seen
something
that mentioned
snow conditions.
Yes. They were everywhere.
So you saw it?
There were a lot of...
I saw one sign.
There was...
-Hold on.
-(SCOFFS)
No, the point
I'm trying to make...
-What is your point?
-Here's the point.
What's your point?
Warning or no warning,
mmm-hmm,
seen it or not,
we would just like
some acknowledgment
that it was handled poorly.
It was handled perfectly.
No, it was not.
-Yes.
-No!
You cannot tell me
that that was the way
it was supposed to go.
-Yes, exactly like that.
-No!
Snow went all over the plates.
Snow went all over the plates.
Here's what I think
you're not picking up on.
This was a huge event
for our family, okay?
And, sir,
I don't wanna make this
a legal matter between us.
-I don't.
-PETE: Mmm. Billie.
-BILLIE: No, I don't wanna...
-I know, but...
BILLIE: What I'm saying
is what I don't want.
We're not in America
where you sue
because your coffee is hot,
madam.
Screw you. I'm an attorney.
PETE: Okay.
You've heard our complaint.
Yeah, well,
someone needs to hear it.
PETE: Thank you for your time.
And "no thank you for
your time" from me. (CHUCKLES)
That is for certain.
-I've got it, okay?
-Okay.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
What a jackass, huh?
Yeah.
Who's a jackass?
Oh, the man
who's supposedly in charge.
That's who.
Yeah, big jackass.
(EXPLOSIONS)
Uh...
Do you, um, have...
Yeah.
-Like that?
-You want to get it like that.
There you go.
ROSIE: How much do you love
traveling with me?
-ZACH: This much.
-(ROSIE GIGGLES)
FINN: (WHISPERS) Mom.
Mom.
What?
Oh, my God.
-Pete?
-Mmm.
What? Oh, okay.
-Oh, my God.
-Should I wake up Em?
Yes. Yes.
And let's not watch people
sleep. I don't like that.
PETE: We gotta go.
Where are we going?
Are we going
to a different mountain?
No, better.
It's gonna be great.
Yeah, it's a Daddy surprise.
Um, I think I should go in
and get something
from the buffet.
We are late though.
I'm starving.
No, I'm gonna get
a little fruit, okay?
PETE: No, you know,
we'll be fine.
EMERSON: Dad! Dad!
Car! Car! Car!
PETE: Can you pop the trunk,
please?
We're here. Sorry.
The Stantons?
-PETE: Yep. That's us.
-Hi.
They were just about to go.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
We overslept.
Come on, guys.
Let's go. Let's go.
Hey, we're heli-skiing, guys.
How cool is that, huh?
FINN: Awesome!
Yeah. A little Daddy treat.
Daddy thought of it.
I'm so hungry.
Once we get up
on the powder, bud,
you'll forget all about that.
Yeah, maybe they have
a protein bar or something.
Do you have a bar?
Ah, yes.
Yes, there is a seat belt.
What?
We really should climb on now.
Please.
Oh, is there gonna be
a briefing?
Yes, yes!
We can do that on the way!
Please, come!
Where's my glove?
You mean we're just gonna go?
Isn't there
any more information
that we need to have?
As in?
We'll get all that
when we get on board!
-Mom!
-What?
I can't find my glove!
Why are you so stupid?
Hey! Hey!
No.
Come here a second.
-Come here.
-(HELICOPTER WHIRRING)
Guys, what don't we do?
Call people names.
And so
what do you say now, Finn?
I'm sorry.
Good job, Finn.
Hang on, Pete.
No, not good job.
Look him in the eye right now
and say it loud and clear,
so he can hear you
and understand you.
FINN: I'm sorry!
-We should go!
-PETE: There we go!
Please! Please!
We really should depart!
The weather may change!
Okay. It's just that
he's missing a glove.
Wait a minute. What?
Change to what?
PETE: Let's go!
Every day is all we have!
I understand that, Pete,
but he doesn't have a glove.
We're missing a glove here,
and she just said something
about the weather changing.
They're gonna have
a spare glove! Yeah!
You have a spare?
I don't know! Come! Please!
They've gotta have
spare gloves!
She just said
she doesn't know!
Well, he can borrow yours!
What?
Then I'll get cold, Peter!
PETE: Okay, okay!
He can borrow mine!
It'll fly off!
It doesn't fit him!
PETE: Do you have
spare gloves?
(LOUDLY)
Do you have spare gloves?
Protein bars?
Billie, I spent two grand
on this, okay?
-I'm well aware of that, Pete!
-Okay, let's go!
Let's have a great time, okay?
Come on!
What? No!
Pete, stop!
Don't walk away from us!
We are missing gloves!
The children are starving!
And there's something
about the weather changing!
Get in the car!
(SIGHS)
FINN: Do you want help, Mom?
BILLIE: No, thank you!
FINN: Are you sure?
BILLIE: It's fine!
Get in the car!
In the car!
Here's your glove, sweetie.
Okay.
All right. Well, we still have
the rest of the afternoon.
What's everyone up for?
Beach?
(CHUCKLES)
If we gobble all this up,
we'll still have an hour,
hour and a half
up on the mountain.
I think we're gonna cut
our losses for today.
Just hunker down
this afternoon.
We could sit around the fire
and make popcorn.
And then maybe later,
you boys can watch a movie,
and you and I
can have some time.
I love that idea.
BILLIE: Me too.
-Yeah. I think that's smart.
-Yeah.
-(CUTLERY CLATTERS)
-Fruit.
Guys, put fruit
in yourselves, please.
I could do something
but I feel really bad for Mom.
All right, I'm sorry.
Oh, don't you love me?
You're telling me
that they just showed up?
No. They were nearby
and actually called.
They just happened to call?
Billie, yes, they called.
When?
When did they call actually?
-When?
-Yeah. When?
When I was in the bathroom.
You know Zach.
No. No. Actually I don't.
I don't know Zach, Pete.
Not well.
Not like the way you know
your work buddy. Right?
And I certainly don't know
the woman.
I'm sorry, okay? I didn't know
how to play the phone call.
Shh!
-Can we help?
-Hey.
-Oh, no. Stay seated.
-No. We're good.
Yeah, you guys just relax.
I hope they like carrot sticks
and Goldfish.
I'm sorry, I should've...
Yeah, well, but now you can't.
-(LAUGHING) Oh. Okay. Hey.
-Hey.
Ugh, that looks so good.
It does?
PETE: All right.
So, you guys,
let's hear about this trip.
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Well, I mean,
from what we remember...
it's been epic.
From what I've seen, yeah.
It's been intense.
We've hit, what, like,
three countries in four days.
Just Tuesday, we were having
morning strudel in Dsseldorf
and by that afternoon,
we were hiking along
the Rhine River in France.
Oh, my gosh. Wow.
And, um, there might have been
some shrooms
-on one or all of those days.
-(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Does that sound weird
when I say it?
ROSIE: No.
I loved the way you said it.
ZACH: "Shrooms"?
Do I sound like a narc?
ROSIE: Shroomies.
ZACH: Shrooms.
-ROSIE: Shrooms. Just shrooms.
-Shrooms. We did shrooms.
So you did shrooms?
-Yes. We did shrooms.
-Yeah, we did.
Okay, got it.
ZACH: I don't know, I think
the whole point of this trip
was me just stepping
out of my comfort zone
and following Rosie's lead,
and so that's what
I've been doing,
and I've just been
relinquishing all of this...
ROSIE: Not relinquishing.
Expanding.
ZACH: Expanding.
ROSIE: Yeah.
ZACH: Yeah, sorry.
Um, I've been expanding.
ROSIE: His world.
It's a positive thing.
-PETE: Okay.
-Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, you know
how blind people,
all their other senses
get more intense?
-PETE: Right.
-Yeah.
Being with Rosie is like that.
But I didn't even
have to go blind.
ROSIE: Babe.
-ZACH: Seriously.
-Oh.
I call her Rosie the Riveting.
-(BOTH CHUCKLE)
-ROSIE: He does.
And it's so good for me,
'cause you know me, Pete.
Yeah, I do.
I mean, normally
I'm all about hotels and...
-Right?
-ROSIE: Yeah.
ZACH: Room service,
crisp sheets.
PETE: Right, right, right.
You know,
at breakfast I'm thinking,
"Okay, well, where are we
gonna have dinner?"
And then, before I go to bed,
I'm thinking,
"Well, tomorrow we should get
breakfast at that same place
"because they have
that one thing that I like."
ROSIE: We're experimenting
with new.
ZACH: Thank you.
It's a really good place
for him to live.
You have to live there.
Hey, I know I'm not leaving.
(CHUCKLES)
ROSIE: Yeah, we just found
in each other this desire
to share our lives
in a certain way.
So it's about travel,
adventure.
We don't see ourselves
having kids,
so it's about us
living for us.
Hashtag no agenda.
-I mean, we love that.
-ROSIE: Aw.
That's all Rosie.
She nails the hashtags.
-ROSIE: Thanks.
-Oh, you're the one.
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
And, I mean, no agenda's
what got us here tonight,
right?
I mean, we didn't know
what tonight was gonna be,
and then you texted
and here we are.
ROSIE: Yeah, we don't even
have return tickets.
Like, who knows what's next?
(CHUCKLES)
Well, you kinda know
what's next, don't you?
'Cause you have work
on Monday.
Correct?
Oh. Yeah, no,
I mean, for sure.
Oh, no, yeah.
We'll get tickets home.
I have to show
a commercial space
-in Cambridge at 8:30, so...
-Mmm-hmm.
ZACH: Yeah.
So what about you guys?
You guys getting
in good ski days?
Yeah. Yeah, good. Yeah.
ZACH: Cool.
Um, I mean,
we did have a moment
that was (CLEARS THROAT)
a little unnerving.
But we got over it
and we've been having
a great time.
(SCOFFS) God.
Oh.
Okay, what happened?
It was just an event
that we got through.
-ZACH: Yeah. That's it.
-That was all.
ZACH: It's good
to come through events.
PETE: Exactly.
No, we're good now.
Yeah, it was nothing.
It wasn't nothing.
No. Okay. Yeah. Okay.
That's the wrong word.
At all.
I mean, it was something.
Yeah.
(SCOFFS) We were sitting
outside at a restaurant,
and there was this huge bang.
And suddenly,
this wall of snow
comes rumbling down
the mountain,
and it did not look
like it was gonna stop.
It looked like
it was gonna kill us.
For a moment.
No! No! Absolutely not.
Because other people
felt exactly the same way.
They were getting up.
They were screaming.
I screamed.
And the kids were screaming.
Because it felt
like this was it.
That we were gonna die.
Um...
And I look over at Pete...
and he had jumped up
and grabbed his phone.
He was gone.
Pete ran. Pete left us.
(VOICE BREAKING)
I guess in his mind, um...
he left us there
to get buried...
because, um,
he could make it away,
and we were too far away.
You know, we were on
the other side of the, uh...
I don't know.
Anyway, so I throw my arms
around my children...
and just wait, you know?
I just wait for us
to die together.
(SNIFFLES) Sorry.
Anyway, so then, um,
moments pass...
and oh, my God,
I'm still there.
And the kids stop screaming.
And we're okay, we realize.
We're okay.
And then Pete comes back...
and just orders soup.
So...
That's intense.
Yeah.
But, you know, I think...
You know, I think
in a situation like that...
I think it's probably
a survival reaction
that kicks in.
Right, Pete?
You don't even have time
to think. It's a reflex.
It's like when a sea cucumber
perceives a threat,
it rapidly evacuates all of
its organs through its rectum.
How could I have possibly
run away?
-What?
-In ski boots?
How is that possible?
Can you run in ski boots?
Wait, what?
Zach, can you run
in ski boots?
-It's not recommended.
-BILLIE: Oh, fine.
Clomp away.
Walk briskly away. I mean...
No. You said "run."
Rosie,
can you run in ski boots?
Not very well, but...
Boom. Exactly.
ROSIE: Regardless, I wouldn't
leave my family to die.
That's "boom, exactly."
No, no, nor would I.
And I didn't.
It's just she said you did.
BILLIE: Yeah, because he did.
For fuck's sakes, Billie.
Why are you...
And I didn't leave you
to be buried.
-I don't know.
-Well, I do.
I was there
and I saw it differently.
So then tell me, Pete.
What happened differently?
Please.
-The snow was coming.
-Right.
Almost like an avalanche.
Oh, now it's not even
an avalanche.
PETE: I checked
on you guys visually,
and when I made sure
that everyone was okay,
I ran to get help.
Hang on a second.
That doesn't even make sense!
You knew that we were okay,
so you went to get help?
What?
It happened very fast.
It was very confusing.
Right. Survival reaction.
PETE: But I checked to
make sure you guys were okay
and then I went to get help.
That's not what happened,
Peter.
Billie, I can accept
your version of the truth.
Why can't you accept mine?
Because mine is true
and not dumb.
-You weren't there with me!
-Right!
That's exactly right. I was at
the table with our children.
I just love
that you're making me say
that what happened for you
happened for me.
BILLIE: Okay.
(DOOR OPENS)
I mean, Pete,
like a lot of times,
the people involved
in automobile accidents
get the events of the accident
completely wrong.
-Stop pitching theories, Zach.
-Yeah, sorry.
Fuck.
BILLIE: Just come on out here
for a sec. Um...
Sorry.
We just have one question.
Billie, no.
-Yeah, yeah.
-PETE: No.
You can say... I was talking
with our friends
about, uh, when we were
having lunch, remember?
And then the avalanche
was coming...
and, um, can you say
what happened next?
They can say.
It's for the story
and, um, they wanted to know.
They can say, right, Pete?
Sure.
The truth.
Um...
Dad ran away.
BILLIE: And Finn?
Is that what you think
happened, too?
-Mmm-hmm.
-Okay.
Okay, guys. Thanks.
You can go back
to your funny movie.
They're such great kids.
You might have traumatized
them, you know that?
Oh, I traumatized them?
You care so much about
being right, don't you?
No, I just wanna get
this straight.
No, you just
want to get it right.
So, congratulations, Billie,
you win. You're right.
Everyone give Billie
a fucking round of applause.
BILLIE: Hey, Pete?
You left your family!
That I am right about!
(DOOR CLOSES)
(MEN SPEAKING IN GERMAN ON TV)
(RADIO PLAYING IN GERMAN)
(TURNS OFF)
Hey. Uh, I'm gonna take
a solo day today.
Oh. Okay.
So you and the boys
can have an adventure.
Yeah, fine.
Maybe we'll cross paths
on the mountain.
Actually, I saw a leaflet
for one of those
Alpine rail slides.
The boys might really
enjoy that.
It's at the family resort...
the one that's just minutes
of 20 from here.
Great.
-Sure.
-Great.
(DOOR CLOSES)
-(CLICKS)
-Oh.
CHARLOTTE: Getting an eyeful?
Oh.
(CHUCKLES) Hello.
No, no, no. I was just...
And where is your team?
Oh, I'm taking
a solo day today.
Good.
Adventure.
Just for you.
Yeah. Adventure.
Fun. Just for you.
Yeah. Fun.
You want fun?
Yeah.
Fun.
Good.
-Oh!
-Come.
BILLIE: Oh, I think that
this is the line right here.
No, no,
this wait is not for you.
Oh. (CHUCKLES)
Sorry.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay. Oh, great.
Well, once again,
thank you so much
for your help.
Adventure, yes?
Now? Fun?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All of it. Right.
(CHARLOTTE SPEAKS ITALIAN)
Oh, you're coming?
-CHARLOTTE: Yeah. I come with.
-Ah.
Wonderful. Yeah.
So, I am interested
on another question.
Oh, good. Okay.
Have you had varied life
of sexual experience?
What? I'm sorry?
Have you had a varied life
of sexual experience?
No, no, no. I'm not asking you
so that you would repeat that.
We're in a public space.
I'm just saying.
At that age, they rarely
bother with the English.
Boy, you really get
right in there, don't you?
I'm sorry. I just don't like
so much bullshit all the time.
Yeah, I get that.
I'm not a fan of the bullshit
myself either.
-You just seem to me like...
-Like what?
You haven't been
all the blocks around.
-Me?
-Yeah.
Oh, no, no, no.
You'd be surprised actually.
In college,
I had, um, so many boyfriends.
I mean, I really knew
my way around.
I mean,
I did my fair share of...
(LAUGHTER)
I don't like to perform that.
(SCOFFS) Nobody likes it.
I just tend to do
only what I like.
-Mmm.
-I masturbate.
Every day.
Because that is for me.
And having sex with guests...
Yes, that is very for me.
But you're married.
Is that right?
-Are you? Is that the case?
-Yeah. Yeah.
Okay. So how does that work
with everything?
With your Mr. Charlie
and whatever
other fellow you happen...
Easy.
I spend the winters here,
and in the summer, my husband
and I have the farm.
And your husband
is cool with that?
No, my husband, my husband.
-What?
-Can we shake hands?
Now, should I tell my husband
about this? Should you?
What are you talking about?
Our bodies touched.
We have a little intimacy.
Oh, please.
Well, why?
Why is there this absurdity?
When these two parts of our
bodies touch, no big deal.
Because it's very...
But the other parts, oh, no.
No.
The bodies touch,
the special parts.
-Well, yes, they're special.
-Oh, my goodness.
What shall we do? The god
is angry in the heaven,
-so the marriage must be over.
-Well, no, not that.
The special parts have rubbed.
It's superstition.
It isn't, actually.
I mean, for instance,
shaking hands
doesn't make babies, does it?
-Oh, please.
-Well.
Sex doesn't need
to make babies.
No, I know that.
And you don't need sex
to make the babies, yeah?
Of course not, but...
So, can we all just move on
now, please?
But what I mean is,
is that in a relationship,
it seems to me you need to be
on the same page, right?
I mean, it's like a story,
and you both have to be
in the same story.
Well, I guess
I make my own story.
Of course, yeah. But...
I'm happy.
Are you happy?
Yeah.
Good.
Yeah.
Then you're happy
with your story,
and I'm happy with mine.
-Okay.
-Yes?
-Mmm-hmm.
-Yes?
Yes. I said, "Yes."
I said, "Yes." Yes, yes, yes.
-Good.
-Yeah.
I'm a little sore.
Mr. Charlie is an animal.
-(CHUCKLES)
-Good, we're here.
I can't sit. (CHUCKLES)
And now, Guglielmo will be
your instructor.
Wait. What?
Who will be my what?
Bye-bye. Have fun.
(SPEAKING ITALIAN)
You ready?
Uh... I don't know.
This way.
This place is awesome.
Yeah.
Why aren't we staying here?
Yeah. It's fine.
I mean, it's different.
I don't know if it's better.
Just different.
(GASPS) Finn! Here it is!
FINN: Let's go.
So.
So. Yeah.
The first thing
of instruction is?
I honestly have no idea.
I don't...
Coffee. (SPEAKS ITALIAN)
BILLIE: Oh. Okay.
GUGLIELMO: (LAUGHS)
Buongiorno.
BILLIE: Buongiorno to you.
So, listen, actually Charlotte
said your name very quickly.
-I didn't quite...
-Guglielmo.
It's very simple.
"Gu" like Google, "gli" like
we, "elmo" like helmet.
Um, I...
You can call me G.
-G.
-Yes.
G.
Just to be clear,
I didn't sign up
-for an instructor today.
-Uh-huh.
'Cause I was gonna just take
-a solo day.
-Uh-huh.
Um, 'cause I'm
a pretty decent skier.
And why stop at decent?
No, I mean...
There is
better than decent, no?
Yes, of course, there's better
than decent, yeah.
Okay. So, you see this coffee?
I do.
It's decent. Yeah.
-Uh-huh.
-Boring. Okay?
Oh, hold it?
Yes. But...
Yeah. A-ha!
-Alpine coffee.
-(LAUGHS)
Better.
Yeah, that's better
than decent, I suppose.
Yeah.
Okay. Wow.
Way better than decent.
(BOTH SPEAKING ITALIAN)
Mmm.
So, thank you
for the better than decent.
GUGLIELMO: You're welcome.
I appreciate it.
I'm gonna take off.
Okay.
Wait, wait, wait. Billie.
I'm gonna tell you what, okay?
Yeah.
So, we will ski together
a little bit,
and then after that
if you want to be solo,
you be solo.
(CHUCKLES) Okay.
Good, G.
Yes. Give me five.
Yes.
(SHOUTS)
PETE: Finn, buddy,
ease up on your brakes!
It's no fun if you go slow!
FINN: You're too close!
PETE: Buddy, come on!
Your brother's way ahead!
(CAMERA CLICKS)
PETE: I warned you.
Here I come!
FINN: Dad, stop!
(WHOOPING)
I'm coming for ya!
I'm gonna tap you, okay?
-No. Don't!
-What?
Don't!
Gonna get you, Finn!
I'm gonna get you, bro!
-FINN: Don't!
-Dad's on your tail, bro!
-Don't!
-(CAMERA CLICKS)
WOMAN: We post rules.
You cannot bump.
No, I'm sorry.
I know,
but I barely tapped him.
Let's see,
they have a toboggan run.
Arcade.
Uh, indoor miniature golf.
Lot of good stuff.
Any of that sound good?
I don't care.
What's up?
Doesn't seem like
you wanna be here.
Of course I do.
I love spending time with you
more than anything.
Right?
Is it about the slide?
Okay, so Daddy got
kicked off the slide, yes.
Because Daddy was having
too much fun.
Okay, you know what?
Let's just try to end this day
on a high note, all right?
And you guys go ahead
and pick something right here.
Go ahead. We can do
multiple things if you want.
Can we just have screen time
back at our hotel?
Sure.
I like that, yeah.
GUGLIELMO: Yes!
-(BILLIE WHOOPING)
-Good!
BILLIE: (WHOOPING) Whoa.
How about that?
That's a lot of work, huh?
GUGLIELMO: But good, yes?
BILLIE: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
So, how do your calves feel?
Well, I can feel them
all right.
-Yeah?
-Oh, yeah.
Good.
Maybe you want to, yeah,
take them out.
Yeah, I think so.
For, like, 10 minutes
or something.
Yeah, my right boot
in particular
is driving me crazy.
They can burn here, no?
Yes.
You know, sometimes
I can give people...
on the calves or something,
like a rub, you know?
(SPEAKS ITALIAN)
Oh. Sometimes you can do that,
can you? (SCOFFS)
Yeah. That's something I do.
Oh, you do?
Yeah. Just to, you know,
relax out those tight muscles.
It's recommended.
Oh, really?
Well, if it's recommended,
yeah.
-Sure.
-Let me.
Yeah.
Sorry, I'm a little sweaty.
It's okay.
You have nice feet.
Oh.
(BOTH SPEAKING ITALIAN)
So...
I'm curious.
Yeah?
Who is Billie?
(CHUCKLES)
What?
Why is that silly?
I want to know.
(HESITATES)
Um...
It sounds sort of like a...
Well, "who"?
How do you even answer?
I am very confident,
but I'm not afraid to admit
when I'm wrong.
I tend to fall in love
too fast. Heal too slow.
And I love to paint.
And actually,
I'm very good at it.
However, I cannot sing,
but that does not stop me
from doing it every day.
Skiing is a passion,
but, you know,
just teaching feeds my soul.
To witness
people surprise themselves,
that's what I live for.
And, uh, I am the only child
of a single mom...
and she is my hero.
Oh, that's lovely.
That's how I answer.
You know...
you don't have to share
with me who you are, Billie.
But you must promise me.
What?
Promise me you're not
gonna find it silly
if someone wants to
make it about you.
I promise that.
Okay. Um... (CLEARS THROAT)
Thank you very much.
I'm sorry. Scusami.
I apologize if I...
Do not apologize.
I did exactly
what I wanted to do.
Yeah. And now
I, uh, wanna ski.
Yeah.
-Yeah. Yeah.
-Okay.
Okay.
But just to be clear,
I could fuck you
right through that wall
right now if I wanted.
But I won't. And I wouldn't.
That much I know about me.
In answer
to your earlier question.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Oh, my God.
(BREATHING DEEPLY)
(GASPS, GROANS)
Oh.
Okay.
Ah. There are my gloves.
(CLEARS THROAT)
How was your solo day?
It was great. Yeah.
Awesome.
Me and the boys had fun.
Good.
Yeah, we spent a good while
on the slide.
Great.

Morning.
EMERSON: Morning, Dad.
FINN: Morning.
Hey.
Everybody sleep okay?
FINN: Mmm-hmm. Yeah.
BILLIE: Mmm-hmm.
Are we, um...
Um, we're just...
We're gonna just do this
for now.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
Yeah, Zach had texted
about joining us.
I think
Rosie's sleeping in, so...
BILLIE: Oh. Great.
Okay. Well, you guys have fun.
Should we meet up for dinner?
Maybe a place in town?
Sure.
So I'll text you.
BILLIE: Okay.
Cool.
All right.
All right, guys. Have fun.
-Okay. We will.
-You too.

Yeah!

how great is this?
Oh, my God! Look at this.
It's like one of those
screensavers.
We're in a stock image
right now.
There's only one thing I have
to worry about right now.
Okay.
Only one obligation.
And that's going down.
-That's it.
-Yeah.
-Just live your best life.
-That's it.
Yeah.

-Fuck yeah, man.
-Right?

(BOTH GRUNTING)

Do I seem okay to you?
ZACH: Yeah. I think.
You don't think
I have a concussion?
No, I don't think so,
because you didn't puke
or anything.
No, no, no.
No, I haven't felt nauseous.
Have I been repeating myself?
I don't know.
I mean, like, you've asked me
a few times if you seem okay.
-But that's it?
-Yeah.
Hi. Hi.
-Hello. Hi.
-Hi. Hi.
Yeah. Uh...
My friend
just wanted to say hi.
-Ooh.
-Oh.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
She likes
the way you carry yourself.
-That's very kind.
-Yeah.
Yeah, where, uh...
Oh, yeah. That's nice.

She thinks you are the
best-groomed man in this bar.
Well, thank you.
Yeah.
Uh... Okay.
-That's okay, right?

Check you out.
What do we...
I mean,
do we send a drink over?
Should we go,
just talk to them?

with Rosie...
No. No, no. Right.

above my weight there,
and I don't want
to mess that up.

no, you got a good thing.
-Yeah. Totally.
-Yeah.
She's, like, changed my life
and I love...
-(WOMEN LAUGHING)
-Yeah, that's good to hear.
I love it.
ZACH: I mean, you know,
the whole
moving to Europe thing...
I don't know if I'd really
want to be that far
-from my family...
-Mmm-hmm.
...and she's pretty adamant
about not wanting kids,
but me...
Right.
I don't know.
But for now, yeah.
Yeah, we're good.
Wow.
Man, I did not hate that.
Oh. Yeah.
It's been a while.
I used to be good
at flirting, too.
Really?
I mean, really good.
Well, you have that energy.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
-Still?
-You do.
-Hi.
-Hello again.
-Sorry.
-Hello. Hi.
It wasn't you.
What's that?
It wasn't you.
She didn't like the way
you carried yourself.
-Oh.
-It was him.
The green man.
(LAUGHS)
-PETE: Yeah.
-Sorry.
Hey, so what's your name?
Bye.
Yeah, she's right.
That guy is a catch.
Yeah, can I be honest
with you, Pete?
I do see a resemblance.
-No.
-Yes.
Come on. No, it's okay.
Honestly. I'm good.
I'm so good.
So much so.
(EXHALES)
ZACH: So, do you feel
like skiing more?
PETE: No.
Let's just keep drinking.
Billie?
Yes?
Hey!
Oh, hi, guys.
-Hi.
-You going up?
Um, yeah. We... Yes.
Do you mind if I...?
Oh, sure, yeah.
Join us. Absolutely.
-Mom.
-Yes?
Can we go up by ourselves?
-Sure, yeah, if you want to.
-Yeah, let's do that. Yes!
But can you wait for me
at the top? Okay?
-Yeah, we will.
-Okay.
BILLIE: Look at this.
ROSIE: Yeah. Stunning.
BILLIE: The sun
is really poking out now.
ROSIE: Mmm-hmm.
So, how you doing today?
Um...
I'm better, I guess.
Well, I don't know.
I am so sorry
that you guys were there for
all of that the other night.
I know that we just met.
Why are you apologizing?
(LAUGHS)
Well, I shouldn't have
involved the kids like that.
That was not wise.
Okay, fine, but you have
nothing to apologize about.
What he did was fucked up.
Yeah, but... (CLEARS THROAT)
I probably shouldn't have
attacked him like that.
He's grieving right now.
A lot. 'Cause his dad died
about eight months ago.
People die. It happens.
It sucks.
But that doesn't excuse
why he ran away
like a fucking pussy.
You don't owe him anything.
You have a right to be angry.
(BREATHES DEEPLY)
Thank you.
I'll tell you this much.
If Zach ever did that to me,
I would kick him in the nuts
and he would never
see me again.
-(LAUGHS)
-It's black and white.
Well...
I'm not sure.
No, it is.
It's black and white.
(SNIFFS)
How old are you?
-Thirty.
-Oh.
-(DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)
-(PEOPLE SHOUTING EXCITEDLY)
-We're home.
-Yeah.
(MUSIC CONTINUES)
Mmm. Mmm-mmm.
Hey, green guy.
(GRUNTS)
I got it. Got it.
Jerk.
-Hey.
-Hey.
You all right?
You gotta get some air.
This place is dead.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Okay.
We should get you out of here.
It's almost 7:00.
Whoa. Okay. Hey.
Okay.
-I think it's time for pizza.
-No.
-Or coffee or something.
-No.
No. I gotta stay hungry
for dinner with my family.
So...
Yeah.
I just think
before you see your family,
it might be a good idea
to get some food.
I love my family.
-(LAUGHING) Yeah, I know.
-Okay?
-I know.
-I do.
I know.
Billie and I didn't even
think of doing it
for the longest time.
Kids.
So we did the fertility thing.
And then we just said,
you know,
if science wants us
to be parents,
then we'll be parents.
If not, that's okay.
And science made us parents.
Yeah, I mean,
you got a beautiful family.
You lose a parent
and the ticking gets louder.
I mean, you really wanna know
how old you are?
Look at your kids. (SCOFFS)
Every day they change.
I mean, yeah, we get older.
But you can't forget
about you.
It happens.
You think about yourself.
Yeah, I know.
Hey, Pete.
Come here.
Pete...
we're gonna get you coffee.
I know. That's what I said.
Right?
-Yeah.
-Come on.
-I got you.
-(PETE GRUNTS)
Yum.
Yours?
I'm not that hungry.
Okay. Did you already eat?
'Cause I didn't eat
to stay hungry.
So I'm hungry.
All right.
Mom, keycard. Keycard.
Thanks.
Billie? Billie, stop.
Can I just say something?
Please?
-Well, I...
-Can I?
Pete, honestly,
it's not a good idea.
No, I just...
It's really not a good idea
to do this right now.
Please. Let me just...
Billie, just listen to me.
(SIGHS) What happened...
is what you said happened.
I ran.
I didn't know
how to make sense of it.
I didn't want to.
It's not like I didn't see it.
I keep seeing it, Billie.
I see it now.
How you look at me.
And how our sons look at me.
I hate it.
I was just afraid
that if I said it out loud,
then it would be true.
I'm just a selfish coward.
Capable of...
This is what you say
four days ago, Pete.
Instead, you made me feel
like a complete idiot.
Like it was my fault.
I can't stop
an avalanche, Billie.
No one is asking you
to stop an avalanche.
What are you even
talking about?
I just want you to want to
survive one with us, Pete.
Morning.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Morning.
Morning.
BILLIE: Morning.
Looks like we got hit
with a big dump of snow.
Should we, uh, head to the top
of the mountain?
For a final run?
Tackle the Beast?
Yeah, sure.
Does that sound good?
Tackle the Beast?
BILLIE: Sure.
Unless I decide to go
to Switzerland.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
I hate skiing.
-No, he doesn't.
-Finn.
You're not in my body.
It's cold and dumb.
You're always wet
and it hurts when you fall.
It takes forever if you have
to go to the bathroom.
People are just stupid.
They don't look
where they're going,
so you're always scared
you're gonna die.
And I have to go
to the bathroom.
-(EXPLOSION)
-Oh.
Hey, hey.
It's okay, you guys.
It's okay. You're fine.
I'm here.
You know,
I think I'm all skied out.
I say we call it.
Get some hot cocoa?
-Warm up? Yeah?
-EMERSON: Yeah.
PETE: Honey,
why don't you go ahead?
We'll wait for you,
down at the bottom.
Come on, guys.
(MAN WHOOPING)
Where is she?
BILLIE: Pete!
Pete!
Peter!
Stay here.
Dad!
Just stay right here.
BILLIE: Peter!
Peter!
(MAN SHOUTING IN GERMAN)
(PANTING)
(PEOPLE SHOUTING)
(PANTING)
Hey.
You okay?
This is for our boys.
For how they see you.
But as far as you and I
are concerned,
if you don't like the way
that I look at you,
then show me
something different.
You show me someone
who really wants to be here.
But I do.
No, I mean
through it all, Pete.
Because if you can't...
then you can just go down
the mountain by yourself.
No, I'm here.
For all of it.
Now rescue me.
What happened, Mom?
Yeah, are you okay?
Yeah. I'm fine.
She's good.
Oh.
I forgot my skis.
Oh.
Okay, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Okay.
-BILLIE: Please, guys, slow.
-(BOYS SHOUTING)
PETE: Watch it!
Hey!
(SPEAKING ITALIAN)
Until we meet
in a different lifetime.
-Is he talking to you?
-Mmm.
Yeah,
that's, um, my ski instructor.
Oh, I didn't know
you took a ski lesson.
Yeah, I told you that.
You did?
Wait, what?
Hashtag we refuse to leave.
-Hi!
-Oh, hey!
Hashtag not leaving.
God.
-I am getting so sick of that.
-I don't know why that's fun.
BILLIE: Oh, you guys.
PETE: Hey.
-Safe travels.
-PETE: All right. You too.
Really nice to meet you.
