[rhythmic drumming]
[Molly] What if I hate it?
What if you love it?
What if no one talks to me?
I really don't think
that's gonna happen.
[Molly] Did you go to camp?
-Yeah.
-[Molly] Did you love it?
I knew it!
Well, you're braver than I am.
How 'bout this.
You wanna make a deal?
-[Molly] Fine.
-Okay. Here's the deal.
You try it out
for a couple of days,
you go swimming,
you do the ropes course,
see if you can make
some friends,
and if you really hate it,
like, really,
really, really hate it,
I'll come get you.
-Promise?
-Yes.
-I promise.
-Fine.
-All right?
-Eh...
I think you're gonna like it.
[Jane] Look at your cabin!
Hi, how are you?
-This is Molly.
-[Molly] Hi.
Hi.
Oh, my God, this is so sweet.
Oh, you're gonna have
the best time.
Okay, honey, gimme a big hug,
big squeeze, big squeeze.
I love you.
[Molly] I love you so much too.
[Jane] There you go.
Thank you. Bye, honey!
-[Molly] Bye!
-[Jane] Bye.

[door clicks open]
[door shuts closed]
[seatbelt clicks]
[birds chirping]
[calm music playing]
[cellphone beeps]
Where's the closest place
to get a cup of coffee
around here?
[phone rings]
Oh.
-[cellphone beeps]
-Hey, Mom.
[Jane's mother] Jane, honey,
I got something important
to tell you.
-Okay.
-[Jane's mother] Okay, well,
before you were born
your father and I
were running
pretty low on funds--
[call waiting beeping]
[Jane's mother]
So we decided to--
Oh, Mom, sorry, I got another
person calling me, hold on.
-[cellphone beeps]
-Hello?
[Kai] Hi, this is Kai
from Iwataki Spa
confirming your massage
appointment today at noon.
Yes. Yep.
I am on my way.
[Kai] Great,
we'll see you then, Jane.
Okay, thank you.
What was I doing?
Oh, yes, coffee.
[calm music playing]
[bell chiming]
Hello?
[meowing]
Hello, is anybody in here?
[thump]
[meowing]
[TV show playing
in the background]
Hello?
Is anybody in here?
[pan clattering]
[bell dings]
Screw it.
[pours coffee]
[blows]
[clears throat]
[customer] I'll take
a cup of that coffee
and a slice of pie
when you have a chance, Jane.
-[meowing]
-[dinging]
[chuckles] I'm sorry,
I don't work here, I'm--
[boss] There she is.
How'd the delivery go?
Delivery? What?
Where is your apron, Jane?
I'm sorry, what?
Here, put this on.
[laughing]
[dinging]
[laughing continues]
Wh-- what am I doing?
[all] Jane. Jane.
[slurping]
[Jane] Sorry. Sorry.
[doorbell dinging]
As I live and breathe.
If it isn't Jane.
[TV show continues]
Tell me where it is.
Where's what?
All right. That's it.
I've had enough.
Tie her up
and put her in the boot.
Time to go see you-know-who.
[doorbell dinging]
Wait a second.
Who are you?
I'm Jane, who are you?
Okay, yes,
this all makes sense now.
This is the Jane who works here
and this is the Jane
that you're looking for.
No, I am not.
[Jane gasps]
Yes, you are.
No, I'm not.
Yes, you are.
-[smacking]
-[Jane grunts]
[grunting, yelling]
[customers laughing]
[glass shatters]
[Jane screams]
[gunshot popping]
That's enough.
Get up.
Both of you.
Now, which one of you is
the Jane that I'm looking for?
All right then.
Only one way to settle this.
Call it.
-Heads.
-Tails.
Okay, then.
Heads and you get to go free,
but she's coming with me.
Tails and you get to go free...
but she's coming with me.
[tense music playing]
[tires screeching]
[calm music playing]
[waves crashing]
[Jane] Did we know
each other then?
All you said was true...
and still...
you left without looking back.
If we could
speak to them now...
what would they say?
Oliver!
[phone ringing]
Hey, Oliver. Hi.
[Oliver]
Let me guess. You're lost.
No, not this time.
I just stopped
to grab a few things, so...
[Oliver] You're good.
Just pull up by the shore.
I'm right here.
All right,
I'll see you soon. [chuckles]
-I can't wait.
-[call ended beeping]
Okay.
[rhythmic drumming]
[young Jane]
I love you so much.
[young Oliver] I love you too.
[young Jane]
Your eyes are so beautiful.
I can't wait for you
to meet my family.
[Oliver] Jane!
Jane! Jane!
[Jane gasps]
-Oh, wow.
-Yo.
-[Jane] Hi.
-Wow.
[Jane chuckles] Hi.
-Oh, my God.
-Look at you.
-[Jane] Wow.
-Oh, my gosh.
Hey.
Oh, man. I'll hug you.
Okay. [Jane laughs]
[Oliver] It's really nice
to see you.
[Jane] Sorry.
[Jane sighs]
I mean, you look-- in...
When was the last time...
Oh, it was here.
Well, I mean, it was near here.
-That was here?
-Yeah.
Remember, we had
that little spot by the rocks?
I thought that's why
you wanted to meet here.
Oh! No, no, no.
We're not going up there.
I got a show
down on the shore tonight.
Oh, wow.
[Oliver] Is that all right?
Uh, you, um-- Yeah, of course.
-It's fine. Yeah.
-Okay.
Wow. Jane.
I can't even believe
you're here.
[Jane chuckles]
So wait. You're playing music?
Are-- You're--
D-- drums or wh-?
[Oliver] No, I lead the band.
-It's my music.
-[Jane] What?
[indistinct]
[Oliver] Yeah, I drum a little,
I did when I was younger,
but fell off
when we were together.
Picked it back up with
these folks a few years back
and still going with it.
[Jane] Hi, nice to meet you.
I'm Jane.
[Oliver] An old friend
from way back.
I'm-- Hi. Hi!
Oh, sorry. [laughs]
Hi, it's a pleasure
to meet you.
-How are you? Hi.
-[Oliver] Some guys back here--
[Jane] Hi.
Pleasure to meet you.
Hi. Good day.
Hi. Lovely to meet you as well.
-Hello.
-[Oliver] And--
Pleasure. Pleasure. Hi. Hi!
So nice to meet you.
[Jane] We've known each other
for, like, ten years, but I--
[band member] Yeah, he's
never said your name before.
[Jane laughs] Well, I mean,
we haven't seen each other--
Okay, you guys,
we need to rehearse.
[Jane] Nice to meet you all.
They call you Tayo now?
[Oliver] Yeah.
I mean, that's my name.
Oliver was something
my parents came up with
when they came here.
Yeah. It's the band.
Um, well,
I brought a blanket, so.
Oh. Okay.
I-- I mean I don't--
I can go somewhere else.
[Oliver] No, no, no, it's fine.
Yeah, it's--
let me help you with that.
Okay. Oh, I can do it.
-It's--
-[Jane] Oh, okay.
-I got it. Yeah.
-Thank you.
That's nice of you.
[both] All right.
Are you sure I'm okay to stay?
Of course, why not?
I-- I mean, this is your space
and I really don't wanna--
Look, it-- it's all good.
Tayo.
You're cool.
We're just gonna run through
our routines for later.
It's all good.
-Okay?
-Okay.
-[Oliver laughs] Okay.
-Okay.
All right. [sighs]
[upbeat disco music playing]
[young Jane]
I love you so much.
[young Oliver] I love you too.
[young Jane] Do you wanna
go on a road trip?
You and me
and two or three kids?
I can't wait for you
to meet my family.
[music continues]
Come on!
[waves splashing]
Oliver!
Ol-- Oliver,
my whole family is coming.
We have dinner.
What-- you--
you don't wanna go back?
I-- I don't wanna talk
about this right now.
Let's just-- like...
Honey, where are you gonna go?
-[Oliver] Yeah, I got it.
-[Chioma] Oh, my God!
[Oliver] Whoa!
[indistinct chatter]
[Chioma] I wanna make a toast.
To love, life,
and a great show.
-[cheering]
-[glass clinking]
[laughs]
[indistinct]
[Chioma] Thank you.
[Oliver] By the way, chin-chin.
-Here you go.
-Oh, my gosh, thank you.
That was so beautiful.
That was nothing.
Just warming up.
[Chioma] I mean,
look at you, though.
This is my favorite part
of the meal.
That's the best one.
[dancer] What are
we doing tonight?
[speaking indistinctly]
[laughing]
Thank you.
[indistinct chatter]
[Chioma] Pass 'em, pass 'em.
[Oliver] Hey.
[sighs] Get over here.
What'd you think?
I mean,
my heart's still racing.
All the years I knew you, I--
I never saw you move like that.
Wh-- what do you mean?
I-- I danced.
So now you remember?
'Cause earlier it was like,
"Oh, I have a show
on the beach,
I don't remember
anything about,
you know, those rocks or..."
So now you remember?
Of course I remember.
I-- You're right, I...
I didn't move like that.
[fire crackling]
Almost a decade ago, hm?
So...
what do you remember
about that day?
Sorry.
I'm sorry, I did not come here
to put you on the spot.
So why did you?
You get stuck.
Or you feel like it.
And I think...
the first place you wanna go
is where you
didn't feel so stuck.
And, honestly,
I just wanted to see you.
And where you went to.
Um...
How're your parents?
Man, I don't know.
Honestly, they're the same,
but I'm kinda
doin' my own thing now.
And, uh...
Molly is eight
and she's honestly
kind of a handful.
Truthfully,
it has not been easy.
[laughing]
Uh, wow.
Well, she's
in really good hands.
[waves crashing]
It was cold.
You wore my jacket.
-Hey!
-[Oliver] It kept you warm.
Just talk to me.
[Oliver] But it never
really fit me right.
Everything then...
I don't know
what I could've called mine.
Tell me. Tell me what it is.
[Oliver] The heart
I gave you...
I can't. I-- I can't.
[Oliver]
...it wasn't really mine.
I can't.
I-- it's just the way they...
[Oliver] Sorry if
that's hard to hear.
[Jane] Don't say sorry.
I think I knew.
[sniffing] Even back then.
But it still felt
real to me, so...
Back then, you were always
a little distant.
But now, here,
seeing you play with the band.
I'm just glad
it worked out this way.
[Oliver] When I think
of that day...
as I was then...
it was all noise.
Now...
it's quiet.

[rhythmic drumming]
[engine rumbling]
[upbeat music playing]
[music continues]
[music stops]
[Jane humming]
[phone ringing]
-[cellphone beeps]
-Hello?
-[Stan] Uh, is this Jane?
-Mm-hmm.
[Stan] H-- hi, Jane.
This is Stan,
uh, a good friend of Sybil's.
-Oh, hi.
-[Stan] Hi, um...
Yeah, I have some--
some bad news.
Sybil was admitted
to the hospital last night
and, uh, she's not doing well.
What?
[Stan] They, um, put her
on a respirator this morning
and, uh,
she's in critical condition.
Uh, she might not live
through the night.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Um...
[Stan] If, um,
you'd like to say goodbye,
uh, you can come
to the hospital.
Unfortunately you won't
be able to be in her room,
but you can see her
through the window.
Yes. Yeah. I'm coming.
[Stan] So sorry
to tell you this.
[Stan's voice fades away]
[somber music playing]
[eerie music playing]
[uplifting music playing]
[speaking inaudibly]
[music continues]
[music fades away]
[phone rings]
Hello?
[Stan] Hi, Jane. It's Stan.
-Hi, Stan.
-[Stan] Um...
[Stan] Sybil passed away.
I'm so sorry.
[Stan] She loved you so much.
Thank you.
-[Stan] So sorry.
-Thank you.
[Stan] I'll keep you posted,
okay?
Bye.
[Stan] Bye.
[seatbelt clicks]
[rhythmic piano note playing]
[Spanish guitar melody playing]
Oh, God.
[turn signal clicking]
-Do you need a ride?
-[Valentina] Yes!
Thanks.
I hope
you weren't out there long.
[laughs] Long enough.
-Yeah.
-[Valentina sighs]
So, uh...
where are you heading to?
-Topanga Canyon.
-[Jane] Oh.
Unless we meet
some cute guys along the way.
[Jane laughs]
Actually, I'm fed up with men.
So predictable.
They're always like-- [mocking]
It's always the same.
Well, sometimes
that's not a bad thing.
I guess.
It is hard though.
It-- Those, you know,
certain parts of a man
that can't stop being a man.
That's the part I like.
-Really?
-[Valentina] Yeah.
[Valentina sighs]
How far are you going?
Oh, I can take you to
Topanga Canyon, it's on my way.
-[Valentina] No way.
-Yeah.
-[Valentina] Really?
-Mm-hmm.
Fantastic. All right.
Cool.
So, what's a lady
like you doing
driving along a lonely road?
I'm not sure.
[Valentina] You're not sure?
Hey, don't worry,
I'm not trying to hit on you.
It's just a question.
No-- I didn't--
I-- I'm-- No, I'm sorry.
I-- I just...
All I meant
was that I'm a little lost.
What do you mean?
It says right there
where you're going.
[Jane] Oh, I know that.
[laughs]
So, what? You think it's lying?
[chuckles]
[Jane] That's not
what I meant, I...
Never mind, it's...
[Valentina] Is it okay
if I put my music on?
Yeah. Yeah.
[upbeat music playing]
[Jane] Hey,
I'm Jane, by the way.
-What's your name?
-Valentina.
[Jane] Valentina.
God, that's a beautiful name.
God, my name's just Jane.
[laughs]
I'm so glad
that you needed a ride.
I was having some anxiety,
it's so nice
to have some company.
Hey, man,
I'm nobody's caretaker.
That is not what I mean.
No, I'm sorry, it's just
I've been driving alone
and it's nice
to have someone to talk to.
That's fine.
I just don't
take care of people.
Sometimes people pick you up
and think you're going
to be their savior.
So, you've never
taken care of anybody?
Yeah. Myself.
And that's the way I like it.
Now and always.
Huh. So you...
you don't wanna have children?
No, I wanna be free.
Free to travel and meet people.
I don't wanna get old to anyone
and I don't want
anyone to get old to me.
Well, that has to happen
in a relationship sometimes,
you know.
Sometimes-- sometimes
it's a lot of work.
Well, that's why I don't do it.
[laughs] I told you,
my relationship
is with freedom.
That's it.
And you don't get lonely?
Without anyone
to depend on, or...
come home to--
to-- to share with? To...
[Valentina blows raspberry]
[sighs]
[Jane] I can't remember
the last time I felt free.
I mean, honestly,
the idea of freedom scares me.
[Valentina]
Let's not get heavy.
It's bad for the skin.
[Jane] Oh, shit, is it?
Hey, how come you took this way
instead of the freeway?
It takes so much longer.
I like driving
on the open road.
You can see everything.
Sometimes when I'm going fast
on the freeway
and there's a bend up ahead,
I worry that right after
the bend, it drops off.
[Valentina] What?
[Jane] The road.
That it drops off and I won't
be able to stop, you know?
And it just ends.
Well, it's a good thing we're
on the highway then, right?
[Jane laughs]
-[Valentina] So thirsty.
-[Jane] Mm.
I could drink a whole ocean.
Mm.
I'm thirsty too.
I feel like I have a water,
where is it?
Careful!
[Jane] Here, have some.
I'm not gonna drink
your last sip of water.
Go on.
Have it. I want you to.
Wouldn't it be so great
if there were some cute guys
working down
on the side of the road
that we could give a lift to?
[Jane] I thought
you were fed up with guys.
I was just hot and crabby.
Cute guys are the best.
They make
everything bad disappear.
Well...
I think you'll find
some of those in Topanga.
Wait, what is that?
Whoa, what is that?
Do you see that?
-Yeah?
-What is that?
Is that a vendor cart up there?
Oh, my gosh, water!
[both chuckle]
[seatbelt clicks]
[wind blowing]
You saw it, didn't you?
Yes, he was pushing a cart.
He was right there.
Maybe it was a mirage.
That's crazy.
I don't like
this kind of things.
[Jane] It's okay.
It's okay, it happens.
Put your seatbelt on.
[wind blowing]
Well.
It's almost dinner time.
Wonder if anybody
even noticed I'm missing.
Oh, no.
Of course they did.
[laughs] I bet they're
wondering what I'm up to.
[inhales] Hmm.
If they knew
I'd picked up a stranger,
they'd send the whole
police force after me.
Little do they know, I'm not
coming back anytime soon.
[Jane laughs]
You haven't, like, escaped
from anywhere, have you?
Yeah, you could say that.
But I'm gonna go back.
I belong there.
I know that.
Just not yet.
Just taking
a little joyride, huh?
Joyride.
I like the way
that sounds, yeah.
Sounds kind of dangerous,
doesn't it?
Just on a little joyride.
Let me off here!
Are you sure?
[Valentina] Right-- right here.
Okay.
[Valentina] Thanks.
[Spanish music continues]
[upbeat Spanish song playing]
[sobbing]
[dog barks]
[Jane] Oh, my God.
Hi! Uh...
Uh. [speaking Spanish]
[speaking Spanish]
Excuse me?
[Jane] Oh, God,
I'm sorry. Jeez.
I'm the asshole.
You know, I actually have
something that can fix that
if you hold on
for, like, one second.
I'll be right back, okay?
Do you wanna sit down?
-Yeah.
-Okay.
Do you need help
with your dress?
-I'm fine.
-[Jane] Okay.
Right.
My name's Jane, by the way.
-Rose.
-Hi.
I've had to glue
my daughter's shoes together,
like, a million times,
so, let me see
what I can do, okay?
-[Rose] Okay.
-[Jane chuckles]
That's such a pretty dress.
I hate this dress.
I look like a tissue box
hooked up
with a virgin Mary candle.
I hate this neighborhood,
I hate this whole thing.
You know, my grandma's,
like, totally forcing me
-to do all this.
-Do what?
Have this quinceaera.
Wear this dress.
Uh, she's even making me dance
to Mexican music.
Maybe she's trying to get you
to embrace the culture?
She's from Albuquerque.
She's never
even been to Mexico.
Uh...
Okay.
Do you know what they call
high heels in Mexico?
Oh, you should
-probably wait a second--
-I'll be fine.
Okay.
[Rose] Stupid dress
and stupid pair of high heels.
[Jane] Okay.
I don't think
I'm gonna be able to
glue those back together now.
They call them tacones,
by the way.
High heels. In Mexico.
[Spanish song playing]
This is awesome.
[Jane] Are you sure
this place sells shoes?
[Rose] Trust me, you can get
new tires for your car here.
[Jane] Cool,
I've lived here for years,
I never even knew it was here.
-[speaking Spanish]
-[Jane chuckles]
[speaking Spanish]
She said you look beautiful.
You know it was my parents
who wanted to "Americanize" me?
In my old neighborhood,
I got shamed
for not speaking Spanish.
I'm like, "Well,
why don't you speak German?
My family got here in 1890,
what's your excuse?"
Hey, at least you're in
a new neighborhood now.
It's worse.
Now I get shamed
by other Latinos
because I'm too white.
You're gonna
get through this, all right?
'Cause I got you.
What, are you, like,
white Oprah or something?
[growls]
Hm, what do you think
of these zapatos?
You say that weird.
Oh, that's 'cause
I did a study abroad in Madrid.
My God,
something smells amazing.
Oh, I'm so hungry.
Do you wanna
get food after this?
It's my treat, I'll pay.
Okay.
Do you cook
a lot of Mexican food at home?
Yeah, I do.
For my grandpa.
My grandma makes me.
And then she's always talking
about the old ways
and how
I should be more like that.
Well, what do you want?
I don't want her to be mad,
but I also wanna be me.
Everyone struggles
to find a version
of themselves that they like.
Have you?
Okay, the dress.
You hate it. Why?
It's huge.
But it was my mom's.
And I miss her.
Well, you know, maybe
your grandma misses her too.
Yeah.
Yeah, it still
doesn't make it right
for her to make me dance
to Spanish music
with a bunch of strangers.
She's-- she doesn't care
about anything I like.
So, what do you like?
-Billie Eilish.
-Hey, I like Billie Eilish too!
I'm a bad guy
[both laugh]
These are more me.
[Jane] Yes, I agree.
Oh, my God, I hate heels.
All right, here we go.
-Food.
-[Rose] Thank you.
[Jane sighs]
Don't you think
we should get you back?
I'm sure your grandma's
worried about you.
I really don't feel
like going back yet.
I get it, I mean,
being your age is so tough.
-It sucks.
-[Jane] Yeah.
I'm still traumatized
from being a teenager.
[chuckles]
When I was your age,
my friend, Allison Janson,
stole my boyfriend.
-What a B.
-I know, right?
And the worst part
about it though
is that I never even said
anything to her about it,
and that part,
it still eats at me, and...
I don't want
your quinceaera to haunt you
when you're an adult,
so I would love for you
to find a way
to, like, own this day.
I'll dye my hair.
That-- [chuckles]
that is not what I meant.
You said it yourself!
No, I didn't say anything
to you about dyeing your hair.
Didn't you say I need
to find a version of myself
that I like?
What is your grandma
gonna say about that?
Look, I'm tired
of always making
other people happy.
[Jane chuckling] All right!
Okay, it's the moment of truth.
[hissing] Okay, all right.
Oh, my God, I can't believe
we're doing this.
[Rose screaming]
Dude, my grandma's
gonna kill me. [laughs]
Oh, my God.
Well, you know what?
Everybody's gonna
wanna dance with you now.
-What?
-At your quinceaera.
Dancing...
Oh.
-Okay, come on. Stand up.
-What?
Stand right there.
I'm gonna show you.
-It's so easy.
-Okay.
Okay, your arms are like this,
and you step back
with your right foot.
One, two, three, four.
You know what, it's so much
easier in real life
because you just
let the boy lead
even though most of the time,
they don't know
what they're doing.
That's sexist.
[soft Spanish melody playing]
You're right, it is.
[both chuckling]
All right, what're you gonna do
if it's not a waltz, though?
What do you mean,
like freestyle?
Yeah, like freestyle.
How're you gonna freestyle?
-Like a little of this.
-Oh!
-Okay! All right.
-Little of that.
[Jane] Yeah,
move it all around.
We can go down.
[Spanish vocal music playing]
Okay, we dyed your hair,
it's time to go home.
Wait. What about you?
-Oh, I am not dying my hair.
-No.
What version
of yourself do you wanna be?
Oh, God, I don't know.
I feel like I just
think about everybody else
all the time, I don't--
I don't even know.
Sounds exhausting.
Maybe it's time to
straighten out Allison Janson.
I'm not gonna
call Allison Janson.
I mean, how many
other Allison Jansons
have there been?
Okay. That is a fair point.
I have an idea. Come on.
[Jane] No, I feel like
you just don't wanna go home.
Maybe I don't.
-[Jane] Oh, my God.
-[Rose laughs]
[Rose] Come on.
Tell Allison what's up.
Uh, I'm-- I'm mad at you.
How was that?
I encourage violence.
Fine, I'll do it, I'll do it.
I hate you, Allison Janson.
I'm still mad because
you stole my boyfriend,
and I never even said
anything to you about it.
God, and I hate you,
Courtney Lynn,
for mommy shaming me!
[grunts]
And I really hate you, Dave,
because you left me,
because I made
one stupid mistake.
And I hate you, Jane,
most of all,
because you care
what everybody thinks,
and you don't even care
about yourself.
God!
[Jane grunts]
[Jane screams]
[Rose screams]
[chuckling]
[Jane] Oh, my God,
that actually
-felt kind of good.
-Yeah.
[Jane screams]
[both screaming, laughing]
[Jane chuckles]
Thank you.

["Rainbows"
by Mike O'Connel playing]
Woke up on a cloudy day
To find my plans
had been mislaid
To find
all I thought untrue
I saw no point
in keeping on
As all I'd gathered,
it had gone
And that included you
But I've learned
You gotta make
your own rainbows
'Cause it's never gonna rain
when you want it to
And the refraction
of the sun
Cannot be counted on
The rainbows
are mostly up to you
[Jane] Hi.
[laughs]
No way.
Yeah.
-Amy.
-It-- it's Jane.
I know,
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
-Jane.
-My God.
-What-- what--
-[Michael] Jane, hi.
Sorry, I'm very, very sweaty.
-It's okay, okay.
-This is--
-This is nuts.
-Yeah. This--
What-- what're you doing here?
I-- uh, I'm here
for a conference.
I'm a scientologist.
-I'm kidding.
-[both chuckling]
-What are you doing here?
-I live here.
Oh, right. Jeez. Yeah.
-You look great.
-So-- so do you.
Great shirt,
you work at a tiki bar now?
[Jane laughs]
Did you steal that
from Captain Lou Albano?
-[Jane] Oh, I'm so glad to--
-From the, uh, WWF?
The WWF? Oh, before the merger.
Oh! You knew that?
That was very sexist of me.
It's really comforting to know
that your jokes
haven't changed at all.
Yeah, I really
peaked in tenth grade.
Yeah, that was,
like, a great year for me.
[Jane chuckles]
-This is--
-Right.
I don't-- I don't even
know what to say. [chuckles]
Do you wanna maybe
go for a hike or something?
Um, uh...
[Michael] You have time?
Yeah, actually, I do.
I can do that.
All right,
um, it's kind of steep.
Do you have any water?
I know that's probably vodka.
-[Jane chuckles]
-I don't know where I'm going,
so we're gonna
probably be gone for days.
-How old is Molly? Molly.
-[Jane] Molly.
-[Michael] Yes.
-[Jane] Nice work.
-You remembered.
-[Michael] See? Amazing.
-Through the haze.
-[Jane] She's eight.
-[Michael] No way.
-[Jane] Mm-hmm.
[Michael] Oh, please,
tell me she's still in diapers
just to make me feel less old.
-I guess that would be weird.
-[Jane] How would that
-make you feel better?
-[Michael] Well, you know,
-she's still a baby.
-[Jane] She's eight,
-she's not a baby.
-[Michael] What's she doing?
-[Jane] She's at camp.
-[Michael] Oh.
-Where, specifically?
-[Jane] Why?
[Michael] It's a thing,
I collect addresses
of kids camps like stamps.
Don't worry about it.
She's somewhere
in the general Malibu area.
Is it one of those,
like, super genius camps?
Where they make robots
and stuff?
It's a regular kid camp.
-Canoeing and cabins, and...
-I see.
So they make robots
that can row in a canoe.
That's next year.
-That's advanced.
-[Jane sighs]
You, um...
like, what, single? Married?
Oh, my God.
What-- what is this?
Mu-- multiple husbands?
-God. I am single.
-All right.
What was that guy's name,
years ago.
-Dave.
-Dave.
Dave, remember
how he was always like,
"It's Dave. Not David."
That's all I remember of him,
I think I had, like...
-one drink with him.
-[Jane] Mm-hmm.
He was like,
"Please don't call me David."
He was, like, a felon, right?
No. He's just a regular
run-of-the-mill asshole.
-Okay.
-Why are you acting
like you don't know
anything about my life?
I see you lurking
on my Instagram stories.
Lurker is what
I have my Instagram set to.
That's all
the accounts I lurk in.
But your dog, that's usually
why I'm on there, 'cause...
so many handkerchiefs
and fun setups
that him look half-human.
-[Jane] What?
-[Michael] You know, like--
-[Jane] Half-human?
-[Michael] Well, you know,
because you, like,
dress him up in people clothes.
-He has all the sweaters.
-[Jane] God, it's pretty normal
to put a cute little
handkerchief on your dog.
[Michael] See,
this is what I'm talking about,
-now you sound crazy.
-[Jane laughs]
-[Michael chuckles]
-How are you?
Uh, you know, we're good,
it-- you know, as you know,
um, Melissa and I
were separated for a while,
a while back, but, well,
then we had a baby,
which, you know,
fixes everything.
-[laughs]
-You had another kid?
Yeah, you know.
Seemed like, you know,
the mature thing to do.
It turns out, uh,
that doesn't necessarily
help a marriage, uh,
as you have a child
that is up all the time,
but, that said,
you know,
we have gone to therapy a lot,
and we have worked on it
and we have worked on it,
and, you know,
like, we're-- it's--
it's this great new place.
And it's, uh,
totally different,
and good,
and I think it's a good spot.
-It was a lot of work, but--
-Wow.
I-- I'm kind of amazed,
you're, like--
Like a mature human being?
You're, like, a full adult now.
Yeah. Oh, look.
That guy escaped
from Jimmy Buffet's band.
Margaritaville for life.
[Jane sniffling]
I need you to know
that it's actually okay.
Is it? Are you sure?
'Cause if even--
It's okay, it's okay.
Just sorry
that I didn't stay in contact.
I really am.
You did, you know,
in your own way.
You'd, like, DM me at 3:00 a.m.
[sobbing] You know,
you could've called,
but you didn't, so...
Get, like,
three glasses of wine in me
and then...
It's my best DMing time.
I mean, I'm--
[melancholic
guitar melody playing]
[Jane sighs]
I'm sorry.
I think it--
I think it actually
really hurt my feelings
when you ghosted me.
It was just a bad joke, too,
and I don't know when to stop.
It's okay.
I-- I feel like now that I know
your whole situation,
I actually
really respect what you did,
because you didn't run away
from your
responsibilities, so...
Yeah, now you just know
I'm half a piece of shit.
[chuckles] You're not.
No, I am.
But, uh, you know.
Thank you for understanding,
-'cause I was--
-You're not.
-You-- you would.
-No, I wouldn't.
-Really.
-You really--
-You would...
-I would not.
...'cause I know
that you're a good person,
so I know you would understand.
-No I'm not.
-You are.
You really are.
Yeah, sometimes, uh...
I wish things were different.
[chuckling] Me too.
But, you know...
[chuckles] People change, and,
um, maybe--
maybe if you really knew me,
you wouldn't even
really like me that much so...
Jane, you're still the same.
-No, I'm not, I swear to you--
-[Michael] No, that--
-that's a compliment.
-No, I-- I've--
I'm not the same person,
-I'm not.
-No, it's why I love you.
-No, please don't say that.
-You know that.
Please don't say that.
I am not joking.
-I always have.
-No.
I'm not trying
to start anything, I swear.
I'm not.
It's just...
in some other world,
some other time...
we would've been together.
Yeah, I mean, maybe, yeah.
Why'd you do that?
[both laughing]
I'm so glad I went running.
[Jane laughing]
Okay.
-Let's do it.
-[chuckling] All right.
-Okay.
-Okay?
-All right.
-Let's run away.
Right now.
If you say the word,
I'll run away with you.
[whispering] Just say it.
Let's go.
No, I can't, I can't.
-I can't do it, I can't.
-[Michael] Jane.
-Eight years ago...
-Jesus.
...I screwed up.
I regret it every day.
We were both free.
[whispering] Let's run away.
-Come on.
-I think--
[sobbing] I can't,
because I don't want you
to do that to your family.
I don't wanna be the reason
that you do that to your kids.
I don't wanna be the reason
that you leave your wife.
You're not the reason, it's me.
You're gonna regret it,
I swear,
you're gonna regret it.
A little. It doesn't--
-Oh, a little?
-It doesn't matter--
When your kids hate you,
and everyone says
that you're so terrible,
because you left your wife?
I don't wanna do that to you.
And you don't even
really know me.
I mean, it was one night
eight years ago,
I swear to you,
I'm so annoying,
you wouldn't really like me
that much if you dated me.
You can be annoying.
But you were annoying
in seventh grade
when I first met you,
when you transferred up
from Reizenstein.
[sobbing]
How do you remember that?
Because there was
a light around you
as you sat at your desk,
and I was like...
there's an angel right there.
No, no--
-And then you talked to me.
-No.
It's-- it-- it can't--
This is, like,
a fantasy projection,
and maybe
I've thought about it, okay?
-But I-- I--
-Yeah, you thought about it.
I thought about it.
We thought about it.
Okay, all right.
All right, Jesus Christ, but--
Look, I'm not gonna regret
a single thing, you said it.
It was statistically impossible
that we would be together.
Right now at this moment
we are here right now.
I don't even know
if it's real, but I hope it is.
Okay, but what-- what if
the reason
that we ran into each other
is 'cause we just
needed to see each other,
and have closure,
and just be able to walk away,
and-- and never
think about it ever again?
I've had this conversation
a thousand times with you.
I've had it so many times,
you have no idea.
-Let's go.
-I can't.
Let's finally go and do it.
No, I don't wanna
do that to you.
I-- I don't think I would
like you if you did that.
I've thought about this
so many times.
And now you're here,
and you're saying it.
You're saying everything
I ever wanted you to say,
but I can't do it.
-I have to say no, because--
-Jane, please.
-No, because there's...
-Please, please.
...something more important,
there's something
more important
than just being happy, okay?
And that's what I've realized,
so I want you to just go home.
Go home,
and look at your kids, okay?
Go home to your family.
And it'll be okay.
Just don't think about it.
All right? And I'll be okay.
And you'll be okay.
All right,
there's just some things
you have to live with, okay?
-Okay?
-[kiss smacks]
[sentimental
instrumental playing]
[Jane sobbing]
Okay. Okay.
So, when you find yourself
on a cloudy day
And all the hope
seems so far away
Put a rainbow
in your smile
And just keep on
making your own rainbows
'Cause it's never gonna rain
quite when you want it to
And the refraction
of the sun
Cannot be counted on
The rainbows
are always up to you
The rainbows
are always up to you

[director] Jane?
[Jane] This is she.

Before you say yes or no,
I want you to know something.

and every woman is a star.
[Jane] I can't believe
you still have my number.
[director laughing]
I never forget talent.
I have something new for you.
Something you love.
It's this afternoon.
I'll text you the address.
Oh, I don't--
Oh, um, I don't think
that I have time.
Sorry.
[director] Jane,
you're going to spend a day
hiding in your car,
an iced americano
in your hand,
wondering if you made
the right decision.
[eerie vocal music playing]
Jane.
Take off your glasses.
There are some choices
that are more honest
than others.
But there are no mistakes.
Should we expect you?
What's the role?

Not like that.

God gave me nothing
and then he took it all away.
God gave me nothing.
And then he took it all away.
And then he took it all away.

[man] Shh!
[director] I'm glad you came.
Do you have questions?
Good. Grab the chair.
Move it
in the center of the room.
Sit.
Don't move or speak
unless you have an impulse to.
We want to know you.
-Thanks.
-[director laughs]
[director] Open your mouth.
And close it.
Open and stretch,
stretch your face.
Closing it.
And stretch it.
Close it and shake it out.
Good. Relax.
You don't have to
worry about your lines.
What lines?
[director] Hold out your hands.
Palms up.
And down.
And up.
And down.
And up and down,
and up and down,
and up and down, and up.

Who do they belong to?
[Jane scoffs]
[director] Are you ready...
to wash yourself of yourself?
-[Jane laughing]
-Do you remember how?
I think you're full of shit.
Oh, come on.
Something real.
I want to hear your real voice.
-[Jane groans]
-[director] Oh, come on.
-[Jane groans]
-[director] Again.
-[Jane groaning]
-[director] Again.
[Jane groaning loudly]
Do you remember
the long dark stretch
before the world
became your world?
The self became yourself?
Scream!

[boy] You're bleeding.
[eerie instrumental playing]
[elevator dings]
[elevator door creaks closed]
[Jane 2 panting]
When I tell you
to stay in the car,
it's not a suggestion,
it's a request, okay?
I expect you
to stay in the car.
You can't just go disappearing
like that, do you understand?
Do you understand me?
I can't believe this,
like you just
wanna mess things up.
[Jane] Hi. Um.
Hi, sorry, um, that's my car.
Excuse me.
Sorry! Excuse me!
Um...
-this is my car.
-This is my job.
I need you to respect that.
[Jane 1 shouting indistinctly]
I need you to--
[Jane 1 shouting indistinctly]
This is my car.
What're-- what're you doing?
Why can't you be alone
for a half hour?
I swear to God,
you're doing this on purpose.
You are trying to make things
difficult for me on purpose.
Do you hear me?
No, wait, wait!
-[Jane 2] Come back!
-[Jane 1] Oh, my God.
[distantly] What are you doing?
This is my car!
[Jane 2] This is your fault.
This is your fault!
-You did this.
-What?
Wait, no!
I have to get my daughter!
No! Wait!
No, stop! Stop!
[panting]
[eerie instrumental playing]
Where's my phone?
[panting, grunting]

There's a breeze,

You are here now.
You are with us.
Beautiful work.
How do you feel?
[camera zoom whirring]
[melancholic

[Jane] Oh, my God.
Oh, my God,
oh, my God, oh, my God.
Give me a hug. Big squeeze.
Oh, my gosh,
I missed you so much.
Tell me everything you did.
I wanna hear-- I wanna hear
every single thing you did.
[Molly] Well, I went
swimming in the lake.
-[Jane] Uh-huh.
-[Molly] Every day.
[Jane gasps]
-I really missed you.
-Me too.
["Hey Jane"
by Spiritualized playing]
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
You took a call,
then you ran all day
That clock goin' 110
I never said
I'd get you back again
Said "I ain't got time
to make no mistakes"
"Ain't got time
to waste my brakes"
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
You lit a fire
then you fanned the flame
They say
you got a troubled soul
I say you got it on a roll
Said you ain't got time
to change your ways
Ain't got time
to make no mistakes
With you
Show 'em what you can do
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
Ain't got a love
for you anyway
You get so tired
of hanging around
I'll meet you there
when you comin' down
Well, you got good style
and a little taste
Carved your name
right into my face
Hey Jane,
where you going today?
You broke my heart,
then you ran away
Some say
you've got a rotten soul
But I said
"Janey loves rock 'n roll"
Said you ain't got time,
you're a long-time dead
Ain't got time
to mess my head with you
Show 'em what you can do
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
You hit the fast lane
right away
Got no breaks
for your rotten life
A heart like yours
is never satisfied
Said you ain't got time,
it's such a waste
You run so fast
you get no place
Hey, Jane,
where you going today?
I'll get a car for you
right away
That cop going 110
"Fast lane," Jane said,
"fast lane, faster!"
Ain't got time
to make no mistakes
Ain't got time
to waste my time with you
Hey Jane,
when you gonna die?
Live life like a butterfly
We're safe, baby,
by your side
Cheat death
on another ride
Hey Jane,
when you gonna die?
You got wings

Meet death, baby,
all alone

What if you love it?
What if no one talks to me?
I really don't think
that's gonna happen.
[Molly] Did you go to camp?
-Yeah.
-[Molly] Did you love it?
I knew it!
Well, you're braver than I am.
How 'bout this.
You wanna make a deal?
-[Molly] Fine.
-Okay. Here's the deal.
You try it out
for a couple of days,
you go swimming,
you do the ropes course,
see if you can make
some friends,
and if you really hate it,
like, really,
really, really hate it,
I'll come get you.
-Promise?
-Yes.
-I promise.
-Fine.
-All right?
-Eh...
I think you're gonna like it.

Hi, how are you?

Oh, you're gonna have

Where is your apron, Jane?
I'm sorry, what?
Here, put this on.

Tell me where it is.
Where's what?
All right. That's it.
I've had enough.
Tie her up
and put her in the boot.
Time to go see you-know-who.
[doorbell dinging]
Wait a second.
Who are you?
I'm Jane, who are you?
Okay, yes,
this all makes sense now.
This is the Jane who works here
and this is the Jane
that you're looking for.
No, I am not.
[Jane gasps]
Yes, you are.
No, I'm not.
Yes, you are.

All right then.
Only one way to settle this.
Call it.
-Heads.
-Tails.
Okay, then.
Heads and you get to go free,
but she's coming with me.
Tails and you get to go free...
but she's coming with me.
[tense music playing]
[tires screeching]
[calm music playing]
[waves crashing]
[Jane] Did we know
each other then?
All you said was true...
and still...
you left without looking back.
If we could
speak to them now...
what would they say?
Oliver!
[phone ringing]
Hey, Oliver. Hi.
[Oliver]
Let me guess. You're lost.
No, not this time.
I just stopped
to grab a few things, so...
[Oliver] You're good.
Just pull up by the shore.
I'm right here.
All right,
I'll see you soon. [chuckles]
-I can't wait.
-[call ended beeping]
Okay.
[rhythmic drumming]
[young Jane]
I love you so much.
[young Oliver] I love you too.
[young Jane]
Your eyes are so beautiful.
I can't wait for you
to meet my family.
[Oliver] Jane!
Jane! Jane!
[Jane gasps]
-Oh, wow.
-Yo.
-[Jane] Hi.
-Wow.
[Jane chuckles] Hi.
-Oh, my God.
-Look at you.
-[Jane] Wow.
-Oh, my gosh.
Hey.
Oh, man. I'll hug you.
Okay. [Jane laughs]
[Oliver] It's really nice
to see you.
[Jane] Sorry.
[Jane sighs]
I mean, you look-- in...
When was the last time...
Oh, it was here.
Well, I mean, it was near here.
-That was here?
-Yeah.
Remember, we had
that little spot by the rocks?
I thought that's why
you wanted to meet here.
Oh! No, no, no.
We're not going up there.
I got a show
down on the shore tonight.
Oh, wow.
[Oliver] Is that all right?
Uh, you, um-- Yeah, of course.
-It's fine. Yeah.
-Okay.
Wow. Jane.
I can't even believe
you're here.
[Jane chuckles]
So wait. You're playing music?
Are-- You're--
D-- drums or wh-?
[Oliver] No, I lead the band.
-It's my music.
-[Jane] What?
[indistinct]
[Oliver] Yeah, I drum a little,
I did when I was younger,
but fell off
when we were together.
Picked it back up with
these folks a few years back
and still going with it.
[Jane] Hi, nice to meet you.
I'm Jane.
[Oliver] An old friend
from way back.
I'm-- Hi. Hi!
Oh, sorry. [laughs]
Hi, it's a pleasure
to meet you.
-How are you? Hi.
-[Oliver] Some guys back here--
[Jane] Hi.
Pleasure to meet you.
Hi. Good day.
Hi. Lovely to meet you as well.
-Hello.
-[Oliver] And--
Pleasure. Pleasure. Hi. Hi!
So nice to meet you.
[Jane] We've known each other
for, like, ten years, but I--
[band member] Yeah, he's
never said your name before.
[Jane laughs] Well, I mean,
we haven't seen each other--
Okay, you guys,
we need to rehearse.
[Jane] Nice to meet you all.
They call you Tayo now?
[Oliver] Yeah.
I mean, that's my name.
Oliver was something
my parents came up with
when they came here.
Yeah. It's the band.
Um, well,
I brought a blanket, so.
Oh. Okay.
I-- I mean I don't--
I can go somewhere else.
[Oliver] No, no, no, it's fine.
Yeah, it's--
let me help you with that.
Okay. Oh, I can do it.
-It's--
-[Jane] Oh, okay.
-I got it. Yeah.
-Thank you.
That's nice of you.
[both] All right.
Are you sure I'm okay to stay?
Of course, why not?
I-- I mean, this is your space
and I really don't wanna--
Look, it-- it's all good.
Tayo.
You're cool.
We're just gonna run through
our routines for later.
It's all good.
-Okay?
-Okay.
-[Oliver laughs] Okay.
-Okay.
All right. [sighs]
[upbeat disco music playing]
[young Jane]
I love you so much.
[young Oliver] I love you too.
[young Jane] Do you wanna
go on a road trip?
You and me
and two or three kids?
I can't wait for you
to meet my family.
[music continues]
Come on!
[waves splashing]
Oliver!
Ol-- Oliver,
my whole family is coming.
We have dinner.
What-- you--
you don't wanna go back?
I-- I don't wanna talk
about this right now.
Let's just-- like...
Honey, where are you gonna go?
-[Oliver] Yeah, I got it.
-[Chioma] Oh, my God!
[Oliver] Whoa!
[indistinct chatter]
[Chioma] I wanna make a toast.
To love, life,
and a great show.
-[cheering]
-[glass clinking]
[laughs]
[indistinct]
[Chioma] Thank you.
[Oliver] By the way, chin-chin.
-Here you go.
-Oh, my gosh, thank you.
That was so beautiful.
That was nothing.
Just warming up.
[Chioma] I mean,
look at you, though.
This is my favorite part
of the meal.
That's the best one.
[dancer] What are
we doing tonight?
[speaking indistinctly]
[laughing]
Thank you.
[indistinct chatter]
[Chioma] Pass 'em, pass 'em.
[Oliver] Hey.
[sighs] Get over here.
What'd you think?
I mean,
my heart's still racing.
All the years I knew you, I--
I never saw you move like that.
Wh-- what do you mean?
I-- I danced.
So now you remember?
'Cause earlier it was like,
"Oh, I have a show
on the beach,
I don't remember
anything about,
you know, those rocks or..."
So now you remember?
Of course I remember.
I-- You're right, I...
I didn't move like that.
[fire crackling]
Almost a decade ago, hm?
So...
what do you remember
about that day?
Sorry.
I'm sorry, I did not come here
to put you on the spot.
So why did you?
You get stuck.
Or you feel like it.
And I think...
the first place you wanna go
is where you
didn't feel so stuck.
And, honestly,
I just wanted to see you.
And where you went to.
Um...
How're your parents?
Man, I don't know.
Honestly, they're the same,
but I'm kinda
doin' my own thing now.
And, uh...
Molly is eight
and she's honestly
kind of a handful.
Truthfully,
it has not been easy.
[laughing]
Uh, wow.
Well, she's
in really good hands.
[waves crashing]
It was cold.
You wore my jacket.
-Hey!
-[Oliver] It kept you warm.
Just talk to me.
[Oliver] But it never
really fit me right.
Everything then...
I don't know
what I could've called mine.
Tell me. Tell me what it is.
[Oliver] The heart
I gave you...
I can't. I-- I can't.
[Oliver]
...it wasn't really mine.
I can't.
I-- it's just the way they...
[Oliver] Sorry if
that's hard to hear.
[Jane] Don't say sorry.
I think I knew.
[sniffing] Even back then.
But it still felt
real to me, so...
Back then, you were always
a little distant.
But now, here,
seeing you play with the band.
I'm just glad
it worked out this way.
[Oliver] When I think
of that day...
as I was then...
it was all noise.
Now...
it's quiet.
[indistinct chatter
in the background]
[rhythmic drumming]
[engine rumbling]
[upbeat music playing]
[music continues]
[music stops]
[Jane humming]
[phone ringing]
-[cellphone beeps]
-Hello?
-[Stan] Uh, is this Jane?
-Mm-hmm.
[Stan] H-- hi, Jane.
This is Stan,
uh, a good friend of Sybil's.
-Oh, hi.
-[Stan] Hi, um...
Yeah, I have some--
some bad news.
Sybil was admitted
to the hospital last night
and, uh, she's not doing well.
What?
[Stan] They, um, put her
on a respirator this morning
and, uh,
she's in critical condition.
Uh, she might not live
through the night.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Um...
[Stan] If, um,
you'd like to say goodbye,
uh, you can come
to the hospital.
Unfortunately you won't
be able to be in her room,
but you can see her
through the window.
Yes. Yeah. I'm coming.
[Stan] So sorry
to tell you this.
[Stan's voice fades away]
[somber music playing]
[eerie music playing]
[uplifting music playing]
[speaking inaudibly]
[music continues]
[music fades away]
[phone rings]
Hello?
[Stan] Hi, Jane. It's Stan.
-Hi, Stan.
-[Stan] Um...
[Stan] Sybil passed away.
I'm so sorry.
[Stan] She loved you so much.
Thank you.
-[Stan] So sorry.
-Thank you.
[Stan] I'll keep you posted,
okay?
Bye.
[Stan] Bye.
[seatbelt clicks]
[rhythmic piano note playing]
[Spanish guitar melody playing]
Oh, God.
[turn signal clicking]
-Do you need a ride?
-[Valentina] Yes!
Thanks.
I hope
you weren't out there long.
[laughs] Long enough.
-Yeah.
-[Valentina sighs]
So, uh...
where are you heading to?
-Topanga Canyon.
-[Jane] Oh.
Unless we meet
some cute guys along the way.
[Jane laughs]
Actually, I'm fed up with men.
So predictable.
They're always like-- [mocking]
It's always the same.
Well, sometimes
that's not a bad thing.
I guess.
It is hard though.
It-- Those, you know,
certain parts of a man
that can't stop being a man.
That's the part I like.
-Really?
-[Valentina] Yeah.
[Valentina sighs]
How far are you going?
Oh, I can take you to
Topanga Canyon, it's on my way.
-[Valentina] No way.
-Yeah.
-[Valentina] Really?
-Mm-hmm.
Fantastic. All right.
Cool.
So, what's a lady
like you doing
driving along a lonely road?
I'm not sure.
[Valentina] You're not sure?
Hey, don't worry,
I'm not trying to hit on you.
It's just a question.
No-- I didn't--
I-- I'm-- No, I'm sorry.
I-- I just...
All I meant
was that I'm a little lost.
What do you mean?
It says right there
where you're going.
[Jane] Oh, I know that.
[laughs]
So, what? You think it's lying?
[chuckles]
[Jane] That's not
what I meant, I...
Never mind, it's...
[Valentina] Is it okay
if I put my music on?
Yeah. Yeah.
[upbeat music playing]
[Jane] Hey,
I'm Jane, by the way.
-What's your name?
-Valentina.
[Jane] Valentina.
God, that's a beautiful name.
God, my name's just Jane.
[laughs]
I'm so glad
that you needed a ride.
I was having some anxiety,
it's so nice
to have some company.
Hey, man,
I'm nobody's caretaker.
That is not what I mean.
No, I'm sorry, it's just
I've been driving alone
and it's nice
to have someone to talk to.
That's fine.
I just don't
take care of people.
Sometimes people pick you up
and think you're going
to be their savior.
So, you've never
taken care of anybody?
Yeah. Myself.
And that's the way I like it.
Now and always.
Huh. So you...
you don't wanna have children?
No, I wanna be free.
Free to travel and meet people.
I don't wanna get old to anyone
and I don't want
anyone to get old to me.
Well, that has to happen
in a relationship sometimes,
you know.
Sometimes-- sometimes
it's a lot of work.
Well, that's why I don't do it.
[laughs] I told you,
my relationship
is with freedom.
That's it.
And you don't get lonely?
Without anyone
to depend on, or...
come home to--
to-- to share with? To...
[Valentina blows raspberry]
[sighs]
[Jane] I can't remember
the last time I felt free.
I mean, honestly,
the idea of freedom scares me.
[Valentina]
Let's not get heavy.
It's bad for the skin.
[Jane] Oh, shit, is it?
Hey, how come you took this way
instead of the freeway?
It takes so much longer.
I like driving
on the open road.
You can see everything.
Sometimes when I'm going fast
on the freeway
and there's a bend up ahead,
I worry that right after
the bend, it drops off.
[Valentina] What?
[Jane] The road.
That it drops off and I won't
be able to stop, you know?
And it just ends.
Well, it's a good thing we're
on the highway then, right?
[Jane laughs]
-[Valentina] So thirsty.
-[Jane] Mm.
I could drink a whole ocean.
Mm.
I'm thirsty too.
I feel like I have a water,
where is it?
Careful!
[Jane] Here, have some.
I'm not gonna drink
your last sip of water.
Go on.
Have it. I want you to.
Wouldn't it be so great
if there were some cute guys
working down
on the side of the road
that we could give a lift to?
[Jane] I thought
you were fed up with guys.
I was just hot and crabby.
Cute guys are the best.
They make
everything bad disappear.
Well...
I think you'll find
some of those in Topanga.
Wait, what is that?
Whoa, what is that?
Do you see that?
-Yeah?
-What is that?
Is that a vendor cart up there?
Oh, my gosh, water!
[both chuckle]
[seatbelt clicks]
[wind blowing]
You saw it, didn't you?
Yes, he was pushing a cart.
He was right there.
Maybe it was a mirage.
That's crazy.
I don't like
this kind of things.
[Jane] It's okay.
It's okay, it happens.
Put your seatbelt on.
[wind blowing]
Well.
It's almost dinner time.
Wonder if anybody
even noticed I'm missing.
Oh, no.
Of course they did.
[laughs] I bet they're
wondering what I'm up to.
[inhales] Hmm.
If they knew
I'd picked up a stranger,
they'd send the whole
police force after me.
Little do they know, I'm not
coming back anytime soon.
[Jane laughs]
You haven't, like, escaped
from anywhere, have you?
Yeah, you could say that.
But I'm gonna go back.
I belong there.
I know that.
Just not yet.
Just taking
a little joyride, huh?
Joyride.
I like the way
that sounds, yeah.
Sounds kind of dangerous,
doesn't it?
Just on a little joyride.
Let me off here!
Are you sure?
[Valentina] Right-- right here.
Okay.
[Valentina] Thanks.
[Spanish music continues]
[upbeat Spanish song playing]
[sobbing]
[dog barks]
[Jane] Oh, my God.
Hi! Uh...
Uh. [speaking Spanish]
[speaking Spanish]
Excuse me?
[Jane] Oh, God,
I'm sorry. Jeez.
I'm the asshole.
You know, I actually have
something that can fix that
if you hold on
for, like, one second.
I'll be right back, okay?
Do you wanna sit down?
-Yeah.
-Okay.
Do you need help
with your dress?
-I'm fine.
-[Jane] Okay.
Right.
My name's Jane, by the way.
-Rose.
-Hi.
I've had to glue
my daughter's shoes together,
like, a million times,
so, let me see
what I can do, okay?
-[Rose] Okay.
-[Jane chuckles]
That's such a pretty dress.
I hate this dress.
I look like a tissue box
hooked up
with a virgin Mary candle.
I hate this neighborhood,
I hate this whole thing.
You know, my grandma's,
like, totally forcing me
-to do all this.
-Do what?
Have this quinceaera.
Wear this dress.
Uh, she's even making me dance
to Mexican music.
Maybe she's trying to get you
to embrace the culture?
She's from Albuquerque.
She's never
even been to Mexico.
Uh...
Okay.
Do you know what they call
high heels in Mexico?
Oh, you should
-probably wait a second--
-I'll be fine.
Okay.
[Rose] Stupid dress
and stupid pair of high heels.
[Jane] Okay.
I don't think
I'm gonna be able to
glue those back together now.
They call them tacones,
by the way.
High heels. In Mexico.
[Spanish song playing]
This is awesome.
[Jane] Are you sure
this place sells shoes?
[Rose] Trust me, you can get
new tires for your car here.
[Jane] Cool,
I've lived here for years,
I never even knew it was here.
-[speaking Spanish]
-[Jane chuckles]
[speaking Spanish]
She said you look beautiful.
You know it was my parents
who wanted to "Americanize" me?
In my old neighborhood,
I got shamed
for not speaking Spanish.
I'm like, "Well,
why don't you speak German?
My family got here in 1890,
what's your excuse?"
Hey, at least you're in
a new neighborhood now.
It's worse.
Now I get shamed
by other Latinos
because I'm too white.
You're gonna
get through this, all right?
'Cause I got you.
What, are you, like,
white Oprah or something?
[growls]
Hm, what do you think
of these zapatos?
You say that weird.
Oh, that's 'cause
I did a study abroad in Madrid.
My God,
something smells amazing.
Oh, I'm so hungry.
Do you wanna
get food after this?
It's my treat, I'll pay.
Okay.
Do you cook
a lot of Mexican food at home?
Yeah, I do.
For my grandpa.
My grandma makes me.
And then she's always talking
about the old ways
and how
I should be more like that.
Well, what do you want?
I don't want her to be mad,
but I also wanna be me.
Everyone struggles
to find a version
of themselves that they like.
Have you?
Okay, the dress.
You hate it. Why?
It's huge.
But it was my mom's.
And I miss her.
Well, you know, maybe
your grandma misses her too.
Yeah.
Yeah, it still
doesn't make it right
for her to make me dance
to Spanish music
with a bunch of strangers.
She's-- she doesn't care
about anything I like.
So, what do you like?
-Billie Eilish.
-Hey, I like Billie Eilish too!
I'm a bad guy
[both laugh]
These are more me.
[Jane] Yes, I agree.
Oh, my God, I hate heels.
All right, here we go.
-Food.
-[Rose] Thank you.
[Jane sighs]
Don't you think
we should get you back?
I'm sure your grandma's
worried about you.
I really don't feel
like going back yet.
I get it, I mean,
being your age is so tough.
-It sucks.
-[Jane] Yeah.
I'm still traumatized
from being a teenager.
[chuckles]
When I was your age,
my friend, Allison Janson,
stole my boyfriend.
-What a B.
-I know, right?
And the worst part
about it though
is that I never even said
anything to her about it,
and that part,
it still eats at me, and...
I don't want
your quinceaera to haunt you
when you're an adult,
so I would love for you
to find a way
to, like, own this day.
I'll dye my hair.
That-- [chuckles]
that is not what I meant.
You said it yourself!
No, I didn't say anything
to you about dyeing your hair.
Didn't you say I need
to find a version of myself
that I like?
What is your grandma
gonna say about that?
Look, I'm tired
of always making
other people happy.
[Jane chuckling] All right!
Okay, it's the moment of truth.
[hissing] Okay, all right.
Oh, my God, I can't believe
we're doing this.
[Rose screaming]
Dude, my grandma's
gonna kill me. [laughs]
Oh, my God.
Well, you know what?
Everybody's gonna
wanna dance with you now.
-What?
-At your quinceaera.
Dancing...
Oh.
-Okay, come on. Stand up.
-What?
Stand right there.
I'm gonna show you.
-It's so easy.
-Okay.
Okay, your arms are like this,
and you step back
with your right foot.
One, two, three, four.
You know what, it's so much
easier in real life
because you just
let the boy lead
even though most of the time,
they don't know
what they're doing.
That's sexist.
[soft Spanish melody playing]
You're right, it is.
[both chuckling]
All right, what're you gonna do
if it's not a waltz, though?
What do you mean,
like freestyle?
Yeah, like freestyle.
How're you gonna freestyle?
-Like a little of this.
-Oh!
-Okay! All right.
-Little of that.
[Jane] Yeah,
move it all around.
We can go down.
[Spanish vocal music playing]
Okay, we dyed your hair,
it's time to go home.
Wait. What about you?
-Oh, I am not dying my hair.
-No.
What version
of yourself do you wanna be?
Oh, God, I don't know.
I feel like I just
think about everybody else
all the time, I don't--
I don't even know.
Sounds exhausting.
Maybe it's time to
straighten out Allison Janson.
I'm not gonna
call Allison Janson.
I mean, how many
other Allison Jansons
have there been?
Okay. That is a fair point.
I have an idea. Come on.
[Jane] No, I feel like
you just don't wanna go home.
Maybe I don't.
-[Jane] Oh, my God.
-[Rose laughs]
[Rose] Come on.
Tell Allison what's up.
Uh, I'm-- I'm mad at you.
How was that?
I encourage violence.
Fine, I'll do it, I'll do it.
I hate you, Allison Janson.
I'm still mad because
you stole my boyfriend,
and I never even said
anything to you about it.
God, and I hate you,
Courtney Lynn,
for mommy shaming me!
[grunts]
And I really hate you, Dave,
because you left me,
because I made
one stupid mistake.
And I hate you, Jane,
most of all,
because you care
what everybody thinks,
and you don't even care
about yourself.
God!
[Jane grunts]
[Jane screams]
[Rose screams]
[chuckling]
[Jane] Oh, my God,
that actually
-felt kind of good.
-Yeah.
[Jane screams]
[both screaming, laughing]
[Jane chuckles]
Thank you.
[upbeat instrumental playing]
["Rainbows"

Woke up on a cloudy day
To find my plans
had been mislaid
To find
all I thought untrue
I saw no point
in keeping on
As all I'd gathered,
it had gone
And that included you
But I've learned
You gotta make
your own rainbows
'Cause it's never gonna rain

And the refraction

Cannot be counted on

[Jane] Hi.
[laughs]
No way.
Yeah.
-Amy.
-It-- it's Jane.
I know,
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
-Jane.
-My God.
-What-- what--
-[Michael] Jane, hi.
Sorry, I'm very, very sweaty.
-It's okay, okay.
-This is--
-This is nuts.
-Yeah. This--
What-- what're you doing here?
I-- uh, I'm here
for a conference.
I'm a scientologist.
-I'm kidding.
-[both chuckling]
-What are you doing here?
-I live here.
Oh, right. Jeez. Yeah.
-You look great.
-So-- so do you.
Great shirt,
you work at a tiki bar now?
[Jane laughs]
Did you steal that
from Captain Lou Albano?
-[Jane] Oh, I'm so glad to--
-From the, uh, WWF?
The WWF? Oh, before the merger.
Oh! You knew that?
That was very sexist of me.
It's really comforting to know
that your jokes
haven't changed at all.
Yeah, I really
peaked in tenth grade.
Yeah, that was,
like, a great year for me.
[Jane chuckles]
-This is--
-Right.
I don't-- I don't even
know what to say. [chuckles]
Do you wanna maybe
go for a hike or something?
Um, uh...
[Michael] You have time?
Yeah, actually, I do.
I can do that.
All right,
um, it's kind of steep.
Do you have any water?
I know that's probably vodka.
-[Jane chuckles]
-I don't know where I'm going,
so we're gonna
probably be gone for days.
-How old is Molly? Molly.
-[Jane] Molly.
-[Michael] Yes.
-[Jane] Nice work.
-You remembered.
-[Michael] See? Amazing.
-Through the haze.
-[Jane] She's eight.
-[Michael] No way.
-[Jane] Mm-hmm.
[Michael] Oh, please,
tell me she's still in diapers
just to make me feel less old.
-I guess that would be weird.
-[Jane] How would that
-make you feel better?
-[Michael] Well, you know,
-she's still a baby.
-[Jane] She's eight,
-she's not a baby.
-[Michael] What's she doing?
-[Jane] She's at camp.
-[Michael] Oh.
-Where, specifically?
-[Jane] Why?
[Michael] It's a thing,
I collect addresses
of kids camps like stamps.
Don't worry about it.
She's somewhere
in the general Malibu area.
Is it one of those,
like, super genius camps?
Where they make robots
and stuff?
It's a regular kid camp.
-Canoeing and cabins, and...
-I see.
So they make robots
that can row in a canoe.
That's next year.
-That's advanced.
-[Jane sighs]
You, um...
like, what, single? Married?
Oh, my God.
What-- what is this?
Mu-- multiple husbands?
-God. I am single.
-All right.
What was that guy's name,
years ago.
-Dave.
-Dave.
Dave, remember
how he was always like,
"It's Dave. Not David."
That's all I remember of him,
I think I had, like...
-one drink with him.
-[Jane] Mm-hmm.
He was like,
"Please don't call me David."
He was, like, a felon, right?
No. He's just a regular
run-of-the-mill asshole.
-Okay.
-Why are you acting
like you don't know
anything about my life?
I see you lurking
on my Instagram stories.
Lurker is what
I have my Instagram set to.
That's all
the accounts I lurk in.
But your dog, that's usually
why I'm on there, 'cause...
so many handkerchiefs
and fun setups
that him look half-human.
-[Jane] What?
-[Michael] You know, like--
-[Jane] Half-human?
-[Michael] Well, you know,
because you, like,
dress him up in people clothes.
-He has all the sweaters.
-[Jane] God, it's pretty normal
to put a cute little
handkerchief on your dog.
[Michael] See,
this is what I'm talking about,
-now you sound crazy.
-[Jane laughs]
-[Michael chuckles]
-How are you?
Uh, you know, we're good,
it-- you know, as you know,
um, Melissa and I
were separated for a while,
a while back, but, well,
then we had a baby,
which, you know,
fixes everything.
-[laughs]
-You had another kid?
Yeah, you know.
Seemed like, you know,
the mature thing to do.
It turns out, uh,
that doesn't necessarily
help a marriage, uh,
as you have a child
that is up all the time,
but, that said,
you know,
we have gone to therapy a lot,
and we have worked on it
and we have worked on it,
and, you know,
like, we're-- it's--
it's this great new place.
And it's, uh,
totally different,
and good,
and I think it's a good spot.
-It was a lot of work, but--
-Wow.
I-- I'm kind of amazed,
you're, like--
Like a mature human being?
You're, like, a full adult now.
Yeah. Oh, look.
That guy escaped
from Jimmy Buffet's band.
Margaritaville for life.
[Jane sniffling]
I need you to know
that it's actually okay.
Is it? Are you sure?
'Cause if even--
It's okay, it's okay.
Just sorry
that I didn't stay in contact.
I really am.
You did, you know,
in your own way.
You'd, like, DM me at 3:00 a.m.
[sobbing] You know,
you could've called,
but you didn't, so...
Get, like,
three glasses of wine in me
and then...
It's my best DMing time.
I mean, I'm--
[melancholic
guitar melody playing]
[Jane sighs]
I'm sorry.
I think it--
I think it actually
really hurt my feelings
when you ghosted me.
It was just a bad joke, too,
and I don't know when to stop.
It's okay.
I-- I feel like now that I know
your whole situation,
I actually
really respect what you did,
because you didn't run away
from your
responsibilities, so...
Yeah, now you just know
I'm half a piece of shit.
[chuckles] You're not.
No, I am.
But, uh, you know.
Thank you for understanding,
-'cause I was--
-You're not.
-You-- you would.
-No, I wouldn't.
-Really.
-You really--
-You would...
-I would not.
...'cause I know
that you're a good person,
so I know you would understand.
-No I'm not.
-You are.
You really are.
Yeah, sometimes, uh...
I wish things were different.
[chuckling] Me too.
But, you know...
[chuckles] People change, and,
um, maybe--
maybe if you really knew me,
you wouldn't even
really like me that much so...
Jane, you're still the same.
-No, I'm not, I swear to you--
-[Michael] No, that--
-that's a compliment.
-No, I-- I've--
I'm not the same person,
-I'm not.
-No, it's why I love you.
-No, please don't say that.
-You know that.
Please don't say that.
I am not joking.
-I always have.
-No.
I'm not trying
to start anything, I swear.
I'm not.
It's just...
in some other world,
some other time...
we would've been together.
Yeah, I mean, maybe, yeah.
Why'd you do that?
[both laughing]
I'm so glad I went running.
[Jane laughing]
Okay.
-Let's do it.
-[chuckling] All right.
-Okay.
-Okay?
-All right.
-Let's run away.
Right now.
If you say the word,
I'll run away with you.
[whispering] Just say it.
Let's go.
No, I can't, I can't.
-I can't do it, I can't.
-[Michael] Jane.
-Eight years ago...
-Jesus.
...I screwed up.
I regret it every day.
We were both free.
[whispering] Let's run away.
-Come on.
-I think--
[sobbing] I can't,
because I don't want you
to do that to your family.
I don't wanna be the reason
that you do that to your kids.
I don't wanna be the reason
that you leave your wife.
You're not the reason, it's me.
You're gonna regret it,
I swear,
you're gonna regret it.
A little. It doesn't--
-Oh, a little?
-It doesn't matter--
When your kids hate you,
and everyone says
that you're so terrible,
because you left your wife?
I don't wanna do that to you.
And you don't even
really know me.
I mean, it was one night
eight years ago,
I swear to you,
I'm so annoying,
you wouldn't really like me
that much if you dated me.
You can be annoying.
But you were annoying
in seventh grade
when I first met you,
when you transferred up
from Reizenstein.
[sobbing]
How do you remember that?
Because there was
a light around you
as you sat at your desk,
and I was like...
there's an angel right there.
No, no--
-And then you talked to me.
-No.
It's-- it-- it can't--
This is, like,
a fantasy projection,
and maybe
I've thought about it, okay?
-But I-- I--
-Yeah, you thought about it.
I thought about it.
We thought about it.
Okay, all right.
All right, Jesus Christ, but--
Look, I'm not gonna regret
a single thing, you said it.
It was statistically impossible
that we would be together.
Right now at this moment
we are here right now.
I don't even know
if it's real, but I hope it is.
Okay, but what-- what if
the reason
that we ran into each other
is 'cause we just
needed to see each other,
and have closure,
and just be able to walk away,
and-- and never
think about it ever again?
I've had this conversation
a thousand times with you.
I've had it so many times,
you have no idea.
-Let's go.
-I can't.
Let's finally go and do it.
No, I don't wanna
do that to you.
I-- I don't think I would
like you if you did that.
I've thought about this
so many times.
And now you're here,
and you're saying it.
You're saying everything
I ever wanted you to say,
but I can't do it.
-I have to say no, because--
-Jane, please.
-No, because there's...
-Please, please.
...something more important,
there's something
more important
than just being happy, okay?
And that's what I've realized,
so I want you to just go home.
Go home,
and look at your kids, okay?
Go home to your family.
And it'll be okay.
Just don't think about it.
All right? And I'll be okay.
And you'll be okay.
All right,
there's just some things
you have to live with, okay?
-Okay?
-[kiss smacks]
[sentimental
instrumental playing]
[Jane sobbing]
Okay. Okay.
So, when you find yourself
on a cloudy day
And all the hope
seems so far away
Put a rainbow
in your smile
And just keep on
making your own rainbows
'Cause it's never gonna rain
quite when you want it to
And the refraction
of the sun
Cannot be counted on
The rainbows
are always up to you
The rainbows
are always up to you
[phone ringing]
[Jane] Hello?
[director] Jane?
[Jane] This is she.
[director]
Before you say yes or no,
I want you to know something.
Every man
and every woman is a star.
[Jane] I can't believe
you still have my number.
[director laughing]
I never forget talent.
I have something new for you.
Something you love.
It's this afternoon.
I'll text you the address.
Oh, I don't--
Oh, um, I don't think
that I have time.
Sorry.
[director] Jane,
you're going to spend a day
hiding in your car,
an iced americano
in your hand,
wondering if you made
the right decision.
[eerie vocal music playing]
Jane.
Take off your glasses.
There are some choices
that are more honest
than others.
But there are no mistakes.
Should we expect you?
What's the role?
[director] 5:30.
And bring some flowers.
[phone beeping]
[eerie vocal music playing]
[footsteps approaching]
[door creaking closed]
[machinery clanking]
[tool whirring]
[romantic classical music
playing over TV]
[machinery clanking distantly]
[elevator banging, whirring]
[elevator dings]
[Jane 2] God gave me nothing
and he took it all.
Wait. [clears throat]
Not like that.
God gave me nothing
and then he took it all away.
God gave me nothing
and then he took it all away.
God gave me nothing.
And then he took it all away.
And then he took it all away.
[sobbing]
You gave me nothing...
and then you took it all away.
You gave me nothing.
And then you...
took it all-- [gasping]
[moaning]
[inarticulate vocalizing]
[inarticulate shouting]
Hi.
Hi.
[wheels rattling distantly]
[Jane 2] What time's your call?
-5:30.
-[Jane 2] Oh, me too.
I'm Jane.
Who are those for?
[wheels rattling]
[eerie vocal music playing]
[footsteps thumping]
[phone ringing]
Hello?
[director] We're ready.
[eerie instrumental playing]
[indistinct whispering]
[man] Shh!
[director] I'm glad you came.
Do you have questions?
Good. Grab the chair.
Move it
in the center of the room.
Sit.
Don't move or speak
unless you have an impulse to.
We want to know you.
-Thanks.
-[director laughs]
[director] Open your mouth.
And close it.
Open and stretch,
stretch your face.
Closing it.
And stretch it.
Close it and shake it out.
Good. Relax.
You don't have to
worry about your lines.
What lines?
[director] Hold out your hands.
Palms up.
And down.
And up.
And down.
And up and down,
and up and down,
and up and down, and up.
[eerie instrumental playing]
-[click]
-Ow.
-[click]
-[Jane grunts]
-[click]
-[Jane grunts]
[click]
[click]
-[click]
-[Jane grunts]
[director] Close your eyes.
Open your eyes.
Look at your hands.
[chilling instrumental playing]
Who do they belong to?
[Jane scoffs]
[director] Are you ready...
to wash yourself of yourself?
-[Jane laughing]
-Do you remember how?
I think you're full of shit.
Oh, come on.
Something real.
I want to hear your real voice.
-[Jane groans]
-[director] Oh, come on.
-[Jane groans]
-[director] Again.
-[Jane groaning]
-[director] Again.
[Jane groaning loudly]
Do you remember
the long dark stretch
before the world
became your world?
The self became yourself?
Scream!
[eerie instrumental
intensifies]
[inaudible screaming]
[screaming]
[whistling]
-[elevator dings]
-[woman speaking indistinctly]
[Jane 2] Are you trying
to mess me up?
[elevator door shuts closed]
[elevator whirring]
[boy] You're bleeding.
[eerie instrumental playing]
[elevator dings]
[elevator door creaks closed]
[Jane 2 panting]
When I tell you
to stay in the car,
it's not a suggestion,
it's a request, okay?
I expect you
to stay in the car.
You can't just go disappearing
like that, do you understand?
Do you understand me?
I can't believe this,
like you just
wanna mess things up.
[Jane] Hi. Um.
Hi, sorry, um, that's my car.
Excuse me.
Sorry! Excuse me!
Um...
-this is my car.
-This is my job.
I need you to respect that.
[Jane 1 shouting indistinctly]
I need you to--
[Jane 1 shouting indistinctly]
This is my car.
What're-- what're you doing?
Why can't you be alone
for a half hour?
I swear to God,
you're doing this on purpose.
You are trying to make things
difficult for me on purpose.
Do you hear me?
No, wait, wait!
-[Jane 2] Come back!
-[Jane 1] Oh, my God.
[distantly] What are you doing?
This is my car!
[Jane 2] This is your fault.
This is your fault!
-You did this.
-What?
Wait, no!
I have to get my daughter!
No! Wait!
No, stop! Stop!
[panting]
[eerie instrumental playing]
Where's my phone?
[panting, grunting]
[chilling vocal music playing]
[director] There's a breeze,
a self-whistling breeze,
like a mother kissing
your forehead through fever.
There's a breeze,
a self-whistling breeze...
-[Jane 1] Hello?
-...like your mother
kissing your forehead
through fever.
[footsteps thumping]
There's a breeze,
a self-whistling breeze...
[Jane 1] Hello?
Is there anyone still here?
Oh, where are you freaks?
[panting heavily]
[eerie instrumental playing]
[engine revving up]
[car whirring]
[eerie instrumental continues]
[director] Jane.
Jane.
You are here now.
You are with us.
Beautiful work.
How do you feel?
[camera zoom whirring]
[melancholic
piano melody playing]
[Jane] Oh, my God.
Oh, my God,
oh, my God, oh, my God.
Give me a hug. Big squeeze.
Oh, my gosh,
I missed you so much.
Tell me everything you did.
I wanna hear-- I wanna hear
every single thing you did.
[Molly] Well, I went
swimming in the lake.
-[Jane] Uh-huh.
-[Molly] Every day.
[Jane gasps]
-I really missed you.
-Me too.
["Hey Jane"
by Spiritualized playing]
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
You took a call,
then you ran all day
That clock goin' 110
I never said
I'd get you back again
Said "I ain't got time
to make no mistakes"
"Ain't got time
to waste my brakes"
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
You lit a fire
then you fanned the flame
They say
you got a troubled soul
I say you got it on a roll
Said you ain't got time
to change your ways
Ain't got time
to make no mistakes
With you
Show 'em what you can do
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
Ain't got a love
for you anyway
You get so tired
of hanging around
I'll meet you there
when you comin' down
Well, you got good style
and a little taste
Carved your name
right into my face
Hey Jane,
where you going today?
You broke my heart,
then you ran away
Some say
you've got a rotten soul
But I said
"Janey loves rock 'n roll"
Said you ain't got time,
you're a long-time dead
Ain't got time
to mess my head with you
Show 'em what you can do
Hey, Jane,
where you goin' today?
You hit the fast lane
right away
Got no breaks
for your rotten life
A heart like yours
is never satisfied
Said you ain't got time,
it's such a waste
You run so fast
you get no place
Hey, Jane,
where you going today?
I'll get a car for you
right away
That cop going 110
"Fast lane," Jane said,
"fast lane, faster!"
Ain't got time
to make no mistakes
Ain't got time
to waste my time with you
Hey Jane,
when you gonna die?
Live life like a butterfly
We're safe, baby,
by your side
Cheat death
on another ride
Hey Jane,
when you gonna die?
You got wings
like a butterfly
Meet death, baby,
all alone
"Sweet Jane" on the radio
Sweetheart, sweetheart
And love of my life
Sweetheart, sweet light
Sweetheart
And love of my life
Sweetheart, sweet light
Sweetheart
And love of my life
Sweetheart, sweet light
Sweetheart
And love of my life
Sweetheart, sweet light
Sweetheart
And love of my life
