1
- Oh, you suck!
Unbelievable!
- What?
- Unbelievable!
- Unbelievable!
- on!
No, I'm just kidding!
- I didn't believe you for a second!
It's all in the wrist.
What is that?
You are the...
No?
- I'm not really good with music.
- That's not-that's not true.
- There's, like, two...
musicians that I like.
I like, um...
Jack White.
- Uh-huh, I know.
- Because he's really cool,
and he's just, like, really raw.
- No preservatives?
- No preservatives.
And I like Gil Scott-Heron.
- Who's that?
- Well, he has...
I just... It's not even
his music that I like.
I just really like his lyrics.
There's this one part of one song
where he says;
"The spirits are your parents."
And they live in your bloodstream
because they want you to keep living.
And...
they're trying to tell you shit
all the time.
And maybe if you just took a second
to listen to yourself,
you would hear them.
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
You OK'?
- I had a nightmare.
- What was it?
Running
through this tunnel and...
someone was following me.
And I was trying to run away,
and I couldn't run.
My legs were frozen.
And this man was right behind me.
I was screaming,
screaming and screaming.
I was trying to get
somebody to help me,
and I... I couldn't make a sound,
So no one was coming.
And he was right behind me.
He put his hand on my shoulder,
and I woke up.
Hello, Tina.
- Hello.
- Thank you for dropping by.
I needed the help.
They'll be here in five minutes.
- Shit!
- Hey
- Hi!
Hi!
- Hey! Where's the music?
'Hi!
- Let's get this party going!
- Happy birthday!
You look hot!
- You too!
- Oh man, don't touch it!
Man, don't touch.
That's the only thing
that's off limits, OK?
'Hi!
Hey!
And then I turn
My soul, it burns
'Cause you are grown and I'm alone
So, there I inhale the
soul of your hair
Yeah, it's still there,
the scent of a pear
Oh, how your eyes tell of those days
When all I wished was for your lips
OK, sorry!
Keep going?
Keep going.
It's awesome! Whoo!
So on this day in the blink
of your presence
I just wanna say
Happy birthday
Whoo!
- $25.
- Here you go, Lucy.
Keep the change.
- Thank you.
- Take care, Lucy!
- You too!
On! on! on!
- Hey, Anubha.
- Hey, how's it going?
- Good!
- How's the body?
- Uh, cold.
- Great! Here's your boarding pass.
- Thank you!
- There you go!
- Cool! Thanks!
- Shit, Roman, what did I tell you
about the bodies?
Wait till we're done packing
to bring them on.
- No one told me there was gonna be
soda cans.
- You didn't tell me there was gonna be
a dead body on the plane.
I can't put this on here.
It's not right. It's not respectful.
- Erik, we gotta take out the body!
- Who is it?
- Tom.
- Tom who?
- Tom with the blue pickup.
- What happened?
- He got lost.
Hey, Peter!
- How's it going?
- Good. Can I get some .303 bullets'?
- Sorry I'm late.
- You all right?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Yeah, I'll tell you later, OK?
- OK!
- Whoo!
Hey!
Ready?
You ready?
Go!
- You sure you're all right?
- Mm-hmm.
- Lucy.
What's wrong?
- I have to... | have to go.
I have to be alone.
- Where you going?
Lucy!
- Lucy!
Lucy!
Lucy!
- Tell me what's wrong.
Lucy, tell me what's wrong.
- I got accepted to biology.
- Oh, that's great.
- Is it'?
- Yeah.
When are you leaving?
- Two weeks.
- Two weeks?
- Yeah.
I have to go, Roman.
OK? He's still following me.
He's everywhere I go.
He was there today.
- Yeah.
- The only way I'm gonna get rid of him
is to get the fuck out of here!
- Yeah, I know, Lucy.
- I'll miss you.
I'll miss you a lot.
- Yeah.
- You wanna come with me?
- I can't go back south.
Why not? You could
find work or something.
I'm not going back there.
I'd rather kill myself
than go back there.
You know that.
- Well, OK.
No, I'll be back next summer.
I'm sure he'll be gone by then.
- Yeah!
You can teach me biology.
Um, just a sec.
One second.
- I can't.
- What's wrong?
- I can't. There's...
- What?
- I can't do it when I see you like that.
- What am I doing?
- You're just...
Please...
I want you to come inside me, please.
- Fuck, I can't!
I'm sorry. I'm just not...
I'm just not into it.
- I am. I am.
- I can't, OK?
- OK.
Yeah, it's me!
- Yeah.
- What do you want?
- I need a couple bottles.
- 26ers?
- 40.
- That's gonna be $300.
- $300? Are you fucking serious?
- I didn't get my shipment this week.
Come to my place at 3:00.
Upside, inside out
Livin'la vida loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin'la vida loca...
- Hey, don't drink these all in one night!
Livin' Ia vida loca
Come on
Livin' Ia vida loca
Come on
She's livin'la vida loca...
- Hello! Open up!
I know you're in there.
I'm gone in 10 days, Roman.
- Lucy.
Oh my God! Go away!
Go away!
Go away!
John, this is Emma. Come in.
- Yeah.
- We got shots fired
at the warehouse.
- I'm on it.
- You need backup?
- Backup's 3 hours away.
- All right. Have fun!
Wow! It doesn't get
any more glamorous than that.
- Hey, man!
Emma's getting calls.
Could you keep it down?
- Sorry.
- You wanna finish your rounds?
You gonna be OK?
- Yep.
- I'm gonna go watch the awards.
Wanna come?
- Uh...
I got some work to do.
- Suit yourself!
- Oh, hey, Roman.
I hear Lucy's leaving.
- Yeah, I know.
Fuck!
Do you know how much that costs?
- So, what are you gonna do about it?
- I don't know.
- Yes, you do.
- Oh, I do'?
- You're gonna let life go by
and not do a thing.
You're afraid that if you do,
you're gonna fail.
Do you know what
the Indians would tell you?
- What, the Indians?
- No, not those Indians.
The Indians from India.
They'd say you're stuck in your karma
doing the same things
over and over in a circle
and you don't know
how to get out of it.
- What the fuck do you know about India?
- I'm right, ain't I?
- You know, maybe I should shoot you down.
You're not supposed to be this close
to our houses.
- You do that, and you might as well
kill yourself.
I'm the only friend you've got.
Time for me to go now.
- You can speak to bears?
- What are you doing up?
It's late. It's cold.
- I'm playing hockey.
- Where's your brother?
What are you doing?
- Playing hockey.
- Why aren't you asleep?
- Our parents had a fight.
- All right, well, let's
get you inside, huh?
It's freezing! Come on!
I wanna
spend time with you before I go.
We only have 9 days left.
I love you.
I don't know what to do
to make you talk to me.
I don't know what to say.
- Can I come?
- Too drunk.
Tomorrow.
- No, I'm coming anyways.
- Hey! You gotta get up.
Come on. I gotta go to sleep.
Yeah, I know.
Go home, OK?
- Roman, open up!
Open the fucking door!
- Leave me alone!
- Oh, fuck off!
Talk to me, you stupid fuck!
Please talk to me!
Hello, Roman!
- Leave!!!!
- Talk to me now,
you fucking asshole!
I love you!
Please say you love me too.
- I'm done with you.
You said you were leaving,
so just leave.
The sooner,
the better for you and for me.
- Roman...
- Leave.
Leave.
Did you hear what I said?
- Yes...
- I said I want you out of my life!
I said I do not wanna see you again!
OK? Fucking leave!
Fucking leave!
We're over! Get out of here!
Fuck you, you fucking bitch!
Fuck! Leave! Leave!
- Roman?
Roman?
Are you all right?
They told me
they heard screaming and noise!
How's Lucy? ls she with you?
- Go away.
- Shit, Roman!
- Go away!
- Come on! Give me the rifle,
and we can talk.
- Just go away, all right?
Just leave me alone.
- All right, Roman.
Just stay cool.
I'll be right back.
Don't do anything stupid
before I get back, all right?
Emma, this is John.
Come in.
- Hi, John. It's Emma.
How's it going down there? Over.
- Ah, we got a broken heart with a rifle.
- Could you send a couple of beers?
- Special artillery!
- Thank you!
- All right!
- Here.
A 2-4 just for you.
Come on!
I know who you are, Roman.
You're me when I was your age.
I was angry, I was real angry,
and I drank to forget that I was angry.
But it didn't help,
because every time I drank,
I got into fights.
And every time I raised my fist
to punch in someone's face,
I saw my father's face,
'cause that's who I really wanted to punch.
Everyone's got issues
with their past, Roman.
You, me, everybody.
- You know why I moved here
in the first place?
Because I broke my ankle.
I broke my ankle...
because I kicked my dad
in the face too hard.
And I kicked my dad
in the face too hard...
because he wouldn't stop
beating on my mom and me
and I wanted to show him
that I was stronger than him...
and that he couldn't pull that shit
anymore.
- Did it work?
- I don't know.
I left before he could say a word.
He could be dead for all I know.
- John, this is Emma.
Pick up.
John, are you there?
Pick up.
- Roman?
- John, pick up.
- Yeah.
- Are you still at the house?
- Yeah.
- We have to send a rescue team
to the cliffs.
There was an emergency flare.
- Right, and when does
the next plane leave for Central?
- Takes off in about 40 minutes.
- All right.
I'm gonna gift-wrap him
so they can take him in.
- What is this?
No, no, no, no!
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
No! No, don't open that door!
Don't open that door!
I ain't taking gift-wraps!
I already told Emma.
What if he pukes?
Who's gonna clean up that shit?
- He's not gonna puke.
- He is gonna puke,
and I don't wanna clean it up!
- Look, we got a family
stranded 100 miles away,
and they're freezing to death.
I'm all alone.
You are fucking taking him!
Send them matches!
I don't care!
You're an asshole, you know that?
- Listen, you've got to go to clinic
for a couple of days, OK?
You got to get yourself clean
and your head straight.
I'll see you soon.
I'm sorry, he's not allowed
to talk to anyone at the moment.
- Um, why not?
- It's just the policy
for this type of patient.
There's really nothing I can do.
We only allow visits on Sundays
between, like, 1:00 and 4:00.
- OK, I'm not... I'm not anywhere near,
so could I...
Is there any way
I could just talk to him?
I'm his girlfriend,
and he'll wanna talk to me.
My name's Lucy.
Could you just ask him
if he wants to talk to me?
- Yeah, I'm sorry.
I completely understand the situation.
It's just how the process works.
- M m-hm m.
- For the first week, the patient...
So, that'll be $1,235, please.
- How'd you get here?
Did you use the money
you were saving to go down south?
- I just spent 1,300 bucks
to come see you.
Don't fuck it up.
They gave us 15 minutes.
Come here. I need you!
Oh, I'm gonna come!
Wait for me!
Why did you do this'?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I just...
I wanted you to be free.
- If you hurt yourself, you hurt me.
- I don't wanna hurt you.
I wanna make it up to you.
Tell me what to do to make it up to you,
and I'll do it.
- Can you help me?
Take me away.
He's still following me.
He's still chasing me.
I can't take it anymore.
Will you come south with me?
Please.
Please!
- Yes.
- There's only one problem.
- What's that?
- I spent all my money to come here
and have sex with you for 20 minutes.
We're gonna get
on our snowmobiles.
And we're gonna ride
through the mountains...
in the snow and the cold...
to somewhere that's warm and bright.
Where you'll be free
from your nightmares.
How does that happen?
- The tide gets too high.
They do this every spring.
They cross the river
to get to the other side.
One leads,
the 2nd one follows the first one,
and the 3rd one follows that 2nd one.
And, sometimes,
there's thousands of them,
and if the first one loses ground,
then it's over.
The 2nd one becomes the leader,
and he loses ground,
and the 3rd one follows him
and loses ground,
and it keeps going like that
until they all drown.
- That's fucked up!
- Yeah, I know.
What are you thinking?
- I don't know.
- OK, I have a joke for you.
Two lovers and a bear walk into a bar,
and the lovers
are carrying an octopus with them.
They set the octopus down
on the seat next to them,
and the bear sits down next to the octopus.
And the lovers say;
"This is a really special octopus,
"because he can play
any instrument on the planet
"better than anyone."
The bear's like; "Bullshit!"
So, he goes to the back of the bar,
and he grabs the guitar
that's back there.
And the octopus looks at it,
and he plays it better
than anybody's ever played
the guitar before.
So the bear's like; "All right, fine."
Oh my God!
- So, then the bear's like;
"All right, I got ya."
He goes over, and he grabs, um...
the spoons that are
at the back of the bar.
He gives it to the octopus,
and the octopus takes it
in his 8 arms and, like...
plays it better
than any spoon player.
- Wow!
- Yeah.
- Better than Mississippi Sam?
So, then...
So, then the bear's getting
really pissed off at this point,
so he goes over and grabs
the instrument, the bagpipes,
and the octopus kind of looks at them
and is like, "OK,"
and, like, grabs them,
and, like, fumbling with them,
son of, like, not quite sure,
and then just gives up
and puts them down.
And the bear goes;
"Ha! I knew you couldn't play it."
And then the octopus goes;
"Play it? I was gonna...
"I was gonna fuck it
as soon as I pulled the pyjamas off of it."
- That's the worst joke
I've ever heard in my entire life.
- It's such a good joke!
- No, it's not!
- You didn't hear it properly.
- It's 8 hours long.
- Six, OK? Six hours long.
- It's a good image, though.
- It's a great image.
- Pyjamas off!
- And its legs!
- Must take pyjamas off!
Just come over to me!
- OK!
'Mmm!
- All right!
- Oh! Oh!
- Oh! It feels so good!
- Let me see.
WOW!
These are really amazing.
- Thank you.
- You should show these.
People would totally buy 'em.
- Maybe.
- Definitely.
- To me, they look like
the colours inside your head
when you close your eyes.
Yeah!
Whoo-hoo!
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Whoo!
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Faster!
Whoo!
- Ah...
- Fuck! Fuck!
- Roman, I'm hungry.
Give me a fish.
- Ugh, goddammit!
Hey! It's OK!
- Roman, get your gun!
- No, it's OK!
- Move out of the way!
- It's OK! It's OK!
It's not OK. Give me a
fish, and it'll be OK.
You need to shut the fuck up!
- Roman, fucking move!
- Lucy, listen to me!
Do not shoot him!
- Running away is not gonna solve
the problem.
You're gonna have
to burn him out of her head.
- What the fuck are you talking about?
- What are you talking about?
Out of the way!
- Lucy, no! Put the gun down!
- You know what I'm talking about.
Her beast is still here, stuck in her head.
- Move! Move!
- Look at her screaming!
That's the beast inside of her!
- Shut up!
- Roman, move!
- Listen, it's not going to hurt you!
OK? Listen to me.
Roman!
- Trust me.
- Give me the fish!
Come on, come on!
- Here!
Go now, you stupid fuck!
- I love you too.
- Go! Eat it somewhere else.
Get out of here.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going.
- What the fuck just happened?
- Look, there's something
I have to tell you, OK?
- What?
- I can speak to bears.
You wanna head out?
- What do you mean
you can speak to bears'?
- I just can, OK?
- You have to turn around.
There's a blizzard coming!
There's a blizzard coming.
A big motherfucker.
You're gonna have to turn around.
Don't be clever.
- I'm not going back.
- Why not?
- We're not going back.
- All right.
I'm only doing this
'cause you look like you're in love.
You got GPS?
- Yeah.
- All right.
Don't mention this to anybody.
If anybody asks,
you just heard about it.
You go over this hill,
there's some military base camp.
Don't forget the condoms.
- Roman!
Roman!
Roman!
- Yeah!
- Are you OK?
- Yeah!
MY leg's jammed!
Fuck!
- You got rope?
- Yeah!
- Get it down here.
Ow! Fuck!
Aaah!
I'm gonna fight 'em off
A seven nation army
couldn't hold me...
whack
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time
right behind my back
And I'm bleeding
and I'm bleeding
And I'm bleeding
right before the Lord
- Roman! Here!
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me to go back home
Tell me another joke.
- I don't have another fucking joke.
The joke is
if you don't get your ass out of there,
I'm gonna come down and kick it.
How's that for a fucking joke?
- I like the bear joke better!
- Come on!
Hurry, Roman!
- Aw, fuck it!
OK.
My leg's free.
Just go really slow, OK?
- OK.
- Like, really, really,
"one inch at a time" slow, slow.
Oh, Jesus, fuck!
Oh, Jesus, fuck!
Aaah! Fuck! Aaah!
Ah da da da da da da
Whoo! Yeah!
And I'm bleeding
and I'm bleeding
And I'm bleeding
right before the Lord
All the words are gonna
bleed from me
And I will think no more
And the stains coming from my blood
tell me go back home
- I don't think we should be here.
- It's abandoned.
- No, we shouldn't go inside.
- Well, we don't have a choice.
Blizzard's coming.
- Hello?
Is anybody here?
No, I don't feel good about this. No.
- Hey!
- We should go.
- No, look.
If there was someone else here,
we would've seen
their snowmobile somewhere.
OK? This is the safest place
we can be right now.
You got nothing to worry about.
I'm here.
We're safe.
- Hello?
Did you hear that?
- It was the wind.
- No, the wind doesn't go
click-click-click.
That was footsteps.
- No, that was the wind
making something else
go click-click-click.
- Do you think they had, like,
nuclear bombs and missiles down here?
- Fuck yeah!
What is this place?
- Some kind of radar station.
There's someone here.
- Lucy, those are probably 10 years old.
All right'?
It was someone who got caught
in a blizzard, just like us,
that came in here for shelter,
then they left.
Come on.
This can is almost 30 years old.
- It tastes like shit!
- Yeah, it's supposed to taste like shit.
It's corned beef.
- Why is n"
Why is it still like that
after all these years?
I don't know. It's fucked up!
- Fuck!
Roman?
Roman?
- Here!
- Ready?
- Yep.
Jesus!
There it is again.
Roman?
- Yeah?
- I feel weird.
- Memo.
- I think it's the corned beef.
Roman?
Roman!
If you're joking,
it's not fucking funny!
Lucy.
I'm here.
It's just a game.
You love me, don't you?
If you love me,
come here and show it to me.
Lucy!
No. No, Lucy.
Come here.
- No! No, no!
Leave me alone!
No, I hate you!
- If you don't come here
and be a good girl...
- Leave me alone!
- the people around you will die!
- I hate you!
- And it will be your fault!
- Oh my God!
- Is that what you want?
That people die around you?
- I hate you! I hate you!
Lucy! Lucy, stop!
Hey! What are you doing?
- Get away from me!
- Come back inside!
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
- He's in there!
"Who?
" My dad!
My fucking dad! I saw him!
- Lucy, no one's in there.
Come on, it's freezing out.
Let's come back inside.
- No! I saw him, Roman!
I saw him in there!
I keep seeing him everywhere!
I see him everywhere I go!
I'm sick of this shit!
- He died 2 years ago!
Lucy, he died.
- I wanna kill him!
I wanna kill him!
I need to kill him here.
- Lucy, he is already dead, OK?
- I don't fucking care!
I don't care!
I can still see him!
Every night, I still see him,
leaning over my bed,
telling me to shut the fuck up
while he fucks me!
Every night, every time
you're in me, I feel him inside me!
Do you understand that?
Every fucking night!
I need-l need to get him out of my head
so he stops killing me, OK?
- OK! OK!
Lucy, hey!
Look, we're gonna kill him, OK?
We're gonna fucking kill him!
But right now,
we have to get you inside, OK?
- I'm not going back in there.
- Fuck!
- I'm not!
- OK. OK! Hey, look!
You're not going back inside, all right?
But you're gonna stay right here.
I'm gonna go get your gear,
and then I'm gonna fucking kill him, OK?
But you're gonna stay right here, OK?
You promise me? Promise?
I'm gonna fucking kill him, OK?
Fucking kill him!
OK.
Go ahead.
Lucy!
Lucy!
Lucy, get down!
Shhh! Shhh!
He's gone forever!
I fucking killed him!
We're gonna get out of here,
and he is never gonna
follow you again!
He's gone. He is out of your head,
and he's out of you!
He's gone!
I fucking killed him!
It's just me and you.
He's never gonna follow you again.
You think we're like the caribou
who cross the river
even if they know
they're gonna drown?
We keep following people and things.
And we know it's gonna kill us someday,
bu! we keep doing it.
Romany I don'! know.
Maybe it's a good thing, you know?
You live your life,
and you're not afraid to die.
You do what you have to do,
because most of the time,
it works out the way
it's supposed to, you know?
Then you don'! lose your ground.
You don'! lose your ground.
You cross the river,
and you grow up,
and you live free and proud,
'cause you crossed the river,
even if you were scared.
You crossed the river inside.
You walked across your fear,
because that's
the biggest river to cross.
You dive in, and the water's warm.
And I! feels good.
And the people you love
are following you,
and you follow the people you love.
And maybe, one day,
you won't make it,
but that's OK,
'cause that's how it is.
Nobody knows when the water's
gonna get too high.
You just try and hope for the best.
You just don'! give up.
That's what's important.
Imagine you're on the beach...
lying in the sand.
And it's so bright.
And the sun is the biggest...
warmest sun you've ever seen.
And you take a breath,
a deep breath,
and you breathe in the warm...
warm air.
- You saved me, Roman.
- It's not like that.
Every day I spend with you,
you save me from myself.
You showed me that there's a reason
for sticking around, you know,
that there's a point.
I love you so much, Lucy.
I've loved you from the moment
I laid eyes on you.
- I love you, Roman.
You're my hero.
You saved me from my nightmares.
- We're gonna ride south,
and you're gonna finish your major,
and I'm gonna open a garage.
And on the weekends,
we're gonna go fishing
and hunting all day long.
- I wanna have a baby.
Will you give me a baby?
- Yeah, I'm gonna give you
so many babies.
I wanna give you so many babies,
you're not gonna know what to do
with all the babies that I give you.
- Seriously?
- Yeah.
It'll be cool.
I can't think of anything
that's gonna be cooler than that.
- You look like shit!
- I'm thirsty.
- Life's funny, don't you think?
You're just 50 miles away
from your kingdom,
but at the same time,
you're a lifetime away from it.
- So, what are you?
Are you like...
a God?
- Well, I guess you can say that.
- But you're so normal.
- What do you mean?
- You drink.
You're grumpy-
- All gods have flaws.
- Really?
- Yeah, no god's perfect.
- Even Jesus?
- Even Jesus!
I have a joke.
Two lovers and a bear
walk into a bar.
The lovers sit at the bar,
and they set the octopus down
on a stool next to...
- I know that one.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
It's the only one I know.
- That's all right.
- I'll see you again very soon, Roman.
- See you soon.
I did not become
someone different
That! did not want to be
But I'm new here
Will you show me around?
No matter how far wrong you've gone
You can always turn around
Met a woman in a bar
Told her I was hard to get to know
And near about impossible to forget
She said I had an ego on me
The size of Texas
Well, I'm new here
And I forget
Does that mean big or small?
No matter how far wrong
you've gone
You can always turn around
And I'm shedding plates
like a snake
That may be crazy
But I'm the closest thing [have
To a voice of reason
Turn around, turn around,
turn around
And you may come full circle
And be new here again
Turn around, turn around,
turn around
And you may come full circle
And be new here again
Turn around, turn around,
turn around
And you may come full circle
And be new here again
Turn around,
turn around, turn around
And you may come full circle
And be new here again
Turn around, turn around,
turn around
And you may come full circle
And be new here again
