Thanks. Good to see you.
Hugo and I are just friends. So far.

That sounds dangerous.
What about you? You paint?
I paint, and I
c.font-styleitalicFour, three, two, one!
Oops
Who are you here with?
I know, but who are you here with?
Thora or August? Or maybe both?
You were right. It did suck.
I thought I'd get a doctorate.
Okay. So why study literature?
Swim, swim, swim
Hey, wait!
Chicken.
He's not swimming.
Hugo! Save us.
I got something up my butt.
Ouch!
Oh my god
It's pretty nice.
Adam and Eve.
We were born this way, honey.
Take my shirt.
Nice.
Thanks.
Was it better in Paris?
It was different, a break.
Nah
Everyone knows? Is it weird that she?
Yeah, that's really weird.
You're both a couple of elitists.
Vera is super sweet and cute.
Cute, but maybe a bit uninteresting.
I'm a realist, I've told you that.
No, the three of us.
It is absurd, I mean
Professor?
Professor?
Is it about love or self-destruction?
Who said it can't be both?
I've also readc.font-styleitalic A Room of One's Own.
We find a basis for our own conclusions.
I think you're onto something.
Do you think that Heathcliff is free?
No, she's wrong. Heathcliff is trapped.
That's a beautiful thought.
It's pretty remarkable
What bottom line?
Those who love are never free.
Exciting stuff.
Yeah
Okay, let's move on to the sister's novel,
Charlotte Brontë'sc.font-styleitalic Jane Eyre.
No, you're right.
I can do that.
Yes, I'd love to.
It's for people at the university.
Here's the address.
It would be great if you wanted to come.
Could be a walk down memory lane.
c.font-styleitalicVive la France!
Okay, and now a kiss.
I can film and you can kiss.
Okay
What's best about Paris?
Are you kidding me?!
A two-bedroom apartment
Thanks, Stillers.
And here, look
Sleep in there? But I can sleep here.
No, no, no
No!
But you really don't.
When Jack freezes to death inc.font-styleitalic Titanic?
Is he a robot or a psychopath?
That's the question, honey
Just checking if there's a heart here.
c.font-styleitalic-Absolument.
Merci.
I don't even remember what I said.
Why do you want to study literature?
I don't know.
Well
It's hard for me to be totally present.
I keep my distance to things.
But when I'm reading or talk about books,
it's like I can be totally engaged.
I'm in the present.
Something like that
Nice.
Who gave you your first book?
She was like, "Here, read it."
A good mother. What's she doing now?
Do you have another smoke?
I don't think so, but I can check with
Yeah, we're like friends. That do stuff.
Hi. Are you coming?
Thora, you're not here to solidify a trio.
Am I like an alibi?
Are you kidding?
Is she angry?
I don't know. Run after her and check.
I don't want her walking around alone.
Thora?
You forgot your bag.
Thanks.
What do you want to do today?
I thought we could go to some exhibition.
Sure.
It's way too much for me to concentrate.
I don't know. I'm not very hungry.
It was, but not as expensive.
White wine, please. Sauvignon blanc.
And a Caesar salad, please.
Two, please.
c.font-styleitalicVoilà.
That won't fill you up.
What wine are we buying?
I just think that we're a bit too old
Can't I just treat you to a proper meal?
What?
I think we should drink to Laura and Aron.
c.font-styleitalicYou have eight new messages.
c.font-styleitalicDo I have to see it on Snap?
c.font-styleitalicAnd who are your friends?
We've been talking about going there.
Going there? To travel?
As long as we like, I guess.
Very true, Julian. Very true.
That's freedom. To be now.
Dad thinks it's a phase that will pass.
Like a cold or something?
Oh, really?
You'll be an awesome lawyer.
I just feel that maybe it's not for me.
Get down.
Sure.
You think that's a good idea?
Awesome idea. Very smart.
Go ahead.
Then I will.
I'm sorry about lunch.
I know that I'm very privileged,
and I forget that not everyone is.
I should apologize, about yesterday.
Maybe it's best if we're just friends.
What else would we be?
Exactly.
Hey! Are you ready for the club?!
Let's go. Leave that.
They only speak Swedish!
This wasn't a good idea.
It was better when it was just us.
What? What are you saying?
Are you on something?
Thora?
Thora?
Thora?
She shouldn't have left
I was fucked up all night!
What if I've killed her?!
Nothing has happened
Breathe.
There, there
Here.
August
Where have you been?
Do you know how worried I've been?
Take it easy.
What are you doing, August?
August?
Thora?
Come on, let's dance.
Dance with me.
Let's dance.
You see this?
Hugo's dancing.
Only one thing missing.
Hugo!
Come here.
I'm I'm just gonna go have a smoke.
Go ahead.
I thought you might need this.
Thanks.
Listen Did it feel a bit weird?
I understand.
Can't we just be friends?
Is that what you want?
Can't we keep our relationship simple?
And what if it's not simple?
What if it's like life in general?
