WOMAN: Are you sure
you're doing it right?
WOMAN: Shush. Shush.
Is it hurting?
Oh, I can take it.
Hold still.
Just like that.
(CAMERA SNAPS)
Oh.
Oh, that is sexy.
I've nailed it.
Mm-mm.
An erotic knotting course.
That's bold even for you, Ginger.
You know I like to try new things.
And did he suggest
the course or did you?
- Mm.
- Stupid question.
Don't give me attitude, dude.
You and I are both single
at the same time for once,
and I'm being a great
role model for you.
I mean, are you sure you
should even be on the app
doing all this stuff already?
It's only been, what, a month?
Dickface was fucking women
two days after we split.
Why shouldn't I?
You know, I think I broke up with him
way, way before he broke up with me.
In my head, I was just in denial.
You don't want to, I don't know,
spend just a little bit of time
thinking about your options?
Oh, um, no.
I understand why you're
not rushing into anything.
- Ah. Mature choice.
- Oh, thank you.
But
I just want to get
out there and do it.
- Mm-hm.
- Huh.
Hm.
- Open up.
- Mmm.
OK.
- What about you?
- Mm.
How's all this, um dating
app doom and gloom going, huh?
- (LAUGHS)
- Oh, my God.
It is really dire.
I have been six months single.
Not one decent hit.
Maybe I should just quit
while I'm ahead, huh?
Mm-hm.
- OK.
- OK.
My toast.
Bring it in.
(CLEARS THROAT)
Here's to you.
Breaking the drought with someone
who can see just how golden
and awesome and legendary you are
until they find out you're insane.
(BOTH LAUGH)
No.
(PHONE TRILLS)
(MUTTERS)
Nine
Oh, fuck it.
Oh, she's hot.
Oh, it says she's vegan.
She's driving two hours to get here.
Do you reckon I should warn her?
What?
You haven't had sex for five
years due to lesbian bed death?
Fuck, no.
Technically, not five years.
You really think that I should do this?
Just only do it if you're ready.
Oh, I'm ready.
I'm ready to fuck. I'm down for it.
I mean, I am
(SHOUTS) down to fuck!
Whoo!
Oh, my God.
(VEHICLE APPROACHES)
Oh, shit.
- (KNOCKS ON DOOR)
- Hey.
- Hey, come on in.
- Hi, how are you?
- Good.
- I Sorry, I'll get the door.
It's a It's like a Japanese
erotic knotting technique.
- OK.
- Mm-hm.
God, I've never heard of shibari.
Wow.
Does that make me deeply uncool?
- Yeah, it does. Yeah.
- OK, cool.
(LAUGHS)
My best mate, um
She's into all of this
experimental stuff.
Shibari. Moving to the mountains.
I followed her up here,
and now I just live
vicariously through her, think.
- More?
- Mm. Please.
Fill it up.
My ex managed to fit our
kid into her schedule,
so I can let loose.
Well, that's good.
Mm-hm. Yeah.
Well, cheers to finding
someone on the apps
who isn't weird or disappointing.
Yeah, I mean, I, um
To be honest, I mean, fuck, I
wasn't even going to say anything,
but I think I'm a little bit drunk.
You're actually the
the first person
that I've met on the app.
What?
- Really?
- Yeah.
I've just come out of a
20-year relationship, and
Wow.
20 years. That's big.
Yeah. So, look, just to be very clear,
I'm looking for something
really light and casual.
Yeah, same.
Very light and casual.
OK. Um
I made dessert.
- You did not.
- Whackadoo. Yeah.
(LAUGHS)
It's carrot cake.
I've absolutely no idea
if it's any good, but
That is so aggressively nice of you.
Oh, you know
I like cooking.
Mm.
- Thank you.
- Mm.
And it's vegan?
Ah, it's carrot cake.
Yeah, but with eggs?
Oh, shit.
Fuck.
Oh, man. I
- I'm so
- No, no, no.
- Honestly, it happens.
- No. I'm Uh
I'm not used to the
vegan thing, and I I
You know, I swapped out the
butter and the oil, but I
The eggs. She didn't
think of the eggs. Good.
Fuck.
Oh.
Oh. I have to tell you something
before we go any further.
OK.
Sex with me can get a bit hectic.
OK.
It's just like
It's very very wet.
- I'm a
- Oh, you're a squirter.
Yeah. I'm really
I'm very down with that, so
Yeah, but but but it
is, like, water sports.
That's really OK.
(GROANS)
(GROANS, LAUGHS)
(GROANS)
(GROANS ECSTATICALLY)
You're insanely sexy.
This doesn't happen
with everyone, you know.
- Oh, that's so hot.
- (LAUGHS)
(GROANS)
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)
Hmm.
Hey. Good morning.
Hey. Um Dress?
Yeah.
I've got an appointment in the city.
- OK.
- It's a long drive.
Last night was great.
I'll message you.
(EXHALES)
(DOOR SHUTS)
(MOANS)
(VEHICLE IGNITION RUMBLES)
Fuck.
(GENTLE MUSIC)
How many litres are we talking?
I don't know. It was a lot.
I mean, I don't know if it was
a full litre, but it was a lot.
(BOTH LAUGH)
Where's it come from?
She must get dehydrated.
Yeah, probably.
Did it feel good?
Yeah, it did did feel good.
Felt pretty good to be
on top of someone again.
I wonder if they do squirting courses.
I'd like to know how it feels.
Ow. Well, you come to the right place.
You know, it doesn't happen
with everyone, apparently.
(PHONE CHIMES)
Oh Don't move. You'll ruin it.
Ooh.
- It's Lili.
- What does she say?
Can you tell me what it says?
She's sent a whole lot of squirt emojis.
You jealous?
"I can drive up on Friday night."
I don't know if I want to see her again.
Why not?
I mean, she's nice.
She's clearly into you.
What's the problem?
Oh!
- Mama says yes.
- No.
(EXCLAIMS)
LILI: Hello!
Hey.
I wasn't expecting you till 8.
I'm early.
Mmm. (CHUCKLES)
- Whoops! Oh, my God.
- (BOTH LAUGH)
(LAUGHS)
(BOTH GROAN)
(WATER TRICKLES)
(BOTH GROAN)
(GROANS ECSTATICALLY)
How does it feel to squirt like that?
Ah, it's incredible.
It's like
It's very mind, body.
Like I
I need to super turned on
and safe for it to happen.
- Oh, fuck, you feel good.
- Mmm.
Mmm
I feel so connected to you.
So Lili thought all those
photos on the fridge were my ex,
which was, you know,
an interesting thing.
This cheese is a mouth fuck.
Hey, she wants to come
up again this weekend.
Yeah. I told her that she could,
but I don't think I'll
see her again after that.
- Huh.
- That's a bums.
Was kind of hoping
you'd keep seeing her.
Why?
So that part of your life is sorted.
It doesn't have to be love.
It can just be physical, right?
Yeah, but I don't think
it's sex I'm needing.
I mean, you know, I can
get off on my own anytime.
I think that
I need other things.
Alright, so if you're
not going to carry on
then don't make her drive
all the way up here, dude.
Call her. Save her the trip.
Well, you know, she's organised a kid
and she's gunning for it, so
It sounds like you're using her.
Well, I'll tell her before we
have sex, so there's no confusion.
Yeah, sure you will.
I've been looking
forward to this all week.
Can we please have a chat
first?
Oh, OK. Um
Yeah, actually, there is something
that I've been meaning to tell you.
Oh, OK. Yeah.
Do you remember that, um that
appointment I had in the city?
Um
No, it was with a,
um a plastic surgeon.
- No, not my face.
- Right.
No, no, we're good. Um
Have you heard of the BRCA gene?
Uh, yeah, that's the cancer thing?
Um, sort of.
It's a genetic thing
that makes you more likely
to develop certain cancers,
like breast and ovarian.
And the risk sort of
climbs after a certain age.
And the only way to
prevent it is surgery
which I've decided to do.
A double mastectomy next week.
- Shit.
- Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah. It's obviously not
sunshine and rainbows,
so I don't really tell people unless
um
Well, if this is going to be a
thing, you sort of need to know.
I totally understand
if it's too weird or
No, God, no, it's not weird at all.
It's just a lot. For you, it's a lot.
Yeah. Look, I mean, I
wasn't going to tell you.
No, no, please.
Of course you should have told me.
Yeah, I guess I just
I wanted you to know that
having something to look forward
to this week has been everything.
OK.
I'm glad.
(VEHICLE DOOR SHUTS, IGNITION RUMBLES)
(PHONE BEEPS)
(OVER PHONE) Hi, it's Lili.
Can't get to the phone right now.
But leave a message after the beep.
(PHONE BEEPS)
Hey, Lili. I just heard you driving off.
Sorry, I slept through.
Listen, I can't stop thinking
about what you're going through,
and I just think that you're
going to need a hell of a lot
of support right now, and I'm
just not sure that I
can be the one to give it.
Like I said at the start, I just
I don't think I can do
anything serious right now.
I think you're really fucking great.
I just think it's probably best
if we leave things where they are.
Um Good luck with
the surgery. I mean that.
And I hope it all goes really smoothly.
(VEHICLE APPROACHES)
Sorry. What the fuck was that?
Did you just dump me on a voice message?
- What are you, 14 years old?
- No, no.
Hey, I didn't dump
you. We're not together.
- We're fucking.
- Oh, OK, cool.
You could have told me to my face.
What? I You were
Like, I was asleep and you left,
and I didn't want to ghost you.
Oh, OK. Thanks.
That's a piece of shit thing to do.
OK. I gave you an out.
If this freaked you
out so much, then why
No, no, that doesn't
freak me out at all.
Well, OK, then, what the fuck?
I said it to you in that message.
I can't support you.
I didn't ask for your support.
Cara, I have my friends
and family to support me.
OK, well, then why would you
why would you bring this to me
when we'd agreed to keep things casual?
Oh, is that what this feels like?
Yeah.
Yeah. Until all that. Yes, it did.
- That is such bullshit.
- No, we both agreed.
No, no. You clearly have
no idea how to be honest.
I'm sorry.
Fuck you.
Fuck off.
(FOOTSTEPS CRUNCH)
(IGNITION RUMBLES)
It's just I was so clear from up front.
Nothing serious. That was the contract.
- Show me where she signed.
- (CAMERA SNAPS)
Oh, and by the way, leaving
What was it? A voice note?
- That was a dick move.
- I'm not a dick.
No, you ARE a dick.
You don't HAVE a dick.
Oh, great gag, Ginge. Yeah.
Are you angry with me?
No. No.
No, I'm not angry with you.
I'm in love with you, you dumb cunt.
OK. Are you trying to
gaslight me now? Is that
Before you broke up with him,
you told me that you had feelings.
Oh. Oh, whoa. OK.
Just because you have feelings,
it doesn't mean you
have to act on them or
turn it into a whole relationship.
OK, but
I mean
Ginge, I mean, the
things that you've said
and the things that
that you've done
We've done weddings,
we've done funerals.
We've We've holidayed
together. We've
cooked with kids.
We've even fucked, for Christ's sake.
I mean, that is a whole
relationship, Ginger.
When did we fuck?
Oh, come on. Don't.
No. Was it the night that,
what, I I got drunk and I
and I threw up in Dickface's
car so I came to yours?
- Yeah. Yeah. That night. Yep.
- Mm-hm. Yeah.
But I also sprained my ankle
climbing onto the garage roof,
and then I I went home, still drunk,
and fucked Dickface in the morning.
Why
Why do you have to focus
on the one part of the story
that involves fucking you?
- Can you please get this off?
- OK. Stop, stop, stop.
- I don't want it
- Hey, hey, hey. Hey. Don't. Stop.
Shh. Hey. Hey.
Just
You're right.
You're right about us
having everything else.
OK?
I love you so much, honey.
So, so much.
Our friendship is incredibly special.
But now you're, what, saying
it doesn't mean anything
unless we make it sexual?
No. I mean
I'm saying that the reason
that it's special is because
I am giving you the whole of me.
(CRIES)
And I don't
How do I even start to
give that to somebody else
while I feel like this about you?
I don't know how to do that.
