Thank you, dear.

Sorry for the inconvenience. You are an angel.

Please come in.

Until...

..I tried, but my hands are full of arthritis.

My husband has already tried to unscrew it,

but it was too hard for him.

Here, everything is here.

The new shower head and pliers, if you need them. Hmm?

SAL: I'm done. - That fast?

Well, sit down for a moment. At least have a herbal tea.

Ok.

NEIGHBOR: It's good.

I prepare it myself, it's not one of those in a sachet.

Do you want a cookie?

- Ok. - Mh.

I added lemon zest.

(BELL) Oh, excuse me just a minute.

(DOOR OPENS)

Thanks again for fixing the shower.

My nephew always promises to do it and then never does.

Have you met your new neighbors?

- Not yet. - They sure make a lot of noise.

- You heard them, right? Yes.

Well, we should point that out to him anyway.

I don't think they can keep the music that loud.

Apparently, they set fire to their old house.

We're done, the clothes are on the sofa.

Thank you.

Excuse me a minute.

Until tomorrow.

Yes, see you tomorrow.

(MELANCHOLIC MUSIC)

ZOE: Hey, I like this! It's cute, right?

How much does it cost?

Yes, I'm coming!

Turn off, Sal.

Turn off, Sal.

Were you looking at his memories?

I have to block your access tomorrow, before anyone notices.

Say you're the one watching them.

I don't look at the memories of the Absents.

I just manage them.

Are we going out for dinner tonight?

Okay, I'll cook something.

Mom's tortilla, okay?

(LOUD MUSIC)

JULIETTE: Flo? Florence!

Turn down the music!

FLO: What? JULIETTE: I said "lower"!

(LOUD MUSIC)

(RAP MUSIC DAL WALKMAN)

(DOORBELL)

Hey, sis. What's up?

- What a son of a bitch! - No, come on, dear...

No, wait...

(DOORBELL)

Hi, Clara. Can I come in?

Of course.

I know what you came to do, but it's no use, just know that.

We already talked about it after the accident.

You are not the only people who have been devastated by the accident.

- I'm sorry, I don't know what to do. EBE: You could do a lot.

Are you trying to make me feel guilty?

- No. Good.

Because I wasn't driving that fucking car.

Therapy will do you good too.

BEN: Therapy?

Do you call it that to sell it better?

EBE: No. I call it that because I think it would help you.

Would it help to spend some time with a stranger?

She wouldn't be a stranger, but just another body.

He would have Zoe's thoughts, her memories.

Let her live again.

You think we wouldn't want to revive it? Huh?

Now get out of this house.

Go away.

In a week, Aeterna will remove her memory from the archives and...

Don't touch it.

..and you will have her left...

..just this.

I leave you access to his memories.

And it's up to you to decide if Zoe is in that memory...

..o who...

..in quest'urna.

(TRAIN APPROACHING)

("ORIGIN OF THE WORLD" ERIK TRUFFAZ & MURCOF)

EBE: Another End is our second chance.

When you suffer a sudden loss,

it's as if everything remains suspended,

as if waiting for a time to untie the knots.

Another End offers us that time.

A time to prepare to say goodbye.

The match between the Absentees and the lessor bodies

it occurs following a compatibility calculation,

on the basis of which the number of possible sessions is established

and the duration of the simulation shifts.

Once the assignment has taken place, the memory of the Absents

is metabolized in the host body during sleep.

Upon awakening, memory is activated

bringing the simulation to life.

Naturally, the Landlord's consciousness remains suspended

for the entire duration of the shift.

You will find all the information you need here.

On the simulation...

..and on psychological assistance in the subsequent phase.

- I have one last thing to ask you. - Yes, please.

I might have one...

..younger?

I already explained it to you.

The assignment is based on compatibility.

It is not possible to choose the Lessor.

- Oh. - I'm sorry.

OK thank you.

SAL: Do I have to put the photos away? - Oh, no, no.

The Absents continue to see themselves as they were before.

There is no need to take anything away unless she prefers it.

Do you mind if I open the kitchen doors?

You're welcome, yes.

I moved some objects.

I don't know, do I have to put them back exactly where they were?

Again, it's up to you to decide.

After the construction of the bridge memory,

his wife will be awakened in the hospital.

For her it will be like opening her eyes after being in a long coma.

Sorry, it's for insurance.

- What does "bridge memory" mean? The memory of the rescue.

It serves to make the awakening a little more plausible.

By the way, can you come with me?

Is this what he was wearing?

Yes.

Ok. We're done.

Don't forget your wife's contact list.

And let us know if there are any people missing to notify,

in case his wife happens to meet someone she knows.

She was not my wife.

We weren't married.

Ok. Anyway, if anyone comes to mind,

add it to the list,

so we can warn him about the simulation.

Ok.

Thank you.

PARAMEDIC: It'll only take a few minutes.

Once there, she will be sedated again.

And we will prepare for the second phase of awakening,

which will happen in the hospital. - Ok.

Remember that nothing should make the Absent One understand that he is deceased.

Not a word about it, no hesitation in the eyes,

no uncertainty in expression.

If you feel sick or something doesn't work,

look away and try to recover.

And when we get there, step away from the stretcher.

Because, in the awakening phase,

a minimal uncertainty can compromise the simulation.

Forever.

Ok.

Are you ready?

Yes. Yes.

Let's get started.

Thank you.

(DOORS CLOSE)

(SIREN)

Fifteen seconds.

Five seconds.

Don't worry, everything's fine.

- Cow. - Cow.

ZOE: Are you okay? - Yes, everything is fine.

PARAMEDIC: Do you remember his name?

Zoe... Zoe Stern.

PARAMEDIC: Do you remember where you live? ZOE: 105 Pinecone Street.

PARAMEDIC: And where were you going?

All'Atlantic, credo.

I'm fine. I'm fine.

It will all be fine.

Ok.

Where are you going?

Sorry. I... I can't.

- Of course you can. Sorry, I'm sorry, I can't.

There are groups that can help you.

I don't want to. Leave her here, don't take her home.

Compatibility is very good.

We can keep her awake all day.

She is not Zoe.

She's... I don't know, she's someone else, I don't know who she is. What's her name?

But who cares what it's called!

She's the kind of person who doesn't remember anything when she comes home.

Until she goes to sleep she is Zoe through and through.

- It's a miracle, Sal! - No, I can't do it. No.

No, don't bring it home to me.

And please, take off that dress. Please.

(LOUD MUSIC)

- Hello. - Hello.

Can you turn down the music, please?

- Oh, sorry, my daughter. She... KARL: Who is she?

It's the neighbor, don't worry.

- We need to turn the music down. Let him in.

- It's late. - We've woken him up now.

I don't think this is a good idea.

You go tell Flo to turn down the music.

- Oh, sorry. - Are you sure? - Okay? Go.

Hello. Um, sorry to bother you.

Please. Why don't you take a seat?

Oh, no, no. No, really.

I'll buy you something to drink, so we can get to know each other. You're welcome.

Ok.

Um... What do you prefer? A beer or a Coke?

- Um... A beer. Thanks. - Okay.

FLO: Mom, go away! JULIETTE: Don't talk to me like that.

I already told you you're not going out tonight!

FLO: Mom, you can't ground me forever!

JULIETTE: Put your pajamas back on and go back to bed!

FLO: Ok! But first you have to leave my room!

Get out of my room.

Get out, get out, get out of my room!

Mom, get out of my room.

(THUMP AND SHATTERED GLASS)

FLO: Get out of my room.

Get out of my room.

(LOUD MUSIC CONTINUES)

Excuse me, could you possibly help me?

I can't turn it off.

JULIETTE: Oh, thank goodness.

There was a lot of smoke.

This...

You couldn't see anything. And...

They...

She still doesn't know it was her fault.

I am sorry.

He thinks I don't know he smokes.

How is this possible?

Synchronization. I think that's what they call it.

When two Absent Ones are awakened together.

That's how it works.

You know, my husband looks at her and...

..sees Flo exactly as she was before. And vice versa.

It's really amazing. They thought of everything.

No, but how does she do it?

How... how can he do this?

Well, a body is just a body, after all, right?

In...

..over time...

..you get used to it.

Come on, darling, let's lie down nicely.

Come on, love. Here, like this.

Oh yeah. Maybe if he could teach me how to turn that damn thing off,

so next time we won't disturb her.

Yes.

(BELL) Oh, well... Oh my God.

Here they are.

I wish I could do that too.

What does this mean? I don't understand.

See her. As she was before.

This is not possible.

Look at that image in the center.

What do you see?

A duck.

DOYLE: What if I told you it's a rabbit instead?

Can you see it?

SAL: Oh, yes.

That's a bistable image.

I put it here, in my study,

because it helps me explain how our brain works,

how what we know influences what we perceive.

Now, she saw a duck.

But when I told her it was a rabbit,

his brain received this information,

this new awareness, if you will.

And she managed to see the rabbit right away.

The truth is that the image is both things,

but we are only able to see one or the other.

Now, try to fix it.

She will never see both figures at the same time.

Our brain chooses what to see...

..based on what he knows.

And he does this continuously.

That's a good explanation, but...

..I still want to see it as it was before.

And I'm explaining to her that this is not possible.

Because, unlike his neighbor and his daughter,

she knows her wife is dead.

And he would know it even if he saw it differently.

We can correct our perception of an image.

It's a photo editing game, but only if that doesn't conflict with...

..with something of which the subject is conscious and aware.

In short, we can show her a rabbit,

but only if she doesn't know it might be a duck.

This is why the Absentees must never know

of being deceased.

If they realize it...

..it becomes impossible for them to recognize themselves in another body.

When they go to sleep,

the metabolization process can no longer be reactivated.

Basically, when they fall asleep...

..they die.

Forever.

She must make the effort to believe the simulation.

I tried.

- I can't do it. - Then argue with her.

Arguing helps activate impressions and memories

which can be unpleasant, even violent,

but highly recognizable.

Why would I want to argue with her?

Call her back and then...

What's the point?

Because it's the fastest way to get in touch.

He's in the bedroom.

He should wake up in a few minutes.

- Thank you. - Good.

See you later.

Sure, yes.

(DOOR OPENS AND FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)

Did you sleep on the couch?

Yes.

Have you been awake for a long time?

No.

What's up?

Nothing.

Do you feel like doing something today?

Yes, I was thinking of writing a little and then...

..if you like, we can go and look at some houses.

If you're tired, let's stay here and watch a movie.

- Projected. - Okay.

Ok, what?

Okay, a movie. Yes, okay.

Are you writing the book?

Yes.

And how's it going?

Well.

Basically, I finished the part about sub-Saharan Africa.

But there are very few official sources,

so I have to read everything, religious texts and judicial documents.

But it's very interesting, because...

I think that this way I can see so many different things that...

If you're not interested, don't ask.

Don't make me talk to myself like an idiot.

No, I'm listening to you.

I didn't feed him yesterday, so...

I was listening.

I finished.

But I was listening to you.

And I said I'm done.

(SLAM THE DOOR)

Do you really have to come in?

I don't know... What... what's happening?

So, why? I was listening to you.

Sub-Saharan Africa, the different sources...

And suddenly you... I don't know, you got pissed.

Why? What's happening?

It happens that only you exist.

Why do you say that now?

Because you don't care what I do or how I feel.

- How do you feel? - Fuck you.

Hello, Zoe. Hello, Dai.

I asked you how you feel and you tell me to fuck off?

Don't touch me.

Is it about the house? Do you want to go see that house?

I don't give a shit about the house, or the camper, or Iceland,

or some bullshit invented to pretend nothing happened.

These are all things decided together.

- Seriously? - Yes.

Nothing was decided together. You decided.

Oh, so you were pretending? And now you're playing the victim.

I play the victim? I play the victim, damn it!

Zoe, come on. Tell me what's wrong.

Ok, I'm listening.

We've talked about this a thousand times.

Let's talk about it again. - You can go out.

We've already talked about this. - Please.

Please tell me what's wrong.

Get out! - Okay? Tell me.

You already know that, Sal.

And if you don't know that, you're just an asshole!

SAL: Sorry.

What's up?

(LAUGHTER)

SAL: No, no, don't try that. You know I win.

- Oh, yeah? You win? - You know I win, you know.

- Let's see, let's see. - Ready? - Yes.

Ok. One, two...

(SCREAMS AND LAUGHTER)

How did it go?

Very good.

For a moment, I believed it.

Yes.

This is how it works.

Very quietly.

Even if it's a little tall, right?

I am sorry.

For what?

Why do you have to look after me?

so that I don't do any more stupid things.

I used to be the one looking after you.

Oh, yes, of course.

I always made you believe it.

But that's not the truth.

If it wasn't for me, you'd still be with the saxophone guy.

Well, who knows... If I hadn't threatened him,

maybe we would have stayed together a little longer.

But he treated you so badly. You were always crying.

And then you were too little.

I was 14. My friends were already fucking.

Yes, yes, that's true. I know, yes.

What a pig! Don't tell me that.

No, what are you doing? No.

Wait...

Here you are.

Hate.

Finally a smile.

- It had to be immortalized. - Mhm.

Don't waste time.

Take advantage of these moments to be happy with her.

To prepare you to say goodbye to her.

ZOE: Quick, quick.

- They're for both of us, okay? - Yes.

I'm so hungry.

I'm a drug. It must be the glutamate.

Mmm, how good!

Ok.

Are you ready?

For what?

- No. - Yes.

But it's over there. - You shouldn't have put it there.

"In eye" you watch your documentaries. Go.

- Ok. - Eh.

Ok.

- Is that okay? - Yes, that's fine.

Here you are.

The lights.

Oh, yes.

- And the tent. - Yes, yes, yes.

("IRIS" WIM MERTENS)

- Do you want to get drunk tonight? - Yes.

("IRIS" WIM MERTENS CONTINUES)

They had legs like freshwater shrimp.

- What are they called? - Corn on the cob, I think.

No, the corn cobs are salt water

and they are the ones I made for you this evening.

That time, however, I had found some lake ones

which were similar to small lobsters.

SAL: Maybe they're called...

Oh well, it doesn't matter what they're called.

In any case... they were incredibly fresh.

Some were still moving.

So I took two kilos, because we had guests.

Oh, no, no, no, don't tell us about it while we're eating.

No, no, tell me. Come on, I want to hear it.

Anyway, I put them in the fridge

and I took them out later to cook them in the evening.

They had stopped moving.

So I took the envelope, shook it just to be sure...

Nothing.

So I put the pan on the stove, I heat it up well

and I start throwing them in.

And they... imagine, they start running.

- No, no, no. - They were all alive, all alive.

And they ran like crazy over the hot pan.

- A horror scene! - Yes, yes.

And then Mom had the brilliant idea

to throw them on the ground to try to save them

and they started running everywhere,

under the furniture, in the bookcase.

And we found them all over the house, dead.

We found one under the washing machine,

do you remember? - Yes.

- It had been two weeks. I can imagine the smell.

Yes, yes, I have been a vegetarian ever since.

You recovered quickly, though.

Yes, I recovered. You also became a vegetarian with me.

- Yes. Yes, I confess. CLARA: Oh, and how did he force you?

With lots of tofu.

He made me swallow so much tofu. Over and over again.

But then you became a real expert.

You wrote that it is precisely because of livestock farming

the history of humanity has been changed.

- I read the first chapter. CLARA: Oh, a new quest?

Ah-ha.

On how nutrition affects people's pathologies

in different parts of the world, right?

- Yes. When did you read it? - While you were sleeping.

Yes.

In practice, in short, it tells the story of how...

It's very beautiful, it's very beautiful. It tells how...

..when Europeans arrived in America,

they exterminated entire indigenous peoples

and not the other way around.

CLARA: And what does nutrition have to do with it?

Well, there's this theory that fascinates me.

He argues that the domestication of animals

helped Europeans develop all sorts of...

..resistance to germs... and... diseases.

So when they came to America,

they were a kind of bacteriological bomb.

CLARA: Speaking of bacteriological bombs,

Do you know the latest municipal ordinance? - No.

I would like to read it.

Your book.

Yes, certainly.

I should finish it in a couple of months, so it goes to press in the spring.

Now, I was saying. Even if it's not finished.

Ok.

Oh, you're not eating anything. Do you want to end up like the Indians?

- What? You can't say that. - What is it? Why not?

- He can't say. - Here, eat.

Leave her alone.

- Okay. - Not okay.

I'll give you some more.

CLARA: So, see you soon. - Okay. Bye, bye. Thanks. - Bye.

SAL: Hello, Samson.

- Oh. - Hello.

When do you think you'll be back? (DOG BARKING)

How many times do you want to see us this week?

But what's wrong with Samson?

CLARA: Samson, stop it!

Are you trying to tell me what's wrong?

There's nothing wrong.

Is it for the tests you have to do?

Yes.

It will all be fine.

It will all be fine.

- I'm going to look for Mom. - Okay.

HI.

DOYLE: We call it a "farewell ceremony."

The essential thing is to take advantage of this last meeting.

Clarify what has not been addressed.

Or say what we failed to say

before letting your loved one go.

DOYLE: Many reproduce the actual moment of loss.

Only to have to tell her she's dead?

I realize this may seem like a daunting task.

but I can assure you...

..that there is no equally effective therapy.

No.

SAL: No, I don't care.

I don't care how therapeutic it is,

I don't want to do it.

DOYLE: I understand.

Sal, it may seem to you that you are causing the death of your wife,

but unfortunately... his wife is no longer alive.

Another End is just a simulation.

The pain must still be addressed.

Another End does not try to deny mourning,

but it is the best tool to process it,

with the only person we would want to do it with.

I'm just asking for more time.

I'm sorry, the established protocol is really very rigid.

My sister said that his compatibility is very high.

Excuse me, who is your sister?

No. No, it doesn't matter.

I need more time.

It was supposed to be the last meeting.

Yes, but I feel like I need to see it again.

I don't know, it's like... like I've wasted too much time.

No. It doesn't work that way.

The number of meetings is established in advance.

Yes, but what do I care what the psychiatrist says?

The stages of mourning, the ceremony, and all that, right?

You put me in difficulty.

You should never have mentioned my name.

I didn't mention your name.

Oh, no? - No.

But do you think it was difficult to connect us?

The limits are tied to the body of the Lessors.

They can't be committed for so long, it's risky.

And can't you do it a couple more times?

I try to transfer her into someone else's body.

I want it to be her.

I will try to speak to the Landlady.

ZOE: Where are you at?

I'm almost ready. Yes.

- Oh. Sorry. - Oh, sorry. Hurry up.

("DON'T FORGET" DEAN MARTIN PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND)

- Weren't we supposed to hurry? - Yes, but there's something to do first.

Cocktails cost a fortune at the Atlantic and are watered down.

And you only dance when you're drunk, so...

- Mm-mh-mh. - Oh, yes, yes.

You didn't tell me we were celebrating.

Nothing.

- Will you button me up? - Yes.

But that's what you said: "Tonight we celebrate."

Yes.

But, you know, we... we celebrate the fact that we're together.

That's all.

You're getting older.

This dress has gotten shorter.

I feel dizzy.

Alone.

Yes, maybe we overdid it a bit with the whiskey.

You just recovered from the accident.

Lean on.

(DOORBELL)

("NO. 22" MODERATE IN BACKGROUND)

("ORIGIN OF THE WORLD" ERIK TRUFFAZ & MURCOF)

Where.

I understand that you love your brother,

but what you are doing is profoundly wrong.

- You've already told me that. - Yes, I've already told you, that's true.

Please don't make me tell anyone else.

And don't force me.

You think I don't know what you did for your mother.

Nobody here has a clear conscience.

But there are some limits to be observed.

That we both got over.

The truth is that this story about it being therapeutic

it's just bullshit.

And if you could...

..and if it did not require the destruction of another life,

we would give everyone the chance to survive death.

Forever.

("PROFESSIONAL LOVING" EMIKA IN SOTTOFONDO)

What do you like?

Shall I walk you over there so you can choose?

- I'm looking for someone. - Ah.

You are one of those who fall in love.

I saw her coming. She's very tall and...

..he has hair like... like yours.

("NOBODY ELSE" LOW ROAR IN SOTTOFONDO)

Have you slept on the couch yet?

Yes.

It's not good for you, you know?

I know.

Oh, I feel broken too. What did you put in my glass?

Everything hurts.

How exactly do you feel?

Tired.

Because I don't sleep well. I have very strange dreams.

- Strangers, how? - Mhm.

I don't remember practically anything specific.

I do not know.

Could be...

Well, then don't say that you have very strange dreams.

I was just saying. What's the harm?

Yes, you say you're tired because you have very strange dreams,

but you don't remember practically anything. So, I mean... it's weird.

Maybe you're tired for some other reason.

For what? Because you sleep on the couch and not with me.

No, I'm just saying that if you're tired and you say you have very strange dreams...

Listen, let's not ruin our day, okay?

When do we call the housing agency?

No, it's no use. It's been sold.

- No! - Yes.

What... What is that?

Ah. I hadn't noticed.

How long have you had it?

I told you I didn't notice, so I don't know.

- Let me see. - It's nothing.

I must have crashed somewhere and didn't notice.

- Well... - Wait.

- Does it hurt? - What are you doing? No, I'm fine.

No?

Sometimes, when... Maybe because of the accident, you know,

they must have... I don't know...

- Maybe there's something... - Sal, I'm fine. I'm fine.

- Doesn't anything hurt? - No, I'm fine.

Ok, ok, ok.

EBE: He dreamed of Zoe's death.

So what?

Enough, Sal.

I know you've seen it. Landlords are geolocated.

E' l'Atlantic.

It's trendy. It's normal for a girl to go there to dance.

- It was a coincidence. - No.

It has nothing to do with the case.

It's the feelings that lead you one way or another.

And they are called "sensations" because they have to do with the senses,

not with the case.

Sal, I can't help you anymore. I can't make her come back.

You take care of the assignments.

You choose the Landlords, you plan,

you decide how long, how many shifts.

Yes, of course, but I do it by following the rules.

The rules...

The rules are not the problem. And you know it.

And what's the problem?

The problem is that you...

..you want me to feel bad.

You want me to feel bad so you can hear me better.

To feel less alone. - You're talking nonsense.

Yes, yes, I'm saying crazy things because I'm...

..I'm confused, I'm... I don't know, I'm scared.

EBE: One last time.

But don't ask me anything else.

Never again.

I understood something.

That house was really nice because it had parquet floors.

I realized how important parquet is.

Did you like it?

Yes, to me, because it was close to a school.

Do you want to talk about it again?

I don't have much time left, you know.

Don't say that.

I may not say it, but that won't make it any less true.

I know you're scared.

But you're afraid of everything.

I'm not afraid anymore.

You don't know how much...

..I wish I had done things differently.

I want you to know that.

In my opinion, you will be a wonderful father.

You too.

Me too? A beautiful father?

- Why not? Yes, yes, why not? Yes.

- We exchange. Sure.

I... Well, I did it first with my husband.

Hate.

It was awful, it was so...

I knew I needed him to make it.

So we... we huddled together and...

..crying a lot and for a long time, and just waiting for Flo...

..my daughter...

..and...

..it didn't go...

..it didn't go as I imagined.

And when she was told, she didn't want to believe it.

He kept repeating, “Why do you say that? It’s not true.”

"But I'm here, right here!"

Yes... it stung the skin.

"I... I'm here. What does that mean?"

"What the fuck does that mean?"

I believe...

..for some reason, I thought that...

..they would have fallen asleep together, but in the end...

..Karl gave in first and left me with...

..with Flo for a long time.

I would have...

..I should have been able to comfort her.

Instead I ended up...

..just say, "Don't sleep."

"Please, don't sleep yet."

Excuse me.

- Thank you. JULIETTE: Sorry.

DOYLE: Thank you for your testimony.

She was very good.

As he continues to deal with their absence

and the pain that accompanies it,

Is there anyone else who wants to share their experience?

No one? No? Ok.

These days, I would like you all to

you chose an object...

..that reminds you of your Absent One.

And then try to deprive you of it.

It's a small but important gesture.

I would like a private meeting, please.

The numbers under the photos indicate which room you can find them in.

("MAGPIE" PIERO MESSINA IN THE BACKGROUND)

Why did you cry?

Didn't you like it?

My wife left me.

I am sorry.

If you want...

..we can go to my house, when I'm finished.

There's a bathroom there, if you need it.

These... were offices.

Now they are occupied, they live there... the girls from the club.

What's up?

Don't you feel like it?

What do you want?

I don't know.

I just want to be here. How much do you want?

- Just to... Not fuck?

Too.

I want to sleep now, go away.

Go away.

- Please. - Yes.

HI.

Are you some kind of maniac?

No.

But I'm sure you see quite a few here.

Apparently they love getting drunk together.

She's dead.

My wife.

He didn't leave me.

I felt...

..I'm sure you feel very alone.

But if you want advice, you need a friend...

..not a whore.

I can help you.

What are you talking about?

I saw the origami in your apartment.

- Yes? - Yes.

I'm a Landlord. So?

Origami is for customers, not for Landlords.

What the fuck do you want?

- Help you. - Yes?

- My sister works for Aeterna. - Really?

I have a cousin who works there, but a sister is... much better.

If money is a problem, you don't have to worry.

How did it help you?

Yes, because you look like one of those idiots

who want to see their loved one again in another body.

What did you say to her? "Hey, honey, I'm home."

"Guess what? You're dead."

And now it's all solved.

No.

- No no.

I don't need your money.

So why are you a Landlord?

Because I don't have the balls to kill myself.

(KNOCKING AT THE DOOR)

Who is?

SAL: It's me.

But you don't know my name.

Go away.

I got food from the Chinese place.

I hate Chinese.

Yes, me too.

I don't like it that much either.

HI.

I came to apologize.

Will you let me in?

I don't feel like staying at home, I'll take my jacket.

My name is Sal.

Ava.

Let's go.

SAL: Do you do it often?

AVA: No, once in a while.

I just finished and here I am again with too much time to live.

I'm waiting for a new assignment.

Another Prince Charming who puts me to sleep with a kiss,

another desperate Aeterna customer.

Excuse me.

Why do you think it's so bad?

Do you have children?

- There wasn't time. - You mean you didn't want them?

I... I didn't have time.

Let's eat.

Mh-mh.

It's not that bad.

It must be because of all the glutamate they put in it.

Or maybe... I'm hungry.

Ok, let's see the fortune cookie.

What does he say?

"Under the cherry tree, the petals cover everything."

"Even pickled fish and soup."

It's a poem. Yes, it's poems, it's like a haiku.

I've never come across a poem about pickles before.

Yes.

AVA: I wouldn't have anything to say to him.

AND'...

..easier with adults.

Because they talk.

But the children, I...

You think they're special and...

..they all say the same things, instead.

I just want to hear back...

..its scent.

Its scent still.

Until you have children, you don't know how important it is...

..the perfume.

As.

AVA: The memories are different than I imagined.

Did you imagine them with... music, like in the movies?

No.

It's just that they're very simple.

They look like forgotten cameras left on.

I saw my wife's memories one day.

I am here?

No. My sister works for Aeterna, I told you.

How did you feel?

Mhm...

If anyone saw my memories...

And for you?

No, it makes no difference to me, I think.

You would see lots of shoes.

- Shoes? - Yes.

Yes, because...

..of all the important moments,

I only remember the shoes of those who were close to me.

Come...

..those blue tennis shoes on the sand,

when I realized I was about to make love for the first time.

Or of the high ones...

..dark purple heels of a girl,

when he told me he was fucking someone else.

Or my sister's slippers, when our mother died.

You know, the shoes from when...

..when you can't look people in the eye.

I told you you were some kind of maniac.

Do you want to come to my house?

Do you have enough money not to get laid?

("DON'T FORGET" DEAN MARTIN PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND)

I have a turtle.

His name is Ray.

But I don't know where it is.

Maybe she went into hibernation somewhere,

because I can't find it. I've looked everywhere.

It's so weird.

The turtle?

No.

Being here with you.

Do you remember our first meeting?

Of course.

When you threw me out of your house.

I was scared.

I don't take clients home. I never let anyone near me.

But it was right.

I looked like some kind of maniac.

But you weren't acting like a maniac.

So why were you afraid?

Why...

..I wanted to sleep with you.

That's why I kicked you out.

I have to go to the bathroom.

It was my wife's, we bought it at a flea market.

Along with some cassettes.

He listened to music with that.

Did your wife die in a car accident?

We were... going dancing.

We had already had a few drinks at home.

That's how we did it.

I was driving.

I will never be able to forgive myself for this.

I saw it.

In a dream, while I was working as a Landlord.

I am sorry.

I was supposed to die too.

- Can I help you? - I'm a Landlord,

I need to see the person in charge of my assignment.

- Do you know who he is? - Ebe Ruiz.

- Her name? Ava Adams.

- Sixth floor. - Thank you.

Hmm...

I lost a ring.

- Grandma's ring. - Yes, come, come.

She came to my office. She knows everything.

Do you want to report us?

No, he won't.

Let's see if it's down here.

Can you help me? Look the other way.

Thank you for being with me these days.

Talk to her.

No, no, I don't know, it doesn't make sense.

No, that's not true.

Yesterday, when she came, she surprised me.

The things he told me...

It made me realize that maybe I did it all wrong.

Listen to me for once in your life.

Go talk to her.

Will you promise me?

And don't you worry about me.

No.

You are the one who doesn't have to worry about me.

Or.

HI.

I am sorry.

Again.

I lied to you and... I'm sorry.

I couldn't stop, it was stronger than me.

Were you also lying when you said you wanted children?

Or did you just say that because you knew it was impossible?

Zoe?

That woman...

..at the Landlady...

..when he met your sister and found out the truth,

she offered to... wake me up.

One last time.

Why?

Why are you here?

To say goodbye to you.

And bring you back.

With me.

You don't have to feel...

..at fault. Of nothing.

Because in that accident no one was saved.

Your sister tried so many times...

..but she never got to say goodbye to you.

ZOE: Hey, I'm scared.

SAL: I'm here, with you.

ZOE: Where?
