In other entertainment news,

it's been 10 years
since the hit film

Don't Delete the Kisses
had its Welsh premiere.

Set in the Black Mountains
near Cardiff,

this hit rom-com
introduced us to

Mike and Michelle,
the young American lovebirds

played by Hollywood stars
Jackson Roberts

and Jessica Riley.

Her and I
are such good friends,

the hardest part is like,
making it seem realistic

and romantic
when we're like pals.

Now they're back in town.

Both actors are due
to visit Cardiff

for the 10-year fan convention.

Also attending
with heartthrob Jackson

is his wife
and the director of the movie,

Andrea Finney.

He's as nice as he seems.

You'll see when he comes by.
He's lovely.

And the writer
of the film, Nigel Thomas.

Thanks so much for stopping

-to talk to us, Nigel.
-Cheers. Thanks very much.

And please, say hello to Andrea.

-She's such a phenomenal--
-I will.

- Director.
- Oh, yeah, there she is.

-She's brilliant!
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

-We absolutely love her.
-Yeah. See?

It's just love everywhere.

After 10 years,

we can't wait to hear
what they've all been up to.

Did you ever get a schedule
for today?

Well, it's--
it's pretty straightforward.

You're gonna do panel,
and pictures with the fans,

and a meet and greet,
and then--

Oh, and I thought we could do
a little bit of a re-enactment

of some of the scenes
in the film.

Some-- some of the scenes,

like the one with the light--
the light post scene.

Do you remember Mike's accent?

Yeah.

Fucking, fucking.

I don't fucking know.

Fucking, fucking,
fucking, fucking.

'Cause I would say like,

- "Fucking."
- Yeah.

But he's like,
"Fucking, fucking.

Hey, you fucking listening?

Mm."

Yeah, maybe try-- try it
with the love behind it

instead of the anger.

Uh, the-- the vowels are, ugh.

Yeah, I'll get it.
I'll get it. Fucking.

But don't do that thing
where you overthink it

'cause then you'll just
get in your head.

Fucking.

I wonder if those guys
have gotten here yet.

Thank you very much.

Ah.

Have a good one.

Thank you. Ah.

Hello.

-Come here.
-Aw.

-What, what?
-Hi!

I wasn't dead.

I wasn't expecting you
to be here.

No, I-- No, I was--

I always knew
I was gonna come here.

I was nervous and all.
That's why.

Wait, but you said you thought
you weren't invited.

-Yeah, but--
-Of course, they called you.

Yeah, no.

-I was joking.
-Oh.

-No, I was joking.
-You were--

When I said I was--

I was joking when I said,
"Oh, I'm--

Will I be invited?"

I-- I'm like,
"Yeah, I would hope so."

I mean, I know I'm not you.

I'm not you, but I'm still--

I'm the poster.

-I mean--
-Yeah.

Oh my God.

That's really quite impressive.
So, this is real?

- It's real.
- Real, hmm.

Well, it looks very real.

- I can't go--
- Like--

Can't go back now.

It's like a flashback
or something.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, but I--

Let's not-- why don't we--

Let's not get into all this
right now,

like there are like,
fans here.

It's like the big weekend.

I don't wanna--
We don't have to--

It's a big weekend for us, too,
you know?

Like we--

We'll find our moments
to have together

inside of the madness
of the circus.

It'll be good.

Yeah.

- Yeah.
- You know?

No, you're right.

- It is, it's a reset.
- Yeah.

- And it's gonna be great.
- This is gonna be--

It's gonna be really great.

I'm nervous.
I'm excited.

- Are you?
- Yeah.

And then there's
all these fans here.

This is like a huge,
huge thing.

Well, you're gonna
be wonderful.

I love you.

I love you.

What?

What?

What are you looking at?

No, I just--

There's you know, there's
some fans around and stuff.

And I don't wanna break
the illusion,

you know what I mean?
I'm gonna keep it--

- The illusion?
- Yeah.

-If they know-- if they knew--
-There is no illusion.

Like, the illusion like, like,
like, uh, like, like the--

The Beatles.

The Beatles,
they-- they were all married,

but you never like
saw them out there married.

Did they add you to the panels?

Yeah, they did,
but it was fucking ridiculous.

Um, guys?

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Hi.
- Hey.

-Oh!
-Hi. Here we are!

-Hi!
-Nice to see you.

-How you doing?
-Yeah, doing good.

-Oh.
-We're doing good.

-We got in yesterday.
-It's so good to see you.

-You too.
-You haven't changed a bit.

-Your wife--
-Oh, please,

I do feel like there's
a little more crow's feet.

-Looking very fresh. Lovely.
-Thanks. Thanks.

-You know, I'm excited.
-Yeah.

-This is-- this is crazy.
-Um, no, I-- I don't--

-This is crazy.
-Really know what we're doing.

There's uh,
multiple fan events.

- Yeah.
- There's a panel, there's--

No, I mean, I know that,

but I just mean cosmically,
I don't really know.

-Oh, cosmic-- Cosmically?
-Yeah.

-Yeah. That really-- yeah.
-Hell if I know.

Yes.

I'm-- I'm-- I'm um, I'm excited.

There's gonna be
a lot of people, I think.

It's so good to see you.

Thank you.

You look gorgeous.

It's-- it's--

And exactly the same.

That's not true.

- Look at you!
- Oh.

Like a baby's up there.

You're still a baby.

-Some little nibbles--
-Okay.

Other things which are um,
being outright rejected.

Just the life of a writer.

-That's how it goes.
-Yeah, yeah.

But I want to talk to you
about something--

'Cause she's got something
she's working on right now.

We're hoping to do a sequel.

-You are?
-We are.

I mean, the 10-year anniversary,
the sequel,

how special would that be,
you know?

Are they try-- are they trying
to keep track

of how many people are
coming to see if we do it or--

Uh, yeah, I'm--
I'm not quite sure.

I'm-- I'm still trying
to get a hold of Jerry

to see what's happening,
but um,

but by the end of this weekend,
you know,

I'm hoping that we'll have
an idea of what we want to do.

I was thinking sort of like
an anti-romantic comedy,

where we kind of get together,

a little bit
of Lost in Translation,

where we-- we--

Anti?

Yeah, just like
an anti-romantic--

-Weird.
-Yeah, but I thought--

-You're hearing what I'm saying?
-Brother, well, yes.

You're-- you're gonna--
okay, you're, you're hearing it.

-Yeah. Why?
-Great. I don't know.

-Yeah.
-I-- I was looking in your eyes.

I-- I couldn't tell if you
were actually listening or not.

-Righto.

Good to see you two

Um, could be Weintraub.

'Cause I'm part of the--
the film.

It's the Don't Delete
the Kisses , um--

- Oh, I'm so sorry.
- Event here.

-That's all right. It's okay.
-I need to take you downstairs.

-Eh?
-I can take you down,

and then they can
let you know--

- Okay, we'll make it--
- What's happening.

- Okay.
- That's all I've been told.

Okay.

-Do you guys remember--
-On my--

Any good--
any good anecdotes from set?

Wouldn't that be--

-Oh!
-Oh.

I need to take all of you
downstairs.

- Oh.
- Oh.

-Downstairs?
-Downstairs?

- Yes.
- Okay.

-Did you check in?
-Yeah.

I just probably just--

Someone must have snapped it,
you know?

-I'm sure it's--
-Is that a joke?

- Okay. Thank you.
- Yeah.

'Cause that's like,
it's been done before us.

That's all right.

I think this is probably
where the panel is, you guys.

Do you know?

I hope not.

I know, so is that
what we're doing?

Yeah, that's really...

Or I guess, wherever
the audience is gonna come.

-We're being brought over. Okay.
-There's a few coming.

Hey.

I fancy a bit of breakfast,
like, do have any?

-You up for this?
-Sure, that looks great.

Do you get nervous
at this sort of thing?

-Oh, they did a wonderful job.
-Yeah, but actually--

Yeah, Jerry, it's um,
it's Ronnie.

Um, there's been a mistake.

Um, I told the people here
that it was December, and--

-Um, that's your chap there.
-Okay.

- Yes, yes.
- Okay.

Um, well, it's just the banner
we've paid for.

We put a deposit down
on the rooms,

but we-- we can't, uh--
we can't take that back.

- Is this who wanted to see us?
- Yeah.

-Ronnie?
-Okay, so just leave.

Just like completely leave
and then just do not--

- Excuse me.
- Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

The Delete the Messages.

Jerry, I have to go.

How much of that conversation
did you hear?

What? I'm sorry,
who are-- who are you?

Sorry, I'm um...

I'm Ronnie Riskin.

-Hi, Ronnie. Hi. Andrea.
-Yeah, I work--

-I work with-- Ronnie Riskin.
-Nigel Thomas.

Hey, fellow, fellow writer.

-Hello.
-I'm Ronnie Riskin.

I work for Jerry at the studio.

-Studio!
-Stu!

- Wait, okay.
- Okay.

I'm in the London branch.

Studio, studio.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Is Jerry on his way? Is it--

That's uh, that's
what's interesting

about what we've--
what we've just discovered.

Is this the room
that we're gonna be in?

Because it looks like
it's not quite prepared--

-Yeah, it's not--
-So I just get a little worried.

We've got like a half hour

before everyone starts
arriving, so.

This is as prepared
as it'll be.

What do you mean, it's as--

No, no, no, we-- I'm sure--
sure that you guys

have some tables
that you can set up here.

-We need the panel.
-Don't set any tables.

Uh, no, well, this w--
no, it was gonna be the room.

Um, I've got here,
I was really excited,

and I spoke to the people
that work here,

and they've relayed information
to me

that I'm now gonna give to you.

They've said that
there weren't any tickets sold.

What?

That nobody bought any tickets.

- No, I'm sorry.
- Oh, no.

That-- that's not right.

You've been misinformed
clearly,

because we-- we came here

for the 10-year celebration
that has been sold out.

The truth is, it's--
the celebration

10-year anniversary of Don't--
Don't-- uh, you know,

Don't Delete It, is gone.

-Don't Delete the Kisses.
-Don't Delete the Kisses.

-Is cancelled.
-Yeah.

- Is cancelled.
- What-- what--

-What's cancelled?
-What's cancelled?

I know. It's cancelled.

-What is cancelled?
-The event.

The entire event?

-Yeah.
-No, I--

No, no, I've-- I've-- I've
received messages from the fans.

From who?

- Fans.
- The fans?

I've had messages.

Saying what?

That they're coming.

We've put a lot of work
into this,

and we've all come far and wide.

I had an hour, hour
and forty train.

- Oh, yeah, I mean--
- Uh, yeah--

We've just travelled
from Los Angeles and--

I know,
we got the flights.

PR team says that
because the event,

nobody turned up
and wanted to see you--

see you guys,

that we're gonna have
to pull it.

And um, you can back me up
on this,

there's no rooms here.
Nobody can stay here.

Oh, fuck me, man.

Well, we can definitely--

- Well, no, hang on.
- We've got rooms.

- We do.
- They have rooms.

-We can do rooms.
-Yeah.

Don't talk about rooms
and doing this.

You guys were in charge
of this.

You guys in the PR team
were in charge of this.

I'm not in the PR team.

And we know
that there were tickets sold,

and that people are coming.

So, we don't understand,
there's got to be a mix-up,

so why don't you get Jerry
on the phone?

Please get him on the phone,

because you obviously don't know
what you're talking about.

Yeah, sorry.
I'm out of my depth.

I normally, I'm a creative.

I'm thinking about ideas
at a desk.

Okay.

Walk this way, please.

Thank you.

Now...

Put-- I know there's
no one on the phone.

-Sorry.
-Is it Ronnie?

-Ronnie Ruskin.
-Okay.

Mate, what's going on?

-The event's cancelled.
-Why?

Um, because there's, uh...

I'm so fucking anxious.

Th-- this-- this is the shit
that always happens.

Every time
she fucking does anything,

it just fu--
it just burns to the ground.

- I don't see how--
- What?

I got messages.

I got the dates wrong.

I said December,
and they thought December.

So, uh, yeah, it's not gonna--
I mean, they--

You said December
and they thought December?

September and then
they thought December.

Um--

Do you think it's weird
that if-- if I wanna kind of,

like, keep this illusion alive--

It's like we-- earlier, I w--
we were together in the lobby

and we had like a--
a quick kiss.

Wait, did you gu--
you guys actually came together?

Well, yeah, we're together.

We're still-- we're still
together like, you know, like--

-Oh, I thought you--
-Did you think--

-You thought that we--
-I thought you guys were--

Oh.

This is absolutely insane.

I could lose my job and I
can't afford to lose my job.

I've worked months to get there,
and I've got two ideas.

Um, one is an animation course--

- I don't care.
- No.

- Look, but the good news is--
- Yeah.

Um, in five days,
in five days--

Listen, listen, everyone,
we found out some good news.

Yeah.

Jerry's gonna be in town.

Um, so Jerry will be here
eventually, but--

Five days?

This is fucked.

-I'm going.
-What?

What'd he say?

Apparently,
he got the dates wrong.

What do you mean
he got the dates wrong?

No.

Fucking reason
that we came here

was to do this event,
which is now not happening.

I know, I understand.

We didn't come here
to be in the cold.

We didn't come here
just to fucking have a love-in.

Do you know what I mean?

We came here to work,
to fucking do this.

We are gonna work.
We're gonna work on the pitch.

- Oh, okay.
- So we'll find a place to stay.

They have got rooms.
We will work together.

We'll make this happen.

We'll put together
an incredible pitch

for the sequel,

and when Jerry gets here,
after I cut his head off--

- Hm.
- We will pitch him the idea.

-Thank you.
-Yeah, you're welcome.

- Sorry, thank you.
- Yeah.

The-- there--

-There's no rooms.
-There's no rooms.

I think
what I'm gonna do is um,

try and find a hotel.

If I can,
I'll find a hotel for all of us.

Okay.

If necessary, I'll try
and find a hotel for me.

No offence.

If I can't find a hotel for me,
I think I'm gone.

Ah, come on, man.

Nigel, like,
you gotta chill out.

We're in this.

Like there's-- there's--
it is what it is.

We're all together.

I think that you are missing
a bit of a-- of a--

of a golden ticket
right in front of you.

- Do you think?
- Absolutely.

We can write the sequel.

How long have you been married?

Eight years.

Eight years, yeah.

Can you believe it?

-No.
-It's nuts.

I honestly can't even imagine
being with anyone

longer than...

I think four months.

But I'm saying is, like
me and Jess--

Uh-huh.

Haven't seen each other
and been together in so long.

You can take
what's happening between us--

Uh-huh.

And use that as like a-- a--
a jumping-off point--

You know, to-- to-- to dive
into this, the sequel idea.

But we're not gonna make
the sequel in four days, are we?

Like at b-- at best,
we will write it or--

Yeah. I think that it's--

I think it's a moment
that we should absolutely

take advantage of...

and-- and just fully just be
in the moment.

No, I'm not being a prick
about it.

I just--
but this is too long to stay

in the ar--
fucking arse-end of nowhere,

waiting, waiting for a thing

that might not even happen
in four days.

You really think that's gonna
happen in four days?

You need a shot.
I need a shot. Okay.

Cheers.

-Cheers.
-Come on, to the sequel.

There you go.

It'll come, and the
right person will come along,

and it'll happen.

You know, sometimes it's just
gotta kiss a lot of frogs

in order to meet your prince.

I've been thinking,

do you ever, do you ever
like see somebody,

like a woman,
and you think,

"Am I doing everything wrong,

and I should just drop
everything

and-- and go be with
that person?"

Has it ever like--

Like do you have that
flash ever of like

another life
that you could have had?

Yeah.

Jackson is a growing man.

-And--
-He really has grown into a man.

Yeah.

-Thanks--
-He doesn't feel like

-a boy anymore.
-Thanks to me.

I'm sure.

But yeah, of course,
I get the idea of thinking it,

"Was that the life
I was supposed to have?"

Yeah, yeah, with that woman
over there

who I've never met before,

who just looks like
she could be the answer

to all my prayers.

The idea of like
what it means to--

Wh-- yeah.

To be with somebody--

Yes.

And then all of a sudden,
maybe think

that you've chosen wrong

or that you should,
all of a sudden,

just follow
a completely different path.

Of course, yeah, yeah.

-I think that's--
-That happens to you?

Pretty universal.
Yeah, absolutely.

Yeah, of course.

Can you explore that theme
in the film, maybe?

Maybe.

In the-- in the so far
non-existent film, yeah.

It exists.

It exists for you,
quite clearly.

It exists for all of us.

Exists strongly for you, yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, but no, I d--
I do think that's a--

Hey, everyone.

This song is called,
"Impatient".

Yeah, so you know,
it's something to explore.

Yeah, like the naivety of that,
I suppose,

because of course,
that person probably

isn't gonna be the answer
to your prayers, you know?

Why not?

-And sticky.

I just took a shower.

-Um...
-Oh.

Oh, yeah.

- Sorry, yeah.
- Um--

There's a drip of...

Well, this is-- this is--

You look good.

- You look great.
- You like, it's--

Yeah.

This is crazy being back here.
It's-- it's-- I mean, it's--

- It's--
- It's-- it's a lot.

I feel like Mike again.

It's-- it's pretty, pretty wild.

-I mean, I feel--
-Do you?

It's all just kind of
coming back.

It's like,
sort of fucking coming back,

you know what I mean?

For me, the word's, "fucking",

like when I say,
"Fuck, fucking, fucking",

that's what always gets me
right in the accent.

And I don't know if I can
get out of the character now.

It's like, kind of stuck in him.

It's fucking crazy.

Like for me, I was--

Okay, so I was walking
across the lawn,

and suddenly I saw--

Do you know there's bunnies
out there?

And you know that
the first time that I really

think that I found Michelle,

I was like, "This bunny,
it feels like, soft."

And for me,
when I start to feel soft

when I see something soft,
it just gets longer and--

- Mm-hmm.
- More available.

-There it is.
-W-- w--

There it is.

-Louisville, that's right.
-Little like Louisville.

Yeah, that's right.

It's weird that it just hides
somewhere inside of you,

waiting for, to be recognized.

Uh, what if Mike
and Michelle get reacquainted...

when Mike is in a bar
on his own,

doing shots, morose,
ruminating, miserable?

Uh, he looks over
and sees that this nice song

is coming from
this wonderful creature

that is Michelle.

Um. Oh, hey.

Hmm, getting inspired?

Hmm, a little thing
occurred to me.

- Look.
- A little free flow.

Can't have that anymore.

How are you?

Good. How are you?

I'm good.

You sleep?

Yeah, sort of.

I don't know what um, yeah.

Well, maybe we can do
a little brainstorming later.

-I've got some ideas, too.
-Hmm, mm.

I don't kn-- yeah, I might--
I might make a move later.

I might make a move home.

I'm so happy you're here.

Yeah, I am as well.

In a different world,
I would love to stay, but uh--

But what about in this world,

that you just stay
a little longer?

Mm. We have a cup of tea.

-All right.
-We have a little chat.

I have some ideas, too.

We see where it goes,

and then make your decision
after that.

How about that?

Well, once all the trains
have stopped.

-Yeah.
-Hm.

Uh, ah!

I wasn't born yesterday,
you know?

Wait, s-- so you're writing?

Yeah.

Oh, how-- hang on.

Come here.

What is it
that you're trying to write?

The sequel.

This sequel?

Yeah, this sequel.

But Nigel's writing the sequel.

I don't think so.

That's what he's here for,
Jackson.

What do you mean,
I don't think so?

He hasn't done a--
a drop of work.

Yes, he has. I just
spoke to him this morning.

He's got an idea.
He's got ideas.

Well, I have ideas.

I was out there
in nature today,

and I have so many ideas.

You're not a writer.
You're an actor.

- I have a ton of ideas.
- What are your ideas?

Well, uh, I mean,
I don't have my notes,

but uh--

Okay, for example,
it's-- it's-- it's--

it's 10 or 9 years later.

Um, and uh, so Mike
and um, uh, uh--

-Michelle.
-Michelle, Michelle.

Mike and Michelle, they, uh...

And so this is kind of like
them coming together again.

I-- I'm not gonna tell you
all this,

because you're just gonna
tell Nigel

and let him write it.
That's not--

I'm not gonna
tell Nigel. What--

That you haven't even given me
an idea.

They just meet again.

What are you doing?

I am writing.

Yeah.

What are you writing?

Working on ideas
for the sequel.

-Really?
-Mm-hmm.

- Nice!
- Yeah. Yeah.

I-- I think you shine
when you're on screen,

but I think your ideas
are welcome, of course,

but Nigel is the writer.

You and Nigel have like
a nice little connection,

but I uh, I don't think
he's that good of a writer.

What? He--

I don't think he's that good
of a writer.

The movie was a success!

And you think that's
because of that script?

I'm-- I'm trying to figure out

with-- with Mike and Michelle
really what's happened.

I'm just really trying
to piece together

what's happened between
where we left them

- and where we meet them now.
- True.

And sort of
what's gonna happen now.

We brought that to life.

We gave that everything
that it had

as like, the soul of the film,
understanding these characters.

We created it.

Like, for example,
when we shot the scene

where Michelle comes in
and out from the rain,

which is a little cliché
in my opinion,

she's like, "I'm wet",
and Mike goes, "Oh, yeah?"

You be Michelle, I'll be Mike,
and let's like, do that scene.

Door opens, Michelle comes in,
she's dripping wet,

and Mike goes, "Hey."

-A little cliché--
-Yeah, and she says, "I'm wet."

And Mike goes,
"Oh, yeah? Is it raining?"

Yeah.

"How much?"

Enough to make me wet.

That-- that was--
Those were his words.

- It's beautiful.
- That's not--

- It was great.
- That's not--

-We had to work with him.
-People loved it.

Do you understand?

Yeah, and you worked it
beautifully,

because that's what you do.

You make magic out of words.

I appreciate that.

But he writes the words,
and you make the magic.

I just seem to become
very, very stupid

when I'm around Jackson,
not Mike.

- It's a very strong feeling--
- Hmm.

And I don't think it's right.

I'm not really that dumb.

I see it in you, too,
right now.

Something's making us stupid.

Okay, I don't know
what you mean.

It's raining.

You don't have curly hair,
right?

-Me?
-Yeah.

-No.
-Hmm.

I like green.

What are you doing
under a tree with him?

-What the fuck are you doing?
-What the fuck am I doing?

I was having a moment with him.
What the fuck?

Well, what moment
are you meant to be having

with him? Get in there.

What are you doing?

See, I come out here,
and I see you, yeah?

Yeah.

Cozy, cozy,
trying to catch up with him

over here under a lovely tree,
and I know what you're doing.

I'm sorry,
but just I was 16,

and I was watching this film,
and I knew we had a connection.

He was looking at me
through the screen,

and I was looking at him,
and something just happened.

Oh.

And he didn't know
he was in love with me,

but now he's finding out.

So, I'm sorry,

but if right now
you've come here

just to ruin this moment for me,
I'm gonna come for you.

Are we clear?

'Cause you're my friend,
and I love you,

and you're a great person.

Okay?

Okay, it's kind of
mixed signals there.

I'm not gonna lie,
it's a bit--

But yeah.

- How can you love somebody--
- Hmm.

If you haven't been with them?

Who?

-Fine, Mike and Michelle--
-Okay, yeah.

And Nigel--

Yep.

-And Andrea.
-Yeah.

-Yeah?
-If we don't get intimate--

-Yeah.
-We're children.

We're stu-- we're like,
struck by love,

like hopeful and unaware,

and like we-- we don't
actually know each other.

We...

are crazy and obsessed

over people
that we have not been with.

So, what are we obsessed with?

The dream of them?

Mm-hmm.

And I think there maybe is
a door between our dreams...

and actually love...

which has to involve
another person...

and right now I'm not sure
if it does

involve those other people
as much as we think it does.

I see you.

Yeah, what do you see?

You.

You think you've got it
all figured out.

You think you know
exactly what you're doing,

but you have no idea,
just like the rest of us...

and I love you...

but I don't know
if I can keep going.

- You talking to me?
- See, that's so good.

Was that your character
or was that--

That was Mike!

Cl-- you heard the accent,
right?

Yeah.

Yeah, that was--
That was really good.

That felt real, right?

Yeah.

- Hi.
- How are ya?

Yeah, yeah, good.

I'm gonna go get some tea.

-All right. Yeah.
-I'll leave.

- I'll see you in a bit.
- Yeah.

-Are you all right?
-Oh, yeah, yeah, no, it's fine,

just relationship stuff,
you know?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, and it's when also
I was working on the--

the sequel and trying to
get in the creative flow.

Yeah.

You are gonna like this.

I've whipped it out for you,
look.

If you come here, look,

I've got this map
that I've got for here.

So, now you can see it.

What have you got there?

This, this is where you found
your head space in Kisses.

So, I just thought, here, yeah,

Mike went there
to get his head space,

so why doesn't Jackson
go up there

to get his fucking head space?

That's good.

I love the idea.

Well, I love you.

Uh, well,
I'm gonna tell everybody.

There you go.

You get me.

- Yeah.
- You get me.

-I'm going to the mountain.
-Do what you must do.

- Hey.
- That's it.

Hey, man.

- Hey.
- You all right?

- Hey.
- To the mountains.

Like for a walk?

Yeah, for a walk to like
get the juices flowing,

clear our heads a bit,
be in the mountains.

Mike, Michelle, meadow,

we're gonna bring it
all right back.

We're going
to the fucking mountain.

Who's playing meadow?

We're going
to the fucking mountain.

Going to the fucking
mountain, that's right.

Well, I suppose--

- You suppose?
- That's good.

If we gotta get
all the way up there.

You should go, defo.

Come on, let's get our coats.

I won't come, but
you should definitely go. I'll--

What do you mean
you won't come?

You know what?

Come, don't come.

Maybe you wanna hike,
maybe you don't.

Jess.

-Jess.
-Oh my God.

Okay.

Um, yes,
I don't massively wanna come

up the mountain.

No, no, no, Nigel,
you can't stay here.

Hmm.

We need you up there.

What do you mean?

We have a chance here
to recapture

that lightning in a bottle
that we had--

- Hmm.
- On the first film.

And I can-- I can almost see it,

and I think getting up there
on the mountain

is the answer.
You wrote it.

You wrote it in--
in the first film.

Mike has to climb the mountain--

- Hmm.
- To find the answer.

Yes.

So now it's time to live it.

This will be fun, you guys.

-What is that?
-It's the map!

Think this is it, guys.

Look at that!

-Where are you going?
-Oh, where you going?

Up to the spot.

-Well--
-Jackson, where are you going?

I don't think we should go
there, honey.

Well, we have to go
to the same spot--

That we were before.

But why there when the--
this is completely empty?

We're trying to capture
the lightning in the bottle.

We need the exact same spot.

Guys, if we're gonna do it,
let's do it.

It's like up,
up over this ridge.

I don't-- I don't know exactly,

but I know-- I know like,
the feeling of it, you know?

Just be logical for a sec,
honey.

Are you seriously
not coming up here?

No, because there's a flat bit
there, just there.

But it's not the same!

Right there, right there
it's flat.

Literally flat
right in front of us.

But it's not the same!

It looks like that.

It's all overgrown, honey.

It's much easier down here.

Over here somewhere,

like I don't know why we don't
just actually do it, you know?

Do you wanna go up there?

-Up there?
-Or there.

Well, I...

Good idea, Nigel!

We're coming!

You're right!

Thanks.

Flat.

- It's perfect.
- It's just--

Yeah, it's just easiest.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

This is great.

You're such
a spoiled bastard, man.

-See?
-Yeah.

We were so close to like,
the actual--

I mean, this is-- this is fine,
it's nice,

but like we were so close
to the actual spot.

That's where
we did the scene.

Up just above
that little ridge.

So up a massive hill.

You literally wrote,
"Up a massive hill."

Jackson, we all wanted
to be here.

- Yeah.
- That was way too high up.

- Too high, yeah.
- It's all been overgrown.

- That's right.
- This is nice and flat.

Let's just let it be.

You didn't know
where it was, also, to be fair.

Uh, I think there's
an instruction booklet in there

if you need it.

Uh, okay.

I should be all right.

I just know that it was--

When we did it,
it was so close to the forest.

Yeah, it was.
It was up there, for sure.

I think everything's
just overgrown a little bit.

Yeah, 'cause we disappeared
into the darkness.

Oh, that scene was so beautiful.

I can um, help you
if you need it.

-I got it.
-I'll give you a hand.

Once I've done this one,
I'll uh--

-I'll come and--
-I-- I got it.

-It's good. It's fine.
-I'll--

-Do yours if you want, but um--
-No, it's good.

I've just got to do mine first.

How did I get this part?

What do you mean?
You were--

Why-- why did you choose me
for it?

You are Michelle.

You embody her.

You brought her to life.

You made it clear that you were
the only choice.

Nobody else passed on it?

Yeah, they did,
but that doesn't matter.

You were the one.

You were Michelle.

I mean, if it was a competition,
like I'd be winning,

but it's not, so it's all good.

Why would you be winning?

'Cause I'm further along.

Hmm.

Why is your tent
in two parts?

What?

Your tent.
Like, look--

You see how this is looking
over here?

Yeah, but where's
your silver bit?

Silver bit's--
You keep it tidy.

-That's the rain fly.
-I know.

I guess I just--

I really had
major imposter syndrome

back then.

-I-- I'm still working on it.
-That's good.

Well, listen, you should
be proud of your work.

-Nigel, do you need help?
-Huh?

-Do you need help?
-No, thanks.

Is it supposed to be
a circle tent?

No.

-Do you need help?
-Are there instructions?

No, we don't--
I don't need 'em.

Of course, they're men.
They don't look at instructions.

I would think that Nigel
would look at the instructions.

I think it's good
if you do the pole early,

'cause then you can just pop
that in the middle, you know?

For the vulnerability you gave
and--

'Cause I think instead of--

Yeah.

Having to talk
about it or say things like,

"I'm proud", in some sort of
a repetitive way

where sometimes
I get stuck on the words,

I need to just absorb--

- Yeah.
- It.

- Yeah. Yeah?
- With--

With you,
it feels very nice.

I'm so glad.

Do you need help, Jackson?

No, no, no.

You guys just keep uh,
chilling.

You can agree that
like, for example,

America makes better tents,
better cinema.

I'll-- I'll give you this:
American make good cinema.

-It's good cinema.
-What about '90s?

Oh, Se7en .

Se7en's great.

Se7en's great.

It is great, innit?

-Yeah.
-Um, GoodFellas , 1990.

Yeah.

Pulp Fiction.

Wow.

- Ghostbusters !
- You like it?

Yeah, it's incredible.

-Yeah.
-Who is it--

Who plays the uh, the woman
in the tower,

when they go to the tower?
That's, um--

-Sigourney Weaver.
-Sigourney Weaver, yeah.

-You guys.
-Thank you.

Oh, she's incredible in this.

Thank you.
Yeah, no, she's amazing.

Yeah.

But um, yeah, I mean,
she's one of the best.

Yeah, it's like--
I mean, for me,

I think when I saw that
movie, too, it was like,

-it felt dated in a way--
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

'Cause by the time like,
I was watching--

-No worries.
-Yeah.

And I guess it was.

Effects in 25 years
will always look dated.

- Yeah.
- Is the story there?

- Yeah. Yeah.
- You know?

Is this a story
that will hold up, you know?

-No, it's cool.
-Mm.

I don't think you put this
in the middle first.

You know, it, it probably takes
two for each tent,

so it'll be great, and there's--

It'll be-- it'll be
a great starter.

I mean, I was like 8 or 9

when that came out
and it's still--

-Oh, wow! I'm jealous.
-It's amazing.

Well, Raiders, Raiders
I was about--

-Yeah.
-Like 8 or 9.

- Guys?
- Obviously,

if there's amazing American
films, I would know.

- Wanna come--
- Yeah.

- Do this as a little teamwork?
- This is--

- Little team exercise?
- Yeah, hang on.

- Hang on.
- But this is not a test.

'Cause I-- I don't blame you
for it,

but I think American people
don't know

that many British films.

Do you know what I'm saying?

Yeah. Oh, excuse me.

You all right, sug?

- Yeah, that'd be great.
- Hey.

- Hi, thanks.
- Hey.

Wow.

Um, I think we should look
at the instructions.

What do you think?

Well, let's see
what that looks like.

Now, if I hold it in place--

-Yeah.
-Then you can go hammer it.

Wait, is that-- is that a line?

Give a man a fish,
he'll eat for a day.

Teach a man to fish--

Oh, stop it.

And I'm h--
I'm giving you something.

I don't need to fish
more than this.

I go to the market.

The beautiful thing
of that scene was your improv,

the lines that you created,
that you wrote.

Hmm.

Hey.

- Hey.
- Can I come in?

Yeah, come in.
Of course.

-You all right?
-Oh, it's...

-working on stuff.
-What's up?

You know, it's just so stupid.
It's absolutely stupid.

It's the--

do you remember that part
where it was something like,

"Someday, we'll have a night

where these mornings
don't come"?

-Something like that.
-No.

Uh, "One day we'll have a night
without a morning."

"One day we'll have a night
without a morning!"

Yeah, yeah. Mm-hmm.

-And it was--
-Yeah.

-And in one version--
-Mm-hmm.

'Cause it repeated,

it meant without a morning
where we have to leave.

Yes.

And then another one
was about mortality.

Yes.

He's trying to take credit
for coming up with that.

Is he?

It really bothers me.

Why?

I'm made to want things.

It's my talent.

I'm a-- I can want,

and there's something
about him that's--

Hmm.

So goddamn magnetic,
and charming...

and just right there
for the taking.

And yet,
the thoughts in his head--

- Jess, stop. Stop.
- I don't want.

I get that you fancy Jackson.

Of course, I get that.

He's an attractive,
charismatic, famous man.

This, all this, is too much.

This is doing you harm.

So fucking annoying.

It's great being up here again.

Yeah.

Brings back all the memories,
doesn't it?

Mm-hmm.

My God, you were so sexy
directing.

Holy shit.

I loved the way
you looked at me.

There was no other way.

It was inevitable.

Mm.

Your beautiful eyes.

Like a little puppy dog,
just taking it all in.

I didn't know what to do
with myself.

Yeah.

I mean, I knew what
I wanted to do, but it was--

I was trying--

I was trying
to keep it professional, but--

-Yeah.
-That did not fucking last.

You did not do that.

No, I didn't.

You're such a good person.

Mm.

I don't feel that way.

That's stupid.

Don't be stupid.

I've loved you
the best way I can.

Yeah.

I know.

You are cordially invited

to the 10th Anniversary

Delete The kisses.

That's it.

Right, okay.

I guess we need to suss out
where Mike and Michelle are

- since we've left them.
- Yeah.

Have they been sort of
in each other's orbit?

Uh, do we wanna hold that
and suspend it,

or do we-- do we want
to give the audience

that thing of um,
"Oh, yeah, they're gonna fuck--"

- We need the fire.
- Yeah, yeah.

We need the fire,
because it's been pent up.

- We all know, as audiences--
- I know.

That it's been there
this whole time--

And that they-- they were
meant to be together--

And they just didn't see it.

Well, the fact that they're
two fish out of water--

Yeah, exactly.

Is very helpful for that,
because--

It's as if they look
at each other

for the first time
as these new, evolved people.

Uh.

And they realize that it's--

Mm.

It's us, you know?

- Mm-hmm.
- It's-- it's--

- Us.
- Always been us.

Can I kiss you, please?

I would love that,
I just don't--

My head's not--

Oh, man.

Yeah, I know. I know.

I'm sorry that I asked.
I'm sorry.

You're married.

I shouldn't have fucking asked.
That was stupid.

I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

Oh!

Oh, no.

-Hi.
-That's a little weird.

- Oh.
- It's me.

- Oh, hey.
- Yeah.

Hi.

- Crazy, right?
- That's very crazy.

Yeah, in a good way.

Pretty fucking crazy.

You have great eyes.

Huh.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

You, too.

- Thank you.
- Uh.

Uh.

Let's do a scene.

Um, what do you mean?

You know, like um,
just you're Mike,

I'm Michelle,
and we do a scene together.

-I don't know if that's the--
-It's like amazing, right?

I don't know if it's amazing.

- I think it's a little--
- It is.

It's a little weird.

Uh, I-- I think
you've got a whole--

I think
it's a great idea, right?

Thing going on
right now that's pretty--

No.

No, I would love to kiss you,
but I think it's the wrong--

No, you know what--

-Thing to do.
-That was-- that was mad.

Like that was insane.

-This is weird.
-I mean, we're having a great

-connection right now, right?
-I don't think--

This is-- this is-- this is uh,

this is getting
really fucking weird.

You know, you do realize
I haven't really--

I haven't really wanted
to kiss you for 10 years,

-and so-- No, not at all.
-You haven't?

Well, now
you're just giving me

s backhanded compliment.

Yeah, all right.

-I-- I really-- I-- I love you.
-Okay.

-What is--
-I know, I know.

Oh, it's the best kiss ever.

Mm.

Oh.

Oh.

Andrea.

- No.
- Andrea.

Look, I mean, I-- I--
I get that it's complicated--

- it's not complicated.
- But don't worry,

-I'm not like--
-It's not complicated.

I'm not the jealous type,
so it's just--

-It's fine.
-I understand that you need--

Like, if you have the need
to go talk to her right now,

it's fine.
I-- I'll wait for you.

-I'm just--
-Uh, okay, just--

-Oh. Just--
-Please.

No, but seriously, it's just--
it was great, right?

-No, it was fucking weird.
-And it was-- it was great.

-It was fucking weird.
-It was--

No, it was fucking weird.

Weird in a, you know, like,
passionate way, right?

No, not-- no, not at all.

-It's just--
-Not at all.

Look, I-- I-- I gotta,
I gotta fuck--

C-- could you-- could you
fuck off, please?

Just fuck off.
All right, that's enough.

That's like, uh,
you're fucking crazy.

Fuck off.

I think taking it down
should be easier

than putting it up was.

Uh, yeah, I hope so.

Yeah, all right, done.

Well, shit,
my bag's still in there.

Oh.

We're not gonna let this pitch
fall to the wayside, are we?

We're gonna really do something
with it.

But it's not like
we're gonna do a pitch

and then suddenly get paid.

It's um, it's still gonna be
a long process, isn't it?

You need to believe
in the process.

Okay.

And I think it's all gonna be
better--

Okay.

-Because of all of this.
-Yes.

Yeah. Do you--

You're gonna be better
because of it.

Hello?

Yeah, I like that.
Party rings, party rings.

Jelly, jelly, jelly, jelly,
jelly, jelly.

They like that,
especially Jackson.

He's like hell of a boy.

-Hey.
-Hey.

You all right?

-Yeah.
-Yeah?

Got the invitation.

-Got the invitation? Yep.
-Yeah.

'Cause it didn't happen
on the anniversary thing,

I thought I'd do one for you.

So, um, it's a little bit
lower scale, but--

Great.

I'll have the same
as what he's having.

All right.

It's getting there, lovely.

There we are. Shit.

Hey, hello.

Hey.

-Oh, no.
-You all right?

It must be the pub
that's just right

at the bottom of the hill.

Yes!

We get each other.

Yeah, close enough.

You're an amazing person.

This is the best time
I've ever had.

Can I give you a hug?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Ugh, not the best day.

No, I know. I'm sorry.

Nigel is an insecure
motherfucker

who is really a narcissist

and can't really write
that good.

Yeah, and...

We got locked out
of the bunkhouse.

Just come to get the key.

Oh, yeah, so I put a sign up
for you to come.

Surprise.

Yeah, I-- I'm just not
in the mood for--

Hey, can I-- uh, can I talk--
can I talk to you

for just a minute?

Look, um, I don't know
what you like think you saw.

It wasn't my fault.
Like, I wasn't going--

I wasn't trying to
fucking do anything.

Like, you know, it was--

Are you fucking serious?

It wasn't your fault?
You were kissing another woman.

God, you're so
fucking melodramatic.

- I'm not. I walked--
- Holy shit.

Into you kissing
another woman.

Andrea, holy shit.

I give you so much freedom

and that is what you choose
to do?

You're being
a fucking drama queen--

- I'm not.
- All the fucking time!

I am stating the obvious.

What would you do if you walked
around the corner--

You're always just creating
drama all the time!

- I'm not!
- Fuck off.

You don't feel like
there's an apology--

- Fuck off.
- Fuck off?

-Fuck off.
-I'm sorry.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, fuck off.

-Fuck off.
-Okay.

I'm finally fucking free.

That's how this is gonna end?

You're finally fucking free?

- You all right?
- Yeah.

- Fuck off.
- Goodbye!

I'll leave you to it.
I'll just, um...

I'm happy to just, you know,
let you in,

and you can have
a little sleep or something,

you know?

Like it if you just stayed
with me.

-You sure?
-Yeah.

Of course, yeah.

Hmm.

She was our director.

She directed you
to be with her.

You did it. Very--

So you think, you-- you think
that-- that-- that--

that-- that-- that she like,
took advantage of that dynamic?

I mean, she probably did
take advantage of the dynamic,

but you probably
were begging for it,

but you just
weren't ready for it,

and you just never could
live up to it.

And then you succumbed to it,

and then you didn't become
what you needed to be

-as a man--
-Mm.

'Cause you were always smaller,
you were always less than.

I'm really sorry, mate.
It's, um...

I mean, it was fucking--

If it wasn't awful,
which it is....

there is a world where
it would almost be funny.

It was so ridiculous.

It was so fucking ridiculous.

After my stupid, clumsy attempt
to-- to pitch you a little uh,

I was doing my own little pitch,
you then quite rightly say no,

and then three seconds later,
say you will, so--

I'm s-- yeah, I'm sorry.

-It's a fucking--
-I know it's not funny.

I just don't know--
I don't know

if I'm more angry uh, of uh,

Andrea's, all-- all the things
that she stopped me

from really going after

or if I'm more fucking angry
at myself

for allowing myself to follow
Andrea's uh, plan that's not--

You should definitely
be mad at yourself.

Yeah.

I mean, because
you like, signed up for it.

Um, but you were also--

What do you signed up for? I s--

I mean, but she was in charge.

She was always in charge.
I mean, it--

-She was in charge.
-Frankly, too much for you.

She was a woman.

Had you known it
and been okay with it or?

Yeah, I had been.

I think there was something
inside me that just knew...

...he was too young.

Yeah.

It's complicated, because I've--

Look, I've cheated.

I've cheated, but I've cheated,

but we've also had like open,
like an open thing, and times.

- I j--
- Everybody knows that.

I know like three people
that she slept with.

That she slept with?

Yeah, she's--

You guys talk about having
an open relationship, right?

Yeah, but we-- yeah.

Huh.

Oh, Nigel,
there's so many things

leading up to that.

I think, I think
that we've both known

for a while now
that this is coming to an end.

Really?

-Really?
-Yes.

-That bad? Ugh.
-Yes.

I think it's been
on a downward slope,

-and I think--
-Okay.

Last night
we had a beautiful moment.

And it seemed like...

...like a new-- a new beginning,
a new like, like,

figuring things out.

So seeing it today
was just extra--

Mm.

Um, it's not something
that I see, and visually--

Yeah, yeah, mm-hmm.

Watching it happen
in front of me

the-- everything
just exploded.

Boom, trouble again.

I-- I wake up, and she's
fucking off with Nigel,

and somehow I'm the guy
to blame?

I'm the fucking bad guy
right now?

It's time for me
to just accept what I've known

-for a long time.
-Mm, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry for you.

You must be very hurt.

I'm sorry.

I'm just glad you're here.

Are you?

You know, I really wanted
to kiss you up there.

Did you?

Okay.

I wasted 10 years
of my goddamn life.

Well, why would you
waste your time?

You had every opportunity
in the world at your disposals,

and you didn't-- you didn't--
you didn't make any moves,

-you know?
-What do you mean?

You didn't make
a single fucking move

with everything
that happened afterward.

I was too ugh,

prissy or something
to just take control

of my own situat--

I was just watching
opportunities fly by, you know?

But why were you--
why are you watching them fly by

and not taking them
and grabbing them?

I don't know why.

There's sometimes--
there's just a part of you

that like doesn't just go.

Jesus, you are so super pretty.

So are you.

- I guess--
- It could be unlocked.

It's like,
in the middle of nowhere.

People leave shit unlocked
all the time.

Oh, fuck!

People in the country
never lock their shit.

Oh, Jesus.

This is just cute.

Okay, hang on, hang on,
hang on.

-Okay, what?
-W-- wait.

-No, no, no, look, this is--
-What?

Look where we are.

Can we just--

We're in a fucking sitting room.

-Okay, okay, okay.
-We're in an area...

I don't know who the fuck's
gonna come in.

You stay that side of the wall
and if someone comes in,

we're just having
a glass of wine.

Could be a version
that's like a-- like a--

like a heightened psychological
thriller take on it.

Mike sees these two people.

They're not really there,
like he sees them.

Um, but they each--
each represents like

a-- a part of his consciousness
that only he can see,

and then when Michelle
meets him again,

she's so desperate
to be with him

that she indulges him
in his delusions,

even though she cannot see them.

That could-- that could work.

Cracked it.

Mike is completely alone,
he's lost everyone,

and he's crazy.

That's shit.

Turns out
writing's fucking hard.

I bring it to life
on the screen.

I'm Jackson Roberts,
and I'm an actor.

Right.

Right.

So, uh, act one,

arriving at the farm uh,

and the fallout of revelations.

Act two, going up
the mountain, um,

and a coming together.

Act three, uh, seeing the light
clearly, um,

resolved by literally walking
down the hill

as the sun comes up.

Yeah, I like that.

Morning. Hey.

You all right?

Uh, good.

I'm gonna come down.
One sec.

Yeah, I just wanted to say
I've-- I've been working

- on the pitch idea--
- Okay.

And uh, I think I've got it
into a pretty good shape.

So, if we are gonna do that
later,

-I'd like us to be cool.
-Yeah.

- Good.
- Yeah.

Yeah, no, we're-- we're--
we're good.

Okay.

- Appreciate it. Good.
- Mm-hmm.

- Cool.
- Yeah.

I'm actually quite excited
about this.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, I think so.

Yeah, it's not-- it's not bad.

- That's exciting.
- Yeah.

I'm very excited.

Hmm.

I want everyone's input,

'cause I'm gonna need,
obviously,

you and Jess to be um,
out there doing the dance.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So I'm gonna wanna hear
it as well, so.

Yeah, I've-- I've-- I've--

I've come to a realization
that I'm a much,

uh, much better actor, so.

-Than?
-Writer.

That's probably true.

Yeah.

- Okay.
- So...

You know, it reminds me
of this uh,

this great John Lennon quote...

"We're not all writers."

Well, no, you are--
You are the front man.

That's why I really need you
to sort of be on board

and fucking doing your thing
today,

doing the dance,
bringing the show.

Appreciate that.

You're welcome.
It's true. It's true.

- Oh!
- Uh, hell--

-Whoa, hello.
-Hello, boys.

What have you been doing?

Just getting some wood for,
I don't know, maybe a fire.

- Okay, cool.
- It's cold.

- It is cold.
- Hi.

- Hey, morning.
- Hey.

Morning.

You all right?

-Yeah, you?
-Very good.

I was just explaining
to the folks

that I've got
a pretty good sort of um,

pre-pitch.

-Oh, really?
-If--

Yeah, if you'd like
to go through it.

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah?

-We sort of lead it--
-Yeah.

Andrea, um,

and we hand over
to the pretty people

who can actually do it.

I think that's gonna be
the sort of thing

that clinching it,
not just talking about it,

- but actually seeing--
- Yeah, I love it.

A bit more of that magic,
huh, yeah?

- I love it.
- I think they will love that.

-Yeah, good.
-Um, I uh--

- You're welcome.
- I just--

Can I have a minute with you
and we'll get back to this?

- Of course.
- Yeah.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, of course.

- Yeah, of course.
- Yeah.

Okay.

Cheers. Uh...

Um...

look, I want to apologize.

Um, if you were in my situation,

you would've told you
to fuck off.

I-- I literally--

That woman jumped at me,
leaped on top of me.

I'm not gonna be physical.

Like, what am I supposed to do?

This is-- this is your apology?

You stormed right off
and ran down the fucking--

What is--
What's the problem?

Are you not attracted to me
anymore?

It's not about attraction,
Jackson.

I mean, you're-- y--
you're gorgeous.

Like, your eyes, that smile,
that...

That-- you're out of--

I mean, when we're walking
down the street,

people don't go, "Oh, look
at that old lady and that guy."

Like, they don't fucking think
that for a second.

They're like, "Oof!"

Why would you say that?

'Cause I thought maybe
you were worried about that.

I was. I'm-- I am now.

You know, this is just like
in Don't Delete the Kisses,

right before they make up.

Remember that scene?

Oh my God.

Saying all the shit
they don't mean to each other.

"I hate you.

I hate you."

This isn't a scene, Jackson.

No, I know, but--

You can't--
you can't write life.

'Cause you don't listen.

I'm listening!

I'm listening to every word
you're saying,

and it is bullshit.

This is like based on nothing.

You're not--
you don't listen to me.

You don't trust me.

You know what?
I'm done.

- You're done?
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, wow.

Fine.

- Fine?
- Fine.

You're not even gonna fight
for me?

Nope.

Wow.

Hey.

Come here.

W--

Ooh, wow!

Okay.

There's no set here at all.

I d-- I've spoken
with three people

and told them the same thing.

All there is
is a hole in the floor.

What's the hole in the floor
about?

Yeah, I'll hold.

Well, can you put
me through

to the person
I need to speak to, please?

- Right there, that's him.
- This guy again.

- Ronnie Riskin.
- Hello?

Sorry, two seconds.
Can you hold?

Um, there's nothing here.

So, we-- we start in two weeks,

so you need to start getting
the signs and every--

What are you doing here?

We're-- we're just here
to see Jerry.

-Can you just--
-Jerry's not here.

He's casting War of the Words.

No, no, Ronnie, Ronnie,
you told us four days ago,

when you fucked everything up,
that he was gonna be here.

So, you better become
a fucking genie

and produce him for us
right now

or I will hurt you.

- Oh.
- Oh.

Oh, hi.

Oh.

Hello, you're on mute.

Jerry, it's Ronnie Riskin.

Oh, you're on mute, sir.

- Hello?
- There.

- There, can you hear me?
- Loud and clear, sir.

-Yeah, where do I look?
-At my face.

Oh, I can see you.
It's a weird angle, but yeah.

Hey, Ronnie, how are you?

Yeah, good.
Yeah, good, sir.

How are you?

Couple of emails on that.

Hi, Jerry.

- That's--
- Hi, Jerry.

-Hi.
- Oh.

Hi, Andrea.

We bumped into each other,
uh,

just a few weeks back
on the lot in the cafeteria.

- We bumped into each other.
- Yeah.

we crossed paths
in the commissary.

That's right.

That's right.

It was great running into you

and I think I mentioned
to you then

that it's the uh,
10-year anniversary

of our film,
Don't Delete the Kisses.

Um, and we've uh--
we're all here together.

- Uh, Jackson and Jessica.
- Oh, hey.

- Jackson.
- Hey, man.

Great to see you again, man.

Hey, Jackson.
How you doing, man?

- And Jessica Riley.
- What?

Riley. Jessica Riley.

-Oh. Oh, yeah, hi.
-Hi.

Yeah, and this is uh,
our writer, Nigel.

He wrote this wonderful movie.

-Nigel.
- Who's that?

Nigel Thomas. I-- I wrote
the-- I wrote the film.

So do you--
Are you still a writer?

Yep, absolutely, yeah.

Still a wonderful writer.

- Still busy.
- Yeah.

Busy as-- as ever,
and-- and now we--

we're so lucky
to have him here

because we were thinking
of bringing the crew together

and creating a sequel.

Since the first one did so well.

What we have so far

is Mike and Michelle,
say, let's say 10 years later,

10 years after our last film,
uh, was out.

Now they're older.

- But to make sure we're not old.
- Older now.

- Older.
- Not old.

- 10 years older.
- Just older.

A woman in her 40s is sort of
like a good midway point.

We play it,
skew her a little younger,

- and-- and yeah, that's--
- Yeah.

But we don't have to play her
younger.

I-- I think it's universal,
because--

-A universal age.
-Because love is universal--

- Yeah.
- And because anyone--

And Jessica's just like
independent now

and she's maybe like,
eating a lot of pasta,

eating her way through Europe.

That's where
the Eat Pray Love comes into it.

Yeah, she's--

Now you're singing
a tune I know.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

So-- so-- so Mike is married
to an Italian woman,

let's say,
for sake of argument.

If I-- if I also could just say
that, you know,

for me, getting to play Mike
is the honour of my career.

Um, and-- and the fact
that you would even consider,

uh, making a sequel

and giving me another chance
to-- to-- to reprise my role--

They have a happy marriage.

Mike has gotten over his uh,
his--

There's never been a pair
like Mike and Michelle before.

Uh, I mean,
a lot changes over 10 years.

Mm.

-Who are Mike and Michelle now?
-Yeah, that's pretty much it.

Yeah, so where we are is

they meet up accidentally
in Tuscany--

Maybe this is a chance for me
to get that momentum coming in.

Maybe it's my cycle, you know?
And-- and don't get me wrong,

I was-- I was attached
to a lot of projects,

and you know,
they didn't really ever

get off the ground
or get made into anything,

um, which you know,
that's-- that's okay.

Like, it's-- it's hard.

It's very hard.

And we're in Tuscany,
we thought.

You know,
what a beautiful visual

to bring us
to a romantic country.

Um, as we progress,

let's just keep in mind
other locations.

Arkansas, for example,
has really good tax incentives.

-Arkansas could be great.
-Absolutely.

- Tuscany and Arkansas are--
- Anything is up for--

Interchangeable.

Yeah, anything is open
to negotiation, I guess.

But-- but generally
and genuinely,

Michelle is over this.
Michelle is absolutely--

You know, she's long past
having loving feelings for Mike,

- so--
- She's matured.

-Yeah, she's matured.
-Follow-- follow my lead.

Oh, oh, did you want
to see a little, um--

- Yeah.
- A little scene?

- Little scene.
- Would you like a little scene?

Yeah?

Okay, so I'm gonna need
to concentrate on the accent

- for a second. Okay.
- It's all right, uh--

You fucking tell me what to do.

Don't you fucking tell me.

I fucking love you.

By some uh,
by a twist of fate, uh,

they have to go
on a road trip together.

Coincidences are really, um,

they're i-- in,
considered a thing now

in the movies.

- Uh--
- I just gotta--

I haven't-- I-- I wanna get
the accent just right for you,

-so you can see.
-Ah, cool Jackson.

Can you see us?

-Cool.
-You have a sec? Shh.

- What?
- Very soft.

- Okay, you ready, Jerry?
- Yeah. Incredible, go.

How do we-- how are we gonna
get out of here?

Well, I mean,
it is all downhill.

We could just pop her in
neutral and roll her down.

You talking about the car or us?

Wait, I'm sor--

how did you--
what are you doing here?

I'm selling artefacts.

You're selling artefacts.
Wow, you-- yeah.

You married an Italian.

Sure, sure did, but gosh,
it is just--

I mean, that makes sense.

You're-- you're feeling it,
right? Right.

What's really great about that

is that Nigel uses
what we create together,

and then that kind of
can inspire his script, and--

But the idea of the car crash
was his.

-That was, yeah.
-And then we fed off that.

Great.

The end of the movie is
they're on-- on a beach,

on a beautiful Italian beach.

They look to each other,

and they start to go
toward each other,

and just as the--

we think their lips
are gonna start to touch,

blackout.

Can you just run it down for me
one more time?

Maybe just the story beats,

not that they necessarily
have to stay.

Hold on, hold on.

Oh.

-Intense.
-You see?

It's all-- it's all still there,

and we really, uh, would just
love the chance to get to--

to really bring this to life

and uh, share this
with audiences, uh,

around the world really.

So, yeah.

Um, I'm really feeling this.

I love the way you have
the real-life people,

- right there.
- Yeah. Yeah.

That's how committed we are.

And you say lines
to each other

that really make sense.

It's like pulling back
part of the curtain

to see the process.

This really checks
a lot of boxes for us.

Mm-hmm.

It-- it's got some romance.

It's got people
who aren't too old.

It can take place in Italy
and/or Arkansas.

We can talk about cast,
and location,

and budget, and setting

and script, and whether
we need a writer,

but today, this--

Gotta tell you guys,
this is really fun for me.

I rarely get to do this.

I'm gonna say this is
a green-lit picture

- right here in the room.
- Wow!

What?

-Really?
-It's a go.

- Whoa!
- Woo!

Wow.

Thank you so much, Jerry.

-Here we go. Here we go.
-Who knows?

Here we go.

I'll call you.

♪ Let's love

♪ Let's love

It's about our relationship

and it falling apart.

You can't write life.

Me saying that we're over,
we're done,

this is it, this is the end,
that's real.

I would love to kiss you.

You're my person.

I should've known it all along.

And they just realize
that it's us, you know?

It's-- it's always been us.

Mm.

You know what I think
we should do?

Mm-hmm.

I think we should get naked--

Mm-hmm.

And run in that sea.

-Come on! Come on.
-Let me take--

-Come on.
-Ow.

Get the socks off.

Yes!

Keep up, keep up.

I'm going.
Get your socks off.
