MATILDA: I tried my best, but I can't.

I just can't.

I'm never gonna be able to do this alone!

Do you wanna go home?

Okay.

We're going back home.

- [BIRDS CHIRPING] - [BEES BUZZING]

GENEVIEVE: Who is this?

- NICHOLAS: Oh! - ALEX: Oh... Ohh!

[SIGHS] Alone again.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Hey!

NICHOLAS: Hey. Hey!

It's the time of day that we come in.

- Huh? Us, the people that you like. - ALEX: Yeah.

The time of day where we come in

and try to change your life.

For the better!

Get out.

Well, um...

we thought you might change our lives for the better

by hanging out with us.

And do what?

Well...

- There's things to do. - NICHOLAS: Yeah.

We'll find things to do.

- Yeah. - Shut up!

And get out.

No, okay, yeah.

Of cour... W-we'll... We'll...

Look, um, why don't we give you some more time?

How much time today?

Sixty minutes?

Oh, wow, that's a lot of time.

Matilda?

[KEYS CLACKING]

Ninety minutes?

Set timer for 90 minutes.

[CELL PHONE CHIMES]

But, like, what are we going to do today?

[GIGGLES]

Maybe we should take the trash out?

Interesting pitch. Let's discuss.

Please can we take the trash out?

Hmm. I don't know.

- Please! - NICHOLAS: Well, you see...

But, like...

Do we want to take the trash out?

Do you know what I mean? That's the real question.

'Cause, like, I don't know really if I feel like it.

I don't wanna take it out.

- NICHOLAS: Mm-hmm. - GENEVIEVE: But-but...

Just hear me out.

NICHOLAS: Mm-hmm.

It'd be nice to have an empty space to put new trash.

No...

Please, can I just do it by myself?

What? Oh, my God. Alone? How could you?

GENEVIEVE: In what world did you think

we were gonna allow you to do that?

- How dare you? - Then come with me!

This actually isn't easy, is it?

It's not easy because I don't wanna take the trash out.

But also I don't want you to leave us alone,

but also I don't want you to be disappointed

- if we don't do it. - What if I just, like, did it?

I don't like it when you threaten us like this!

I'm being helpful.

You know damn right what you're being!

Stop ganging up on me.

Stop ganging up on us!

I'm bored of this now.

You're bored of this, are you?

What, you think I'm not bored of this?

You think he... You think he's not bored of this?

We're all bored of this, Genevieve.

Permission to complain, forty-five seconds?

Granted. I'll set the timer.

Okay, when you watch the end-of-the-world movies,

they always gloss over the subplot

where there's a guy who's just finished college,

and he's excited to become a dentist,

but he can't become a dentist anymore, because there's a pandemic,

and he's got $292,000 in student loan debt.

And he was excited to become a dentist

but he can't become a dentist anymore

and he worked really hard to become a dentist.

Yeah, I mean, I was expecting an apocalypse would have

a lot more running and killing and loving super hard

and Aerosmith playing.

And I love you both, but...

- This is not a life. - This is not a life.

- It's not a life! - I yield my time.

Um... Do you want... You wanna look at my teeth?

Are they giving you trouble?

No.

But I'm willing to pretend.

Okay.

Okay. Well, then we need your tiny mirror.

Alex, where is your tiny mirror?

Ugh. It's not in here.

Did you take it?

I don't think so, but...

I mean, probably. I don't know.

Does anyone remember me

wanting to look at something small

that's also around a corner?

Hmm.

Should we find it or...?

I can't remember why we thought this was funny.

GENEVIEVE: Me neither.

I'm sorry, baby, you'll get to be a dentist one day,

and-and it will be beautiful.

Yeah, you're gonna be the most delightfully dainty dentist.

[CELL PHONE TIMER BEEPING]

What's that timer for?

[BEEPING CONTINUES]

[BEEPING STOPS]

Matilda.

Oh, shit.

[CHUCKLES]

You can't keep coming in here.

Mm-hmm. Yeah, no, that's been said.

MATILDA: I'll come out, I am, I just need to focus on my work.

What are you working on?

MATILDA: I've got a lot of projects.

My workload is in the roof these days.

Um, what projects?

You're being unfair.

Matilda, are you telling us the truth?

Yes. Why aren't you on my side?

Well, there's no sides.

If there were though, we'd be on yours.

I need to focus on getting into a local college.

Okay.

MATILDA: Yes, if I don't,

then I'll have to get a job at a factory

putting caps on bottles,

like Jeremy is probably doing.

- Well... - Is that what you want for me?

No. Babe, all we want for you is to come have a sandwich.

Not all of us can prance around all day like you do.

ALEX [CHUCKLES]: Okay, um...

maybe we can, uh, help you with your work?

You can't help.

Okay, well, how about you play piano for us?

I will later.

Okay.

Let's just, um...

Set timer for one hour.

[CELL PHONE CHIMES]

So, in America, when in doubt,

follow the money, honey. Right?

How much do you think the Civil War

had to do with ending slavery?

And how much do you think it had to do

with the Northern bankers furious with Southern planters

taking their profits

and depositing them in English banks?

Shit.

No, I fell asleep. Oh, no.

Now I'm never gonna get to sleep tonight.

And Alex is going to fall asleep so early,

I'm just gonna be there in bed next to him trapped.

- Trapped? - Yes.

Yes, trapped.

Scanning for new moments in my life

to feel ashamed about.

And I don't know what happened at the end of the Civil War.

Please tell me, Genevieve. Please.

We ended slavery...

sort of.

Well, that's good.

All right. There's been a change of situation.

You need to understand that I'm in charge actually,

and if I say that it's time to get out of bed,

then that's it.

That's it. That's done. That's the thing that happens.

That's stupid.

You're not the boss of me.

Matilda, that's it.

You're getting out of bed. Today, like now! Like right now.

- No! - It's non-negotiable.

Make me.

Well, if that's what you want, yes, then I'll make you.

Just get out! Get up! Get up!

Nicholas, you're being hostile.

Oh, God, the floor is just too nasty.

You can't decide what's non-negotiable.

I'm 18. I'm old enough to enlist in the military.

Well, fine. If you don't get out of bed,

I'm gonna enlist you in the military.

Matilda, they wake up really early.

They won't take me, I'm autistic.

Now go away.

Matilda, I agree. You need to get up.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Yeah, no, no. I-I agree too.

No more misters or missus nice guys and girls anymore.

We're being firm. This is us being very, very firm.

Please don't push me.

I'm using all of my energy

not to say what I want to say.

And... And what is that?

Genevieve, you don't even try to hide your envy.

I got into Juilliard

and you're still looking for a hobby.

Nicholas is inconsistent and untrustworthy,

and doesn't understand me or my needs.

Alex is only dating Nicholas for the money

and to use our pool.

If you guys had your lives together

you could have helped me stay in New York,

where I belong.

I did my part, I got in, but you failed.

This is your fault. I am a victim of circumstance,

this your fault.

You created the circumstance.

All of you.

[SIGHS]

Bye.

Yeah, cool. Bye.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

My feelings hurt. Like, um...

I think, I think I can feel my feelings.

Where did she get that from?

It's not like you take me out for dinner.

She's just repeating something she saw on TV.

She doesn't mean it.

I feel, like, I wanna, like, call people up from high school

and check if they ever liked me.

GENEVIEVE: Guys. None of this is real.

She's just doing a show.

Well, I mean, if that wasn't real,

- it was weirdly specific. - Yeah.

I'm not gonna pay people to date me. I don't know why she thinks...

I've got heaps of stuff going for me.

I'm, like, I'm, like, actually I'm a fun guy.

ALEX: Hey, this is LA.

I could be dating someone way richer

if that's what I wanted.

Thanks. [LAUGHING]

- ALEX: Yeah. - Thanks.

ALEX: Mm-hmm.

[EXHALES]

You guys know New York wasn't not your fault, right?

Yeah, I know. Yeah.

[CLICKS TONGUE]

No, yeah, I'm...

I'm hopeless. I'm without hope.

I-I think I have an idea.

- NICHOLAS: Ooh! - Ooh. Okay. What...

[GASPS] Why? Why?

Matilda's favorite thing is coming to the rescue.

[MUMBLING]

No, no, no, no, no.

[KNOCKING]

Matilda?

Uh, babe, I-I cut my finger,

do you have a Band-Aid?

Oh, my God, there's so much blood!

How much blood?

You always over exaggerate, silly.

You need a bandage.

They're in the hall closet.

[BLOWS]

BOTH: Pressure.

Higher than the heart.

- [KISSES] - [LAUGHS SOFTLY]

Can I hang out, out here?

Yeah. Yes, please.

I haven't been sleeping because...

I've been so busy.

Okay.

Can I take a nap on the couch?

Yeah.

Good.

[ALEX GRUNTS]

[CHUCKLES]

Why would she take my tiny mirror?

NICHOLAS: We know why, don't we? We all know why.

To look at her vagina and/or butthole.

That's-that's why.

Her laptop is logged in.

Sh... Should we...

- Genevieve. - GENEVIEVE: Should I?

- ALEX: No! - Yeah, no, absolutely not.

But she would have searched all the things, every thing.

You cannot break the sacred pact

between woman and the internet.

Yes, he's right. Also, it's actually not gonna help us, okay?

If you looked at my search history

you would have a very strange understanding

of what my priorities are.

This is what's keeping her in bed.

So we have to know.

She's right, too.

Alex, it's ethically ambiguous.

- No, it's not. - NICHOLAS: It is.

It's an invasion of privacy.

Okay, yeah, don't do it. Don't do it.

[KEYS CLACKING]

- You're doing it. - I'm doing it.

You're defying me.

Everyone's defying me and my guardian role.

I signed contracts.

What if she's doing something dangerous?

Oh, no, do you think?

NICHOLAS: Whoa.

No, she's not doing anything dangerous.

[KEY CLACKS]

Oh...

[KEYS CLACKING]

Ohh... no.

What was that? Was that shock?

ALEX: Genevieve, tell us.

No.

I must bear this burden alone.

No, Genevieve, you can't carry the weight of this alone.

You're too tiny.

Wait, does this mean we don't get to know?

No.

This is brave, what you're doing.

It's very brave.

It's frustrating.

Very frustrating.

[DOOR CLOSES]

I need to call Drea.

Okay.

Do...

Do you have more you want to say about that?

Are you two still, like, together?

I haven't spoken to her in four weeks and two days.

- Hmm. Wow. - GENEVIEVE: Okay.

Okay.

Um...

How do I know if she wants me to call her?

I think by calling her.

But I don't want her to see me ugly and puffy.

I have no stories to tell her.

I don't have any anecdotes.

You need anecdotes.

You don't need anecdotes, do you, Alex?

Nicholas used to always bring me anecdotes

when we first started dating. It was exhausting.

Apparently other people ask questions.

Can I use one of those anecdotes?

Uh, what if we start with a shower?

I don't think you can tell me to take a shower.

I can take care of myself.

Okay. But that involves taking a shower, right?

Why? Do I smell?

Like prosciutto.

In a bad way?

Everybody loves prosciutto.

Eh, you don't wanna smell like a meat, babe.

[SNIFFS]

[LINE RINGING]

SUZE [OVER PHONE]: Hi, Matilda.

Hold on.

It's Drea's mom!

Hello?

Who is this?

NICHOLAS [OVER PHONE]: It's-it's Nicholas?

Oh. Oh. It's Nicholas.

Hang up.

Um...

Sorry, who's this?

Is this Suze?

What can I do for you, Nicholas?

Um...

Will...

I... Well, Matilda was calling Drea, but then,

um, instead you answered.

See? And...

Yes, now here we are.

Drea is just in the pool at the moment.

- NICHOLAS: Right, she's in the pool? - Yeah.

When did she start swimming?

I thought she hated water.

Okay, cool, do you have any idea when she might be out?

Um, Matilda?

Uh, I-I need to ask you something.

Um, and I need you to listen before you get mad.

What are you going to say to make me mad?

I...

I went on your laptop.

What?

I-I know I shouldn't have.

Why would you do that?

I'm sorry. Just, it was there and it was open.

That doesn't give you permission to read through...

- my things. - GENEVIEVE: No, I... I know.

Um, and you can yell at me later,

but for now I think before you speak to Drea,

you and me need to talk about what you were searching.

It's an invasion of privacy.

Um, but what it looked like to me,

as what you were doing, is that you were trying to,

uh, figure out whether or not you're actually a lesbian.

That's digital trespassing, Genevieve.

Matilda, if you think you're not queer, you need to tell Drea.

You know what you are?

You're a little sneak.

It's not fair to keep that a secret from Drea.

A dirty sneak.

It's not fair to either of you.

You don't know what I want better than I do.

Okay.

Why is Matilda calling?

Does... Does she still like Drea?

Yeah, yeah. Yes, I think yes.

Well, that's not good news!

No, it is, it's good news, isn't it?

Isn't it? We love love. Don't we?

SUZE: I had to explain to Drea that...

when someone stops texting or calling

it means they're not interested.

NICHOLAS: Yeah, I mean, that is...

I mean, that is good advice.

SUZE: Well... And she believed me because she trusts me.

What am I supposed to tell her now?

What am I supposed to say it means

when your girlfriend stops texting or calling?

What is the lesson here?

Yeah.

Yeah, I know, that's not easy.

That's not easy.

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

SUZE: There were a lot of tears.

And not just Drea's.

Drea stopped eating, her dog Duke stopped eating.

I've never seen anything like it.

[PIANO KEYS THUDDING]

And now...

Nicholas, you have to understand

that Toby and I were never sure

anyone would love Drea the way that we do and...

- Yep. - A lot of times people can't see

why she's so special...

but then Matilda did.

Yeah, I know it's been hard.

Yeah, it's been, um...

Yeah, it's been hard here too.

[INHALES SHARPLY]

Do you think it's a good idea

that we let them talk to each other?

Ooh, um...

- [CLICKS TONGUE] - [EXHALES]

Yeah, um, I don't know.

I don't know.

I've never liked it, but...

maybe we should let them make their own choices.

Yeah. Yep.

Hi.

Hello.

Are you mad at me?

I don't know yet.

Are you okay?

I don't know yet.

Were you okay?

No.

Are you happy I called?

I don't... I don't know yet.

- Why didn't you call? - I don't know yet.

Are we... still girlfriends?

I-I don't know yet.

MATILDA: Well...

technically we never broke up.

DREA: No.

We didn't.

I suppose we are still girlfriends.

Good.

DREA: I'm going to forgive you,

I just, I wanna be very clear

this can never happen again.

Okay?

Okay.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

Hi, Mother, I can't talk now, I'm busy.

I've been walking for three hours a day,

with all sorts of people.

Well, I'm glad it's working out well for you.

PENNY [OVER PHONE]: It's actually very sad for the world,

but it's meant that everybody's had time

to catch up, it's been wonderful.

No, no, Mum, that's too many people.

You're in a high risk group.

PENNY: I don't think I am.

- But you are though. - PENNY: Well, I don't think so.

I've never been this fit.

I have the ass of a Nepalese Sherpa.

Okay, but you are though, Mum.

Hey, I'm gonna call you back, all right?

PENNY: Well, I don't believe you.

- NICHOLAS: I will! - Did I tell you I'm back on Tinder?

Everybody's in heat.

You can just feel it coming through the phone.

Yeah, okay, Ma, I'm gonna call you back, okay?

PENNY: I took 15 years off my age,

but I think that's okay...

Don't worry, she can't hear us. I put her on mute.

Can I write you a check? Okay, thank you. Thank you.

Some people are living very hard lives though, aren't they?
