exciting.
But time makes it predictable.
He doesn't really see me anymore.
It's as if he's replaced me with someone else.
I've lost those parts of who I am...
or who I could be.
And...I'm scared I won't ever get them back.
Maybe I shouldn't be telling you this.

Hen?
Hen!
You expecting anyone?
What? What is it?
Didn't hear you come in.
JUNIOR: Someone's here. - Oh.
Looks official, doesn't it?
HEN: Yeah, could be.
When was the last time we had a visitor?
(VEHICLE APPROACHING SLOWLY)
HEN: He must be lost.
JUNIOR: No, I don't think so.
(SETS BOTTLE DOWN)
He must want something.
- (METAL CLICKING) - W... Oh, my God.
JUNIOR: Hey, whoa...
- Um... - You been messing with this?
- What are you talking about? - It's empty, Hen.
Yeah. We never leave it loaded.
What do you mean, we never leave it loaded?
Just put the gun back! Put it back.
- Or what? - (KNOCKING AT DOOR)
Just put the gun back, OK? We need to go. Come on.
Get the door. It's empty.
OK, well, let's...
I can't do anything with the gun. It's empty.
Go.
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
Hello?
MAN: I'm sorry. I know it's late.
Is that Henrietta?
- Who's that? MAN: Terrance.
Yeah, we don't know any Terrance.
TERRANCE: Junior?
I think you'll want to hear what I have to say.
Both of you.
No.
(DOOR OPENS)
JUNIOR: What's this about?
TERRANCE: I'm here on behalf of OuterMore.
JUNIOR: OuterMore?
TERRANCE: We're working on the climate migration strategy.
Specifically, Off-Earth habitation.
What is he saying?
I think he means living in space.
TERRANCE: You OK if I came in?
Yeah.
(RIFLE CLUNKS SOFTLY)
JUNIOR: Anybody else in the car?
TERRANCE: No, making these visits is my job.
Hi.
- Do you want to sit down? TERRANCE: Sure.
OK.
JUNIOR: Mm-hm.
- It's a great place. HEN: Hm.
Charming.
Rustic.
How old is it?
Ah, it's old. Couple of hundred years.
Wow.
You just...you just don't see this anymore.
Guessing it's always been in the family?
Yeah. Yeah, fifth generation.
Oh, I love that.
The old ways of living.
Yep, still a few of us left, so...
(HEN CHUCKLES)
But you don't farm it, do you?
Right, well, this is... this is very exciting,
but before I say anything,
I'm supposed to show you this.
Now, I'm sure you've seen our previous campaigns,
but this one is special.
- (DEVICE CHIMES) - Can you see OK?
Yep. Can you see?
Uh-huh.
WOMAN 1: We are all so proud of you.
WOMAN 2: It is so inspiring.
MAN 1: You're giving us hope for the planet.
WOMAN 3: I got chosen. I'm going to space.
MAN 2: We're all eternally grateful.
I can't wait to see your smiling face soon.
We've been working on the next phase of transition
for a long time.
Uh, there's always been several possibilities
of human existence in space.
The Moon, Mars.
But with our lands and seas transforming as they are,
we decided to build our own space station, our own planet.
WOMAN 4: Go further.
Be better.
For the planet. For the future.
For all of us.
How will you rise?
Yeah, what...what's that got to do with us?
Right, so I'm here because of the installation.
Ah, the first wave of temporary resettlement.
Oh, yeah, yeah, no, I think I heard about this shit once.
TERRANCE: You did? - Looks pretty ridiculous.
I mean, why would you spend money up there
when you should be fixing things here?
Well, see, our motivation is proactive,
to help our children's children.
(SCOFFS)
Do you have kids?
Could I trouble you for a glass of water?
Yeah.
- I'll have a beer, yeah. - Yeah.
- Thanks. - Thanks.
(EXHALES)
(CHUCKLING) It's hot.
I'm used to air conditioning.
- Right. TERRANCE: Yeah.
(CHUCKLES)
Do you remember a time when there were farms around here?
With livestock, and crops. Real farms, no offense.
Mm-hm.
Yeah, only as a kid, though.
Must have been bought up or burned.
- Burned? - Yeah. By the corporations.
They burn all the old farms,
clearing the fields for their hybrid stuff.
They don't give a shit.
I noticed all the canola on the drive on the way in.
I didn't realise it grew this time of year.
All year round. Barely needs water.
TERRANCE: Doesn't seem natural.
It's not.
Man, you could...
you could do whatever you want out here.
(HEN CLEARS THROAT)
HEN: Here you go.
Thank you.
(LAUGHS)
Oh, yeah, you won't get water like that in the city.
- Thanks. - Yeah. I do love it.
JUNIOR: Mmm.
Cheers.
So, I've been assigned to your file.
We have a file?
You didn't sign us up for anything, did you?
No.
OK, so this guy just showed up out of nowhere, right?
Yeah, it's not my fault...
Wouldn't be the first fucking time...
TERRANCE: No, it's true. No, you didn't, you didn't.
Um, but we've had our first lottery.
I'm excited to say that you've made the shortlist.
You're one step closer to living up there.
JUNIOR: (LAUGHING) OK...
OK, well, you're wasting your time
because we...we haven't even been on an airplane,
and she'd...she'd hate it.
Oh, so you wouldn't? You wouldn't hate it?
I...I'm just saying you wouldn't like flying.
You've also never been on an airplane.
OK, we both don't fucking like flying. What's the big deal?
Alright, I should...I should clarify, sorry. Um...
I'm talking about you here, Junior. Only you.
What...?
TERRANCE: These tests require real physical strength,
specific skills, all of which you have, Junior.
Wait, wait, wait, you're not fucking around, right?
No, this is just a warning.
(TENSE SIGH)
Sorry. (LAUGHS)
Sorry, warning's the wrong word.
This is...this is good news.
It's good news?
And the...the government knows about this, right?
We are the government.
Our space station is orbiting Earth as we speak.
And what if...what if I just say no, right?
If I just refuse.
What happens then?
You do know about conscription?
During the old wars,
if-if you were picked, you had to go to war.
And if you didn't, well...
Yeah.
Are you threatening us?
- Junior. - Is that what's happening?
HEN: Junior. - No, no.
Are...are you threatening us?
HEN: We could lose the farm.
(CHUCKLES)
Let's not focus on the rule of law here, OK?
This operation could end up being
the biggest public initiative ever, OK?
You'd be a hero, Junior.
Do you want to live mundane lives
like everyone else,
or do you want to be part of something special and unique?
Because that's what this is really about.
A chance to be a better version of yourself.
Sounds pretty good.
TERRANCE: Listen, it's time to move on.
Soon, most of us won't be able to live here.
Our planet was marvellous - is marvellous -
but it's given us all it can.
No, it didn't give us anything. We stole it.
JUNIOR: How long's the shortlist?
- I can't reveal that. - Wait...
But what I can tell you is that nothing will be decided
for a couple of years.
A couple of years?
TERRANCE: Yeah, sadly, these tests
will run in two-year cycles.
Right, so you expect us to just go on living
like everything's normal?
Yes. Because it is.
Nothing's been decided yet.
Mm-hm.

Really?
Are you just gonna go to sleep after that, huh?
Sorry.
Can we talk tomorrow? I'm not feeling well.
No, we should talk about this now.
Do you think you could sleep in the guest room tonight?
I just don't want you to catch anything.
(JUNIOR SCOFFS)
Since when has that mattered, huh?
(KISSING)
I'd rather be alone.
You're serious. You want me to sleep in the guest room?
Please.
- How did you know? - (EXHALES WEARILY)
How did I know what?
Before he got... Hen.
Before he got out, you said, "He must want something."
How did you know it was a man?
I don't know, is that what I said?
- Yeah, when the car pulled up. HEN: Oh, I don't know.
It wasn't intentional.
I mean, if I said it, it was probably without thinking.
Listen, I'm exhausted,
and if it's OK, I just want to go to sleep...
When you said it, it was so certain, so...
OK, well, name one woman
that would drive up here at night, alone, hmm?

Why are you pushing me?

We all have questions.
Well, not when you take your vows.
So in seven years, you've never felt any doubt?
Never.
Getting married straight out of school doesn't worry you,

And we're different.
We met at the right time.

To get the best understanding of life up there,

People like us don't belong in space.
But that's the whole point.
At some stage, all of us may need to go. Permanently.
You'll receive handsome compensation.
A thankyou from the government.

Look, you've been gifted a rare opportunity
that for now seems daunting.
But why does the unknown have to be a burden?
Junior, this is incredibly rare, OK?
And you've been selected.
You're going to the installation.
No, no, listen to me. I don't like how you just show up here,
and you say all this shit and you act
like we should be thanking you.
And if it's such...if it's such a fucking great opportunity,
why is it only you that shows up here?
Where the fuck is everyone else, Terrance?
Would it help if there were more people
scurrying around your house and property?
What's in your bags?
I thought I'd drop some things off.
I'll have to stay, now that it's official.
Here? You're staying here?

I thought we still had longer together, Terrance.

Yeah, so? (SCOFFS)
Could be a real strain on her. On your marriage.
You're the one that's forcing me to leave her.
Well, so we have to do what's moral.
And what do you consider to be moral?
We're going to replace you.
What, me?
We're going to ensure Hen has company while you're away.
No, fuck off. There's no fucking way that's happening.

No, no, no, you fucking calm down.

It's not another man.
We're developing a biological replacement.

In the old days, you would have left Hen with

- volume and a body. - I don't want a fucking robot
living with my wife.
Ah, it's not a robot, OK?
It's a new kind of self-determining life form.

You'll see.
It's going to be astonishing.

No detail is inconsequential.
Only to observe you and record your daily routine.
- That's why you're staying. - This is fucking insane.

- OK. TERRANCE: Look.

the likes of which hasn't been seen since the Live Aid show
back in the 20th century.
Once again standing up for what they insist
is the greatest emergency of this generation.
There is no more time left for talk and debate
but to offset the centuries of exploitation and neglect.
The crowds here are huge and...

Terrance, I don't care what you're planning, OK?
But whatever you bring here, it won't be me,
you know, cos I can't be replaced.
Nothing wrong with a growing self-confidence.
Just make sure for your own sake it never hurts Hen.
Have you ever hurt her?
TERRANCE: Fuck!
(LAUGHS) No hands!
(LAUGHS)
Whoo! Whoo!
JUNIOR: Whoo!
JUNIOR: Any hook, any chicken, it doesn't matter.
TERRANCE: I'm glad the pills
are working on your shoulder.
JUNIOR: I do feel energised.
TERRANCE: Because in the coming days
you will be under enormous physical
and psychological pressure.
OK. You ready?
Alright.
(DEVICE BLEEPS)
(GROANS)
You have to get used to these tests.
There are more when you arrive, some less pleasant than others.
Oh, fuck.
Deep tendon carpal-tunnel reflex test.
I'm so sorry. It's done.
- Done at work already? - Why is he facing the wall?
TERRANCE: Hen, you can't be here.
I think he's had enough.
- You OK? JUNIOR: Uh-huh.
We agreed.
(SIGHS)
HEN: Be downstairs. - Yep.
JUNIOR: What the fuck was that?
Yeah, we really need to make sure she's OK.
If you notice anything unusual,
or if she's acting odd, it's best you tell me.
- OK. TERRANCE: If we're to help her
while you're away,
your replacement will need to know what you know.
I need to have an intimate understanding of your marriage,
the good and the bad.
And anything you tell me up here,
I promise it's confidential.
It's between you and me.
You can handle that, right?
Mm-hm.
This is more than saving the farm, Junior.
It's about ensuring your marriage survives
while you're gone.
(PIANO PLAYING FAINTLY IN DISTANCE)
TERRANCE: Have you ever cheated on her?
What?
TERRANCE: Hen.
No, definitely not.
You never fantasised about another woman?

No. I, um...
TERRANCE: Has she ever cheated on you?
- Oh, fuck you. TERRANCE: Has she?
No.
TERRANCE: You're not basing that on trust, are you?
I'm basing it on what I know.
TERRANCE: Do you feel you know
how she would react in every situation?
Have you ever asked her the question yourself?
Hen's not like that.
TERRANCE: But you don't actually believe
you know Hen better than she knows herself?
- I'm not saying that. TERRANCE: Look, there are
things about her you don't know and will never know, OK?
Thoughts, feelings, all her years before you.
Listen, mate.
Hey.
Look, she has desires that existed before you
and exist beyond you.
- You can accept that, right? - No, I...
Hey, Junior.

everything feels so alive and...

But time makes it predictable.
He doesn't really see me anymore.
It's as if he's replaced me with someone else.
I've lost those parts of who I am...

And...I'm scared I won't ever get them back.
Maybe I shouldn't be telling you this.

Don't deny yourself those parts.

Your wife, Junior.
