I'm guessing that didn't say pots

despite being a bit challenged in areas , I survived in the world, doing things my way 

life hand out just as it was supposed to, I guess 

my gift of the gab got me a long way 

and now I'm a single working mom. 

Apparently, it's the new black. 

Kisses 

Bye, mom. 

No, remember I want you to stay in the shallow end 

because contrary to your own belief, you are not Aquaman. 

I am Aquaman. 

My kids are happy. 

I help others when I can.

-Hey, how are you? -What's it gonna be?

- Its your favourite. - Boiler?

thats it.

And I even get time to focus on my passion.

No.

I could never forgive myself if I came back.

Could be different this time.

I promise

You get out of here.

Bravo Rachel, Bravo.

I got to say, life's pretty good right now.

Namaste.

Namaste, my sister.

How did you know it was me calling?

Have my spirit guides connected with you already?

Dude, I've got a smartphone. It shows me who's calling.

1 just called to remind you that tomorrow night will be experiencing the new moon

which is all about bringing in the new.

And I think you know what that means 

23 year old werewolves from team Jacob are out of the brawl. 

It means that tomorrow night is the perfect time for you to go out to meet that special someone. 

Energetically. The conditions are perfect for courting 

Courting? What century are you living in? 

I am not on the hunt for a knight in shining armour right now. 

Oh kakapos. You're not. 

Rachel. It's been three years. 

I am really surprised this shit hasn't dried up and fallen off already. 

Look, it's the last thing on my mind. 

I'm just too busy for that kind of stuff right now. 

And if it happens it will happen when it's meant to. 

Yes, the universe will provide love and light, love and light, love and light. 

But you could be a little bit proactive. 

Honey, I am trying to meditate in here and I am losing my connection. Shh 

I don't care what you're doing. 

you've really got to change that incense sam, it's giving you bipolar. 

All I'm saying, let's just try and make an effort, ok. 

You cant be the person on the invitation forever can you? No!

Now I've got to go but I love you. All right. Love and light. Muah.

Really Sorry about that lets get back into it. 

Oh, yeah. So we're thinking something like small and boutique 

just a few family and friends maybe on Waikiki island? 

Oh, yes, please. The kids and I we love Waikiki. 

And our moms will love it too. 

Oh and Margot's probably got her whole outfit planned out already. 

Oh, these are bloody good. 

Did you see that. 

See what? 

That guy is totally checking you out. 

- He's like 12, - even they look legal just. 

OK, listen to me, I am all about community service 

all right, but boys who look like they need a ride to school the next day do not really appeal to me. 

And there is no way that I am going to be all up in that shit. 

Morning, sexy. Did you have fun last night? 

Hey, look, I'd love to stay in play all day, but I've actually got a nine o'clock lecture 

you think you can give me a ride in. 

Come on, I actually do need to go. 

So when do we get to do this again? 

Yeah, I'm I'm really busy at the moment, you know, with my kids and

Cause they love food. 

Don't miss meeting again. 

So I was with my friend, all right.

Because like you have such a need to connect, it takes your breath away.

Who is it, is he anyone I know?

Oh, did you meet him at that Maori film festival thingy?

Is he tall, dark and handsome.

Oh my god I bet he is, is he exotic?

- Is he from south -he's a woman.

Met a transvestite? Which is totally fine with me and it's very modern, you know.

It's a woman. I can't stop thing about her.

About who?

Her name is Nikki and she's a filmmaker and she's Samoan.

Wasn't it you that said, actually, Sam

- we don't date Samoans - she doesn't even know that.

That what, that you like women?

-But I don't. -But you like this one.

I don't I don't know what is what is happening.

1, I'm losing my fucking mind

like I'm stalking her every other second.

And I am cooking cat food for my kids. Dinner.

What's that smell.

Oh, I'm going crazy. This is this is crazy.

We need to make contact

if you cannot shake this feeling, then you must act on it.

No, I'm not going to ask a chick out on a date.

-Why not? -Because.

Because why?

Why don't you just meet her for a coffee and a chat?

Nothing heavy. And just see how you feel after that.

Ok.

So what do we do?

Oh, my goodness, woman, how old are you?

Well, I've never asked anyone out on a date before.

Start from the beginning

set up a meeting somewhere public.

Say that you just want to talk about a film idea.

Just get her to commit to seeing you.

Film shows. What am I, a 13?

- Hey babe, -Babes, how's the fishing going. Invited?

Nothing.

She's too busy working on movies and deadlines

which just makes her sound fucking amazing.

Hang in there. She probably is just busy.

She is single, right?

Is she even into chicks?

- Oh, hey, Terry -it's Tere like it's always been.

Something I can do for you, Rachel?

No, no, no, no, no, no, everything's everything's good.

Hey, hey.

You know you know, your friend, the film filmmaker one?

Samoan hangs around the food tables

oh yea that one, you know I just I didn't I didn't see her with anyone at the film fest.

- Anyone? - Yeah, well, not like anyone, but any one.

I just thought her boyfriend or her husband

may have been there to support her.

She hasn't been with anyone for a while now.

Oh, that's such a shame.

Oh, yeah, because people like that

they are just really cool, you know

and they're really talented. And she's got the whole.

You know, the.

OK, ok, I'm just gonna.

It's been about three years since she was with her last girlfriend.

So then I said to her, did you touch her?

Do you wanna be deported?

You know, what she said to me, cousin.

Shut up your mouth, bitch.

And I was like

Cousin, are you even listening to me?

Sorry cousin, yes, I am listening.

um, no, you are not.

Philly, have you finished folding the washing?

Are you lying?

One, two, three, oh.

Cousin, you're being quite secretive and it’s making me suspicious.

Who is that -This Palagi lady?

She keeps messaging me with time about a film idea she has.

I've told her that I'm really busy, but she's pretty persistent.

Is that right?

- Hi, welcome - Table for two thanks.

We are pretty full at the moment. Do you have a reservation?

- Oh, no. -Oh, right.

OK, we do have one table, but there's a small problem.

- Are you serious? -Take it or leave it, sister.

- hi -hi! Rachel

You okay down there?

Yeah, yeah. No, it's just really it's good for my back injury.

Nothing too serious, I hope.

No, no, no, no. It's just from lifting tires.

- Sorry, i'm a bit late. -Oh it's fine, I literally just got here.

Yeah. Hi ladies. Can I get you something to drink.

Green tea if you have it please.

A looseleaf black tea with almond milk. Thanks.

Do you live around here?

Yeah. Yeah. Me and the kids, we just look around the corner.

Oh, You got kids?

Yeah. Felix, who's eight, and Indie, who's six.

Cool names.

guess so.

You wanted to talk to me about a film idea you have.

Yeah, a real Box-Office killer.

It's a sci-fi romantic thriller fantasy horror that's set in 2020.

That's next year.

One woman must protect her family from the depths of an inner city mall.

What's she protecting them from

Zombie's, shop assistant zombies

Here's your green tea, and your almond everything.

Thank you.

Your idea sounds interesting, especially with the voice.

Yeah, 1 just think it's really important to tell the story for the survivors

of zombies.

Nicki? Hey, thank you how are you?

Haven't seen you since the brett party.

I see you doing amazing, at Pinelli.

Thanks. It's it was intense, but it's Hollywood.

You should move up there.

We can hang out on Venice Beach and stuff.

Oh, sorry. This is Rachel.

We were just talking about a film idea.

Oh, my God. Are you finally doing that film about the Albino Dwarves?

I just want to say that I believe in you

and you are somebody who deserves the same opportunities as anybody else in the world.

thank you.

Oh, you're coming with me tonight.

I am? where we are going?

moms holding a fundraiser for the Samoa cyclones and 1 know how much you love charity.

\Now. Rachel.

Yes. I've I've got an urgent appointment with my gynaecologist anyway.

Oh, he needs to see it now.

Cool, yeah, sure, right.

Today, it's my sister’s birthday and I've decided to throw her a birthday party because I'm a great big sister.

Ok, listen up, everybody.

Yes, I need you all here about six o'clock sharp, OK?

Can you hear me...

right on time and I don't want you running late on my birthday party.

OK. For her

My sister's acting really weird at the moment

and she's being super nice to me.

Deary. Refined sugar.

Your vibration is incredibly low

and that is not surprising given the dense non food that is pulsating through your system

How did it go with Nikki?

I made a total fool out of myself.

She looked so amazing.

I couldn't even concentrate

and grown up Moana Polynesian goddess came in and

swept her out right from under me.

So it wouldn't be such a problem if I didn't

if I just didn't feel like this, I mean, what is this?

I felt like a blubbering teenager.

To be fair, you've never done this before.

Done what?

Chased anyone, guys have always chased you.

You're in foreign territory and she's a woman.

She was off with another woman who's all brown and hot.

And she doesn't need SPF 500 just to go to the litter box

OK, you need to go and find her and show her

how awesome and funny and smart and talented you are.

There is no coming back from that

the clock is ticking. Where did they go?

No, I was too busy dying. 100 deaths and eighties.

Oh, think hard. Where did they go?

They went to a fundraiser for cyclones in Samoa.

Great. Fantastic. I'll get on the old interweb

and I'll find out where they've gone.

Can we at least be inconspicuous?

We are going to blend right in.

I'm wondering why no one is dressed like 90s rappers like we are.

This is just what showed up when I searched Urban Samoa chicks.

Come on, hurry up, we are wasting time.

-Can you see her anywhere? -No and I don't even think that i want to right now.

Wait, isn't that your mate that I just met?

-I don't want... Listen to me. -Oh, my god. She's coming over. Drink. Drink.

-Hi, Rachel. What are you doing here? -Oh, I'm just supporting the cause with them friends.

-Awesome. Every cent counts. -This is my friend Sam.

-Hi. -Oh my God. Let me guess. 90s dress up party Vanilla Ice.

Oh, you're both Vanilla Ice.

I'm am sorry. We have to go.

-Justin Bieber? -Wait Lets go.

Stop, what, that was breaking ends back there?

-Was that Rachel? -Yeah. You know her.

Yeah. She cooks meals for the City Mission. She's cool.

-It's funny what people look like outside of what we know. -Ok

Cousin, why are we to stand so far away from the game ?

Cause second hand smoking is hazardous to children's health.

-How was the meeting with the blonde lady? -It was interesting

Really ?

I'm not really sure what it was about

Philly tackle like mommy's showed you, not like daddy, for goodness sake.

And then Frankie turned up, oh, my God, I loved her in that film.

And we ended up going to her mom's fundraiser for the Cyclone run in Samoa.

But what was really strange was the blonde lady turned up

with her blonde friend dressed like new kids on the blocks.

-Spoiler alert -what?

Cousin she wants the P -the what?

-The p the pussy the punane -cousin. It's disgusting

-But it's true. -She ain't interested in me like that.

She's a white mom who gets her nails done and lives in an expensive neighbourhood.

She ain't interested.

Come on, Riff, you wait till you get home, you go get it.

Hi. Hey, is Tere available, please? -I give her a call.

Hi, how are you?

-I'm good, I'm good, -you hungry?

-Yes -yeah we should move out

Anywhere. Let's go to somewhere close.

Let's go find Rachel. We'll say Hello, okay?

What are you doing?

Looking for my contact lens, this is really expensive, it must just popped right out of my face.

You don't wear contacts

But it's never too late to start.

You remember Nikki?

-Hi. How was the rest of your night? -It's pretty quiet.

-You guys hang out now. -We cross paths.

-Tere. It's for you. -Hello, Tere speaking.

How's Frankie? Sorry, I shouldn't pry.

-That's OK, according to the gram her boyfriend is spinning some R and R in Bali. -She's got a boyfriend?

Rocco he's stuck on the roof of the gymnasium.

-And I'm going to have to rain check lunch. -Totally fine.

-Oh, OK. Thank you. -Good luck.

I don't suppose you know any way around here that’s good to get a bite to eat.

Yes, there's a really good canteen just around the corner.

Oh, well, you go down the stairs and then you take a right

-I can give you the address if you want -or you can show me.



Yeah, that's if you don't already have plans for lunch.

-No, no, no. Yes, no. Yes. -All right?

OK, I'll just go get my bag.

-Should we go? -yea

-have your a few minutes to look over the menu? -Great.

How's Felix and Indie?

Oh, good memory

yeah, be great, and I'm so lucky to have them and lucky that they still want me as their mom

especially after the last few weeks.

Do you have kids?

No, I think I've just resigned

to the fact that pushing a watermelon out of something the size of a squash ball

is basically for the tough ones like yourself.

No, see, that was the easy part. The war on chores is still ongoing.

Oh, you better get back in before the boss returns.

She won't admit it, but she loves me.

-Thank you for the company. -It's very cool.

-Thank you. I'll catch you around. -Sounds good. Great.

OK. OK, bye.

Do you like foreign films?

Oh, I'm just going to come right out and say it. You remember Susan?

Well, her son Brian is just back from Europe without his wife. Shocking breakup. Oh.

-I am so excited to see this. -Me too, I love the director

He is a genius.

-You ok? -yea I just I don't usually watch these types of films.

I thought you said you liked foreign films.

Yea love foreign films, I just I can't really read the words, moving fast.

I think I have dyslexia or I'm just really, really bad at reading.

-I can read the subtitles for you. -ok

-They normally don't have Samoan Kiwi accent. -Yeah, but that just made it better.

Are you hungry? Thirsty. Need dessert.

You know, I make amazing tea if you want to come try it back at my place.

I just forgot that my key doesn't open the door from the front.

I've got to go around the back and open it from there. I'll be right back.

Come on, baby, come to mama little Kenny, you're just prolonging the inevitable. I will get you though.

Love and Light love and light love and light.

She's here.

We went to a movie and it was amazing and then

I invited her back to my place for tea and now i think that something might happen.

And I don't know what to do.

Listen to me. You have a very particular set of skills,

skills that are transferable, skills that you've acquired over many years.

Follow your instincts and if it all turns to custard, I will find you.

-Ok, I have to go. -Rach.

Moonbeam, I see you.

Sorry about that, I just had to switch the jug on, come on in

-Your kids look like fun. -Yeah, I really hope you like them

I put the air con on, but I could just crank it up a bit. Yeah.

-Do you like music, so I'll just I’ll put something on -Sure

My mom bought a Maori CD for Indie, so she must have swapped my slow jams one out for that one.

Sorry about that. I'm sorry about all of this.

I've had a really great time with you tonight

and I think it's fair to say that I really like you, but I think it's best we just call it a night.

I really enjoyed tonight, Rachel. I hope we can do it again sometime.

Shit

I think you should take me inside.

-Good morning. -Morning. Smells good.

I made you some green tea. It's not like the one from last night.

-Are you hungry? Breakfast is almost ready. -Love to, but I want to be at work soon.

OK. And who is hungry?

-Why, hello there, Miss Nikki. -Hey, you, how are you going?

-You have! You've fallen in love with her! -I have not!

Cousin. She's going to a wedding. Do you know what happens at weddings?

-Two people get married ? -two people get drunk and hook up.

If you're really serious about her you better claim your woman A.S.A.P. before somebody else does.

I think I wanna go

Now? But we haven't even ordered. Is everything OK?

-Woa mom, you gonna smudge my dress on you. -Oh, sorry. Hello.

OK, I think we should make a move.

Do you continue to honour your relationship through honesty, loyalty

and to build a foundation for your future?

I do.

Em, Do you take Najd for the person he has become

and to stand by and support him and his individual growth?

I do.

There is one more thing we would all love to witness

and that is the seal of your commitment to one another in an embrace of love.

I pronounce you married.



-I accidentally called you sorry. -It's all good.

Actually, I'm not sorry, what I am is really confused.

I have no idea what happened at dinner. I thought we were having a good time.

We were.

Look, I wanna be someone's special one, not just a number in a black book of hookup

Is that all you think you are to me? A hook up?

I've gotta go, enjoy the wedding.

Mom!

Mom, look what Andy's found!

Hi, thank you for coming in, I really appreciate your time so much

-Thanks, Nikki! -thank you bye

Ok, cool

Guys, i've got nothing to say, We loved it.

Thanks thanks.

-Are you sure it's alright, Mom? -Of course, these two are the cheapest caddies on the island.

Listen, I love you.

I want you to be good for Mama and I will pick you up from the ferry building in two more sleeps.

OK.

OK thank you.

All right.

-Bye -bye.

What are we doing? Right. Who wants to go swimming for golf balls?

-Me! -Come on.

Rachel, I feel like my heart has swelled with love for you.

Thank you for coming to get me and not giving up on the idea of us.

I thought this would be a good time to ask you truly and honestly

If you would consider becoming my lady, my lover, my partner, my soul mate

for however long we both decide suits us best.

I love you, Rachel.

And hope you will walk alongside me.

For this moment in time.

I was supposed to give you that at dinner.

But you know how that turned out.

So what do you reckon?
