Man: RIGHT FROM THE START, IT WAS GOOD.
IN THE BEGINNING, IT WAS REALLY GOOD.
WHEN IT FIRST STARTED, WE, UH...
FIRST STARTED SEEING EACH OTHER,
FIRST STARTED GOING OUT TOGETHER,
JUST THE TWO OF US DOING THINGS...
WELL, IT ALWAYS IS.
ISN'T IT ALWAYS THAT WAY?
ISN'T IT?
CHRIST, THE ENERGY WE HAD.
THE FUN WE HAD.
THE TIMES WE SPENT...
DOING NOTHING SOMETIMES...
DOING EVERYTHING.
DOING ANYTHING.
IT WAS JUST SO GOOD.
IT WAS LIKE A DRUG.
EVERY DAY, JUST WALKING AROUND,
WHATEVER I WAS DOING,
THE WHOLE WORLD WAS BEAUTIFUL.
EVERYTHING MADE SENSE.
EVERYTHING THAT DIDN'T MAKE SENSE BEFORE, ALL OF A SUDDEN--
IT WAS LIKE BEING ALIVE AGAIN.
IT WAS LIKE I'D BEEN DEAD AND NOBODY HAD TOLD ME,
AND NOW I WAS ALIVE AGAIN.
HOPE, I GUESS.
THAT'S WHAT IT WAS.
BELIEF.
BELIEVING IN EVERYTHING AGAIN.
YOU KNOW, I EVEN LIKED THE WAY I LOOKED.
I STOPPED CHECKING THE SCALE.
I STOPPED SMOKING.
ISTOPPED SMOKING.
I STOPPED PUNISHING MYSELF.
I FELT GOOD ABOUT MYSELF.
I FELT LIKE I COULD DO ANYTHING.
I USED TO GET SO EXCITED I WOULD SHAKE.
EVERY TIME I KNEW I WAS GOING TO SEE HIM,
THERE WAS, LIKE, THIS ELECTRICITY COMING OUT OF ME.
YOU KNOW, PEOPLE WOULD SAY,
"WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOU? YOU LOOK GREAT.
WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING?"
I WAS ON A ROLL.
I WAS STRONG.
I WAS RELAXED.
I WAS LIKE A PIG IN SHIT.
EVERYTHING CAME TOGETHER ALL OF A SUDDEN...
ALL THE LOOSE ENDS,
ALL THE FEAR, ALL THE ANXIETY.
SOMETIMES YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW YOU'RE IN PAIN
TILL IT GOES AWAY,
AND THEN THE RELIEF...
THE JOY.
WELL...
THE FIRST TIME I SAW HIM...
I LAID EYES ON HER...
I KNEW... RIGHT AWAY...
THIS WAS IT. REALLY IT.
[JAZZ PLAYING SOFTLY]
Female vocalist: ♪ WHOO! ♪
LIKE, BYE.
Woman: WHEN IT STARTS THAT GOOD,
THERE'S NOPLACE TO GO EXCEPT BAD.
[DOOR SLAMS]
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO FUCKING DIFFICULT?
BECAUSE I WANT TO KNOW...
BULLSHIT! WHAT WE'RE DOING.
WHAT WE'RE DOING?
WHAT YOU'REDOING IS LEAVING, GOING. GO!
I'M NOT GOING.
GO.
WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE TALKING.
WE ARETALKING.
NO, WE'RE NOT TALKING.
WE'RE NOT TALKING!
OK, THEN. WE'LL TALK.
WE'LL TALK.
TALK.
TALK!
AAH!
GOOD.
YOU REALLY MAKE ME SICK.
OH, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
IF I EAT, I WANT TO THROW UP.
IF I DON'T EAT, I GET A HEADACHE.
IF I SLEEP, I HAVE NIGHTMARES.
IF I DON'T SLEEP, I GET DEPRESSED.
I CAN'T MOVE.
I'M STUCK ON A CHAIR,
JUST GOING OVER EVERY WORD,
AND IT JUST MAKES ME EVEN SICKER.
THIS IS YOUR IDEA OF A CONVERSATION?
I'M TRYING!
I HAVE 57 VEGETABLES WAITING
TO HAVE THEIR PICTURE TAKEN IN THE MORNING.
I WORK, TOO.
RIGHT. PARLEZ-VOUS FRANCAIS?
TEACHING. IT'S VERY HARD WORK.
SURE.
THAT'S IT. I'M TAKING THAT CLASS TOMORROW.
WHAT, AEROBICS?
NO. FLAUBERT AND THE DOMESTIC ENSLAVEMENT OF WOMEN.
OR, DOES A PERSON WITH A PENIS HAVE TO BE A DICKHEAD?
CHRIST, THAT'S PERFECT. YOU SHOULD PASS.
THAT'S RIGHT.
[HORNS BLARING]

Man: OH!
[THUD]
HMM...
I THINK WE SHOULD STOP SEEING EACH OTHER.
Man: I MEAN, WHAT IS IT, TWO YEARS?
TWO AND A HALF YEARS?
Woman: WHAT'S THE POINT?
TWO AND A HALF YEARS.
WHAT HAVE WE BEEN DOING?
I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, OK?
TRY.
WE'RE SUPPOSED TO TRY.
I MEAN, WE ARE SUPPOSED TO MAKE
AT LEAST SOME KIND OF AN EFFORT.
SOMETHING GOES WRONG, YOU JUST WALK OUT THE DOOR?
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?
I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU ANYMORE, EITHER, BUT I SEE YOU.
AND...WHO SAYS WE WANT WHAT WE THINK WE WANT?
WE WANT WHAT WE THINK WE'RE SUPPOSED TO WANT,
LIKE THE THINGS THE BOOKS TELL US TO WANT AND THE MOVIES.
THAT'S WHAT I WANTED.
HAPPY. HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY. SHIT LIKE THAT, OK?
WE DIDN'T GET THAT.
THAT'S THE END OF THAT. IT'S NOT THE END OF US.
IT'S THE END OF A DREAM, THAT'S ALL.
YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING, AND THE DREAM IS OVER.
SO WHAT?
I'M STILL HERE.
YOU'RE STILL HERE. WE'RE STILL HERE, OK?
YEAH.
SO MAYBE WE SHOULD...
MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST NOT SEE EACH OTHER ANYMORE.
THAT'S WHAT I SAID.
Man: SHE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO CALL.
IF SHE WANTED TO TALK, SHE WOULD CALL YOU.
WHAT AM I GOING TO SAY? HELLO? HELLO IS GOOD.
"HI. IT'S ME."
"HELLO. IT'S ME."
"HI, MONICA. IT'S ME, STEVE."
JESUS.
"HEY."
"HI. REMEMBER ME?"
CHRIST.
JUST...
JUST DO IT, ALL RIGHT?
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
[RING]
I WAS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, SO I THOUGHT I'D DROP IN AND SAY HI.
THEN I THOUGHT MAYBE I SHOULD CALL FIRST--
CHECK IF YOU'RE IN, IF IT'S OK,
THAT YOU HAVEN'T GOT ANYBODY... WITH YOU OR ANYTHING,
THAT YOU'RE BY YOURSELF.
I DON'T KNOW.
YEAH, I BEEN GOING OUT A LOT LATELY.
NO. ACTUALLY, I BEEN--NO.
I BEEN GOING OUT A LOT LATELY. I'M WORKING.
GOING OUT...WORKING...
DO IT, DO IT, DO IT...
I'VE BEEN GOING OUT A LOT LATELY. I'VE BEEN WORKING.
I BEEN SEEING LOTS OF WOMEN.
MONICA.
IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN.
I'M PHOTOGRAPHING LIMA BEANS.
YEAH, THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL.
WELL, WHY DON'T YOU CALL ME, FOR FUCK'S SAKE?
[INHALES DEEPLY]
WHEW.
HEY. YOU WANT TO GO OUT?
I DON'T KNOW. WE COULD GO TO A RESTAURANT.
UH...GO TO A MOVIE, EAT SOMETHING. I DON'T KNOW.
GO OUT. OUT OUT. YOU KNOW, OUT, OK?
I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU.
YEAH. YEAH. BE NICE TO SEE YOU.
WOULDN'T YOU THINK?
WOULDN'T IT?
YEAH?
YEAH.
YEAH. MM-HMM?
I DON'T KNOW.
JUST--JUST SEE YOU.
YOU KNOW. COME ON.
NO. NO, I JUST--
NO. I MEAN, TO SEE YOU, OK?
NO. I JUST--
YEAH.
[SIGHS]
LOOK, I KNOW WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO SEE EACH OTHER.
I KNOW WHAT WE SAID.
YEAH.
OK, HOW ABOUT IT?
I'M NOT FORCING YOU, OK?
I'M NOT FORCING YOU.
HOW COULD I FORCE YOU?
I'M JUST SAYING--
I'M SAY...
LOOK, I'M SAYING WHAT I--I'M SAYING.
I'VE SAID IT.
YEAH.
ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.
JESUS! ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.
LOOK, I'M SORRY I CALLED, OK?
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
NO. NO.
NO. IT'S NOT IMPORTANT.
OK?
I TOLD YOU.
[SIGHS]
I TOLD YOU WHY I CALLED, OK?
I'M NOT GOING TO TELL YOU AGAIN.
ALL RIGHT?
IT'S NOT IMPORTANT, OK?
GO BACK TO WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING.
IT'S FINE.
OK. YEAH.
BYE.
MM-HMM. YEAH.
BYE.
I CALLED YOU BECAUSE I WANTED TO SEE YOU!

[BOTH BREATHING HEAVILY]
Steve: OHH...
[MONICA SPEAKING SPANISH]
NO. DON'T MOVE.
DON'T MOVE.
QUERIDA...
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T MOVE.
DON'T MOVE. STAY, STAY, STAY.
[GROANS]
OH. YOUR LEG...
WHAT?
YOUR LEG-- WHAT LEG?
THIS ONE.
I CAN'T FEEL IT. WHERE IS IT?
OHH. HERE.
IS THAT MYLEG?
YES, THAT'S YOUR LEG.
JESUS, MY WHOLE BODY--
WHAT DO YOU DO TO ME, HMM?
DRUGS.
WE DIDN'T DO ANY DRUGS, DID WE?
NO.
DID WE HAVE A LOT TO DRINK?
WE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DRINK.
WITH DINNER?
WE DIDN'T GO TO DINNER.
I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO DINNER.
WE DIDN'T MAKE IT.
MMM.
THEN ALL THIS...
YOU MEAN, ALL THIS IS JUST FROM THE SEX?
HMM?
[STEVE HUMMING]
[STEVE CHUCKLES]
[BOTH LAUGHING]
OH, WE MUST HAVE BEEN REALLY HORNY.
YEAH, I GUESS SO.
IT'S AMAZING, ISN'T IT?
MM-HMM.
EVERYTHING ELSE IS FALLING APART--
I MEAN, WITH US.
AND THE SEX IS GETTING BETTER.
I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT, ALL RIGHT?
MMM...
IN THE BEGINNING, IT WAS REALLY TERRIBLE.
MM-HMM.
I MEAN, THE SEX.
DO YOU REMEMBER HOW BAD IT WAS?
NO.
FUCKING AMATEURS.
I THOUGHT WE'D NEVER GET IT RIGHT.
UH-HUH?
OK, I WILL JUST MAKE AN OBSERVATION.
AS THE RELATIONSHIP HAS DETERIORATED,
WE FUCK LIKE MONKEYS.
CHERI?
MM-HMM?
WHERE DO YOU WANT TO EAT?
WHAT?
I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO DINNER.
NOW?
YEAH, NOW. IT'S NOT THAT LATE.
IT'S NOT THAT IT'S LATE.
I'M STARVING, HONEY. AREN'T YOU HUNGRY?
YEAH, I COULD EAT. I DON'T KNOW.
WELL, WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
I THOUGHT WHEN YOU CALLED,
YOU SAID YOU WANTED TO GO TO DINNER.
THAT WAS BEFORE.
BEFORE WHAT?
BEFORE THIS.
YEAH.
BUT...
WE WOULD HAVE ENDED UP IN BED ANYWAY.
NOW IT'S OUT OF THE WAY, IT'S BETTER.
TAKES THE PRESSURE OFF THE REST OF THE EVENING.
WHY DO YOU SAY THINGS LIKE THAT?
LIKE WHAT?
"TAKES THE PRESSURE OFF THE REST OF THE EVENING."
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
I DON'T KNOW.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE ECSTATICALLY HAPPY TO SEE ME.
AND I WAS. I AM.
SO?
SO WHAT?
SO MAYBE THAT MEANS...
WOULD YOU PASS ME THAT BOWL, PLEASE?
THANK YOU.
THAT MAYBE WE SHOULD BE SEEING EACH OTHER AGAIN.
WHOA.
I THOUGHT WE WERE BREAKING UP.
WELL...
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I DON'T KNOW.
I JUST KNOW THAT WE SHOULDN'T BE TALKING ABOUT IT
LIKE IT WAS A TRIP TO THE DENTIST.
I SAID IT WAS GOOD.
SOMETHING YOU HAD TO GET OUT OF THE WAY.
I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT, AND YOU KNOW IT.
WHY DID YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT?
BECAUSE.
WHAT?
WHEN WE WERE GOING OUT TO DINNER OR SOMETHING,
IT WAS ALWAYS BETTER IF WE, YOU KNOW, HAD SEX BEFORE WE WENT OUT.
FOR ME, IT WAS BETTER.
WHY?
I DON'T KNOW.
I JUST ALWAYS HAD A BETTER TIME.
IN BED?
NO, AT DINNER OR WHEREVER WE WENT AFTER.
I DON'T GET IT.
AH, IT'S NOT IMPORTANT.
WHOA.
YOU KNOW, YOU REALLY GOT TO LET ME BUY THE WINE.
DIDN'T I LEAVE HALF A DOZEN BOTTLES OF NAPA HERE?
CAB SAUV?
WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM?
OK, BAD QUESTION.
I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THEM.
TO YOU, MI QUERIDA.
SO YOU MEAN, WHATEVER WE WERE DOING,
YOU WERE THINKING ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT
WE WERE GOING TO GO TO BED LATER?
IT WASN'T THE ONLY THING ON MY MIND, OK?
HEY, I'M NOT A NYMPHOMANIAC.
IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SEX.
I WASN'T WORRIED ABOUT WHETHER I WAS GOING TO GET LAID OR NOT.
I WAS JUST WORRIED ABOUT...
WHAT?
I DON'T KNOW. YOU, US, I GUESS.
HOW YOU FELT, MAYBE?
MADE ME NERVOUS.
AND THEN, IF WE MADE LOVE,
EVERYTHING WAS OK.
I GUESS I THOUGHT THAT IT MEANT
THAT YOU LOVED ME, THAT'S ALL.
THEN I COULD JUST RELAX. I COULD JUST BE MYSELF.
WE WERE HAVING A GOOD TIME JUST BECAUSE WE WERE GOOD TOGETHER,
NOT BECAUSE WE WERE DESPERATE OR HORNY.
I GUESS I THOUGHT IT MEANT THERE WAS A REASON FOR US TO BE TOGETHER.
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU FELT LIKE THAT.
NO, I GUESS YOU DIDN'T.
YOU PUT THE CARROTS IN THE PASTA?
MONICA...
JESUS CHRIST. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
SO, YOU WANT TO GO TO DINNER OR NOT?
LOOK, IT IS NOT MY FAULT IF YOU CANNOT COOK.
I ALREADY KNOW YOU ARE AN INSENSITIVE BASTARD.
INSENSITIVE? GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE WAY I COOK,
YOU INVITED ME BACK. THAT'S WHY I WAS THERE.
STOP CALLING ME AND SENDING ME MESSAGES.
CALLING YOU? THAT MUST BE ONE OF YOUR OTHER BOYFRIENDS.
STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM ME! STOP INVITING ME OVER!
DIDN'T I TELL YOU TO STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM ME?
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE? YOU ARE AN ABUSER.
I'M A WHAT?!
YES. YOU HAVE ABUSED ME MENTALLY.
STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM ME.
YOU'RE THE ONE THAT ABUSES, NOT ME. I'M GOING. I'M GONE.
I WILL NEVER, EVER, EVERCROSS THAT THRESHOLD AGAIN.
I'M GOING. I'M GOING.
LEAVE ME ALONE. GET OUT OF MY LIFE!
BYE!
[DOOR SLAMS]
[GLASS BREAKING]
[CRASHING]
Monica: HI. ARE YOU SURPRISED?
ARE YOU?
SO AM I.
I'M SURPRISED AT MYSELF.
STEVE...
I MISS YOU.
I DO.
WELL, 6 WEEKS IS A LONG TIME.
NO, SEX--I MEAN, 6.
OH, MY PHONE, DARREN.
SAY WHAT AGAIN? MY--
OH. I MISS YOU?
OK. I MISS YOU.
OK?
ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?
OK.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY IT JUST BECAUSE I SAID IT.
I MEAN, I DIDN'T SAY IT SO THAT YOU--
YOU DO?
THAT'S NICE.
BECAUSE.
I HATE NOT SEEING YOU.
HMM.
I FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE ON THE PHONE.
WE DO BETTER ON THE PHONE, YOU KNOW?
HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT? WE DO.
WE'RE NICER TO EACH OTHER.
IF WE WERE ON THE PHONE AND ONE OF US WAS OUT OF TOWN,
IT WAS EVEN BETTER.
LOOK, IF YOU WERE IN AUSTRALIA RIGHT NOW,
I'D ASK YOU TO MARRY ME.
STOP THAT. DON'T BE DIRTY.
STOP IT.
STEVE, I'VE BEEN THINKING.
YOU KNOW, THERE USED TO BE REASONS FOR PEOPLE TO BE TOGETHER,
TO STAY TOGETHER,
LIKE STABILITY AND SECURITY AND EVEN KIDS.
BUT, YOU SEE, I DON'T NEED YOU FOR THESE REASONS NOWADAYS.
I MEAN, I CAN GET ALL THIS ON MY OWN IF I WANTED TO.
SO...
IF THERE ARE NO REAL REASONS FOR TWO PEOPLE TO BE TOGETHER,
THEN YOU'RE INTO UNREAL REASONS--
FANTASTIC THINGS LIKE HAPPINESS
AND GOOD COMPANY AND COMFORT AND UNDERSTANDING
AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT.
GOD, YOU WOULDN'T ASK THAT MUCH FROM A SAINT.
SO YOU LOOK AT THIS PERSON THAT YOU'RE HAVING THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH,
AND YOU THINK, WHAT THE HECK IS HE GOOD FOR, ANYWAY?
I HATE BEING WITHOUT YOU.
I HATE IT.
IT'S NOT RIGHT.
CAN'T WE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT?
I CAN'T TAKE IT.
I CAN'T.
PLEASE.

I USED TO WAKE UP...
I'D FALL ASLEEP, AND THEN I'D BE WIDE AWAKE,

WHY?
NOT BECAUSE IT WAS BAD, OK?
BUT BECAUSE BEING HERE WITH YOU...
EVERYTHING ELSE WAS FAR AWAY, JUST GONE.
ME AND MY LIFE AND EVERYTHING--

I WAS LOSING THAT HERE.
I'D WAKE UP, AND I'D THINK, "IT'S GONE.

BECAUSE HERE...

I DON'T KNOW WHO I AM HERE.
I GET LOST HERE.
IS THAT SUCH A BAD THING?
NO. IT'S NOT THAT IT'S BAD, ALL RIGHT?
IT'S NOT THAT IT'S GOOD OR BAD.
IT JUST TAKES OVER.
IT CHANGES EVERYTHING.
IT'S SUPPOSED TO CHANGE EVERYTHING, STEVE.

Monica: SO, HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?
Steve: I'VE BEEN GREAT-- NO, TERRIFIC.
HEY, IT WAS FUNNY SEEING YOU LIKE THAT AFTER ALL THIS TIME.
YEAH. I MEAN, THAT RESTAURANT...
WE WERE JUST LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO EAT. I TURNED AROUND, AND--
US, TOO.
AND THEN--I DON'T KNOW. THERE WE WERE.
YEAH. TURNED AROUND, AND THERE YOU WERE.
SHE WAS CUTE. WHAT'S HER NAME?
YEAH, MUFFY.
WELL, SHE'S A FRIEND, YOU KNOW?
SHE SEEMED REALLY NICE.
SO, IS IT SERIOUS?
KIND OF. YOU KNOW.
I MEAN, IT'S NONE OF MY BUSINESS. I WAS JUST CURIOUS.
OFF AND ON, ON AND OFF, YOU KNOW.
AND OTHER WOMEN, LIKE, YOU KNOW.
YEAH, WELL, I BEEN ENJOYING MYSELF, YOU KNOW?
ANYWAY, IT WAS NICE SEEING YOU.
WHO, ME? HIM?
OH, NO, NO. NOT SERIOUS.
WELL, ACTUALLY, I DON'T KNOW.
WHAT?
HE GOES TO THE GYM A LOT.
IT SHOWS, DOESN'T IT?
ABOUT 3 TIMES A WEEK, AND AEROBICS EVERY DAY IN BETWEEN.
VITAMINS?
ARE YOU JOKING?
THIS GUY HAS A SEPARATE SUITCASE FOR THEM.
MINERALS, AMINO ACIDS, ANTIOXIDANTS, YOU NAME IT.
WHEN I FIRST STARTED GOING OUT WITH HIM,
I THOUGHT HE WAS ON DRUGS.
HE KEPT POPPING THIS THING INTO HIS MOUTH.
I THOUGHT HE WAS A JUNKIE. IT TURNS OUT IT WAS BRAN.
YEAH, YOU HEARD RIGHT--BRAN.
THERE ISN'T A PART OF HIS BODY
THAT SOMEBODY DOESN'T DO SOMETHING TO AT LEAST ONCE A DAY.
HE HAS THIS SCHEDULE, YOU KNOW?
EVEN IF HE WANTED TO WORK, HE DOESN'T HAVE ANY TIME.
REALLY?
OH, HE'S GOT MONEY.
HE KEEPS GOING TO SWITZERLAND
TO CHECK ON SOME BUILDINGS AND GET HIS BLOOD CHANGED.
AND THEN HE GOES TO THIS DOCTOR
WHO SHOOTS HIM UP WITH VITAMIN C.
OH, MY GOD. I WENT WITH HIM ONCE.
HE PLUGS IN AN I.V. AND THEN STARTS PLAYING THE PIANO
AND TALKING ABOUT KANT AND VELIKOVSKY AND THEN BANKING--
HELLO?
YEAH? REALLY?
IT'S FUNNY. HE HAS EVERYTHING DONE TO HIM--
FACIALS, MANICURES, PEDICURES, HIGH COLONICS--
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS?
YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW.
Fantasy man: YOU'RE ON FIRE, YOU'RE SO HOT.
[FANTASY MONICA MOANS]
Monica: I SHOULDN'T BE SAYING ALL THIS.
IT'S NOT FAIR, BECAUSE I LIKE HIM.
Fantasy Monica: TWO.
Monica: I CAN SEE WHAT HE'S DOING.
HE'S FIGHTING IT. HE'S FIGHTING HARD.
GROWING OLD-- HE'S FIGHTING IT.
AND WHEN WE'RE TOGETHER, JUST THE TWO OF US--
I DON'T KNOW. HE HOLDS ON.
HE LIKES LIFE. HE WANTS IT.
HE FIGHTS FOR IT.
HE'S SELFISH, DISHONEST. I THINK HE LIES TO ME.
HE'S NOT VERY BRIGHT.
HE'S SORT OF FUNNY-LOOKING,
BUT HE LOVES LIFE.
IT'S SORT OF AMAZING IN THIS DAY AND AGE,
AND IT'S CONTAGIOUS TO BE WITH SOMEBODY LIKE THAT,
WHO JUST LOVES LIVING SO MUCH.
Fantasy Monica: OOH! YES!
Monica: ISN'T IT AMAZING?
IT'S AMAZING.
ISN'T IT?
Fantasy man: OOH!
Monica: ISN'T IT?
STEVE?
Fantasy Monica: MORE! OH!
STEVE?
I WANT TO GET MARRIED.
WHAT?
I WANT TO GET MARRIED.
WELL.
YEAH.
I DO.
OK.
I DO.
IF YOU DO, YOU DO.
I DO.
WHEN? RIGHT AWAY.
REALLY? YEAH. YEAH.
BEFORE I CHANGE MY MIND, YOU KNOW?
I THINK IT'S THE RIGHT THING.
I'VE THOUGHT ABOUT IT, AND THAT'S WHAT I THINK.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
WHAT DOES SHE THINK?
WHO?
OH. I DON'T KNOW. I HAVEN'T TOLD HER.
OH.
I'M TELLING YOU.
THANKS.
YOU.
I MEAN YOU.
YOU WANT TO GET MARRIED TO ME?
YES.
YOU WANT US TO GET MARRIED?
YES.
YOU AND ME?
YEAH.
I MEAN, IT'S WORKING, BUT IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK, YOU KNOW?
JESUS.
MAYBE I SHOULD START THIS AGAIN.
YOU WANT TO GET MARRIED TO ME?
YES. YES. LOOK, LOOK, LOOK.
I'M WORKING AT IT, OK?
I'M TRYING. I'VE BEEN TRYING, HONEST TO GOD,
AND I'M DOING OK-- BETTER THAN I'VE EVER DONE BEFORE,
BETTER THAN WITH YOU.
I SEE THINGS THE WAY THEY ARE.
SHE IS WHAT SHE IS.
SHE'S NOT WHO I THINK SHE IS.
SHE'S NOT WHO I WANT HER TO BE.
WE DON'T FIGHT. WE DON'T ARGUE.
WE TELL THE TRUTH.
I THINK WE TELL THE TRUTH.
IT SOUNDS LIKE WE'RE TELLING THE TRUTH.
WE SHARE, YOU KNOW? WE SHARE ALL OF IT.
IT'S VERY UNDERSTANDING, VERY EASY LIKE THAT.
SO FUCKING DULL.
I NEED SOME AIR.
HEY, I'M NOT COMPLAINING, IT'S NOT LIKE I'M COMPLAINING.
IF THAT'S WHAT IT HAS TO BE, THEN THAT'S WHAT IT HAS TO BE.
I UNDERSTAND ALL THAT.
COULD NEVER MAKE ANYTHING WORK WITH THE UPS AND DOWNS,
SO WHY NOT TRY DULL?
MAYBE DULL WILL LAST.
BUT DULL AS IT IS, IT'S GOING IN THE SAME DIRECTION.
A COUPLE OF WORDS HERE AND THERE,
A COUPLE OF LOOKS AND WRONG MOVES,
AND BANG! THE HONEYMOON'S OVER.
THEN WHAT? YOU BREAK UP,
FIND SOMEBODY ELSE, AND START ALL OVER AGAIN.
I CAN'T DO THAT. I DID IT WITH YOU.
I CAN'T DO IT WITH SOMEBODY ELSE.
COULD TAKE YEARS--
ALL THAT TIME TO GET SOMEPLACE WITH HER
THAT I'M ALREADY AT WITH YOU?
AND THAT HIT ME, YOU KNOW? IT HIT ME.
WE CAN'T QUIT, YOU AND ME.
WE HAVESOMETHING NOW. WE CAN'T JUST THROW IT AWAY.
OK, I ADMIT IT'S A FAILURE,
BUT IT'S OURS, YOU KNOW?
IT'S NOT THE END. THAT'S TOO EASY.
IT'S THE PLACE TO START FROM.
[BELL RINGING]
IT'S TWO AND A HALF YEARS OF OUR LIVES. IT'S AN INVESTMENT.
YOU KNOW, ALL THAT PAIN TO GET TO ZERO?
OK, WELL, NOW WE'RE HERE.
YOU KNOW? WE'VE GOT NOTHING. NOTHING WORKS.
WE'RE FINISHED-- TOTAL, COMPLETE.
EVERYTHING THAT WE HAD IS GONE.
YOU KNOW, WE HAVEN'T GOT A HOPE.
WE HAVEN'T GOT A PRAYER.
WE HAVEN'T GOT A CHANCE.
THAT'S IT. I REALLY THINK WE SHOULD GET MARRIED.
I'M NOT DOING ANYTHING ON THURSDAY.
YOU WANT TO GET MARRIED ON THURSDAY?
DON'T DO THAT.
WHAT?
DON'T MAKE JOKES.
WELL... MONICA...
MONICA!
Steve: THIS ISN'T EASY.
DO YOU THINK THIS IS EASY FOR ME?
COME ON. THIS IS IMPORTANT, ALL RIGHT?
PEOPLE ARE LIVING REAL LIVES.
PEOPLE HAVE SERIOUS PROBLEMS,
AND WE'RE STILL RUNNING AROUND LIKE WE'RE TEENAGERS.
"SHE LOVES ME, SHE LOVES ME NOT; I LOVE HER--"
WHO GIVES A FUCK, ALL RIGHT?
I WANT THIS OVER WITH.
I WANT IT OUT OF THE WAY--
FINAL, TOTAL, COMPLETE, MARRIED, THE TWO OF US,
SO WE CAN STOP WASTING ALL THIS TIME
AND DO SOMETHING WITH OUR LIVES.
THAT'S ONE WAY TO LOOK AT IT.
IT'S THE ONLY WAY.
WHAT ABOUT DIVORCE?
NO. NO. NO. NO. NO DIVORCE.
NO QUESTION OF DIVORCE. DIVORCE IS OUT.
THEN I GUESS WE SHOULD GET MARRIED IN IRAN.
YES. FINE. GOOD.
BUT I WOULD HAVE TO SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE WEARING A VEIL.
NO, ONLY IN THE STREET. THEY TAKE THEM OFF WHEN THEY'RE IN THE HOUSE.
OH, WELL...
NO, IRAN IS GOOD. IRAN IS THE ANSWER.
AT LEAST THERE, THESE THINGS MEAN SOMETHING.
OH, I DON'T KNOW. I THINK MEN STILL FOOL AROUND IN IRAN.
NO FOOLING AROUND. PENALTY OF DEATH.
REALLY?
YEAH. YOU FOOL AROUND, THEY CHOP OFF YOUR DICK.
DON'T LAUGH.
YOU MAKE ME CRAZY WHEN YOU LAUGH.
GOD, YOU'RE SO BEAUTIFUL.
AND I MISS YOU,
AND WE TRIED THIS BREAKING-UP SHIT,
AND IT JUST DOESN'T WORK.
MARRY ME.
PLEASE?
OHH...
DO YOU KNOW SOMETHING?
WHAT?
HONESTLY, IT DOESN'T SOUND SO BAD.
NO, IT'S NOT!
IT'S THE RIGHT THING.
IT'S THE WAY IT SHOULD BE.
EXCEPT--
NO, DON'T "EXCEPT." I KNOW I'M RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT. SUPPOSE WE DO THIS...
GOOD.
WE MAKE THIS COMMITMENT...
RIGHT.
TILL DEATH DO US PART.
ABSOLUTELY.
WHAT HAPPENS IF--
IT WON'T.
WHAT HAPPENS IF--
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
YOU'RE NOT LISTENING TO ME.
WHY SHOULD I LISTEN? I KNOW I'M RIGHT.
AND WHEN I'M RIGHT, I'M REALLY RIGHT.
OK?
SO...
JUST...
STOP TALKING...
AND SAY YES.
YES.
MMM...
YES.
HI. MY NAME IS MONICA,
AND THIS IS MY BOYFRIEND STEVE.
WE'RE GETTING MARRIED SOON,
AND WE'RE JUST GOING AROUND ASKING PEOPLE,
WHAT IS IT THAT WE CAN DO TO MAKE IT LAST?
WHAT KEEPS YOU TOGETHER?
HONESTY.
FRIENDSHIP.
TRUST.
GOOD SEX.
YOU HAVE A BODY...
GOOD SEX.
WHAT DO YOU THINK
IS THE THING YOU REALLY NEED IN A MARRIAGE?
I THINK YOU NEED TO LOVE YOUR PARTNER.
AND GOOD SEX.
I DON'T THINK YOU CAN MAKE A RECIPE. IT DOESN'T WORK.
A VERY TREACHEROUS INSTITUTION.
THE WORD "LOVE" ITSELF IS, AGAIN, A MYTH.
THAT'S WHY WE'RE ASKING PEOPLE--BECAUSE IT'S TOO CONFUSING.
THE SECRET TO A GOOD MARRIAGE IS PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING.
NOW, IF YOU WANT TO GO THE OTHER WAY...
Steve: WHAT WOULD BE THE THING THAT YOU THINK
WOULD IMMEDIATELY BREAK UP A RELATIONSHIP?
NOT COMMUNICATING WITH EACH OTHER.
JEALOUSY.
LYING.
Steve: YOU MARRIED?
NO, NOT YET.
YOU SHAVE YET?
NO.
ONE PERSON CAN'T POSSIBLY GIVE YOU
EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED AND THAT YOU WANT.
Monica: HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN ENGAGED?
TWO YEARS.
I'M NOT WAITING THAT LONG.
TWO SPIRITS MEET...
STARTS OFF HEAVY IN LOVE.
I DON'T SAY THAT YOU GROW...
AND GROW AND GROW AND GROW...
SEE, THAT'S WHAT I SAY.
MY WIFE LEFT ME FOR ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS,
WHOM SHE USED TO HATE.
[STEVE LAUGHING]
HE USED TO REPULSE HER,
AND ONE DAY, HE WAS THE LOVE OF HER LIFE.
Monica: WE WANT TO GET MARRIED AND HAVE BABIES.
DO YOU THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA?
WHY?
DO YOU THINK I SHOULD DUMP HIM?
DUMP HIM IN THE GARBAGE.
Steve: DUMP ME IN THE GARBAGE?
[STEVE MOANING]
EINSTEIN.
HMM?
THEORY OF RELATIVITY.
UH-HUH.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND IT?
UH-UH.
OF COURSE NOT. NOBODY DOES. NOBODY DID--
ESPECIALLY THEN, THE BEGINNING OF THE CENTURY.
IT WAS SCARY.
ALL PEOPLE COULD THINK WAS NO MORE STRAIGHT LINES,
NO MORE RIGHT ANGLES, NO MORE ABSOLUTE TIME.
MOTION WAS CURVED. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
I DON'T KNOW.
RIGHT.
SOMETHING HAPPENED TO THE WORLD,
AND NOBODY UNDERSTOOD IT.
IT WAS CONFUSING,
AND PEOPLE STARTED JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS.
THERE ARE NO MORE ABSOLUTES.
TIME, SPACE, GOOD, EVIL,
THE THINGS WE KNOW, THE THINGS WE BELIEVE IN, THE THINGS WE SEE--
WE THOUGHT WE UNDERSTOOD THESE THINGS,
BUT MAYBE WE DON'T.
MAYBE THEY'RE ALL RELATIVE.
YOU FOLLOW THAT?
YOU GOT THE REAL-ESTATE SECTION?
EINSTEIN WAS GOING CRAZY.
THIS IS NOT WHAT HE MEANT,
BUT THAT'S THE WAY MOST PEOPLE UNDERSTOOD IT.
MOVING DAY.
YOU THINK YOU HAVE FREE WILL--
YOU MAKE DECISIONS, YOU MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.
ACCORDING TO MARX, THESE ARE JUST BEHAVIOR,
SUPERFICIAL BEHAVIOR.
UNDERNEATH THIS BEHAVIOR,
THERE ARE PATTERNS DETERMINING OUR DESTINY,
AND HERE'S THE KILLER...
WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THEM.
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT WE DO,
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO THE PATH OF HISTORY.
WANT TO TRY AND TAKE A HOUSE AT THE BEACH THIS SUMMER?
CAN WE AFFORD IT?
NO...BUT AFTER THE WEDDING,
IF WE DON'T TAKE A HONEYMOON.
NO HONEYMOON?
OK. ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING ANYTHING TODAY?
AT THE SAME TIME THAT EVERYBODY'S REELING, WHO COMES ALONG?
SIGMUND FREUD.
THINGS WEREN'T BAD ENOUGH, RIGHT?
NOW, ALL OF A SUDDEN, WE WERE REPRESSED...
ON TOP OF EVERYTHING ELSE, GUILTY.
WHENEVER WE DID ANYTHING, IT WAS FOR THE WRONG REASON,
AND WHAT WE'RE REALLY DOING, WE'RE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR.
DON'T YOU THINK YOU'RE OVERSIMPLIFYING?
OF COURSE I'M OVERSIMPLIFYING,
BECAUSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT EITHER.
YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT.
THEY DIDN'T GIVE US ANYTHING TO UNDERSTAND EXCEPT...
NOW, BEFORE THESE GUYS, WE USED TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD,
AND NOW WE DON'T,
BECAUSE THEY PROVED TO US, BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT,
THAT WE DON'T UNDERSTAND THE WORLD. HMM!
MMM...
WANT TO GIVE ME A HAND WITH THIS?
HONEY, I'M DOING THE FRIDGE.
20th-CENTURY MAN...
DOUBT.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT NOW?
YOU, ME...EVERYBODY.
IT'S RIGHT THERE IN THE ARTS AND LEISURE SECTION.
THIS IS WHY WE AREN'T SURE OF ANYTHING.
THIS IS WHY WE FEEL CUT OFF, DRIFTING.
THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T MAKE A COMMITMENT.
THIS IS WHY PEOPLE LIE AND CHEAT AND STEAL,
AND THEY NEVER THINK THEY'RE DOING ANYTHING WRONG.
NOTHING MEANS ANYTHING TO US.
YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN?
ARE YOU SAYING YOU DON'T WANT TO GET MARRIED?
NO. I'M SAYING WHAT I'M SAYING.
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.
OK. READY? LET'S GO.
YOU'RE DRIVING.
Monica: DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD HAVE CHILDREN?
Steve: WHAT?
DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD HAVE CHILDREN?
I MEAN, IF WE GET MARRIED.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, IF? HA HA!
HA HA HA!

I DON'T KNOW.
MY MOTHER'S SENDING BACK THE WEDDING GIFTS.
I TOLD HER WHATEVER IT COST, WE'LL SPLIT IT--
YOU KNOW, THE CATERING, THE FOOD.
OK, SURE. I'LL CALL HER.
I WOULDN'T CALL HER IF I WERE YOU.
WHY NOT?
OK, CALL HER. JUST DON'T BE SURPRISED IF SHE ISN'T VERY NICE.
SHE THINKS IT'S YOUR FAULT.
WHY WOULD SHE THINK THAT?
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I TOLD HER.
OH...RIGHT.
I COULDN'T TELL HER THE TRUTH.
WHY NOT?
BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TRUTH IS.
SHE'S DISAPPOINTED?
THAT'S PUTTING IT MILDLY.
SHE WAS ALREADY COUNTING GRANDCHILDREN.
I'M SORRY.
DON'T KEEP SAYING THAT, PLEASE.
BUT I AM.
SO AM I. I'M SORRY I EVER LAID EYES ON YOU.
I'M SORRY YOU EXIST.
I HAVE A LONG LIST OF SORRIES, STEVE, BUT...
I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO THEM RIGHT NOW
BECAUSE NONE OF THEM REALLY MATTER
EXCEPT FOR ONE MAJOR, STUPID, UNBELIEVABLE MISTAKE,
AND THAT IS THAT I GAVE UP MY APARTMENT
TO COME AND LIVE WITH YOU.
FOR THAT, I AM TRULY, TRULY SORRY.
LOOK, YOU COULD JUST STAY HERE.
SURE.
YOU COULD.
SURE I COULD.
BUT WHERE WOULD YOU STAY?
WELL, HERE. I MEAN, COME ON, WE'RE BOTH ADULTS.
NO, WE'RE NOT.
ARE YOU CRAZY?

BESIDES, I CAN'T STAND THE SIGHT OF YOU RIGHT NOW.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
LOOK, I TOLD YOU...
I WAS CONFUSED...
SCARED.
I KEPT LOOKING AROUND AT ALL THOSE PEOPLE AND THINKING,
WHAT ARE THEY DOING HERE? WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE THAT'S SO IMPORTANT?
BEFORE, I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE A BIG PARTY, YOU KNOW?
EVERYBODY WILL DANCE AND HAVE A GOOD TIME,
AND WE'LL GO HOME, TAKE A COUPLE OF ASPIRIN,
GO TO BED, AND THAT'S THAT.
TILL DEATH DO US PART.
RIGHT. OK.
IT WAS YOURIDEA, STEVE.
I KNOW, I KNOW,
BUT SOMETHING HAPPENED, YOU KNOW?
I...I THINK IT WAS THE RICE.
WE NEVER EVEN GOT TO THE RICE.
WE NEVER EVEN GOT TO "HERE COMES THE BRIDE."
I KNOW, BUT I SAW THEM PASSING IT OUT IN THE CHURCH--
LITTLE BAGS OF SHIT THAT PEOPLE WERE GOING TO THROW AT US
BECAUSE WE WERE GETTING MARRIED.
I MEAN, THE CHURCH WAS BAD ENOUGH.
WHAT THE HELL WERE WE DOING IN A CHURCH?
AND THE CADILLACS...
I MEAN, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME THAT YOU WERE IN A CADILLAC?
I DON'T EVEN DRIVE.
I REALLY WISH YOU WOULDN'T TRY TO EXPLAIN THIS.
YOU'RE ONLY GOING TO MAKE IT WORSE.
IT JUST WASN'T RIGHT... ANY OF IT. OK?
IT WAS LIKE BEING ON ANOTHER PLANET.
I MEAN, TUXEDOES AND RICE AND CADILLACS AND CHURCHES--
WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH US?
IT'S A CEREMONY, STEVE.
IT'S JUST A SYMBOL.
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO ANALYZE IT.
YOU'RE JUST SUPPOSED TO DOIT!
AT LEAST IN THE SIXTIES, THEY HAD AN ALTERNATIVE, RIGHT?
IT WAS LIKE, OK, WELL, LET'S GET MARRIED IN THE MEADOW--
JUST US AND GOD
AND A COUPLE OF SPACED-OUT WITNESSES.
AT LEAST THEY HAD THAT. I MEAN, WHAT HAVE WE GOT?
ALL RIGHT. MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.
MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE DONE IT IN A BANK
WITH A WORD PROCESSOR AND TWO TAX LAWYERS.
MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE DONE IT IN CENTRAL PARK ON ROLLERBLADES.
MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE DONE A LOT OF THINGS,
BUT THE POINT IS, WE DIDN'T!
WE DIDN'T DO IT.
WE DIDN'T DO IT, DID WE?
NO.
RIGHT.
OK, THAT'S IT.
ENOUGH.
I'M FINISHED.
I'LL GET THE REST OF IT ON SATURDAY.

OK, DON'T TALK. JUST SIT DOWN.
I DON'T WANT TO SIT DOWN.
OK, DON'T SIT DOWN. JUST...JUST STAND THERE.

JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE TO THINK.
WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN?
JUST...
JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE.

I DON'T GIVE ANYTHING A CHANCE.
SO THINGS DON'T WORK OUT THAT WAY.

I BELIEVED YOU.
THAT'S THE BIG DEAL.
Steve: WHAT ARE THERE, RULES FOR THESE THINGS?
I'M THE ONE THAT'S CRAZY
BECAUSE I THINK YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
EVERYTHING HAS TO HAPPEN A CERTAIN WAY?
WHAT KIND OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL BULLSHIT IS THAT?
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
YOU'RE STUPID AND BLIND.
HEY, I'M NOT STUPID.
WOULD YOU LISTEN TO ME? WOULD YOU LISTEN TO ME?
NO, YOU LISTEN! YOU LISTEN!

I'M SORRY FOR HURTING YOU.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOU.
I JUST GOT TO SEE YOU.
PLEASE, I GOT TO SEE YOU.
I GOT TO TOUCH YOU.
[HANGS UP TELEPHONE]
IT WAS HARD.
IT WASN'T EASY.
I USED TO RUN INTO PEOPLE.
THEY'D TELL ME THINGS.
WHAT SHE WAS DOING.
WHAT HE WAS UP TO.
I DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW.
I WANTED TO KNOW, BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW.
I DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT,
ESPECIALLY IF IT WAS GOOD.
SOMETIMES IT WAS HARD NOT TO ASK ABOUT HER,
EVEN IF I DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR ANYTHING.
BUT THAT CHANGED.
AFTER A WHILE, THAT STOPPED.
I THINK SHE MOVED.
SHE MUST HAVE FINALLY FOUND A PLACE OF HER OWN.
I THINK HE WOULD HAVE STOPPED CALLING--
I MEAN, EVEN IF HE KNEW WHERE I WAS.
I WOULD HAVE STOPPED CALLING.
I MEAN...EVENTUALLY.
SOMEBODY HAD TO DO SOMETHING DEFINITE ABOUT IT.
I THINK WE HAD TO MAKE A CLEAN BREAK.
Monica: PEOPLE STOPPED TALKING.
Steve: I STOPPED ASKING.
BUT I KEPT THINKING ABOUT HIM.
SHE WAS STILL ON MY MIND,
AT LEAST... AT LEAST ONCE A DAY.
YOU KNOW, YOU DO SOMETHING...
YOU GO SOMEPLACE...
YOU SEE SOMEBODY...
OR YOU HEAR SOMETHING.
I KEPT THINKING, IF I COULD ONLY JUST GO THROUGH ONE DAY
WITHOUT HAVING HIS NAME GO THROUGH MY HEAD.
THIS WAS MONTHS LATER.
THAT WAS AFTER A YEAR.
[SIGHS] AND THEN YOU START TO THINK,
MAYBE I SHOULD JUST CALL HIM...
I THOUGHT OF CALLING HER...
JUST TO SEE HOW HE IS...
FIND OUT HOW SHE WAS DOING...
SAY HELLO.
BUT I DIDN'T.
I NEVER DID IT.
NO.
THE THING IS, I NEVER REALLY FIGURED OUT
WHAT WAS WRONG WITH US.
THERE WAS NEVER A REAL PROBLEM.
THERE WAS NEVER ANYTHING YOU COULD PUT YOUR FINGER ON.
YOU KNOW, TO THIS DAY,
I DON'T KNOW WHY WE BROKE UP.
I DON'T KNOW WHY IT DIDN'T WORK.
WE WERE REALLY STUPID.
AND I THINK WE WERE IN LOVE.
WE WERE REALLY IN LOVE.
YEAH. WELL, THAT DIDN'T HELP.
THAT MADE IT TOUGHER.
IT WAS HARDER TO LET GO.
YOU HAVE THIS EXPERIENCE OF FEELING SOMETHING
SO STRONG, SO GOOD,
AND AS BAD AS IT GETS, YOU CAN'T FORGET THAT,
AND YOU ALWAYS THINK THAT TOMORROW
IT WILL BE THE WAY IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING,
AND THE MEMORY GETS STRONGER AND STRONGER,
AND IT JUST MAKES EVERY DAY WORSE AND WORSE.
I THINK THAT WHOLE LOVE THING...
REALLY DID US IN.
IT SCREWED EVERYTHING UP.
AND THEN I WOKE UP ONE DAY, AND I REALIZED THAT
I HADN'T THOUGHT ABOUT HIM FOR WEEKS.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS DOING. I WASN'T DOING ANYTHING.
BUT WHATEVER I WAS DOING,
I WASN'T THINKING ABOUT HIM AT ALL.
Man: HEY, MONICA!
OH, HI, GEORGE.
I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WAS.
THERE WAS JUST ONE DAY IT...
IT JUST SORT OF OCCURRED TO ME.
Monica: IT SORT OF DAWNED ON ME.
I JUST SORT OF REALIZED...
I KNEW IT WAS OVER.
Man: YEAH, ALL RIGHT.
I JUST SORT OF REALIZED THAT IT WAS FINISHED.
IT WAS.
YEAH.
Man: FOLLOW ME, FOLKS. I'LL TAKE YOU TO RECEPTION.
THIS WAY, PLEASE.
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]
OH, MY GOD.
Steve: WELL, I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS YOU.
Monica: NO?
NO, I DIDN'T.
WHO DID YOU THINK IT WAS?
I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS ANYBODY--JUST NOT YOU.
WELL... YOU LOOK TERRIFIC.
THANKS.
OH, MY GOD.
HA HA HA HA!
YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE A FUSS.
I'M NOT. HA HA HA!
OK, LOOK, THEY AREADORABLE.
THEY'RE SO CUTE. MY BABIES-- THEY'RE ADORABLE.
STEVE, LOOK AT THIS. LOOK AT THIS!
THIS ONE IS MONICA. I CALL HER MONIQUITA,
AND THIS IS ELIZABETH HERE.
TWO OF THEM. ELIZABETH'S OLDER.
HMM...
ANYWAY, I WANTED YOU TO SEE THEM.
WHAT DOES HE DO, YOUR HUSBAND?
OH, ELECTRONICS.
OH? NO RENOIR, NO GAUGUIN?
NO, ELECTRONICS... OH, SORT OF.
HE DOES TEMPERATURE TESTING FOR COMPUTER PARTS.
UH-HUH.
HE INVENTED IT.
YEAH?
YEAH. IT'S A WAY OF TESTING COMPUTER PARTS
TO SEE HOW MUCH HEAT THEY CAN WITHSTAND.
GOOD.
HA HA HA HA HA!
I KNOW... BUT HE DOES WELL.
WHAT ABOUT YOU? HOW YOU DOING?
ME? I'M GOOD.
YOU STILL WORKING?
YES. I STOPPED FOR A YEAR FOR THE KIDS,
AND I WENT BACK TO SCHOOL.
I GOT MY MASTER'S DEGREE--
FRENCH LITERATURE...
20th-CENTURY.
THE GOOD STUFF.
THE GOOD STUFF, THAT'S RIGHT.
THAT'S TERRIFIC, YOU KNOW?
HOW ABOUT YOU?
I'M GOOD. I'M GREAT.
HOW'S THE STUDIO?
WE FINALLY MOVED.
OH, GOOD.
OH, THAT'S EXCELLENT.
THANK YOU.
SO WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN SANTA BARBARA?
A FILM.
WE'RE OVER NEAR CASTROVILLE HERE.
YEAH. I ACTUALLY DON'T DO MUCH STILL STUFF ANYMORE.
THAT'S TERRIFIC.
WE DO, LIKE, EDUCATIONAL AND DOCUMENTARY STUFF.
BUT, YOU KNOW,
I ACTUALLY DID TAKE SOME STILLS RECENTLY.
THEY'RE VERY NICE. WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE THEM?
YEAH, I'D LOVE TO SEE THEM.
ORGANICALLY GROWN.
YOUR HONOR.
OH, MY GOD.
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I SAID.
LOOK AT HIM.
IS IT A HIM?
OH, IT'S A GIRL.
OH...
SHE'S JUST A BABY.
MM-HMM...6 MONTHS.
YOU DIDN'T TELL ME.
NO, I...YOU DIDN'T TELL ME EITHER.
SHE'S BEAUTIFUL.
YEAH? YOU THINK SO?
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THIS.
IT WASN'T HARD. I HAD YEARS OF PRACTICE-- SOME OF THEM WITH YOU.
NO, IT IS HARD... BUT IT'S FUNNY,
BECAUSE AFTER YOU DO IT, YOU WONDER,
WHY DID YOU WAIT SO LONG?
YEAH.
THAT'S ENOUGH.
IT'S DISGUSTING ANYWAY.
HMM.
I DON'T REALLY SHOW THEM TO ANYBODY ANYMORE.
PEOPLE HATE IT, YOU KNOW?
THEY SMILE, BUT THEY HATE IT.
[KISSING]
IS SHE GOOD TO YOU?
THE BABY?
THE WIFE.
OH, YEAH.
OH, DUMB QUESTION.
NO, NOT AT ALL. I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN.
BUT SHE IS, YES.
I USED TO DO THAT ALL THE TIME, YOU KNOW?
I USED TO ASK PEOPLE STUFF LIKE
IF THEY WERE HAPPY OR STUFF LIKE THAT.
BUT I DON'T DO IT ANYMORE BECAUSE IT'S STUPID,
AND IT'S NONE OF MY BUSINESS.
ARE YOU HAPPY?
YEAH, I AM. I AM HAPPY.
THAT'S GREAT.
YEAH. I WORRY A LOT.
YOU KNOW, I THINK MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE BEEN...SMARTER.
I THINK I DID IT ALL WRONG.
I SHOULD HAVE... I DON'T KNOW...
I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN GIVE THEM WHAT THEY NEED,
YOU KNOW?
SOMETIMES I THINK I DON'T EVEN KNOW
IF I KNOW WHAT THEY NEED.
BUT THAT'S OK, IT REALLY IS, BECAUSE I ENJOY TRYING.
SOMETIMES I THINK IT'S WORKING, SOMETIMES I THINK IT'S NOT,
AND SOMETIMES I THINK IT'S JUST BEST NOT TO THINK.
RIGHT-- JUST DO IT.
FUNNY ISN'T IT, YOU KNOW?
I FEEL MORE ALONE NOW.
YOU KNOW, THAT SURPRISED ME.
IT REALLY DID.
I MEAN, THERE'S SO MUCH MORE GOING ON--
PEOPLE AND WORK AND THE BABY-- AND IT'S ALL GOOD,
BUT I STILL FEEL MORE ALONE.
WELL, IT DOESN'T GET ANY EASIER.
LISTEN, UM...
IT'S GETTING LATE.
YEAH. I BETTER GET MOVING.
YEAH. I GOT AN EARLY FLIGHT.
YOU'RE LEAVING TOMORROW?
YEAH.
OH...
IT WAS GOOD TO SEE YOU.
IT WAS GOOD TO SEE YOU, TOO.
I'M GOING TO HAVE THE WORST HANGOVER.
I BETTER GO, HUH?
YEAH.
Woman: SO, DO YOU HAVE
ANY GOOD OR BAD BREAKUP STORIES YOU CAN TELL?
Second woman: THE LOWEST WOULD HAVE BEEN
THE GUY RIGHT BEFORE HIM,
WHO ASKED ME TO MARRY HIM AND THEN WENT AWAY,
AND HE WANTED ME TO VISIT HIM.
SO I CALLED HIM WEDNESDAY NIGHT TO FIRM UP THE DETAILS,
AND A WOMAN ANSWERED THE PHONE--
AND THIS WAS AT MIDNIGHT,
AND SHE TRIED TO WAKE HIM UP.
LITTLE DID I KNOW HE WAS IN A DRUNKEN STUPOR
AND COULD NOTBE AWAKENED,
AND HE CALLED ME THE NEXT MORNING.
HE SAID, YOU KNOW, "HONEY, I'M REALLY SORRY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED."
I SAID, "YOU ASKED ME TO MARRY YOU.
"WHAT WERE YOU DOING WITH ANOTHER WOMAN AT MIDNIGHT
AFTER YOU PROPOSED TO ME?"
AND HE SAID, "DARLING, WE'RE NOT MARRIED YET."
Woman: THE WORST BREAKUP I EVER HAD TOOK TWO YEARS.
I MOVED ACROSS THE COUNTRY, 3,000 MILES AWAY...
Man: I HAD MY PICK OF WOMEN.
AND WHEN HE LEFT, WE WERE BACK TOGETHER,
BUT BY THE TIME HE MADE IT TO NEW YORK CITY,
WE HAD SOMEHOW BROKEN UP...AGAIN.
HE GOT A GIRL PREGNANT.
Man: I'M ALWAYS AT FAULT.
Man: SPREAD MY WINGS AND FLY A LITTLE BIT.
HA HA HA! DOES IT EVERY TIME,
AND EVEN THEN,HE STILL WANTED TO GO OUT WITH ME.
HE GOT HER PREGNANT, HE WAS GOING TO MARRY HER,
BUT HE SAID WE'D STILL STAY THE SAME,
MEANING WE'D STILL BE TOGETHER,
BECAUSE AT THIS POINT, WE WERE TOGETHER.
Woman: HE WAS LIKE, "BABY, I MADE A MISTAKE."
Woman: MY GIRLFRIEND AND I USED TO E-MAIL EACH OTHER.
IT WAS KIND OF A ROMANTIC THING WE USED TO DO
WHEN WE WERE GOING TO TWO DIFFERENT SCHOOLS,
AND THEN ONE NIGHT I GOT HOME
AND SHE BROKE UP WITH ME-- OVER E-MAIL.
AND THE REASON THAT SHE GAVE ME WAS THAT
SHE HAD MET SOMEONE ELSE...
Man: THAT'S WHAT GUYS DO.
...OVER E-MAIL.
