We Are Boats

Subtitles by explosiveskull

Got anything to drink?

I don't drink.

No.

Keep your clothes on.

How much do I owe you?

Well,

it's $300.

What's your name?

Cherry.

Cherry what?

Cherry Pie.

Don't you wanna know my name?

What's your name?

Robert.

Well, Robert,

usually, we'd be naked by now,

but since neither of us are taking our clothes off,

what do you want?

Just to talk.

What do you want to talk about?

It doesn't matter, just start talking.

I'm not much of a talker.

Are you loved?

Yes.

By whom?

By my honey bunny.

She loves me.

- You're a mother? - Yes.

And, a whore?

I have two jobs.

One doesn't pay so well.

Ask me if I'm loved.

Are you loved?

Have you ever felt like

you were meant to die a long time ago,

but somehow, you cheated death?

No.

Well,

I shouldn't be here.

All I do is hurt things,

and sometimes, just to see if I feel anything,

and I don't,

not ever,

and that's how I know

I'm not supposed to be here.

I think you need someone,

but more knowledgeable to talk to than me.

Like you.

You're here with me.

I bet your heart is racing right now.

Oh, and I'd see you thinking,

"How quickly can I get to the door before he stops me?"

All of that that you're feeling,

you wanna know what I'm feeling?

I'm feeling nothing.

This was a mistake.

- Mistake? - Yes, yes.

There's no such thing.

I don't know what's waiting for me,

everything that I've done.

I just wanna go home.

But I can't go alone.

Nothing.

There you are.

Where am I?

Home.

This is a way to give back.

There's so much to be done, Francesca.

There you are.

Hi, honey.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

They'll come home.

She knew if this duck was ever going to survive,

she would have to help him.

She named the duckling Time,

because she knew that's what it would take

to teach him how to fly.

Time wanted to give up many times,

but she refused to let him.

"You were put on this earth to fly,

"and fly you will," she told him.

So, Time marched on,

and she kept trying.

All interviewees,

please report to the correct designated room indicated

on your red invitation card.

Thank you.

Three helpful tips to conduct a successful interview:

always remember to be honest, be yourself,

and most importantly,

don't forget to smile.

Please have a seat.

Your interview wait time is approximately 47 minutes.

Did the interviews start yet?

And I didn't know I could speak English.

Which one do you wanna sleep with?

The duck.

The duck.

Okay, sweetheart.

There you go, honey.

Sir will see you now.

This job requires a lot of travel,

and I see here you have not done

any traveling at all, Francesca.

I've been through a lot.

And do you think life was meant to be difficult

or life was meant to be easy?

I haven't met anyone that would say life is easy.

Is your actual name Sir?

So, you think life is meant to be difficult?

Easy or hard, it doesn't really matter.

You're writing that down?

I am.

And, you think because I haven't traveled much,

it's a disadvantage.

Is it not?

I don't think I have to leave to see the world.

I mean, I've encountered every kind of man,

woman, too.

In my line of work,

the world came to me,

and that world isn't very pretty.

I read that in your file.

You know what? Not everything in there's 100% accurate.

There are two sides to every story.

Oh, and what certain story are you referring to?

All of them.

What is it that you think we do here?

Something about transitioning.

Mm hmm.

It involves helping people, and I'd be good at that.

I've helped a lot of people.

Well, and I think you can help a lot of people,

and you do definitely have

that advantage over other applicants,

but in every other field,

you are by far the least qualified person I have seen today.

I'm the least qualified in everything I do.

So, why should I consider you?

Because I won't quit.

Ah, and you think that all the other applicants will quit?

Well, there's an opening.

Somebody didn't do their job.

Why are you really here?

- I told you. - No, you didn't.

Honesty is very important here.

Well, if you already know why I'm here,

why do I have to say it?

If I were to consider you for this job,

you can't see her.

Do you understand that?

Not yet,

but if I do a good job,

then I can see her?

That's true, but...

That's why I will get the job done.

I will do whatever it takes.

I need to see my little girl.

One last question.

You're in a desert,

and there's a turtle on its back dying.

Do you blame the turtle

for putting himself in this position?

Do you blame the desert

for setting the scene of its death,

or is it the sun

for causing its death?

That's a stupid question.

is that your answer?

No, the answer is there's no answer,

because the turtle doesn't die.

If I'm in the desert,

I don't blame someone.

I just flip the fucker over.

Done.

Random or not, I intervene.

But the turtle is still in the desert.

Well, it found a way in.

It could find a way out.

Like you in my office.

Good day, Francesca.

Can I ask you a question?

What is your question?

How is she?

She's a bright little girl with a bright future.

That's all I can say at this point.

Why do you insist that we meet down here?

I work down here,

and it keeps me fresh.

I don't get that lost, puppy dog look.

I do not have a lost, puppy dog look.

Well, you do, but that's why I'm here,

so I can do the dirty work,

and you can hand over a folder, so...

Francesca,

your way of getting things done have many concerned.

Do I get the job done?
