The first 200 lines.
Why doesn't anyone ever want their dates to be eager?
- I love eager. - I love hard-to-get.
Oh, you're a cat person.
Should we go somewhere and do gay stuff?
I'm not going back to your dad's house.
What? I stay in the garage.
It's so nicely secluded.
It's-it's like a resort.
Hey, I do want to, I'd hate to waste a boy.
- But I leave tomorrow. - You do?
- Yes. - Okay.
Well, does your garage have a shower?
It's got a hose.
There's gotta be a better way.
- A park? - Yeah.
Absolutely. Let's go to a park like our forefathers.
I was joking.
I would have done it.
So why does your dad live here and not in Australia with you?
Don't change the subject, we were making progress.
We've got... We've got a connection.
- Do we have a connection? - Yes, we've got a connection.
Well, I've barely spoken.
I think any feelings you think you have for me
are actually feelings you have for your own anecdotes.
Well, it's not like you volunteered much.
You're supposed to ask. That's what people do.
Fine.
What's your life like?
Well, now I don't wanna say.
I'm gonna accept that because I've just been so nervous
that I'm gonna have to do the listening.
To answer your question about me,
my dad abandoned my mother and I
because he got a woman in America pregnant
and then it turns out their daughter has autism,
and let's face it, I cannot compete with that.
That's like quite a lot of issues.
Well, um, can I ask why you chose to stay in Australia?
Absolutely you can ask.
My mother offered me money not to leave her. I was 12.
Sorry, is this getting too personal?
Are you kidding? Absolutely not.
It's just frustrating 'cause my dad used my sister's autism
as an excuse to leave us
while still looking like a nice guy.
Yeah, this is definitely getting too personal.
Oh. I mean, I don't...
Maybe he is a nice guy. Let's face it.
It's not like I got the chance to really get to know him.
Lol.
And then he had a second daughter with that wife.
When he always refused to have a second kid with my mum.
Yeah, Mum drinks a lot.
And then it all comes out.
His second wife died 11 years ago.
- Should we kiss again? - Yeah. Please.
- Okay. - Okay.
Yeah.
Okay, uh, how about this,
is your family gonna be out tomorrow?
- Yes. - I'll come over then.
I would like to get that in writing.
Hey, guys.
- Hey, guys, I'm here. - Here he is.
- Hey. - Hey.
Matilda, sweetheart, I'm going home today.
I know.
Well...
Do... do you think you're gonna miss me?
Yes.
Don't you think you should tell him?
I just did.
Genevieve.
Genevieve!
Genevieve, babe, I'm, uh,
I'm going back to Australia today
and I'd quite like some attention.
- Babe? - Genevieve, honey, you okay?
Can we please just pretend this isn't happening?
But it is happening.
We can see it.
I'm just doing laundry.
Did you wet the bed?
It does seem like you wet the bed.
Honey.
Look, fine, okay,
I got my period.
Your first period.
Now I can get pregnant.
We'll talk about that later.
Your first period? Aren't you like... 14?
Isn't that, like, a little old?
That's not the right thing to say.
There is no need to feel ashamed.
Menstruation is a natural
and a wonderful part of being a woman.
I'm gonna order cupcakes for breakfast.
You're overcompensating
because I don't have a mom, again.
Do you wanna hear a secret?
Yes, of course I wanna hear a secret.
I'm in love with Luke!
- Luke? - Luke Zachary Brown Jackson.
Tilda, no. Everyone is in love with Luke.
Freakin' teachers are in love with Luke.
Even I'm in love with Luke.
Oh, no. I-I can't ask out Luke if my sister's in love with him,
it'll tear us apart.
No, sorry, sorry. I-I'm not in love with Luke.
I don't have a heart.
Well, I know you have a heart
because I know you're in love with Leonard Jones!
Tilda, you can't just ask a random stranger out.
Why?
Well, how could he know if he likes you
if he's never met you?
I know he might say no.
And it won't hurt my feelings,
but to find love you have to make yourself vulnerable.
Tilda, please.
Don't...
You have to, like, flirt with him.
Do you even know how to flirt?
You're supposed to ask questions about themselves
and pretend that they're smarter than you.
- Did you see that on YouTube? - Yes!
Why are you still here?
Uh, yep, yeah.
No, no, no, go. Go.
What?
Dad, go to work and earn money.
Okay.
Dad, you're being so weird. What is going on?
Here we go.
Sit there.
Like this?
Perfect.
I don't think you're gonna be able to go today.
- Why? - Well...
Maybe you can, I guess.
I'm just not sure if you're gonna want to or not.
- Oh, I do. I do want to. - Okay.
Well, it's fine if you wanna go.
I mean, you seem to be doing really well in Australia.
- Thank you. - Yeah.
And you really don't have much going on here, so...
- I don't know if that's... - Sorry. No.
That came out wrong.
I've put this off a long time.
Uh, sorry.
So, the reason
you might wanna decide not to go...
- Yes? - ... is because...
I'm gonna die.
Soon.
I have a terrible cancer
which I will give you more information about later,
but this is the news that I need to tell you now.
No.
No.
Hey. See you. See you later, okay?
Hey, girls. Y'all look so cute today.
- Hey, what's up? - Genevieve.
Barb, Nikita, don't say anything. Genevieve...
what do you think of Barb's hat?
It's a nice hat.
I mean, you look like a Kardashian,
which is everything you've always wanted.
No. Genevieve, tell her the truth.
I-I did.
- No, you didn't. - I did.
Oh, please.
One doesn't experiment with hats in high school.
You know this, don't you?
Yeah.
You weren't homeschooled, were you?
Honestly sometimes I just hate her so much actually.
I mean, it's a fine hat, put it back on.
No, I-I won't put it back on.
- Honestly, Barb. - No. No.
Just because Tellulah was being a bitch about it...
- I'm not gonna put it on. - It's a good hat.
I'm not gonna put on the hat!
Okay. Fine.
How would you think that I would go to Australia after this?
That's like, of course, like, I'm not gonna, like...
- You're a weird dude. - You were so excited
about that research project, so I thought...
I feel a bit guilty that I'm not crying.
I hope you don't take it personally.
It's just, um...
I'm not, like, I'm not sure, like, I believe you yet.
Understood.
Oh, shit!
Don't you think this is an "airplane mode" moment, Nicky?
No, just listen, okay? Alex is here.
Um, Alex is a boy, um...
I think I love him although I'm not sure I know what love is.
And-and he was coming over to have sex before I left
