The first 200 lines.
What's that?
Oh, thank you so much for noticing.
Stop it.
Anyone ever tell you you have such beautiful skin?
I just want to move your... Is this okay?
Just move your hair just out of your face just a little bit. There.
What...
You wanna...
We can't do that.
- We can't do that here... - Who are you talking to?
Nobody.
All right, well...
How's it going?
Great. Um...
Just having a little trouble with this arm.
All better.
Fuck.
Oh, hey, can we get some more chairs?
It's gonna be a big group.
Yeah, sure. Uh...
See, it's sort of a double celebration.
I got some really good news today, and it's my birthday, so...
Oh, okay.
So do you guys do, like, little cakes?
Yeah, I don't know. Let me check the kitchen.
Do you need it now?
No, later.
I'll cue you.
Okay.
Well, fuck him and his...
Yeah. I gotta go.
- Hey. - There you are.
Um, I was afraid you were gonna be late.
Everyone else is on their way.
Uh, I gotta take off soon.
Claire's got me on lockdown tonight.
Her parents are in town. They wanna see the baby.
She's gonna be the bitch about our family dinner, so...
Heard about the account.
Fuckin' a.
Right?
Moving on up.
Yeah. Yeah, I'm excited, but...
I was really hoping you'd be able to stay.
I know. I would love nothing more than a beer with you. You know that.
I have to, uh,
take a rain check.
But it's kind of a double celebration today.
It's my birthday.
Yeah, I know. It's the... it's 15th, and it's...
- The day that you... - It's the 13th.
13th. I should get you a drink. Is this paid for?
- Yeah, I got it. I... - Okay.
Maybe I can slip away tonight,
take one of those midnight jogs, stop by your place.
I'll wear that pink thing.
Ooh.
And if you're good,
maybe I'll let you open that present.
Hey, baby. In the car.
Absolutely.
You're the boss.
Is that Jen?
Jennifer Parker.
Oh, shit. How are you doing?
Jerry?
Garrett.
Right. Right.
Of course. Um, yeah. I'm...
Doing well. Yeah. How about yourself?
Really good. Really good. Thank you.
Living downtown now. Just finished up my classes.
I went here about my residency, you know.
Do you live down here too?
No. No. Palisades.
Just bought a condo. It's perfect.
Close to work.
Hey, if you're here on your own,
you're welcome to come and join us over there.
No, no, no. Sorry.
I'm just waiting for a few people.
Cool. Well, tell you what,
why don't you give me a call some time.
It'd be great just to hang out.
Have you got my new number?
Yes. I sure do.
- Okay. - Okay.
Bye.
Hey. There you are.
Sorry we're late. The traffic was cray cray.
All right. Well, that's why I suggested leaving early.
Yeah.
But anyway, uh, thanks for coming.
I really just got here myself, so...
How's it going? I'm Garrett.
Just an old acquaintance of mine from college.
He was just dropping by.
So, how great was that conference call?
That is when I thought that we better shift to Houston instead of Denver
to re-synergize orders in the Midwest,
which is why we are now,
the proud partners of their entire western us business.
- Wow. - Isn't that incredible?
- Mm-hm. - Mm.
Uh, we better get going.
Early morning.
- Yeah, we better go. - Just one more drink.
I mean, I'm really sorry.
But thanks for putting all this together.
Great. Yeah, no. Of course.
- I'm pretty beat as well. - It's a P.M. thing.
Right. Long weekend. Um...
I'll see you guys Monday.
- Great. - Great. Bye.
Do you want me to sing or something?
Today's modern woman expects to see in the mirror
what she feels like on the inside.
We are dedicated to building a better you.
So come on by.
I hate this feeling.
Skin crawling, bad breath.
Thirsty.
Hard to breathe.
Feeling puffy and gross.
Where am I?
Arms heavy, splitting headache.
I am so hungover.
What happened last night?
I hate waking up at a strange place.
Okay, I was at the bar,
and I went home.
Right?
I can't remember.
Oh, god, here it comes.
Mm.
It's never been this bad before.
It's gonna be a long day.
Don't feel like myself.
Where's my cell?
Okay, new rule.
No more crashing in strangers' basements.
I can't see anything. Where is everyone?
Whoa...
My ears won't stop ringing.
What a way to start 25.
I can't fucking see anything.
Maybe I'll see when I put my contacts in...
Need to splash some water on my face.
Find my purse, check in with work...
My sweats...
Do a marathon of CSI...
Wear my dress, go home, check on my dog...
And then I'm gonna find out what the fuck happened last night.
What the fuck is this?
Just talking...
go home...
Get out of my head.
Knock it off, knock it off. I'm just imagining this.
Who's there?
Someone please help.
- Hello? - I'm not sick.
I'm not sick. I'm not sick.
Who said that?
How should I know?
Tell me what's happening.
Where are we?
Whoa...
I'm Jennifer.
Who else is here?
Oh, hi, is it my turn?
I'm Ellie.
Madeleine. I'm Madeleine.
Okay, is that... That everybody?
- I wanna wake up now. - Where are we?
I wanna move. Why can't I move?
Same reason the rest of us can't.
We're inside the same body.
Like multiple personalities?
No, idiot. You're attached to me.
This is my body. I... See, I can move my hand.
Wait. The foot. I'm moving it.
Will you two kindly shut up and let me take control?
Why do you get to drive?
Because I'm in charge.
- Like hell you are. - Back off.
Hey, wait, guys, stop fighting, okay? You're pulling us apart.
I think I just heard something.
You think? Or you did?
- Shh, quiet. - Oh, god!
Whoever did this to us is still here.
Hey, we need to go now.
Don't panic.
I don't wanna die.
Okay, we just need some more time to figure out
how this thing works. Agreed?
On the count of three.
One...
Two...
Three.
What the hell is that?
