- There you go.

- Thank you.

Right, I'm gonna

head off now, mom.

All right, darling.

Okay.

Have a lovely time,

well as much as you

can at a funeral.

I just want to pay

my respects, you know.

Oh, honey, you

didn't even know him.

Listen, I love

you very much, okay?

The nurse will be in

at 10 a.m. every day,

if not call me, okay?

I'll be back on Friday,

I'm not sure what

time though so...

Yes, yes, I know, don't worry.

Okay.

I'll see you soon.

I'll see you soon.

Don't forget to check the

oil, its a long journey.

Yeah, already done it.

[coughs]

And Cassy sent

me a list of things

that sunny doesn't like to eat.

Huh?

Cassy is very protective

of her because of her...

Whoa, what's Cassy?

Cassandra, Jason's ex.

I left you a post-it-note.

A post-it-note, where?

Right, okay, start

from the beginning.

You're taking her daughter,

Sunny, to the funeral.

You're driving up together.

Ryan.

No fucking way.

Ryan.

Mom, I don't even

know who Cassandra is,

let alone her daughter

and also this is supposed

to be a solo trip,

that's why I'm

leaving a day early.

That's kinda the point.

Jason's ex-wife.

Who's Jason?

What, aunty Sue's son

Jason, aunty Sue's.

Look, I used to do

pilates with Cassy

and she asked me to do it.

It's a two day

journey to Thurso.

It's miles away, it's

in bloody Scotland,

and Cassandra is so

protective of Sunny,

she wouldn't be comfortablewith her going with anyone else.

And she trusts me

and I trust you.

You're doing this.

I raised a gentleman.

[coughs]

Mom, I don't know

her, it will be awkward.

You're a very

easy-to-talk-to young man.

[moans]

You're affable.

[moans]

[laughs]

Fine, fine.

Just text me her address,

don't post me a

bloody post-it-note.

Thank you, take your coat.

- Oh, mom, it's hot.

- Ryan.

I love you.

Love you.

[mouth smacking]

Delicious.

See you, mom.

[sighing]

[upbeat acoustic music]

I'm not letting my daughter

go to Scotland on her own.

What are you thinking?

Our daughter, and she

won't be on her own,

he's a good boy.

Okay, he's a man.

And how do you know

what he's like?

I met him once, he

was five at the time.

What if he mistreats her, Cass?

Jason, stop, he's family.

Is he, is he though?

Listen, this is

hard for me as well,

we have to put our

differences aside

and I think it

might be good for us

to loosen the leash a bit.

She can't look

after herself, Cassy.

She won't be by

herself, Jason.

[groaning]

You know why I'm

letting this happen.

I can't...

I can't have another incident.

It tore you and me apart

and I don't want to

lose her as well.

[sighing]

Come here.

[distant pop music]

[Cassy] Okay, sweetheart,

you've got everything,

haven't you?

[Sunny] Mm-hmm [affirmative].

You're gonna stay safe?

Be good.

- Jesus Christ.

- I know

I have to text you

every 30 minutes.

[Cassy] Every 30 minutes.

Nah, fuck it.

[car engine roaring]

Sorry, mom, she wasn't there,

she, uh, I couldn't

find her house,

there was a really complicated,

there was a fire.

[sighing]

God, bollocks.

Hey, are you Sunny?

Mom, I can do it on my own.

Okay, bye, bye.

[birds chirping]

Hey, I'm Ryan.

Why did you drive

off and then come back?

So, I got us some coffee,

'cause, you know,

early start and all.

I got it with milk and sugar

because, you know, I

didn't know what you like.

It's good coffee.

I hate coffee.

Oh, okay.

[laughing] That's fine.

It's hot, isn't it?

It's ah, hey, in a minute,

we could stop for

some ice cream.

Ice cream.

My favorite flavor is

mint chocolate chip.

It's...

Oh, that's rank.

So how are we related then?

What, we're cousins or?

No.

Are you Australian?

Yes.

Why are you Australian?

Because I'm Australian.

My mom's your mom's sister's

ex husband's ex wife.

Oh, okay, so that makes me,

so what we're like second

cousins twice removed?

Or are we even related?

No, that would make me

your ex, ex, cousin-in-law.

Oh, small world.

[laughing]

Our kids would be fine.

Huh?

If we were to have

children together,

they would be

normal, not like me.

Oh, ah, good.

Good.

You're kinda blunt.

Yes, I have autism.

Huh.

♪ You're a clever girl inside ♪

♪ And you just turn to say ♪

♪ Oh ♪

♪ It's you and me ♪

♪ We were so young and foolish ♪

♪ You and me we came to sound ♪

♪ Home is anywhere ♪

♪ Any place you find ♪

You hungry?

There's a stop

coming up right now.

We can grab some food.

Okay, well, I'm hungry.

[indicator beeping]

[food crunching]

Yeah, I eat a lot.

So, what do you do?

Like hobbies or?

Come on, man, it's

a two day journey,

just give me

something, anything.

I just, I'm...

Art.

Art, art, okay.

Okay, art, cool.

What kind of art?

Pine cones.

Pine cones?

Mm-hmm [affirmative].

Yeah, I collect them

from the local forest

and then I spray them with

pesticides and paint them silver.

And then I sell them on eBay

or at a local market with

an older lady called Janice.

Right, okay, and what,

and people buy that?

I mean like, I don't know,

I mean where do you put them?

Like what on the mantle or?

In a bowl, Christmas

time's really good money.

They hang them on the trees.

Oh.

Is there a wake?

After the funeral, a

celebration of death?

What, the wake?

I mean usually it's

celebration of someone's life.

Yeah, but in this case

it's a celebration of death

because it's good that

he's dead, because

I guess it could be both.

Wow, okay, what'd

he do to you?

Well no, I don't know him,

I just know he was an alcoholic.

So?

So he's like my

neighbor's cat.

It was old and it

couldn't breath

and they just kept it alive.

So I put it to sleep.

Snapped its neck.

[crunching]

[cat screaming]

You, what does that have to,

wait, what, you

snapped its neck?

Yeah, it was quick.

That's not your

decision to make.

Well, it was the right one.

Wow, okay.

[laughing]

You snapped its neck?

[laughing]

You snapped its neck?

You snapped a cat's neck.

Yes.

[laughing]

Stop that.

[laughing]

Stop.

Hey, hey, hold on.

Wait for the second click.

So autism.

That is, I mean, hey, so

that's why you don't talk.

Or you struggle to talk.

I mean I don't know

much about autism.

What is it you can't do?

And also, like when you

get like a boyfriend,

or such, are they

like autistic too?

What?

So, are they like,

are they like autistic too?

Why do they have

to be autistic?

Well, because then, you

know, you've both got autism.

And then when we come together

we glow as our

autism intensifies?

No, no, no.

Come on, I mean like,

so for example, you couldn't

flirt with someone like me,

because that's me

taking advantage of you,

because, you know,

you're disabled.

Are you fucking

serious right now?

What?

First of all,

autism is something

that affects how easy it is

to form a relationship

with someone,

so while I might be at a

biological disadvantage,

there's still 100% more

likely to get laid than you.

Second of all...

Whoa, I didn't mean...

Do I not have a brain?

- Can I not say no?

- Yeah, no, of course.

I'm not incapable, if

I wanna talk to a guy,

then I will when I'm ready.

- Yeah, of course.

- If I want to be

- spontaneous then I will.

- I didn't say, I didn't mean.

Of course, I didn't, what?

That's fine, literally

I'm just saying

I'm unfamiliar

with the condition.

Clearly I've struck a nerve.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Undo your trousers,

I'll toss you off.

What the fuck?

I want to, you're not

taking advantage of me.

What the hell is going on?

I have something to prove.

No, no, you don't, you

have nothing to prove.

You have nothing to prove.

Jesus Christ.

Careful, there's

incoming traffic.

It was stationary.

Am I raping you?

No, you just have

nothing to prove.

I wasn't even, I didn't.

I actually want to do it.

It's okay, I just,

I wasn't ready.

[moaning]

I just can't believe

how ignorant you are.

[heavy breathing]

Well, I've got some good news,

the breathalyzer

came back negative,

which I found a

little surprising.

I mean you were veering

all over the road.

You weren't on your mobile

by any chance, were you, sir?

No, sorry, I was distracted.

Distracted?

Okay, well, I won't

detain you any longer.

Final word of advice,

the cars do tend

to fly along here,

just be a little careful

when you pull off, alright?

[humming]

♪ I can't see all

obstacles in my way ♪

[sighing]

Do you know this guy?

Who?

The guy whose funeral it is?

No.

But he's family and

family is family, I guess.

Yeah I guess.

I think I need my SATNAV.

He killed himself, you know?

Yeah, no, I heard.

Why did he kill himself?

Why are we talking about this?

Sorry.

Well, yeah, it's just

so heavy, isn't it?

Like, I mean how can

I even answer that?

I don't know, I just,

maybe people feel like they

fuck up one too many times,

I don't know.

Yeah but everybody

fucks up, right?

Yeah, I guess so.

I mean, everybody

does stupid shit.

Like my friend, Carly,

she let a guy give

her a mushroom stamp.

Oh yeah, what's that?

A mushroom stamp?

Yeah?

It's when a guy grabs

the stem of his penis

and he dabs his balls into shit

and then he gently presses it

on the other person's forehead

like a stamp, a mushroom stamp.

Oh right, yeah,

no, that makes sense.

That's fucking vile.

Yeah, well, it's not my thing.

Everyone does stupid things.

♪ Baby ♪

♪ And you can save me ♪

♪ Oh, was it something

that I said ♪

You look tired.

Huh?

Oh, yeah, nah, I didn't

get much sleep last night.

And I've fucking

cum, haven't I? So.

Well, we should stop

at the first hotel.

Yeah, we could,

but we're still over a

hundred miles away, so.

Why so far?

'Cause it's long way to go.

I just want to push on,

just get there quicker.

Okay.

But there's no rush, but okay.

Oh, shit.

Oh, shit.

Yeah, he put diesel in it.

Yeah, I know it's color coded.

I was surprised too.

He said the car would

be ready to go tomorrow.

It's okay, it's

like a B&B place.

There's a toilet and a sink.

It's kinda like the one

outta that movie "Psycho".

Anyway, mom, I gotta go.

Bye, yeah, bye, bye.

I hate people that

say bye three times.

Yeah, it's

inefficient, isn't it?

Bye, it's meant to be the end.

Like bye.

Bye.

[crying]

What the hell's going on now?

Are you okay?

Sometimes I cry.

This place is so dirty,

do you have gloves?

Ah no, no this is

all I could afford

at last minute notice.

I think I might sneeze.

Okay, go on then.

Not now.

Okay.

[sighing]

[heavy breathing]

What does your mom do?

Not much at the moment.

Is she lazy?

No, she's got cancer.

Oh, I hope she

gets through it okay.

You live with her don't you?

- Mm-hmm [affirmative].

- She must really hate

that you've come to

this man's funeral.

But as I said, it's good.

He's family and family's family

so it doesn't matter

how well you know him.

[TV] Hello there, sir.

I'm here to talk to you

about our mortgage fee.

[laughing]

Okay, I won't take up

too much of your time.

Take the wheel.

I said take the wheel!

I don't drive.

Jesus.

[sighing]

First shag then?

First shag?

Ashleigh Moore, I was 16.

Yeah, lost my virginity same

day as my mate, Sandeep.

Lads, lads, lads.

I was 14.

14? I hope he was as well.

He was 13.

13?

What's with the

pink steering wheel?

Jesus, you've perked

up since yesterday.

It's good, the pink

steering wheel,

it's, oh well,

it's ironic really.

Is it, don't most people

think that it's gay?

Yeah.

Is that the irony,

that you're not gay?

Yeah.

So it's like you're so manly

that you can drive around

with a pink steering wheel?

Yeah.

Are you gay?

Yeah, ah, no.

Is that a cock

on your key chain?

Yeah, no, I'm not gay.

[laughing]

I'm not gay.

Well if that's not gay,

then that definitely is gay.

That's, I'm not, shit.

[cars crashing]

[loud exhaling]

[car alarm roaring]

Shit.

I'm so sorry.

What the fuck are you doing?

Are you fucking blind?

- I honestly...

- Hey.

Don't touch my fucking car.

What the fuck are you

doing on the road?

I'm so sorry, it's

completely my fault.

Of course it's

your fucking fault.

Hey, are you going

to pay for this?

Pay for what?

Are you demented, it's dented.

No, it's not.

You want to play big man,

just because you do

50KG on a bench press?

Hey, do you wanna fight?

Do you wanna fight, you

fucking cocky prick?

No, no, of course I

don't want to fight,

I don't want any

trouble, please, I just.

Wait, 50KG? [laughs]

I mean add a one

in front of that.

Actually my PB was 140,

although my form was terrible.

So on paper...

You fucking smart aleck, hey?

No, I don't know

why I said that.

I'm so sorry.

Hit him.

Let's just move on

with our day, okay?

Because I'm taking full

responsibly for this,

I'm so sorry.

No, that was so uncalled for.

Twat, give me your

details, you prick.

Oh.

You want to fucking fight?

Do you want to fucking fight?

- No, no.

- You got the wrong

fucking guy today.

- [groaning]

- Oh!

I didn't...

Don't, don't.

Sorry.

What was that?

You struggle to

have a conversation

but you'll happily punch a man

in the spine for no reason?

Well, I didn't like the

way he was talking to you.

Yeah, but that's my problem.

It's not your problem.

My heart rate is

through the roof.

But in like an exciting way.

Not like when you go swimming

and sometimes you hold

your breath underwater

and it gets to a point

where you're like

just a few more seconds

and I'm a goner.

What?

Do you like swimming?

Nah, I never learnt.

Where are we stopping tonight?

Newcastle.

Is it nice?

Yeah, you never been?

You know there will

be some nice bars.

We could grab a drink?

I know I could

certainly use one.

I don't drink.

What, not even orange juice?

No, well, obviously

I drink orange juice.

Well then fine,

then we'll pump you

full of shoog, won't we?

Really?

Yeah.

Like a legitimate bar,

where there's bar fights?

Ah, I bloody hope not.

[upbeat club music]

Awesome, there we

go, are you good?

Yeah.

Oh, excuse me, can I

have a whisky, please?

Because, because why not?

[laughing]

And an orange juice, please.

[Bartender] No worries.

Cheers, man, thank you.

This place is incredible.

Alright darling, fancy a ride?

I've never been

anywhere like this before.

It's just a Monday.

It does smell funny.

It sure does.

Cheers man, thank you so much.

Thank you.

Cheers.

Can I tell you something?

You are genuinely one of

the most interesting people

I've ever met.

Sorry, I'll try to

stop talking so much.

No, no, hey,

it's a good thing,

it's a great thing.

It's awesome, you're so

quirky without even trying.

It's awesome.

You're genuinely very funny.

Is this because I

killed the neighbor's cat?

No, stay away from my pets,

but stuff like that,

stuff like that, like you do

what most people wouldn't.

Despite it probably being

the kinda right thing to do.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, yeah.

I killed that cat real good.

Yeah, again, the

cat thing is kind of

- like a bad thing.

- Would you lie to me?

About what?

Anything.

I don't know, probably.

No, I don't think you would.

I mean, I have no reason to.

If you're being

annoying, I'll tell you.

Okay, I just wish that

sometimes people were as blunt

with me as I am them.

It's just that my parents, they,

well they don't really think

that I can handle life,

so they don't let

me do anything.

But then how are you

going to live and learn

if they don't let

you live and learn?

Yes, did you just come

up with that on your own?

Yeah, I guess.

Wow, can you tell

my parents that?

No, no, that's for you to do.

Well I do, but

then I get angry,

and then they pass

that off as rage,

which is commonly

associated with autism,

but it's actually not that.

It's just the way that I feel.

I don't know, man,

it sounds tough.

I mean they let you

come with me, though?

That's, I mean, oh,

that's huge, surely.

Yeah, but that was

for the wrong reasons.

Well, because I was in an

accident not that long ago,

so it just made

them worry about me

even more than they already do.

But they knew that

I had to do this

that I had to just

get out and do it.

Yeah, I don't know.

Hey, how would you

like the tiniest,

tiniest bit of prosecco

in your orange juice?

The tiniest bit.

No.

No?

No, it's just,

what's that drink?

- Mimosa.

- It's just a,

oh, it's a mimosa.

It's just a mimosa.

Come on, a little mimosa,

wanna little mimosa?

Little, just a little?

Yes.

Yes?

Yes.

Yes?

Yes!

Yes!

Yes.

One mimosa please, sir.

And one more whisky please, sir.

[Bartender] Coming right up.

No, no, no, I'm

driving tomorrow,

so it's probably best

I kinda call it quits.

Sexy, baby!

No.

Yes, yes.

No.

Yeah, you've got

them big teeth.

You like them?

Oh, yeah, they are like mine.

Look at my front two teeth,

they're big like plates.

Wow, big.

Yeah, thanks, I

grew them myself.

So how come you're Austrian?

Ah, [puffing] ah,

Australian?

Dad.

Dad?

You know I can do the accent?

No you can't, everyone thinksthat they can but you can't.

No, I can, I can.

Listen, are you ready?

[coughing]

Ah, see them girls over there?

Ah, yeah, I'm

gonna go kiss them.

I'm gonna go kiss them.

No.

No?

Yeah, that was...

- Yeah?

- That was pretty good.

Yeah, I was good, see?

Yeah.

[laughing]

One more round, officer.

No, no, no, please

no, please no.

So how come you had boyfriends,

but you're not allowed

out of the house?

I did it before that they

thought that I would want to.

So it was out of spite.

Spite.

Whoa, well.

Would you date me?

No.

No, no.

- Why?

- No, no, no, no, no.

Why not?

No.

Why not?

Too much work,

you're too much work.

Give me a kiss.

No, no.

Kiss, kiss.

No.

Kiss.

No.

[kissing]

Hmm.

- Ugh.

- Now me.

That's gross.

Me.

[laughing]

[laughing]

No, we can't do

this, we're family.

What?

We're family.

No, what, I gave

you the hand job.

The good old fashion.

[laughing]

I think she might be retarted.

Oh, no.

We both wanted it.

Cool.

We're not family,

it wasn't sexual.

[Bartender] Okay.

I didn't rape.

Yeah, okay.

Blood cum cousins?

Yeah.

You getting a bruise?

Yeah.

[loud inhaling]

Ow.

He's going where we're going.

So he is, well let's

pick him up then.

What, wait, why?

Well, why not?

We're going to the same place.

I'll just take a turn up

here and we'll go get him.

No, what, why would we, no!

Why not?

He's in a wheel chair, he'd

probably really appreciate it.

Well, he got there

somehow on his own.

So?

So what if he smells?

He won't smell.

Well what if he's dirty?

So he's dirty.

Well what if he kills us?

Well, he won't kill us.

Obviously I'll get out

and I'll suss him out.

If he's got a dodgy vibe,

I won't let him in the car.

Well this was just

meant to be the two of us.

It was just meant

to be the one of us.

Hey, yeah, we're

going past Thurso,

so if you want a lift,

you can come with us?

Yeah, no worries.

I'll take your stuff

to the car, yeah.

[upbeat acoustic music]

There we go, there we go.

[sighing]

Well can we drop him off soon?

Sunny, sorry, sorry.

Whats your name?

What's your name?

Cool, cool.

I think he's deaf or mute.

Well, then why

are you whispering?

What's wrong with your leg?

Sunny, Sunny, you

can't just ask that.

Well he can't hear me.

Well then why are you even

asking in the first place?

'Cause it's all bloody.

Sorry, she's just,

she's asking what's

happened to your leg?

Yeah, I mean yeah,

fair, that's fair.

[laughing]

Legs, legs, there you go.

[sighing]

But why can't I just go

at the side of the road?

[Sunny] It's too public.

[Ryan] I'm bursting.

[Sunny] Just go there.

They better not make me pay.

Okay.

[loud exhaling]

Mate do you want?

Nope, okay.

Yeah?

He's scary.

He's not scary.

He is.

Mate, he's asleep and he

can barely move, bless him.

Hey, look at me.

Look at me.

I'll be right in there, okay.

You know I wouldn't let anythinghappen to you, I promise.

Trust me.

I think he needs

a name, don't you?

Jack.

Jack, well that's

a great name, yeah.

I'll be right in there.

I've gotta go I'm

going to burst, yeah?

You alright?

Hey, there's a

guy in the urinals,

I don't think he is actually

even using the toilet.

[screaming]

Oh, shit.

What's your favorite color?

Sunny.

Red, red, hold on.

It's red, what color is it?

Ginger?

Ginger, ginger?

[laughing]

His favorite color is ginger.

[laughing]

Sunny, Sunny, Sunny.

No, ah, Sunny.

Sunny, yes, yes.

[laughing]

Yes, yes, N-N-Y.

Ah, okay, thank you, Jack.

Yeah, so Jack,

we're probably going to have

to drop you off soon, mate

because, you know,

we're nearly there.

We're not there.

Yeah, no, I know, but we needto prepare for the funeral.

What, why?

You know, mentally.

Mentally.

Yeah.

I don't get it.

I just think we should

drop him off soon.

- Okay?

- Why?

Because he might not be safe.

But you said he

wasn't dangerous.

Yeah, well I don't

know that, do I?

Why are you whispering?

What has changed?

Nothing's changed,

nothing's changed.

Well he's fine,

he's been fine to us.

Yeah, okay, yeah.

You hate Jack.

I don't hate Jack,

I don't hate Jack,

I just, you know, you've

been talking to him a lot,

which is great, which is great,

it just means you're not

talking to me as much now.

So you're jealous?

No.

That you don't have a

disability like we do.

What, no, no.

It's just that I like

to talk to someone.

[shushing]

What?

You don't have to whisper.

Well, I like Jack, we

have something in common.

He finds it hard to communicate

and I find it hard

to communicate.

Okay, alright, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Okay, Jack, we'll carry on.

We're all good, you know.

We'll keep going.

I kinda like

that you're jelly.

[hopeful orchestral music]

[seagulls chirping]

There we go, there we go.

Okay?

Nice.

Bye Jack, thank you.

See you, Jack.

No worries, pleasure.

Nice to meet you.

Hey, Simon.

For fuck sake, look at you.

I got a little something thatwould make you feel better.

Ah, yeah.

Come on, let's

get you over here.

We did a good thing.

Huh.

[car engine roaring]

Oh, bloody hell, we're

only 20 minutes away.

Ah, but the

funeral's tomorrow.

Yeah, I mean we're actually

arriving a lot

later than I planned

but it doesn't matter.

Oh, but your

parents arrive today.

Have you got the address?

I'll whack it in the nav.

Oh, well I was hoping

to stay with you tonight.

Oh, I mean I'm just

staying in my car tonight,

I hadn't booked anywhere.

That's okay,

that's a nice idea.

Yeah?

I mean you've got

to ask your mom.

Can I come back with you?

Again, you've gotta

ask your parents,

I mean that's not my

decision, I can't say.

But you would want me to?

[blowing]

I mean, I don't know,

it's been a long

journey, you know?

And like all the way back

and you going off

on one in my ear

like oh, you know, look

at me, I've got autism.

You know, I'm pretty sick of

it, to be honest, you know.

Pretty bloody sick of it.

Obviously I'm joking.

Obviously, I'd love that.

Ah.

Ah.

[laughing]

Sunny.

[laughing]

Can I tell you something?

Yeah, of course.

I feel very

comfortable around you,

more so than anyone

else, even my parents.

You're very easy to talk to.

I'm glad.

You know that accident

I told you about in the bar?

Ah, yeah?

I nearly died.

Oh, shit.

I cut my wrist.

My parents think

it was an accident

but I did it on purpose.

But in reflection,

it was an accident.

Why would you do that?

I don't know, I guess I wantedto know what would happen.

What, are you fucking nuts?

You want to know

what would happen?

Sunny, I'll tell you

what would happen,

you'd bleed out and

you'd die, you die.

Well, I know you die.

I know you die.

Jesus, no wonder

your parents don't feel

like they can leave you

to do your own thing.

You'll probably go

into the kitchen

and stick your head in

the fucking microwave.

Why are you making

me feel stupid?

I already feel guilty.

I shouldn't have told

you, you don't understand.

And why are you

getting so mad at me?

What have I done wrong?

Nothing, nothing.

I'm sorry it's just thatpeople are so desperate to live

and you're here and you're

fine, you're healthy.

And you're just willing

to give that all up for nothing.

Like there are people that

are far worse off than you

and in comparison you're

fucking fine, you're healthy.

Well, I didn't feel fine

and I didn't feel healthy.

And what about the people

around you, like your family?

The people that spend so

much time to care for you

because they love you?

Like if you killed yourself,

what about them, huh?

Now, how would they feel?

Don't you think that's

fucking selfish?

Well, I didn't have

anything to look forward to.

Well, then get

a fucking hobby.

Stop the car.

Sunny, I'm not

stopping the car.

Stop the car.

Sunny, we're on a main road.

- Stop the fucking car.

- Sunny,

I'm not stopping the car,

we're on a main road.

- Stop the fucking car.

- Sunny, I'm not.

Stop the fucking car,

stop the fucking car.

Stop the fucking car,

stop the fucking car.

- Stop the fucking car.

- Okay, okay, okay.

[melancholic piano music]

Shit, shit.

Sunny!

Sunny, please!

Sunny!

Oh, shit, Sunny!

[water splashing]

[sneezing]

[spitting]

Oh, he can't swim.

[heavy breathing]

[groaning]

[heavy breathing]

I don't care.

I didn't say anything.

Well, why aren't

you saying anything?

Because in all honesty,

I don't know what to say.

When we get home are you

going to tell my parents?

What, that you eventually

stopped me from drowning?

The thought hadn't

crossed my mind.

I was still thinking

about how I was drowning.

No, about how I still

feel this way sometimes

and I still think like this.

Well, I don't know,

I don't want you to have

another accident again, so.

Well, they won't let me

out of the house if you do.

Yeah, but you might

die if I don't tell them.

Well, what's the

point in living

if I don't have a

bloody life anyway?

Sunny, I don't know

what you're going through,

so I don't know what to say.

But I know what I said earlier,

it wasn't what I meant.

And it wasn't right.

You know I actually did

want to come with you.

Well not you personally,

but when I found out that

someone had to get a lift

from my family, I

jumped at the chance.

My family make me

feel like an alien.

I hate it.

I actually begged and

cried to be the one

to get the lift with you

and the only reason

why they said yes

was because that I said

that I would text them

every 30 minutes.

I was so terrified,

standing out the

front of my house,

but not as scared as I was

doing nothing by myself

day in and day out.

This has been the most

thrilling experience

of my life.

Of my life, Ryan.

A fucking extended road trip.

I live my life so

planned and organized

and that has all gone to shit

and my heart has been

racing majority of the time

and it has been for the

best and the worst ways

but I finally feel

like I'm living,

and that's because I

feel safe with you.

But the best part is

that I finally felt

like I'd met someone

that understood

me, that gets me.

And now I just feel

like an alien again.

- Sunny...

- And that's why

I have one friend, Carly.

And she's been mushroom stamped.

And it stained her head.

[laughing]

I won't tell your parents.

I guess you've got to

make your own decisions

in life, right?

But please if you ever,

ever feel like that again,

please feel like

you can talk to me.

No, you'll yell.

No, I won't, I'll listen.

You know I'm really glad

you've popped up in my life.

I just don't want to lose you.

You know, you're

really easy to talk to.

[slow acoustic music]

Well, I guess

we're finally here.

Yeah, I can see my mom.

I guess we should head in.

Yeah.

I'll let you go

be with your family.

Why, where are you going?

Oh, I'm gonna hold back,

I'm not really interested

in the ceremony.

I can pay my respects

from around here.

Oh.

Can I stay with you?

Yeah.

Funerals are dumb.

There's not many

people here for him.

That doesn't surprise me.

Sunny!

Oh, my God, Sunny,

where the hell have you been?

You were suppose to

meet us yesterday.

Sorry.

What have you

done to your head?

Are you okay?

Yes, mom, I'm fine.

Okay, okay.

Hi, Ryan.

Thank you so much for driving.

It's fine, honestly.

Oh, what have you

done to your face?

Did you?

No, it happened

before the journey.

Oh, my heart.

[laughing]

Here's me kicking up

a fuss in front of you

and you probably even

remember who I am.

[laughing]

I don't, I'm sorry.

That's fine, I

wouldn't expect you to.

It's very kind of you to

come at all considering.

You know he wasn't

terrible, he really wasn't.

He had lots of issues

and well he certainly

had his demons.

But he wasn't one himself.

Sunny, darling, John's going

to come back with Helen now.

So you can squeeze in with

us for our journey back.

Ah.

Alright well, I shall

see you in the car.

Five minutes.

Just be over there.

Okay,

Bye, Ryan.

It was lovely to see you.

And you.

I don't understand.

Huh?

You don't know him.

No, I don't.

So why is my

mom talking to you

like you care more

than what you do?

I don't know,

because he's my

biological father.

Yeah I know that, but,

of course he is,

but I'm sorry, why are you here?

He left when I was

really, really young.

And I never had...

Yeah, sorry, but

why are you here and not

at home with your mum?

I don't...

It's just that you made

it seem like you didn't care

so I just I don't understand.

I don't care, he wasn't

a father to me then

and I don't see him

as a father now.

- No, I understand that.

- You know, Sunny,

it's not something I

really want to talk about.

Are you keeping

something from me?

Are you protecting

me from something?

Because I don't need protecting.

Okay, I know you.

Sunny, you've

only just met me.

Don't patronize me, okay?

Don't make me feel

like this whole

journey is any less

than what it is,

'cause I know what it is

and I know what I feel.

You know what, Sunny?

Sunny, it's not

always about you.

Okay, I know you're used

to all the attention

but it's not always about you.

Are you lying to me?

I mean, do you actually

care about your dad

or is everything you said

about your mom true as well?

Is she really dying?

Sunny.

Because if she is and

she is at home right now

and you are the only

person that she has,

I mean what the fuck are you

doing at this man's funeral?

I don't know, God,

I don't know Sunny.

Please, please

stop, I don't know.

I just wanted to get away.

Yeah, but your mom.

There has to be a better reason.

I mean, she must really need

you and want you right now.

Don't you think I know that?

Jesus. [sighing]

You know I wake up

and I look at her and I see her

and I am forced to be reminded

that I'm gonna lose her.

And God, I love her,

I love her so much.

You know this one time,

I won this shitty little award

at work and she was there,

she came for it and I walked up

and when I went to collect it,

I saw her, she went to stand up

and she couldn't, she just

feel straight back down.

You know I wake up every morning

and I slap a smile on my face

and I care for her, the

best that I possibly can.

And I stay positive, because

I know that if I don't,

[crying]

that it'll end her.

I kinda feel so

selfish 'cause I know

it's not my illness,

but I'm so tired.

God, I'm so tired.

Get her.

No, no, dad, no!

Get your fucking

hands off her!

With me now.

Don't touch me.

Sunny, it's for you.

Hi.

Hi.

Painting pine cones, hey?

Yeah, Christmas is

just around the corner

so gotta be ready.

Yeah, nah, I figured.

So that's why bought you some.

Ah, thanks but there's

heaps, they're everywhere.

Oh, yeah, I mean that's fine.

But I'll take them, thanks.

I saw you at the funeral,

thanks for coming.

You shot off real quick.

Yeah, sorry, I didn't think

you'd want to talk to me

so yeah, I just left.

You're pretty dumb

for someone so smart.

[laughing]

Did she die comfortably?

I was with her

when it happened

and yeah, she was comfortable.

It was the best

it could've been.

That sounds nice.

Yeah, it was nice to

be there for her, so.

I was told that

she adored you,

so, I think that's a nice

thing for you to know.

Yeah, it is.

I mean it's

everything to me, so.

I told my mom what happened.

About the hand job?

Hand job, what, no.

At your biological

dad's funeral.

Oh.

She was understanding,

my dad not so much.

Oh, that's fine, it's okay.

Yeah, well they don't

live together anymore

so it doesn't matter.

Yeah, fair enough.

I owe you petrol money.

No, you don't.

Yeah, nah, I'm

just gonna go inside

and I'll get...

Sunny, Sunny, Sunny.

It was an absolute pleasure.

Well, hope someone

in our family dies soon

so we can see each other again.

[laughing]

Does someone really need

to die for that to happen?
