Spaceship (2016) - full transcript

Lucidia is a teenage cyber-goth whose mother died mysteriously seven years ago in the family swimming pool. Her father Gabriel is an archaeologist who can't move on. When Lucidia disappears in an apparent alien abduction, Gabriel is forced to confront her strange outsider friends and meets Tegan, a girl obsessed with unicorns and black holes. Emotional and audacious, the story is told from multiple points of view in an intriguing ride through a constellation of characters who are pulled together by teenage gravity, surrounded by adults who also feel the same irresistible pull as they orbit their own elusive identities, all looking for a universe to call their own.

You know, I believe that
there's life forms on other planets,

but I don't think I believe in
aliens. Maybe not aliens, but...

Maybe... Yeah, something...
No way. Somewhere out there.

Some sort of bacteria
growing somewhere.

Yeah. Hope so. Yeah...

If they were a light year away
and they were a light year closer,

they'd live for light years...
for a light year longer than us.

I reckon one day,
they'll come and visit us, maybe.

There is some other sort of
life force outside this planet.

I watched a documentary where,
like, people say they, like...



I don't know, they... They'd been
abducted or something. Yeah.

Humans, us on Earth, know of

at least five different
types of aliens.

Can't just have us
in this universe, can you?

I don't know if
they're just crazy or not.

Do you think you need to see it
to believe it?

Yeah. Yeah? Yeah.

it's gonna be fun

LUCIDIA: My mum disappeared
when I was seven years old.

When I say disappeared, I mean

they told me she was dead.



But you should have seen her eyes.

She was floating in the pool
with this smile on her face.

Like she was somewhere else.

# Let's go down to the city with me
and see what we can see... #

There's a dream I have.

I'm being chased by vampires
in a forest.

But I can fly.

So when they get close to me,

I look up at the sky
and shoot upwards.

But then I realise
they can fly too.

Dreams can be really ironic.

Most of the kids round here think
they were abducted by aliens.

At one point, my local college
was nearly empty.

The police looked everywhere.

They all came back three days later
with stories that didn't make sense.

The college said they'd been hiding
out in some old World War II bunker.

But they denied that.

HE SHOUTS

HE HOWLS

HE HOWLS

My dad's Finnish,
but I grew up in Wales.

I never went to his home.

He never wanted to go back.

We've moved around a lot
with Dad's job.

When Mum died, we stayed here.

But I find it hard to be still now.

Something's calling me on.

# I'll sing you this October song

# Oh, there is no song
before it... #

Don't dig it too deep.

Dig deeper, but not too deep.

# The words and tune
are none of my own

# For my joys and sorrows bore it

# Beside the sea

# The brambly briars,
in the still of evening... #

Aldershot's home of
the British Army, and me.

I'm not in the Army.

Maybe I'll go someday.

Squaddies are really cute.

They're all pumped up and worried
about defending the country.

They cycle around on BMXs,
keeping fit.

Dad came here because the Army
kept blowing up the hills

and discovering
all these buried dead people

from thousands of years ago.

Where have you been?

I was working.

Did you find anything? No.

Bit of a waste of time, then.

We'll find something.

I've been thinking about Mum.

HE SINGS IN FINNISH

GABRIEL IN VOICEOVER:
When we had fights,

I would always find her
under the bridge.

She never told me
what she was doing there.

I could stand next to her
for two or three hours.

Then she'd just tell me
that it was time to go home.

I'm just a bit bored
of kissing humans.

What do you mean?

I mean...

..do you not find it a bit boring?

Like, all the saliva?

Like, they have
different techniques.

People like different things.

But all in all, it's just, like...

It's bland.

Just trust me.

What are you doing?

It's all part of the theory.

You ready?

OK. >

LAUGHING: Ow! What are you doing?

What does it taste like?

Mmm, it tastes like burger.

But I didn't really get much out.

I mean, I didn't hit an artery
or anything.

Why don't you try it again?

No, I can't.
I've got to go to band practice.

TEGAN IN VOICEOVER: I went out
with this guy once,

on the internet.

He said he couldn't meet me
because he was in hiding.

He was in Lithuania.

In the last few days that we spoke,

he told me he wanted me
to go and find him.

In Disneyland Paris.

Start off,

just one shot jumping, and...

Unlucky. Try,
when you're going for it,

put your hand up and back like this,

so when you're coming up, and...
into that.

Oh!

Do you play a lot?
Do you play a lot of sport?

LAUGHING: No!

Why not? Why not, seriously?

Not my thing.
Yeah, but that's the whole point,

it should be your thing.

The whole point of sport is
it should be everyone's thing,

everyone should be fit,
everyone should be happy,

that's what would make the world
a better place.

Give it here, then.

LUCIDIA: There was this kid in my
class who said he was from Albania,

but he was really from
Milton Keynes.

He thought he was a vampire.

He got too into it.

He started giving all of the girls
love bites.

Do you remember the day
he climbed to the top of the roof?

Said he was going to fly away
and start a new breed of human.

Said it was just time to start over.

Then he just vanished into thin air.

Well, she's a teenager and, er,

I suppose she's pushing her limits.

I'm... I'm sorry,
but I don't think that's acceptable.

Yeah...
Well, she don't have a mother.

So, um, all I can do is...

It's more like supporting
her independency.

You can't let your child just
run off and do whatever she likes.

She cannot be on a roof!

You really think
she would have jumped down?

She never would have jumped down.

So, what was she doing?

She wanted to fly.

You shouldn't bring a gun
to the table.

Why don't you come and spend time
with me on site?

Hmm?

I want to start using
the pool again.

Mmm.

We've got some good finds going on.

You should come.

I don't want to spend another summer
in a load of mud.

Tama ta...

Tama tata.

HE REPEATS WORDS IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE

HE REPEATS WORDS MORE LOUDLY

SHE ECHOES HIS WORDS

HE REPEATS WORDS IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE

Tama tata. Tama tata.

THEY BOTH SHOUT IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE

LUCIDIA IN VOICEOVER: My mum was
all over the place.

She was like a Barbie doll on speed
who'd just got out of rehab

and couldn't control Ken.

Once, I heard her talking
in her sleep.

She was giving landing directions.

To aliens.

And back, down...

Up.

Make sure you just keep looking,
right, cos... Yeah, yeah.

I'm watching.

Making sure I'm copying.
Yeah, that's it.

That's it, mate.

Yeah, again.

Try not to jerk it.
Nice and slow, drag forward.

That's it.

GABRIEL: The Army blew
a massive hole in the ground.

Left this gaping hole down into
an underground chamber

from the Neolithic.

It was some kind of, um,
cult hang-out place.

The Army tried to ignore it,
until we found out.

The archaeologists moved in,

and we've been in the area
ever since.

How's it going?

GRUNTING: It's going fine.

I don't know that we found
something there, you know,

from the inside of the earth.

I think everything we find in there
comes from the outside.

You know what I mean? Yeah.

It's not that the earth
can tell us something,

it's more about we are
learning things about...

..I don't know, people
who put something in there.

For us.

To be found.

Yeah. They want...
They want us to find.

I love your... I like your
romantic way of seeing things.

You think it's romantic?

Yeah, I think it's...
quite romantic.

I think it's rational.

DREAMY MUSIC

INAUDIBLE SPEECH

When I was younger,
I wanted to be a detective.

So, that would be kind of cool,
to still do it.

You don't need qualifications,
do you?

Do you? Mmm...

I think maybe you just need
more experience.

I've got years of experience.

My mum got me this, like,
detective kit when I was younger,

and I'd just go and sit on
a bench and watch people,

and I'd think about what type
of criminal they'd be,

or what crime they'd committed.

I always had this thing where
you'd get, like, a calculator

and pretend it was, like...
What, like a spy gadget? Yeah.

It's just pops out loads of stuff?

If, when we're older,
I end up being a detective

and if you end up being a spy,

and if the Government calls me

and they wanted me to follow you
and turn you in,

I wouldn't, I'd protect you.

You'd sacrifice your job for me?

Course I would,
cos we're friends, aren't we?

I wouldn't protect you.

Doesn't matter,
I'd still protect you.

Go, go!

LUKE IN VOICEOVER: There was
medieval mattresses up there,

'80s ski jackets,

stuff from another life,
someone else's life.

When I was at school,

Kriss Akabusi came to inspire us.

Bet he went running here,
before the Army blew it up.

I found a pair of Nike trainers
and put them in the washing machine.

Those trainers are
Kriss Akabusi's trainers.

KRISTOF: I love Anthrax.
Do you know Anthrax?

GABRIEL: No, I don't.

You don't? No. Well, I love them.

I like Manowar.

I like Manowar too.

Actually, I wanted to be
a rock star.

I was roadie for Manowar. Really?

Yeah, that was my first job.

To Manowar? Yeah. Wow.

You know, before they went on stage,
you know what they did?

What?

They'd spray this, this oil,
you know, on their bodies.

Yeah? Yeah.

And then, they did these weights,

to get all pumped up for the crowd,
you know?

And then,
they had a Harley-Davidson.

Yeah.

On which they drove up on a ramp
into the stage.

Yeah? Yeah.

And with these motorbike sounds,
but you know what?

It wasn't even switched on.

We were staying behind
and pushing it up!

WHISPERING: Hey.

Why aren't you on the ice?

Er... Just give me a chance,
you know?

I don't want to make you look bad,
show you up.

Think you'd make me look bad?

Probably. OK, come on, then.

Is that a challenge? I don't know.

I don't mind being made to look bad.
No? No.

You know you're going toe to toe
with a dancer?

Then prove it, come on.

HE CHUCKLES
Get on the ice, dancer boy!

All right. Come on, then.

I've just got to psych myself up
a bit, mentally.

Or maybe that means
you're not really a dancer.

We dance to, like, rock,
reggae, hip-hop...

# To the winners!

# To the wall!
(To the wall!)

# Till the sweat jumps on my path

# Make all these bridges fall... #

Plie, and one and two and three...

I just woke up
in the middle of the night,

with my motorbike,
in the middle of a field.

Of a field? Field, yeah.

It was beautiful, you know.

The grass was wet, you know?

And its engine kept me warm
all night long.

It was like...

..yeah, the most beautiful illusion
of freedom.

Yeah, but it's just
an illusion, right?

Yeah, but it doesn't matter,
it doesn't matter.

But how can you be satisfied

with knowing that it's just
an illusion, you know?

Because I love that illusion.

Why don't you have an illusion
of freedom with a car?

No, it's, it's...

..it's kind of combined
illusion and reality.

Of course it's reality when
you're riding a bike,

but the feeling you get,
you get the feeling of freedom.

You know?

So, you're un...
In a way, you're uncovered,

you're naked, you know, even though
you have leathers on or whatever.

Oh, that's nice. Yeah.

I would love to do it.

Yeah, but we can do it, you know.

I have no licence.

You have no...? It doesn't matter.

I have a motorbike. We can travel
across Sahara if we want.

Sahara, to go to the pyramids?

Yeah, we can do that if we want.
Really? Yeah.

Tutankhamen?

Yeah, Tutankhamen especially, yeah.
Wow.

This whole valley of Egypt,
it's full of nightclubs -

we should go there.
Yeah, we should go there. Yeah.

With a motorbike, yeah.
Yeah, with yours?

Mine, yeah. Both together,
on one motorcycle?

Yeah, it's possible, yeah.
Wow. Yeah.

That would be romantic, even!

Are you kidding me?

Yeah, I would like that.
Now I got a bit scared!

# Whatever you want

# Whatever you need... #

You going on holiday?
I could take you.

I need a holiday as well.

I haven't had one in a while.
I want to get away.

# Is there anything else
left to go wrong? #

LUCIDIA: I had this poster
above my bed.

This guy was reaching out. There was
a tower behind him, shaking in

the sky.
And they wanted to pull me inside.

But I wanted to pull them out.

My grandma believed in fairies.

She said they used to tell
her to do things.

Said they were going to
take over the world.

She spent her last few days
gibbering on about how

the fairies were coming and
everything was going to be amazing.

"Soon", she said.

I haven't seen any yet,
apart from some tiny footsteps

I saw in a puddle of
muddy water once.

And they glistened in the moonlight.

Where you going?

I'm going home.

This is a crap holiday. I think
next year I'm going to go to Ibiza.

PANTING

Come on.

Gabriel, come on.

No, I'm, I'm staying.

We're losing light.

It's losing me.

Don't drink too much, OK?
Mum and Dad told you,

don't drink too much.

You were drinking when you were
13, so... That was a family
occasion.

That was different.
Your mum was in the kitchen and you

went up onto the table,
took the glass and drunk it.

You fell off the table,
drunk off your face.

LAUGHTER

We all know about it. You didn't
go into school for weeks.

I heard you ended up in a hedge
where you pissed yourself.

LAUGHTER

..What happened to Jack, like,
two weeks ago...

OVERLAPPING CHATTER

LAUGHTER

And we passed a tattoo...
piercing parlour and went, "Yes!"

OK, let's go in and get some
decorative piercings.

I took it out when I...

GIRL INTERRUPTS

LAUGHTER

No, I didn't get
a St Albert but I...

..oh...!

ALL EXCLAIM

That's a story for another day,
but I did, I got my nipple pierced,

I got my nipple pierced and I got
a decorative little tassel

to go with it...

Yeah, they're healed at
the moment but you know...

Why didn't you keep it?
Why didn't I keep it?

Because I'm not a burlesque dancer.

LAUGHTER

TEGAN IN VOICEOVER: I always wanted
to be a unicorn, like in that game,

the one where it flies all over
the place until it gets sucked

into a big black hole.
The hole's full of glitter,

with some kind of
amazing world in there.

There's neon pink apples growing
on trees, perfect for unicorns.

Lucidia!

Lucidia?

DEEP RUMBLING

LUCIDIA!

LUCIDIA!

In my world,
there's neon-coloured birds

flying around like UFOs.

# I'll be the voice that says to you

# I'll be the heat

# That keeps you awake... #

SHE CONTINUES SINGING

OK? Yeah. Yeah.

Try and keep it off the ground.

Usually in the Army,
every time you touch the floor,

it's ten press-ups.

And...final one.

One more.

One more for luck.

One more for your mother.

And we'll stop there!

Morning, slave. Hello. How are you?
I'm very well, thank you.

That's nice.
Good, slave. Know your place.

Did you think
you were going to kiss me?

No. Slave doesn't get a kiss today.

Slave has to do something
for Alice to get a kiss.

OK.

HE ATTEMPTS TO BARK

Give me...

HE BARKS

SHE BARKS

HE HOWLS

SHE LAUGHS

BOTH HOWL

BOTH BARK

Further back. Further back.

Shall I knight you?

If you wish. If you think
I deserve it. Down, down!

I knight...

..thee Alice's slave.

Property of...

..Alice.

Does that not make you feel, like,
weird? Dominating someone, like...

It's not dominating.

It kind of is! It's not.

You basically own him.
Every relationship is like that.

We're just honest with each other.

Yeah, but...he's your property.
You're not his.

Yeah, but, in a way...
I'm your property and you're mine.

It's like people are just
spinning round each other in circles

and then occasionally
they just collide.

You know when you see those
shamans...the tribesmen...on TV?

On those programmes.

And they're, like,
chanting in a circle...

with the smoke and the ashes...

..and you see, you see them trying
to get to another world.

And you can only see
the whites of their eyes.

It's a step up from...
Is that working?

ALICE CHUCKLES

LAUGHTER

Where have you been?

There was, like,
stuff happening above, in the sky,

and it was just like
she was sucked away,

she was sucked into...another
dimension or something.

An alien abduction.

I reckon she killed herself.

Why is that the first thing
that comes to your mind?

Her mum did, didn't she?

That doesn't mean that she's going
to do it herself, does it?

Maybe you did it.

You look kind of strange, different.

I am...different.

I mean, what I saw...

It made me believe in
something more.

More than this.

VOICE MAIL:
You're calling me and I'm not here.

I'm somewhere else.

You're calling me and
I'm not here. I'm somewhere else.

Open the door - this huge world
is spread out in front of you.

You come out from the darkness
into the blinding sunlight,

and you're on a river bank, there's
trees, the music is swelling,

and you think,
"Oh, my God, this is incredible.

"It's open-world.
I can go in any direction I want,

"I can do anything I want.
I can be anything.

"I could be a wizard,
I could be a warrior, a thief,

"I could be the greatest
gladiator in all the land."

You're calling me and
I'm not here. I'm somewhere else.

HE SIGHS

You're so heavy, Alice.

The fuck is that?

This is definitely
the room of a dead person.

It's, like, stale and hollow. Eugh.

Nice jacket.

Guys, see if you can
actually find...

I thought the point was
to see where she's gone.

I wish there were
strawberry laces...

Don't go through her journal.

How do you know what the fuck's
in her journal?

I don't, I'm just saying, do you
want people going through yours?

I bet you're in it.
I bet you're in it.

Yeah, I bet you're in it, as well.
How much of a bitch you are.

Do you remember when we were six
and we tried to

dig to the other side of the world,
do you remember that?

I do, yeah.

What's this?

Retro.

So he sleeps with a synth?

It's her synth.

Sit back a bit.

That's weird.

PHONE CAMERA CLICKS

This is hers.

"Imagine a world...

"..where everyone
lives under the sea."

"The birds would be like UFOs."

I think she wanted to escape.

From what?

Don't know. Herself.

Have you seen this?

She's talking to me.

My sports teacher went insane.

We were so bad at sport.

Couldn't take it.

He climbed into a cupboard
and refused to come out.

We gathered round and prayed.

He shouted at us.

Told us to get better.

We can build a better world.

"Lypemania.

"Melancholia.

"A form of insanity

"characterised by
extreme mental depression,

"and a habit of refusing
to take food."

That's you!

Here you go.

HE PLUCKS A STRING

TEGAN GROANS

HE STRUMS A CHORD, OUT OF TUNE

Sounds like a fart.

What the fuck you doing here?

Why are you in my house?

You know, it was really easy
for us to get in here.

You should keep it more secure.

Where is she?

Get the fuck off him!
She just disappeared!

It's all right, just chill.

I don't know what happened.

Cos we were together out by
the Army land, and then, um...

..and then I followed her here.

Something out there...

..came and took her away.

There was, like, electricity
in the air, and then...

And then I think I saw
some kind of strange shapes.

But I couldn't really see

because the light was
in my eyes, and then...

There was a...

..vaporisation.

Fucking hell!

Prop something under his head.

HE GASPS AND CHOKES

He's slowing down,
it's slowing down.

Prop his head up.

DREAMY MUSIC

I can fly.

I'm going to go away again and
start a whole new breed of human.

You can come with me, if you want.

I can't fly.

I'll come back for you, then.

OK.

I'm going to give you
a love bite before I go.

HE SIGHS

When this is over,

when I have found her...

..I'll write you a song.

I know I never did.

What I wanted to say
is out there somewhere.

It's so far out that...

..words can't reach it.

Get out of my house.

You need me.

ALICE: Everyone just wants
to be like us.

People never submit
to their desires, do they?

They're always just
desiring desires,

and then when other people
actually have them,

they just judge them.

Out in Iraq, a couple of our boys,
we got attacked by the Americans.

F-16s came down. Really?
Yeah, blew up three of our tanks.

You know, you keep morale up,
keep going.

That's the risk we all take
when we join the Army, kind of,

you know, to lose your life.

Obviously, no-one wants to be

out in the middle of nowhere
on Christmas Day.

You know, everyone wants to be
at home with their family...

But they kind of cheered us up
with a few beers,

a few Christmas decorations
and hats,

the locals got involved. Yeah? Yeah.

They enjoyed it, we enjoyed it.
Yeah?

Everyone got cheered up.
Sounds like good craic.

Yeah, yeah, morale was boosted.
Yeah, nice. Yeah, it was good fun.

Ow!

What are you doing?

I thought you were
going to be brain dead.

Or, like, on one of those machines
that keeps you alive.

I brought you some beer.

No! Mm-hmm.

HE LAUGHS
Of course you did.

I want to live on beer.

Mmm.

Thanks.

Do you remember anything
about the other night?

Yeah.

It's coming back to me.

I mean, not all of it.

I remember bits.

I saw an army of unicorns.

I saw rainbows...

..and then I saw everything being
sucked up into a black hole.

And then I saw my life
flash forward.

I'm going to be a famous
shoe designer.

Yeah!

DREAMY MUSIC

TEGAN IN VOICEOVER: Out there...

..are worlds that...

..you can't even begin to imagine.

They got valleys full...

..of...

..nuclear rainbows that piss
all over your head.

They've got unicorns with
rocket boosters up their ass.

Giant babies just flying around.

To Lucidia. To Lucidia.

Lucidia.

I don't think I do miss her.

I think the majority of me
is happy that she is where she is,

assuming she's happy and...
She's done it.

And for that reason, I can't...
I can't miss her. Yeah. I envy her.

Would you rather go
all the way up into space,

or all the way down
to the bottom of the sea?

As long as it was where
I wanted to be, I wouldn't mind

whether I went down or up.

Assume that you had no choice
and you were forced,

you would either go up or down,
which one would you prefer?

Stuck under the sea, or stranded
in the middle of space? Up. Up.

Probably go up.
Definitely, yeah. Why?

I mean, what's so good
about being up?

I mean, you've got everything
to lose.

You can fall down.

And if someone makes you, I mean...

You're just going to go all the way

back down to the bottom again.

Once you're at the bottom,
you've got nowhere to go but up.

Where do you think she is?

Do you think she's up,
or do you think she's down?

She probably went down.

Do you ever look in the mirror,

and every time you move, you
just see this other person moving?

And it's trippy, it's like a ghost.

And I go so far in, sometimes
I just end up kissing myself!

SHE GIGGLES

Or, like, trying
to just touch hands,

but actually,
you're not touching anything

cos there's something in between.

# Before you ask me again

# You'd better think it over... #

Everyone says that you can't hold
your breath and then kill yourself,

can you? Cos...
No, your body doesn't let you.

Does it not?
No, it just doesn't let you.

It stops you doing it. Oh, God.

# I know you think that you know me

# Cos it's been a long time

# Don't ask any questions when you

# Tell me that I am the

# Last one... #

SHE LETS OUT BREATH AND PANTS

THEY LAUGH

# I'm the one to forget

# The one you won't regret. #

I was playing this game last night.

There's no characters...

..and the aim of the game is
to see how long you can last,

being isolated.

You kind of, like,
see what the world's like,

and you appreciate it more.

How long did you last?

WATER DRIPS

Do you come here a lot?

Sometimes.

This isn't just where
they buried people, is it?

No.

There would be others
standing outside.

Why?

They want to be part of the ritual.

But they're not allowed.

Only a few have been chosen.

And that means we will leave here
with some kind of power

they don't have.

We know something they don't.

There's a dead body
at the end of the passage.

Someone we knew.

They're just lying there.

They're dead,
but they're still here.

And that worries us.

We don't want their spirit
to get lost.

Keep them close.

Keep them close.

Take a bite.

Go on.

I can see her in your eyes.

She can see you, too.

DREAMY MUSIC

We're not going to find her.

I hope we don't find her.
I hope we don't find her.

The mystery itself
is rewarding enough.

She's somewhere that
we would never understand.

Ever.

Not while we're here, anyway.

We could just follow her.

Where? How? Where is she?

Come on, it's not
that hard, I mean...

We don't know where she's gone.

So? What if we don't get there?

We can look.

We can leave our fucking lazy lives

and look for her, can't we?

I think we should go.

But what if we don't get there?

As you said... You said,

what if we don't get there?

What if we get somewhere else?

LUCIDIA: Fly like a unicorn, Tegan.

Fly into a nuclear rainbow.

Take me with you.

Who are you?

Where am I?

You're in my army barracks, that's
where. How did you get in here?

I was brought here.

Maybe it was you.

Well, the last three months I was
drunk, but I don't remember that.

I don't know what happened.

I was at home, I disappeared
and I woke up here.

I can remember flashing lights.

Sounds like one of them...

..alien abductions, or...

..something from a film.

This isn't a film.

I know.

You don't look like a squaddie.

They've got their arms all
pumped up, and short hair.

You've got a beard.

You're not really in the Army,
are you?

I was.

I just...

I got back a few months ago, like.

My life's gone a bit downhill,
since then.

You just need something to...
aim for, don't you?

Yeah.

Well, I got it now. Yeah?

What is it?

Somewhere around here,
there's a cave.

There's a kid in a cave. Some of
the local lads told me about him.

He's having a disco.

He's going to...

He's going to keep on dancing till
he sees something, some kind of...

Well, I don't know. One of them...

..things that people see.

You know?

A vision.

What's in the cave? Just him.

And a disco.

And nothing else.

Hey! Where have you been?

My daughter is missing.

I saw your daughter. What?

Yeah, I saw her
at the military base.

Lucidia.

It's me.

It's OK.

Let me take you home.

I'm not your Lucidia.

Who are you?

I'm my Lucidia.

When she disappeared,
it was something special.

I think she's an angel on fire.

Everyone's talking about her.

Luke said there were
lights and sound.

And then she vanished.

Are you stoned?

So why hasn't she come back?

Lots of Lucidias
are better than one.

You know, I...

..I had this dream.

And this baby used to
follow me into my room,

crawl around on the floor.

It had see-through skin.

I think once,
I tried to fish its heart out.

Cos you...you could see
all its organs.

But then it left.

Lucidia...

I've got her heart.
I've got everything that she has.

You're nothing like her.

Nothing.

Good luck.

I wrote a poem.

Based on that kid.

Disco.

Disco...

..disco...

..disco, disco, disco.

Disco, disco.

Dancing.

Dancing, dancing.

Dancing, dancing, dancing.

Dancing.

I lost my jumper.

It's beautiful.

I'm going to find that kid.

The kid in the cave.

HE SINGS IN FINNISH

Don't drown it.

I could use a synth like that.

Yeah.

Nice synth.

DREAMY MUSIC

While I was away,

I created a whole
new breed of human.

They're around.

You won't notice them.
They look just like us.

They can fly.

Everyone can fly, so there's
no point in being a superhero.

That's just normal.

They've got three hearts,

so if one breaks down, no problemo.

Just start up another one.

You could be one of us.

You just might not know it yet.

Outside of the Earth,

we are the aliens, no?

You, me, my mum, my dad, my sister,
we are all aliens for them.

And we don't even have a spaceship.

# The world

# Is lazy

# But you and me

# We're just crazy... #

I've always seemed to connect
with the creatures as a child

than I did with humans.

# Yeah, when I'm with you

# I have fun... #

I wasn't like anyone else.

# The world

# Is lazy

# But you and me

# We're just crazy

# So when I'm with you

# I have fun

# Yeah, when I'm with you

# I have fun

# Yeah, when I'm with you

Imagine if space was
just a reflection, like this.

Like a mirror...
With everything in 3D.

And actually,
we're all just looking at ourselves,

back, every time we look out
into space, it's just a reflection.

You know when divers,
they go down in the sea?

You can get the bends.

But actually,
you can get high off it.

How high?

I don't know,
I've never done it, but I want to!

And, like,
your brain starves of oxygen.

So, basically,
you're close to death. Mm.

So you're not scared at all, really.

Cos your last moments
are in ecstasy.

Tegan.

What?

You know that place
we were talking about?

Yeah.

You can touch it...

..with these.

Look how pretty they are.

All white and innocent.

Do you want the square one,

or the round one?

Square.

Apparently,
one gets you nice and high.

Takes you inside.

You come out in a couple of hours.

Like that unicorn
in the game you like.

Yeah.

DREAMY MUSIC

The unicorn has to get through
all the nuclear rainbows,

and all the frozen fire.

No-one ever knows what's
going to happen in the end,

cos no-one's ever got there.

No-one ever knows
what's inside a black hole.

It might just be black.

It might be millions of colours,
just exploding inside your eyes.

I want to see the colours.

Well...

I think I can see
into another world.

It's full of you and me.

FAST ROCK MUSIC

Do you want some MDMA?

No, I'm good. Good?

Good isn't good enough any more!

# I'll sing you this October song

# For there is no song before it

# The words and tune
are none of my own

# For my joys and sorrows bore it

# Beside the sea

# The brambly briars

# In the still of evening

# Birds fly out behind the sun

# And with them I'll be leaving... #

My friend's a zombie.

Zombies remember their
past lives and feelings,

even though they want to
eat your arm off.

Deep down,

they remember things,

like when they first fell in love.

She cheated on her boyfriend,

and she's wandering
around looking for him.

# The fallen leaves

# That jewel the ground

# They know the art of dying

# And leave with joy
Their glad gold hearts

# In the scarlet shadows lying... #

MUSIC FADES AWAY

# Break it down

# Cos you're so far away

# Follow where we will be

# Being home

# Your perfect brain

# So fall apart

# At last you were taken

# You're so far away... #

SHE COUGHS AND GAGS

It's OK.

HE MURMURS

It's all right.

I just want a way out.

There's no way out.

How do you know?

I've already looked.

I'll take you to a hospital.

I don't want anyone to know.

Yeah, but I should.

I'll be OK.

# My heart is crashing
against the rocks

# Responding fiercely

# As I face

# Your dark eyes... #

Can I stay at yours?

# This magical day

# We fell in love... #

Let's go.

I won't let you leave.

I love cartoons.

The old ones.

Hm.

Like Tex Willer.

Kind of...Western-style cartoon.

Simple stories.

Bad guys doing bad things.

And then comes Tex Willer
with his crew and...

..cleans up the mess.

And that's it.

Simple.

Does it hurt?

No.

I'll get something for it anyway.
