[Jeff] It's a bit awkward, 'cause she's your sister.
[Jamie] But?
She's started doing this thing where I'll start talking,
telling a story, something that happened that day,
something, something small, some bollocks, I dunno.
Anyway, I get to the point of the story, and…
Do you know anyone called Paul?
What?

[sighs]
[melodica music playing]
Thanks, mate.
[exhales]
Do you live here?
Just visiting.
Why?
I'm a professor. I've written a book.
What's it called?
Did it take you long?
Four years.
[girl] You sold many?
Sixty- two.
Mostly to libraries.
What's it about?
[Jeff] It's about the anatomy, physiology,
and pathology of the nervous system of animals.
[girl] What, like their brains?
Brains, neural pathways. Uh- hmm.
[girl] What, so you know what animals are thinking?
What's Spud thinking right now?
Is he happy?
Technically speaking, if Spud isn't… thirsty,
hungry, in danger, or pain, then…
broadly speaking, I suppose he is.
What about you?
Broadly speaking…
Well, I'd say with confidence,
and in terms that even Spud here would grasp,
uh, I'm constantly thirsty,
in exquisite pain, and…
massive, colossal,
clear and present, almost biblical danger.
[laughs]
So, you want some acid?
[exhales]
Yes.
[dramatic music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[Jamie] Check on one salmon, one beef, one ceviche,
two lobster, two chip, two purple sprouting.
[staff] Yes, Chef!
[phone vibrating]
[sighs]
Afternoon.
[Lue] Hey. Just checking how you're doing.
Yeah, yeah, I'm not bad, not bad. I'm okay.
[Lue] Where's Greta?
Uh, she's with Mom and Dad. Mm.
Have you spoken to Amandine?
I've not, actually, but I'm seeing her tonight, so…
Is Jeff back?
[Lue] He's back tonight. Do you need him?
No, no, no, all good.
Just, um, ah when er…
Once I've gone to see Amandine, I might need to just pop down
and see you guys for a little bit, if that's…
[Lue breathing heavily]
Listen, Lue, I should go. I've gotta get back to it, you know.
[Lue] Okay, love.
Love you.
I love ya.
[exhales]

[singer singing foreign language]
- Ah! - Hey!
[singer singing foreign language]
[Lue] I was born in 1876,
into a poor rural family.
Thank you.
And I came to Paris aged 16.
And for six years, I worked at a biscuit factory.
[laughs]
But at night,
I would draw the pictures I saw in my mind.
You are a genius, Madeleine.
Coco knows this.
If you get too big, she will destroy you.
How can you say that?
Coco is arguably the most influential fashion designer of all time.
- Madeleine… - She revolutionised
the way women dressed,
whilst capitalising her status as a fashion icon.
What's more, you're marrying her.
Madeleine…
Yeah, I know.
I should go, I think.
- Why? It's not even 3:00. - I know.
I need to pick up the kids from school.
Uh, what kids?
Nothing.
Madeleine.
Oh, yes, I should go.
Madeline…
Why are you here?
That's just it.
I'm not.
[Dr. Chowdhury] I'd like to welcome to the panel,
from Cauis College, Dr. Rita Hamley,
our very own Professor Junaid Gupta,
from the University of Santa Fe,
visiting professor Dr. Alison Brooker,
and from the University of Exeter, Dr. Jefferson Wilson.
[woman] Psychology is the study of mental
or behavioural disorders in…
[man] Historically, there has been a…
[muffled voices]
[Dr. Chowdhury] Dr. Wilson?
Um, I'm sorry, what was the question?
[Jeff thinking] We recently used neuroimaging
to investigate serotonergic and dopaminergic
neurotransmission in dogs with canine compulsive disorder,
or CCD.
…to measure the serotonin receptor availability.
[Dr. Chowdhury] Dr. Wilson, is everything okay?
[Lue] Jeff's done something.
Something terrible.
He doesn't know I know, but…
I know.
I know everything.
[door opens]
[Coco] Traitors!
[Lue] Coco!
- Coco? - [Coco] You betrayed me.
- [Lue] Coco, no! - [gunshot]
[screams] No, don't!
- [gunshot] - [screams] No, no!
- Lue. - No, no.
- [gunshot] - [screams]
No, no!
[whistle blows]
[dramatic music playing]
- [whistle blows] - [dramatic music playing]
[panting]
Hello?
[Jeff] Leave me alone.
[Lue] What are you doing?
Please don't jump.
Whatever it is, whatever's happening,
it's not too late.
Please. You're all right.
[Jeff sniffles, sighs]
[Lue] Here.
Here, grab me.
You're all right.
What's your name?
Jeff.
Do I know you?
[Jane] Right, I've locked the back door. I'll see you later.
Do you want me to bring anything?
Uh, just yourselves.
What are we having?
- Beef wellington. - Ah, Dom's favourite. Can't wait.
- See you! - See you.
[door closes]
Hello, Jamie.
The baby was yours.
Fine. Whatever.
You know, I just thought…
I dunno how you’d know that, but…
- I know. - Great.
Terrific.
[clears throat]
- I'm sure you have questions. - Me?
Nah.
Nah. You know, blah, blah, blah,
"Oh, I get it! Oh, I see now, of course!
- Silly me!" - [Amandine] Jamie…
I'm gonna go in a minute.
But before I do…
Dave,
Jason…
Jeff.
My best friend,
best man, at our wedding.
Lue's husband.
Greta's uncle.
Father to my parents' other two grandchildren, Wilf and Lily.
Greta.
My parents.
Lue.
Me.
Okay.
"I call from the deep!
Follow me!
Come with me, Jamie, let's go on a magic carpet ride!
Oh, look, there's a whale!
By the way, I'm pregnant!
Who cares? I'm floating on air!"
I smashed your violin.
- I know. - Good.
I get it, I know it's, you know, priceless,
one of a kind, all that, you know,
I don't know how you'll ever get over it.
So, that's that?
It's over, but you don't even want to know why?
All right, go on then.
For a laugh, let's have a giggle.
You tell me, go on.
You share with me, oh mysterious one, oh Amandine,
why hast thou swapped our lives for a cheap fuck,
for lots of cheap fucks?
- Does the amount matter? - Well, it does to me.
It does if one of 'em's my best friend.
Okay.
But forget about Jeff for a moment.
Okay, well, it's difficult to do that.
I mean, like, it's really fucking hard.
But if it was just the other two, or, say, one…
- Do you wanna pick one, or shall I? - [Amandine] Jamie…
To be clear, one is devastating!
- It's cataclysmic! - [Amandine] Cataclysmic?
Catastrophic!
Okay, so one is enough.
One is ample.
Okay.
[sighs]
Okay.
I cannot imagine how it felt.
The thought of it.
Me doing it with someone else,
the things that we did, and other things.
With Dave, the sex was okay.
Not amazing.
Jason was better.
He liked to roleplay.
You know, like, fantasy stuff.
Crazy shit.
He was pretty open- minded.
Jeff I feel bad about.
The first time we were doing it, I thought,
"Amandine, what the fuck are you doing?
This is Jamie's best friend.
What kind of a monster are you?
Just stop, stop it, stop.
It's just fucking wrong, it's so fucking…"
but then,
suddenly I just came really hard.
Huge orgasm.
For about a minute.
It's not what he was doing.
I mean, he was good, don't get me wrong,
but, uh, it was more, I dunno, the situation.
Yeah, I know it's hard to hear, but it's better to know, right?
Otherwise it'll just… drive you crazy.
Look,
I know what I did was terrible.
I've done terrible things.
Cheating is bad, cheating is awful, cheating is…
But then, is it?
I mean, it's only sex.
We have contraception.
And monogamy, it's a beautiful idea,
but you have to admit it's pretty fucking hard, right?
Asking one man to represent the whole of manhood for you.
He is the man, she is the woman,
the only one that there will ever be,
her vagina is all vaginas, his cock, the cock.
I mean, you have to admit, it's hard to live up to, right?
And faithful people, well…
they just sneak off and masturbate over someone else.
He's in the toilet imagining fucking the girl from work.
She's in the bedroom imagining sucking off the guy from the gym,
and then they both come out and they bathe the kids together,
watch Grand Designs.
But they are faithful people,
'cause they would never actually eat the ice cream,
because actually eating the ice cream is wrong.
Eating the ice cream is the worst thing in the world, it's evil.
You're only saying this 'cause you got caught.
Oh, you didn't catch me.
What?
Do you remember our manifesto?
Do you remember what it said?
It said, "Love is impossible.
If love is impossible, we must believe in the impossible.
We must believe in magic."
That was seven years, three weeks, and one day ago.
This was last year.

- Hey, Babe. - [Lue] Hey, you made it.
Just in time.
- How was it? - Oh, you know.
- How are the monkeys? - Upstairs.
They've been golden.
That smells lovely.
- What are we having? - Beef Wellington.
Hey, could you get some wine?
- On it. - Thank you.
[grunts]
Ah, fuck.
[phone ringing]
Hello?
Yeah.
Jeff.
- [Jeff] Yeah. - It's for you.
Hello?
Oh, hi Jamie.
We need to talk.
