"What are you doing?" "I'm hiding." "Okay..." "Cool, cool." "What am I supposed to do all night?" "Beats me." "This wasn't my idea." "See you in a few hours, then." "How long is this going to take?" "It's the holiday season." "Many people go to New York to enjoy summer." "What the hell happened?" "Um..." "Hide." "What?" "Just hide." "What the hell..." "Get down." "Thanks for giving me a ride." "Yeah, no problem." "It's so hard to write something smart using just 140 characters." "You'd have to be a genius to become famous on Twitter." "Right..." "What's so funny?" "I just thought of something funny." "Did you hear what I said at all?" "Yes, it's tough, it's hard." "Think about it. 140 characters." "Right, that's a lot." "That's... not a lot." "Right, that's not very much at all." "This is you, right?" "Yes." "Thanks for the ride." "No problem." "See you around." "Bye." "You've got a real competitor there." "Can you help me get out?" "My leg's asleep." "Yeah, all right." "Can't you come up with me to my room?" "I don't want to be alone." "Don't do anything stupid." "What are you doing here?" "I got worried." "So you followed me?" "No." "You have to tell me why you do this." "I don't have to do anything." "You're running away, just like me." "It's not the same thing." "It was all so much easier before I met you." "It was easier for me, too, before I met you." "But that doesn't mean it was better, does it?" "Please step away from the ledge, you're making me nervous." "I'll just sit here in silence till you tell me why you run here every night." "Maybe I just like the view." "I like running at night, when everyone's asleep." "Stop it!" "So you're not going to say anything?" "Why would I tell you?" "Because for the first time in my life I'm curious about someone." "I want to know all about you." "I want to tell you everything." "Stop being such a drama queen." "What do you want me to do?" "I've run half a marathon." "I've tried asking you nicely and I've tried pissing you off." "What will it take for you to tell me?" "They're dead." "They died in a car accident two years ago." "Is that why you dropped out?" "Yes." "I couldn't stand people feeling sorry for me." "They would say, "I know how you feel," but they don't." "'Cause no one knows how anyone else feels." "No..." "You happy now?" "Now you too can feel sorry for me." "No." "I won't." "I don't know how it feels or anything like that." "And no one needs to know." "No one needs to know about me." "Yes, they do." "You're the best, and you owe it to the world to reveal yourself to it." "And right now you're making me never want to go." "It's looking nice and warm." "No, it's not." "Yes, come on." "I don't want to." "A little further." "I've changed my mind." "Kristin." "A little bit further out." "It's super disgusting." "It feels great." "No, it doesn't." "You don't know what great feels like if this feels great to you." "You need to learn, it's now or never." "Take my hand, and we'll jump in." "You gay or what?" "Wanna become a swimmer?" "Yes." "But not a lesbian." "Relax." "One, two...jump!" "#705:" "LEARN TO SWIM" "That's great." "It's so hard to coordinate arms...and legs." "Come on!" "You're doing great!" "Stretch your legs, you're almost there." "Just a little bit more." "Stop being such a show-off, Neo!" "You've probably read about her adventures in her column about being a young Swedish girl living in New York." "She's now with us live." "Hi, Kristin." "Hi." " So, tell us..." " My, my..." "Seems busy." "I'm walking among the skyscrapers." "You have to keep your eyes open and take every chance." "Yes, it's a different world." "But you seem adjusted to your new life." "Yes, I'm living here with this girl, Andrea." "I don't know what I would have done without her." "So you're not homesick?" "Not even today, on Midsummer Night's Eve?" "What's herring and schnapps compared to Still and Snapple?" "Right, maybe not much." "Thank you, Kristin, with us live from New York." "Good luck!" "Thanks." "Happy Midsummer to everyone out there." "I hope they are inspired to do something with their lives." " You can read her column..." "You were so awesome!" "You're so good at lying!" "We have to celebrate." "Someone's having cuddle party." "The herring's served." "The guests will be here soon." "What do you mean?" "My Midsummer party." "You're having a party?" "Yes." "It's a hat theme." "Quite a few people are coming." "What about me?" "Can't you guys stay up here, if I get you a little wine?" "Cool, cool." "Coming!" "Great..." "I might as well drop dead right now." "It'll be fine." "We're in New York, remember?" "What else?" "I've been focusing more on hating stuff." "Like kids, swimming...and Linn." "But how did it get like that between you guys?" "I don't know." "We've just always competed with each other for friends, guys..." "Is it hard for you, or...?" "Not really." "I just don't think about it." "Don't..." "Oh my God, you're so cheap." "Just because you've got your own mansion." "I just graduated high school." "No, don't..." "All empty." "Hi!" "How's everything going?" "Fantastically." "Cool, cool." "Hi..." "Hi." "I just saw Linn!" "What's she doing here?" "I don't know." "Fuck, all my friends are here." "Don't worry, it's cool." "What are we gonna do?" "Come with me." "Holy shit..." "Come on!" "I'm so relieved I'm not at that party." "Being with a bunch of people you don't even like." "I'm so sick of it." "You're so disgustingly innocent." "Cut it out." "Just because I don't sleep around." "What are you doing?" "What?" "That's something you'd say." "Yes." "But don't you become like me." "Like Kristin or like Kristin?" "I just wanted people to like me." "But what if Linn's right?" "What if I don't have what it takes to make it?" "Everyone will see right through me." "It's a good thing if people can see through you." "Then they'll see how great you are." "Fuck, they're coming here!" "Sit down!" "They can't see me!" "It'll be fine." "No, it won't be!" "Yes, you're with me." "Last one in is a dumb-ass!" "Sit down." "Kristin?" "What the hell's going on?" "No, don't!" "No!" "What the hell are you doing?" "She can't swim!" "Yes, she can!" "Kristin!" "Kristin!" "Kristin!" "Does anyone have a phone?" "What do you think you're doing?" "I thought I'd ride along." "It's relatives only." "Don't you think you've done enough?" "And you people..." "You all owe me 500 bones each." "Hear about Kristin?" "She was never in New York." "You heard?" "I know." "It's insane." "I don't know what to say." "It's insane." "She's like hiding in a house in the woods." "Here!" "She's never really been there." "That's such a bitch move." "What did she live off?" "So fucking sad." "So disgusting." "At that party..." "She just jumped into the water." "She wanted to die." "Too embarrassed." "NEW YORK TRIP WAS A HOAX" "LINN SPEAKS OUT" "She's pretty brave, at least." "Hi, honey." "Hi..." "You gave us a real scare." "Have you slept at all?" "It's Rickard." "I think he looks really good." "Daddy is going to make you some chili." "It's looking good, so we're going to send you home tomorrow." "Bye, Kristin." "Bye." "This is completely outrageous." "A snotty kid gets in over her head, lying to a whole town of people." "It's bigger than Lewinsky, Woods, and King Carl fucking Gustaf combined." "You realize what this means?" "I'm so sorry." "I really, really am." "Why are you sorry?" "Since we outed it, our numbers are through the roof." "Our sales are like a Boeing 7 47." "Everyone wants to read about your failure." "But..." "It's time we found out who this Kristin really is." "But..." "No buts!" "What did I say about that?" "Here's what you'll do." "In your next column you'll come clean about lying." "Then, you go." "It'll be great." "Go where?" "To New York, where else?" "I've booked your ticket, you're all set." "Write up your column, Kristin." "Give us your story." "It's going to be a hit." "Hi, it's Kristin Wester." "I'm in New York right now but you can reach me via email or sms." "Hi, it's me." "Give me a call when you're feeling better, okay?" "Bye." "Look at that." "Overtaking me right before the traffic light." "You only see Volvo drivers doing that." "So, what now?" "Are you back together with Arthur?" "Dunno." "What's the matter?" "Nothing." "I won't say anything, it's better." "Hi..." "I've got a little surprise for you." "What surprise?" "And why are you dressed like Marilyn Monroe?" "Come in." "What is it?" "If I tell you, it won't be a surprise." "One...two...three..." "Surprise!" "The money from the bet paid for your homecoming/goodbye party." "Pretty cool, huh?" "It's New York." "Hi..." "Nice to see you." "What is it?" "Hi, Kristin..." "Hi." "Thanks." "A Manhattan?" "No." "Relax." "Have fun." "What do you mean?" "It's a party." "So party." "You could at least enjoy yourself." "Hi, Kristin." "I don't feel like enjoying myself." "Should your failure be the last thing people remember?" "Hi..." "Go on, take it." "Here's to Kristin." "Cheers!" "I don't have a costume." "Yes, you do." "He can be the sweetest guy if he really wants to." "But then he acts completely different, and I'm like, what are you doing?" "So then this morning..." "Spider-Man..." "It's actually me." "Oh, my God, hi!" "Wow, how are you?" "It all happened so fast with us." "What do you mean, "us"?" "There was never an "us."" "You're way too good for me." "Right?" "Yeah, I know..." "So Arthur..." "Throw yourself out among the skyscrapers..." "Don't joke around about this." "Arthur..." "It is a joke." "Hey..." "Are you okay?" "You sad?" "Yeah..." "This was always going to happen." "Why are you so logical about everything?" "This is all your fault." "You had to throw your stupid party." "You'll get over it." "No." "Maybe it'll pass, but I'll never get over it." "You seen Kristin?" "The Ninja Turtle." "Huh?" "She's over there." "Hi." "Hi, are you here?" "I heard you were having a goodbye party." "Yeah, I got a new ticket, so I had to do something." "Come on!" "I'm coming." "Where have you been lately?" "I just haven't had time." "Here." "Have a drink." "What are you doing?" "What do you mean?" "I don't recognize you." "It's a costume party." "It's kind of the point." "You're an idiot." "No..." "I'm a Ninja Turtle." "I thought you were better than this." "Yeah, well..." "Okay." "A drink?" "Can't you just enjoy yourself?" "What do you mean?" "You're young." "You don't have to feel so goddamned much." "Let go a little..." "You have no idea what I'm feeling." "No." "Because I don't know you, and you don't know me." "No one knows how anyone else feels." "Isn't that what you said?" "Cheers." "Sure." "It's good to see you live a little." "Since you haven't lived all summer, right?" "Hi!" "Hi." "What are you supposed to be?" "Kristin." "Nice." "Thanks." "You okay?" "Yes." "Come on, you look so sad." "You're Spider-Man." "You can't look all sad if you're Spider-Man." "You're supposed to save the world." "Yeah, okay." "Come on." "Yeah, sure..." "Or, I mean..." "Can't we go back to my place?" "No, it has to be here and now." "Got a condom?" "In my jacket." "Fuck it." "Andrea?" "Andrea!" "Hang on." "Wasn't that Kristin?" "You want to do it, or what?" "Fuck it." "Andrea!" "No..." "Yes." "Stop it." "What, you don't want to?" "Of course I don't fucking want to!" "Andrea!" "Andrea, wait up!" "Andrea!" "Andrea, wait up, please!" "Andrea!" "What do you want?" "I want lots of things." "What do you want from me?" "What do you want me to do?" "I don't know." "Great, then." "Andrea..." "What?" "I'm sorry." "For what?" "For being me." "But this isn't you." "Maybe you just don't know me." "You were you, in New York." "Stop calling it New York." "So it didn't mean anything?" "Andrea, I'm sorry." "I didn't mean it like that." "Andrea!" "I don't know who I am." "But I know who I'm not." "I'm not this." "I don't want to play this game anymore." "But how do you it, then?" "If you just want to be yourself?" "I'm not sure about anything anymore, but I know one thing." "The person you think I am, that's not me." "No one knows me, except for you." "You're my best friend." "Because when I'm with you, you make me like myself." "I'm not doing this anymore." "I'm not going to listen to everyone else." "I'm not going to take on any more responsibility." "I can't." "I'm too young." "There are so many things I don't know." "So many things I haven't felt." "So many things I want to do..." "That I should do." "Lots of mistakes." "I should make more mistakes." "There was no Central Park, no yellow taxi cabs." "And the skyscrapers were just ugly pine trees." "But everything I wrote from there was real." "You and me, we were New York." "And now I'm left alone." "I'm starting high school in the fall." "Or taking an evening class, or whatever..." "I have to do something." "Let's go home." "What do you say?" "I am doing it." "And you have to listen to me, because you're all I've got now." "Yeah..." "Come here." "It's going to be all right." "You're sitting there, thinking you've understood it all." "Right?" "As if you knew me." "But you don't." "Because no one - no one - knows how anyone else feels." "We can never know." "But we can show that we care, and I didn't." "It's irrelevant that I never went to New York." "The column wasn't the lie." "It's everything before it." "And now I've lied to you." "You, who were everything but all that." "I guess it wouldn't be completely impossible to do, maybe." "I don't want to see you." "Wait, please..." "Don't close the door." "Can't you just leave?" "I won't say anything." "I just want you to open this present." "I love you." "When did you measure it?" "When I was bored once." "This doesn't change anything." "I know." "But it's nice." "Here, take it." "It's yours." "But I..." "No buts." "I don't need it anymore." "It's all in there." "I want to stay." "No, you don't." "Yes, I do." "I don't want to go to New York." "It feels so pointless now." "It seems like you haven't thought this through." "I haven't." "But I've felt it through." "That is so pretentious." "Shut up..." "Hey..." "You really have to go." "You've wanted this since forever." "I know, but..." "No buts." "Oh, no?" "We both know you'll regret it if you don't go." "Why don't we finish watching that movie?" "Yeah." "Nysäter, please." "Did you have a pleasant journey?" "Very." "I have a list." "A book with a thousand things that I want to do." "But none of that matters anymore." "Because there's two sides to everything." "What's visible on the outside, and what's inside." "If you just listen." "I hate myself and I love myself." "Subtitling by Mario Bernengo TC:subtitling"
