Orange walls, untamed children.
Bessy: You know, when I woke up for a second
I saw paul and I was like,

I'm leaving.
Leaving paul?
You already told me that.
Bessy: No, here. The facility.
Sabi: It's just that, like, you can't even walk.
Deenzie: But you know what else is behind me?

So you all need to get over it and start your own dreams!
Bryce: So you wanna reboot bar buk

In the art world.

Like my rental?
Ah, yeah, um, it just kinda feels like
We're getting in the middle of something,
Don't you think?
Jobs have days off, sabi.
Chill, union leader,
I'm on the phone with wolf.
He just found us a space for bar buk
And we might get it for dirty cheap.
As you were.
Sabi: Thank you. Okay.
Pre-loaded arrow's stuff last night.
Hold on. Arrow's coming?
Ah, king, I thought this was royals only.
Sabi, there's two faces to relaxation.
Time with friends.
Getting railed while lakeside.
Right, and what was I supposed to do
While you're going all animal planet?
Um, hey wolf, uh, what are you doing this weekend?
Yeah, if you're free,
Uh, we're kinda doing something.
7ven's got this cottage.
[softly] hey, babe.
[bessy snorts]
Oh shit.
What time is it?
What?
Nothing. What-what's up?
What are you doing home?
No, I'm going now. I'm gonna do a shop.
Ah, you want anything specific?
No, I'm good. Go.
Okay.
Sorry, it's just I rarely get alone time.
You gonna be okay?
Yes, please, just go. -Okay.
I'm dying of people.

Sabi: Yes, I-I understand.
I'm just wondering what your relationship
To the owner of the building is.
Hey babe, can we chill on the cheugy dad music?
Ya hunni. Daddy got you.
Arrow: Okay.
Are you gonna be on much longer?
It's a business call.
Sabi: Yes, I-I-I just don't want it to bite us in the ass.
Arrow: Hey, insta-cupids,
It's your babe, arrow.
Ahhhh!
Um, okay.
Okay, um, I should go.
Thank you, I'll-I'll be in touch.
I am here with my boo and her crew.
They're a bit sketch.
Well, that's why we're getting it so cheap.
Arrow: On our way to the cottage!
7ven: Heeeey!
Where we going, by the way?
The cot-tage! -Cottage!
But, like, where?
Who owns it? Nearest hospital?
Muskoka.
Belongs to my folks.
Sabi: Didn't it used to belong
To alanis morissette?
Or that guy from shrek?
Arrow: So, like, these two are our total besties,
Sabi and woof.
Yay!
How long have you two been together?
Sabi: Oh, um, [laughs]
We're just like fully colleagues.
Arrow: Y'all work at bar buk, nah?
What are y'alls job titles?
Um, officially, I dunno.
I guess I'm like a manager?
I share the same blood as the proprietor.
[quietly] sometimes I don't understand him when he talks.
Imo, y'all really shouldn't let the bar go under.
It is like legendary and the community really needs it.
[gasps] ooh! We can totally do a signal boost
If y'all wanna like, pay for it.
Oh my god, that's, like, so generous.
Hey.
Sorry, I just keep falling asleep today.
How did you get in here?
I used the key-rock you told me to.
Bessy: Oh, right.
Thank you for coming.
Jill: No problem.
What happened?
[dramatic gaming music]
Where's my headset?
[muffled chatter]
Bessy: Yeah, you know, I'm really lucky.
Jill: So, how is your, uh, your recovery?
Bessy: Apparently I'm doing really well.
Jill: Seems like it.
I reached out a couple years ago.
I thought, you know, if-
Yeah, I know.
I felt like I was ready to-
Yeah, I-I-I didn't.
Well, wait, you weren't ready?
I mean, you're the one who broke my heart.

Hello?
Mom?!
Raffo: Imran, get up!
Mom, what's going on?
Raffo: Your father is drunk!
Aqsa: He's what? -Aqsaaa.
Aqsa: He's drunk?
Oh my god, why is he?
I had several beverages.
Raffo: I didn't know what else to do.
I haven't even touched alcohol in my life.
So you called me?
What am I gonna do?
Of course I drank.
With this family of liars.
A wife who doesn't tell me the truth.
A brother who lies to me about my son.
Ajon, sabi is not my business.
You shut up!

Imran: My son.

Get ready for the most relaxingest weekend
Of your lives.
Oh yeah!
We're gonna partay! [laughs]
Ma?
Whoo!
What the f-
[gaia giggles]
Gaia: You gonna introduce me to your friends?
[disappointed] yeah.
Hiya, gaia.
Hi!
I thought you were supposed to be in amsterdam.
Oh I am, honey.
Just don't tell the people who pay me.
You're wearing too many patterns, baby girl.
I need to pee.
Sabi?
Hi! -Hey.
Gaia: Hello! -Hi, I'm arrow.
Hi arrow.
Arrow: Hi, this is woof.
Gaia: Hi woof!
You're a cutie.
Oh, really?
Jill: Why did you wanna see me, bessy?
Bessy: Okay, it's weird.
I felt like I died
And then I came back
And then you were one of the first people
That I wanted to see.
What was that like being in a coma?
Oh, I-I don't remember much.
I mean, I heard conversations
And, um, I was sort of reliving, uh, stuff,
But I wasn't really sure what was real or not.
And then I woke up and I was like,
I saw that this was my life
And I just really, really need to ask you a question.
So they let you leave work because your father is drunk?
Mom said it's an emergency.
I didn't know what it was.
You're a good daughter, you know that?
Am I?
Oh yes.
If I had a daughter like you...
That's sweet, uncle.
And I want to tell you, I see how it is.
I see what you do here,
And yet, it's always all about sabi.
I should go.
7ven: This isn't an accident.
She's crashing my shit again.
I get it.
7ven: She's competitive with me.
She gets in there, sabi.
She seeps into my life in this messed up way,
Steals my essence.
Remember prom theft 2014?
She was a chaperone, got drunker than we did,
Was eating face with the limo driver?
That was horrible.
But also a little bit fun.
Sorry.
Listen, if you wanna bail-
No, arrow's so stoked for this cottage weekend.
And I have to grow the eff up at some point.
And learn to handle my mother.
This has jets, yeah?
7ven: I can't just cancel our plans because my mommy's here.
Oh my god, those are totally jets.
Sabi, just focus.
I have hot tub weakness, sorry.
7ven: Ugh.
There isn't one outside, is there?
Sabi!
Sabi: Okay.
Options:
We go. Period.
Or we stay.
And you like have a chance at letting her not get to you.
Do you believe in me?
Always.
Stay.
Awesome.
Let's go deal with mommy.
Okay.
Come on.
Exposure therapy time.
Bye, tub.
Arrow: That's insane!
No, shh, listen, this is the best part.
So then I said, andy, you've been here 15 minutes.
I believe your time is up!
Arrow: That's funny cuz andy's a ridic name!
No, because it's andy warhol.
And?
Never mind.
It wasn't even him though so not that good a story.
Yo, you didn't tell me your mom is, like, total fire.
She's a force.
Who wants a tour?
Oh yes. -Yes, come!
Gaia: Wait till you see my crib, yo!
Arrow: Oh my god, look at it in here!
Look at the size of that tv!
[gasps] oh my lord, who is this babe?
Oh, that's my little girl,
Such a beautiful girl.
She was such a girly girl.
[arrow giggles]
Gaia: I miss my principessa.
Wow, gaia, great, like, art.
Gaia: Oh, well, come.
Doesn't this one just move you?
It's untitled #87. Dawn macknel.
I just had to have it.
It is a celebration of human endurance.
Seriously?
I mean, I respect that you have feelings about it
That are such as they are.
But I invite you to look at the work.
Look at it.
Like, really look at it. -Oh, yeah.
It's so dark.
Yeah.
It's a big black egg.
Right?
And you see that there?
That's actual currency.
It's a kind of indictment of capitalism.
Yes, because we hate money now.
7ven: I hung out with dawn macknel.
He told me literally everything I'm saying now.
I'm helping you understand pieces you actually own.
Well, thank god for you oh great art-sage.
Arrow: Awkward vibes!
You two are like twins.
Ew.
Mmm!
Who wants more to drink?
Ooh, yeah! -Yes!
Mm!
Do you have snacks?
I believe in you.
I don't.
Bessy: I don't remember why things ended between us.
I wanted to ask or I've been trying to remember.
Um, I don't know, uh,
But I have pockets of things that I like
Can't make sense of and-
Well, you fell in love with paul.
That's it?
Kinda, yeah. I mean,
I know it was much more sudden on my end, like,
I was the love of your life one minute,
And then you met paul and, you know, I wasn't.
Sorry, one sec. Hello?
Wolf: It's a lot of photos of one person.
Yeah, this is you.
Wolf: That's me?
Sabi: Yeah. -Well, that's you.
This with the...
Ooh, mysterious. Yeah, yeah. -Right? Yes.
And then a subtle flex. Is that marina abramovic?
Gaia's met like everybody.
This place is so...
Um...
Bougie?
Bougie, yeah. - Yeah.
You know, it would be, like, so amazing if, um...
What?
Nothing, it was just, um, kind of silly.
What were you gonna say?
I don't know, I'm...
Wouldn't it be amazing if there could be,
If we could build something for like artists,
And writers, and iconoclasts?
Yeah, yep.
Think that would make deenzie happy?
I don't think he'd care.
But my other dad he'd,
[sighs] he'd love it.
And that would make deenzie happy.
Can I sit there?
I just want a better view of the photos.
Oh, okay, yeah.

Paul: Hey!

From there?
