ANNOUNCER: This is
the final call for the 0800
to Los Angeles.
FIONA: Are you following me?
- Alice!
- Alice!
You're the very famous Billy Johnson.
Yeah.
FIONA: I'm really glad
that she doesn't know
about the real reason you texted her.
BILLY JOHNSON: (through video)
My love and I made a pact
that one day,
one of us would text "run."
I can't wait to read the book.
I gave you a lot of money.
I'd quite like some more.
Give me that bag of cash, because
(Ruby moaning through phone): Billy!
FIONA: I was in your hotel last night,
and now that I've got
Lawrence's number
Fiona, Alice,
she isn't following you, okay?
- She's following me.
- (whispers) I gave Alice the money.
- Oh, you No!
- Billy! We're on a train!
She literally can't have gone far.
- Fiona!
- Fuck you! (yells)
(both scream)
BILLY: My love and I
made a pact that one day,
one of us would text "run,"
and if the other person texted
"run" back within 24 hours,
we would meet at Grand
Central Station in New York,
get on a train,
and voom.
One week across America.
At the end of the line,
we'd have to decide
to stay together
or never see each other again.
November 28th, 2005,
I texted her. I heard nothing back.
January 12th, 2008, she texted me,
but I was busy, so
we've never actually done it.
I woke up this morning
with a funny sort of a feeling.
I wondered, what if today is the day?
What if she would text back today? So
I am about to text her,
and if, miraculously, she texts back,
I'm gonna grab that bag and leave here,
and I'm gonna meet her on that platform.
And whatever happens next
will be the premise of the new book deal
you're about to offer me.
So, you ready?

Yes!
Mm-hmm.
