Fuck, how good is Peggy's place?
Oh, my god, it's so good.
Meggles, I'm all nervous.
You love parties.
Yeah, but what if no-one likes him?
Who cares?
Do you like him?
Oh, fuckin' great.
No, I didn't I nodded.
I like him.
Yeah.
Do you think he's too old for me?
Do you think he's too old for you?
Do you?
Meggles, don't!
What?
You have to stop caring
about what everybody else thinks.
Maybe it's me.
Maybe I just don't feel right
about like turning 30
and dating someone in their 40s.
Like I feel like I've just
skipped a whole decade by proxy.
It's like I'm in my 40s
and yesterday I was 29.
What the fuck.
OK.
Have you heard from your dad yet?
Nuh, nothing.
It's probably his fault.
Maybe that's why
I'm into a grey beard.
Alright, just stop.
I mean, look around.
Look at Col. Life's good.
Look at him. He's such a good boy.
He's so happy. Hi, Colly.
And he's crippled.
He doesn't know he's crippled.
I'm gonna be like Col. Good idea.
Drink your drink.
Come here, hold my hand.
Don't tip me.
Do you like him?
Yeah, I do.
Great!
Happy 30th, my baby.
Don't tip

Ohh!
What young people?
Gee, I'm just gonna have to

and I just want it to be perfect.
Didn't you do the birthday thing
at her mum's?
Yeah, I did,
but fuckin' young people
just celebrate themselves
for a whole month, don't they?
Like it's
They love it because their bodies
aren't actively breaking

Her mates, obviously.
They're millennials.
They hate everything.
Fuck off. Get out.
No, I wanna see
what else you bought.
Just be cool, alright?
This is good. This is good.
No! What are you doing?
What?
The girl at Jay Jays
said it was lit.
That's not lit!
Yeah, well, she was on meth.
Man, it is so tight.
Is that a cuff?

You didn't say this was '80s theme.
Cute!
Oh, my god!
No, no, no, it's not.
Oh, um, Meggles,
if I could ask you to
It's a major breach of my RSA.
OK, I might go check the taps out.
No, no, no, we can do it here.
So, many rules.
Not really.
So, uh, who wants a drink?

GROUP: Yeah!
We don't have mescal, but I could
Oh, do you have froze?
Like Like rose slushie?

Like why don't we just do that?
Yeah
Can't do that, unfortunately.
Oh, rude.
Me? Um, who is gonna order a beer?
Not me. No. Mm, no.
But her early stuff
had a completely different sound.
I know, she's on a major journey
and, you know, I'm here for it.
So, am I.
Who's that?
Ah, St Vincent.
The hospital?
Oh, Gordy!
I am so, so sorry about him.
It's alright. Alright.
Ah, you're hilaire, G.

That's not fuckin' cool.
I'm already having a shit time.
OK.
She is so excellent.
But I'm married. To a man.
What is going on?
Calm down, mate.
You're twice her age.
Ah, hello pot, this is kettle.
You're old.
You'll always be older than me.
By like two months, mate.
That's right.
Whatever.
How good's Megan, eh?
Leave her alone.
What?
Hmm?
Huh?
I just
I don't think she's into you.
I'm pretty sure
we just made some good eye contact.
I'm pretty sure
we just made some good eye contact.
Just leave her alone.
Why?
Because Gordon is not OK, OK?
He's not happy
about the way things are going.
You should sort that.
Talk to me.
I mean, there's no spot next to Ash,
she's not introducing me to anybody.
I'm basically a fuckin' waiter
at my girlfriend's party.

You can do this.
Alright.
Nice.
And stop hassling the women.
OK.
Lesson learned.
Don't buy a white couch.

but they're actually not shots,
or shooters.
They are designed to be sipped.
Or experienced, really
(BELCHES)
..because we make everything
in-house with local ingredients.
In fact, you'll like this.
We've recently changed the supplier
for the oranges for our Hops
and Dreams Pale Ale.
In fact, that's the one
that you have there, mate.
Ooh, yummy, mate.
Yeah, yeah. So, anyway.

Um, I'll get her a seat.
Oh, no, you'll get them a seat.
Yeah, uh What?
They're non-binary, Gordon.

I liked it.
Oh, thank you!
Gin madam.
I distilled this last spring.

You been to Africa?
No, I don't need to. I got YouTube.
Mm.
Oi, check it out.
You can tell who's in charge,
who's half dead, who's in trouble.
You know, what?

Whoo!
OK, licence is over. You gotta go.
OK, ah, now
I am calling the bill $500,
which let's face it,
is extremely generous.
Brett is gonna put that on the bar.
Somebody had better come up
and sort that out now.
I'm an influencer.
I don't pay for shit.
I don't care.
Ash said this was free.
Hmm?
Did you, Ash?
Yes.
No
You said you'd take care of us

(KEYS JINGLE)
Sorry, hey. Are you mad at me?
Yeah.
Why? What'd I do?
What'd you do?
You just stood there all night
and watched while your friends
shat on me.
Yeah,
they they were bad and I'm sorry.
Um, is anything broken?
Oh, it's fine. Don't worry about it.
But I hope Ryan dies.
Oh, it's fine. Don't worry about it.
But I hope Ryan dies.
Like tonight.
Is that all?
No, actually, it's not.
I don't appreciate
being treated like a warm prop
in front of your ex.
You weren't.
You ignored me all night
and then you grabbed my dick
in front of James.
I did not grab your dick.
You fucking did.
I don't know
how this is gonna work, Ash,
if this is a night out with you
and your mates.
Maybe the age difference
is too much, I don't know.
OK.
I just don't party
like that anymore.
Oh, don't you?
Why are you still drinking then?
Because I just finished work.
Right.
But people in there
were doing fuckin' nangs
and snorting dexies.
Yeah, it got loose
because it was my birthday party.
It's not always like this.
Well, I'm past that.
Are you?
Yeah.
Yeah, I am.
Yeah.
No, you'd prefer just to drink
two bottles of red wine
and play online poker for hours.
That's real healthy.
You're mean.
No, I'm not, you're mean.
You embarrassed me
in front of my friends!
How? By being the consummate host?
I did everything.
You were tense
and you were fuckin' rude!
I wasn't
And then you kicked them all out!
I was tense
because I wanted everything
to be fucking perfect.
Well, it wasn't.
Well, according to your mate, James,
your dad did show up after all,
so you're welcome.
Wow, that's nice.
(CAN CRUSHING)
I don't think things
are meant to be this hard
this early on.
I agree.
We shouldn't have kept the dog,
because this isn't working.
I don't need this then, do I?
Later.
Later?
Yeah, Gordon.
You just broke up with me,
so, fuck off!
We are done!
Fine!
(GATE THUDS AND RATTLES)
Ah!
Oh!
Fuckin' hell.
Old lover, you miss me

this early on.
I agree.
We shouldn't have kept the dog,
because this isn't working.
I don't need this then, do I?
Later.
Later?
Yeah, Gordon.
You just broke up with me,
so, fuck off!
We are done!
Fine!
(GATE THUDS AND RATTLES)
Ah!
Oh!
Fuckin' hell.
Old lover, you miss me
Over the ocean,
I hope this finds you well
Warm sun on my back
The Earth on its axis
The violence when we met
We're good people
We're good people
But why don't we show it?
Dead birds on the stairwell
Some ugly morning
Fell from their nests
No, don't tell your parents
When we start sharing
Each other's beds
We're good people
But why don't we show it? ♪
