Perdonas Not now, pepe.
Jesus! What is it about Sweden? What's back there that's so important to you? Um, Emma? Emma? I can buy you ten emmas, better emmas.
We could have an audition for a new Emma in this office.
One who's shorter.
She's too tall for you.
I don't know why everybody keeps saying that.
We're the exact same height.
Let me buy you a drink.
Right now? It's noon-time.
Well it's nighttime in Sweden.
Let's go.
Adios, pepe.
Adios, miss Amy.
Adios, Bruce.
Goodbye, pepe.
Mm-hmm.
Honey, I wish you were home.
So I invested in a restaurant which folded, and then I started my own record company, you know, which was creatively satisfying, but financially a bust.
These sound like horrible decisions.
I would never have advised you to do this stuff.
This is why I need you here, Bruce! America moves so fast.
Let me tell you something.
Sweden is going to slow you down.
I've watched Swedish films.
They move at a glacial pace.
Good stories take time.
This is where you're supposed to live.
Emma's not here.
Emma? Who cares about Emma? Emma is anywhere! You can find a beautiful woman anywhere, I bet she's right in that restaurant.
Four tequilas, please.
Wow.
It's the middle of the afternoon.
Bruce, you need this.
Forget about Emma, forget about Sweden.
This is where you live now.
No, it isn't.
Yes, it is.
Sweden is a place one visits as a joke.
It's not where you live permanently.
That's not even true.
There's a lot of people that live there permanently, Amy.
Name one.
Okay, um, Emma.
Ugh, her again.
Cheers.
Cheers.
What are you doing? Are you mad at me? No, this is how, um, you toast in Sweden.
Ah, well, this is how they toast in the rest of the world.
Mmm Ooh, is this a four or a six? It's one.
Oh.
Can you put on the soccer match? No.
Why not? Because it's a soccer match.
That's right.
I apologize for my friend here.
Yeah.
I've been away a long time.
Yoo-hoo! So then I just left, you know.
And I don't know.
Maybe Marcus is, like, a better fit for her, I have no idea.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
It's hard, you know what I mean? What? It's hard.
Mmm.
This.
Right.
I don't know if we're even still together.
I've been trying to call her on her phone but she's not answering.
It's so deep, you know.
It's like meaningful stuff here.
Can love conquer everything when there's so many differences? Like, is love enough? Wow, Bruce, you are a really fun guy to get drunk with.
I know.
I've got to pee.
Hey, Aubrey, it's Amy.
Can you get down here? I need you.
Brucey! How are things going in the U.
S.

Do you know where Emma is, by any chance? I've been trying to call her.
She's not answering her phone.

You're worried.
You don't have to be.
She's having dinner with Marcus right now.
Wait, what? Can you say that again? Ah, sweet.
You're worried.
Not that, the other thing: Did you say she was on a date with Marcus? No.
Is she with Marcus? Well, yeah, but You don't have to worry.
She's in really safe hands.

You're both superheroes.
But Marcus is like Batman and you're like his assistant.

He got no gadgets but he's really, really cute.
He's Hello? Bruce? You know what, screw it.
