A NETFLIX SERIES
[man 1, on tape] Acknowledge how you feel.
Breathing in
[Wilhelm inhales deeply]
[man 1] and letting go
when you breathe out.
[exhales deeply]
[man 1] Breathe in
[inhales deeply]
[man 1] and out.
[exhales]
[man 2] Quite honestly, I was surprised
when I saw that you called.
But maybe it doesn't totally suck
having a stepdad
who's the best lawyer in Sweden?
[chuckles]
I wouldn't have called you
if I had anyone else to call.
[stepdad] Yeah.
But, hey, to answer your question
Spreading this kind of video
could be considered grave defamation,
a serious,
unlawful violation of integrity,
and possibly a child pornography offence.
The penal value is prison, in any case.
What? Prison?
[man 1, on tape] Imagine all your worries
and thoughts just melting away.
Accepting whatever you might feel.
Breathe in
[inhales deeply]
- [man 1] and out.
- [Wilhelm sighs]
[August] What happens if I just confess?
[stepdad] There is nothing to gain
by confessing.
ANXIETY AND PANIC
You have to look at the evidence,
who the injured party is.
[August] An injure Wh-wh
- What's an injured party?
- [stepdad] The victim.
Is all this concerning that scandal video?
["So Close" by Roberts,
Mirza & Dececio plays]
Yeah ♪
I'm so far, I'm so close ♪
New routines. Um We're not gonna be
in Forest Ridge House anymore.
We'll be in the gatehouse.
So close ♪
[Vincent] Come on! This is our last push!
- I'm so far, I'm so close ♪
- [music fades out]
[boy grunts]
Does anyone know where the hell August is?
Don't know. Maybe it's a protest.
- A protest? Against what?
- Against you taking over.
I mean, he's sabotaging the entire team
when he does this.
[whistle blows]
Do I have to start
punishing third-years too
for you to understand
how important this is?
I can't have people on my team
who don't perform. It's as easy as that.
We're competing against Sprucewood
in three days.
The bar is so fucking damn low, guys!
It's unbelievable.
Yeah. Get it together.
Okay, boys, let's hit the machines.
- [pants] You okay?
- [Vincent] Back-turns, all of you.
Well, he doesn't think I cut the team,
that's for sure.
- Hey, who gives a shit?
- [Simon sighs]
But it doesn't exactly feel great
to know that we cheated.
- Hey, come on, it's no big deal.
- [Simon] It is for me.
It doesn't matter if you guys cheat.
You'll always get away with it.
I always have to prove myself,
otherwise, he'll just blame me.
- Okay, sorry. I was just trying to help.
- [Vincent] Focus, back there!
Come on, sit your asses down.
Simon, you can sit here, assist.
As I said, it's important
that we get everything sorted,
and make sure to get a feeling
for the machines,
'cause these are the ones
we will be competing with.
[Felice] Sara,
there are some people coming tomorrow
to check out Rousseau,
so maybe you don't have to be here then.
- [Sara] But I want to be here.
- Are you sure about that?
Yeah. I want to know
what kind of people they are.
[cell phone chimes]
WILHELM: WYD? CAN'T STAND BEING ALONE.
[Felice] It's Wille.
It seems like he wants to talk.
I might have to head over there later.
[Sara] What do you mean?
You're gonna miss dinner.
I'll just tell the housemistress
I've got PMS.
PMS?
[Felice] If anyone asks,
just tell them I'm in my room.
Yeah, okay, fine.
Are you hungry?
Yeah, but, I mean,
it's isterband for dinner,
so we might as well skip it.
So what would you like then,
if you could have anything?
- [Felice] No idea.
- Your impulse. Go.
- Uh
- [Wilhelm] Go, go, go, go.
Pasta.
- [Wilhelm] Yeah?
- Or no No, no, no. Um
Sushi. Uh, poké bowl.
- God, I love that. Bibimbap or
- [ringing tone]
- No, poké bowl. That would be amazing.
- [Jan-Olof] Crown Prince?
- [Wilhelm] Hi, Jan-Olof. Hi, um
- [Jan-Olof] Hello.
I'm just calling to let you know,
that the food hasn't been that great
over here this last week
and I feel like it's starting
to affect my focus.
- I need someone to get here with food.
- [Jan-Olof] Very well.
I was thinking like, um
sushi would be great.
- [Jan-Olof] Sushi, you say?
- [whispers] Poké bowl.
- Sorry, poké bowl. That would be nice.
- [Jan-Olof] Uh, poké bowl?
[Wilhelm] Mm-hmm.
Make that two, I'm pretty hungry.
- Great. Thank you. Bye.
- [Jan-Olof] Two poké bowls.
You really just called the Royal Court
for that?
[chuckles] Yeah.
[both chuckle]
Well, what do you know?
- [Simon panting]
- [Rosh] Come on, switch. Higher.
- Switch.
- I'm starting to cramp up.
- [Ayub] Done soon?
- Come on, switch.
- [Ayub] I'm starving and it's freezing.
- Higher.
Come on, come on. Higher, higher!
- No.
- [Rosh] What do you mean, "no"?
- Five more. Five more.
- [Simon] No.
[Rosh] You wanted to improve your stamina
for the rowing team.
It won't improve
if you just sit here and slack off.
Why do you even row, bro?
- [Rosh pants]
- [Simon] I've already told you.
You have to compete for your house
if you want any chance of getting an A.
Oh, yeah? Not because Wille's on the team?
- [Ayub] Exactly.
- No.
It kinda feels like you have trouble
keeping away from him.
[Ayub] Aren't you rebounding with Marcus?
He, uh, came up to us in the cafeteria
and asked for you.
- [Simon] What?
- He thought you were sick or something.
He said you haven't answered
any of his texts.
[Simon] Ugh.
Look, he's nice and all, but it
[hesitates, sighs] It feels like
It just feels like he likes me for real.
Okay, and you don't, or what?
[exhales] I don't know.
I just don't understand
why I can't fall in love with him.
[sighs]
- [Ayub] Oh well. Time for some pizza now.
- [Rosh] Again? We had pizza yesterday.
[cell phone chimes]
MARCUS: WANNA GET TOGETHER THIS WEEK?
- [clang]
- [Ayub] Hey. Are you coming?
- Yeah, chill, man.
- [Ayub] I'm freakin' starving.
- Jesus, man. It's so fucking cold.
- [Rosh] Well, I'm not having pizza.
[music plays softly on speaker]
This is really good.
Why haven't we done this before?
[chuckles softly]
Don't know actually.
I asked Simon about Marcus.
Told me they didn't know each other.
Yeah, but, maybe that's just
because there is nothing going on?
- I checked his cell phone.
- [Felice] Come on, Wille.
- Seriously?
- [Wilhelm] It was stupid, I know.
He was lying to me though.
They do know each other.
I think they're dating.
- [music continues]
- [Wilhelm] For real.
Do you remember when she loved you? ♪
- [sighs]
- Remember how she always ♪
I know it should be okay
that he's seeing other people.
I know it should feel okay,
but it just doesn't.
It's impossible to feel that way.
[music continues on speaker]
And it's my fault as well.
[sighs] Shouldn't you just ask him,
so that you know?
You and me made a lover ♪
- [girl] What the hell are you doing?
- Yo, Dan, stop for fuck's sake.
[students chattering]
[sighs]
- [door opens]
- [Nils] Thanks, Boris.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Here to see the socialist?
- Yeah. [chuckles softly]
But, like, he's actually pretty decent.
But anyway, you know that.
Erik went to him as well.
I mean, maybe our thing's
not his strong suit,
but he's, like, "LGBTQ certified,"
so it'll be fine.
And just let me know
if you wanna talk. See ya.
[students chattering indistinctly]
- [door closes]
- [Wilhelm] Did Erik come here?
[Boris] Wilhelm, I'm
not allowed to answer that.
But when you're struggling,
it can be helpful to see someone like me,
so that, uh
so that you don't feel
you have to risk hurting somebody.
- [grunts, sighs]
- [Wilhelm] I didn't know that.
- [Boris sighs]
- [mug clinks]
It's just that he was always saying that
we should keep what's private private.
That's how we were raised.
Otherwise
Otherwise, people take advantage.
[Boris] And, um
how does that make you feel?
To live with that pressure, I mean.
Huh?
[sighs] I don't know. I feel lonely.
I mean, I was lonely before as well
with Erik, but
I was, like, okay with it
because I knew that he was there.
[somber ambient music playing softly]
But last semester, I I met a friend
who stirred up new feelings in me.
[breath quivers] In some way,
I wish that it had never happened.
It was kind of better not knowing
how it can feel.
[teacher] All the books are from
the late 1800s and early 1900s.
Those of you who have picked the same book
are gonna form a group.
- And then I want you to read and reflect
- Hi. I'm sorry I'm late.
Yes, it's all right. Now, let me see.
They have picked books.
Swedish writers from the early 1900s.
And the one we have left is Karin Boye.
Yeah, Crisis, a very interesting author.
I want you to do an oral presentation,
so it's important that everybody
participates in order to pass.
Find your groups, and then find
a good study room and get to work.
[students chattering]
- [Henry] How is it spelled?
- [Walter] It's not that difficult.
- It's spelled with a "y."
- Just be a bit creative, man.
- It's on the cover.
- [chuckles]
[Simon typing]
- [Henry] Karin Boye.
- [Wilhelm] Karin Boye, yeah.
[Simon] "Karin Boye was born
in the year 1900."
"Crisis is an autobiographical novel
about 20-year-old Malin Forst,
who studies to become a teacher
during the 1920's in Stockholm."
"She goes through a deep religious crisis,
while at the same time,
she develops feelings
for a fellow female student,
which awakens a need to find her own truth
beyond all fixed ideals."
[Henry] What?
So it's about God or something?
I only picked it
because it was the shortest.
I don't know about you guys.
- It was the only one she had left.
- [chuckles]
So, um, how are we gonna divide this up?
I'm not speaking during the presentation.
- You guys can do that.
- [Henry] Wasn't Sara in our group too?
Yeah. She, uh, left her notebook
in her room. She'll be right here.
Yeah, okay. Well, in that case,
I'm gonna go and get some coffee.
- Yeah, uh, one double espresso, please.
- [Maddie] Could you get me a
Why did you say you didn't know Marcus?
I said I did.
[Wilhelm] But not that you hang out.
If there's something going on
between you, just tell me.
[Simon inhales deeply]
Okay.
We're hanging out.
[Wilhelm sighs]
Okay.
- [pen scribbling]
- That wasn't so difficult.
[scribbling continues]
[somber ambient music plays]
[inhales deeply, exhales]
We're not together.
[scribbling stops]
[Simon] It's really none of your business
but we're not.
- [Henry] Hmm. Okay.
- [mug clatters]
[Henry] Have we made any progress?
Anything good?
- Uh, no, just facts, really. The 1920s
- [Henry sighs]
- Should we start by reading out loud?
- [Wilhelm] Sure. I can go first.
- [Henry] Yeah.
- [pages shuffling]
[somber ambient music continues]
[keypad clacking]
SIMON: HI MARCUS.
WE HAVE TO TALK
WILHELM: I SPOKE TO SIMON.
THEY'RE HANGING OUT,
BUT THEY'RE NOT TOGETHER.
FELICE: THERE YOU GO! THERE IS STILL HOPE.
[sighs deeply]
- [in Swedish] You know it hurt ♪
- [keyboard playing]
I gave up on myself ♪
I was lost before I found my way ♪
What we had ♪
Our loving ways ♪
[playing melody]
[in English] Hey!
[clicks tongue] And gallop! That's it!
- [Rousseau nickers]
- [man] Hup!
Come on! [clicks tongue]
- Whoa! Just tried to cheat again.
- [Rousseau whinnies]
[man] A bit more.
- Hey! Hup!
- [Rousseau snorts]
[man] Hey. Listen to me.
- [whispers] You listen, you old fart.
- [man] Come on.
[boy] Dad, doesn't he seem
kind of jittery? No?
- [man] I think he feels pretty good.
- [Rousseau nickers]
If he can't handle the pressure
during competitions,
well, then it's no use.
Come on! There.
- Come on!
- [Rousseau nickers]
Yeah, yeah [groans]
- [exhales]
- [son] So what do you think?
It's, uh up to you, Niklas.
[breathes deeply]
Yeah, well, I don't know.
It feels like he's acting up.
He seems to lack discipline.
He has a great pedigree, this horse.
Yeah, but we've seen
great pedigrees before. That's
That's no guarantee it'll work, right?
- Yeah, but maybe you are the problem.
- Excuse me?
- [Sara] He's not a riding machine.
- [chuckles]
Yeah, what Sara is trying to say is that,
sometimes, some thoroughbreds
need a bit more time
Yeah, but time is no guarantee either.
Are we done here or?
[softly] Hmm. Come on.
[father] Let's see
if you get a horse or not.
- [son] Mm.
- [softly] Well
[Sara] You can't sell to them.
I mean, they're everything
that's wrong with horse people.
No. [sighs] Of course,
we're gonna find someone better.
[gate clattering]
- Promise.
- [Felice] Promise.
Come on.
[music teacher] I have a class.
Of course, she'll be late.
Yes, will do. Bye.
Miss? Uh
I've been thinking about what you said,
about what song I'll sing at the jubilee.
I have an idea.
That is, if you want something
more modern.
- I can show you, if if I may?
- [music teacher] Of course. Come.
I started playing the Hillis song
and I thought that maybe we could do,
like, this instead.
[in Swedish]
Day's behind us, years gone by ♪
[piano playing]
They say that wounds
Will heal with time ♪
[in English] And then,
the choir comes in on
[holds note] Oh ♪
[piano plays]

- Memories will never fade ♪
- [piano fades out]
[music teacher, in English]
Did you write that yourself?
- [Simon] Mm-hmm.
- It's really good.
We'll have to remove the profanity
and also add Hillerska somewhere,
so that people understand
that it's about the school.
First, I'll have to speak
to the principal, of course,
but it's a great arrangement you have.
That's why you are here, Simon.
- You've got talent.
- [Simon chuckles]
[indistinct chattering]
[cutlery clinking]
[indistinct chattering]
[cutlery clinking glass]
[chatter fades out]
Okay, everyone.
The time has come.
Tomorrow, it will be decided.
The competition against Sprucewood.
Inside rowing admittedly, but still
And they are our worst enemies,
am I right?
Sometimes, they may beat us
in one event or another,
but never at rowing.
There, they are our fucking slaves.
And I want to keep it that way.
So tomorrow, I want to see a nice,
clean slaughter, so to speak.
[boys chuckle]
[Vincent] Leave the scraps
and dump the corpses.
Because we will show those fucking rats
that we are the best student house
in this entire school.
- [boy] Mm. Yeah.
- Okay?
- [boys] Yeah.
- [Vincent] Yeah?
- Didn't you hear what I said?
- [boys] Yes!
[Vincent] Down with Sprucewood.
Come on now.
[Walter] Great speech.
What are you smiling about?
- Uh [chuckles]
- I said, what are you smiling about?
- I wasn't smiling.
- [Vincent] So you're talking back at me?
Vincent
- [glass clinks]
- [water splashes]
You'll do the third-years' dishes,
together with August here.
You don't skip practice.

[August sniffs]

[pills rattling]
[exhales softly]
- [knocking on door]
- [pill bottle clatters]
- Yeah? [sighs]
- [door opens]
Hi. Um
Vincent wanted me to ask
if you're coming to the shooting range,
tomorrow, after the race.
He and, uh, Nisse are going.
You can tell Judas that I'm not
I'm not ready to make peace yet.
- Okay?

- [August panting softly]
- [music fades out]
- [Sara] Hi!
- [August] Hey.
What are you doing here?
I just wanted to
talk for a bit.
- Hi.
- [Rousseau nickers softly]
[snorts]
Hey, would you like to maybe come home?
I mean, c-come over to my place tonight,
and we could
Well, I mean, you could like sneak in,
or-or take the fire escape, or
But why?
I just wanted
I just needed to talk to someone.
- Or fuck it. I mean, it's not [scoffs]
- No, I mean, I'd love to.
- [Simon] Hi. What's up?
- See you at rowing.
- Bye.
- [Sara] Bye.
What was he doing here?
Like, are you friends now or what?
No.
Good.
- [Sara] Why's that good?
- He's an asshole.
[chuckles] Yeah, but it feels like
he's trying not to be.
And you're the one who says
you should give people a second chance,
and a third, and a fourth,
and a fifth, you know, like with Dad.
[sniffs, sighs]
What are you doing here anyway?
You don't usually come here.
- I wanted to see what you were up to.
- Okay, so you're not here to see Marcus?
[Simon] Yeah, I am.
[gasps softly, singsong]
He's here to see Marcus.
[quad bike rumbling]
- Hi.
- [Simon] Hi.
What are you doing here?
I just came by to say goodbye
to my long-lost sister.
[Marcus] Uh-huh. I'm nearly done.
Do you wanna do something?
I can't tonight. I gotta get up early.
- [engine stops]
- [Marcus] How come?
'Cause of rowing.
We're, uh, training for the competition.
[Marcus] Okay.
[inhales deeply] Uh
I thought that we needed to talk.
Okay. About?
What about?
[exhales] Look, I don't think that I'm
ready for something serious.
I just thought I should tell you.
Look, it's okay if you're not ready.
I mean we're not in a hurry, you and me.
I can wait.
- It It's cool.
- But I don't know when I will be.
Is it Wilhelm?
No.
Or, well, there
has been
quite a lot of drama with him.
Hey, look, I haven't seen the video.
But I've heard all about it
and all the rumors.
I get that he fucked you over,
but I'm not like him.
I would never hurt you.
[Simon] I never said
that I thought that you would hurt me.
I mean, you're really great and kind and
I think that you're, like, perfect.
It's-It's not about that.
[sighs] I just can't right now.
Okay.
No offense, but I just want
to be honest with you.
Maybe you don't really have
the best role models
for healthy relationships, after your dad.
Mom told me about how Linda was feeling
after that thing with Micke,
and I get that it must have been hard
for you and Sara.
But
you are not like your dad.
[dreamy ambient music plays]
[Marcus] Come here.
I know you don't want
to destroy something this beautiful.
We'll just take it slow, no stress.
[music continues]
You going home?
I can come cheer you on
at the rowing competition if you like.
[Simon] Well
you don't have to.
[music fades out]
[knocking on door]
- Hi.
- Hi.
[Sara chuckles awkwardly]
Thanks.
You smell like a horse. [chuckles]
[chuckles] Sorry.
I'll just take this off.
Yeah, I've um, never done this before.
What do you mean?
Well, I I thought we were gonna
I mean I thought that since you asked if
[August] Yeah, no, I didn't mean that. I
I just wanted to talk, you know.
- To talk?
- [August] Yeah.
Okay.
- What do you wanna talk about?
- [August inhales deeply]
Well, the Queen has
summoned me to the castle.
[Sara] Oh. Okay.
[August] And I just know
it'll be about what I did.
That fucking video.
- I'm going there tomorrow after rowing.
- But it might not be a bad thing.
I mean, you told me how you feel
like you're just going around
waiting for a kick in the head.
- Now you can see the kick coming at least.
- [August chuckles softly]
- Yeah, I guess so. [chuckles]
- [Sara chuckles]
[August sighs] I don't know.
It just feels like everybody's gonna,
like, hate me.
and I'm, like, gonna lose everything.
I just feel like the
worst person in the world.
[Sara] Yeah. But sometimes,
it just feels like everyone hates you.
It was like that for me.
And if I could handle it, then
you can handle it too.
[dreamy ambient music playing]
- [giggles] Take it off.
- [chuckles] If you want.
I don't think you're the worst person
in the world.
[August inhales sharply]
[music continues]
Do you have a condom?
Yeah.
[both chuckle]
- S-Stay here. [chuckles]
- Oh.
[drawers opening]
[drawer closes]
- [August groans] Oh, the fuck?
- [Sara laughs]
- [August] Slow and steady. [laughs]
- [Sara chuckling]
- Do you need some help?
- No, I know what I'm doing.
[Sara chuckles] Come here.
[both breathe softly]
[Sara] Where are you going?
- Huh?
- Yeah, I want you up here. Stay with me.
[dreamy ambient music continues]
[door closes]
[shoes clatter]
- [Felice] Hi.
- [Sara] Hi.
[Felice] Have you been
at the stables until now?
- [Sara] Mm-hmm.
- [Felice chuckles]
Of course, you wanna spend as much time
as possible with Rousseau.
- [chuckles softly]
- [Sara] Mm.
[Felice] Hey.
Have you read your horoscope?
[amused] No.
[Felice] Okay, here's what it says.
[clears throat]
"If you're single,
you are ready to meet someone."
"And right now,
you're sending out signals
subconsciously."
"Venus makes you unusually charming,
and you attract many admirers
to your side."
"If you're in a relationship,
you have to watch out,
so you don't end up
in some jealousy drama."
- [Sara chuckles]
- [sheet rustles]
- [Felice] Ew. Are you not having a shower?
- [Sara] No. I mean, uh
I like to, uh, smell like him. [chuckles]
- Mm Okay, weirdo.

- [Sara] How do you know who's winning?
Well, you can follow them on the screen
and see how far they've come.
- But what do they even win?
- Glory?
[boys shouting indistinctly]
- Come on, Simon! Woo!

[Vincent] Damn it!
[cheers distancing]
[Marcus] Hey! You were incredible.
- [Simon sighs]
- We'll get 'em next year.
[distant cheering]
Okay?
I have to get back to school, but
talk later?
[Simon] Mm-hmm.
- [boy 4] What the hell? How could we lose?
- [Vincent] Fucking unbelievable!
This wasn't supposed to happen, man.
It was that fucking switch!
Simon held it back too far.
He held the sleigh wrong.
I was totally fucked out there!
- You didn't say anything about that.
- [Vincent] It's fucking basic knowledge.
Even a three-year-old would get it.
- Everyone knows that.
- Why blame him? It's totally uncalled for.
[Vincent] But you know
how important this match was.
[August] It doesn't fucking matter.
It's not real.
All of this is just about creating
some sense of community,
which we don't have anyway,
so it's not important.
It really isn't.
[Simon] You know what, Vincent?
I quit the team.
I don't have to take this.
- Yes, please do. Go.
- [boy 4] What the hell was that?
[Vincent] Well, I for one say
we get back at them.
Tonight, we go over to Sprucewood,
and then we egg their house. Okay?
- Yeah. Okay.
- Yeah?
[students chattering indistinctly]
[Henry] Wille.
Wille.
Wanna come to the café?
Uh No, I have too much studying to do.
I have to read this book too.

JAN-OLOF: THE CAR IS WAITING OUTSIDE.
[car engine rumbling]
[suspenseful ambient music plays]
- [softly] Thanks.
- [car door closes]
[Jan-Olof] Follow me.
- [door closes]
- [August] Your Majesty.
[Queen] Be seated.
[August] Forgive me.
I have ruined everything.
- I'm ashamed. And
- Could you stop?
I was very close to your father
before he descended into addiction
and disappeared from us.
It can't have been easy for you.
[inhales deeply]
But that doesn't justify your actions.
What you have done to Wilhelm
and the royal family is unforgivable.
I'll get straight to it.
Wilhelm's behavior this last period
has worried the Royal Court to the point
where we feel a slight need
to have a backup plan.
If, and only if, Wilhelm can't stand
the pressure to take over the throne
[inhales] that, uh,
backup plan would be you.
Me?
That means that you will have to
rearrange your future.
You have to prepare yourself to step in
if Wilhelm can't.
- [glass clinking]
- [water pouring]
Needless to say,
I trust that this will stay between us.
Of course.
I don't know what to say. I
I'm so grateful that the Queen
wants to give me this chance.
Well, you should know,
this wasn't my idea.
No.
I will always stand by my son
and put him first.
But it is what it is.
You're next in line of succession.
You will receive the script
for the anniversary speech.
You will practice it to perfection
in case Wilhelm can't go through with it.
[August] The Queen will see
that I deserve a second chance.
[inhales deeply]
I won't disappoint you.
[exhales]
[clattering and indistinct shouting on TV]
[giggling]
[chuckles]
Wanna watch something else?
[sighs] Can't you just hold me?
Of course.
[Felice inhales deeply, sighs]
[exhales] How long
do I have to feel like this?
[Felice inhales deeply, sighs]
I mean, it will get better,
even if it doesn't feel that way
right now.
[Wilhelm breathes softly]
[soft ambient music plays]
Hey
[Felice] Mm-hmm?
[music continues]
Uh, Wille, hold on.
[slow pulsating ambient music plays]
[door opens]
Wille, come on.
We're gonna prank Spru uh, Sprucewood.
Uh, we were gonna prank Sprucewood.
- As, uh, payback for the match.
- [Felice] Ugh.
[Vincent] Okay, guys, we're leaving.
Who has the eggs? Good.
Uh, sorry.
I-I didn't mean to cockblock anyone or
- Leave.
- [Henry] Yeah, yes. Yes, I'm leaving. Bye.
