Transcript

Daniel: So... uh... Jonas and I are at our very first fashion industry party. But it's weird... I dunno. They have a full bar kind of thing. But, I'm really not trying to drink anymore, 'cause of the whole... you know? (He turns to Jonas) I dunno man, what do you think?

Jonas: (raises a glass of wine) Eh...

Daniel: Uh... yeah.

Jonas: (referencing people across the room) I think that guy is a musician, over there?

Daniel: Over there?

Jonas: Yeah...

Daniel: In the white shirt?

Jonas: Yeah.

Daniel: Cool. Who is he? I wonder.

(Jonas Shrugs)

Daniel: Anyway, I feel really out of place right now. Honestly, I don't know what to do. Maybe I can talk to people. Maybe they'll get on camera.

(Pan to woman with brown hair eating finger food)

(Pan to Jonas, standing alone in a corner of the room with a wine glass)

(Pan to a man talking with thick dark blonde hair. Pan back to Jonas who appears to be staring at the man before looking at the camera)

(Pan to David, whispering in the ear of another woman before she rolls her eyes. He glances in another direction)

(Pan to Jonas who mouths help. Jonas is standing behind Alex)

Alex: I don't hate this.

(Pan to thick dark blonde haired man)

Damien: I think you're sexy... I wasn't...

Jonas: No, no, no, no.

Damien: He's cute!

(Pan to Alex drinking wine, Chocolate brown shirt man enters)

David: Excuse me, excuse me for a moment...

(Pan to Alex and David, who is pushing her into a corner of the room where they start to argue)

David: (Raised voice) I don't know why I'm invited here. He's 19 years old for Christ sake!

Alex: Will you keep it down maybe?

Alex: You know what, I... I--

(Throws wine in David's face and walks away)

Daniel: Are you ok?...Hey.

Daniel: Dude, this sucks. Take the camera, everybody freakin' hates me.

Jonas: Nobody hates you, man.

Daniel: Dude, I, I keep gettin'...

Toby: How you doin', man?

Jonas: What's up, dude?

Toby: It's good to see you.

Jonas: Yeah, you too. This is Toby. Toby, David.

Toby: We've met (?)

Beth: Jonas, I'm Beth. Pleasure to meet you.

Toby: Oh! Actually, she's a reporter.

Jonas: Well it's nice to meet you, Beth.

Beth: It's nice to meet you too.

Daniel: I'll be back. (He walks over to Alex.)

Jonas: I saw this girl, she was posting videos, and my heart kinda went out to them. It's a long story. It's complicated.

Toby: Look, I should let you catch up with everybody. Really good to see you.

Jonas: Yeah. You too, man.

(Cut to Jonas, now alone by a mirror.)

Jonas: Dude, I'm really annoyed right now. He's totally hitting on my aunt. (The camera cuts away to Daniel and Alex, talking, dancing, and flirting.) I know they're just friends and all, but... that's my aunt, man, it's family! It's weird. And if they start hooking up it's going to be weird around the house. (The camera cuts back to Jonas.) And she's kinda like that too, actually. I was using her computer and she left this page open, it was some dating website. It said that she was into younger guys. I think I'm going to throw up.

Jonas: No, it's cool, it's... (He swallows.) It went back down.

(The camera pans across various people in the room.)

(Jonas picks up a piece of food and eats it.)

Jonas: Mmmm... That's good.

Carla: Joseph. Joseph!

Jonas: It's actually Jonas.

Carla: Oh. Jonas. (She waves her hand, as if brushing away the error.) I'm sorry.

Jonas: It's okay, we just met.

Carla: You are adorable, adorable. (She takes a sip of wine.)

Jonas: Oh, thank you.

Carla: If you don't mind. No, I'm not going to ask, I don't want to know.

Jonas: I'm nineteen.

Carla: You're nineteen... So I'm going to give you my room key, I've got two room keys, and I want you to tell your aunt...

Jonas: My friend, Daniel, I've got... But, do you have a friend, that's not my aunt, that maybe he could...

Will: Hey Jonas, some guy is here looking for you.

(Carla sort of half-kisses Jonas.)

Jonas: (looks at the camera and mouths) Oh my God!

(The camera pans across various people in the room.)

Jonas: So it looks like the good food's gone and...

(The camera pans across various people in the room.)

Jonas: Hey! Daniel! Ummm... I think we need to go.

Daniel: No.

Alex: Why?

Jonas: I think, no, uh... none of that, please.

Alex: You don't need to go, why do you...

Jonas: Yeah... (He slaps Daniel on the face, gently.)

Alex: Well, I have some business to take care of.

Jonas: So we're going to leave.

Carl: Hey, hey, hey, what's up man? You all right?

Daniel: Yeah.

Carl: Okay, good. Yeah, I'm great, I was just wondering, ummm... (the camera cuts away for a moment.)

Jonas: Bro, I think you've got some issues.

Carl: No, man, it's just--

(The camera cuts to Alex's face.)

Alex: All right, enough, enough.

Carl: No, it's cool man, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine it's fine.

Daniel: Listen to me.

Alex: Jonas, let's go, let's go.

Daniel: What are you talking about?

Carl: Do you want to talk about this outside?

Alex: We'll talk about this later! (yelling) All right, enough, that's my nephew!

Daniel: I'm leaving.

Jonas: Just chill.

Carl: Hey Daniel, can--

Jonas: Daniel!

Daniel: Here, have your-- (He hands Alex his wine glass.)

Alex: Goodbye, goodbye--

Carl: Hey, come back inside.

Daniel: Yeah, yeah...

(The camera cuts away to Daniel and Jonas standing outside on the curb. They have obviously called a cab.)

Jonas: That’s a Mustang.

Daniel: You know what, I’m glad it’s not a taxi. We need to go back in there. Shouldn’t have even had us leave.

Jonas: I know.

Daniel: Life of the party, right? High five for that, you know it’s true, don’t worry, I got you. There’s a taxi. (He whistles.)

Jonas: And... not a cab. Nope, wrong.

Daniel: You know, you know what’d be really cool? If things work out between her and me...

Jonas: Daniel... Daniel.

Daniel: Just, just let me finish! If things worked out, I would be this fine young gentleman’s uncle.

Jonas: Oh my God, man. Get off my shoulder. If you hook up with my aunt, I will bury both of you. No no, off the jacket.

Daniel: Think about it, think about it. It would be fun.

Jonas: It would not be fun, Daniel! That would not be fun.

Daniel: No, it wouldn’t be fun being buried, it would be fun being your uncle. Because... Was that a cab, too?

Jonas: That is not a cab.

Daniel: Because... I could tell you what to do because... that’s I’m your uncle.

Jonas: Shovels, boxes, if all that sounds good to you man, just keep on going down this road. Just keep saying it. I don’t think this cab’s ever coming, man.

Daniel: That’s because he sucks.

Jonas: Sure does.

Daniel: Let’s go back in and hang out with your aunt. She’s nice.

Jonas: Dan... Daniel. I’m going to ask you something. Did you... did you make out with my aunt? Did you? Because that’s crossing the line.

Daniel: Oh look, there... there’s the cab.

Jonas: Daniel… Daniel. Look at me. Look! Daniel, right here! Daniel!

Daniel: (looking away) Yeah?

Jonas: Dude, did you? ‘Cause if you did…

Daniel: Did... what?

Jonas: I hate you.

• Some fans have noticed that there is a picture in the room that features a blonde woman wearing sunglasses, and have speculated that this might be Lucy. A freeze frame of the picture can be seen here.
• This is the longest video to date.
