Long time listener from Spring Lake, North Carolina.
It's 2:13 in the morning here
and I have insomnia.
I quit drinking just before the pandemic
and I really wish I hadn’t just quit
drinking before the pandemic.
I'm a nurse working different shifts throughout the week...
sometimes very late.
Antonio from West Hollywood.
Here just laying in my bed with my cat.
I'm drinking like there's no tomorrow...
because maybe there is no tomorrow.
I don't know if I have COVID or
If I’m just stupid allergic to this cake.
My dog keeps sitting on my hand.
I’m currently walking in circles around my living room.
It’s 3 a.m in Memphis, Tennessee...
lying wide awake, thinking about my mother who just passed away.
I'd love to fall asleep, but I can't.
Not while I feel this alone and scared.
My house is beginning to smell like a giant ashtray.
Hi, I'm Denny, and I have insomnia, so I’ve just started drawing.
Sometimes all I can hear is the clock ticking.
I don't know what's real anymore.
I don't know what's true anymore.
I don't understand what's happening. I'm scared.
Everything is keeping me up, going outside, getting my mail, breathing.
And that was some of our calls from last night.
140 in total.
I'm Rebecca, your host, at ‘Yesterday's Experience Today, ’
where we deliver straight talk on everything from life, money,
politics and of course Covid.
Hi, Tina.
Is everything okay?
Uh huh.
Are you at work?
Yeah, just taking a smoke break.
Do you have enough time to come and see Sarah?
She needs her mama love.
Not yet.
How is she?
Adorable.
Learning to blow raspberries.
Could you get her on the phone for a moment?
Sure.
But, you know she's sleeping.
Oh, never mind, then.
...The big game changer would be vaccines.
Go to your computer and don’t hang up.
If you do, I won't call back and you will go to jail.
On it.
Okay. I'm at my computer.
Go to savemore.com.
Really? Savemore the store?
Yes. The IRS has a contractual agreement
with Savemore to provide this payment service.
Oh, I see.
Yeah, that makes sense.
You're there yet?
You must hurry.
Please... I'm a slow typist.
S... A...
M... O...
No...
No.
No...
God, no.
Swipe right if you like bad boys...
Because I'm bad at everything.
I rock a mullet on the weekends.
Ugh no.
A wolf looking for his lamb?
No.
Sorina, come see her for yourself.
I can't. Not yet.
You're at high risk.
I see.
Well, thanks for being so considerate.
You kidding?
Thank you for watching Sarah for me.
Oh, I'm loving it.
But, you know, she needs her mom.
God. I miss you.
Amy... Amy, We're missing you, too.
I hear her music. I don’t see her though.
Amy, are you there?
Hi!
Sorry about that! - There she is!
I've just suffered a Wi-Fi issue. - No worries.
No worries. Why don't you go ahead...
Get us updated on the Gentry project.
Go to gift card section.
Order two cards. Each one for $1,000.
Order the cards. Put yourself as the recipient on both.
Wait, wait...
How do you spell gift card?
What?
I can't remember how to spell gift.
Is there an F after the I or...
Okay...
You're fucking with me.
Quite the vocabulary there.
IRS man.
You piece of shit. Wasting my time.
Wasting your time?
Excuse me, you slimeball scammer.
You piece of shit, how about I go over there...
And beat the shit out of you?
Oh, yeah...
You know what? That would be great!
Give me something to do, please.
I'm going to kidnap you and torture you!
Oh yeah, fuckface.
Don't do me any favors!
Karma will fucking get you and your future bloodline, you piece of shit!
Oh, yeah, fuckface.
Well, neither you nor karma know where I live.
So fuck off!
You live in Culver City!
WRONG.
Wait! Wait! wait!
Hold the elevator!
Nice.
Well, that was really dickish.
Wait a minute...
I know you.
You were the guy swimming at 2 a.m.
On Tuesday night, right? That was you?
You left all those empty beer cans.
HELLO?
You know the rules.
The pool closes at 8.
You woke up my dog.
And when Joey wakes up, I wake up.
Take me God.
He was up all night barking after that.
He already barks all day.
We don't need any help from you.
Tell Joey to stop watching the news.
Works for me.
I mean, have some compassion.
Oh, my God...
You're a paramedic?
Not lately.
God help us all.
Dick!
Expired?
2015.
Oh shit.
Amy. Hi.
Morning, love. What are you up to?
Just getting out of work.
Just getting out. It's almost 12.
It was an early morning shift.
Are you okay?
You sound a bit down in the dumps.
Maybe a bit.
Sorry to bother you, mam.
Could I bother you for some change?
I’m sorry.
I'm literally carrying nothing.
Nothing?
I have nothing.
I'm sorry.
Bye.
What could be troubling you in this marvelous world?
I guess I’m not too bad, considering.
Are you okay?
You sound happy.
Well, I baked a cake for breakfast.
What was the occasion?
I wanted cake.
Don’t judge me, bitch.
Never! I just... I haven't eaten yet.
So... you're giving me ideas.
Well save your appetite.
I was cleaning out my cabinets and you will never guess what I found.
Girl Scout cookies.
Guess again.
Gingerbread cookies?
Girl, how are you so thin?
It's LSD.
Whoa.
Seriously?
Yeah.
Eric and I were going to try psychedelics one day,
but he's gone now. So...
So?
So let's do it.
So it belonged to your ex,
and now you want to do it
out of spite.
No, of course not.
I want to get high.
You want to get high?
Not alone, anyhow.
Oh, Amy, I don't know.
Isn't it?
I don't know... Dangerous?
What? No. It's practically mainstream nowadays.
And even legal in some areas.
But what about the hallucinations?
Oh God, I wish.
I could use some of those right now.
But no.
That's not going to be a thing.
I'm a mother.
And I’m approaching 40.
Seriously, we're taking a small dose.
No crazy visions.
Just like good vibes.
Sorina?
I'm thinking, I’m thinking.
Look, you know... I've never done this either,
but the Merlot is not killing
the anxiety like it used to.
I don't know.
Come on.
I need you.
Don't you, like, want to take a trip elsewhere?
A few weeks, Lenny.
Let's hope it's just a few weeks.
Right. Just hear me out.
The scenes that we're going to be shooting...
They don't have to be as complex as the storyboards.
That doesn't matter.
Sure. Yeah, it does.
Look, we can totally come up with a safe system.
Okay? We’d be shut down anyway.
It's not just our production.
It's every production.
So, what you're telling me we can't even try to wing this?
Sorry, pal.
We just have to wait this out.
But I can't wait.
Look, my creditors aren't budging.
Sucks, but sucks for all of us.
Got to go. I'll keep you posted.
Come on, Tom.
I can't keep saying no to you, so...
I'm just going to hang up.
Okay.
Leonard?
Oh aww!
Oh, my God.
I'm so sorry!
Sorina!
Oh, I don't believe it.
Oh, my God.
I'm so sorry about your pizza.
Hey, it happens.
Maybe we can salvage some of it.
Yeah.
It's not a...
You know how I knew it was you?
No one ever calls me Leonard.
Cause I was the only one ever allowed.
Hey, how'd you recognize me with the mask?
Seriously? It’s a chin guard.
Yeah.
Here...
Thanks.
You live here?
No, I'm just...
Well...
And you?
I'm visiting a friend.
So, what have you been up to?
Are you Dr. Sorina now?
Mrs. Sorina?
What happened to you?
You really disappeared after college.
I looked for you all over social media.
Did you?
Yeah. Like a stalker.
In fact, I think if I had found you,
it really would have been stalking.
But I didn’t. So...
Well, I'm not on social media much.
I heard about you though...
Busy film producer.
No, don't change the subject.
What have you been up to?
Did you study podiatry?
You were hell bent about it.
No... Actually, I dropped out of college.
Can I ask why?
Well,
I had a baby
and the father bailed...
And...
Well,
my parents died
in a boating accident.
Oh, my God.
I'm so sorry.
I had no idea.
I always liked them.
And they really liked you.
Hasn't been easy for you.
It's okay.
My friend is offering me some respite today.
Wow...
It has been so long.
I missed you.
I missed you, too.
Anyway, what about you?
I heard you got success right out the gate
producing national commercials and whatnot.
Nah, not national. Well, one was.
Well, it's got to be more lucrative
than the wedding videos you used to do.
Sure. Yeah.
I mean...
Oh, don't be so modest, Mr. Big Shot.
You should be proud of your achievements.
My fucking pizza!
You're the delivery guy, right?
That's my pizza.
I have to apologize...
There was a problem with your pizza.
Problem? Were you using it as a Frisbee?
It's my fault.
No, no, it's not your fault.
Sure it is.
She’s the worst barista on the West cost.
Can’t even handle a coffee.
Sorina, did I say you can bring guests?
You know there's a pandemic going on.
Why is my breakfast drawing a crowd right now?
Your breakfast?
Howdy neighbor.
We don't know each other.
Would you like to?
We go to the same gym. I'm Amy.
How do you do?
Don't ask.
Well, why don’t you guys come in?
I got brownies.
You're all invited.
I don't want brownies. I want pizza.
Well, we don't always get what we want in this life.
No shit.
Wait... Come on, Doc, wait.
I said no thank you.
I rather gnaw on my headboard.
Come on, join us.
Why are you inviting me?
Because it’s always great to have a doctor in the house.
Paramedic.
And I don't know if you can tell, but I really don't like people.
Especially when I'm hungry.
People suck.
They definitely suck.
But I've got drugs.
So do I.
No, I mean like DRUGS.
So do I.
I mean like ACID.
We could use the help of a medical professional.
Come on in.
She's inviting this guy.
Come on, Lenny.
Hi.
You guys planning a toilet paper heist?
Is that what I think it is?
LSD.
Oh.
I guess not.
Lysergic acid diethylamide.
Disconnection. Disengagement.
Disentanglement.
Let's do this.
How pure is this?
Oh very.
Can we measure it out?
Absolutely.
My coworkers gave me a kit.
Fantastic.
Can I get some water and vodka for this?
Vodka?
Helps preserve the LSD better.
Coming right up!
Sorry, but I don't do any type of drugs.
That's okay. Neither do I.
I don't think any of us do.
Well, except for the pro over there.
Pro? No, I'm not a pro.
I did a blotter once in college.
Cool.
Well, I don't. I can't.
I mean, if I even have coffee before noon, I go batshit.
Oh, I miss batshit Lenny.
You're among a minority.
Corona anyone?
Lenny, is it?
If you just man up a little bit,
I'm sure you'll get through this day.
Did you just tell me to man up?
In the sweetest way possible.
I'm sorry. Who are you again?
I'm Dale.
I'm the guy whose pizza you fucked!
Alright you two.
Right. Pizza for breakfast.
Don't appreciate the advice. Didn't ask for it.
Your intention is clearly not to help me.
Well, guess what, Mustache?
I help people every day.
It's what I do. It's my curse.
Then what the hell are you doing here?
That's a really good question.
I’m serious, man.
I mean, the hospitals are filled to the brim.
Why aren't you helping?
I’ve got my reasons.
You’ve got your... What reasons?
I’ve got my reasons. You really want to know?
Yeah Dale.
Because I'm a man of my time.
And right now, the world is...
just unkind.
And I've just reached...
zero fucks level.
I would love you to join me, but you don't have to.
It's nice just having you here.
But you're as clueless about this stuff as I am.
So am I. We all are.
That's why I brought the paramedic.
That’s what I’m worried about.
That dude is clearly a burnout.
Sorina is going to be just fine.
You know, she's my best friend,
and I promise I wouldn't let anything happen to her.
We're going to watch each other's backs.
You’re going to watch each other's backs?
Watch for what exactly?
Lenny, will you be my designated back watcher?
We'll watch each other. You watch me,
I watch you. You two watch each other.
I don't know.
This does not sound like fun at all.
You know, you must be doing alright...
if you can't appreciate
why we’d want this level of escapism right now.
Of course I can.
Lenny.
I intentionally do more laundry than I need to...
like several times per week just to get out of my apartment.
I need this.
Lenny.
We just want to feel alive.
Alright, fine.
Fuck it.
Oh, goody.
What are you doing?
Just writing a little note.
It's a pandemic party now!
I hate this song.
What? - Can we take it off?
No? - I'm heartbroken to hear that.
I love this.
This is volumetric dosing.
We don't have droppers,
but we have shot classes and we just...
So then we...?
You just...
like I'm sure you do every day. So...
And even less for you.
Just a hair.
Bon voyage.
May you never forget what is worth remembering
and may you never remember what it's best forgotten.
Yaay.
Great job.
Well, here we are. Alone at last.
An acid trip with my ex girlfriend.
Not a bad day.
Not a bad day at all.
All right, let's do it together.
Count of three.
One, two.
Lenny!
Sorry.
Guess I jumped the ship a bit early.
Oh okay.
Wow. You really scoffed that down.
I haven't eaten anything in 10 hours.
It's called sleeping.
Oh, was that what I was supposed to do?
Okay.
How long before we feel anything?
Well...
Without googling, I'd say anywhere between now and tomorrow.
Okay, wiseass.
I got to say...
for such a pitiful dose,
I'm already feeling like... something.
Oh, it could be the brownie. It’s spiked with ketamine.
I don’t think so.
Wow.
Dale?
Do you ever laugh?
How we doing over here?
Stellar, Sparky.
Just relax for once in your life.
Dick.
I gave you a small dose.
You guys are just going to feel some euphoria and...
Whoa.
Wow.
Wow. Suddenly warm in here.
How long before we feel something?
Can't you see I'm feeling something?
You guys, I'm not an expert!
Just... Probably very soon.
I'm sorry.
I didn’t mean to yell at you.
No, it’s fine.
Lenny, are you okay?
I don't know.
I think I can hear my heartbeat.
Uh oh. Is this batshit, Lenny?
No. No, I can definitely hear my heartbeat.
Batshit Lenny would say that.
Amy?
I’m ok.
Just very thirsty.
But why are you crawling?
I didn't want to fall over.
Oh.
Shit!
Oh... no.
This doesn't feel good at all.
Well, what is it? What are you feeling?
Like a...
Like anxiety.
Like a bad...
anxiety.
All right, come on over.
Everything's going to be okay. Just come on.
Uh huh.
Sit down, and I'm going to get you some water, all right?
Uh-huh.
Wow.
Microdose my ass.
Uh oh.
Lenny!
Lenny, are you okay?
Oh, my God.
Leave him alone, babe. It’s called Nirvana.
That's not funny. Did he OD?
Of course not.
Wake up, Lenny. Wake up!
What the duck?
Okay, I'm definitely tripping now.
Oh, my God. What's happening?
Dale?
What’s going on?
Please help him.
Dale?
Do something. Please.
Let me see.
Oh that's not good.
I don't know what's going on.
I think I'm fucked up too.
Is he ODing?
We all are.
What?
What are you talking about?
I thought this was a low dose.
I might have made an error.
An error?
It’s not completely my fault.
The thing wasn't calibrated.
Dale, the dose!
Dale?
How big of an error?
Maybe three zeros.
I'm so sorry!
I've been hung over like 24-7!
We need to call an ambulance
Okay.
Like right now.
What the fuck?
Whoa!
What's happening with your phone?
You see it too?
Yeah.
Why the fuck are we seeing the same shit?
Okay.
We just took the biggest dose of LSD on record.
Extreme paranoia is bound to be part of that.
What? What do we do, Dale?
I got to get some air!
Dale!
Guys?
Lenny.
Oh, Lenny.
This is my fault.
I'm so sorry for luring you into this.
Oh, just come back.
Oh my God.
Tina?
Sorina, are you at work?
Tina, what’s wrong?
Is Sarah ok?
I'm concerned about something.
What are you concerned about?
Well there’s a black SUV in the driveway.
Is it yours?
Isn't that your rental?
My rental?
Yeah, you rented it last week.
I rented a vehicle?
I don’t have any recollection of that.
Well you did.
Where’s Fred? Let’s ask him.
Shit.
Tina, your husband passed 3 years ago.
What?
Sorina, that’s not a funny joke.
Tina, listen to me.
I'm coming over.
Everything's going to be okay. All right? Just...
Just lie down in your bed until I get there, okay?
Hello?
Tina! It's me!
Open up!
Tina, open up!
Sorina, why are you here? I thought you were working.
No, I'm not.
Sarah, Baby...
Tina, where is she?
Where is who?
Tina, where is she?
I...
Maybe... I don’t know where my mind is.
What's the date?
It's the 14th.
No, the month?
June.
How can that be?
My birthday was a few weeks ago.
Why can't I remember?
Well you should.
You got quite buzzed during a Zoom party, remember?
Sorry, I don't.
Tina...
I need you to remember where Sarah is.
Who is Sarah?
Sorina, why are you here?
No, I told you already. I'm off!
What's the date?
What?
The date?
What is it?
God! It’s the 14th.
Jesus!
No, the month?
Christ, it's June.
You asked me this already.
How can that be?
My birthday was a few weeks ago.
Why can't I remember?
Tina,
you have to remember. Who has Sarah?
Who is looking after her?
Who is Sarah?
Tina!
Sorina, why are you here? I thought you were working.
Tina, she's my daughter!
Where's Fred?
Maybe he can sort this out.
Oh my god.
What is going on with you?
911, whats your emergency?
Hi, I think my friend has some sort of short term memory loss.
But the real emergency is that she
was supposed to look after my baby and I can't...
Hello?
Hey. Hey.
What a surprise. You're early.
Dad?
Mom?
Sorina?
You okay?
You look a little petrified.
What are you guys doing here?
Well, for one, we live here.
Right. But...
After you guys...
After we what?
Oh, darling.
You okay?
Oh... Come on now.
Hey, how were the finals?
Finals?
Yeah.
Weren’t they this week?
I, I don't know.
Sorina, are you okay?
I'm fine.
Totally fine.
How was she?
She ate like a champ.
Want to hold her?
Oh, no, I can't right now.
Why would I? You're doing such a great job.
Finals are so tough, you don't have a minute to hold a baby.
Oh, no, it's not that.
Just... I've been exposed to COVID. I need to quarantine.
I shouldn't even be here right now.
What's COVID?
You know what?
I don't know.
Are you sure?
COVID.
What a strange word.
Sweetie.
I don't even know what I'm saying.
I can't remember.
Sorina!
Lenny!
Baby?
Where are you going?
Eric?
What the hell is going on here?
It's Monday night.
What do you expect?
What is it? My breath?
No, it's just...
I don't know what's going on.
What, are you angry at me?
Me. Angry. At you?
Yeah, you bet.
Oh, it’s the kids, right?
I know they had us up all night.
What? - I know.
It’s just the lack of sleep has got me cranky, too.
No, rewind. What kids?
Our kids.
Michelle and Liam.
Who else would I be talking about?
We have kids?
Okay...
Stop messing with me.
No, I'm not messing with you.
Okay, fine. What was my birth plan?
Where are these kids?
With the sitter tonight at home.
Yeah...
Uh yeah, it was your... It was your breath.
Yeah.
But you...
You left me.
Didn’t you leave me?
Yeah.
I mean, just to the bathroom.
I mean, was I gone long? Was I? I'm sorry.
Right.
Okay. Um...
Yeah maybe... Maybe it was a dream.
What dream?
A dream in which you left me, and I began using dating apps.
Fucking dating apps.
Interesting.
Well baby love...
I would never, ever, ever, ever leave you.
Right. Yeah.
Why don't we just, like, take our food to go?
Food to go? What? No, You have to do your song.
What?
Okay. Stop playing coy.
You promised the owner you do a song tonight.
That's why we're here. - I promised the owner?
I don't even know the owner. Why would I promise someone to sing?
I only did a little musical theater in college.
I'm not even good.
Stop playing humble now. Come on.
Just get up there and show them the musical superstar you are.
Come on.
No, I'm not. I'm not getting up there.
Why? You have that song prepared.
You get up there! - Go! I’m not getting up there.
You’re the singer. Go! - Go up there! Go up there!
♪ It must have been something ♪
♪ lovers call fate ♪
♪ Got me saying ♪
♪ I have to wait ♪
♪ I've seen them all ♪
♪ Just couldn’t fall until we met ♪
♪ It had to be you ♪
This is really bad.
I suck. You know what.
Got to go.
Really?
Yeah It was like we each had this six foot forcefield around ourselves,
and every time we got too close to someone else's forcefield,
we would just sort of bounce off.
Wow.
And what was the point of the six feet again?
Yeah.
It's like the distance a spit can travel or something.
Wow.
You should read a book about this COVID dream.
Yes... It was so vivid.
Lucid.
Sounds like it. - Very lucid.
Sorina, would you like to take over?
Why would I?
You're doing so well.
That's true. You really are.
Now maybe you should feed me next.
I don't think you have any problems in that arena.
Hey, now that's just because you're
such a great cook, my love.
All right, Grandpa is going to take over.
Yes he is. Hi.
Sorina...
Sorina, stop ignoring me.
Sorina, can you hear me?
She can’t hear me.
Sorina! Hi. I need to talk to you.
It’s Lenny!
It's Lenny.
He’s in the TV.
Lenny?
Yeah. He...
He was.
You mean like... He was acting in something?
No, no. He...
Never mind.
I'm seeing things.
Never mind. It's been a long day.
Hey, it's okay.
Yeah. He’d never act anything.
He's more of a behind the camera guy. Although nowadays
he's delivering pizza.
Nowadays?
Lenny, what are you talking about?
What?
Sorina.
Lenny isn't with us.
Yeah, I know.
He's not like here, here. But...
Sweetie, he passed away.
Are you okay?
Don’t you remember?
He died.
Died from what?
It was a boating accident.
What are you grinning at?
You.
You look fetching.
Oh, do I?
Yes, you do.
Go fetch.
Whoa!
What the hell was that?
What was what?
That sound you just made. What was that?
You mean my sneeze?
Right?
I remember that.
I didn't realize how much it sounded like a wounded dingo.
Hey. Ouch.
No, more like a pack of hyenas being mauled by tigers.
What's wrong?
The picture.
What about it?
There is none.
Okay, well, we can get a picture.
This doesn't have a picture either.
We can take care of that.
- Just first world problems. - You don’t think that’s weird?
Yeah, most definitely it is. But...
Why did I not recognize this?
Well I'm glad we both agree... this is your fault.
Um. What?
Okay.
Oh oh... okay...
What's going on? What is going on?
What's going on. My God.
Oh my God. Oh my God.
It’s not real. This is not your life.
That’s not your boyfriend.
You have to get up. You have to wake up.
You have to get back to Sorina and Lenny and...
Dale. Even Dale. Oh, my God.
Just got to get up. Wake up.
You got this.
Just. Just close your eyes.
Click your heels.
Just wake up! Just wake the fuck up, Amy!
Just get up. Wake up. Okay.
One, two, three.
Wake up!
I won't. I won't drink anymore.
Maybe a little.
Just a little.
Ok, I won't drink. Just wake up.
Wake up... Wake up.
Dale?
Hon, try not to cut my ear off.
Oh, don't be such a baby.
You're nicking me. - Really?
Yeah, you're like the Barber of Seville.
I told you I don’t know what I’m doing.
I know. And that’s why
I was totally prepared for a bad haircut.
Not be physically scarred in the process.
Okay, well...
I'm done. That's good enough.
Oh goody. I can't wait for a mirror.
What the hell are you doing here?
Me? What about you?
This is my Airbnb.
Who's that woman you were talking to?
That woman? That's Melanie.
Your hairstylist?
Ha!
She's not a hair stylist.
She's more of a sadist.
Stop.
She's my dear wife.
Your wife?
But... You...
But me what?
Never mind.
Hey, babe, can you pick up some orange juice?
Sure, hon. It’ll be easy.
I meant from the market.
Just as easy, hon. It weighs the same there.
What do you think of my hair? Did she do a good job?
Hey, I barely touched it.
She's lying. What do you think?
Dale, listen to me.
Are you real... or just another character?
Like a figment of my mind.
What the hell are you talking about?
Well do you remember how you got here?
Dale, do you remember?
The ayahuasca, right?
We did it in your apartment. That's where you're getting it.
It was LSD.
LSD. That's why I said. I remember.
And then...
Yeah, I was getting a haircut.
You don’t find any of that odd?
Which part? The LSD?
Or the haircut? - Which part?
How about the whole thing?
I’ve heard of stranger things.
Dale, I don't think any of this is real.
So you think we're sharing the same dream?
That makes more sense to you?
Remember?
We were seeing the same things when this whole thing started.
You said it yourself. The largest dose on record.
Preposterous.
Whatever. I can’t explain it.
Well when you can, let me know.
She's waiting for me.
Dale!
I'm sorry, Sorina.
I'm coming for you.
I appreciate that.
That's sweet of you. Well,
I guess you know, if you're
going to mess things up as a parent, then
just don't let your kids know.
Oh.
Yes.
Now I want to know how much you messed up.
Do you really, though?
I guess.
I don't know. Part of me does.
You just seem like the perfect mother with no learning curve.
Oh, that's sweet of you.
It really only seemed that way.
I mean, until the age of four, you barely had a memory.
And before that, the curve, it was... It was a steep one.
Yeah, I guess that's true.
When um...
I used to have you play that game... Where I would go and
hide your dolls all over the house, and you'd have to go find them.
Yes, we did that, like, every week.
We did that every week. - It was fun.
Yeah, It was fun.
I forgot about that.
Well, while you were running around the house
having a blast, looking for them everywhere,
I was pouring myself a glass of wine.
You? - I know!
I was just like, having a little moment for myself, you know?
It was needed.
Sweetheart.
Hey, baby, What's wrong?
What's going on?
Are you still having those nightmares?
It’s just... the last one.
I'm having trouble
shaking off the effects.
Okay.
Can you tell me more about that?
The whole thing was...
just terrible.
It wasn't
just a pandemic.
I mean, that was bad enough, but
it was a world where,
you know, you and Dad weren't here anymore.
Oh, baby.
And, you know, I had no one
to help me with Sarah. So...
I had to leave school
and raise her on my own.
Gosh, that sounds like a terrible dream.
But it was just a dream.
Your father and I are here, and we are not going anywhere.
Okay? I promise.
Who’s Sarah?
Hmm?
You mentioned a Sarah.
My daughter Sarah.
Wait? What are you telling me?
My daughter.
You were feeding her yesterday.
You mean Becca, the baby in the bassinet?
That's our neighbor’s. We’re just watching her.
Why are you telling me about a daughter?
Are you pregnant or something?
Excuse me. I just have to go to the loo.
Leonard!
I know what you're going to say.
Yes, I do realize I'm in the women's bathroom.
Leonard.
It was an honest mistake.
I swear to God, I think I took a wrong turn somewhere.
Leonard, Lenny, I want to hug you, but I...
Yeah, I wish I could hug you too.
It's nice to see you. And be seen.
Lenny.
I am so grateful that you're alive.
I thought that you had died or something.
Me dead? Never.
Actually maybe not never, never.
You overdosed on the LSD.
I remember.
I couldn't wake you.
I'm awake all right. Very awake.
The question is, are you?
Why does everyone think you're dead?
Really? It's funny.
I don't know. Hearing about it for the first time now.
Seriously. My parents, my friends.
That's ridiculous.
If I was dead, how could I possibly do this?
Do what?
Oh my God.
Where are we?
Well, I don't know.
Wasn't entirely me. Your subconscious had a part.
Okay.
This is not helping me believe that you're still alive.
In fact, now I'm not sure that I am either.
Oh come on, Sorina.
When we were together, all you ever talked about
was how much you wanted to travel.
Lenny, why are we here?
Why are you here?
I like you.
I feel like we never got a good parting.
You know, we went to separate colleges.
We didn't get to say goodbye as much as I would have liked.
And now we're back in each other's lives.
It’s got to mean something.
I've thought a lot about you too, Lenny.
I'm really glad you're back.
But it's just that...
You're...
I'm what?
I'm dead?
Yeah, that's what they're saying.
Well, they're hurting my feelings.
I am alive, I swear.
And you're the only one that needs to believe it.
You just need to see for yourself.
Okay? How?
I just need you to do a favor for me.
I need you to wake up for me.
Wake up?
Oh, thank God.
Sorina, what's wrong?
Nothing.
Happy to see you.
Good to see you too, sweetie. - What are you doing?
Oh, you know, just watching these tiky toky videos.
Oh, that's too bad.
I was hoping I dreamt that app.
Mom, how long are we looking after Becca?
She's being picked up tonight.
I see.
And Lenny...
He's still with us?
Lenny? What do you mean?
I just had this really weird dream in my car where he was dead.
But... he did die.
Don't you remember?
Let me guess. Boating accident?
But that can’t be. That just doesn’t make any sense.
Why were you sleeping in your car?
That’s because I...
Oh my god. I don’t remember.
I'm starting to worry about you.
I think maybe we should call a doctor.
Yes please.
You don't care if I'm lying down, right?
I mean, that's how it usually is on TV.
Whatever makes you comfortable.
Yeah, This does for sure. Especially with this pillow.
Thank you.
So, what's the go to drug
for psychotic breakdowns nowadays?
Do you think you're having a psychotic breakdown?
Probably not.
Maybe more of a mental breakdown of sorts.
I just figured if we're going to treat this thing,
we might as well go all the way.
Don't you think we should chat more before we start talking about drugs?
No. All in or nothing.
Besides, don't you usually get paid more when you promote a pill?
I'm a buyer.
Let's get this show on the road.
Now, that's not...
Okay, I am done being introspective.
All I do all day is introspect.
My brain hurts.
What is, as you put it, making your brain hurt?
Well, let's take yesterday, shall we?
I spent the entire day staring at a wall,
reminiscing about a dream I had in which my parents were dead.
I was raising a daughter during a vicious pandemic,
and our president was a reality TV star.
That is interesting.
And it gets even more upsetting when my dead ex decides to pop in.
Okay. Let’s talk about this dead ex.
Would you say he's handsome?
He's not too bad, I guess.
Not too bad.
What the hell?
I thought I’d never get your attention.
I've been trying to break through for hours.
So I'm still dreaming?
What the hell?
What the fucking hell?
It's okay, I can help you out of this.
Did I hear you wanted pills?
Well, I got you pills.
So... you can take the blue pill
and see just how far down the rabbit hole goes
or you can take the red pill and stay in la la land.
Wait...
Shhh...
Was that supposed to be the blue pill?
I think I mixed them up. Shoot!
Is it red for waking and blue for dreaming?
This would be so much simpler if I understood the significance
of the colors.
It's like red is way more threatening,
when waking up should really be a pleasant experience.
I guess it depends on who you're waking up next to.
Am I right?
Also the quality of your coffee.
Oh my God.
What?
Lenny, I'm seeing things.
I know.
I'm seeing it too.
Just wake up.
Just wake up? Lenny, how?
I don't know. I can't do it for you.
Let's take a walk.
A walk?
Yes, let's take a walk.
I don't want to go anywhere.
That's cool.
We can stay here.
But I believe you're becoming unglued.
It's okay. This will all stop.
But you...
Oh my god! If you tell me to wake up
one more time, I swear I’m going to lose it!
I was going to say calm down.
This will all stop if you calm yourself.
Calm? Calm?
How?
Do you want to dance?
What?
Where are we?
I don't know.
Patagonia. Serengeti.
Orange County, California.
Dancing always seemed to put you at ease.
Okay, Lenny, I don't know how to say this, but
you were always a terrible dancer.
Sounds like you knew exactly how to say that.
Sorina...
Do you still miss me?
At the moment...
No.
Okay, Lenny, it's time to go.
Take me back.
You can go wherever you like. It’s your world. Your rules.
My rules?
If it really was my rules, I'd be in Barcelona right now.
I should clarify.
It’s more the rules of your subconscious.
I thought you were my subconscious.
Because I'd like to be back with my family.
I’m not your subconscious.
Then what are you?
Besides a pain in my neck.
I'm not sure.
Lenny.
I need to be with my family.
Sorina, you have a family...
waiting for you on the other side.
No, this is my family!
Sorina. - Lenny, stop!
Just stop.
This is my real family.
Who are you talking about? You?
You were just a high school sweetheart.
Nothing more.
Listen Lenny, I...
Sorina, I’m talking about your daughter.
I don't have a daughter.
Sorina.
But I have a mother and a father,
and I love them very much!
Sorina, don’t see you what’s happening here?
The longer you stay here,
the more you forget about your real life.
Leave me alone!
Sorina, don't let this place consume you.
I'm sorry?
Are you okay?
Lenny?
Uh...
I'm sorry.
Sorina.
Sorina, you got to wake up.
Sorina.
Sorina, come on, you've got to wake up.
I don't know what to do.
Sorina, come on.
Sorina, listen.
Come on.
Sorina, you have to wake up.
What I wouldn’t do for an escalator right now.
I take it you’re not a hiker.
Depends.
Okay, I’ll bite. Depends on what?
If there’s a McDonald’s at the end of the trail.
What is that sound?
What sound?
That ring.
You mean my bell?
Yes!
Oh. I bought this at a store.
Figured that.
I asked the store owner for one of those tinkle bells
that they wear in a bear country.
We’re in bear country?
Apparently, it helps warn the bears that humans are coming.
So they don’t get surprised and attack us.
You’re alerting bears to our existence
and that’s a good thing?
Why are you nervous?
You didn’t even think this was real. Remember?
I’m hoping now.
Both of you can easily outrun me.
Hey, hey, hey...
Hey, what’d you do that for?
Do you hear that?
What?
Now that your bell shut up, we can hear the music.
What music?
You mean the nature?
No.
It played on my playlist earlier. You don't hear that?
Hmm. No.
If there's anything that I hate
more than other people, it’s other people's music.
And now I think you're crazy.
Okay, well, I know I'm crazy, but not about this.
Where's Melanie?
I can’t believe I just lost her.
Dale, this isn’t real!
We have to get out of here!
This isn’t real! - Okay! Okay!
No stop! Why aren’t you getting this?
All right! All right! I’m getting whiplash here!
All right.
You know, you seem out of breath.
Breathing in that imaginary air.
Maybe my lungs don’t understand what my mind does.
Listen,
there's a theory that reality is relational, right?
It's something like,
universe isn't a God's eye view.
It's more like mirrors of mirrors.
You know, like everything in the universe
is dependent on its relation to the state of everything else.
Like, basically time and space.
Those mountains. Those trees. They're real to us...
because we observe it to be real.
Horseshit! Look!
For fuck's sake, there's a whale swimming in the sky!
Okay,
isn't there always whales
flying in the sky?
Honestly, I can't remember.
Maybe.
Okay.
What is it?
It's just my coworkers
from the hospital.
They need you?
Yeah, they're getting swamped with patients.
So... why aren’t you there?
Where's Melanie?
Seriously, I don't know how the hell we lost her.
I don't know. She's a better hiker than us.
You know, maybe she got bored.
Just do me a favor.
Just stop distracting me, okay?
Melanie!
There she is!
Welcome back.
I'm so sorry about last time.
I don't know what's happening.
That’s okay.
We're starting over.
I'm in so much pain.
My head hurts.
Do you need an aspirin?
Again
So sorry, Dr. Harris.
My name is Abby.
You can call me Abby.
So many of my patients come to me after a loss,
to mourn, to make sense of it.
Your parents told me someone close to you died?
Yes.
We all grieve in different ways.
Sometimes even imagining a world where they still live.
Yeah.
Sometimes this can only be realized when we're still.
Then our senses can help us really understand.
I'm still.
Are you unhappy?
Yes.
Well, in my dream, I was.
Why would I imagine a world where I'm so unhappy?
Right.
Well, you were unhappy because of all the death.
Yes.
The pandemic.
The loss of your job?
Yes.
Being a mother.
A mother?
Yes.
Right.
But I actually loved being a mother.
In fact, that was the best part of it.
Then why were you unhappy?
I was miserable that I couldn't be more for her.
She needed a good mother.
I was not.
Why would you say that?
What happened?
Because I almost abandoned her.
I was low.
Very low.
I was so tired.
I hadn't slept much in days.
And I finally just blacked out.
And I just stared and stared.
Part of me hoping
that someone would come and take her away.
A small part,
but enough to scare me now.
Eventually, a stranger came by and told me to snap out of it.
But not before a
car came speeding through and almost hit her.
I’m just terrible.
I'm a terrible person
and I deserve the worst of whatever comes my way.
That isn't true.
Yes, it is.
Even before then,
I would imagine letting her go.
I love my daughter.
Of course I do.
But I would still let her go every time.
And now I really did give her away.
Sorina.
It is possible to move on.
Move on?
Yes.
You mean...
move on from my daughter?
Yes.
As much comfort as she's given you in your dreams,
you have to forget about her.
Try this.
Imagine she's on an island
you can always swim to.
But I don’t want to forget about her.
Excuse me.
Mom.
Dad.
Shit.
Where’s Sarah?
Where’s my baby?
Stop it!
Sarah.
Sarah baby?
Hi Mama! What's up?
What's wrong?
Where’s Sarah?
Tina...
what are you doing? Hand her over.
No, I won’t.
Tina, give me back my baby.
No, I’m not giving her back.
Tina dammit!
Give her back to me!
No, I won’t!
Lenny, where are you?
I’m still dreaming.
Wake up! Sorina, wake up!
Melanie!
I basically write code in a cave.
Doesn’t matter if it’s an apartment or an office,
it’s still a cave.
It must be tough.
I know, I know.
I have a great job and I'm very grateful.
Melanie!
What’s wrong?
Nothing I’m just...
The programs I write today are just often replacing programs
someone else wrote years ago.
Pretty soon someone else will be replacing the programs I've written.
Probably AI.
I start every day at zero and build to a 10.
Then back to zero the next day.
I never really create anything.
Nothing with value from one day to the next.
Amy, If you don't love what you do, just find something else.
No do-overs.
Not in real life.
Once you’re making a living, start paying the bills,
the never ending student loans, it’s over.
You’re trapped for life.
Maybe it’s not my job.
Maybe it’s because I’m looking at 40 and alone.
I remember at the beginning of this big bad virus
being so happy
cause at least I had a boyfriend.
And he turned out to be a total a-hole.
I can’t anymore.
Just please.
What?
Just...
Please, no more. Just.
I can't hear anymore.
Just can't.
You know what?
You’re an asshole too.
Why are you an asshole?
I am an asshole!
But you know...
Your problems...
A couple of years ago they’d seem really big to me too.
But right now, they’re just a tad small.
Really?
Yeah.
I mean...
You hate your job?
Quit.
I’m sure you have savings.
You’re feeling lonely?
We all feel lonely.
Okay?
Get in line.
This pandemic, I assure you,
is not going to be around forever.
It’s temporary.
But do you know
what’s not temporary?
What’s forever?
My wife being dead.
She’s gone forever.
That’s it.
I’m sorry.
I didn’t know about your wife.
When she was alive, she saved me like everyday.
And now that she’s gone...
I’m just feeling so fucking lost.
I mean I’m so lost...
that I’m literally chasing her through my mind.
So then you agree?
That this isn’t real?
Yes. Yes.
Yes... It’s not real.
Just tell me how to get out of this place.
How the hell do we get out of here?
I don’t know.
I’ve been following you the whole time.
Well then that’s the worst decision you’ve made yet.
Okay. How long do the effects of an LSD overdose last?
A 1000 years here...
could be the amount of time it takes to eat a pretzel out there.
Oh I don’t think we’re going to last that long here.
We mind as well.
Denial is not just a river in Egypt, Dale.
Guys?
Hello?
Amy?
Lenny?
Hello?
Did we lose her again?
No.
She’s in there.
This is the front door to my apartment.
How do you know?
Where did that come from?
This is the day.
What day?
I wanted to bring Melanie some flowers. And uh...
All the stores were closed, because of the quarantine. And I...
I ripped these out of someone’s front yard...
and just ran off.
How romantic.
Nah...
I wasn’t able to give them.
I was coming home
from a shift at the hospital.
And when I opened this door,
I discover her body.
Melanie contracted the virus early on...
and it got bad. Like really bad.
And I was supposed to take care of her.
And I wanted to take care of her.
But at the height of the surge...
Instead, I traded my wife’s life
for the lives of a bunch of selfish strangers.
Do you know what that’s like?
To just...
This time
when I open this door
she’s going to be alive.
This time I’ll do it right.
She’ll be alive.
I’m going to nurture her to health.
And not these self-centered, thankless strangers.
Nothing here matters if it’s a dream, Dale.
Seriously, Amy? What? What’s a dream?
I mean if it lasts,
and it feels real, then...
guess what?
It’s real enough for me.
Lenny!
Lenny! Can you hear me?
Dale?
Just let me be, Amy. Just go!
Dale!
It’s enough! Please just...
Go!
Dale.
Amy, just!
Melanie?
I’m here, Dale.
Sorina, listen. Sorina...
Wake up.
Sorina, wake up!
Melanie.
It's okay, baby.
It's okay.
You know what to do.
You have to go back.
Why? Because this is...
This is some kind of psychedelic dream world, right?
And you're not real.
Yes. This world is not yours.
But I'm real.
Lenny!
Lenny, please help me! I can’t wake up!
What? What do you mean?
I'm real.
But...
How?
I'm here,
but I mean, I'm also elsewhere.
And when you go home, I'm going to go home.
I’ll take a shower, eat dinner, go to sleep and...
do it all over again.
Then I’ll live with whatever...
version of Melanie you are.
You can't.
Why not?
I can’t lose you again.
You won’t.
You never really did.
Stay.
Just let me stay.
Whatever this is.
You can't stay.
Open your eyes.
No!
I'll see you soon.
No, no! Where you...
Jesus!
Damn it! Fucking.
Oh my god. Dale.
Dale.
Oh god.
I’m fine.
I'm fine.
I'm fine. Where the hell are we?
I don't know.
We just conked out here.
Okay.
All right.
Hi.
What the?
I'm hungry.
Here.
I mean the guy uses a spoon to eat spaghetti.
Wow. Funny.
No, it’s not. It’s stressful.
Besides that, he was just always an asshole to me.
And I never realized that until now.
So why were you with Lou for so long?
It’s Eric.
That’s what I said. Eric.
I don’t know. I think I was looking for
someone I can tolerate, and eventually pay bills with together.
He was also really good at fellatio.
Oh my god. Dale!
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Hold on, hold on.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Hi. Yes?
Can you send someone, please? My friend is choking!
I don’t know! We’re at like at a parking lot...
Hey, hey! You ok? You okay?
Breathe! Breathe!
Dale?
Oh my god.
You okay, buddy?
How did you know how to do that?
I used to be a medic.
Wow.
You okay?
Got to go, okay? Be careful.
Bye.
Thanks.
Please just take me back.
Please God!
I need her!
I need my baby!
Please!
Please.
Sorina.
Oh my God.
Lenny, is that really you?
Yeah. Yeah, it's me.
Where am I?
We're still in Amy's apartment.
Oh my God.
Hello sleepy head.
Amy.
The one and only.
You really left us there for a minute.
Here, babe. Drink this.
Thank you.
So many strange things.
So crazy.
I missed you guys.
It's great to see your faces.
Crazy is definitely the word of the hour.
I think we can all agree on that.
Definitely crazy.
I missed you guys.
We missed you.
Lenny here, talked to you the whole time.
Literally wouldn't shut up.
I thought if you heard a familiar voice,
might keep you from getting lost.
It was worth a try.
Yeah, Lenny, it was.
It was.
And Sarah?
My Sarah.
I missed my baby so much.
Who's Sarah?
Amy... You know Sarah.
Your baby?
You have a baby?
Yes. Sarah.
Sarah, my daughter.
Oh, babe.
But you don't have a daughter.
If she's becoming delusional,
we should probably call the hospital.
But you don't have a daughter.
Oh my God!
Sorina, it's okay. It's okay.
Where’s Sarah?
Sorina, babe. You told me she's being looked after.
Yes. She is.
She is.
Sorina, where are you going?
To get my daughter.
Sorina.
Wonderful to see...
Hi.
Hi Sarah.
Oh I missed you.
Hi, honey.
Hi, sweetie.
