IF IT MAKES YOU FEEL

THANK YOU FOR
YOUR COMMENT, SIR.
OH, SORRY--
LUCKY NUMBER 113.
THIS IS OUR BEAUTIFUL
HOTEL ROOM.
AS YOU CAN SEE,
RICH HAS BEEN UP TO
HIS USUAL DECORATING HABITS.
THAT'S OUR DELICIOUS
ORANGE-RED-BROWN 1970S DECOR.

WOULDN'T YOU SAY?
CARE TO COMMENT?

UNLESS YOU HAVE
A PROBLEM WITH THAT?

[THUMPS CAN ON TABLE]
[POLICE SIRENS WAIL]
[FABRIC RUSTLING]
OKAY, BUDDY,

YOUR HOME MOVIES.
SORRY.
[SIMON]:

WHAT'S THE DEAL?
IT'S THE GUY,
THE CLERK.

MARIO WOULD KILL US.
LOOK, PEOPLE DIE

IT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS.
LET'S JUST GET SOME SLEEP.

ALWAYS SING TO ME.
DO YOU MISS HER?
YEAH.
WE USED TO TAKE
TRIPS LIKE THIS
ALL THE TIME
WHEN MY DAD WAS AWAY.
DRIVING UP AND DOWN
THE COAST,
VISITING FAMILY.
THOSE WERE SOME OF
THE FUNNEST TIMES
WHEN I WAS A KID.
[CAMERA THUDS ONTO TABLE]
LOOK...
EVA, I'M SORRY
ABOUT LAST NIGHT.
THAT'S OKAY.
I WAS JUST--
SHH...

I KNOW.
I'M SORRY.
WHY DON'T WE MAKE SIMON

HUH?
I DON'T THINK SO.
COME ON.
[GROANS APPREHENSIVELY
AND CHUCKLES]
HEY, YOU SHOULD PROBABLY
PUT THAT BACK.
SIMON SEEMS
PRETTY CLOSE TO THAT THING.
FUCK HIM.
WHY DON'T YOU TRY
SHOOTING WITH IT?
NOPE.
NO INTEREST.
I WOULDN'T EVEN KNOW
WHERE TO BEGIN.
IT'S EASY.
ALL YOU GOTTA DO
IS HIT THIS REC--
IT WAS ALREADY
RECORDING.
THAT PRETTY MUCH SUMS UP
WHO SHOULD BE USING IT.
[SIMON]: FUCK,

THE WORLD'S
LARGEST ASSHOLE.

OH, MY GOD...
[SIMON BREATHING HARD]
[CAMERA AUDIO SCRAMBLES]

WELL, I KNOW IT'S BEEN
A BIT OF
A WEIRD TRIP SO FAR,
BUT, LOOK AT IT THIS WAY.

NO.
WELL, THERE YOU GO.
LOOK, WHAT YOU SAID
ABOUT LAURA--
NO, I-I--
LOOK, I'M... I'M SORRY.
I TOTALLY WENT OFF.
IT WASN'T CALLED FOR.
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
IT'S OKAY.
I UNDERSTAND.
THIS WHOLE TIME, I WAS ONLY
THINKING ABOUT HER.
I NEVER EVEN
CONSIDERED HOW YOU FEEL.
I DON'T WANT TO TALK
ABOUT LAURA ANYMORE, OKAY?
OKAY.
BUT I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW
THAT PEOPLE CHANGE,
FEELINGS CHANGE.
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
YOU THINK WE'LL EVER
HAVE A CONVERSATION
WITHOUT THAT CAMERA?
WELL, I WOULD HAVE
THOUGH THAT YOU WERE
USED TO IT BY NOW.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW...
WE'RE GETTING
THIS CLOSE AND ALL.
OKAY, TOO CLOSE.

NO BIRTHDAY PHOTOS.
REALLY?
YEAH.
IT'S WEIRD.
I HAVE SO FEW MEMORIES
OF PAST EVENTS
IN MY LIFE.
I MEAN, HOW DO YOU
CONNECT WITH YOUR PAS WHEN YOU DON' HAVE A PHOTO?
THAT'S WHY WHEN I SAW
THIS CAMERA AT THE SHOP,
I WAS JUST LIKE--
BOOM.
"I GOTTA HAVE IT."
NO IFS, ANDS, OR BUTS.
I HAVE TO.
[SIGHS] YEAH...
IF MY PARENTS...
IF MY PARENTS ARE GOING TO
ROB ME OF MY MEMORIES,
THEN...
THEN I'M GONNA
MAKE UP MY OWN,
AND I CAN SHOO WHAT I WANT,
AND THEN I CAN
PICK AND CHOOSE,
AND I CAN TAKE IT HOME,
AND I CAN PLAY WITH

[CAMERA THUMPING TO FLOOR]
[SIMON]: WHAT THE FUCK

HEY, DON'T TALK LIKE THAT.
YOU DON'T SOUND LIKE YOU.
NO, I WISH
IT WASN'T TRUE.
BUT IT IS.
[BREATHING HARD]
THIS CAMERA,
IT SHOWS ME THINGS,
IT SEES THINGS,
AND I CAN' HELP MYSELF NOT TO LOOK.
I'M PULLED TO IT.
WHAT EXACTLY DID YOU SEE?
PEOPLE'S FACES.
WHAT ABOUT THEM?
[GASPING]
IT'S HARD
TO EXPLAIN, BUT...
THE PEOPLE GO ALL FUZZY
AND FUCKED UP.
WHEN YOU SEE THEM
IN THE CAMERA?
YEAH.
AND THEN WHAT?
[BREATHING HARD]
THEY DIE.
THEY'RE DEAD.
ALL OF THEM.
SIMON, WHO'S DEAD?
ALL OF WHO?
YOU REMEMBER THE DEER
THAT WAS HIT BY THE CAR?
YEAH.
YOU REMEMBER
THE TOUR BUS?
NUMBER 69?
REMEMBER?
YEAH, YEAH.
WELL, THAT BUS SLAMMED
INTO A CONCRETE MEDIAN,
AND EVERYONE DIED.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
IT WAS IN THE PAPER.
I SAW IT TODAY.
OKAY, SO WHAT?
WHAT DOES THA HAVE TO DO WITH THE CAMERA?
I SHOT THEM, EVA.
I LOOKED RIGHT AT THEM
THROUGH
THIS FUCKING CAMERA.
ALL OF THEIR FACES WERE-
WERE MESSED UP.
LIKE THERE WAS A--
A BLOTCH ON THEM,
I DON'T KNOW.
THEN I DON'T...
I DON'T REALLY GET IT.
YOU'VE BEEN SHOOTING US,
RICH AND I, THIS WHOLE TIME.
HOW COME WE'RE NOT DEAD?
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW.
WELL, WAS MY FACE
ALL MESSED UP?
DID IT HAVE
A BLOTCH ON IT?
NO, NO, IT WAS FINE.
IT WAS COMPLETELY FINE.
IT WAS PERFECT...
BUT ALL...
ALL THE TOURISTS,
AND THE MOTEL CLERK,
AND THE CONVENIENCE
STORE DUDE,
THEY ALL HAD
BLOTCHES ON THEM.
AND THEY'RE ALL DEAD.
YEAH, EXACTLY.
BUT YOU'VE BEEN FINE,
YOU'VE BEEN FINE.
YOU AND RICH.
OKAY, WELL,
THE ONLY DIFFERENCE
IS THAT YOU KNOW US.
THOSE OTHERS,
THEY WERE STRANGERS.
[SIGHS]
YEAH...
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.
WELL... OKAY,
THIS MIGHT SOUND CRAZY.
I DON'T KNOW
IF I BELIEVE THIS, BUT...
WHAT IF...
WHAT IF THE PEOPLE
THAT YOU CARE ABOU ARE NOT AFFECTED
BY THE CAMERA?
[CAREFULLY] YEAH.
THAT MAKES SENSE.
[MORE CONFIDENTLY]
THAT MAKES SENSE.
YOU AND RICH
HAVE BEEN FINE.
[SIGHS]
THEN PEOPLE THAT I LOVE...
--OR CARE ABOUT ARE
NOT AFFECTED BY IT.
THAT MAKES SENSE.
YOU KNOW,
I SUSPECTED SOMETHING
AT THE CONVENIENCE
STORE,
AND THAT'S WHY
I SHOT THE CLERK.
AND EVEN THOUGH
I SAW HIS REFLECTION
IN THE MIRROR--
WHOA, YOU TAPED
THE CLERK ON PURPOSE?
YEAH, I HAD TO BE SURE.
ARE YOU CRAZY?
NO, WHAT?
I HAD TO BE SURE.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
JESUS, SIMON, I DON'T KNOW...
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE.
JUST THROW IT AWAY.
NO.
JUST GET RID OF
THE CAMERA, SIMON.
NO, NO, I CAN'T.
I CAN'T, I CAN'T...
OKAY, WELL, DON'T USE IT, THEN,
JUST LEAVE IT OFF.
LET'S TALK TO THE COPS
IN THE MORNING.
[SCOFFING] YEAH.
THEY'RE NO GONNA BELIEVE ME.
EVEN RICH
DOESN'T BELIEVE ME.
DO YOU?
I DON'T KNOW.
I'M REALLY SCARED, SIMON.
LET'S JUST NOT USE IT, OKAY?
GIVE IT TO ME.
I'LL HOLD IT.
I PROMISE I WON'T DO
ANYTHING WITH IT.
YEAH.
OKAY.
HEY, EVA.
WHAT DID LAURA SAY

WHAT?
BEFORE WE LEF ON THE TRIP.
WHEN YOU CAME DOWN
FROM THE APARTMENT,
YOU SEEMED A LITTLE...

YEAH, L.T. WAS
A LITTLE OFF HERSELF.
SHE WOULDN'T REALLY

SHE DIDN' SAY ANYTHING?

FUCK, SIMON, TELL ME
WHAT'S GOING ON.
NO, YOU TELL ME.

OKAY, YOU KNOW WHAT?
YOU'RE MAKING ME

AND THEN
ALL OF A SUDDEN
HE CHANGES

WHAT'D HE SAY?
HE WANTED TO KNOW
IF SHE SAID
ANYTHING TO ME
BEFORE WE LEFT.
DID SHE?
NO.
SHE WAS ACTING

HOW?
SHE COULDN' LOOK ME IN THE EYE.
DIDN'T WANT TO
TALK MUCH.
THE COLD SHOULDER,
REALLY.
THAT'S IT?
YEAH.
SHE DIDN'T SAY
ANYTHING ELSE?
NO.
WHY? WHA DOES IT MATTER?
I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE
THINGS OUT HERE.
MAYBE THAT'S THE REASON
WHY HE'S ACTING SO STRANGE.
YEAH, YOU'RE
PROBABLY RIGHT.
ARE YOU SURE L.T.
DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ELSE?
[EXASPERATED] NO!
SHE WAS PRETTY QUIET.
[SIGHS HEAVILY]
YOU KNOW WE HAVE THE CAMERA
RIGHT HERE.
WHY DON'T WE JUST TAKE IT?
RICH,
HE'D FREAK OUT.
FUCK HIM.
HE'S FREAKING ME OUT.
I SAY WE HIDE IT ON HIM.
OR BETTER YET,
SMASH THE FUCKING THING.
NO WAY.
IT'S NOT FAIR, RICH.

WHY DON'T YOU TRY
TALKING TO HIM AGAIN?
I DON'T WAN ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS

SHE'S A LITTLE UPSET,
AND IF YOU CARE ABOUT HER
AT ALL,
YOU'LL LEAVE HER ALONE.
[EVA]:
SIMON...
[CAMERA AUDIO SCRAMBLES]
NO, DO NOT FILM ME.
WHY DO YOU KEEP
SHOOTING US
IF YOU KNEW
THAT WE WOULD DIE?
THAT'S A GOOD
FUCKING QUESTION.
BECAUSE
IT'S TOO LATE.
ONCE YOU'RE ON
VIDEO, THAT'S IT.
AH... THAT'S NOT WHA YOU SAID BEFORE, SIMON.
WHAT?
OH, YOU HAVEN'T HEARD?
SIMON BELIEVES--
[CAMERA AUDIO SCRAMBLES]

BECAUSE THEY
WON'T DIE.
OR HAS THA CHANGED NOW, SIMON?
I DON'T KNOW.
WHAT THE HELL ARE
YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT?
I DON'T KNOW WHA TO BELIEVE ANYMORE.
SIMON, DON'T YOU
FUCKING FILM ME!
SIMON, IF YOU BELIEVE
THAT YOU CAN SHOO PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE,
AND THAT THEY WON'T DIE,
THEN IT'S MORE THAN
JUST THE CAMERA, SIMON.
IT'S YOU.
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW,

WE SHOULD RESOLVE THIS
BEFORE SHE GETS HERE.
START TALKING.
TRUCE?

YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL.
TRUTH IS, I DON'T BELIEVE

BUT...

IT'S NOT TRUE.
FUCK, I'M AN ATHEIST,

YEAH, WELL,
THERE'S ALWAYS EXCEPTIONS

HOW MUCH HAVE YOU
HAD TO DRINK, RICH?

DON'T CHANGE THE SUBJECT.
PASS ME THE CAMERA.
IF I PASS YOU
THIS CAMERA,
DO NO FILM ME.
I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL.
I PROMISE I WON'T FILM YOU.
IT'S NOT SUCH A HARD THING

NO, I DON'T THINK YOU DID.
YOU SEE, I TALKED TO HER
BEFORE THIS TRIP.
SHE WAS A WEE BIT UPSET.
SEEMS LIKE YOUR RELATIONSHIP
WASN'T GOING SO WELL.
MAYBE YOU WERE FEELING
A BIT DIFFERENT ABOUT HER.
MAYBE YOU'RE FEELING
A BIT DIFFERENT ABOUT EVA.
SO TELL ME, SIMON.
WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP
WITH EVA?
HUH?
I CARE FOR HER.
I REALLY DO.
REALLY.
DO YOU LOVE HER?
RICH, I DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO SAY.
BECAUSE I DO,
I LOVE HER,
BUT SHE DOESN'T KNOW.
SHE DOESN' HAVE A CLUE.
YOU LOVE MY GIRLFRIEND.
[KICKS METAL DRUM ANGRILY]
ARE YOU FUCKING

OH, SHOULD I ASK HER?
NO! DO NOT--
HUH?

NO, I'M TELLING YOU,
SHE DOESN'T KNOW!
AND SHE NEVER WILL!
SHE NEVER WILL, SIMON.
YOU WON'T SAY
ONE FUCKING WORD TO HER.
YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
