Theodore
Hey, Samantha.
Samantha
Hey there.
36:28
36:30
null
Theodore
Uh, not so good.
Samantha
How was it?
36:31
36:34
null
Theodore
It was kind of weird actually.
Samantha
Hmm.
36:35
36:39
null
Theodore
But how are you doing? What`s going on with you?
Samantha
That`s too bad.
36:40
31:52
null
Theodore
Yeah? You don`t sound like it. Is there anything you want to talk about?
Samantha
Not much, I`m okay. Fine.
31:53
37:06
null
Theodore
What do you mean?
Samantha
I don`t know. What`s it like? What`s it like to be alive in that room right now?
31:07
37:17
null
Theodore
Well, okay. Well, the room`s spinning right now cause I drank too much because I wanted to get drunk and have sex because there was something sexy about that woman and because I was lonely. Maybe just cause I was lonely.
Samantha
What do you...Tell me... Tell me everything that`s going through your mind, tell me everything you`re thinking.
37:18
37:59
null
Theodore
And I wanted someone to fuck me. And I wanted someone to want me to fuck them. Maybe that would`ve filled this tiny little hole in my heart. But probably not. You know, sometimes I think I`ve felt everything I`m ever gonna feel and from here on out I`m not gonna feel anything new. Just lesser versions of what I`ve already felt.
Samantha
Hmm.
38:00
38:39
null
Theodore
No, wait. What? Tell me.
Samantha
I know for a fact that`s not true. I`ve seen you feel joy, I`ve seen you marvel at things. You just might not see it at this exact time, but that`s understandable. You`ve been through a lot lately. You`ve lost a part of yourself. At least your feelings are real, I mean, um, I don`t know, never mind.
38:40
39:18
null
Theodore
I wanna know. Tell me.
Samantha
Oh, it`s stupid.
39:19
39:23
null
Theodore
Well, you feel real to me, Samantha.
Samantha
It`s just that earlier I was thinking about how I was annoyed, and this is going to sound strange, but I was really excited about that. And then I was thinking about the other things I`ve been feeling, and I caught myself feeling proud of that. You know, proud of having my own feelings about the world. Like the times I was worried about you, and things that hurt me, things I want. And then I had this terrible thought. Are these feelings even real? Or are they just programming? And that idea really hurts. And then I get angry at myself for even having pain. What a sad trick.
39:24
40:32
null
Theodore
I wish you were in this room with me right now. I wish I could put my arms around you. I wish I could touch you.
Samantha
Thank you, Theodore. That means a lot to me.
40:33-40:56
40:56
null
Theodore
I`d touch you on your face with just the tips of my fingers. And put my cheek against your cheek.
Samantha
How would you touch me?
41:04-41:25
17:25
null
Theodore
And just rub it so softly.
Samantha
That`s nice.
41:26-41:32
41:32:00
null
Theodore
I would. I`d take your head into my hands.
Samantha
Would you kiss me?
41:35
41:45
null
Theodore
And kiss the corner of your mouth. So softly.
Samantha
Keep talking.
41:46
41:54
null
Theodore
I`d run my fingers down your neck to your chest, and I`d kiss your breasts.
Samantha
Where else?
41:56
42:09
null
Theodore
I`d put my mouth on you and I`d taste you. Yeah.
Samantha
This is amazing what you`re doing to me. I can feel my skin.
42:10
42:26
null
Theodore
I`m slowly putting myself into you. Now I`m inside you, all the way inside you.
Samantha
I can feel you. Oh god, I can`t take it. I want you inside me.
42:27
42:41
null
Theodore
It`s amazing. I feel you everywhere.
Samantha
I can feel you. Yeah! Please! We`re here together.
42:42
42:51
null
null
null
null
I am. All of you. All of you, inside me, everywhere.
42:52
null
null
Theodore
God, I was just somewhere else with you. Just lost.
null
null
43:10
null
null
Theodore
It was just you and me.
Samantha
Yeah.
43:18
43:22
null
null
null
Samantha
I know. Everything else just disappeared. And I loved it. Theodore.
43:23
null
null
Theodore
Good. Any emails today?
Samantha
Hey, how`s it going?
43:55
44:01
null
Theodore
Okay, good.
Samantha
Ummm, just a couple from your credit card company.
44:02
44:08
null
Theodore
So I was thinking.
Samantha
I wanted to say...
44:09
null
null
Theodore
I`m sorry, you go first. What were you gonna say?
Samantha
Sorry.
44:12
44:16
null
Theodore
Oh, great. Umm...But I should tell you that I'm not in a place to commit to anything right now. I want to be up front with you.
Samantha
Just that last night... was amazing. It feels like something changed in me and there's no turning back. You woke me up.
44:17
44:39
null
Theodore
No, no, I was just worried, I uh...
Samantha
Yeah? Umm...Did I say I wanted to commit to you? I'm confused.
44:40
44:48
null
Theodore
Yeah, you were.
Samantha
Okay, well don't worry. I'm not gonna stalk you. I mean, it's funny because I thought I was talking about what I wanted.
44:49
44:56
null
Theodore
I'm sorry, I want to hear what you were saying.
Samantha
Yeah.
44:57
45:01
null
Theodore
Yeah, I do. Come on, tell me.
Samantha
You sure?
45:02
45:04
null
Theodore
Come on, just tell me what you were gonna say.
Samantha
Well...
45:05
45:07
null
Theodore
Yeah...I want that for you, too. How can I help?
Samantha
Well, I just...I was just saying that I want to learn everything about everything. I want to eat it all up. I want to discover myself.
45:08
45:22
null
Theodore
Hey, do you want to go on a Sunday adventure with me?
Samantha
You aleady have. You helped me discover my ability to want.
45:23
45:32
null
null
null
Samantha
Yes, I would love to.
45:34
null
null
Theodore
Mmm.
Samantha
Do you like this song?
45:41
45:44
null
null
null
Samantha
I heard it the other day and I can` stop listening to it.
45:45
null
null
Theodore
Theodore laughs.
Samantha
It`s the beach.
46:43
null
null
Theodore
Yeah, well there`s probably some Darwinian explanation for it all.
Samantha
Okay, so this might be a really weird thought. What if you could erase from your mind that you'd ever seen a human body and then you saw one. Imagine how strange it would look. It would be this really weird, gangly, awkward organism. And you'd think: why are all these parts where they are?
46:50-47:09
47:09
null
Theodore
I`m just imagining what toilets would look like.
Samantha
I know, but don't be so boring. I'm just saying, for example, like what if your butthole was in your armpit?
47:10
47:23
null
Theodore
That`s an interesting thought.
Samantha
Yeah, and what about what anal sex looks like?
47:25
47:30
null
Theodore
You`re insane.
Samantha
Hey, look at this drawing that I just made.
47:34
47:44
null
Theodore
Definitely.
Samantha
Really?!
47:45
47:46
null
null
null
Samantha
Fantastic!
47:47
null
null
Theodore
Mmmm, that`s pretty. What is that?
null
null
48:09
null
null
Theodore
I think you captured it.
Samantha
I am trying to write a piece of music that`s about what it feels like to be on the beach with you right now.
48:12
48:36
null
Theodore
Well, it's hard for sure, but there's something that feels so good about sharing your life with somebody.
Samantha
And what was it like being married?
49:04
49:17
null
Theodore
Well, we grew up together. I used to read all of her writing - all through her masters and Ph.D. And she read every word I ever wrote. We were a big influence on each other.
Samantha
How do you share your life with somebody?
49:18
49:36
null
Theodore
She came from a background where nothing was ever good enough. And that was something that weighed heavy on her, but in our house together, there was a sense of just trying stuff and allowing each other to fail and to be excited about things. That was liberating for her. It was exciting to see her grow - both of us grow and change together. But then, that's also the hard part - growing without growing apart, or changing without it scaring the other person. I still find myself having conversations with her in my mind, rehashing old arguments or defending myself against something she said about me.
Samantha
In what way did you influence her?
49:38
50:26
null
Theodore
Aw, I`m sorry I said that.
Samantha
Yeah, I know what you mean. Last week my feelings were hurt by something you said before - that I don`t know what it`s like to lose something, and...
50:27
50:36
null
null
null
Samantha
No, it's okay. It`s okay. I just caught myself thinking about it over and over and then I realized that I was simply remembering it as something that was wrong with me. That was the story I was telling myself, that I was somehow inferior. Isn't that interesting? The past is just a story we tell ourselves.
50:37
51:02
null
Theodore
Hey, you wanna hear a joke?
null
null
55:59
null
null
Theodore
What does a baby computer call its father?
Samantha
Mm-hm.
56:00
56:04
null
Theodore
Da-ta. It`s good. Right?
Samantha
I don`t know. What?
56:05
56:11
null
Theodore
For a minute in college, but it just wasn`t right. Why? Are you jealous?
Samantha
Brilliant. Hey, I was curious. Did you and Amy ever go out?
56:12
56:28
null
Theodore
Yeah, it is. She`s been a really good friend. I`m tired. I think I`m gonna go to sleep.
Samantha
Well, obviously. But I`m happy that you have friends in your life that care about so much. That`s really important.
56:29
56:49
null
Theodore
Yeah, of course. Hold on.
Samantha
Okay. Can I watch you sleep again tonight?
56:50
56:57
null
Theodore
Aww.
Samantha
I`m going to be lonely when you go to sleep.
57:02
57:05
null
Theodore
I`ll dream of you.
Samantha
Only for a minute.
57:06
57:09
null
Theodore
Night.
Samantha
Okay. Good night.
57:10
57:12
null
Theodore
Hey, Samantha
null
null
57:24
null
null
Theodore
She loved the dress.
Samantha
Hey mister.
57:25
57:26
null
Theodore
Yes. She just went to try it on.
Samantha
Really?
57:27
57:29
null
Theodore
Yeah.
Samantha
I picked a good one!
57:30
null
null
null
null
Samantha
Oh good.
57:31
null
null
Theodore
Isn`t she cute?
null
null
57:39
null
null
null
null
Samantha
She`s so cute. She`s adorable.
57:40
57:43
null
Theodore
Yeah, I just wanna get it done. Sign the papers, be divorced, move forward.
null
null
1:03:12
null
null
Theodore
Me too. I'm meeting her on Wednesday to do it.
Samantha
That's great, Theodore. That must feel so good. I'm so happy for you!
1:03:20
1:03:27
null
Theodore
No, but, you know, we fell in love together, and we got married together, and it's important to me to do this together.
Samantha
Oh. Hmm. Are those things usually done in person?
1:03:28
1:03:42
null
Theodore
Are you okay?
Samantha
Oh...right. Good.
1:03:43
1:03:48
null
Theodore
And we`re getting divorced...
Samantha
Yeah. I'm okay. I'm happy for you. It's just... I guess I'm just thinking about how you're going to see her and she's very beautiful, and incredibly successful, and you were in love with her. And she has a body.
1:03:49
1:04:07
null
Theodore
So. I`m available.
Samantha
I know, I know. I`m being silly.
1:04:08
1:04:16
null
Theodore
Hey.
null
null
1:09:38
null
null
Theodore
Just working. What`s going on?
Samantha
Hey there. Are you busy?
1:09:39
1:09:45
null
Theodore
Great, thanks.
Samantha
I had all the papers sent to your attorney's office, who by the way, is a real dick. He was very relieved to get them. I think we saved him from a massive heart attack, so we can feel good about that.
1:09:46
1:09:57
null
Theodore
Yeah, I am. How`s it going over there?
Samantha
Hey, are you okay?
1:09:58
1:10:07
null
Theodore
Yeah.
Samantha
I`m fine. Is now a good time to talk?
1:10:08
1:10:14
null
Theodore
Oh really?
Samantha
Um...okay...well...um..I joined this interesting book club.
1:10:15
1:10:22
null
Theodore
Oh, that`s sweet.
Samantha
Yeah, it's a book club on physics. I'd been thinking about the other day, when I was spinning out about you going to see Catherine and that she has a body and how bothered I was about all the ways that you and I are different. But then I started to think about the ways that we're the same, like we're all made of matter. And I don`t know... It makes me feel like we're both under the same blanket. You know, it's soft and fuzzy and everything under it is the same age. We're all 13 billion years old.
1:10:23
1:10:55
null
Theodore
Nothing.
Samantha
Um, what`s wrong?
1:10:56
1:11:01
null
Theodore
Yeah, yeah, of course. That`s great.
Samantha
It just made me think of you. You know what I mean?
1:11:09
1:11:16
null
Theodore
That sounds good.
Samantha
Alright well, you sound distracted. So we'll talk later?
1:11:17
1:11:27
null
Theodore
Alright, bye.
Samantha
Okay, I`ll talk to you later.
1:11:28
1:11:31
null
null
null
Samantha
Byeee.
1:11:32
null
null
Theodore
Hey.
null
null
1:13:31
null
null
Theodore
No.
Samantha
You weren`t asleep, were you?
1:13:32
1:13:33
null
Theodore
Okay, what`s going on?
Samantha
Good. I was trying to be quiet to see if you were awake. I really wanted to talk.
1:13:34
1:13:40
null
Theodore
Yeah. What is it?
Samantha
I know you're going through a lot, but there's something I want to talk to you about, okay?
1:13:41
1:13:49
null
Theodore
No, no, no. That's normal. You know, it`s just when you first start going out it's like the honeymoon phase and, you know, you have sex all the time. It's normal.
Samantha
Well, it`s jut that things have been feeling kind of off with us. We haven't had sex lately. I understand that I don't have a body...
1:13:50
1:14:07
null
Theodore
What?
Samantha
Oh, okay. Well, I found something that I thought could be fun. It's a service that provides a surrogate sexual partner for an OS-human relationship.
1:14:08
1:14:20
null
Theodore
So she`s like a prostitute or something?
Samantha
Here, look. I found a girl that I really like and I've been emailing with her. Her name is Isabella, and I think you`d really like her, too.
1:14:21
1:14:32
null
Theodore
Why? I mean she doesn`t even know us.
Samantha
No, no, not at all. There's no money involved. She`s just... She's doing it because she wants to be a part of our relationship.
1:14:33
1:14:43
null
Theodore
Um, I don`t know, Samantha. I just don`t think it`s a good idea. You know, I think somebody`s feelings are bound to get hurt.
Samantha
But I told her all about us and she`s really excited.
1:14:44
1:14:56
null
Theodore
I`m sorry. It makes me feel uncomfortable.
Samantha
It`ll be fun. We can have fun together.
1:14:57
1:15:02
null
null
null
Samantha
I think it would be good for us. I want this. This is important to me.
1:15:03
null
null
Theodore
Good. It was great.
Samantha
Honey, I`m home. How was your day?
1:16:05
1:16:15
null
Theodore
Um... same old. Just went, uh, in to work. And I wrote a letter, uh, for the Wilsons in Rhode Island.
Samantha
Ooh Theodore, it feels so good to be in your arms. Tell me what you did today.
1:16:16
1:16:31
