She prescribed antidepressants.
Oh, God, Lu, are you sure you really need these?
Well, a doctor told me that, not my neighbour.
Sure, I understand, but I don't know if...
Yes, they have contraindications.
Ok...
Listen, do you want to order dinner?

I don't feel like cooking.
I can do the cooking!

What's in the fridge?
It's empty, I don't feel like shopping.

Should we order Chinese? Or Mexican?
Lu, we can't always order takeaway, I don't have much---
My treat, don't bother. Mexican come on.
No Lu, that's not the point, you can't always offer.

I'll go shopping, come on, I'll be right back!
What a pain in the ass!

Why do you always have to do this?
Because I can't afford to order takeaway all the time, and I don't want to depend on you for everything!
Shit, then go shopping!

In the meantime, I stay in bed a little longer.
Do you want something from the supermarket?
Wrist razor blades, please.
OK, see you later.

Don't leave me, Frankie, please.

I don't know what to do without you...
Are you kidding? No way.

I'm sorry, Luly, it's just crazy right now.

I'm always nervous, all these pointless job interviews make me anxious.

I can't slow down my thoughts and I am obsessed with the fear of being unemployed for life...
Hey, don't worry, I'm up to my neck in it too.

At least I have my parents to help me, and you have no idea how much I regret not being able to do anything for you.

But you never want to accept help...
I know, it's just that...

I feel guilty.

I don't want to take advantage of you, I want to do what I can with my own strength.
But it's impossible right now Frankie, don't you understand?

You cannot do it alone!

Let me help you.
Like...

With a kiss?
Haha

Yes, we can start with a kiss.

But only if you give me one too!
But only one, no more than that.

Come here dummy.

We will come out together.

We'll make it, you'll see.
Thank you Lu.

I love you.
I love you too, dummy squared.

Luly, I'm going out.

I'm going to the interview!

There is an exhibition at the castle, we can go there when I get ba-
No, I don't feel like it today.

Shit, Luly, you can't stay in bed all day!

React, read, do something, please!
Why are you such an asshole?

Do you really think I like staying in bed all day?
I don't fucking know!

You complain about being sick and then do nothing to get better.
Because I can't fucking do it, Frankie!

Fuck, I can't do it!

If it were up to me, I swear I'd be out in the streets dancing or in the library reading or working on our fucking website!

I wouldn't stay here locked up in the house in bed wearing out the sheets.

Jesus, do you really not get it?
I don't know, you seem to be wallowing in it...
I'm wallowing?

For God's sake, Frankie, get the fuck out of here.
