Bold = Faye
Italics = Tom

Tommy?

Faye? Are you okay?

No, I'm on the tour
{hyperventilating} bus
and I can't breathe

Hey, you got this. You're
amazing, you're Faye
Holland! Just take some
deep breaths, I know it's
scary and I know you
feel like the accident
all over again but you
are not that car. You
are not driving, you
haven't even been in a
car while drunk. You're
okay.

I'm not okay,
Tommy. I'm really
not okay.

Turn on the TV, put a
show on or the music
video channel - you know
you love the music video
channel.

{sniffles} I feel like
I can't move.

I need you to listen
to me. You need to
ground your settings.
Where are you?

{stutters} In the
master bedroom
of the bus.

Cool, is it big?

No, dipshit, it's a bus.

{laughs and speaks
to someone in the
background} Okay,
what's in the room?

Uh, {sniffles} a
bed, a table, a
lamp, a tv, that's
all really.

Cool, do you still
have that Spider-Man
plushie?

It's on the floor.

You put me on
the floor?! {laughs}

Sorry.

It's okay, I was
kidding. Is the TV
on now?

No, I {breathe} I
don't know where
the remote is.

Have you got your laptop?

Yeah.

Okay, put Netflix on.
Hey, I heard the new
season of The Good Place
has been our for a few
weeks now. Or, that band
you like has been releasing
some new music. What
are they called? Viola Beach?

Yeah {sniffles}

You could listen to them.

Thanks for answering
the phone, Tommy. I
know you're busy.

Hey, you know you
can talk to me. No
matter what I'm doing,
or where I am. I'm
never too busy for you

I know, thanks Tommy.

I have to get back to
filming. Spider-Man's
going to space.

{attempts to
laugh} I'll let you
go. Bye, Tommy.

Bye Faye, just keep
breathing.
