In part one, Nick and Karilyn wander around Melbourne city. They get caught in the rain, obsess over pigeons, make friends with seagulls, discuss the monsters that spoil book and movie endings, the bliss of reading chapter after chapter, Harry Potter, Star Wars concert, reflect on the year they had, heartless modern buildings, the state of their mentality, Alfonso Cuaron's masterpiece, Roma, buskers, and the absorbing energy permeating the city on a bustling Saturday evening.
