Das komfortable Leben der Lehrerin und erfolglose Romanautorin Iris gerät nach dem Suizid ihres engsten Freundes und Mentors Walter komplett aus dem Takt. Plötzlich muss sie sich in The Friend um seine drei Ex-Frauen, sein literarisches Erbe und allen voran seine deutsche Dogge Apollo kümmern. Der riesige Hund, den sie eigentlich überhaupt nicht in ihrem Manhattan Apartment halten darf, folgt ihr von da an durch ihre ganzen neuen Krisen und erinnert Iris schmerzlich an ihren Verlust.

00:00What's going to happen to the dog?
00:18Iris, I need to talk with you. It's about the dog.
00:22I wanted to ask if you could take him.
00:25No, I can't. No.
00:27This is what Walter wanted after he died.
00:31Why would he say that?
00:33You were his best friend.
00:38He's there, at the top of the hill, between the two bridges, silhouetted against the limpet sky.
00:44You're making this up.
00:46You could have a point, but the fact is the dog magically appeared.
00:50He can't stay. Management company, they are very strict.
00:54Not a problem. I'm working on it. Just a few days.
00:58Bad dog!
01:01That's just great.
01:05How's the book going?
01:07There's considerable interest and we've got to capitalize on it now.
01:10I just can't keep having him here.
01:12He's taken over my bed and he's getting in the way of my work.
01:16I don't think it's about the dog.
01:18He's in mourning. He lost his master.
01:20How would you feel?
01:23If Walter were here, what would you like to say to him?
01:25I want to tell him that no matter how much I sleep, I'm exhausted.
01:30That I feel as though I'm losing control.
01:33Remove the dog!
01:35I'll sit here too.
01:41You're not thinking of keeping him now.
01:44Of course not.
01:47You okay, bud?
01:49I could feel him missing Walter in the same way I did.
01:51The dog provides essential emotional support.
01:54I guess I saw it the other way around.
01:57Like I'm the emotional support human and it's the dog that can't cope.
02:02What?
02:10I keep thinking of you.
02:12How among all the other questions certain to have come to you was...
02:16What's going to happen to the dog?
02:21I don't know.
