    Billy (Domhnall Gleeson) and Ruby (Merritt Wever) get some strange on a train in HBO's spiky romantic comedy <em>Run</em>.

    The premise is big, bold, even broad: When they broke up in college, fifteen years ago, Ruby (Merritt Wever) and Billy (Domhnall Gleeson) promised each other that if either one of them ever texted the word "RUN" to the other ... and the other texted it back, they would drop everything and meet in Grand Central Station, hop on a cross-country train, and see what happened.

    See? Big idea. High concept. Great elevator pitch. Sold in
