- [playing George Michael: Faith]
- Bad news. Worse news.

Fake news.

♪ Before I give my heart away

- Whoa!
- [music stops]

[wind howling]

What?!

I can't hear you!

Watch out!

[Eli] I haven't been batting a thousand
with vision interpretation,

but is it even required?

After one vision,
you think a plane will crash.

No, I know a plane is gonna crash.

My dad saw a plane crash in his vision,
and guess what, a plane crashed!

- How is this different?
- Apart from the woman in white?

Sounds a lot like the Virgin Mary,
which some Catholics consider

to be a harbinger of impending disaster.
Like, say, a plane crash.

I Googled "disaster" and "women.

Waded through sites
of Sarah Palin and Britney Spears.

Replaced by technology.
I wouldn't be the first.

How do I prevent a plane crash?

It would help to know
what flight it was. Or the airline.

You don't even know
what field it crashed in.

You wanna know why I'm cheating
on you with the Internet?

Fine. Why don't you go back online,
see what you can learn about this woman.

They're so tiny and adorable!

- Where'd you get these?
- They were yours.

To be honest, I considered throwing them
away, but your mother wouldn't let me.

They were her baby shoes and her
mother's, and now they're yours again.

- Me and Matt.
- Gloss

Who would have thought, right?

The two of you, you're happy?

We are.

I thought working together again
was gonna drive me nuts,

but after seeing
his frat-boy face all day,

can you believe I look forward
to seeing it again at night?

He's a lucky man.

The truth is, I think I'm the lucky one.

You know me, I'm always waiting
for the other shoe to drop, but...

...I don't know,
this time I don't think it's going to.

Are you OK?

I've been thinking
about your mother a lot lately.

Believe it or not,
I actually called her.

You what?
Way to bury the lead.

- What did she say?
- Nothing.

It's possible she's been plagued of late

by someone calling repeatedly
and then hanging up.

Dad.

The phone ringing always seemed
to be the interval where

a genuine attempt at reconciliation
became a fool's errand.

Maybe if you'd given her the chance
to answer, maybe you'd be surprised.

That has been happening with more
and more frequency as I get older.

- Eli, you, Matt.
- Gloss

When you talk to Mom,
tell her I said thanks for these.

[Maggie] Tammy, can you get
these redlined by noon?

Aaron in Research needs
the list of housing NPOs.

I'll need you to revise
the citations for the Salma-Hoyt brief.

The blue book on them's a disaster.

You gave that woman
six additional hours of work

without even a touch of guilt.

- Very impressive.
- You have a quadriplegic to sue?

Or an endangered species to take
off the endangered species list?

Sounds fun, but I'm handling
the Chaykin litigation.

In fact, I could use a second chair.

Be a lot of long days, weekends,
maybe some travel.

Posner told me to pick my own team...

You'd rather spend 15 hours
in a conference room with me

than Tommy Woo.

OK, now, that would have come off
as sexist if I'd said it.

I'm flattered, but representing
monolithic monopolizing corporations

isn't really in my wheelhouse.

After the ass you kicked
with Bay West Media?

- Wheelhouse is being renovated.
- I can't.

You're sadly mistaken if you think
I'm gonna take no for an answer.

How about an "I'll think about it"?

Best and final offer.

Guess that'll have to do.

[woman] Do you really care who gets
the Beatles collection if we divorce?

I built that collection,
it's mine no matter what.

- Write that down.
- I helped you.

We can calculate a way
both of you get your share of...

I'm sorry. Buying me a CD does
not constitute building a collection.

Giving me a ring and saying "why not?"
doesn't constitute an engagement.

- Write that down.
- No reason to write anything...

- You never complained before.
- We're getting married.

- The proposal should have been special.
- Remember why we're all here.

We'd rather fight now
instead of when we're married.

You want to be married, you don't avoid
conflict, you embrace it.

Marriage is about fighting all
night and refusing to walk away.

Doing whatever it takes to stay together
because you can't imagine being apart.

- They know what marriage is about.
- It's spending 12 hours together,

and wanting to go home
and spend the next 12 hours together.

So marry me.

Is this part of the prenup process?

Did you hear that, Steven?
That was a proposal.

This has shown you don't love me enough
to express it as well as a lawyer.

- A lawyer.
- OK, Cheryl. Oh...

Hey! Cher... Help me get her back in
here, and do not bill me for the time.

Cheryl!

[soft rock plays]

Hey, guys?

What is so difficult about this, Patti?
Any connection.

Any connection between a woman
in a white dress and a plane crash.

[Patti] What? Are you crazy?

Your continued enthusiasm
on this project is greatly appreciated.

- Fine.
- OK.

Well?

Well, it's technical, but I'll try and
put it in terms that you can understand.

- Brain good. Personality bad.
- No joking. Everything was all right?

I was standing over the technician's
shoulder. We looked at your MRI,

we compared it to last month's scan
and nothing has changed.

- You're still a tool.
- [pager buzzing]

- Damn.
- Is that about me?

You're not my only patient.
What happened?

- Just got the page.
- The transplant was locked.

- My patient's in prep.
- Donor's parents pulled out.

They can't.
The coordinator got their consent.

They revoked it.
Something about religious beliefs?

- What religious beliefs?
- Exactly.

The patient's an atheist,
and the donor's parents are not.

They balked at giving
their daughter's heart to a heathen.

How do they even know?

An accident. Nurse got caught up
in the Oprah of it all. I've killed her.

That doesn't solve the problem.
How long is the heart viable?

The would-be donor's in
a vegetative state, so a while.

Let's go.

And where are we going exactly?

Your patient, administration,
risk management

and the donor's parents.
But not necessarily in that order.

Not every problem
can be solved by suing.

I've got a law degree
that says different.

- [sighs] She's in here.
- She?

[Eli] No. Lawyers can be very helpful
when it comes to heart transplants.

Hear about the guy that chose
a 75-year-old lawyer's heart

over a 18-year-old's?

He wanted a heart
that had never been used.

Yeah, you heard it.

All we do around here
is tell her jokes.

Laughter really is the best medicine.

I guess I'm just not sure how a lawyer
can help me get a heart.

It's a matter of persuading
the would-be donor's parents...

The Carlisles.

Yeah, to change their minds and restore
their consent for the transplant.

Good luck with that. They seemed pretty
adamant when they left my room.

They have a problem
with your religious beliefs?

Mainly that I don't seem to have them.

They came in here and asked me
to join them in a prayer.

And you passed.

I'm kind of devoutly atheist,
if such a thing is possible.

You didn't have to
tell the Carlisles that.

A drunk driver turned their daughter
into a vegetable, Dr. Stone.

I'm not taking a piece of her under
false pretenses to save my life.

One doesn't have to believe in God
to feel that guilt.

But just because you're an atheist, it
doesn't mean you don't deserve to live.

Keith, hi. I need your help
with something.

We're asking you to reconsider.

There's nothing to reconsider.

We can't give our daughter's heart to
someone who doesn't share her beliefs.

We can't save someone
who doesn't want to be.

- If you knew Diane...
- We know she doesn't believe in God.

We know she hasn't accepted Jesus.
We know she's going to hell.

Mr. Carlisle, with all due respect,
you don't know that.

All we're asking for here, is for you
to follow your original impulse

- and consent.
- [Ms. Carlisle] We can't do that.

And I realize this must be
hard for you to understand.

I have a learning disability
when it comes to discrimination.

Excuse me?

You want to withhold because Diane
doesn't share your beliefs.

She's going to spend
the rest of eternity in hell.

- So would our daughter's heart.
- You don't know that.

That's the difference
between fact and faith.

I'm sorry.

So I caught up with Cheryl,
convinced her to give Steve a shot,

- and what the hell was that?
- And we're talking about it.

Yes, we're talking about it.
You asked me to marry you.

Last month, you asked me to marry you.

This was different.
This was like... not kidding.

- There was a whole speech.
- I know.

I was listening to our clients
pre-negotiate

everything in their marriage and I
thought I should take my own advice.

Everything we've been through
this year, the baby,

the genetics thing, maybe we should just
marry each other and stop wasting time.

You're not gonna get down
on one knee or anything?

Because when we tell this story, and we
will, I want to be the one proposing.

- Taylor, will you marry me?
- I asked you first. Come here.

[laughing]

[Eli] Any judge is gonna look
at those grieving parents

and hold us in contempt
for harassing them.

Hoping you have a better strategy. I'm
gonna work the transplant coordinator.

The alternative is convincing a judge
to order two parents

to send part of their
daughter to burn in hell.

Diane?

Did a cold chill run up my spine?
I'm not going to lie. It did.

So it is with both terror and joy

that I announce the engagement of my
beloved daughter to Mr. Matthew Dowd.

Hey, what's going on?

Taylor got her second proposal
from a lawyer at this firm.

...down the hallway
to ask the father's permission.

My lack of forewarning explains
my lack of an engagement present.

However, that isn't to say
that I don't have something to give.

Due to financial constraints, the firm's
Christmas gifts were on back order.

Until now. Ladies.

Given the holiday season
has passed,

let us simply call them
engagement presents for everyone.

[applause]

[Eli] Maybe I haven't made myself clear.

I need to speak to the head of the TSA
for all of North America.

I need to speak with someone
who can ground flights.

Yeah, I...

It's like they get paid extra
when they put you on hold.

Consider yourself lucky
they only put you on hold.

- Eli, this is...
- This is the complaint hotline?

- Yes.
- You want a complaint?

An airplane's gonna fall out of the sky
and no one wants to hear about it.

- [woman] Hold please.
- Yes, I'll hold!

You get that list? Every employee that's
booked air travel in the next 24 hours?

No. I'm not gonna go snooping in
employees' personal business.

You kidding?
That's like a second career for you.

Peoples' lives are on the line.

- [man] May I help you?
- Yes.

My name is Eli Stone. I'm an attorney
for the North American Audubon Society.

I am calling to alert you to a massive
early migration of Canadian geese.

Our... Can you believe it?
They put me on hold again!

No, I did. I found your airplane.

What are you doing?

Well, I put my papers
in this device here,

and it enables me to transport
them from the office to other venues.

Including Colorado, right?

- You booked a flight?
- I'm going to see Taylor's mother.

In person,
where I can't hang up a phone.

That's really wonderful.
You can't go. At least not today.

Probably not for a week,
just to be safe.

I have to go today.
If I don't, I'm afraid I never will.

Well, you not getting there, at least in
one piece, is what I'm concerned about.

OK... what is going on here?

Hm...

I know that you and I have a...

A "don't ask, don't tell" policy
when it comes to this, but...

...my aneurysm moments,
they're visions and they guide me.

I believe that they're sent to me
by a higher power,

and I received one which
has you dying in a plane crash.

It would be great if you could
say something right now.

Eli, I'm aware of your beliefs.

Just as I'm aware that you believe you
saved my life earlier this year.

Sir...

The reason I don't ask and you don't
tell is because I think we both know

that having this conversation would be
detrimental to our relationship.

Why?

Because there's the risk that you'll
feel that my not believing you

could be confused with
not believing in you.

So after what happened at the bank,
you don't...

You convinced search and rescue
to consider the possibility

I took the stairs
instead of the elevator.

A hunch that proved correct
but did not prove the existence of God.

You think I'm crazy?

No more than anyone who believes
the Earth was created in six days

or that a carpenter
once turned water into wine.

I just choose not to live my life
according to those beliefs.

- And if that ends your life?
- Then it does.

And you can console yourself
with knowing you were right.

But I won't be moved on this, Eli.

It's a life-threatening
condition called atrial myxoma.

Diane's heart is literally
splitting in two.

Their daughter's heart
is her only hope.

It would be extremely tear-jerking,
except that you are asking the court

to order the Carlisles to give a piece
of their daughter to a stranger.

No, to order the Carlisles
to honor their original consent.

By forcing them to give a piece
of their daughter to a stranger.

I can't order the Carlisles to give
their consent without a legal basis.

- Promissory estoppel?
- Archaic.

Law doesn't come
with an expiration date.

Enough.
I'm taking the matter under advisement.

My clients' daughter
is lying in a hospital.

And so is Ms. Rundlet.
The clock's ticking for everybody.

I'll deliver my ruling as soon as I can,
but you should encourage your client

to urge her doctor
to keep looking for alternatives.

Maui?

Tomorrow?

We just got engaged six hours ago.
How did you already plan our elopement?

An assistant combined with an irrational
fear of you changing your mind.

Matt, did I seem like
I was on the fence?

I said it was irrational.

- First-class. You went all out.
- Of course.

Besides, would that fit in coach?

- Maybe I will change my mind.
- [laughs]

Come here.

[both chuckle]

Oh, it's the happy couple.
Cutting out of work early to celebrate?

- No, to elope.
- No. That's great...

Before he can back out.
That's smart.

She's already preggers.
No backing out.preggers - pregnant

- Not that I've thought about it.
- Congratulations.

We'll send a postcard from Hawaii.

OK. Wait, no, you can't... you can't...
You can't get on a plane.

Don't worry.
That's what the tickets are for.

- You don't understand.
- I do.

You had a vision. My father told me
after he landed safely in Colorado.

- A vision of a plane going down?
- Like the stock market.

You've seen my visions come true.

Some of them.

The earthquake, your dad. Every time you
have to be convinced all over again.

There's a difference between
believing miracles happen

and believing everything you say
is miraculous.

I love that you care.

We'll bring you back
macadamia nuts.

But...

[woman] Right in there.

What can I do for you, Mr., uh...?

You can call me Todd.

- Todd.
- Thanks.

I appreciate you taking the time.

I know you're really busy
with the Diane Rundlet case.

You know about that?

Yeah, I was, um...
I was Emma Carlisle's boyfriend.script

I'm sorry for your loss.

We broke up about a month ago,
but we stayed close.

After the accident, we had a bunch
of candlelight vigils on campus.

Emma would've hated them.

But at the last one, her roommate told
me what was going on with her parents,

and her heart and everything. So I got
on a bus to come and tell you in person.

Tell me what?

Emma would've wanted that lady
to have her heart.

She wouldn't care
if she believed in God.

I'm sorry to put it bluntly,
but the opinion of Emma's ex-boyfriend

is not gonna sway the judge.
Not when she's got two parents who...

Emma left the church six months ago.
That's kind of why we broke up.

- What happened?
- I don't know.

I still don't understand. I used to ask
her, but the best she could tell me was

it was like being born again,
except in reverse.

- So are you saying...?
- No, no, I'm not saying it.

She said it.

She was an atheist

Her parents don't know.

She was incapable of
disappointing anybody.

Especially them.

What's wrong?

Your testimony, it's hearsay.
It's inadmissible.

At college, I'm pre-law.

I wouldn't have wasted your time
with hearsay.

Clearly the concept
of elopement was invented by a man.

No bride would ever leave this little
time for packing.

Have you seen my flip-flops?

Why aren't you packing?
We're not married yet.

I don't have to pack for you.

Listen, uh... I've been thinking.

No, you haven't.

- I don't think we should do this.
- What?

I don't mean get married.
I don't even mean elope. I mean...

Maybe we shouldn't do the flying part.

It kills me to say this because I had
big plans for you and a coconut bra.

- What if Eli's right?
- You're kidding me.

- You believe him?
- "Believe" is a strong word.

You're the last person
to put stock in Eli.

You're president of the
"Eli's Full of Crap" club.

And I'm 99 percent sure
he's full of crap this time too, but...

- What happened to you?
- Do I have to spell it out for you?

Let's go out on that limb, yes.

You happened.

You and our baby.
It changes the odds a little.

If there's only one percent chance, half
of one percent chance Eli's for real,

then those are lousy odds.

- [Diane] Absolutely not.
- Excuse me?

You are not handing
this girl's e-mails over to the judge.

Diane, I got to ask you something. Um...

- Do you want to die?
- Excuse me?

Every time you get the chance
to do the thing

that'll get you a heart,
you go the other way.

Because I'm an atheist doesn't mean
I live without principles.

You can't live without a heart.
It's time you get off your high horse...

Maybe it's time you respected
your client's wishes.

- Consider it a last request.
- Before I quit, you mean?

I'm sorry if my conscience
is inconvenient for you.

OK. Look, Diane, I understand
why you didn't want to let

the Carlisles think
you're something you're not.

But these e-mails are different.

You're right.
They're worse.

The only thing they have left of
their daughter is their memory of her.

What you want to do would destroy them.

You won't be destroying
their memory of Emma.

She didn't do anything wrong.
She just questioned her faith.

You of all people...

Should undervalue how important
that faith is to someone else?

It's not about living with a heart.

It's about whether I could
live with myself after.

I'm not sure where that leaves us.

I guess it leaves us with you
having to find another way to win.

Stone. Want to play a game called
Guess Where I'm Not Right Now?

- Don't start.
- Wrong.

No, the answer is on a beach, drinking
out of pineapples, learning how to hula.

- You didn't get on the plane.
- Wanna guess what else didn't happen?

You can't be upset
that a plane didn't crash.

No, that I believed yo
when you said it would.

I'm taking Taylor to dinner tonight
and sending you the very large bill.

[reporter] Cause of the crash
has yet to be determined.

Eyewitnesses report a loud explosion

before pieces of the airplane
fell from the sky.

Officials estimate the crash occurred
just after 5:00pm Tuesday,

as the plane exploded above a field
outside of Fresno.

No official number of casualties has
been released to us here at News Eight.

You're out of your mind.

The plane crashes today, Nate.
I know everything.

I know when and where.
Everything except the flight.

Do regular acupuncture.
Needle in the forehead.

Like you did with me and the crane.

We did. Needle's been in there
all morning.

You could drive through the hole
in my head, but nothing.

We don't have a choice.
We have to do the Dark Truth.

Actually, we do. It's called
"letting nature take its course."

That sounds like "letting people die."

You are not responsible for
every lousy thing that happens, Eli.

I am if I can do something to stop it!
And I can stop it if I know more.

And the only way to know more
is the thing.

"The thing."
Is that what we're calling it?

The procedure that nearly killed you?
Gave you your second aneurysm?

I thought you didn't believe
in the Dark Truth.

I can't believe that you
are going along with this!

Your brother's stubborn.
And he makes a good point.

We do it under controlled conditions.
Frank does his thing, and you monitor.

And what am I monitoring exactly?
Whether or not you're losing your mind?

'Cause I don't need an EKG for that.

If the aneurysm, or the aneurysms, look
like they're gonna burst, pull me out.

And what if I can't?

Someone I know is gonna be
on that plane, Nate.

If I could have prevented it...

This is not just about me living.

It's about whether I can
live with myself after.

So basically, what you're
asking me to do is sit back

and watch someone I love die,
so that you don't have to.

I'm not going to die, Nate.
I am not Dad.

- It'll be different.
- How can you know that?

Because Dad was alone.
And I've got you.

OK, for the record,
this is a really bad idea.

Nate.

All right, pulse is good, a little fast,
which is to be expected, I guess.

EEG shows brain function,

so there's something wrong
with the machine obviously.

All right, look,
you'd better come back, OK?

Otherwise I'm going to come in there
after you and kick your ass.

[screams]

[PA] This is the final boarding call
for Key Star flight 524.

Now boarding using gate 17.

He was standing back here.
And then he walked right up.

Still no rhythm?

Nothing.

Time of death, 4:52pm.

[judge] Please be seated.

All right, I've thought on this
for as long as I can,

but both parties are
running out of time here.

Accordingly, I'm prepared to rule
in favor of the Carlisles.

I'd like to call a witness.

I've already made my decision,
Mr. Stone.

I'd like you to reconsider it.
I know you won't without a reason.

Mr. Stone.

The reason will be disclosed
by Vivian Carlisle's testimony.

- Mr. Stone!
- Your Honor,

once you lower that gavel, that's it.

You're holding Diane Rundlet's
one and only chance.

It's all on you here.

What's 15 more minutes?

I'm sorry to put you through this.

You're suffering more
than anyone should have to.

- Just ask your questions, Mr. Stone.
- I only have one.

Why did you revoke consent
to give your daughter's heart to Diane?

First, we've been over this.
You know why.

Second, it wasn't ever our decision
to make. It was Emma's.

So you were making the decision
Emma would have made?

Yes. Emma's relationship with God
defined her life.

She wouldn't want someone
to have her heart

who doesn't even believe they had
the potential to be saved by God.

But what if you're wrong about Emma?

- Excuse me?
- Objection.

Mr. Stone, don't speculate
as to Emma's beliefs.

I'm not speculating.

This is a series of e-mails Emma sent
to her former boyfriend Todd Riley

- over the last six months.
- Objection.

It's hearsay. There's no verification...

It's not hearsay if the witness is
unavailable. Mr. Riley can authenticate.

You have letters from Emma?
What did she say, Mr. Stone?

You don't have to respond.
We get to review.

It's OK. I want to know.

No, please, could you read it?

"Todd, I went
to the school infirmary today,

and the nurse asked me
if I was a Christian.

When I said yes,
she said she'd pray for me.

Really, what is that?

If I wasn't a Christian,
God wouldn't want me to get better?

Something's changed.

I've been going to Mass and saying
the words, but here's what I know:

They're just words.

I don't talk to Him anymore.

So I think... I don't know.
I think I'm done with church.

I've met too many people,
good people, who don't believe.

- And I think that's OK."
- That's enough.

What you're doing is cruel.

You're right. You're right.

And... Diane Rundlet agrees with you.

She didn't want me to read these.

She told me that she would rather lose
her only chance to live

than hurt you or the memory
that you have of your daughter.

Now, I know
she calls herself an atheist.

But I've never heard
of anything more Christian.

[Eli] Patti, listen to me.
You're sure you got everyone?

- No one's flying?
- [Patti] I'm sure!

You got Donna in Accounting, you got
the guy that fixes the coffee machine.

- His name's Mike.
- I know his name.

- I got everyone! Anything else?
- OK. No, no.

- That's great work, Patti.
- All right!

That's great, thank you.

[sighs]

Mr. Stone.

What you did back there was repugnant.

I know. And, uh... well, I'm sorry.

I realize that...
that I may have crossed the line today.

We've heard a few things
about you. That you...

...get messages.

Most of us aren't so lucky.
Most of us struggle

every day to do what's right,

to honor our loved ones,
to hold on to our faith, and we...

We do it in the dark.

What we heard today, those letters,

we're going to choose to believe
they were a message. From Emma.

And we're going to give our consent.

Thank you.

[Diane] You disobeyed
my direct instructions.

Thank you.

I specifically told you
not to use those e-mails.

I told you I didn't want to live with
the Carlisles' pain on my conscience.

Well, I didn't want your death on mine.

- You're fired.
- I'll send you my bill.

I may not believe in the divine,

but after everything you've done for me,

it's easy to see why people do.

[answering machine]
You have one new message.

[Maggie] Hi, Eli, it's me.
Um, I called to thank you.

Though I probably
should be thanking Patti,

because I bet it was her idea
to send me one of these.

Still, your name is on it,
so thank you for the travel bag.

I'm actually using it right now.

I'm heading off to Rome on business.
So, um... bye.

[phone ringing]

Come on, Maggie. Pick up!

- [PA] Final call for passengers...
- My cell died.

We'll get you a new one in Italy.

So you'll be incommunicado
for a couple of days.

Are you all right?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm great.

[PA] This is the final boarding call
for Key Star flight 524.

Non-stop service to Rome.

Now boarding at gate 17.

[panting, grunting]

[woman] Somebody call 911!

[PA] Nurse Sanchez to Radiology.
Nurse Sanchez to Radiology.

Hey.

Hey, Maggie.

How're you feeling?

Uh, like I stopped the express train
with my head.

I'm going to go tell a doctor
you're awake.

Wait. Um...

Did what I think happened, happen?

Your aneurysm burst, Eli.
One of them, anyway.

The doctors managed to stop the bleeding
with some kind of coils?

Endovascular coiling.

- You remember?
- No.

Did you tell the paramedics
I had an aneurysm?

Yeah. They thought
you had a heart attack.

Lucky I was there.

I was on my way to save you.

Thanks for being late
to get on the plane.

I did get on. With Paul.

But it didn't feel right.

Maybe you're not the only one
who gets messages.

Maybe.

What happened with the plane?

How many people died?

None of them, Eli.

When I insisted on getting off, it was a
big deal because they were ready to go.

The pilots had to start all over.

They ran another safety check,
and this time they...

...found what was wrong with the plane.

A problem with the engine.
Fuel pump or something.

They said it would've
blown up in the air.

You saved everybody.

I think in our way we... we both did.

- What's going on here, Eli?
- You mean with us?

- He's awake.
- [Eli] Yeah.

One aneurysm down, one to go.

I owe you a big "I told you so."

- I know.
- You could've wound up a vegetable,

which apart from kicking your IQ up
a few points, wouldn't have been good.

You got this one to thank.

Can't imagine the ways she's gonna
hold that over my head.

- Oh, I've got a list.
- Yeah.

So, uh, it's OK.
The plane was grounded.

Happy ending.

What?

It's Diane.

She went in to surgery,
and we performed the transplant,

and we were taking her to the ICU...

When she threw an embolism.

No.

- I'm so sorry, Eli.
- That's not fair.

You did everything you could.
You couldn't have seen this coming.

[pager buzzing]

It's Diane's surgeon.
Her mother's here.

And... the heart's still viable.

You gonna be OK?

I don't know.

It seems like such a long time ago,
doesn't it?

It's beautiful.

Is this heaven?

Am I dead?

It's the Panchchuli peaks.

I thought you'd recognize them.

Could be heaven, though.

Just as beautiful.

I always wanted to see them.

- Are you my Dad, or...
- God?

It's complicated.

Don't push too hard against it.

Well, I missed you.

You've done well for yourself, Eli.
Both you and Nate.

No father could be prouder.

And I know how hard it's been.

- I know you get angry sometimes.
- Like now.

- Diane wasn't supposed to die.
- Says you.

You don't know.

You're not God, Eli.

I broke my promise to Diane,

and I might have destroyed
that girl's family... for nothing.

Not for nothing.

- For Grace.
- Grace?

- Grace.
- The... The person?

Grace is in San Francisco.

She was waiting for the right time
to reconnect with you, and then she...

Her heart gave out.

She needed a transplant.

And as it turns out,
there was a viable heart.

It was for your soul mate.

Mysterious ways.
And yours is not to reason why.

Well... Yes, it is.

I am happy for Grace.

I'm happy and I'm thankful,
but if you or God or whatever,

you want me to keep
doing this, it has to be my way.

Especially when people that I love,

people like Maggie, are on the line.

And by the way, just cut that crap out.

[chuckles]

People wonder why
God gave man free will.

Heh!

And don't think I didn't notice how you
said you loved Maggie just now.

Was this a test?

Everything's a test.

Life is a test.

You...

You, my boy,
you're passing with flying colors.

I couldn't be more proud.
