Hi, Miss Murdoch.

Oh, shit! Bye, Miss Murdoch!

Let's see.

[PANTING]

Thirty seconds slower than yesterday.

I'm sorry. I was... I was...

distracted.

Mm-hm.

Again? Again. Come on.

[♪♪♪]

KIRAN: If I could rap or something like you, I would get all 10's.

But, like, any girl under an eight is right out, you know.

I can't go below that. I'm better than that.

That's interesting... Right?

Guys. Guess what.

Is that a smoothie, man? Yeah.

It's better than soda. Nothing but empty calories.

I liked you so much better fat. It's not even funny.

Yeah. Well, your mom doesn't.

Wow. Wow. That's gross. Wow.

You still got fat-boy standards. Because you're fat.

Okay. Shut up. You're still fat.

Shut up! What's up, bro?

Big Sean tweeted that he's doing a free show

in Pittsburgh tonight!

I wish I could believe that. Okay.

Are you serious? Why didn't you say that?

Yeah. Well, I told you...

I told you. We're going, right?

Of course. What are you talking about?

That's tight.

It's not tight. Don't say it.

No, no, no.

I told my parents I would finish my college application.

Look, I need this, okay?

I really need this.

I have one year left to lose my Scarlet V

and I've struck out with every acceptable girl in this school.

Even Sarah? Even Sarah.

Yeah. Wow.

Get onboard. I need this.

I have to finish my essay. Are you kidding me?

It's the last day of school, Daryn.

They're not due until September!

Be like Sammy. Don't go to college.

Aim for the lower middle.

Darling. Thank you, my dear.

Huh.

Well, it's a good start.

But I do have some notes.

[CLEARS THROAT] Do we have to go through them right now?

Unless there's somewhere more important you have to be.

No. I, um...

There's just this concert that Sammy and Kiran invited me to.

That sounds fun.

What kind of concert?

It's just like a rap show. Rap concert.

I think he deserves a night off.

Be home by 11, son.

Absolutely. Love you, Mom. I love you.

I'll leave the notes on your desk.

DARYN: Okay. Cool.

"Cool." [CHUCKLES]

All right, I see what you did there.

DARYN: Look at all these people.

SAMMY: They should be lining up to see you, Daryn.

KIRAN: They would be lining up to see you if you record something.

You could totally be the next Big Sean.

Good God, look at these girls.

Hi.

KIRAN: Hello. Hi, how are you? I'm Kiran.

Kiran. Kiran.

She did not pay attention to me.

GUARD: That's it, no one else in.

God, we should've come two hours ago.

We'll never get in.

KIRAN: If I don't get in, I don't get groupies.

You won't anyway, what's the difference?

Shut up. You shut up.

It's gonna happen. Yo, yo.

Follow me. I got a plan.

Follow you where? I got an idea.

SAMMY: Daryn. Daryn! Where...?

Sorry. What are you doing? Get in here. Come. on.

This is how horror movies start. Be cool.

Just keep your cool. Daryn, let's just go back.

SAMMY: Daryn. Chill. Chill. Chill.

[♪♪♪]

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

It's all right. Okay. Okay.

SAMMY: Daryn, I don't think...

No. This is fate.

This is fate. Let's go. You ready? You wanna see Big Sean.

Who's trying to talk me into it? You not gonna go?

Yeah. Let's go. Let's go. Make it bigger for Sammy.

DARYN: Let's go. I'm not fat anymore. Asshole.

Oh, thanks for the help. Oh, man. Sorry.

Okay. All right.

All right. Oh, I got it. I got it.

Ready?

[GRUNTS] Oh, shit!

You've done this before, huh? KIRAN: Shut up.

Yo!

Who are you? Uh, Daryn.

I'm Daryn. Uh, are you, like, with the tour or something?

Duh. Now piss off, square.

Well, just a second because my friend here has a head injury!

Wait. What?

His mom dropped him when he was very young,

and ever since he has a condition

to where he can't see things

unless he's on top of other things.

Perfect example, this thing that you're on top of,

we'd love to watch the show with you

up there for medical reasons.

Right.

Oh, yeah. You know what I'm saying?

I can't see a damn thing!

You know what I mean?

KIRAN: I am freaking out right now, man!

I don't know where I am, Daryn. Calm down. Do you see this?

KIRAN: I need to get inside! DARYN: Come on.

The darkness scares me, Daryn.

Over here. Over here. Can you help us?

Fifty bucks. Each.

Each? We're paying for his medication and all,

we don't have that type of money.

Nice try, square. You're wearing loafers.

So either you have money or you jacked someone who did.

I'm pretty sure it's the first.

Damn it, Daryn.

All right. How about this, 60 for all of us?

All right. Show me the paper.

Deal. Now, you can see... Hey!

What...? Whoa.

You kids can't be back here.

Okay. Cool. She said it was fine.

And who is she?

Yeah. What is--? Yeah. What is your name?

Wait. Is somebody up there? You can't be up there!

Yeah? I'd like to see you Spider-Man

your Hulk ass up here and do something, all right?

What? Yeah.

Oh, shit! Come back here.

You're in for it now!

Hey. Hey, man. Leave her alone. Hands off, kid!

MAN: Hey. Hey!

Okay.

[♪♪♪]

[GROANS]

Hey, it's cool, man. I used to be fat too.

So we're basically like brothers.

Hey!

Oh, my God, Daryn! You just punched him!

Oh, you suck at punching, Daryn! My turn.

GIRL: Up here, big head!

[ALL EXCLAIM]

DARYN: Oh, my goodness. Oh, shit.

Did she just kill him? We're going to jail.

SAMMY: I don't like blood. Yo, hey!

Hey! Hey! Wait!

What's your name?

Isabelle!

Isabelle. Daryn? Oh, shit.

Daryn. You're all dead!

Shit. We're going to hell!

Daryn! Oh, shit!

Hey! Isabelle! Daryn, where are we going?

DARYN: Isabelle! Isabelle! Come here!

SAMMY: Go away!

KIRAN: You're a track star, run faster!

DARYN: Holy shit!

[CRICKETS CHIRPING]

[♪♪♪]

[ALARM CHIMING]

[CLOCK TICKING]

[RAP SONG PLAYING INDISTINCTLY OVER EARBUDS]

Yo!

Bro, what's so clutch we had to rush here?

SAMMY: Yeah, Daryn, I shouldn't be here.

Me and this place got some bad memories, so...

Yeah. I get that. But I need you guys

to take a look inside because I need some help.

I know what's inside because

I came here every day after school.

I didn't bring you here to see what flavor ice cream I want.

There's something in here that I really need you to see.

Shit! DARYN: You see? You see? Yes.

SAMMY: The scary girl from the concert. So what?

Yes.

Oh, you like her. I mean, no, no, no.

You like her. No, no. It's not like that.

Even if I did, do you think she likes me?

No. She doesn't like you.

Can we go, please? Yo, look.

In my 17 years, no girl has ever liked me.

Doesn't stop me.

Right now? Yeah, now.

I'm still in my clothes-- Doesn't matter. You look good.

KIRAN: It's all good. You're good, baby.

SAMMY: Maybe it's okay if I just get like a small cone.

But no hot fudge. Maybe some hot fudge, but no jimmies.

Once a fat kid, always a fat kid.

Welcome to The Big Chill.

What frozen moo juice do you guys want?

Um... Ahem.

You know... Wait a minute.

I know you. You're that square that owes me 60 bucks.

[SCOFFS]

Um... Yes. I remember, from the concert.

That's crazy that we're running into each other. I'm Daryn.

Great to see you. Great to see you...

You know what, how's it going?

I think we'll take three small vanilla cones.

One with jimmies and hot fudge, please.

Do you want any whipped cream with that?

Yes, please.

Seven dollars and twenty-three cents.

Thank you.

And $2.77 makes 10.

Alrighty. Don't!

Just don't tip me, okay?

If you tip me I have to sing. So don't.

Well, I gotta hear that. [COINS CLANK]

Oh-ho! We got a tip, everybody!

Okay. Great. That's fantastic. Okay. I'll be here.

What time do you get off?

Ten. Ten it is.

It's perfect. It's a date.

It's not a date. It sounds like a date.

That's my man right there. I'll see you then, good times.

Dude, that was so sick. Double scoop.

KIRAN: You're like James Bond. Can you teach me that?

ISABELLE: See you later.

I live in Wilkinsburg. Yeah?

So...

If you drive that in, you're limping out.

So I guess I'm walking you home?

Sure. Whatever.

I like your hair.

[CLEARS THROAT] So, what school do you go to?

I don't go to school.

Isn't that, like, illegal?

I don't know. Probably.

[CLEARS THROAT] Are you...?

Yeah. Hands off, square, all right?

MAN: Hey, come back here. That's my pop.

Well, I stole it! So it's mine now.

MAN: Get back here, that's my pop. Hey!

Izzy, hey, I got a free soda.

MAN: That's my pop! PHIL: Well, it's mine now.

I stole it. Because you're being a discriminating dick!

Don't you come back, you freak.

Hey, Izzy, baby. What's up, Phil?

Who's Mr. New-Sugar?

ISABELLE: His name is Square.

Hello, ma'am. Good to meet you. I'm Daryn.

Very polite.

And he's got all his teeth. That's an upgrade for you, Izzy.

Okay, you two lovebirds, I'm gonna go to work.

Leftovers in the fridge.

Thanks. Oh, and don't be too scared.

I know how she gets but even the toughest kitty cats

purr if you know just where to pet them. Boop!

What was that? Bye-bye.

Phil, come on. All right. See you later.

Bye, Izzy. Oh, my God.

So-- So is that your mom?

No.

Okay, so dad?

No? That's confusing.

This is a nice place.

It's a shit-box. I'm poor, not blind.

Um...

So I think that, you know,

I think me and you should, like, go on a proper date.

I don't date squares.

DARYN: Well, I think you should because you know,

we're smart, we're punctual,

we can pay for stuff. You can use us to draw straight lines.

Okay, fine. But just once, and mostly out of pity.

Okay. Great. Saturday, here.

I'll pick you up at 7. It's a date. It will be fun.

It's not a date. Okay. Okay. Have a good night.

In your holy and precious name we pray. Amen.

Amen. Amen.

I have some good news.

The Maxwells have invited us over to a reception on Saturday.

David Maxwell's brother

is on the board of trustees for Harvard.

Nice.

I-- I actually had plans for Saturday.

Are these plans more important than your future, son?

Nine o'clock sharp, Daryn.

Nine o'clock sharp.

Mm.

♪ I've been waiting for you All my life ♪

What's that with the clock, twitchy? Got a hot date?

No. It's just this thing that my dad is making me go to later.

But I got an early reservation at Creme Petite. So...

Nice. Who you going there with?

Well, you.

Hi, I'm Isabelle, the girl that you think is impressed

by fancy clothes, a nice car,

and a restaurant full of old people.

I'm sorry. I just-- I don't know-- I just...

I've never been out with anyone like you before.

Meaning?

Meaning someone that I really like.

[SONG PLAYING INDISTINCTLY]

Oh, shit. Okay. Fine.

Take a left at the lights. I know a good place.

Okay.

MAN: Order up!

DARYN: Is this even food?

ISABELLE: It's the best kind of food.

This...

looks like Freddy Kruger's ball sack.

Wow, delicious ball sack. You kind of catch my drift?

Yeah. Oh, wow.

Just try it, Square.

How about this? How about this? I'll try it if you tell me

why you don't go to school. Who cares?

Don't you feel it's important for your life? For the future?

What future? What do you mean?

Like, scholarship, Harvard.

Law school. Clerking. Wow.

You got it all planned out. Yeah.

I mean, me and my dad, we try to formulate a plan and just...

Wait a minute. Papa Square. That would be your rap name.

[CHUCKLES] No. I'm not... I'm not gonna be...

Makes you sound too old. Square. Son of Square.

I'm not gonna be a rapper. It's just-- It's not practical.

Ooh, ooh, Square-Squared.

Look, you're good. I've seen you do it.

It doesn't matter. Just between Honor Society,

Student Council, track...

Can you hear yourself? You're just listing off bullshit.

It's like: Blah, blah, blah.

That's not bullshit. That's my life.

I hold the state record in the 5000 meter.

Blah, blah. Is that what you really want though?

Out of life? It's not about what I want.

It's about identifying a goal

and making and reaching that goal,

making it happen, making it a reality.

You sound like a robot.

Isabelle, do you know how hard it is to get into Harvard?

They take less than 6 percent.

Less than 6 percent. That's six out of a hundred.

Do you realize how little that is? Six percent--

Greatness requires sacrifice.

You can't do what you want. Do you know that?

Why not? Prison.

Look, just because I know what I want

doesn't mean I always get it, okay?

But at least I'm honest with myself about what I want.

That's why I don't go to school, because I don't want to.

Now dig in. It's gonna get cold.

Come on.

This is just disgusting.

In your mouth.

Yeah?

[SIGHS]

There you go.

That's good. Yeah.

That's good. Look, everyone!

Square has joined the human race.

Welcome to the human race, Square.

Welcome. Welcome to the human race.

I've been in the crew... In the human race crew...

What do you actually want?

You? Not your dad, not your mom.

What do you want?

[♪♪♪]

I wanna take you out again.

Well, I can assure you, Mr. Maxwell,

that it's not like Daryn to be late.

No, not at all.

Here he is.

WOMAN: Oh, poor dear. DARYN: I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry. Car troubles.

Daryn, this is James Maxwell.

How are you, sir?

Your father told me you're quite an athlete.

Captain of the track team and he's not quite yet a senior.

Sir?

You humiliated me, son.

Don't let it happen again.

I'm sorry. You were saying? Harvard.

Who is she? Who is who?

She's just a girl.

Does this girl have a name? Isabelle.

Here's the thing, son.

School has started, which means summer is over.

This little fling of yours

is starting to become a real distraction.

What does greatness require?

Sacrifice. Sacrifice, son.

Sacrifice.

[SIGHS] Do you really think that was necessary?

You didn't see her. Believe me, a girl like this has no future.

It's better it ended now.

I wish my dad was a drag queen.

Phil's cool but he's not my dad.

I never really knew my father. What about your mom?

Well, she left when I was 6.

Classic Wilkinsburg junkie.

Where is she now?

Who cares?

Phil was babysitting and just, you know, kept on babysitting.

So are you thirsty at all? What?

Just because-- I could just use some water

because I get thirsty.

you know, getting up in me or whatever.

ISABELLE: Oh. Yeah, I do.

I like to imagine that I'm floating on the waves.

Just laying back and letting the whole ocean lift you up.

It's probably the closest I'll ever get though.

A bunch of crappy postcards.

I mean, we could just go to the beach though.

Yeah, sure.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. No, but we could really go.

We're not dating, Daryn.

Then what are we doing? We're hanging out.

That's what dating is.

Is there another guy? No.

You have some hidden boyfriend? There's not another guy.

Do you like me? We've been hanging out for two months.

What? Okay. Well, I don't care because I love you.

Oh, my God. Please. What do you mean?

Okay. Please. I can't.

Everywhere I look, I see you.

No. Yeah, I know. I just felt like...

SAMMY: "Shaving my shit." What was that?

You really shave that shit?

KIRAN: Yeah. Every other week. SAMMY: Why?

KIRAN: Because my mom says it adds...

SAMMY: Your mom? Did you just say your--? Dude.

You have this weird relationship with your mom.

KIRAN: We're not that close.

It's still too early but you never know.

You're gonna get in, son.

You're gonna get in. It's just a formality.

Izzy, I know it sounds crazy but I love you. I'm serious.

And I don't care if you only have a year to live,

if it's the rest of your life then it's everything to me!

Izzy, I have a plan. I have a plan, Izzy.

We're gonna live our whole life, all the milestones.

Everything that we can think of.

A full, a whole, a complete life.

All in this year. Me and you.

Go away, Daryn, okay? I don't believe in happy endings.

Well, believe in me, Iz.

I'm serious about this, Izzy.

I think this is a really, really good idea.

It's gonna be like freaking Disneyland.

I don't even know what that means. And I'm...

Izzy, I know it's hard to believe but I love you.

I'm dead serious and...

One condition.

Anything.

You have to stop saying I love you.

Everybody thinks they're in love

None. There's no burial grounds here.

Yes, I did. I must be rubbing off on you.

Thank you.

Let me get this for you.

Xavier and I, we went to Wilkinsburg High School,

and then we moved into this tiny, shabby studio apartment

about two blocks away from the tap house.

That place is now the Club Mirella,

and shield your eyes for you are gazing upon their headliner.

Oh, no applause, please. Hey, stop that.

Nasty girl. I told you, no applause.

Isabelle, you must be very proud of your father.

I don't have a father.

I'm more of a super-fun au pair.

Yeah. Oh.

Well, you'll have to get us tickets.

I can't believe you guys are from Wilkinsburg.

Oh, yes. Xavier was a janitor, and then he bought the company.

I believe the proper term is custodial attendant.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

PHIL: From Wilkinsburg to all this.

That is very inspirational. Well, we're very blessed.

What we did is we worked hard.

Wilkinsburg is no place to raise a child.

Oh, I don't know. You turned out just fine, diva.

You're just saying that because

you see the house we live in now.

You didn't see the toilets I had to clean,

or the days we went hungry.

It wasn't that bad, Xavier.

Nights sitting in a chair with a broom,

keeping the rats out of Daryn's crib.

I don't remember any of that.

Good. It's because we made a plan, son.

Yeah, but sometimes, bad shit just happens.

I mean, some stuff you can't keep away with a broom, right?

Apparently not.

You know, I just love these candlesticks. Are they silver?

CATHERINE: Actually, I believe those are pewter.

So, Isabelle, where do you go to school?

She's homeschooled, actually.

XAVIER: Hmm.

What about college?

I hadn't given it much thought yet.

Well, not everybody is destined for higher education.

I actually couldn't agree more.

I think the world could do with a few less

fancy degrees and a few more artists.

XAVIER: Who live in their parents' basements.

Like half of all college grads?

Dessert?

Daryn is destined to do great things.

Maybe he's already doing great things.

The first steps to any plan is identifying a proper goal.

Harvard undergraduate first.

Then, Yale Law.

I just got exhausted even listening to that shit.

Not everybody can be a super-fun au pair.

Maybe that's enough, Xavier.

I'm his father, and he is my son. Dad.

We have a responsibility to each other.

He puts his faith in me, and I protect him.

From what, zombies?

No, from you. Excuse you!

Girls like you, girls your type. DARYN: Dad.

I am so sorry. Dad!

...distraction that you've become in his life.

Dad, I got waitlisted!

Excuse me?

Well, that's not a no, so let's remain positive.

When did you find this out?

A week or two ago.

You're just telling me this now?

I'm sure he had a reason. Stop coddling him!

Don't you see he's throwing his life away for you?

How can you be this selfish?

I mean, there's no future here.

PHIL: Okay, enough. Let's go. We're going.

CATHERINE: I am really sorry.

Stand up. Here we go, sweetheart.

I can eat like a person, but I can also be an asshole.

I know that greatness requires

sacrifice, hard work, and dedication,

but I also know that clouds are for cupids.

And some things you just can't keep away with a broom.

And I know that I have to be true to myself

before I can be true to her, but...

she's not here right now.

I'm sorry. I've wasted your time, sir. So I'm gonna go.

And nice to see you again, Daryn.

but that was so stupid, and I should have stood up for you.

Izzy. You're an asshole.

Izzy. That's my mom.

That's your mom. What is wrong with you?

You're so stupid.

Why? Why did you do this? I thought...

I could kill you right now. How did you even find her?

The postcards were a start. But Sammy and Kiran helped a lot.

Oh, my God, I'm gonna kill them, and then, I'm gonna kill you.

She looks old.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I think you should go talk to her.

What?

What am I gonna say? I mean, you're Isabelle,

you can do anything.

And I'm gonna be right here.

Okay?

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

Balls, balls, balls... Balls, balls, balls...

Hi.

Isabelle?

What are you doing here?

[♪♪♪]

GIRL: Mommy?

Go inside. Mommy will be right in in a minute.

Go inside, baby.

MAN: Is that you, Amanda?

You have to go.

Please.

GIRL: Mommy, who is that?

Come on, baby.

I'll make you a snack, okay? Good girl.

Inside.

Let's go.

[ENGINE STARTS]

I didn't...

Daryn, please don't, just...

I didn't... Stop talking.

[EXHALES HEAVILY] Izzy...

In an interview, Sean says that sometimes

it's not the destination, it's the journey that...

Really, Daryn? You are throwing Big Sean

at my face right now? Are you joking?

Are you really doing that? What's wrong? What did I do?

You don't even-- I'm so stupid.

I'm so stupid! Why did I do that?

Izzy! Calm down! You're gonna hurt yourself.

Don't touch me! Don't ever touch me again!

You are disgusting.

You're just like everybody else.

What did I do? You promised!

You promised and you lied to me! You're a liar.

I lied to you? I saw you, Daryn.

I saw you with Big Sean.

Why did I trust you? Get me out of the car.

Let me out of the car!

Stop the car, I'm getting out!

Get off me. What are you doing?

Let me out of the goddamn car!

Get me out of this car! We're in the middle of a--

Izzy, watch out!

Are you okay...?

Isabelle, wait.

Izzy!

Isabelle, wait.

I'm sorry!

Isabelle.

Okay, I'm sorry, I didn't give it to him.

I lied. All right? What if he didn't like it?

What if he laughed at me? I chickened out.

I'm sorry, Isabelle.

[CRYING] She wanted to be a mom, but she didn't wanna be my mom.

[CRYING]

What's wrong with me? There's nothing wrong with you.

You gotta go. You gotta get away from me--

Please go. There's nothing wrong with you.

There's nothing wrong with you.

Izzy! Izzy! Izzy!

What's going on? Izzy! Somebody help us! Please!

Look, we're at the beach. Izzy, we're at the beach.

We're here. Look. We got the sand

all around us and everything.

It's just like your dream. It's just like your dream.

[♪♪♪]

[BREATHING SHALLOWLY]

The ovarian tumor has metastasized.

It's in her blood. In her organs.

Here's the schedule for her meds. She's gotta keep to it.

What about chemo?

That's done.

It isn't about treatment anymore. It's about management.

Managing her pain.

Managing your expectations.

But she wasn't in any pain.

I imagine she was hiding just how much pain she was in.

PHIL: So you're leaving?

Call me if you have any questions. I'm sorry.

Sammy, if you do a grocery run on Wednesday

that will give me time to clean

while the hospice worker is here.

Kiran, you're on pharmacy duty.

I'll call in the orders, you pick them up.

Sure. Thank you, guys.

I really appreciate it. No problem.

It's mine.

Why are you still here?

Hey, baby.

The instructions say that you can't take

your medication on an empty stomach.

So I made some pancakes for you.

I thought it would be the best--

All right.

Good thing I made more.

They'll end up on the floor too.

You know what, baby? I love making pancakes.

I almost went to culinary school, okay?

So I'm just gonna do my training

in here right now, just all the blades:

[IMITATES BLADES CHOPPING] Like I'm a freaking ninja...

[♪♪♪]

ISABELLE: So there was this douchebag security guard

and Daryn punched him in the face.

CATHERINE: I don't believe you.

My baby did not do that. He is not a fighter.

ISABELLE: I promise you he did. He was just really bad at it.

Mom? Good morning.

What are you doing here?

Well, a friend gave me VIP tickets to Club Mirella,

and I couldn't resist. So here I am.

So the three of us have decided

that you really need to take a day off.

Hang with Sammy and Kiran, do something.

Your mother will take care of Izzy when I go to work.

Seriously, I promise I'll be fine.

Are you sure? Yes, I'm sure.

Will you do me one favor though? Anything.

You really need to shower. You smell so bad.

I thought that was me. DARYN: That's enough. Come on.

Thank you so much for allowing me to come back.

I really appreciate it. All good. All good.

What you got for me? Something. But it's rough.

That's more than most people got.

[♪♪♪]

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

[OBJECT CLATTERS]

CATHERINE: Oh, my God! Isabelle!

Oh, my God. Mom?

She's bleeding from her mouth! Oh, God.

Izzy!

Call 911. Call 911 right now! Where's my phone?

Let's get you on your side.

Yes, spit it out. Good girl.

CATHERINE: Is she breathing? Yes, she's breathing.

Everything's gonna be okay. Everything's gonna be okay.

CATHERINE: We have an emergency. Yes. 440 Holland...

Everything's gonna be okay. Everything's gonna be fine.

Everything's gonna be fine. It's gonna be okay.

Everything's gonna be fine.

[♪♪♪]

How is she? She's stable. She's resting now.

Isabelle's teratoma has caused fluid

to build up in her abdominal cavity.

Vomiting is a common symptom.

Okay. Okay. So, what's next?

We're gonna adjust her medication.

Mm-hm. And then what? Pardon?

After you adjust her medication, then what?

That's all we can do for such a young...

What do you mean that's all you can do?

This is all we can do for a patient as advanced as Isabelle.

The cancer has spread through her entire body.

Her organs are shutting down.

It's just a matter of weeks now. Sorry.

Makes no sense at all. That makes no sense, okay?

We need new doctors. We need new everything! Where is she?

Isabelle! Isabelle! We're going!

We're leaving now because they don't know

what the fuck they're doing in this place! Ah!

Izzy! Izzy! Baby!

Isabelle! Daryn.

Isabelle! You'd still be okay right now

if I didn't go anywhere!

No! Mom! Not right now!

Listen to me! Not right now!

Stop it!

[♪♪♪]

She is going to die.

Why would you say that? Because that is the truth!

[SOBBING] That is the truth!

You have done everything that you can do for her, Daryn.

She's not gonna die! She's not gonna die!

She's not gonna die!

Stop it.

I can't breathe. Stop it.

[♪♪♪]

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Hey, baby.

I have somebody here to see you.

Is it Make-A-Wish?

Because there's some weird shit I still want.

[BREATHING RASPILY]

WOMAN: Iz?

[♪♪♪]

Iz, please.

Mom.

I'm sorry.

I'm so, so sorry.

ISABELLE: She was ashamed...

and afraid that she would lose her new family.

That's why she didn't come back after she got clean.

Why did you make her go?

Because there's some shit

you just don't get to come back from.

Come on, baby.

[GRUNTS]

But I got to say goodbye.

Thank you.

Close your eyes.

I'll never forget you, Square.

Isabelle?

Isabelle...

Izzy...

Izzy.

Izzy? Isabelle?

Baby.

Baby, are you okay?

No. What do you mean--?

This... What do you need?

[RASPING] This is the last milestone.

No. No, baby. It's okay.

Your plan worked.

[♪♪♪]

You gave me my happily ever after.

Izzy...

I know I shouldn't say this...

I love you too, Square.

Isabelle?

Izzy...

Izzy. Izzy.

Baby. Izzy.

Izzy.

Baby.

I'm sorry, son.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, man. Funerals suck.

Oh. By the way...

you graduated today.

I mean, your GPA is kind of in the shitter.

But don't worry. You and Sammy can...

not go to college together. Or something.

Or you could apply to Pitt. I mean they took me, so...

Wait, you got into college? Yeah.

What? Yeah.

I brought my grades up and...

Don't make it weird, man. No. You...

You did good, fat boy. You did good.

Thank you.

You deserve it.

So, what are you gonna do?

[SIGHS]

Where did you get this rust-bucket?

Sammy gave me a real good price on it.

What are you gonna do when you get to New York?

Make music.

See what happens.

Hm. Well, I got you this.

Help you to stay organized.

[CHUCKLES]

I put a couple of things on your calendar.

There it is. [CATHERINE CHUCKLES]

I love you. I love you.

I'll see you soon. Yeah.

Are you ready for this?

I thought so.

[PHONE CHIMES]

DJ: ...never gotten a request quite like this one before,

it comes from a dying girl named Isabelle.

I'm gonna have to clean some of the language up

because my girl can curse.

So Isabelle writes:

"Everybody thinks that dying...

ISABELLE: ...teaches you something about life,

but they're wrong.

The only way to learn about life is by living.

And I've learned that every moment is your moment.

Sometimes the moments are messy,

sometimes they're beautiful,

or scary, or just plain weird.

But they're all yours.

Cherish them.

Living isn't easy.

But if you can manage to look past your own fears

and everyone else's expectations,

the reward is your life.

And in my life?

[♪♪♪]

I was loved.

So, Daryn, one more?

DJ: She also sent me this track and told me

I had to play it or else she would haunt me.
