Music's a powerful thing.

A song can change your mood,

make a memory.

One song can change your whole

life.

oh, god! Oh! Help me!

Hey, George, you okay?

Danny, thank you, man.

It's really a mess, huh?

Yeah.

The wind's been... the wind's

been acting up today.

Got to be careful out here.

Well, I will.

Um, you want a journal today?

Got to keep up with the times.

Of course.

Here you go.

Thank you.

All right, take care.

Have a good day.

Thank you.

oh, Danny boy, I hate to

rain on your parade, but the

pipes are calling, we open in

10, and the toilets are clogged

again.

Who did it this time?

This time it was me.

But I got to take out the trash

and wipe down the tables and do

some other stuff, so you don't

mind, right?

No, no. I'll take care of it.

Thanks, buddy.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Waiter?

Yeah.

Give it.

Oh, Danny boy.

Yeah?

Here you go.

I'm sorry it's not more, but

when things pick up, you know...

Don't worry about it.

Danny, I know you don't

normally work on the weekend.

I hate to ask you, but i'm

short-staffed.

What time do you need me?

Come in a little later, like

11:00.

Yeah, sure.

Thank you, Danny boy.

All right, then I'll see you

tomorrow.

Okay.

See you tomorrow?

Yeah. Have a good night.

You too.

Is someone's birthday coming

up?

Couple more months, man.

How you gonna drop

hard-earned cash on a pile of

used crap?

What would you spend it on?

Knicks tickets.

I been saving up... going

courtside, baby.

Oh, yeah, much better.

Yeah, it is.

And what do you do when the

game's over?

What do you mean? I go home.

Dude, that pile of used crap

in there can be used to record

something that could last

forever, I mean, that people

could listen to for years after

you're long gone.

Who wants crap to last

forever?

Whatever.

No, really, that's a good

question.

Music school?

You have got to be kidding me.

May I take your order?

Yes, she'll have the chicken

Caesar salad, no croutons, and

we will share the chicken

parmesan.

Did you get that?

Oh, uh, yeah, sorry.

She'll have the, um...

I'm sorry.

Can you repeat that, please?

Yes, she will have the

chicken Caesar salad, without

croutons, and he and I will

share the chicken parmesan.

Got it?

Uh, soup or salad?

Excuse me?

The chicken parmesan... it

comes with either soup or salad.

What kind of soups?

Chicken noodle...

That'll do.

That's a lot of chicken.

And a round of waters.

Uh, sure.

Be right back with your order,

ma'am.

Can't even take an order.

See?

Now, that's the reason you have

to get a good education.

Dude, what are you doing?

If Tony sees you, he's gonna

kill you.

Relax, brother.

I only took a couple.

Besides, Tony's gonna be working

for me one day.

Oh, really?

Damn right.

I'm gonna own this place and

call it Roger's.

How was it?

Fine. We'll take the check.

Sure, I'll be right back with

that.

Excuse me. You forgot this.

Ariana.

Ariana.

"You forgot this"?

Real smooth, Danny boy.

"You forgot to say a word to

me..."

There's at least 5, maybe 10 hot

chicks walking this place every

day, and you're stuck on one.

It's not the same, man.

She's different.

Yeah, she ain't called you.

Look... maybe she's giving it

time, all right?

I mean, isn't there like some

sort of rule or something, like

you can't call the guy for a

certain amount of time after

getting his number?

Yeah, but that's the two-day

rule.

Two days?

Well, although that's common,

some chicks do follow a

three-day rule.

I think it depends on their

menstrual cycle or something.

Why?

How long has it been, again?

About two weeks.

What?

You telling me it's been two

weeks since you saw this chick?

Okay, look... I'm with you on

the whole "haven't gotten any in

awhile, getting really

desperate" thing.

Really, I am.

But, dude, it is time to move

on.

Dude, do you always eat like

that?

Like what?

Hi, there.

Back again?

So, why didn't you call?

No, no, you can tell me.

I won't say anything.

You're not interested, right?

And then, on the slight off

chance that you are interested,

I mean, two weeks?

It's kind of abusing the two-day

rule, don't you think, even if

it is a menstrual thing?

He's in the kitchen.

Yeah. Yeah, I'll go get him.

Dude, she's here.

Well, yes.

Yes, she's here, but, Danny, I

got to tell you something...

Table 5.

No, Danny boy.

Hi.

Back for some more great food?

Then, um... then why are you

back?

You never called.

Why not?

One of my mom's friends was

deaf.

All I know is my name.

So, do you think I could get

your e-mail?

Damn, dude, you have got to

get you a maid.

Or a girlfriend.

Movies it is.

What about her hearing?

"I read lips when I can, and

when I can't, I enjoy the

visual.

It's no different from my normal

life."

So, did you like it?

You know, you can talk.

I'm sure I'll be able to

understand.

You know what? Are you hungry?

Come on.

So, tell me more about yourself.

I really don't know anything

yet.

Yeah.

Spaghetti and meatballs...

That's my favorite, too.

Wait.

You've never driven a car

before?

We're gonna have to work on

that.

Music... but... but how...

I'm sorry about your dad.

Oh, there's more?

You're cute, too.

So, how do you, you know, like,

talk to other people?

You know, like your family?

But then how do you say what you

want to say?

What about, like, sign language?

So, you don't know any?

Oh, so then you learned as an

adult.

Well, I think it's really cute

when you do that.

Hey, can I show you something?

Come on.

This is why I work here.

I play it every day and night.

No.

No, but I do want my songs to be

famous.

Yeah, yeah, I taught myself how

to play when I was 12, and as

soon as I learned the basics, I

just started writing my own

stuff.

I'm saving up to make a demo,

but I haven't been able to write

much lately.

Here.

No, come on. It's okay.

Watch.

Now, you do that part, and I'll

do the right-hand part.

Ready?

One, two...

What do you think?

I know, but it was fun,

right?

So, how'd she lose her

hearing?

Oh, meningitis, actually...

Got it from her dad.

Couldn't afford the right

treatment, and he ended up dying

right in front of her when she

was 5.

Kind of crazy.

Reminded me of my mom's passing,

you know?

I'd never wish that on anybody.

Wow.

You guys really got to know each

other.

You have no idea.

Really?

She stay the whole night?

What? No.

Wow, you didn't even let her

stay?

You just did your thing and told

her to bounce.

Dude, I didn't sleep with

her.

Then what did you do with

her?

I don't know.

We laughed, ate, talked.

Whoa.

You're kidding me, right?

I mean, how'd you even do that?

Do what?

Talk.

It was interesting.

I'm gonna need to learn sign

language.

Sign language?

Yeah.

But we have so much in common.

Do you know that she even liked

music when she was a kid?

Danny, I know you like this

girl.

Don't you think you're getting

just a little too attached too

soon?

I mean, have you even thought

about how hard it's gonna be to

communicate on a full-time

basis?

I told you, man... I'm gonna

learn sign language.

I'm just saying there's gonna

be things you're not gonna be

able to say to each other, even

with sign language.

And then you got her friends.

And you know when you date a

girl, you also date her friends,

right?

Rog.

Believe me... Diane's friends

are always up my ass.

Rog, you're rambling.

Hey, all I'm saying is that

there's a lot to think about

here.

So, just do that.

Think about it.

Look, man... I'm not gonna

miss out on something that could

be great just 'cause it might

also be hard.

You look gorgeous.

So do you.

So, what looks good?

This Halibut sounds terrific.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I mean she says...

Spaghetti and meatballs?

Come on, honey.

This is a fancy restaurant.

No, no, no, that's...

That's great.

So, how is it that you can

afford this place?

Excuse me?

No, I just... I know that

that's a question that her

mother would ask.

Uh, lots of hard work.

Doing what?

Waiting tables.

Oh, boy.

Her mother is not gonna like

that.

You know, maybe you could

just... I don't know...

Interpret for now, you know,

until I'm ready to meet the

whole family.

Doubt that'll happen.

Do you not like wine?

She's never drank before,

fool.

Not even wine?

Her mother's gonna love this.

She likes the wine.

Oh, you are just on a roll

with the Scott family, aren't

you?

De-virginizing their young

daughter to the evils of

alcohol... check.

She's 21 years old.

And?

And she's never had a drink

before, not even for her 21st

birthday.

She's never had sex before,

either.

You gonna take that from her,

too?

Virginity thief... check.

Hey, come on.

Don't you think you're keeping

some tight reins?

Hey, do you want to go out

without...?

That's a big check.

I don't think so.

You know that your mother would

not approve.

Come on.

She's old enough to make her

own decisions.

You ready?

[ Less than Jake's "the science

of selling yourself short"

Danny boy.

Hey, what's up?

Welcome to your official 21st

birthday party.

Hey, everybody, it's Ariana's

21st birthday.

is it really your 21st

birthday?

it is now.

cheers!

together: Chug!

Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!

Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!

Later, guys.

Bye!

Bye!

You are drunk.

Hey, what's the matter?

You all right?

You okay?

Come on. Let's get you home.

My place is tiny.

And messy.

You sure?

All right.

Oh, come on.

You can do better than that.

The whole thing.

Okay, uh...

Why don't you change into these?

I think it's time for bed.

Good night.

Good night, Princess.

Morning, sunshine.

This is for you.

Congratulations... your first

hangover... the only sign of a

truly successful 21st birthday.

Later, man.

Whoa! Whoa!

whoa! Ohh!

all right, let's find an

answer to the age-old

philosophical question of "if a

tree falls in the woods and no

one is there to hear it, does

it make a sound?"

Thoughts, anyone?

Oh, come on, people.

Mr. Walker?

Aw.

Look... obviously, it made a

sound.

Yeah? How do you know?

What do you mean, how do I

know?

It fell, so it made a sound.

But no one was there to hear

it.

So, if I fart and no one else

is around to hear it...

did it make a sound?

He said, "when I

fart."

Well, you were there to hear

it, and you were there to smell

it, so...

In the back there?

You know, it depends on the

meaning of the word "sound."

Is it mental or physical?

If we define it as purely

physical, then it means a

pattern of vibrations in the

air.

But sound can also be mental.

In that case, it would be

defined as vibrations, but how

our mind interprets the things

we hear.

So, if you think that sound is

physical, then, yes, it made a

sound.

But if, to you, sound is mental,

then it didn't.

Very good, miss Scott.

You see? Not so obvious, is it?

Either way, she wouldn't hear

it.

Oh, hold on.

How the heck could she hear

that?

Hey.

You okay?

Are you okay?

It looks like we're in two

classes together.

I'm Nicole.

You were really great in there.

You can't listen to Mitch.

He's always a jerk.

But I have a feeling he won't be

talking much in that class

anymore.

Aw.

Come here. Come here.

Come on.

Let's get back in there.

Oh, it's my mom.

She passed away four years ago.

You know, every day at work, I

hear people complain about the

silliest things.

I was there with her through

everything, all five years that

she fought the cancer.

Never heard her complain once.

But I did.

Every day she'd wake up and say,

"it's a great day to be alive."

And I remember I just looked at

her and thought, "there must be

a heaven 'cause I just saw it in

her smile."

She was always there for me.

Still is.

It's from her favorite sweater.

Whenever I need her, I just rub

it, and she gives me strength.

Of course.

Did your dad write it, too?

Yeah. It's okay.

Can I try?

Yeah?

Well, it's close, anyway.

You loved your dad very much,

didn't you?

"Sam"? Your dad called you that?

It's cute. I like it.

Do you like "Sam" better?

Well, I think you're beautiful,

Sam.

Sounds good.

Oh, sorry, Tony.

I-I didn't know you were there.

You write that?

Yeah, um...

I mean, I was just messing

around.

How'd you like to have a

little concert... you know,

something small right here in

the cafe?

You play some of your songs,

invite some of your friends.

Really? I mean, are you sure?

Let's give it a shot.

This music thing... it could be

good for business.

Thanks, Tony, yeah.

Night, Danny boy.

Good night.

And thanks!

So, what are you and Danny

gonna do this summer?

What? What's going on?

Hang on.

You're not even packed yet.

When are they coming to pick you

up?

Two weeks?

Are you crazy?

What if your mom finds out?

Ooh.

I'm gonna miss you.

It was my mom's.

No, it's okay.

Do you like it?

You like it?

What's the matter?

You can't worry about her.

It's really not my place to

be saying anything, even now.

I just thought that since it was

getting so serious...

Serious?

What do you mean by that?

Well... they're completely in

love.

They talk to each other only in

sign language now...

She's using sign language

with him?

See?

Now, was that so bad?

Interview? With who?

Why would you want an internship

with an accounting firm?

And that's great for certain

people, but I've known you long

enough to know that that's not

what you want to do.

Really?

So, your whole life, you grew up

dreaming about crunching

numbers?

Well, what, then?

When you were a kid, what was

the one thing that you dreamt

about every night when you went

to sleep?

See? I knew it.

Now, what happened?

Why aren't you playing a concert

for a big audience?

Whoa, come on. Hold on a second.

That... that doesn't

mean that you can't still play.

I mean, look at Beethoven.

You can do whatever you want to

do.

What's wrong with the way that I

live?

No, go ahead.

Tell me.

You know what I think?

I think you're scared.

No, you are.

You're scared... not of your

mother or... or marianne or

anyone else.

You're scared of yourself,

scared to be yourself.

Life's too short to waste time

living for someone else, Sam.

Hey, come on.

Come on.

I will not let you jeopardize

her future.

She has a handicap.

Mrs. Scott, she is a very

capable young woman.

The city is...

Bye.

Hey, Greg, do you know if

Ariana's in her dorm room?

I haven't seen her.

Let me check.

Looks like she left last night,

moved out for the summer.

Wait. Are you sure?

She signed out at 11:27 P.M.

All right. Thanks, Greg.

Hey, you have a great summer,

Danny.

Yeah, you too.

That's the last time you hide

something from me.

You will not see him, speak to

him, or even think about him

ever again.

I didn't spend all this time and

effort raising you so you could

run off with some deadbeat

waiter.

No!

You're not getting this back

until you go back to school next

fall.

No!

Put this where she can't find

it.

Hide something from me again,

and you find another job.

get rid of it, like the

others.

I read the e-mail.

You know, sometimes I forget

what it was like for me growing

up.

I don't think we did your 21st

birthday right.

I'd like another chance.

Shall we go dress shopping?

Yeah, I don't know what's

going on.

She's not responding to any of

my messages.

What? You mean she's signed

on?

Yeah, don't you see her?

Here... hang on.

Let me try and call her house.

So, you know where she lives?

Yeah.

I wouldn't go doing anything

like...

Look, Nicole... I'm worried,

okay?

I haven't seen or heard from her

in over a month.

I'm not gonna lose her. Please.

Ariana's not here.

I'm looking for Sam.

She's not here, either.

Still on vacation?

She doesn't want to see you.

Let her tell me that.

Do you not want to see me?

I don't understand.

Security... time for you to

leave, sir.

No, I'm not going anywhere

until she tells me to.

Get that man out of my home.

Come on.

No, come on. Sam!

Sam, come on!

Sam!

Sam! Ohh!

Sam!

Come on!

Sam!

Sam!

Sam!

Walk away. Go.

Ariana, come meet the

richardsons.

This is Hank, David's friend

from work, and this is Tyler,

his gorgeous and successful son.

Mrs. Scott, you're too much.

It's a pleasure

meeting you.

Ariana, why don't you take

Tyler and show him around

upstairs, while I make coffee

for Hank and me?

Don't go. Hmm?

Not yet.

Hey.

Don't... ohh!

I'm not sure what happened,

Mrs. Scott.

I guess she just needed some

time alone.

I'm so sorry, Tyler.

Sometimes it takes awhile for

her to warm up to people, with

her condition.

But I'm sure she'll come around.

Not a problem, Mrs. Scott.

I'm sure she will.

Such a gentleman.

Thanks again for inviting us.

See you later.

Don't you ever embarrass me

like that again.

You got to let her go, Danny.

Sometimes you care about

someone, and for whatever

reason, they don't feel the same

way.

And there is nothing you can do.

You might not want to hear this,

but there's a lot of girls out

there you can fall in love with.

The right one will come along,

but you can't force it.

everything inside me tells me

that she is the right one.

Hey, she isn't the right one

if she doesn't appreciate you.

Order's up.

come on, now.

Who's the one that told me

there's always some good that

can come out of everything?

Yeah, but sometimes it's

harder to see than others.

just think about all the

great music you got to write.

There's no better inspiration

than love... And pain.

Yeah.

and I don't know.

It might be a waste of time, but

do you think you could ask Sam

to come?

It would really mean a lot if

she was there.

She'll be there.

everyone told us how to live our

and now tears fall from your

understand that I want to be

It was for your own

protection.

Now, don't get irrational.

You can't end up with someone

like that.

You'll thank me later.

You were supposed to get rid of

them.

I didn't think she'd...

Just fix it.

Um, Mrs. Scott, Ariana and I

were wondering if maybe we could

walk around some of the stores

on greenwich Avenue before the

the movie?

Hi.

Hi.

Have fun.

Thanks, Mrs. Scott.

more people.

Oh, my god. Hello.

We have to get chairs, more

chairs.

Do we have more chairs

downstairs?

My god, that is great!

Thank you. Thank you.

Congratulations.

I heard from back there.

You were really, really good.

Thanks.

I appreciate you coming.

You know, Sam really wanted

to be here.

She tried her best, too.

We even got to the train

station...

No, you know, I'm just...

I'm a little sick of hearing

that.

She's old enough to make her own

decisions.

If she wanted to be here, she

would have been.

Danny. Danny.

I'll take care of it.

Danny boy.

Hey, Tony.

Anytime you want to have a

concert like that again, you

just tell me.

We nearly did triple our

business last night.

Really?

Well, you got chops, kid.

Oh, god.

Uh, yes, we'll have an order

of chicken wings, please, to

start and a round of water.

I'm so sorry, sir.

Well, the service here is

great.

Ariana, what are you doing?

What are you... what are you

doing?

Is everything all right?

Everything is fine.

She's just acting up.

She's normally a very sweet

girl.

Aah!

Get in the car.

Get in the car.

Ariana, damn it.

It's the moms, bro.

I'm telling you... she's doing

all of this.

I saw Sam smack the hell out of

her moms a second ago.

We all did.

Sam's a mess.

She went running off after you.

She still loves you, man.

Man, what happened to I got

to let her go, "there's a whole

bunch of girls that you can fall

in love with," and all that crap

you told me?

Forget what I said, okay?

I was wrong.

It could be her, bro.

Sam could be the one.

Look... you got something most

of us can only dream about.

You can't let that get away.

She went running off that way.

She's probably headed towards

your apartment.

Should I...?

Go. Run.

I'll cover your shift.

Don't let her get away!

They said it would

permanently damage your ears.

My ears are ruined.

How dare you make that decision

without telling me?

It's not your decision to make.

It's mine. It's my life, mom.

And I want to hear.

All you ever wanted to do was

control me.

That's why you never learned

sign language.

That's why I needed this stupid

interpreter.

And that's why you never told me

about this surgery.

You don't want me to hear again.

You don't want to lose your

control.

Well, you just lost it.

I don't need an interpreter

anymore.

And I don't need you anymore.

Oh, you need me more than

ever.

Who's gonna support you... your

loser boyfriend?

Who's gonna pay for your

college?

I'm not going back to

college.

I'm going to study music.

Always been a dreamer, just like

your father.

That's right...'Cause dreams

come true, mom, if you fight for

them.

Dad knew that.

Despite all you did to stop it,

I'm in love and I'm going to

hear again and I'm going to play

music just like dad.

And there is nothing you can do

to stop me anymore!

Where the hell are you going?

To correct a mistake I made a

long time ago.

You know, she's 21 years old.

Loosen the reins a little.

Get in that car, and you're

fired.

I quit.

Marianne, get back here.

That's my daughter.

She doesn't even know how to

drive.

Want a beer?

You buy a paper every day, don't

you?

Yeah.

And you throw it out every

night?

Yep.

Ever read it?

Nope.

Then why do you buy it?

I like the guy who sells

them.

You like the guy who sells them.

Yeah... George.

He could be out there begging

for change, but he's not.

He's selling papers.

And no one supports him.

I mean, no one wants to buy a

paper from a guy that looks the

way he does.

They'd rather get it from a

store or a newsstand or one of

those dispensers or something.

But at the end of the day, it's

the same paper.

Same paper, huh?

Got a sports section?

I don't think so.

Entertainment?

I don't know.

Well, I'll put it to use.

Hey, man, give it a courtesy

flush this time.

Yeah, yeah.

No, no, seriously, dude.

Hey, the market's down 300

points, just like my turd in the

crapper.

Very often, there are no

symptoms.

All of a sudden, there's a

seizure, and then...

But there's... there's got to

be some treatment, something.

You came.

It's good to see you up

again.

Danny, I'm Dr. Frazier.

Your seizure was due to the

spreading of an advanced stage

of glioblastoma multiforme, a

primary brain tumor.

This type of cancer is very

difficult to treat, especially

when deeply rooted.

Now, chemo and radiation

treatments can improve health

for a number of months, but

unfortunately this cancer seems

to relapse in almost all cases.

There's an off-label drug on the

market.

It hasn't passed fda approval.

It isn't supported by

insurance-company policies.

it's very expensive, but it

might buy some...

How much time?

It depends.

At this stage, it could be

several months... Or days.

Time for your next session.

I'm done.

Not yet, Mr. Foster.

Chemo can take several session...

I'm done.

You know, when I was 10, my

mom... she brought home a nest

of duck eggs she found under

this bridge.

I looked after them for awhile,

but... but she wouldn't let me

keep them.

I remember the day we let them

go.

I was pretty upset.

But, you know, it ended up being

the most amazing part.

You see, they didn't need me

anymore.

As soon as they spread their

wings, they were free.

They owned the sky.

The very next year, I saw a

group of young ducks under the

bridge.

They came back... Every year.

There's just two left now.

Okay, Danny, now it's our

turn to guess what the girls

would say.

Girls, what's one thing you

could always use more of?

Everyone ready?

Babe?

Shoes.

Both: Shoes!

I know your expensive taste.

Yes, you do.

Sam, it's your turn.

"Great books."

"Love."

What?

Danny, that's not how you play

the game, man.

What do you mean?

It's supposed to be something

like shoes or books or your

favorite food... something fun.

But love's

better than all that.

That's not the point, man.

It's supposed to be fun.

You ch...

Come on. We're having fun.

That's our point.

Put a smile on your face.

All right. Next question.

[ Indistinct speaking over

I'll get to see her again

soon.

Oh, it's okay.

I'm gonna be fine.

You know what?

I'm the luckiest guy in the

world.

I mean, how many people can say

that they've truly been in love,

that they met the love of their

lives?

I want you to promise me

something, Sam.

Promise me that... whatever

happens... you listen to

yourself before anyone else...

To your heart.

And I want you to go through

with the surgery.

Wait for what?

I want to be there.

I want to...

I want to be there when you hear

the world again for the first

time.

I want to hear your beautiful

voice.

You can hear it now.

I love you,

Danny.

I love you, too, baby.

What do you want to do, Sam?

[ Indistinct speaking over

Well...

I'm gonna go grab something

to eat now.

Need anything from your place?

Yeah, yeah, there's a...

There's a shoe box under my bed.

Do you think you could grab it?

Of course.

Thanks.

Hey.

I go in tomorrow.

You're gonna be great.

Will a nurse be coming in?

No.

Roger?

With Diane.

Then...

we're alone.

No.

I love you.

Now, the surgery will take

several hours.

Then you'll be here in recovery

overnight.

We've found that for patients

like yourself who could hear for

several years, it's generally

easier to learn to associate the

signals provided by the implant

with the sounds that you

remember.

Roger.

Roger.

Roger.

Roger, wake up.

Roger.

What the...?

You got to help me get out of

here.

What?

Look... just for a few hours,

okay?

There's just something I got to

do.

Are you crazy?

You just can't...

Rog, please.

I can't believe we're doing

this.

I'll meet you there, okay?

What do you mean?

I just want to take a little

walk first.

A walk?

Yeah... you know, get some

fresh air.

It's 15 degrees out.

I'll be fine.

See you at the cafe, okay?

Fresh air.

Couple more months, man.

How you gonna drop

hard-earned cash on a pile of

used crap?

What would you spend it on?

Knicks tickets.

I been saving up...

Danny?

Is that you?

Yeah, George. How you been?

Well, better than you.

You look like hell.

What you got on?

Have you lost weight?

Where have you been?

I haven't seen in awhile.

Yeah, I've... I've been a

little sick.

You shouldn't be out here in

the cold.

You might catch something.

It's beautiful out.

Great day to be alive.

So, uh, how's business been?

Well, you know, slow.

Yeah.

Well... george...

I'm not gonna be around for

awhile.

Really?

You gonna take a nice trip with

that lady friend?

She's a looker, I tell you.

Oh, no, uh, she'll be staying

here.

Oh. That's too bad.

Hey, listen... I was, uh...

I was thinking I could catch up

on some reading, you know, stock

up on some journals?

Oh, yeah, sure.

Uh, you got to keep up with the

times.

How many you want?

I don't know.

I was thinking, uh... 500.

I was getting worried about

you.

You're a good friend, rog.

You let me...

Danny. Danny.

Hey. Come on.

Let's get you back.

I need a doctor fast.

Somebody get Dr. Frazier.

Are you crazy?

He could die out there.

Get a gurney!

We need his breathing mask on

now.

I'm sorry.

Will someone please get him

out of here?

I'm so sorry.

Guess it wasn't such a good

idea, after all.

It was beautiful.

Sam should be getting out of

recovery soon, so, um, you

should get to see her.

What do you mean, "no?"

I look like crap.

Man, you know she doesn't

care about that.

Besides, you don't look that

bad.

But you do sound like hell,

though.

You know... I never had a

brother.

What?

Stop.

I love you, man.

I love

you, too, brother.

But you got to stop clogging

toilets.

Will you do me a favor?

Will you go check on Sam for me?

Yeah, okay.

Love.

It's love.

What?

My answer in the game.

It's love.

Can you tell me when

Ariana Scott is due to get out

of recovery?

And you are?

A friend.

One thing we could always use

more of.

Excuse me?

Nothing.

he ended up dying right in

front of her when she was 5.

Reminded me of my mom's

passing, you know?

I'd never wish that on anybody.

Miss Scott is due out...

Oh, my god.

any minute now.

Sir!

If you asked him, Danny would

say he lived a rich life.

If you saw his apartment or

where he worked, you'd have a

hard time agreeing with that.

If you met him, there would be

no question.

He was only 24.

But Danny lived more than most

do a in a lifetime.

Don't worry.

I'll be covering your shift,

brother.

We are gathered here to say

farewell to Dan and to commit

his soul to the hands of god and

body...

Same goes for us.

Call anytime.

Thanks.

I need a moment.

Okay.

It still feels weird to

hear... hear myself.

I don't even know if I like it.

It'll take time.

You know... For Danny with

you, it was love at first sight.

He would talk to me about you.

I tried to warn him.

I told him how difficult it

would be... That it was

unrealistic.

I basically told him not to do

it.

You know what he told me?

He said he wasn't gonna miss out

on something great just 'cause

it might also be hard.

If he would have listened to

me, he would have missed out on

the greatest thing in his life.

There's one more thing.

It's from Danny.

What is it?

It's love.

Take care of yourself.

Hey, baby, I'm so happy for

you.

It's the first day of your

brand-new life.

But don't take life's blessings

for granted, the way most people

do.

Go outside and hear the world.

It's a beautiful place, and it's

got a lot to say.

Now you can hear it all.

Live a full life, Sam, the life

you choose.

It might seem like I'm gone.

I'm not.

I'm just staying with my mom for

awhile.

But I'll be there whenever you

need me.

So, love with all your heart

'cause where there's love,

you'll find me.

Where there's love, you'll hear

my songs.

All you have to do is listen.

I love you, Sam, always.

Love, Danny.

[ Wings flapping, pigeons

Ah. Thank you.

Thank you.

Music's a powerful thing.

One song can change your mood,

make a memory.

One song can change your whole

life.
