- <i>The way they do in movies

- <i>where beautiful people
- learn beautiful lessons...</i>
- 5

- <i>This is the truth.</i>
- 11
- 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:06,361
- <i>Sorry.</i>
- 12
- 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,600
- <i>Late in the winter
- of my seventeenth year...</i>
- 13
- 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,681
- <i>my mother decided
- that I was depressed.</i>
- 14
- 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,171
- She just eats like a bird,
- she barely leaves the house.
- 15
- 00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:24,845
- I am not depressed, Mom.
- 16
- 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,684
- She's reading the same
- book over and over.
- 17
- 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:27,841
- She's depressed.
- 18
- 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,411
- I'm not depressed.
- 19
- 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,961
- <i>The booklets and the websites
- always list depression as</i>
- 20
- 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,326
- <i>a side effect of cancer.</i>
- 21
- 00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:37,201
- <i>Depression's not
- a side effect of cancer.</i>
- 22
- 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,688
- <i>It's a side effect of dying.</i>
- 23
- 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,408
- <i>Which is what
- was happening to me.</i>
- 24
- 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,564
- I may switch you to Zoloft.
- 25
- 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:08,445
- Or Lexapro.
- 26
- 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,011
- And twice a day instead of once.
- 27
- 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,685
- Why stop there?
- Hmm?
- 28
- 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,040
- Really, just keep them coming.
- 29
- 00:02:13,064 --> 00:02:14,793
- I'm like the Keith Richards
- of cancer kids.
- 30
- 00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:17,366
- Have you been going to that
- support group I suggested?
- 31
- 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,931
- Yeah, it's not my thing.
- 32
- 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,525
- Support groups
- can be a great way
- 33
- 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,200
- for you to connect
- with people who are...
- 34
- 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,125
- Who are... What?
- 35
- 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:26,721
- ...on the same journey.
- 36
- 00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:28,888
- "Journey"? Really?
- 37
- 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,160
- Give it a chance.
- 38
- 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,402
- Who knows, you might even
- find it enlightening.
- 39
- 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,530
- All right.
- 40
- 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,406
- Are you guys ready?
- 41
- 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,725
- We are gathered here today
- 42
- 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,566
- literally in the heart of Jesus.
- 43
- 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,926
- We're here with J.C.
- 44
- 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,048
- Who wants to share their
- story with the group?
- 45
- 00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:55,641
- I'm Angel.
- 46
- 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,449
- I have acute myeloid leukemia.
- 47
- 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,600
- Sid. Acute lymphoblastic
- leukemia.
- 48
- 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,723
- Hi, I'm PJ.
- Um, I have neuroblastoma.
- 49
- 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,167
- I'm Patrick.
- 50
- 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,287
- Testicular.
- 51
- 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,126
- <i>I'll spare you the gory
- details of Patrick's ball cancer.</i>
- 52
- 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,451
- <i>Basically, they found it
- in his nuts...</i>
- 53
- 00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:19,281
- <i>they cut most of it out, and he
- almost died, but he didn't die.</i>
- 54
- 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,007
- <i>So now, here he is,
- divorced, friendless...</i>
- 55
- 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,128
- <i>living on his parents' couch...</i>
- 56
- 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,331
- <i>exploiting his cancer-tastic
- past in the heart of Jesus.</i>
- 57
- 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,681
- <i>Literally.</i>
- 58
- 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,640
- <i>To show us that one day,
- if we 're lucky.</i> ..
- 59
- 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,804
- <i>We could be just like him.</i>
- 60
- 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:40,687
- Who's next?
- 61
- 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:43,971
- Hazel?
- 62
- 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,681
- Um...
- 63
- 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,000
- I'm Hazel.
- 64
- 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,690
- Uh, thyroid, originally...
- 65
- 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,683
- but now with
- quite the impressive
- 66
- 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,569
- satellite colony in my lungs.
- 67
- 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,769
- And how are you doing?
- 68
- 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,401
- <i>Uh, you mean besides
- the terminal cancer?</i>
- 69
- 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,688
- All right, I guess.
- 70
- 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,362
- We're here for you, Hazel.
- 71
- 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,728
- Why don't I play another song?
- 72
- 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,291
- <i>Christ is our friend</i>
- 73
- 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,203
- <i>And he'll be there till the end</i>
- 74
- 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:27,600
- <i>Christ is our friend</i>
- 75
- 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,967
- <i>And he'll be there till the end</i>
- 76
- 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:35,087
- <i>Christ</i>
- 77
- 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:41,770
- Hey, sweet pea.
- 78
- 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,168
- So... was it awesome?
- 79
- 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,567
- "Yeah, Mom,
- it was awesome!"
- 80
- 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,528
- <i>HAZEL". And that was my life.</i>
- 81
- 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,610
- <i>Reality shows.</i>
- 82
- 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,361
- <i>Doctor's appointments.</i>
- 83
- 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,888
- <i>Eight prescription drugs,
- three times a day.</i>
- 84
- 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,730
- <i>But worst, worst,
- worst of all...</i>
- 85
- 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,361
- <i>Support group-</i>
- 86
- 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,320
- - You cannot make me.
- - Of course we can.
- 87
- 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,566
- We're your parents.
- 88
- 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,325
- Come on,
- we've been through this.
- 89
- 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:22,447
- You need to go.
- 90
- 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,728
- You need to make friends,
- and be a teenager.
- 91
- 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,320
- Mom, if you want me
- to be a teenager,
- 92
- 00:05:26,344 --> 00:05:27,930
- you don't send me
- to support group.
- 93
- 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,243
- You gotta get me a fake ID
- so that I can go to clubs...
- 94
- 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,050
- and drink gimlets and take pot.
- 95
- 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,282
- Uh, you don't "take" pot.
- 96
- 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,960
- Well, that is the kind of thing
- I would know with a fake ID.
- 97
- 00:05:38,984 --> 00:05:41,351
- Can you
- just get in the car, please?
- 98
- 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,410
- <i>And</i> so <i>I</i> went.
- 99
- 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,963
- <i>Not because I wanted to, or because
- I thought it would help</i> me...
- 100
- 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,130
- <i>but for the same reason
- I did anything these days.</i>
- 101
- 00:05:55,280 --> 00:05:56,281
- <i>To make my parents happy.</i>
- 102
- 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,640
- I really don't understand
- why I can't just drive myself.
- 103
- 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,280
- It's not like you're
- gonna do anything.
- 104
- 00:06:00,354 --> 00:06:02,118
- You're just gonna sit here
- and wait again.
- 105
- 00:06:02,354 --> 00:06:03,451
- Of course I'm not.
- 106
- 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,241
- No, I've got stuff to do.
- I'm gonna do errands.
- 107
- 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,367
- Yeah.
- 108
- 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:09,811
- I love you.
- 109
- 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,961
- I love you, too.
- 110
- 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,411
- Have fun.
- 111
- 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,166
- <i>The only thing worse
- than biting it from cancer...</i>
- 112
- 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,482
- <i>is having a kid
- bite it from cancer.</i>
- 113
- 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,286
- Hey!
- 114
- 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,768
- Make some friends.
- 115
- 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,285
- Oh, sorry.
- 116
- 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:30,720
- I'll take the stairs.
- No problem.
- 117
- 00:06:30,744 --> 00:06:31,745
- Thank you.
- 118
- 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:33,926
- Sorry.
- 119
- 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:36,606
- My bad.
- 120
- 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,004
- I'm sorry.
- 121
- 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,405
- Oh, my God.
- 122
- 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:00,845
- <i>So, who would like to start?</i>
- 123
- 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,004
- Does anyone want to start?
- Who wants to kick it off?
- 124
- 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,010
- Go ahead.
- 125
- 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,323
- I'm Beth. I have
- spindle cell sarcoma.
- 126
- 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:12,891
- It's been an okay week.
- 127
- 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,890
- Isaac, I know that you're
- facing some challenges right now.
- 128
- 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:33,690
- Do you want to share
- with the group?
- 129
- 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,046
- Or maybe your friend, here?
- 130
- 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:36,567
- No, I'll share.
- 131
- 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,850
- Hey, guys. Uh...
- 132
- 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,043
- Hi, I'm Isaac.
- 133
- 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:42,725
- I have retinoblastoma.
- 134
- 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,040
- We had surgery on one eye
- when I was younger...
- 135
- 00:07:45,064 --> 00:07:46,684
- so this is a glass eye.
- 136
- 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,280
- And then I'm going in to the
- hospital to have another surgery...
- 137
- 00:07:49,304 --> 00:07:50,400
- to take out the other eye.
- 138
- 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,927
- So, after that surgery, I'm
- just gonna be totally blind.
- 139
- 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,000
- But I'm lucky, because I have this
- beautiful, smoking hot girlfriend...
- 140
- 00:07:56,024 --> 00:07:58,391
- who's way out of my league.
- Monica.
- 141
- 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,248
- And I have great friends like
- Augustus Waters to help me out.
- 142
- 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,205
- So, that's what's up.
- Thanks.
- 143
- 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,124
- We're here for you, Isaac.
- 144
- 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:09,606
- Thank you.
- 145
- 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,760
- Your turn, Gus.
- 146
- 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:13,966
- Yeah, sure.
- 147
- 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,926
- Um, I'm Augustus Waters.
- 148
- 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,764
- I'm 18 years old
- 149
- 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,811
- and I had a touch of osteosarcoma
- about a year-and-a-half ago.
- 150
- 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,487
- So, I've lost this baby
- as a result.
- 151
- 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,768
- And, uh, now I'm part
- cyborg, which is awesome.
- 152
- 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,242
- But, really, I'm just
- here at Isaac's request.
- 153
- 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,801
- And how are you feeling, Gus?
- 154
- 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,884
- I'm grand, yeah.
- 155
- 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,287
- I'm on a roller coaster that
- only goes up, my friend.
- 156
- 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,560
- Maybe you'd like to share
- your fears with the group?
- 157
- 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,131
- My fears?
- 158
- 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,326
- Oblivion.
- 159
- 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:54,761
- Oblivion?
- 160
- 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,126
- Yeah.
- 161
- 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,681
- You see, I intend to live
- an extraordinary life.
- 162
- 00:08:58,840 --> 00:08:59,841
- To be remembered.
- 163
- 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:01,720
- So, I'd say if I have any fears,
- 164
- 00:09:01,744 --> 00:09:03,872
- it would be to not do that.
- 165
- 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,162
- Would anyone else in the
- group like to speak to that?
- 166
- 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,086
- Hazel?
- 167
- 00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:14,284
- Unexpected.
- 168
- 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,085
- I just want to say
- that there's gonna
- 169
- 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,810
- come a time when
- all of us are dead.
- 170
- 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,890
- There was a time before humans
- 171
- 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,610
- and there's gonna
- be a time after.
- 172
- 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,080
- It could be tomorrow, it could
- be a million years from now.
- 173
- 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,009
- And when it does,
- there will be no one left...
- 174
- 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:32,484
- to remember Cleopatra or
- Muhammad Ali or Mozart...
- 175
- 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,529
- let alone any of us.
- 176
- 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,525
- Oblivion's inevitable.
- 177
- 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,848
- And if that scares you, then
- I suggest you ignore it.
- 178
- 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,004
- God knows it's what
- everyone else does.
- 179
- 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,370
- Well, that's some good advice.
- 180
- 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,688
- And I like all this because it's
- really nice to hear everybody...
- 181
- 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,684
- Thank you.
- Mmm-hmm.
- 182
- 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,325
- Always.
- Always.
- 183
- 00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:16,045
- - Always.
- - Always.
- 184
- 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,203
- "Literally."
- 185
- 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,000
- I thought we were
- in a church basement...
- 186
- 00:10:22,024 --> 00:10:25,242
- but apparently we were literally
- in the heart of Jesus.
- 187
- 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,129
- Oh, yeah.
- 188
- 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,647
- What's your name?
- 189
- 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,405
- Hazel.
- 190
- 00:10:32,560 --> 00:10:34,210
- No, what's your full name?
- 191
- 00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:36,449
- Hazel Grace Lancaster.
- 192
- 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:43,201
- What?
- 193
- 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:44,361
- I didn't say anything.
- 194
- 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,408
- Why are you looking
- at me like that?
- 195
- 00:10:46,560 --> 00:10:48,085
- Because you're beautiful.
- 196
- 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,327
- Oh, my God.
- 197
- 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,528
- I enjoy looking
- at beautiful people.
- 198
- 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:53,880
- See, I decided a while back...
- 199
- 00:10:53,904 --> 00:10:56,121
- not to deny myself the simpler
- pleasures of existence.
- 200
- 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,965
- Particularly, as you
- so astutely pointed out,
- 201
- 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,320
- we're all gonna die pretty soon.
- 202
- 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,562
- Okay, well, that's great.
- But I am not beautiful.
- 203
- 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:03,807
- Hey, Gus.
- 204
- 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:04,927
- Hi, Lisa.
- 205
- 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,000
- I like it when you say it first.
- 206
- 00:11:07,024 --> 00:11:08,360
- I like it when you say it first.
- 207
- 00:11:08,384 --> 00:11:08,881
- Okay-
- 208
- 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,366
- Always.
- 209
- 00:11:10,560 --> 00:11:11,925
- Always.
- 210
- 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,570
- What is with the "always"?
- 211
- 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,131
- "Always" is, like, their thing.
- 212
- 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,926
- They'll "always" love
- each other, and whatnot.
- 213
- 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,247
- They probably texted "always" to each
- other 14 million times this year.
- 214
- 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,246
- He's got to be hurting her boob.
- 215
- 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,485
- Let's go watch a movie.
- 216
- 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:31,971
- What?
- Hmm?
- 217
- 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,281
- Huh?
- 218
- 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,967
- Um...
- 219
- 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,649
- I'm free later this week,
- we could...
- 220
- 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,285
- No, I mean now.
- 221
- 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,645
- You could be an axe murderer.
- 222
- 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,683
- There's always that possibility.
- 223
- 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,088
- Come on, Hazel Grace.
- Take a risk.
- 224
- 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,287
- I don't...
- 225
- 00:11:52,680 --> 00:11:53,681
- Really?
- 226
- 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:54,961
- That is disgusting.
- 227
- 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:56,521
- What?
- 228
- 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,967
- What, do you think that
- that's cool or something?
- 229
- 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,400
- You just ruined
- this whole thing.
- 230
- 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,130
- The whole thing?
- Yes, this whole thing!
- 231
- 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:03,606
- Oh, man.
- 232
- 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,803
- Ugh. And you were
- doing really well, too.
- 233
- 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,965
- God! There's always
- a hamartia, isn't there?
- 234
- 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,322
- And yours is even though
- you had freaking cancer...
- 235
- 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,360
- you're willing to give
- money to a corporation...
- 236
- 00:12:13,384 --> 00:12:15,591
- for the chance to acquire
- even more cancer?
- 237
- 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,645
- Let me just tell you that not
- being able to breathe sucks!
- 238
- 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,330
- It totally sucks.
- 239
- 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:21,641
- "Hamartia"?
- 240
- 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,365
- It's a fatal flaw.
- 241
- 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,045
- Ah, a fatal...
- 242
- 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:27,321
- Hazel Grace,
- 243
- 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,400
- they don't actually hurt
- you unless you light them.
- 244
- 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:31,201
- Hmm?
- 245
- 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,130
- I've never lit one.
- 246
- 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,166
- It's a metaphor, see?
- 247
- 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,483
- You put the thing that does the
- killing right between your teeth...
- 248
- 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,121
- but you never give it
- the power to kill you.
- 249
- 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,486
- A metaphor.
- 250
- 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,051
- Hey, sweetheart.
- Is it Top <i>Model</i> time?
- 251
- 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,324
- No. Uh...
- 252
- 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,170
- I've made plans
- with Augustus Waters.
- 253
- 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,764
- Whoa!
- 254
- 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,480
- Oh, my God.
- 255
- 00:13:06,504 --> 00:13:07,646
- Ooh!
- 256
- 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,769
- Yeah, I failed my test
- a couple times.
- 257
- 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:11,326
- You don't say.
- 258
- 00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:13,200
- Actually, the fourth time
- I took the test,
- 259
- 00:13:13,224 --> 00:13:14,714
- it was going about
- how this is going.
- 260
- 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,844
- And when it was over...
- 261
- 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,207
- the instructor looks over
- at me, and she says...
- 262
- 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,768
- "Your driving, while unpleasant,
- is not technically unsafe."
- 263
- 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:24,081
- Cancer perk.
- 264
- 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,889
- Total cancer perk.
- 265
- 00:13:27,560 --> 00:13:29,722
- So, tell me about you.
- 266
- 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,891
- Um, I was 13 when they found it.
- 267
- 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,887
- <i>Pretty much
- worst-case scenario.</i>
- 268
- 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,522
- <i>Thyroid, stage four.</i>
- 269
- 00:13:38,680 --> 00:13:39,761
- <i>Not much they could do.</i>
- 270
- 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,243
- <i>Which didn't stop them,
- of course.</i>
- 271
- 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,361
- <i>Surgery-</i>
- 272
- 00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:45,766
- <i>Radiation.</i>
- 273
- 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,241
- <i>Chemo.</i>
- 274
- 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:48,926
- <i>More radiation.</i>
- 275
- 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,248
- <i>All of which worked for a while.</i>
- 276
- 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,971
- <i>But, then stopped working.</i>
- 277
- 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,250
- <i>And then one day, my lungs
- started filling up with water.</i>
- 278
- 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,442
- Nurse!
- We need a nurse right now!
- 279
- 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:04,806
- <i>I couldn't breathe.</i>
- 280
- 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,042
- <i>No one could get it
- under control.</i>
- 281
- 00:14:07,560 --> 00:14:09,449
- You can let go, sweetie.
- 282
- 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:11,400
- Don't be afraid.
- 283
- 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,160
- <i>That should have been the end.</i>
- 284
- 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:14,965
- Oh, my God.
- 285
- 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,164
- <i>But then something
- strange happened.</i>
- 286
- 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:19,969
- <i>The antibiotics kicked in.</i>
- 287
- 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,202
- <i>They drained the fluid
- from my lungs.</i>
- 288
- 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:23,406
- <i>I got some strength back.</i>
- 289
- 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,808
- <i>Next thing I know, I found
- myself in an experimental trial.</i>
- 290
- 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,371
- <i>You know, the ones
- that are famous</i>
- 291
- 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,284
- <i>in the Republic of
- Cancervania for not working.</i>
- 292
- 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:33,805
- <i>It's called Phalanxifor.</i>
- 293
- 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,803
- <i>It didn't work in over
- 70% of the patients...</i>
- 294
- 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,406
- <i>but for some reason
- it's been working for me.</i>
- 295
- 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,125
- So, they called it
- "The Miracle."
- 296
- 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,160
- Of course, my lungs still
- suck at being lungs...
- 297
- 00:14:42,310 --> 00:14:44,711
- but, theoretically, they could
- continue to suck like this...
- 298
- 00:14:44,870 --> 00:14:46,961
- for, I don't know,
- a while maybe.
- 299
- 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,970
- So, are you back in school?
- 300
- 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,920
- I got my GED, so I'm
- taking classes at MCC.
- 301
- 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,441
- Whoa! A college girl!
- 302
- 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,001
- Well, that explains
- the aura of sophistication.
- 303
- 00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,081
- Oh! Careful!
- 304
- 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:05,521
- Oops.
- 305
- 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,446
- Welcome to my humble abode.
- 306
- 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,488
- Uh, my folks call them
- "encouragements."
- 307
- 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,081
- Don't ask.
- 308
- 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:26,161
- Hi, guys!
- 309
- 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,130
- Hey!
- Augustus, hi.
- 310
- 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:29,845
- New friend?
- 311
- 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,521
- Yeah.
- This is Hazel Grace.
- 312
- 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,011
- Hey. Oh,
- it's just "Hazel."
- 313
- 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,800
- How's it going, "Just Hazel"?
- 314
- 00:15:36,824 --> 00:15:38,044
- Hi, Hazel, how are you?
- 315
- 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,049
- Yeah, we're going
- downstairs. Bye.
- 316
- 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,200
- Nice to meet you, too.
- 317
- 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:50,486
- This is it.
- 318
- 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,802
- Augusto World.
- 319
- 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,121
- This is my room.
- 320
- 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:55,725
- Wow.
- 321
- 00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,882
- It's an impressive collection.
- 322
- 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,166
- Yeah, I used to play.
- 323
- 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,330
- Do you mind if I sit down?
- 324
- 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,522
- Yeah. Make yourself
- at home.
- 325
- 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,200
- <i>Mi casa es tu</i> casa.
- 326
- 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,211
- Sorry, the, um, stairs...
- 327
- 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,644
- ...and the standing...
- 328
- 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,402
- Yeah, I understand.
- 329
- 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:24,846
- Seriously, are you okay?
- 330
- 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,206
- Yeah, yeah.
- 331
- 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,011
- All right.
- What's your story?
- 332
- 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,163
- I already told you.
- 333
- 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,083
- I was diagnosed when I was 13...
- 334
- 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,560
- No, no, no. Not your cancer
- story, your real story.
- 335
- 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,250
- Your interests, your hobbies,
- 336
- 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:40,731
- your passions,
- your weird fetishes.
- 337
- 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,241
- "Weird fetishes"?
- 338
- 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,720
- Think of something. The first
- thing that pops in your head.
- 339
- 00:16:44,744 --> 00:16:45,791
- Something you love.
- 340
- 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:48,771
- <i>An Imperial Affliction.</i>
- 341
- 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,765
- Okay. What's that?
- 342
- 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:53,046
- It's a novel.
- 343
- 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,924
- It's my favorite novel.
- 344
- 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,003
- Wait, does it have
- zombies in it?
- 345
- 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:58,201
- Zombies? No!
- 346
- 00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:59,520
- Stormtroopers?
- 347
- 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,411
- No, it's not that
- kind of a book.
- 348
- 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,364
- Okay, what's it about?
- 349
- 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,120
- Uh, cancer.
- 350
- 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:08,241
- It's about cancer?
- 351
- 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,246
- But not like that.
- Trust me, it's amazing.
- 352
- 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,131
- The author, his name
- is Peter Van Houten.
- 353
- 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,920
- He's the only person I've ever
- come across in my life...
- 354
- 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,402
- who, A, understands what
- it's like to be dying...
- 355
- 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,762
- but, B, hasn't actually died.
- 356
- 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,285
- Okay-
- 357
- 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,960
- I will read this horrible book
- with this very boring title...
- 358
- 00:17:28,120 --> 00:17:30,646
- that does not include
- zombies or Stormtroopers.
- 359
- 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,131
- And in exchange...
- 360
- 00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:36,804
- ...you will read this.
- 361
- 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,200
- This haunting,
- 362
- 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,601
- yet brilliant novelization
- of my favorite video game.
- 363
- 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,164
- <i>"Counterinsurgence."</i>
- 364
- 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:47,802
- Yeah, don't laugh.
- It's awesome.
- 365
- 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,480
- It's about honor, and sacrifice,
- and bravery, and heroism.
- 366
- 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,887
- It's about embracing
- your destiny,
- 367
- 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,246
- and leaving a mark on the world.
- 368
- 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,324
- Well, thank you.
- 369
- 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,642
- Wait, your hands are so cold.
- 370
- 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,088
- Well, they're not so much cold
- as just under-oxygenated.
- 371
- 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:07,845
- Hazel Grace?
- Hmm?
- 372
- 00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:09,804
- I love it when you
- talk medical to me.
- 373
- 00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:19,521
- That's different.
- 374
- 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,967
- Did he give it to you?
- 375
- 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,205
- By "it," do you mean herpes?
- 376
- 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:28,286
- Wow.
- 377
- 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:29,646
- Yes, I did.
- 378
- 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,529
- It's a mother's dream.
- 379
- 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,881
- Hey, don't worry.
- 380
- 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,724
- Oh, my God, Mom.
- I'm not worried.
- 381
- 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,041
- It's not a big deal.
- 382
- 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:53,561
- Yeah.
- 383
- 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,008
- We just hung out, it's not like
- I'm waiting for him to call me.
- 384
- 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,360
- <i>- Is that</i> what... <i>?</i>
- Yeah-
- 385
- 00:19:38,439 --> 00:19:40,239
- Because I thought
- those were peppers.
- 386
- 00:19:40,263 --> 00:19:42,206
- Today, in China,
- 387
- 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:43,440
- International Goji Berry Day.
- 388
- 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,081
- Isn't that great?
- 389
- 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:47,446
- I like the color.
- 390
- 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:48,601
- Mmm-hmm.
- 391
- 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,523
- This is the dry.
- Uh-huh. Very good.
- 392
- 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,410
- They're good, right?
- Mmm-hmm.
- 393
- 00:19:53,360 --> 00:19:56,728
- So, do they eat a lot of goji
- berries on Goji Berry Day?
- 394
- 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,442
- I did something
- with the dessert...
- 395
- 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,729
- just to try to keep
- the goji berry theme going.
- 396
- 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,609
- Because they're
- an amazing antioxidant.
- 397
- 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:13,961
- Well, I like it.
- 398
- 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:15,570
- We should do it every year.
- 399
- 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,240
- Every year.
- We should do it every year.
- 400
- 00:20:17,264 --> 00:20:17,961
- I know.
- 401
- 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:19,769
- I really do like these.
- 402
- 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,489
- Honey, would you like
- to be excused?
- 403
- 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:25,801
- What?
- 404
- 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,809
- Hazel Grace.
- 405
- 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,163
- <i>Welcome</i> to <i>the sweet torture of
- reading An Imperial Affliction.</i>
- 406
- 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,607
- <i>But now I'm
- breaking all the rules!</i>
- 407
- 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,171
- Are you okay?
- 408
- 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,243
- <i>And now
- I'm breaking all the rules</i>
- 409
- 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,846
- Uh... Me? Yeah,
- I am excellent.
- 410
- 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,162
- I am, however,
- with Isaac, and...
- 411
- 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,844
- Isaac, does Support Group Hazel
- make this better or worse?
- 412
- 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,364
- <i>I've been wasting all my time</i>
- 413
- 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,005
- Isaac! Focus on me.
- 414
- 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,286
- <i>Been wasting all my time</i>
- 415
- 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,369
- How fast can you get here?
- 416
- 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:00,761
- Um...
- 417
- 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,080
- <i>Great. Well,
- the door's open.</i>
- 418
- 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:03,486
- I gotta run. Bye.
- 419
- 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,164
- Hello?
- 420
- 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,049
- Hazel.
- 421
- 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,160
- Isaac, Hazel Grace from the
- Support Group is here.
- 422
- 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:18,241
- - Hi.
- - Hi.
- 423
- 00:21:20,360 --> 00:21:22,522
- Uh...
- A gentle reminder...
- 424
- 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,041
- Isaac's in the midst of a
- psychotic episode right now.
- 425
- 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,486
- You look really nice,
- by the way.
- 426
- 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:27,681
- I like this color on you.
- 427
- 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,285
- Thank you.
- 428
- 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,805
- Isaac.
- 429
- 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:38,280
- Isaac, Hazel's here.
- 430
- 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:39,846
- Hey, Isaac.
- 431
- 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,843
- Hey, Hazel.
- 432
- 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:48,721
- How you doing?
- 433
- 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,451
- I'm doing okay.
- 434
- 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,364
- It seems Isaac and Monica are
- no longer a going concern.
- 435
- 00:21:55,360 --> 00:21:56,880
- Oh, Isaac, I'm so sorry.
- 436
- 00:21:56,904 --> 00:21:58,064
- Do you want to talk about it?
- 437
- 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,249
- No, I just want to cry
- and play video games.
- 438
- 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,440
- However, you know, it doesn't
- hurt to talk to him...
- 439
- 00:22:04,464 --> 00:22:07,528
- if you have any sage words
- of feminine advice.
- 440
- 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,690
- I actually think that his
- response is fairly appropriate.
- 441
- 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,410
- "Pain demands to be felt."
- 442
- 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,090
- You're quoting my book.
- 443
- 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,526
- She said she wanted to break up
- with me before the surgery...
- 444
- 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,921
- because she couldn't handle it.
- 445
- 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,721
- I'm about to lose my eyesight,
- and she can't handle it.
- 446
- 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,401
- I kept saying "always" to her.
- Like, "Always."
- 447
- 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,927
- And she kept talking over me
- 448
- 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,002
- and not saying it back, and...
- 449
- 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,287
- It was like I was gone
- already, you know?
- 450
- 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:37,726
- You know, sometimes...
- 451
- 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,042
- people don't understand
- the promises
- 452
- 00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:42,248
- that they're making
- when they make them.
- 453
- 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:43,401
- I know, but...
- 454
- 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,050
- I feel like such a loser.
- 455
- 00:22:46,120 --> 00:22:47,281
- I still have her necklace on.
- 456
- 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:48,566
- Take it off.
- 457
- 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:49,966
- Dude, take that off.
- 458
- 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,610
- Yeah.
- 459
- 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,205
- Here we go, man.
- Here we go.
- 460
- 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,123
- I just want to kick something.
- 461
- 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:00,730
- Don't hit that, don't hit that.
- 462
- 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:02,241
- Uh...
- 463
- 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,805
- Hit this.
- Sorry.
- 464
- 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,410
- I've been wanting to call
- you for a few days now...
- 465
- 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,120
- but I've been waiting
- until I could form
- 466
- 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,040
- a coherent thought about
- An Imperial Affliction.
- 467
- 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,047
- One second.
- 468
- 00:23:22,120 --> 00:23:23,281
- Isaac.
- 469
- 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,520
- Pillows don't break.
- 470
- 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,484
- You need to break something.
- 471
- 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,125
- Try this.
- 472
- 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,769
- The trophy?
- Yeah.
- 473
- 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:33,841
- Are you sure?
- 474
- 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,760
- I've been looking for a way to tell
- my father I kind of hate basketball.
- 475
- 00:23:36,784 --> 00:23:38,354
- Go to town!
- 476
- 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,011
- Always!
- 477
- 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:47,851
- <i>An Imperial Affliction.</i>
- 478
- 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,809
- Yes. I'm so glad
- that you liked it.
- 479
- 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,525
- Yes, I did.
- But the ending.
- 480
- 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,205
- I know.
- It is rather abrupt.
- 481
- 00:23:54,360 --> 00:23:56,601
- "Rather abrupt"? Are you kidding?
- It's evil!
- 482
- 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,649
- I mean, I understand
- that she dies...
- 483
- 00:23:59,120 --> 00:24:01,280
- but there's an unwritten
- contract between author and...
- 484
- 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:02,687
- Gus?
- Yeah?
- 485
- 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:03,841
- Cool?
- Sure.
- 486
- 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:05,490
- Between author and reader.
- 487
- 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,449
- And I feel like ending your book
- in the middle of a sentence...
- 488
- 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,363
- violates that contract,
- don't you think?
- 489
- 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:10,601
- Okay, yes.
- 490
- 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:11,727
- I know what you mean...
- 491
- 00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:13,610
- but, to be completely honest,
- 492
- 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:14,920
- I think it's just so truthful.
- 493
- 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,289
- You just die in
- the middle of life.
- 494
- 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:18,840
- You die in the middle
- of a sentence.
- 495
- 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,282
- And, I don't know...
- 496
- 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,209
- But I really would like to know
- 497
- 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,487
- what happens to everyone
- after Anna dies.
- 498
- 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:28,881
- Like Anna's mother.
- 499
- 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,405
- Yes, and the Dutch Tulip Man.
- 500
- 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,130
- And Sisyphus the Hamster.
- 501
- 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:33,811
- Yes!
- 502
- 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,641
- Have you tried contacting
- this Peter Van Houten fellow?
- 503
- 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,689
- I've written him
- so many letters,
- 504
- 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,250
- but he's never responded.
- 505
- 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:42,811
- Apparently, he moved
- to Amsterdam
- 506
- 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,211
- and became a recluse, and...
- 507
- 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,563
- Shame.
- Yeah.
- 508
- 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:48,921
- Isaac“.
- 509
- 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,208
- You feeling better, buddy?
- 510
- 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,243
- That's the thing about pain.
- 511
- 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,567
- It demands to be felt.
- 512
- 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,411
- I'll help you clean this up.
- 513
- 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,763
- Hazel Grace.
- 514
- 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:04,967
- Augustus Waters.
- 515
- 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,560
- I cannot stop thinking
- about this goddamn book.
- 516
- 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,882
- You're welcome.
- 517
- 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,760
- However, we do need closure,
- don't you think?
- 518
- 00:25:11,784 --> 00:25:13,370
- That is exactly
- what I was asking
- 519
- 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:14,726
- Van Houten for in my letters.
- 520
- 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,285
- But he never responded.
- 521
- 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,205
- Um, nope.

- Good to see you.
- 660
- 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,165
- Hi, Hazel Grace.
- 661
- 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:19,606
- Hi.
- 662
- 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,162
- How would you like to go
- on a picnic with me?
- 663
- 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,208
- Um, I would love to go
- on a picnic with you.
- 664
- 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,005
- Shall we?
- 665
- 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,208
- No.
- Let me...
- 666
- 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,285
- I smell like hospital,
- so I should just change.
- 667
- 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:45,761
- So, uh...
- 668
- 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,731
- you're a survivor yourself, huh?
- 669
- 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:49,801
- Yeah.
- 670
- 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,803
- I didn't cut this fellow
- off for the hell of it.
- 671
- 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,050
- Although it does make an
- excellent weight-loss strategy.
- 672
- 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:58,765
- Legs are very heavy.
- 673
- 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,804
- How's your health now?
- 674
- 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,321
- It's great.
- NEC for 14 months.
- 675
- 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:05,447
- Really?
- Yeah.
- 676
- 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,010
- That's fantastic.
- Yeah.
- 677
- 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,164
- I'm very lucky.
- 678
- 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,841
- Hey, listen, Gus.
- 679
- 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,965
- You have to understand,
- Hazel's still pretty sick.
- 680
- 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,765
- And she will be
- the rest of her life.
- 681
- 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:29,520
- And she's gonna want to
- keep up with you.
- 682
- 00:33:29,709 --> 00:33:31,869
- She's that kind of girl. But
- the truth is, her lungs...
- 683
- 00:33:31,893 --> 00:33:32,893
- Ready, Gus?
- 684
- 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:34,561
- Yeah.
- 685
- 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,570
- All right.
- See you soon.
- 686
- 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:40,960
- All right.
- 687
- 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:44,887
- Oh!
- 688
- 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,243
- Such a beautiful day.
- 689
- 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:48,361
- Yeah.
- 690
- 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,761
- Is this where you take all
- of your romantic conquests?
- 691
- 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:52,450
- Every last one of them.
- 692
- 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,121
- That's probably why
- I'm still a virgin.
- 693
- 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,202
- You are not still a virgin.
- 694
- 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,081
- Are you really?
- 695
- 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:03,571
- Let me show you something.
- 696
- 00:34:08,240 --> 00:34:09,651
- See this circle?
- 697
- 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,404
- That is a circle of virgins.
- 698
- 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:16,641
- Uh-huh.
- 699
- 00:34:18,240 --> 00:34:20,811
- And this...
- 700
- 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,122
- is 18-year-old dudes
- with one leg.
- 701
- 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,524
- Oh...
- So, yeah.
- 702
- 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,850
- <i>Funky Bones by
- Jeep Van Lieshout.</i>
- 703
- 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:41,966
- He sounds quite Dutch.
- 704
- 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,201
- And he is.
- 705
- 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,124
- Much like Rik Smits.
- 706
- 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,009
- And tulips.
- 707
- 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:50,001
- Sandwich?
- 708
- 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:51,401
- Let me guess.
- 709
- 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,608
- Dutch cheese and tomato.
- 710
- 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,084
- Sorry, the tomatoes are Mexican.
- 711
- 00:34:56,720 --> 00:34:58,290
- How dare you!
- 712
- 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,001
- Hmm.
- 713
- 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,162
- How cool is this?
- 714
- 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,687
- They're using a skeleton
- as a playground.
- 715
- 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,410
- Think about that.
- 716
- 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,725
- You do love your symbols.
- 717
- 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,760
- Speaking of which,
- you're probably wondering...
- 718
- 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,080
- why you're sitting here eating
- a bad cheese sandwich...
- 719
- 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,440
- and drinking orange juice with
- a guy in a Rik Smits jersey.
- 720
- 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,528
- It actually has crossed my mind.
- 721
- 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,281
- Well, Hazel Grace,
- like so many before you...
- 722
- 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,489
- and listen, I say this with
- the utmost of affection...
- 723
- 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:27,725
- you used your wish moronically.
- 724
- 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,809
- Okay, we've been through this.
- I was 13.
- 725
- 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,770
- Hush! lam in the midst
- of a grand soliloquy, here.
- 726
- 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,003
- You were young,
- impressionable...
- 727
- 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,040
- the Grim Reaper staring
- you right in the face...
- 728
- 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,090
- and it led you to rush into making
- a wish you didn't really want.
- 729
- 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:41,970
- But, how could
- little Hazel Grace,
- 730
- 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:43,720
- having never read
- An Imperial Affliction...
- 731
- 00:35:43,744 --> 00:35:47,082
- know that her one true wish was
- to visit Mr. Peter Van Houten...
- 732
- 00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:49,083
- in his Amsterdam exile.
- 733
- 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,721
- But I didn't save it, so...
- 734
- 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,361
- It's a good thing I saved mine.
- 735
- 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,770
- So, you're saying...
- 736
- 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,207
- I'm not gonna give you my
- wish or anything, Hazel.
- 737
- 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:04,885
- If that's what you're thinking.
- 738
- 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,041
- However...
- 739
- 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:11,408
- I, too, have an interest in meeting
- this Mr. Peter Van Houten...
- 740
- 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:13,931
- and I don't really think
- it would make much sense...
- 741
- 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:15,161
- to meet him without the
- girl who introduced me
- 742
- 00:36:15,240 --> 00:36:16,520
- to the book
- in the first place...
- 743
- 00:36:16,544 --> 00:36:17,601
- now, would it?
- 744
- 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,400
- So I talked to the Genies,
- and they're all for it.
- 745
- 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,450
- We leave in a month.
- 746
- 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:24,961
- No.
- 747
- 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:26,486
- Mmm-hmm.
- 748
- 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:29,367
- Oh, my God.
- 749
- 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:31,965
- Oh, my God!
- 750
- 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:33,565
- Augustus!
- 751
- 00:36:34,240 --> 00:36:35,969
- Thank you!
- 752
- 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,961
- Apparently, they... I don't know
- if they do this that often,
- 753
- 00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:43,801
- but they're willing to
- bring me, too, and...
- 754
- 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:45,730
- That's incredible.
- 755
- 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,405
- Hazel, that's so beautiful.
- 756
- 00:36:47,720 --> 00:36:48,721
- I know.
- 757
- 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:50,524
- And a little insane.
- 758
- 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,286
- Oh, it's super insane. It's...
- It's... It's... It's crazy!
- 759
- 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:54,487
- Well...
- It's Amsterdam!
- 760
- 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:55,846
- He just met you...
- 761
- 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,201
- I know! ...and he's
- giving you his wish.
- 762
- 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:02,405
- Well, we're sharing the wish. We're... I
- mean, he... He... Yeah. We're sharing it.
- 763
- 00:37:02,720 --> 00:37:04,131
- That's sweet.
- 764
- 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:06,731
- Unless...
- 765
- 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,200
- What?
- 766
- 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,962
- Is he your boyfriend?
- Is that...
- 767
- 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,003
- Stop it! Do not...
- He is not my...
- 768
- 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:14,720
- Mom, focus,
- we're talking about Amsterdam.
- 769
- 00:37:14,744 --> 00:37:17,395
- I like him so much. I...
- Stop.
- 770
- 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,001
- Pay attention.
- Please! Can I go?
- 771
- 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,289
- Right, as your mom,
- I love this idea.
- 772
- 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,966
- And I... I think we
- should talk to Dr. Maria.
- 773
- 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:32,961
- Okay-
- 774
- 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:34,561
- I don't know.
- 775
- 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:35,920
- But you said that
- the PET scan was encouraging.
- 776
- 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,769
- Well, the PET scan
- is encouraging,
- 777
- 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,047
- but we don't know how long
- it will stay that way.
- 778
- 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,642
- Okay, I'm not seeking political asylum.
- It's a few days. It's a vacation!
- 779
- 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,205
- It's true.
- What if you get sick?
- 780
- 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,765
- In a foreign country?
- 781
- 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,844
- They have doctors in
- Amsterdam. And cancer.
- 782
- 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,766
- Well, not all cancers are alike, and
- yours is particularly unusual, Hazel.
- 783
- 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,402
- The only way I could ever
- authorize a trip like this
- 784
- 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,648
- would be if someone
- familiar with your case...
- 785
- 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,410
- What if my mom came?
- 786
- 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:03,370
- Wait, what?
- 787
- 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,125
- What if you came?
- 788
- 00:38:05,240 --> 00:38:07,766
- I'm... I'm sure the Genies would
- hook it up. They're loaded.
- 789
- 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,723
- That just might work.
- 790
- 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,724
- <i>HAZEL".
- And then this happened.</i>
- 791
- 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:02,406
- Hey-
- 792
- 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:03,801
- Hi.
- 793
- 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,568
- Hey.
- You're okay.
- 794
- 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,370
- So, what happened?
- 795
- 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,488
- The usual.
- 796
- 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,644
- Fluid in the lungs
- preventing oxygenation.
- 797
- 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,802
- They put a tube in.
- 798
- 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,240
- They drained a liter
- and a half last night.
- 799
- 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,050
- The good news is...
- 800
- 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,043
- no tumor growth.
- 801
- 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,964
- No new tumors in your body.
- 802
- 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:28,809
- We're so relieved.
- 803
- 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,725
- This is just a thing, Hazel.
- 804
- 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,851
- It's a thing we can live with.
- 805
- 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,162
- Mr. Lancaster.
- 806
- 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:43,481
- How's she doing?
- 807
- 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:44,727
- Better.
- 808
- 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,122
- Yeah, thank you.
- Much, much better.
- 809
- 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,851
- Uh, they won't let me in.
- It's family only.
- 810
- 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,411
- Yeah, sorry.
- 811
- 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:53,489
- Yeah, I get it.
- 812
- 00:39:53,720 --> 00:39:54,926
- Um...
- 813
- 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,325
- Could you just
- tell her I was here?
- 814
- 00:39:57,720 --> 00:39:59,802
- Yeah, of course.
- Of course I will.
- 815
- 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,209
- Okay. Gus, listen, why
- don't you go home?
- 816
- 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,243
- Get some rest.
- 817
- 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,004
- Okay-
- 818
- 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,760
- Normally, the tumors
- start resisting the treatment...
- 819
- 00:40:16,784 --> 00:40:18,548
- and that hasn't happened here...
- 820
- 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:20,171
- Yet.
- 821
- 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,004
- On the other hand...
- 822
- 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,243
- the drug may be
- worsening the edema.
- 823
- 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:26,361
- The truth is...
- 824
- 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:30,047
- very few people have been on
- Phalanxifor as long as Hazel has.
- 825
- 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:31,960
- We really don't know
- the long-term effects.
- 826
- 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,407
- What we're trying to do is
- prevent endothelial growth...
- 827
- 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:40,044
- which, when overexpressed, can
- contribute to disease, decay...
- 828
- 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:41,565
- vascular inhibition...
- 829
- 00:40:41,720 --> 00:40:44,200
- and the spread of the tumors
- 830
- 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,681
- we're working so hard
- to eradicate.
- 831
- 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,451
- The survival rate of patients
- with severe endothelial growth...
- 832
- 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,286
- decreases exponentially the
- more the condition advances.
- 833
- 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,887
- You can let go, sweetie.
- 834
- 00:40:57,760 --> 00:40:58,966
- Don't be afraid.
- 835
- 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:02,605
- Oh, my God.
- 836
- 00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:07,607
- I'm not gonna be a mom anymore.
- 837
- 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:14,521
- I have a question.
- 838
- 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:17,730
- Yes, Hazel?
- 839
- 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:19,484
- Can I still go to Amsterdam?
- 840
- 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,211
- That would not be wise
- at this juncture.
- 841
- 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,681
- Why not? ls there any way we
- can make that trip happen?
- 842
- 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,240
- It would increase some risks.
- 843
- 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,164
- But so does going to the mall.
- 844
- 00:41:29,240 --> 00:41:30,810
- Yes, but an airplane?
- 845
- 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,769
- But they have oxygen
- on airplanes.
- 846
- 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:34,046
- You're stage four.
- 847
- 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,487
- This is an opportunity
- that I may never get again.
- 848
- 00:41:37,240 --> 00:41:38,287
- Even
- 849
- 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,243
- If the medication is working, I
- don't understand why I can't...
- 850
- 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:41,481
- Perhaps there's a scenario...
- 851
- 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:42,647
- No.
- 852
- 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,449
- I don't know any other
- way to say this, Hazel.
- 853
- 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:47,681
- You're just too sick.
- 854
- 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:50,689
- I'm sorry.
- 855
- 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:35,326
- MICHAEL; Hello?
- 856
- 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,689
- Yeah, just a sec.
- 857
- 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,490
- Hi. Gus... again.
- 858
- 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:45,804
- Sorry, she's asleep.
- 859
- 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:47,440
- Yeah. Uh, okay.
- 860
- 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,249
- All right. Bye-bye.
- 861
- 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:56,560
- I know what you're thinking.
- 862
- 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,164
- It's not fair to him.
- 863
- 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:01,441
- It's not.
- 864
- 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:03,923
- He doesn't need this
- in his life.
- 865
- 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:05,411
- Nobody does.
- 866
- 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,329
- A lot more trouble
- than it's worth.
- 867
- 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:09,371
- No, you're right.
- 868
- 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,727
- Your mom and I were just
- saying the same thing.
- 869
- 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,724
- I mean, it could be time we
- tossed you out on the street.
- 870
- 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,883
- Drop you off in an orphanage
- somewhere, make you their problem.
- 871
- 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:21,887
- I'm serious.
- 872
- 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,687
- We're not sentimental people.
- 873
- 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:21,483
- Hazel Grace.
- 874
- 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,282
- Hi, Augustus.
- 875
- 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,807
- <i>Are you okay?</i>
- 876
- 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:37,326
- No.
- 877
- 00:44:38,720 --> 00:44:40,643
- <i>What's the matter?</i>
- 878
- 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,205
- <i>Talk to me.</i>
- 879
- 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,284
- I don't know.
- 880
- 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,129
- Everything.
- 881
- 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,689
- I want to go to Amsterdam, Gus.
- 882
- 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:02,160
- And I want Van Houten to tell us
- 883
- 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,282
- what happens after his book.
- 884
- 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,043
- I also don't really want
- this particular life.
- 885
- 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:19,760
- I mean, it's really
- just the sky.
- 886
- 00:45:19,839 --> 00:45:20,886
- The sky is making me sad.
- 887
- 00:45:21,039 --> 00:45:23,650
- And there's this pathetic
- old swing set...
- 888
- 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,361
- that my dad built for me when
- I was a kid and...
- 889
- 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,241
- It's just everything, I guess.
- 890
- 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:38,042
- <i>Well, I demand to see this
- swing set of tears.</i>
- 891
- 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:41,651
- I do see your point.
- 892
- 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,241
- This is one sad swing set.
- 893
- 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,162
- Hazel Grace,
- I hope you realize...
- 894
- 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,200
- that you trying to
- keep your distance from me
- 895
- 00:45:54,224 --> 00:45:56,963
- in no way lessens
- my affection for you.
- 896
- 00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:00,761
- All your efforts to keep me
- from you are gonna fail.
- 897
- 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:02,850
- Look. Uh...
- 898
- 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:06,091
- I like you.
- 899
- 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,609
- And I like hanging out
- with you and everything...
- 900
- 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,730
- but I can't let this
- go on any further.
- 901
- 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:16,001
- Why not?
- 902
- 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:17,925
- Because I don't
- want to hurt you.
- 903
- 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:19,411
- I wouldn't mind.
- 904
- 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,200
- No, you don't understand.
- I do understand.
- 905
- 00:46:21,224 --> 00:46:22,127
- You don't understand.
- 906
- 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:23,486
- I know what
- you're trying to say.
- 907
- 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:25,802
- Hazel, I'm saying
- I wouldn't mind.
- 908
- 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,566
- It'd be a privilege to have
- my heart broken by you.
- 909
- 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,728
- Gus, I'm a grenade.
- 910
- 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:36,686
- One day I'm gonna explode...
- 911
- 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,207
- and I'm gonna obliterate
- everything in my wake and...
- 912
- 00:46:40,720 --> 00:46:42,882
- I don't know, I feel like
- it's my responsibility...
- 913
- 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:44,883
- to minimize the casualties.
- 914
- 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:49,809
- A grenade?
- 915
- 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,360
- I mean, that's why I
- don't have a hamster.
- 916
- 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,410
- Well, we gotta do something
- about this frickin' swing set.
- 917
- 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:14,601
- Okay-
- 918
- 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,530
- "Swing set needs home."
- 919
- 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:29,050
- "Desperately lonely swing set
- 920
- 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:33,129
- "needs loving home."
- 921
- 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:46,889
- "Lonely, vaguely
- pedophilia swing set
- 922
- 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:51,086
- "seeks the butts of children."
- 923
- 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:55,521
- No. No.
- 924
- 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:56,841
- No? No?
- 925
- 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:58,963
- I like it.
- 926
- 00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:01,120
- That's why.
- 927
- 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,763
- In case you're wondering, that's
- why I like you, Hazel Grace.
- 928
- 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,881
- You're just so busy
- being you, you have
- 929
- 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,480
- no idea how utterly
- unprecedented you are.
- 930
- 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:17,645
- You can't say stuff like that.
- 931
- 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:19,529
- What? That's howl
- speak to all my friends.
- 932
- 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,760
- I know, I know. Friends.
- 933
- 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:27,682
- Friends.
- 934
- 00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,004
- Friends!
- 935
- 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:31,884
- You can't do that!
- 936
- 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:30,170
- "Dear Hazel, received word via
- the Genies that you will...
- 937
- 00:49:31,720 --> 00:49:33,400
- "you'll be visiting us
- with Augustus Waters
- 938
- 00:49:33,424 --> 00:49:35,347
- "and your mother
- on the fourth."
- 939
- 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:39,691
- Mom?
- 940
- 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:41,126
- Yeah?
- 941
- 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:42,611
- Mom!
- 942
- 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:45,764
- What's wrong? Sorry.
- 943
- 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:47,610
- No, I was just taking a bath.
- 944
- 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:51,207
- Did you email the Genies to tell
- them that the trip was off?
- 945
- 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,280
- Because Van Houten's
- assistant just emailed me...
- 946
- 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:56,130
- and she said that she
- thinks we're still coming.
- 947
- 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:00,206
- What?
- 948
- 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,204
- I was supposed to tell you
- with your dad.
- 949
- 00:50:04,720 --> 00:50:05,721
- Mom.
- 950
- 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:07,644
- We're going to Amsterdam.
- 951
- 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,245
- You're se-...
- We're going to Amsterdam?
- 952
- 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,010
- We're going to Amsterdam.
- 953
- 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,401
- We figured the whole thing out.
- We're going.
- 954
- 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,881
- Doctor Maria, everybody knows.
- 955
- 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:20,850
- But only for three days, not six.
- Oh, my God.
- 956
- 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,123
- But everything. An
- oncologist is set there.
- 957
- 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,044
- Everything.
- We're just so good.
- 958
- 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:27,406
- I love you.
- 959
- 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,687
- I love you so much.
- 960
- 00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:33,608
- I love you.
- 961
- 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:42,920
- Here, sit down.
- We're going to Amsterdam.
- 962
- 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:45,168
- We're going to Amsterdam.
- 963
- 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:53,880
- We're going to Amsterdam.
- You can come talk to me.
- 964
- 00:50:53,904 --> 00:50:55,184
- You've got a phone call to make.
- 965
- 00:50:57,680 --> 00:50:59,489
- Call him!
- 966
- 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:09,922
- Okay, lungs, you keep your
- shit together for one week.
- 967
- 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,765
- You got it?
- One more week.
- 968
- 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:50,961
- Oh. Oh, wait,
- the food.
- 969
- 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:52,041
- What did you forget?
- 970
- 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:54,521
- Do you have my passport?
- 971
- 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:56,125
- Yeah, I've got it.
- 972
- 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:08,845
- It's like I said
- to the Genies...
- 973
- 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,765
- "I travel in style,
- or I don't travel at all."
- 974
- 00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:14,680
- Mom, we're going to Amsterdam!
- 975
- 00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:17,246
- We are going to
- Amsterdam, right now.
- 976
- 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:19,524
- Hello, Lancasters.
- 977
- 00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:23,526
- Gus. Hey.
- Nice to see you.
- 978
- 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:25,407
- I'll take that, sir.
- 979
- 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,289
- Gus, you're so inventive!
- 980
- 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:29,081
- Okay, Hazel Grace?
- 981
- 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,569
- Okay!
- 982
- 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:42,201
- What's in your nose?
- 983
- 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:43,321
- Jackie!
- 984
- 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:44,686
- I'm really sorry about that.
- 985
- 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:46,040
- No, it's totally fine.
- 986
- 00:52:46,240 --> 00:52:48,925
- It's called a "cannula."
- And it helps me breathe.
- 987
- 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:50,929
- See this little
- friend right here?
- 988
- 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:53,481
- He feeds oxygen
- through your tube.
- 989
- 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:55,090
- Will it help me breath, too?
- 990
- 00:52:55,240 --> 00:52:57,891
- Maybe. Do you want to try it?
- 991
- 00:52:58,920 --> 00:52:59,921
- Okay-
- 992
- 00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:04,641
- Come here.
- 993
- 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:08,531
- There ya go.
- 994
- 00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:10,285
- It tickles!
- 995
- 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:13,846
- Wow, yeah, that's something.
- 996
- 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:16,284
- I think I'm breathing better.
- 997
- 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,084
- I would love to give it to you,
- 998
- 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:19,804
- but I kind of
- could use the help.
- 999
- 00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:22,008
- Thanks for letting me try it.
- You're welcome.
- 1000
- 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:23,525
- All right, Jackie, let's go.
- 1001
- 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,085
- Thank you. Take care.
- Bye.
- 1002
- 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:28,841
- <i>Flight 1721 is now prepared to
- begin boarding at gate 46...</i>
- 1003
- 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:30,724
- I think that's us.
- That's us.
- 1004
- 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:32,121
- We are going to Amsterdam!
- 1005
- 00:53:32,240 --> 00:53:33,366
- Oh, my God.
- 1006
- 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:35,931
- Come on, help me.
- 1007
- 00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:39,131
- What, are they wet?
- Wet hands.
- 1008
- 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,240
- I'm sorry about that. Gross!
- Get outta here! Stop it!
- 1009
- 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:51,684
- Have you never been
- on a plane before?
- 1010
- 00:53:52,240 --> 00:53:53,241
- No.
- 1011
- 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:55,770
- It's exciting.
- 1012
- 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,331
- Sir?
- Uh-huh?
- 1013
- 00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:04,926
- There's no smoking
- on this plane.
- 1014
- 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:06,081
- Or any plane.
- 1015
- 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:07,845
- I don't smoke.
- 1016
- 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:09,684
- Yeah, it's just a metaphor.
- 1017
- 00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:10,966
- He puts the killing thing
- in his mouth...
- 1018
- 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:13,240
- but he doesn't actually give
- it the power to kill him.
- 1019
- 00:54:13,264 --> 00:54:15,650
- Well, that metaphor, it's
- prohibited on today's flight.
- 1020
- 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:18,800
- <i>Flight attendants,
- prepare for take off, please.</i>
- 1021
- 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:20,047
- Thanks.
- 1022
- 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:23,081
- Okay?
- 1023
- 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:27,004
- Gus, this is what it's like
- to drive in a car with you.
- 1024
- 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:28,570
- Ha-ha-ha-ha...
- 1025
- 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:31,527
- Oh...
- 1026
- 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,041
- Oh!
- 1027
- 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:43,283
- Oh, my God, we're flying.
- 1028
- 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,562
- We're flying!
- 1029
- 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:46,807
- Look at the ground!
- 1030
- 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:48,291
- Look.
- 1031
- 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,683
- Nothing has ever looked like
- this in all of human history!
- 1032
- 00:54:52,720 --> 00:54:54,563
- Look at the cars.
- They're like...
- 1033
- 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,284
- You two are so adorable.
- 1034
- 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:00,130
- We're just friends.
- 1035
- 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,249
- Well, she is, I'm not.
- 1036
- 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:05,167
- Oh, my!
- 1037
- 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:06,930
- Whoa!
- 1038
- 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:24,122
- <i>Get away from her, you bitch!</i>
- 1039
- 00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:51,729
- Look at this, Hazel.
- 1040
- 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:54,365
- This is so crazy.
- 1041
- 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:26,650
- Whoa.
- 1042
- 00:56:26,720 --> 00:56:27,721
- What?
- 1043
- 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:29,928
- Look at the stained glass.
- 1044
- 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,002
- It's amazing.
- 1045
- 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:33,850
- Oh, I'm gonna check us in.
- 1046
- 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:43,290
- We better get you dressed...
- 1047
- 00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,240
- because you have reservations
- for two tonight,
- 1048
- 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:49,090
- for dinner at Oranjee.
- Oh.
- 1049
- 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:53,290
- And it says, "Enjoy.
- Mr. Peter Van Houten."
- 1050
- 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,650
- So, I looked it up
- and it sounds amazing.
- 1051
- 00:56:56,800 --> 00:57:00,850
- The guide book says it's
- fancy and very romantic.
- 1052
- 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,082
- Right. Fancy...
- 1053
- 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:06,124
- Oh, God.
- 1054
- 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:08,847
- But, okay, what...
- 1055
- 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,124
- ...will you wear?
- 1056
- 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:14,811
- Is that for me?
- 1057
- 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:23,323
- Oh, my God.
- It's so beautiful.
- 1058
- 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:25,124
- I'm just saying.
- 1059
- 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:27,810
- You're just saying?
- 1060
- 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:29,923
- What, you're saying
- that you're totally fine...
- 1061
- 00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:33,402
- with your teenage daughter running
- free with an older boy...
- 1062
- 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,085
- in a city that's famous
- for its vice
- 1063
- 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:36,764
- and debauchery is
- totally fine with you?
- 1064
- 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:41,163
- Yeah, that's pretty much
- exactly what I'm saying.
- 1065
- 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:50,851
- Gus!
- 1066
- 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:53,566
- Oh, you look so handsome!
- 1067
- 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,128
- Thank you, ma'am.
- Wow.
- 1068
- 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:58,163
- Hazel, Gus is here...
- 1069
- 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:00,368
- looking incredible!
- 1070
- 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:05,526
- I hear this restaurant
- is unbelievable.
- 1071
- 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:17,246
- Wow.
- 1072
- 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:18,841
- What?
- 1073
- 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,005
- You look gorgeous.
- 1074
- 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:28,966
- Thanks.
- 1075
- 00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:40,846
- Whoa!
- 1076
- 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:52,120
- Wow.
- 1077
- 00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:11,886
- This is it.
- 1078
- 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:14,651
- Oranjee.
- Yeah, this is it.
- 1079
- 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:15,881
- Oh, yeah.
- 1080
- 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,047
- Your table,
- Mr. and Mrs. Waters.
- 1081
- 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:28,160
- Thank you.
- 1082
- 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:31,967
- Thanks, Gus.
- 1083
- 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:33,531
- You are very welcome.
- 1084
- 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:40,686
- The champagne
- is our gift. Enjoy.
- 1085
- 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:41,841
- Thank you.
- 1086
- 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:43,646
- Good evening.
- 1087
- 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:56,761
- <i>Voilà .</i>
- 1088
- 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:01,486
- Okay, Okay?
- 1089
- 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:11,841
- Whoa.
- 1090
- 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:16,124
- That is amazing.
- 1091
- 01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:17,611
- Do you know what
- Dom Pérignon said
- 1092
- 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,603
- after he invented champagne?
- 1093
- 01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:23,808
- "Come quickly," he said.
- "I'm tasting the stars."
- 1094
- 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:27,285
- Welcome to Oranjee.
- 1095
- 01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:30,967
- Would you like a menu, or will
- you have the chef's choice?
- 1096
- 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:34,161
- Chef's choice sounds wonderful.
- 1097
- 01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:36,602
- - Mmm.
- - And, sir, um...
- 1098
- 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:40,560
- something tells me we're gonna
- need a little bit more of this.
- 1099
- 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:42,802
- We have bottled all the
- stars for you this evening,
- 1100
- 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:44,370
- my young friends.
- 1101
- 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:52,889
- - Ooh!
- - I think that's ours.
- 1102
- 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:55,769
- Dragon carrot
- risotto for the lady.
- 1103
- 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:57,371
- Thank you.
- 1104
- 01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:00,007
- And for the gentleman.
- 1105
- 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,483
- Thank you.
- Enjoy.
- 1106
- 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:10,406
- Mmm.
- 1107
- 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:16,527
- I want this dragon carrot
- risotto to become a person...
- 1108
- 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:18,762
- so that I can take it
- to Vegas and marry it.
- 1109
- 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:26,766
- I like your suit.
- 1110
- 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:29,201
- Thank you. It's the first
- time I've ever worn it.
- 1111
- 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:30,960
- That's not the suit
- you wear to funerals?
- 1112
- 01:01:30,984 --> 01:01:32,041
- No.
- 1113
- 01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:33,770
- That one is not
- nearly this nice.
- 1114
- 01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:36,290
- When I first got sick...
- 1115
- 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,411
- they told me I had an 85 percent
- chance of being cancer-free.
- 1116
- 01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:41,487
- Great odds.
- 1117
- 01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:44,605
- But that meant a year of
- torture, the loss of my leg...
- 1118
- 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,121
- and, still, a 15 percent
- chance it might fail.
- 1119
- 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:49,206
- Just before the surgery...
- 1120
- 01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:53,490
- I asked my parents if I could
- buy a really nice suit.
- 1121
- 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:55,201
- So, it's your death suit.
- 1122
- 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:56,806
- That's what it is.
- 1123
- 01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:59,725
- I have one of those. I got it
- for my fifteenth birthday.
- 1124
- 01:01:59,880 --> 01:02:01,120
- A dress.
- 1125
- 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,321
- I don't necessarily think I'd
- wear it on a date, though.
- 1126
- 01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:08,606
- So, we're on a date?
- 1127
- 01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:13,368
- Hey, you watch it.
- 1128
- 01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:16,643
- We are Mr.
- And Mrs. Waters.
- 1129
- 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:19,400
- Oh. That's just because
- she can't speak English.
- 1130
- 01:02:19,424 --> 01:02:22,288
- We should be, though, if they ask.
- You know?
- 1131
- 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:23,800
- Remember what you
- said about Vegas?
- 1132
- 01:02:23,824 --> 01:02:24,824
- Yeah.
- 1133
- 01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:26,800
- Do you think I could
- join in on that deal?
- 1134
- 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:28,806
- God?
- 1135
- 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:30,206
- Maybe.
- 1136
- 01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:32,081
- How about angels?
- 1137
- 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:33,161
- Mmm, no.
- 1138
- 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:34,605
- Afterlife?
- Mmm...
- 1139
- 01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:35,727
- No.
- 1140
- 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:37,086
- Well, maybe.
- I don't know.
- 1141
- 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:39,160
- I guess I wouldn't go
- as far as to say "no"...
- 1142
- 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,811
- but I would like some evidence.
- 1143
- 01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:44,605
- What about you?
- 1144
- 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:46,809
- Absolutely.
- Really?
- 1145
- 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,611
- I mean, not like a heaven where
- you ride on a unicorn all day...
- 1146
- 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:51,842
- and live in a mansion
- made of clouds...
- 1147
- 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:55,209
- but yes, I definitely
- believe in something.
- 1148
- 01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:57,444
- I mean, otherwise...
- 1149
- 01:02:57,600 --> 01:02:59,284
- what's the point?
- 1150
- 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:03,048
- Maybe there is no point.
- 1151
- 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:04,925
- I won't accept that.
- 1152
- 01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:12,922
- I am in love with you.
- 1153
- 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:17,366
- You heard me.
- 1154
- 01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:23,361
- Augustus...
- 1155
- 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:24,925
- I am in love with you.
- 1156
- 01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:27,800
- And I know that love is just
- a shout into the void...
- 1157
- 01:03:27,824 --> 01:03:29,210
- and that oblivion is inevitable.
- 1158
- 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:30,850
- And that we're all doomed...
- 1159
- 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,731
- and that one day...
- 1160
- 01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:37,290
- all of our labors
- will be returned to dust.
- 1161
- 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,202
- And I know that
- the sun will swallow
- 1162
- 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:43,282
- the only Earth
- we will ever have.
- 1163
- 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:45,569
- And I am in love with you.
- 1164
- 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:50,486
- Sorry.
- 1165
- 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:03,161
- More stars?
- 1166
- 01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:05,401
- No, thank you.
- 1167
- 01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:07,642
- I think we'll just
- have the check.
- 1168
- 01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:08,926
- No, sir.
- 1169
- 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,571
- Your meal has been paid
- by Mr. Van Houten.
- 1170
- 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:18,365
- What?
- 1171
- 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,561
- I don't really get that shirt.
- 1172
- 01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:12,846
- Mmm.
- 1173
- 01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:15,168
- But Van Houten will get it.
- 1174
- 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:18,961
- There are, like, fifty Magritte
- references in An Imperial Affliction.
- 1175
- 01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:21,361
- "This is not a pipe."
- 1176
- 01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:22,761
- But it is a pipe.
- 1177
- 01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:24,286
- But it's not.
- 1178
- 01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:26,685
- It is a drawing of a pipe.
- 1179
- 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:27,841
- See?
- 1180
- 01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,209
- A drawing of a thing
- is not the thing itself.
- 1181
- 01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:34,564
- Nor is a T-shirt of a drawing
- of a thing, the thing itself.
- 1182
- 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:35,721
- Hey, you.
- 1183
- 01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:37,723
- When did you get so grown up?
- 1184
- 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:44,165
- Who's ready for some answers?
- 1185
- 01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:46,445
- Me!
- 1186
- 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:11,401
- This is it.
- 1187
- 01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:14,087
- I'm so excited,
- I can barely breathe.
- 1188
- 01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:16,325
- As opposed to normal?
- 1189
- 01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:18,883
- Get out of here.
- 1190
- 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:26,564
- Lidewij?
- 1191
- 01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:30,645
- Hi!
- Hi, I'm Augustus.
- 1192
- 01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:34,367
- Lidewij.
- Hazel.
- 1193
- 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:35,601
- Please, come in.
- 1194
- 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:36,801
- Thank you.
- 1195
- 01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:39,050
- Peter! They're here!
- 1196
- 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,248
- Who the hell is "they," Lidewij?
- 1197
- 01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:45,243
- They are Augustus and Hazel...
- 1198
- 01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:47,400
- the young fans with whom
- you've been corresponding.
- 1199
- 01:06:48,120 --> 01:06:49,406
- The Americans?
- 1200
- 01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:51,050
- You invited them.
- 1201
- 01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:53,690
- Please, come in.
- 1202
- 01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:55,760
- You know
- why I left America, Lidewij.
- 1203
- 01:06:57,240 --> 01:06:59,766
- To never have to
- encounter Americans.
- 1204
- 01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:02,330
- You're American.
- 1205
- 01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:04,206
- Incurably so.
- 1206
- 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:05,811
- Get rid of them.
- 1207
- 01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:08,723
- I will not do this, Peter.
- 1208
- 01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:10,770
- Please, be nice.
- 1209
- 01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:12,884
- Come in, please.
- 1210
- 01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:23,804
- Sorry, let me
- clear this for you.
- 1211
- 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:28,926
- Thank you.
- 1212
- 01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:35,646
- Which of you is Augustus Waters?
- 1213
- 01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:37,247
- I am.
- 1214
- 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:40,371
- And that's Hazel.
- 1215
- 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,240
- Mr. Van Houten, thank you so
- much for writing back to us.
- 1216
- 01:07:47,264 --> 01:07:48,644
- Clearly an error in judgment.
- 1217
- 01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:51,286
- Yours are the first missives
- to which I've replied,
- 1218
- 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:52,566
- and look where it got me.
- 1219
- 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:53,881
- Scotch?
- 1220
- 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:55,041
- Uh...
- 1221
- 01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:56,641
- No, thank you.
- 1222
- 01:07:57,840 --> 01:07:59,330
- Just me, then, Lidewij.
- 1223
- 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:01,448
- Another scotch and soda, please.
- 1224
- 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,448
- Perhaps some
- breakfast first, Peter?
- 1225
- 01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:08,210
- She thinks I have
- a drinking problem.
- 1226
- 01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:12,048
- I also think the Earth is round.
- 1227
- 01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:21,085
- So, you like my book.
- 1228
- 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:22,321
- We love your book.
- Yeah.
- 1229
- 01:08:22,480 --> 01:08:23,891
- We love it.
- 1230
- 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:25,361
- Augustus...
- 1231
- 01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:28,490
- He made his wish meeting
- you so that we could talk.
- 1232
- 01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:30,688
- - No pressure.
- - Yeah.
- 1233
- 01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:34,044
- Did you dress
- like her on purpose?
- 1234
- 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:36,841
- Kind of.
- 1235
- 01:08:37,480 --> 01:08:40,290
- And, incidentally, sir,
- we both really
- 1236
- 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:42,124
- wanted to thank you
- for dinner last night.
- 1237
- 01:08:42,280 --> 01:08:43,850
- And for the champagne.
- 1238
- 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:45,001
- It was amazing.
- 1239
- 01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:46,611
- It was magical.
- 1240
- 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:48,569
- We bought them
- dinner last night?
- 1241
- 01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:50,889
- It was our pleasure.
- 1242
- 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:56,560
- You've come a long way.
- 1243
- 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:00,203
- What can I do for you?
- 1244
- 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:02,369
- We have some questions...
- 1245
- 01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:05,410
- obviously, about what happens
- at the end of your book.
- 1246
- 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:08,201
- Uh, specifically to those
- who Anna leaves behind.
- 1247
- 01:09:08,360 --> 01:09:10,442
- Like her mom,
- the Dutch Tulip Man...
- 1248
- 01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:13,080
- How familiar are you
- with Swedish hip-hop?
- 1249
- 01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:16,364
- I would say, limited.
- 1250
- 01:09:16,480 --> 01:09:21,008
- Uh, Lidewij, play
- Bomfalleralla immediately.
- 1251
- 01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:24,325
- Okay-
- 1252
- 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:19,640
- We don't speak Swedish, sir.
- 1253
- 01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:21,086
- Who the hell speaks Swedish?
- 1254
- 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,528
- The important thing is not what
- nonsense the voices are saying...
- 1255
- 01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:26,842
- but what the voices are feeling.
- 1256
- 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:40,890
- Are you messing with us?
- 1257
- 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,486
- Like, is this some
- sort of performance?
- 1258
- 01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:45,526
- Gus, sit down.
- 1259
- 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:56,680
- All right, so at the end
- of the book, Anna's...
- 1260
- 01:10:56,704 --> 01:10:59,310
- Let's imagine
- you're racing a tortoise.
- 1261
- 01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:02,564
- The tortoise has
- a ten-yard head start.
- 1262
- 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:04,529
- In the time it takes you
- to run ten yards...
- 1263
- 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:07,968
- the tortoise has moved maybe
- one yard, and so on, forever.
- 1264
- 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:09,400
- You're faster than the tortoise,
- 1265
- 01:11:09,440 --> 01:11:11,647
- but you can never
- catch him, you see?
- 1266
- 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,280
- You can only decrease his lead.
- 1267
- 01:11:14,440 --> 01:11:16,920
- Now, certainly, you can
- run past the tortoise...
- 1268
- 01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:20,283
- as long as you don't contemplate
- the mechanics involved.
- 1269
- 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:23,087
- But the question
- of "how?"
- 1270
- 01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:24,924
- turns out to be
- so complicated...
- 1271
- 01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:27,009
- that no one really solved it...
- 1272
- 01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:30,642
- until Cantor's proof
- that some infinities
- 1273
- 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:32,245
- are bigger than
- other infinities.
- 1274
- 01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:38,769
- I assume that answers
- your question.
- 1275
- 01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:43,607
- Hazel, I'm sorry. I have
- no idea what's going on.
- 1276
- 01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:47,003
- Yet you seemed so intelligent
- in print, Mr. Waters.
- 1277
- 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:49,728
- Has the cancer found its
- way into your brain?
- 1278
- 01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:52,601
- Peter.
- 1279
- 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:57,248
- Can we, for one second,
- just focus on Anna?
- 1280
- 01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:58,606
- Please?
- 1281
- 01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:00,644
- I understand that the story ends
- 1282
- 01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:01,920
- in the middle of a sentence...
- 1283
- 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:05,521
- because she dies, or that she
- becomes too sick to continue...
- 1284
- 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:07,520
- I am not interested
- in talking about that book.
- 1285
- 01:12:07,590 --> 01:12:10,630
- But that doesn't mean that her family
- and friends don't have a future, right?
- 1286
- 01:12:10,654 --> 01:12:11,654
- Right?
- 1287
- 01:12:12,520 --> 01:12:13,806
- I said I'm not interested.
- 1288
- 01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:15,200
- But you promised!
- 1289
- 01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:17,522
- Nothing happens!
- They're fiction!
- 1290
- 01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:19,762
- They cease to exist the
- moment the novel ends.
- 1291
- 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:21,524
- But they can't!
- 1292
- 01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:23,560
- I get it in a literary sense
- or whatever, but...
- 1293
- 01:12:23,584 --> 01:12:25,024
- I can't do this, Lidewij.
- 1294
- 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:26,610
- It's impossible
- not to imagine what...
- 1295
- 01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:28,762
- I will not indulge
- your childish whims.
- 1296
- 01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:30,604
- I refuse to pity
- you in the manner
- 1297
- 01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:31,800
- in which you are accustomed.
- 1298
- 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:33,960
- I do not want your pity! VAN
- Of course you do!
- 1299
- 01:12:33,984 --> 01:12:36,207
- Like all sick kids, your
- existence depends on it.
- 1300
- 01:12:36,360 --> 01:12:39,125
- You are fated to live
- out your days... Peter!
- 1301
- 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:41,328
- ...as the child you
- were when diagnosed.
- 1302
- 01:12:41,480 --> 01:12:45,166
- A child who believes there is
- a life after a novel ends.
- 1303
- 01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:46,765
- And we as adults, we pity this.
- 1304
- 01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:50,282
- So, we pay for your treatments,
- your oxygen machines.
- 1305
- 01:12:50,440 --> 01:12:51,646
- Peter, that's enough.
- 1306
- 01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:55,811
- You are a side-effect
- to an evolutionary process...
- 1307
- 01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:58,088
- that cares little
- for individual lives.
- 1308
- 01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:00,607
- You are a failed
- experiment in mutation.
- 1309
- 01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:05,526
- Listen, douchepants...
- 1310
- 01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,280
- there is nothing that you're gonna
- tell me about my disease...
- 1311
- 01:13:08,304 --> 01:13:09,590
- that I don't already know.
- 1312
- 01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:12,361
- I came here for one thing
- and one thing only.
- 1313
- 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:14,802
- That is for you
- to tell me what happens
- 1314
- 01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:16,928
- at the end of this goddamn book!
- 1315
- 01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:18,287
- I can't tell you.
- 1316
- 01:13:18,440 --> 01:13:19,487
- Bullshit!
- I can't.
- 1317
- 01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:21,200
- Then make something up!
- 1318
- 01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:24,729
- I want you to leave.
- 1319
- 01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:43,680
- Have you ever stopped
- to ask yourself...
- 1320
- 01:13:43,704 --> 01:13:46,275
- why you care so much
- about your silly questions?
- 1321
- 01:13:46,480 --> 01:13:48,244
- Oh, go fuck yourself.
- 1322
- 01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:04,042
- Hey, it's okay.
- 1323
- 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:05,361
- It's okay.
- 1324
- 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:07,491
- I'll write you a sequel.
- 1325
- 01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:09,885
- All right?
- I'll write you a sequel.
- 1326
- 01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,805
- It'll be better than any piece of
- shit that drunk guy could write.
- 1327
- 01:14:13,480 --> 01:14:16,529
- It'll have blood, and
- guts, and sacrifice.
- 1328
- 01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:17,846
- You'll love it.
- 1329
- 01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:22,288
- So sorry that I spent your
- wish on that asshole.
- 1330
- 01:14:22,440 --> 01:14:25,046
- No, you did not spend it on him.
- You spent it on us.
- 1331
- 01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:32,168
- Hazel and Augustus!
- 1332
- 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:34,686
- I'm very sorry.
- 1333
- 01:14:36,080 --> 01:14:39,289
- Circumstance has made him cruel.
- 1334
- 01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:41,124
- I thought meeting you
- would help him...
- 1335
- 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:44,404
- that he could see that his
- work has shaped real lives.
- 1336
- 01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:48,690
- But... I'm very sorry.
- 1337
- 01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:51,404
- Perhaps we can do
- some sightseeing?
- 1338
- 01:14:51,480 --> 01:14:52,970
- Have you been to
- the Anne Frank house?
- 1339
- 01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:54,610
- I'm not going anywhere
- with that man.
- 1340
- 01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:55,926
- No.
- 1341
- 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:57,729
- He is not invited.
- 1342
- 01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:10,401
- I'm afraid there's no elevator.
- 1343
- 01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,202
- Oh. That's all right.
- 1344
- 01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:14,651
- There are many stairs.
- 1345
- 01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:15,801
- Steep stairs.
- I can do it.
- 1346
- 01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:18,770
- Hazel, we don't have to...
- I can do it.
- 1347
- 01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:20,046
- Let's go.
- 1348
- 01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:28,449
- <i>Frank's family
- came from Frankfurt, in Germany.</i>
- 1349
- 01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:31,524
- <i>Anne Frank's diary would
- become world famous.</i>
- 1350
- 01:15:32,440 --> 01:15:35,205
- <i>It's difficult
- in times like these.</i>
- 1351
- 01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:39,441
- <i>It's a wonder I haven't
- abandoned all my ideals.</i>
- 1352
- 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:42,444
- <i>They seem so absurd
- and impractical...</i>
- 1353
- 01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,964
- <i>yet I cling to them
- because I still believe...</i>
- 1354
- 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:51,203
- <i>in spite of everything, that
- people are truly good at heart.</i>
- 1355
- 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,929
- <i>It's utterly impossible
- for me to build my life...</i>
- 1356
- 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:01,446
- Shall we?
- 1357
- 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:03,803
- - Yeah.
- - Yeah.
- 1358
- 01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:09,040
- Hazel, I'll carry it
- if you want.
- 1359
- 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:10,924
- I got it.
- 1360
- 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:29,129
- Wow.
- 1361
- 01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,682
- So this is the actual bookcase
- that hid the Frank family.
- 1362
- 01:16:34,480 --> 01:16:35,481
- Whoa.
- 1363
- 01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:55,961
- I got it.
- 1364
- 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:57,804
- Thank you.
- 1365
- 01:17:00,880 --> 01:17:03,884
- <i>We're much too young
- to deal with these problems...</i>
- 1366
- 01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:06,646
- <i>but they keep thrusting
- themselves on</i> us...
- 1367
- 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:10,725
- <i>until, finally, we're forced
- to think up a solution.</i>
- 1368
- 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:11,961
- You okay, Hazel?
- 1369
- 01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:13,485
- Yeah.
- 1370
- 01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:15,006
- Don't worry, take your time.
- 1371
- 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:16,889
- Sorry.
- 1372
- 01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:18,041
- Yeah?
- 1373
- 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:19,201
- Yeah.
- 1374
- 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:31,562
- <i>And yet,
- when I look up at the sky...</i>
- 1375
- 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:35,361
- <i>I somehow feel that everything
- will change for the better.</i>
- 1376
- 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:38,404
- <i>That this cruelty,
- too, will end.</i>
- 1377
- 01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:39,561
- You Okay?
- 1378
- 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:41,847
- Yeah.
- 1379
- 01:17:59,880 --> 01:18:01,689
- Hazel, I think that's enough.
- 1380
- 01:18:01,840 --> 01:18:03,080
- You don't need...
- You know?
- 1381
- 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:04,446
- Uh-huh.
- 1382
- 01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:06,608
- I got this.
- 1383
- 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:17,444
- <i>All is as it should be.</i>
- 1384
- 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:25,809
- <i>God wishes to see people happy.</i>
- 1385
- 01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:29,442
- <i>Where there is hope...
- Hazel.</i>
- 1386
- 01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:33,925
- <i>...there is life.</i>
- 1387
- 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:50,962
- Well done.
- Yeah.
- 1388
- 01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:52,207
- You Okay?
- 1389
- 01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:53,327
- Yeah.
- 1390
- 01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:56,481
- This is it, look.
- 1391
- 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:01,925
- All right?
- 1392
- 01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:04,651
- Oh, yeah.
- Oh, my God.
- 1393
- 01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:07,321
- Thanks.
- 1394
- 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:21,085
- The only member of the
- Frank family to survive was Otto.
- 1395
- 01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:25,128
- Anne's father.
- 1396
- 01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:28,365
- <i>At</i> such moments...
- 1397
- 01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:31,921
- <i>...I can't think about
- the misery...</i>
- 1398
- 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:34,648
- <i>but about the beauty
- that still remains.</i>
- 1399
- 01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:40,967
- <i>Try to recapture the
- happiness within yourself.</i>
- 1400
- 01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:45,002
- <i>Think of all the beauty
- in everything around you...</i>
- 1401
- 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:49,202
- <i>and be happy.</i>
- 1402
- 01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:33,685
- Bravo.
- 1403
- 01:20:47,440 --> 01:20:50,284
- <i>I fell in love with
- him the way you fall asleep.</i>
- 1404
- 01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:55,720
- <i>Slowly, and then all at once.</i>
- 1405
- 01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:22,284
- It just sort of ends right above
- where the knee would be...
- 1406
- 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:24,041
- and tapers off.
- 1407
- 01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:26,041
- What?
- 1408
- 01:21:26,240 --> 01:21:27,969
- My leg.
- 1409
- 01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:30,767
- You know, just so
- you're prepared.
- 1410
- 01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:32,287
- Gus...
- 1411
- 01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:35,442
- get over yourself.
- 1412
- 01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:52,727
- Wait.
- 1413
- 01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:55,485
- I can't, it's stuck.
- 1414
- 01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:07,644
- I love you so
- much, Augustus Waters.
- 1415
- 01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:10,366
- I love you too, Hazel Grace.
- 1416
- 01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:12,922
- So, so much.
- 1417
- 01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:23,648
- Augustus, I can't breathe.
- 1418
- 01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:26,444
- It's okay.
- 1419
- 01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:37,325
- Hazel.
- 1420
- 01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:44,285
- You're so beautiful.
- 1421
- 01:22:44,480 --> 01:22:45,527
- Stop.
- 1422
- 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:47,569
- No, you're so beautiful.
- 1423
- 01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:50,848
- I'm so lucky.
- 1424
- 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:52,889
- I'm so lucky.
- 1425
- 01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:09,041
- <i>Oh, my God.</i>
- 1426
- 01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:13,720
- I can't believe you
- called him "douchepants."
- 1427
- 01:24:13,800 --> 01:24:15,040
- - I know!
- - You did?
- 1428
- 01:24:15,480 --> 01:24:16,680
- How did you come up with that?
- 1429
- 01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:18,564
- I don't know, it just came out.
- 1430
- 01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:20,051
- I was so angry.
- 1431
- 01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:21,241
- What a monster.
- 1432
- 01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:22,446
- Mom, it was awful.
- 1433
- 01:24:22,600 --> 01:24:23,931
- Then what happened?
- 1434
- 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:25,963
- We went to Anne Frank House.
- 1435
- 01:24:26,080 --> 01:24:27,081
- Oh, you did?
- 1436
- 01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:28,241
- It was really awesome.
- Was that incredible?
- 1437
- 01:24:28,320 --> 01:24:29,321
- It was so awesome.
- 1438
- 01:24:29,480 --> 01:24:30,481
- And after that?
- 1439
- 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:32,641
- We just walked around.
- 1440
- 01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:38,570
- That sounds lovely.
- 1441
- 01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:40,330
- Oh, my gosh,
- 1442
- 01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:41,561
- we probably still have
- a few hours, right?
- 1443
- 01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:43,320
- Should we go to
- the Van Gogh Museum?
- 1444
- 01:24:43,400 --> 01:24:44,811
- Whatever you want.
- 1445
- 01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:47,161
- Probably don't have time
- to do everything, but...
- 1446
- 01:24:47,320 --> 01:24:50,529
- You're just gonna have
- to come back, is all.
- 1447
- 01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:54,967
- Could you just not be
- ridiculous right now, please?
- 1448
- 01:24:55,960 --> 01:24:59,009
- Hazel, I'm not being ridiculous.
- 1449
- 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,162
- I'm being positive.
- 1450
- 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:06,126
- Mrs. Lancaster?
- 1451
- 01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:07,201
- Yeah?
- 1452
- 01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:10,364
- Do you think Hazel and I can
- just have a little time alone?
- 1453
- 01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:15,170
- Sure, Gus.
- 1454
- 01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:17,368
- Um, lam gonna run to the room...
- 1455
- 01:25:17,520 --> 01:25:21,844
- and be ready whenever you
- guys want to do something.
- 1456
- 01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:30,042
- Want to go for a walk?
- 1457
- 01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:17,569
- What is it?
- 1458
- 01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:24,408
- Just before you went into the
- hospital, there was this...
- 1459
- 01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,089
- I felt an ache in my hip.
- 1460
- 01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:36,762
- So, I had a PET scan...
- 1461
- 01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:42,531
- and it lit up like
- a Christmas tree.
- 1462
- 01:26:48,440 --> 01:26:51,569
- The lining of my chest
- and my liver...
- 1463
- 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:55,602
- Everywhere.
- 1464
- 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:05,608
- I'm sorry.
- 1465
- 01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:11,247
- I should've told you.
- 1466
- 01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:29,684
- It's so unfair.
- 1467
- 01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:40,162
- Apparently, the world is not
- a wish-granting factory.
- 1468
- 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:56,689
- Hey, listen.
- 1469
- 01:27:57,600 --> 01:27:59,320
- Don't you worry about me,
- Hazel Grace, okay?
- 1470
- 01:27:59,440 --> 01:28:01,204
- I'm gonna find a way
- to hang around here
- 1471
- 01:28:01,280 --> 01:28:02,480
- and annoy you for a long time.
- 1472
- 01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:13,890
- Are you in pain?
- 1473
- 01:28:14,040 --> 01:28:15,041
- No.
- 1474
- 01:28:17,040 --> 01:28:18,724
- I'm okay.
- 1475
- 01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:21,725
- You're okay?
- 1476
- 01:28:24,480 --> 01:28:26,209
- Okay-
- 1477
- 01:28:33,320 --> 01:28:35,891
- I don't suppose you can
- just forget about this?
- 1478
- 01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:40,085
- You know, just treat
- me like I'm not dying.
- 1479
- 01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:44,161
- I don't think you're
- dying, Augustus.
- 1480
- 01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:47,651
- You've just got
- a touch of cancer.
- 1481
- 01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:57,084
- Would it be
- absolutely ludicrous...
- 1482
- 01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:00,084
- if we just made out?
- 1483
- 01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:01,930
- Right now?
- 1484
- 01:29:03,080 --> 01:29:04,923
- Probably.
- 1485
- 01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:42,809
- On...
- 1486
- 01:30:13,640 --> 01:30:15,005
- So how are your eyes, Isaac?
- 1487
- 01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:16,161
- They're good.
- 1488
- 01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:18,449
- They're not in my head,
- is the only problem.
- 1489
- 01:30:18,640 --> 01:30:19,846
- Besides that...
- 1490
- 01:30:20,440 --> 01:30:23,808
- Well, um, it appears my entire
- body's made out of cancer now.
- 1491
- 01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:25,689
- So, sorry to
- one-up you, dude.
- 1492
- 01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:29,081
- Did you, uh...
- write his eulogy yet?
- 1493
- 01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:30,161
- Dude.
- What?
- 1494
- 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:33,290
- What? I haven't told
- her yet, Isaac.
- 1495
- 01:30:33,440 --> 01:30:34,520
- What are you talking about?
- 1496
- 01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:35,887
- Oh.
- 1497
- 01:30:35,960 --> 01:30:37,007
- Sorry.
- 1498
- 01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:38,531
- Augustus?
- 1499
- 01:30:39,680 --> 01:30:41,682
- I need speakers at my funeral.
- 1500
- 01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:44,247
- So, I was hoping
- that you and Isaac,
- 1501
- 01:30:44,320 --> 01:30:46,288
- but mostly you...
- 1502
- 01:30:47,360 --> 01:30:50,250
- would be, um,
- 1503
- 01:30:50,320 --> 01:30:52,129
- kind enough
- to whip something up.
- 1504
- 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:54,448
- I would love to do that.
- 1505
- 01:30:57,480 --> 01:30:59,050
- Thank you.
- 1506
- 01:31:05,360 --> 01:31:07,044
- You guys are cute.
- 1507
- 01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:08,531
- Makes me sick.
- 1508
- 01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:11,640
- You guys are gross.
- 1509
- 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:13,484
- Have you heard from Monica?
- 1510
- 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:15,051
- Nope, not a thing.
- 1511
- 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:17,280
- She hasn't even texted you
- to make sure you're okay?
- 1512
- 01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:19,050
- Not once.
- I hate that girl.
- 1513
- 01:31:19,240 --> 01:31:20,560
- But there are tons
- of other girls.
- 1514
- 01:31:20,639 --> 01:31:22,119
- You guys don't have
- to worry about me.
- 1515
- 01:31:22,143 --> 01:31:24,486
- In support group,
- there's this new girl...
- 1516
- 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:25,840
- and she has these humongous...
- 1517
- 01:31:27,400 --> 01:31:29,323
- How do you even know that?
- 1518
- 01:31:30,080 --> 01:31:31,844
- I'm blind, but
- I'm not that blind.
- 1519
- 01:31:32,240 --> 01:31:33,924
- Hazel Grace?
- Hmm.
- 1520
- 01:31:35,040 --> 01:31:37,247
- Do you happen to
- have five dollars?
- 1521
- 01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:50,570
- Okay, so, now what?
- 1522
- 01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:51,926
- Hey, guys?
- 1523
- 01:31:52,080 --> 01:31:54,447
- I smell eggs. That eggs?
- 1524
- 01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:03,206
- Is it there?
- 1525
- 01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:04,920
- It's there.
- Mmm-hmm.
- 1526
- 01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:07,725
- I'm nervous.
- 1527
- 01:32:07,880 --> 01:32:08,881
- Nervous?
- 1528
- 01:32:09,120 --> 01:32:10,281
- Is Monica in there?
- 1529
- 01:32:10,440 --> 01:32:11,965
- It doesn't matter
- where Monica is.
- 1530
- 01:32:12,120 --> 01:32:14,122
- This is not about Monica.
- This is about you.
- 1531
- 01:32:14,280 --> 01:32:16,601
- Okay. Can I have an egg?
- Hazel Grace...
- 1532
- 01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:17,847
- egg me.
- 1533
- 01:32:17,960 --> 01:32:18,961
- Egged.
- 1534
- 01:32:19,080 --> 01:32:20,206
- Isaac.
- 1535
- 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:26,246
- All right, here we go.
- 1536
- 01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:27,880
- - You got this.
- - All right. Come on.
- 1537
- 01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:33,291
- I didn't hear anything.
- 1538
- 01:32:33,480 --> 01:32:35,209
- It's all right. A little
- more to your left.
- 1539
- 01:32:36,120 --> 01:32:38,240
- Wait, throw to my left, or
- should I aim a little left?
- 1540
- 01:32:38,264 --> 01:32:39,264
- Aim left.
- 1541
- 01:32:39,440 --> 01:32:40,771
- Okay.
- Left-er.
- 1542
- 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:42,800
- Gus, I think we should
- wait until dark.
- 1543
- 01:32:42,824 --> 01:32:44,349
- It's all dark to Isaac.
- 1544
- 01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:47,241
- Dude, I'm not deaf.
- I'm just blind.
- 1545
- 01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:48,925
- So I can hear when you
- make fun of my disability.
- 1546
- 01:32:49,120 --> 01:32:50,406
- I'm sorry.
- And I don't love it.
- 1547
- 01:32:50,800 --> 01:32:52,484
- Where do I throw?
- Just throw hard.
- 1548
- 01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:53,641
- Yes.
- 1549
- 01:32:54,080 --> 01:32:55,445
- Yes!
- Yeah!
- 1550
- 01:32:55,600 --> 01:32:56,647
- What? What?
- 1551
- 01:32:56,840 --> 01:32:58,330
- I hit it! I hit it!
- 1552
- 01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:01,120
- Now I know exactly
- where to line it up.
- 1553
- 01:33:01,144 --> 01:33:02,904
- That was so exhilarating!
- 1554
- 01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:05,610
- Keep it going-
- Keep going-
- 1555
- 01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:08,920
- Keep throwing, keep throwing.
- 1556
- 01:33:08,944 --> 01:33:10,544
- Give me more, give me
- more, give me more!
- 1557
- 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:13,081
- Oh!
- 1558
- 01:33:13,440 --> 01:33:14,521
- Oh, Stop, stop, stop!
- 1559
- 01:33:14,760 --> 01:33:16,000
- Isaac.
- Oh.
- 1560
- 01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:20,650
- Hello. Are you
- Monica's mother?
- 1561
- 01:33:20,840 --> 01:33:22,842
- I am.
- Hello, ma'am.
- 1562
- 01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:24,720
- Your daughter, she's done
- a great injustice.
- 1563
- 01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:26,490
- So we've come here
- seeking revenge.
- 1564
- 01:33:27,160 --> 01:33:28,600
- You see, we may not
- look like much...
- 1565
- 01:33:28,760 --> 01:33:31,366
- but between the three of us, we
- have five legs, four eyes...
- 1566
- 01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:33,284
- and two-and-a-half
- working pairs of lungs.
- 1567
- 01:33:33,440 --> 01:33:35,602
- But we also have
- two dozen eggs...
- 1568
- 01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:39,287
- so if I were you,
- I would go back inside.
- 1569
- 01:33:44,600 --> 01:33:46,204
- Dude, it actually worked?
- Yep.
- 1570
- 01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:49,160
- That was the stupidest speech
- I've ever... That actually worked?
- 1571
- 01:33:49,184 --> 01:33:51,505
- There you go.
- Hold on.
- 1572
- 01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:02,367
- This feels so good!
- 1573
- 01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:33,606
- Augustus?
- 1574
- 01:34:33,760 --> 01:34:35,603
- Hazel Grace.
- 1575
- 01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:37,683
- Hi.
- 1576
- 01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:41,162
- Oh, my God.
- Hi, hi. I love you.
- 1577
- 01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:43,442
- <i>I'm at the gas station.</i>
- 1578
- 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:44,560
- You're what?
- 1579
- 01:34:44,600 --> 01:34:45,840
- <i>Something is wrong.</i>
- 1580
- 01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:47,570
- <i>You gotta...</i>
- 1581
- 01:34:48,080 --> 01:34:50,242
- <i>Can you come?
- Can you come and help me?</i>
- 1582
- 01:35:02,960 --> 01:35:04,564
- Gus!
- 1583
- 01:35:06,440 --> 01:35:07,441
- Gus.
- 1584
- 01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:10,809
- Babe, what's going on?
- 1585
- 01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:13,641
- Look.
- 1586
- 01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:14,801
- Gus, it's infected.
- 1587
- 01:35:18,240 --> 01:35:20,288
- Take a deep breath.
- 1588
- 01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:24,131
- Gus, I have to call somebody.
- 1589
- 01:35:24,400 --> 01:35:26,607
- No, no. Please don't call
- 9-1-1. Please.
- 1590
- 01:35:26,760 --> 01:35:28,091
- Don't call my parents or 9...
- 1591
- 01:35:28,280 --> 01:35:29,920
- I will never forgive you
- if you call them.
- 1592
- 01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:31,120
- Gus, what are you doing here?
- 1593
- 01:35:31,280 --> 01:35:32,645
- What are you doing here?
- 1594
- 01:35:33,400 --> 01:35:35,323
- I wanted to buy cigarettes.
- 1595
- 01:35:36,120 --> 01:35:37,600
- I don't know what
- happened to my pack.
- 1596
- 01:35:37,624 --> 01:35:39,403
- I might have lost
- it or something,
- 1597
- 01:35:39,480 --> 01:35:40,811
- or they took it, but I just...
- 1598
- 01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:45,163
- I wanted to do something
- for myself, you know?
- 1599
- 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:46,526
- I wanted to do it myself.
- 1600
- 01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:48,201
- I have to call 9-1-1.
- No!
- 1601
- 01:35:48,280 --> 01:35:49,441
- I have to.
- 1602
- 01:35:49,520 --> 01:35:50,806
- No!
- 1603
- 01:35:52,480 --> 01:35:55,689
- Hi, 9-1-1?
- Um, we need an ambulance.
- 1604
- 01:35:55,840 --> 01:35:58,525
- I hate myself!
- 1605
- 01:35:58,840 --> 01:36:00,683
- My name is
- Hazel Grace Lancaster.
- 1606
- 01:36:01,000 --> 01:36:02,001
- Please hurry.
- 1607
- 01:36:02,160 --> 01:36:04,527
- We're in a silver Jeep at
- the gas station.
- 1608
- 01:36:04,680 --> 01:36:06,808
- <i>I wish I could say
- that Augustus Waters</i>
- 1609
- 01:36:06,880 --> 01:36:08,962
- <i>kept his sense of
- humor until the end.</i>
- 1610
- 01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:13,371
- <i>That not for a single moment
- did his courage waver.</i>
- 1611
- 01:36:14,400 --> 01:36:15,845
- <i>But that is not what happened.</i>
- 1612
- 01:36:25,840 --> 01:36:27,604
- It hurts so much.
- 1613
- 01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:29,888
- I'm so stupid.
- 1614
- 01:36:40,560 --> 01:36:43,404
- Baby, it's okay. It's okay.
- 1615
- 01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:50,125
- Hazel?
- 1616
- 01:36:51,920 --> 01:36:53,490
- Will you tell me a story?
- 1617
- 01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:55,045
- A story?
- 1618
- 01:36:56,560 --> 01:36:58,722
- Or, like, a poem?
- 1619
- 01:36:59,160 --> 01:37:02,642
- I do know...
- I... I know a poem.
- 1620
- 01:37:04,640 --> 01:37:06,404
- Will you tell me it?
- 1621
- 01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:12,608
- The Red Wheelbarrow

- 1622

- That's it? Is that all?
- 1626
- 01:37:37,520 --> 01:37:40,126
- No, no, no, of course not.
- Of course not.

- He's had a tough night, Hazel.

- His blood pressure's low.

- His heart...
- 1637
- 01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:06,725
- What about the chemo?
- 1638
- 01:39:07,520 --> 01:39:09,921
- They are gonna stop the chemo.
- 1639
- 01:39:16,080 --> 01:39:17,411
- Can I see him?
- 1640
- 01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:22,489
- We'll tell him you were here.

- 01:39:22,760 --> 01:39:24,205
- Yeah.
- Okay.

- Yeah.

- I'm just gonna hang out for
- a while, if you don't mind.

- 01:40:03,000 --> 01:40:04,411
- Here we go, bud.
- 1647
- 01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:10,131
- Good?
- All right, sweetie.
- 1648
- 01:40:10,280 --> 01:40:11,611
- Okay-
- 1649
- 01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:20,641
- Hi.
- 1650
- 01:40:59,000 --> 01:41:00,843
- What are you thinking about?
- 1651
- 01:41:02,400 --> 01:41:03,401
- Oblivion.
- 1652
- 01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:07,685
- I know it's kid's stuff
- or whatever, but...
- 1653
- 01:41:11,120 --> 01:41:13,248
- I always thought
- I would be a hero.
- 1654
- 01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:15,680
- I always thought I'd have
- a grand story to tell.
- 1655
- 01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:18,331
- You know, something they would
- publish in all the papers, and...
- 1656
- 01:41:19,960 --> 01:41:22,691
- I mean, I was supposed
- to be special.
- 1657
- 01:41:23,960 --> 01:41:25,769
- You are special, Augustus.
- 1658
- 01:41:25,920 --> 01:41:26,921
- Yeah, I know. But...
- 1659
- 01:41:27,640 --> 01:41:29,051
- you know what I mean.
- 1660
- 01:41:29,400 --> 01:41:32,085
- I do know what you mean,
- I just don't agree with you.
- 1661
- 01:41:37,640 --> 01:41:40,041
- You know this obsession you
- have with being remembered?
- 1662
- 01:41:40,680 --> 01:41:43,001
- Don't get mad.
- I am mad.
- 1663
- 01:41:44,240 --> 01:41:46,846
- I'm mad because I think you're special.
- And is that not enough?
- 1664
- 01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:51,560
- You think that the only way
- to lead a meaningful life...
- 1665
- 01:41:51,600 --> 01:41:55,571
- is for everyone to remember
- you, for everyone to love you.
- 1666
- 01:41:56,040 --> 01:41:59,089
- Guess what, Gus.
- This is your life, okay?
- 1667
- 01:41:59,240 --> 01:42:00,924
- This is all you get.
- 1668
- 01:42:01,360 --> 01:42:03,408
- You get me,
- and you get your family,
- 1669
- 01:42:03,480 --> 01:42:05,528
- and you get this world,
- and that's it.
- 1670
- 01:42:05,720 --> 01:42:08,007
- And if that's not
- enough for you,
- 1671
- 01:42:08,080 --> 01:42:10,321
- then I'm sorry,
- but it's not nothing.
- 1672
- 01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:14,728
- Because I love you.
- 1673
- 01:42:16,520 --> 01:42:18,761
- And I'm gonna remember you.
- 1674
- 01:42:22,480 --> 01:42:24,960
- I'm sorry. You're right.
- 1675
- 01:42:25,440 --> 01:42:27,329
- I just wish you
- would be happy with that.
- 1676
- 01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:28,960
- Hey-
- 1677
- 01:42:44,960 --> 01:42:47,167
- It's a good life, Hazel Grace.
- 1678
- 01:42:51,600 --> 01:42:53,602
- It's not over yet, you know.
- 1679
- 01:43:03,640 --> 01:43:04,687
- Oh, Augustus.
- 1680
- 01:43:04,840 --> 01:43:07,923
- <i>One of the less bullshitty
- conventions of the cancer genre...</i>
- 1681
- 01:43:08,080 --> 01:43:11,846
- <i>is the convention known as
- the "Last Good Day"...</i>
- 1682
- 01:43:12,280 --> 01:43:16,046
- <i>when it seems like the inexorable
- decline has suddenly plateaued...</i>
- 1683
- 01:43:16,200 --> 01:43:19,602
- <i>when the pain is,
- just for a minute, bearable.</i>
- 1684
- 01:43:20,040 --> 01:43:22,805
- <i>The problem, of course, is that
- there's no way of knowing...</i>
- 1685
- 01:43:22,960 --> 01:43:24,760
- <i>that your last good day
- is your last good day.</i>
- 1686
- 01:43:26,400 --> 01:43:29,802
- <i>At the time, it's just
- another decent day.</i>
- 1687
- 01:43:36,600 --> 01:43:38,170
- Hello, Augustus.
- 1688
- 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:40,846
- <i>Good evening, Hazel Grace.</i>
- 1689
- 01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:43,167
- <i>A quick question for you.</i>
- 1690
- 01:43:43,360 --> 01:43:45,522
- <i>Did you ever write that eulogy
- I asked you to prepare?</i>
- 1691
- 01:43:46,720 --> 01:43:47,926
- I may have.
- 1692
- 01:43:48,080 --> 01:43:49,800
- <i>Do you think you could
- find your way down...</i>
- 1693
- 01:43:49,954 --> 01:43:52,116
- <i>to the literal Heart of Jesus
- in the next few minutes?</i>
- 1694
- 01:43:52,274 --> 01:43:54,047
- Maybe. ls everything okay?
- 1695
- 01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:56,009
- <i>I love you, Hazel Grace.</i>
- 1696
- 01:43:59,160 --> 01:44:00,969
- Can I have the keys? Oh.
- 1697
- 01:44:01,480 --> 01:44:03,847
- Where you going? We're gonna eat something.
- I have to go.
- 1698
- 01:44:03,920 --> 01:44:06,120
- Hazel, you have to be hungry.
- You didn't even eat lunch.
- 1699
- 01:44:06,160 --> 01:44:07,161
- I'm just not hungry.
- 1700
- 01:44:07,320 --> 01:44:09,049
- Hazel, you cannot not eat.
- 1701
- 01:44:09,200 --> 01:44:10,240
- I'm aggressively
- un-hungry.
- 1702
- 01:44:10,360 --> 01:44:13,011
- Hazel, I know Gus is sick, but you
- got to take care of yourself.
- 1703
- 01:44:13,160 --> 01:44:14,440
- This has nothing to do with Gus.
- 1704
- 01:44:14,560 --> 01:44:16,040
- Well, then you've
- got to stay healthy.
- 1705
- 01:44:16,064 --> 01:44:18,008
- Come on, just eat
- something, honey.
- 1706
- 01:44:18,160 --> 01:44:19,491
- "Stay healthy"?
- 1707
- 01:44:19,880 --> 01:44:22,406
- Okay, I'm not healthy,
- and I'm gonna die.
- 1708
- 01:44:22,560 --> 01:44:24,449
- Do you realize that? I'm dying,
- and you're gonna be here...
- 1709
- 01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:27,205
- and you're not gonna have anyone
- to look after, or hover around...
- 1710
- 01:44:27,320 --> 01:44:28,924
- and you're not gonna be a mother
- anymore, and I'm sorry...
- 1711
- 01:44:29,000 --> 01:44:30,560
- but there's nothing
- I can do about that.
- 1712
- 01:44:30,680 --> 01:44:31,761
- So, can I please go?
- 1713
- 01:44:31,920 --> 01:44:33,604
- Why would you say that to me?
- 1714
- 01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:35,091
- Because you said that.
- 1715
- 01:44:35,240 --> 01:44:36,765
- What are you talking about?
- 1716
- 01:44:36,920 --> 01:44:38,285
- In the ICU.
- 1717
- 01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:41,806
- Hazel...
- 1718
- 01:44:43,320 --> 01:44:45,243
- That's not the truth.
- I was wrong.
- 1719
- 01:44:46,600 --> 01:44:47,806
- All right?
- 1720
- 01:44:48,120 --> 01:44:49,770
- Even if you died...
- 1721
- 01:44:50,120 --> 01:44:51,281
- "When."
- 1722
- 01:44:55,760 --> 01:44:57,569
- Even when you die...
- 1723
- 01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:01,963
- I'll always be your mother.
- 1724
- 01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:06,921
- It's the greatest
- thing I'll ever be.
- 1725
- 01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:10,370
- That is my biggest fear, Mom.
- 1726
- 01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:12,251
- When I am gone...
- 1727
- 01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:14,801
- you're not gonna
- have a life anymore.
- 1728
- 01:45:14,960 --> 01:45:17,160
- You're just gonna sit and
- you're gonna stare at walls...
- 1729
- 01:45:17,184 --> 01:45:18,928
- or you're gonna
- off yourselves or...
- 1730
- 01:45:19,120 --> 01:45:22,169
- Hazel, honey,
- we're not gonna do that.
- 1731
- 01:45:23,920 --> 01:45:25,445
- Losing you...
- 1732
- 01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:30,444
- That is gonna hurt like hell.
- 1733
- 01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:37,127
- But you of all people know it's
- possible to live with pain.
- 1734
- 01:45:40,240 --> 01:45:41,810
- You just do it.
- 1735
- 01:45:46,240 --> 01:45:50,404
- I'm taking classes
- in social work.
- 1736
- 01:45:50,960 --> 01:45:52,291
- Wait, you're what?
- 1737
- 01:45:52,880 --> 01:45:53,881
- Yeah, um...
- 1738
- 01:45:55,960 --> 01:45:57,920
- You know, if I can take
- what we've been through...
- 1739
- 01:45:57,944 --> 01:46:01,426
- and help other people,
- maybe counsel families...
- 1740
- 01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:03,964
- Mom, how could you
- not tell me this?
- 1741
- 01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:06,327
- We didn't want you
- to feel abandoned.
- 1742
- 01:46:06,480 --> 01:46:07,970
- Feel abandoned?
- 1743
- 01:46:09,840 --> 01:46:11,490
- You guys, this is...
- 1744
- 01:46:15,000 --> 01:46:16,889
- This is the best news.
- 1745
- 01:46:17,200 --> 01:46:18,440
- You go.
- 1746
- 01:46:20,200 --> 01:46:21,201
- Okay?
- 1747
- 01:46:23,800 --> 01:46:24,961
- Baby.
- 1748
- 01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:28,007
- Straight ahead, yeah.
- 1749
- 01:46:28,160 --> 01:46:29,525
- To your left, a little bit.
- 1750
- 01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:31,761
- That's a step, right?
- 1751
- 01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:32,841
- Yeah, put your hand out.
- 1752
- 01:46:33,280 --> 01:46:34,770
- There's a podium to your right.
- 1753
- 01:46:34,920 --> 01:46:36,649
- Yeah, perfect.
- 1754
- 01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:46,601
- Beautiful.
- 1755
- 01:46:48,440 --> 01:46:49,646
- Hi.
- 1756
- 01:46:49,920 --> 01:46:50,921
- You're late.
- 1757
- 01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:53,207
- How you doing? You look
- ravishing, Hazel Grace.
- 1758
- 01:46:53,280 --> 01:46:55,408
- I know, right?
- 1759
- 01:47:00,360 --> 01:47:01,646
- What's going on, guys?
- 1760
- 01:47:02,120 --> 01:47:03,281
- Tell her, Gus.
- 1761
- 01:47:04,040 --> 01:47:06,168
- I wanted to attend
- my own funeral.
- 1762
- 01:47:07,080 --> 01:47:10,801
- I mean, I'm hopeful that I'll be
- able to attend as a ghost, but...
- 1763
- 01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:14,527
- However, just in case
- it doesn't work out...
- 1764
- 01:47:14,680 --> 01:47:17,729
- I decided to plan
- this pre-funeral.
- 1765
- 01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:20,161
- Ready?
- 1766
- 01:47:23,920 --> 01:47:26,491
- Augustus Waters was a cocky son of a bitch.
- 1767
- 01:47:27,040 --> 01:47:28,565
- But we forgave him.
- 1768
- 01:47:29,120 --> 01:47:31,168
- Not because of his
- superhuman good looks...
- 1769
- 01:47:31,240 --> 01:47:33,163
- or because he only got 19 years
- 1770
- 01:47:33,240 --> 01:47:35,129
- when he should've
- gotten way more.
- 1771
- 01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:36,725
- 18 years, buddy.
- 1772
- 01:47:36,880 --> 01:47:38,291
- Dude, come on. Really?
- 1773
- 01:47:38,360 --> 01:47:41,000
- I'm assuming you have a little more
- time, you interrupting bastard.
- 1774
- 01:47:41,024 --> 01:47:43,704
- Interrupt me in the middle of my eulogy.
- You're supposed to be dead.
- 1775
- 01:47:44,880 --> 01:47:48,680
- But when the scientists
- from the future...
- 1776
- 01:47:48,840 --> 01:47:52,003
- come to my house
- with robot eyes...
- 1777
- 01:47:52,160 --> 01:47:54,527
- and they tell me
- to try them on...
- 1778
- 01:47:57,320 --> 01:48:00,529
- I'm gonna tell those scientists
- to piss off, because...
- 1779
- 01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:04,803
- because Gus, I don't even want
- to see a world without you.
- 1780
- 01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:07,367
- I don't.
- 1781
- 01:48:07,440 --> 01:48:10,284
- I don't want to see a world
- without Augustus Waters.
- 1782
- 01:48:13,640 --> 01:48:16,240
- Then, having made my point, I'll
- probably put the robot eyes on...
- 1783
- 01:48:16,264 --> 01:48:18,088
- because, you know,
- they're robot eyes.
- 1784
- 01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:19,685
- Sounds awesome.
- 1785
- 01:48:22,320 --> 01:48:24,368
- And I don't know...
- Um...
- 1786
- 01:48:24,560 --> 01:48:27,040
- This is just so hard.
- 1787
- 01:48:27,120 --> 01:48:28,121
- Um...
- 1788
- 01:48:28,560 --> 01:48:30,324
- Godspeed.
- 1789
- 01:48:31,120 --> 01:48:32,121
- Yeah.
- 1790
- 01:48:32,200 --> 01:48:34,487
- Hazel, can I get a hand here?
- 1791
- 01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:45,529
- To the right, a little bit.
- 1792
- 01:48:48,040 --> 01:48:51,328
- Yeah, and turn around.
- Sit down. There you go.
- 1793
- 01:48:55,840 --> 01:48:57,922
- It's down to you, Hazel Grace.
- 1794
- 01:49:23,520 --> 01:49:24,567
- Hello.
- 1795
- 01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:28,406
- My name is
- Hazel Grace Lancaster...
- 1796
- 01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:34,324
- and Augustus Waters was the
- star-crossed love of my life.
- 1797
- 01:49:34,480 --> 01:49:36,289
- Ours was an epic love story...
- 1798
- 01:49:36,440 --> 01:49:40,206
- and I probably won't be able to
- get more than a sentence out...
- 1799
- 01:49:40,360 --> 01:49:43,443
- without disappearing
- into a puddle of tears.
- 1800
- 01:49:45,480 --> 01:49:47,289
- Like all real love stories...
- 1801
- 01:49:47,440 --> 01:49:49,204
- ours will die with us.
- 1802
- 01:49:49,360 --> 01:49:50,691
- As it should.
- 1803
- 01:49:54,040 --> 01:49:57,647
- You know, I'd kind of hoped that
- he would be the one eulogizing me.
- 1804
- 01:49:58,800 --> 01:50:00,848
- Because there's really
- no one else...
- 1805
- 01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:06,409
- Yeah, no. Um...
- 1806
- 01:50:08,600 --> 01:50:11,251
- I'm not gonna talk about our
- love story, because I can't.
- 1807
- 01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:15,769
- So, instead,
- I'm gonna talk about math.
- 1808
- 01:50:18,040 --> 01:50:22,011
- I am not a mathematician,
- but I do know this.
- 1809
- 01:50:22,560 --> 01:50:25,723
- There are infinite numbers
- between zero and one.
- 1810
- 01:50:25,880 --> 01:50:30,807
- There's point-one, point-one-two,
- and point-one-one-two, and...
- 1811
- 01:50:31,320 --> 01:50:33,687
- and an infinite
- collection of others.
- 1812
- 01:50:34,840 --> 01:50:37,161
- Of course,
- there is a bigger infinite
- 1813
- 01:50:37,240 --> 01:50:39,607
- set of numbers
- between zero and two...
- 1814
- 01:50:39,960 --> 01:50:43,851
- or between zero and a million.
- 1815
- 01:50:45,280 --> 01:50:49,365
- Some infinities are simply
- bigger than other infinities.
- 1816
- 01:50:51,280 --> 01:50:54,045
- A writer that we used
- to like taught us that.
- 1817
- 01:50:55,840 --> 01:50:58,286
- You know, I want more numbers...
- 1818
- 01:50:58,440 --> 01:51:00,169
- than I'm likely to get.
- 1819
- 01:51:03,040 --> 01:51:04,451
- And, God...
- 1820
- 01:51:06,120 --> 01:51:08,088
- do I want more days
- for Augustus Waters
- 1821
- 01:51:08,160 --> 01:51:09,446
- than what he got.
- 1822
- 01:51:13,840 --> 01:51:15,171
- But, Gus...
- 1823
- 01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:18,245
- my love...
- 1824
- 01:51:19,400 --> 01:51:21,880
- I cannot tell you
- how thankful I am...
- 1825
- 01:51:23,360 --> 01:51:25,328
- for our little infinity.
- 1826
- 01:51:36,960 --> 01:51:38,371
- Hold on.
- 1827
- 01:51:46,040 --> 01:51:48,361
- You gave me a forever...
- 1828
- 01:51:50,400 --> 01:51:52,880
- within the numbered days.
- 1829
- 01:51:53,040 --> 01:51:54,963
- And for that, lam...
- 1830
- 01:51:56,120 --> 01:51:58,248
- lam eternally grateful.
- 1831
- 01:52:05,040 --> 01:52:07,327
- I love you so much.
- 1832
- 01:52:09,800 --> 01:52:11,768
- I love you, too.
- 1833
- 01:52:32,080 --> 01:52:35,448
- <i>Augustus Waters died
- eight days later in the ICU.</i>
- 1834
- 01:52:36,600 --> 01:52:39,888
- <i>When the cancer,
- which was made of him...</i>
- 1835
- 01:52:40,560 --> 01:52:44,929
- <i>stopped his heart, which
- was also made of him.</i>
- 1836
- 01:53:44,520 --> 01:53:46,409
- <i>It was unbearable.</i>
- 1837
- 01:53:46,760 --> 01:53:48,364
- <i>The whole thing.</i>
- 1838
- 01:53:49,480 --> 01:53:52,086
- <i>Every second,
- worse than the last.</i>
- 1839
- 01:53:58,120 --> 01:54:00,040
- <i>One of the first things
- they ask you in the</i> ER...
- 1840
- 01:54:00,080 --> 01:54:02,924
- <i>is to rate your pain
- on a scale from one to ten.</i>
- 1841
- 01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:06,880
- <i>I've been asked this question
- hundreds of times...</i>
- 1842
- 01:54:06,960 --> 01:54:09,042
- <i>and I remember once...</i>
- 1843
- 01:54:09,200 --> 01:54:11,123
- <i>when I couldn't catch my breath</i>
- 1844
- 01:54:11,200 --> 01:54:13,043
- <i>and it felt like
- my chest was on fire...</i>
- 1845
- 01:54:14,240 --> 01:54:16,163
- <i>the nurse asked me
- to rate the pain.</i>
- 1846
- 01:54:16,320 --> 01:54:19,290
- <i>Though I couldn't speak,
- I held up nine fingers.</i>
- 1847
- 01:54:20,440 --> 01:54:22,408
- <i>Later, when I started
- feeling better...</i>
- 1848
- 01:54:22,560 --> 01:54:25,325
- <i>the nurse came in
- and she called me a fighter.</i>
- 1849
- 01:54:26,280 --> 01:54:28,408
- <i>"You know how I know?"
- she said.</i>
- 1850
- 01:54:29,200 --> 01:54:31,362
- <i>"You called a ten a nine."</i>
- 1851
- 01:54:32,480 --> 01:54:34,050
- <i>But that wasn't the truth.</i>
- 1852
- 01:54:34,320 --> 01:54:37,164
- <i>I didn't call it a nine
- because I was brave.</i>
- 1853
- 01:54:38,720 --> 01:54:43,760
- <i>The reason I called it a nine was
- because I was saving my ten.</i>
- 1854
- 01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:46,525
- <i>And this was it.</i>
- 1855
- 01:54:49,040 --> 01:54:51,407
- <i>This was the great
- and terrible ten.</i>
- 1856
- 01:54:51,880 --> 01:54:54,565
- <i>"I will fear no
- evil, for You are with me...</i>
- 1857
- 01:54:55,280 --> 01:54:58,807
- "Your rod and your staff,
- they comfort me.
- 1858

- in the house of the Lord...
- 1862
- 01:55:13,840 --> 01:55:15,171
- "forever."
- 1863
- 01:55:18,200 --> 01:55:21,488
- Augustus Waters
- fought hard for many years.
- 1864
- 01:55:22,880 --> 01:55:26,601
- His battle was a courageous
- one, and his strength...
- 1865
- 01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:28,410
- What a load of shit, huh, kid?
- 1866
- 01:55:28,480 --> 01:55:30,840
- ...was a source of inspiration
- for each and every one of us.
- 1867
- 01:55:33,360 --> 01:55:34,771
- Let us pray.
- 1868
- 01:55:36,280 --> 01:55:38,601
- We thank You, Lord, for the
- life of Augustus Waters...
- 1869
- 01:55:38,960 --> 01:55:40,325
- We need to
- fake-pray now.
- 1870
- 01:55:40,480 --> 01:55:43,484
- ...for his
- strength and his courage.
- 1871
- 01:55:43,680 --> 01:55:47,287
- Lord, we ask that You be with
- us today, that You be close...
- 1872
- 01:55:47,440 --> 01:55:50,011
- that You comfort
- his friends and family.
- 1873
- 01:55:50,160 --> 01:55:52,003
- Thank You for
- Your presence, Lord.
- 1874
- 01:55:52,680 --> 01:55:54,569
- All this we pray in Jesus' name.
- 1875
- 01:55:55,120 --> 01:55:56,121
- Amen.
- 1876
- 01:55:56,280 --> 01:55:57,486
- Amen.
- 1877
- 01:55:57,880 --> 01:56:02,681
- Now, we are going to hear
- from Gus' special friend...
- 1878
- 01:56:02,840 --> 01:56:05,002
- Hazel Lancaster.
- 1879
- 01:56:15,920 --> 01:56:19,845
- Not that it really matters,
- but I was his girlfriend.
- 1880
- 01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:03,761
- There's a beautiful quote
- in Gus' home that reads...
- 1881
- 01:57:03,920 --> 01:57:06,201
- "if you want the rainbow, you
- have to deal with the rain."
- 1882
- 01:57:09,640 --> 01:57:12,086
- Even in his last few days...
- 1883
- 01:57:12,680 --> 01:57:13,727
- Um...
- 1884
- 01:57:13,800 --> 01:57:15,006
- <i>I didn't believe a word.</i>
- 1885
- 01:57:15,160 --> 01:57:17,481
- He was always able
- to crack a smile.
- 1886
- 01:57:18,120 --> 01:57:19,690
- <i>But that's okay.</i>
- 1887
- 01:57:22,400 --> 01:57:25,290
- <i>I knew this was
- the right thing to do.</i>
- 1888
- 01:57:26,240 --> 01:57:30,325
- <i>Funerals, I'd decided,
- are not for the dead.</i>
- 1889
- 01:57:32,280 --> 01:57:33,280
- <i>They're for the living.</i>
- 1890
- 01:57:33,320 --> 01:57:35,129
- Hey, want some company?
- 1891
- 01:57:35,280 --> 01:57:36,281
- No, I'm okay.
- 1892
- 01:57:36,480 --> 01:57:39,962
- I'm just gonna drive
- for a bit by myself.
- 1893
- 01:57:40,240 --> 01:57:41,321
- Love you.
- 1894
- 01:57:43,240 --> 01:57:44,571
- Love you.
- 1895
- 01:57:45,120 --> 01:57:46,406
- You spoke beautifully.
- 1896
- 01:57:47,640 --> 01:57:49,051
- I'll see you soon.
- Drive safe.
- 1897
- 01:57:49,200 --> 01:57:50,281
- Okay-
- 1898
- 01:58:15,120 --> 01:58:16,281
- May I?
- 1899
- 01:58:18,600 --> 01:58:21,809
- <i>Omnis cellula e cellula.</i>
- 1900
- 01:58:23,960 --> 01:58:27,362
- Your boy Waters and I corresponded
- quite a bit in his last days.
- 1901
- 01:58:27,520 --> 01:58:29,488
- Oh. So, you read
- your fan mail now?
- 1902
- 01:58:29,680 --> 01:58:31,569
- I wouldn't exactly
- call him a fan.
- 1903
- 01:58:31,720 --> 01:58:33,165
- He detested me.
- 1904
- 01:58:33,680 --> 01:58:37,287
- But he was quite insistent
- I attend his funeral...
- 1905
- 01:58:37,440 --> 01:58:39,681
- and tell you what became
- of Anna and her mother...
- 1906
- 01:58:39,880 --> 01:58:41,609
- so here I am.
- 1907
- 01:58:41,920 --> 01:58:44,526
- And that's your answer,
- "Omnis cellula e cellula."
- 1908
- 01:58:44,720 --> 01:58:45,846
- "Life comes from life."
- 1909
- 01:58:47,360 --> 01:58:48,440
- I'm really not in the mood.
- 1910
- 01:58:48,520 --> 01:58:49,720
- You don't want an explanation?
- 1911
- 01:58:49,800 --> 01:58:51,211
- No, I don't.
- 1912
- 01:58:51,360 --> 01:58:53,488
- Thank you, though.
- Have a great life.
- 1913
- 01:58:54,040 --> 01:58:55,644
- You remind me of her.
- 1914
- 01:58:57,200 --> 01:59:00,044
- I remind a lot of people
- of a lot of people.
- 1915
- 01:59:01,200 --> 01:59:02,804
- My daughter was eight.
- 1916
- 01:59:04,680 --> 01:59:09,447
- And she suffered
- beautifully for so long.
- 1917
- 01:59:11,680 --> 01:59:13,808
- She had leukemia like Anna?
- 1918
- 01:59:14,840 --> 01:59:16,490
- Just like Anna.
- 1919
- 01:59:20,080 --> 01:59:22,890
- I'm very sorry for your loss.
- 1920
- 01:59:23,040 --> 01:59:26,249
- And I'm sorry for yours. And
- sorry for ruining your trip.
- 1921
- 01:59:27,000 --> 01:59:28,729
- You didn't ruin our trip.
- 1922
- 01:59:28,880 --> 01:59:30,405
- We had an amazing trip.
- 1923
- 01:59:33,280 --> 01:59:37,080
- Are you familiar
- with the Trolley Problem?
- 1924
- 01:59:37,240 --> 01:59:41,040
- There's a thought experiment
- in the field of ethics...
- 1925
- 01:59:41,200 --> 01:59:42,964
- known as the Trolley Problem.
- 1926
- 01:59:43,120 --> 01:59:45,043
- Philippa Foot was
- an English philosopher...
- 1927
- 01:59:45,240 --> 01:59:46,526
- Oh, my God.
- 1928
- 01:59:46,880 --> 01:59:49,008
- Hazel, I'm trying to
- explain something to you.
- 1929
- 01:59:49,200 --> 01:59:50,720
- I'm trying to give you
- what you wanted.
- 1930
- 01:59:50,744 --> 01:59:51,367
- No, you're not!
- 1931
- 01:59:51,520 --> 01:59:53,170
- You are a drunk,
- and you're a failure...
- 1932
- 01:59:53,320 --> 01:59:55,200
- and I need you to get out
- of my car right now...
- 1933
- 01:59:55,224 --> 01:59:58,751
- so that I can go home, and
- be by myself and grieve!
- 1934
- 01:59:59,760 --> 02:00:01,364
- You'll want to read this.
- 1935
- 02:00:03,880 --> 02:00:05,530
- I don't want to read anything.
- 1936
- 02:00:05,600 --> 02:00:07,204
- Can you just get out of my car?
- 1937
- 02:00:12,120 --> 02:00:13,246
- Please get out of my car!
- 1938
- 02:00:13,320 --> 02:00:14,401
- Fine.
- 1939
- 02:01:21,640 --> 02:01:23,449
- Can I come in?
- 1940
- 02:01:35,680 --> 02:01:37,409
- I'm so, so sorry.
- 1941
- 02:01:39,760 --> 02:01:41,091
- Yeah.
- 1942
- 02:01:47,440 --> 02:01:51,240
- It was a privilege,
- though, wasn't it?
- 1943
- 02:01:51,400 --> 02:01:52,765
- To love him?
- 1944
- 02:02:05,000 --> 02:02:07,890
- Gives you an idea
- how we feel about you.
- 1945
- 02:02:15,880 --> 02:02:17,245
- Hazel?
- 1946
- 02:02:18,000 --> 02:02:20,207
- There's a friend
- here to see you.
- 1947
- 02:02:21,640 --> 02:02:24,166
- Do you know if
- it hurt or whatever?
- 1948
- 02:02:25,640 --> 02:02:28,883
- Apparently he was struggling
- for breath for a long time...
- 1949
- 02:02:29,040 --> 02:02:31,725
- and then eventually
- he just went unconscious.
- 1950
- 02:02:32,960 --> 02:02:34,485
- It wasn't great or anything.
- 1951
- 02:02:35,880 --> 02:02:37,370
- Dying sucks.
- 1952
- 02:02:39,800 --> 02:02:41,484
- Gus really loved you, you know?
- 1953
- 02:02:42,160 --> 02:02:43,400
- I know.
- 1954
- 02:02:45,560 --> 02:02:47,483
- He wouldn't shut up about it.
- 1955
- 02:02:48,000 --> 02:02:49,047
- Yeah.
- 1956
- 02:02:49,200 --> 02:02:52,090
- It was annoying. He
- talked about you so much.
- 1957
- 02:02:52,240 --> 02:02:53,571
- I didn't find it that annoying.
- 1958
- 02:02:53,760 --> 02:02:56,081
- I know.
- I know you didn't.
- 1959
- 02:03:05,160 --> 02:03:07,527
- Did you get that letter
- from your author friend?
- 1960
- 02:03:08,040 --> 02:03:09,530
- Ew. He's not my friend.
- 1961
- 02:03:10,160 --> 02:03:11,240
- How do you know about that?
- 1962
- 02:03:11,360 --> 02:03:13,120
- Well, I was talking
- to him at the cemetery...
- 1963
- 02:03:13,144 --> 02:03:17,050
- and he said he came all this way
- to give that letter to you.
- 1964
- 02:03:17,280 --> 02:03:19,362
- Yeah, well, I'm over it.
- 1965
- 02:03:19,520 --> 02:03:22,444
- I have no interest in reading another
- word of that asshole's again.
- 1966
- 02:03:22,600 --> 02:03:24,443
- No, he didn't write it.
- Gus wrote it.
- 1967
- 02:03:24,760 --> 02:03:26,046
- What?
- 1968
- 02:03:26,200 --> 02:03:27,770
- Apparently Gus wrote
- something down
- 1969
- 02:03:27,840 --> 02:03:29,365
- and then sent it to Van Houten.
- 1970
- 02:03:32,400 --> 02:03:33,890
- Oh, my God.
- 1971
- 02:03:42,880 --> 02:03:47,204
- <i>Mr. Van Houten, I'm a good
- person, but a shitty writer.</i>
- 1972
- 02:03:48,200 --> 02:03:50,885
- <i>You're a shitty person,
- but a good writer.</i>
- 1973
- 02:03:51,040 --> 02:03:53,088
- <i>I think we'd make a good team.</i>
- 1974
- 02:03:53,240 --> 02:03:54,890
- <i>I don't want to ask you
- for any favors...</i>
- 1975
- 02:03:55,040 --> 02:03:58,328
- <i>but if you have the time, and from
- what I saw, you have plenty...</i>
- 1976
- 02:03:58,480 --> 02:04:00,050
- <i>please fix this for me.</i>
- 1977
- 02:04:00,240 --> 02:04:02,402
- <i>It's a eulogy for Hazel.</i>
- 1978
- 02:04:06,120 --> 02:04:07,760
- <i>She asked me to write one,
- and I'm trying.</i>
- 1979
- 02:04:07,880 --> 02:04:11,248
- <i>I just...
- I could use a little flair.</i>
- 1980
- 02:04:11,760 --> 02:04:14,730
- <i>See, the thing is, we all
- want to be remembered.</i>
- 1981
- 02:04:17,320 --> 02:04:18,845
- <i>But Hazel's different.</i>
- 1982
- 02:04:19,760 --> 02:04:21,444
- <i>Hazel knows the truth.</i>
- 1983
- 02:04:21,640 --> 02:04:25,247
- <i>She didn't want a million admirers.
- She just wanted one.</i>
- 1984
- 02:04:25,400 --> 02:04:26,606
- <i>And she got it.</i>
- 1985
- 02:04:27,240 --> 02:04:30,687
- <i>Maybe she wasn't loved widely,
- but she was loved deeply.</i>
- 1986
- 02:04:31,240 --> 02:04:33,481
- <i>And isn't that more
- than most of us get?</i>
- 1987
- 02:04:35,360 --> 02:04:38,967
- <i>When Hazel was sick,
- I knew I was dying...</i>
- 1988
- 02:04:39,120 --> 02:04:41,282
- <i>but I didn't want to say so.</i>
- 1989
- 02:04:46,120 --> 02:04:48,487
- <i>She was in the ICU, and I
- snuck in for 10 minutes...</i>
- 1990
- 02:04:48,640 --> 02:04:51,450
- <i>and I sat with her,
- before I got caught.</i>
- 1991
- 02:04:53,040 --> 02:04:55,805
- <i>Her eyes were closed.
- Her skin, pale.</i>
- 1992
- 02:04:55,960 --> 02:04:58,281
- <i>But her hands
- were still her hands.</i>
- 1993
- 02:04:58,720 --> 02:05:02,122
- <i>Still warm, and her nails were painted
- this dark blue-black color...</i>
- 1994
- 02:05:02,280 --> 02:05:05,170
- <i>and I just held them.</i>
- 1995
- 02:05:05,320 --> 02:05:08,130
- <i>And I willed myself to imagine
- a world without us...</i>
- 1996
- 02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:11,321
- <i>and what a worthless world
- that would be.</i>
- 1997
- 02:05:14,480 --> 02:05:16,642
- <i>She's so beautiful.</i>
- 1998
- 02:05:17,200 --> 02:05:18,884
- <i>You don't get tired
- of looking at her.</i>
- 1999
- 02:05:19,040 --> 02:05:20,760
- <i>You never worry if she's
- smarter than you...</i>
- 2000
- 02:05:20,784 --> 02:05:22,548
- <i>because you know she is.</i>
- 2001
- 02:05:24,160 --> 02:05:26,640
- <i>She's funny without
- ever being mean.</i>
- 2002
- 02:05:28,640 --> 02:05:30,051
- <i>I love her.</i>
- 2003
- 02:05:30,800 --> 02:05:31,801
- <i>God, I love her.</i>
- 2004
- 02:05:32,000 --> 02:05:34,526
- <i>I'm so lucky to love her,
- Van Houten.</i>
- 2005
- 02:05:42,760 --> 02:05:44,960
- <i>You don't get to choose if you
- get hurt in this world...</i>
- 2006
- 02:05:45,000 --> 02:05:48,163
- <i>but you do have a say
- in who hurts you.</i>
- 2007
- 02:05:48,840 --> 02:05:50,842
- <i>And I like my choices.</i>
- 2008
- 02:05:51,920 --> 02:05:54,048
- <i>I hope she likes hers.</i>
- 2009
- 02:05:55,160 --> 02:05:56,924
- <i>Okay, Hazel Grace?</i>
- 2010
- 02:05:59,400 --> 02:06:00,731
- Okay-
