00:18The End
00:20Quick, think of number one to ten.
00:22Yes, you. All of you in the audience right now.
00:24Or maybe it's just one of you. Or four of you. Or a hundred of you, depending on how successful this movie is.
00:28Whatever. Just think of number one to ten.
00:32Got it?
00:34Is it seven?
00:36Chances are I'm wrong, but for about one out of every three of you, I just blew your goddamn mind.
00:40But one out of three?
00:42Not one out of ten?
00:46How is that possible?
00:58The End
01:00Here's my theory. First of all, no one will pick one or ten, right?
01:04Like, that's just stupid, picking from the ends.
01:06And you didn't even specify that one and ten are included, right?
01:08So people wouldn't want to mess up the rules or anything.
01:10Like, it would be embarrassing to fuck up choosing the number one through ten.
01:12Why do you think people choose the number seven?
01:14Well, I'm an Aquarius, so three gives off five vibes for me.
01:18Yeah, five, bro. Like, that's just mid-eight, yeah?
01:20Yeah, we just...
01:21No cap.
01:22Well, you see, Pythagoras actually calculated even integers are more predictable.
01:27Two and four feel a bit, uh, harmless, if you will.
01:30You know, back in my day.
01:32Three, nine, five.
01:34Like, that's the biggest size.
01:35Three, five, eight, oh.
01:37Three, two, three, four, four, nine.
01:43And so there it was.
01:45Science has found that 33% of people will choose seven.
01:49And yet no one could quite explain why.
01:52Out of a seemingly random set of arbitrarily assigned values,
01:55out of complete and utter meaninglessness and nothingness, came...
02:02Everything!
02:03I mean, think about it. We live in a world with so much uncertainty,
02:05with, like, climate change, civil unrest, and...
02:07The only thing on CERB right now is what college you're going to.
02:10Miles, it's really not that complicated.
02:11Go to a good college, get a job, and die.
02:13And what's with all that one through ten shit you say every day?
02:15Yeah, what's with that anyway?
02:17Yeah, what's with that anyway?
02:21How about your extracurriculars?
02:23Can you do certain battles?
02:25Focus.
02:28Miles!
02:29Miles.
02:30Focus.
02:31I don't know how much time is.
02:33I always tell you this ticket, but you won't have much time.
02:36I always tell you this ticket, but you won't have much time.
02:56Where do you want to go next?
02:58I don't know.
03:02I don't know anything.
03:04Try to remember.
03:08Memories with you.
03:13With me.
03:17With me.
03:18We're a fucking gladuator!
03:21Woo!
03:22Woo!
03:23Woo!
03:24Get the fuck out!
03:26Get the fuck out!
03:27Oh my God!
03:28Oh my God!
03:29Oh my God!
03:30Oh my God!
03:31God!
03:32Bye, right, right, like YouTube!
03:33Ah!
03:34Oh my God!
03:35Oh my God!
03:43Person!
03:49Let's go.
04:19No, no, I just, if we, if we could, yeah, absolutely.
04:28What?
04:29What are you, yeah, okay.
04:35Well, I should probably, I should probably get going.
04:37I just have some work that I got to do.
04:39Yeah, same.
04:39Cool, cool.
04:40But it was really nice conversing with you, Harper.
04:44Precisely.
04:44Have a great night, Miles.
04:46You too.
04:48All right.
04:49Wait, do you want to kiss?
04:53I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, but it's like, yeah, like, obviously.
04:56Door.
04:56Door.
04:56Door.
04:57Yeah.
04:58Yeah, but obviously.
05:12So, should we drive around sometime?
05:13Yeah, let's do that.
05:14Yeah, let's.
05:29Seven.
05:32It was also the first time I encountered the pinnacle of existence.
05:35Death.
05:35Death.
05:36Death.
05:38Death.
05:42Why do you think that raccoon killed himself?
05:55He didn't.
05:57Animals don't do that.
05:59But what if they have feelings, just like us?
06:04Maybe his wife died and he went through months of existential relief and rehab.
06:08Where is all this coming from?
06:16Mom, did Uncle Fred kill himself?
06:23You'll never have control over what you learn.
06:25You'll never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.
06:41Pick a number.
06:42One through ten.
06:43And now, you all are probably expecting a happy moral to the story.
06:53Or some kind of, but wait, there's more ending.
06:58But there is none.
07:01There's no meaning to any of this.
07:03There's no meaning to any of your shitty follow-your-dreams valedictorian speeches or virtue signaling.
07:10We live in a society, Pinterest quotes.
07:12And definitely there's no...
07:14And definitely there's no meaning to my pretentious, nihilistic, and ending attempt at self-awareness
07:20for the sake of self-awareness.
07:22Will you remember me?
07:43Of course.
07:47I don't think I will.
07:52Yeah, honestly, I don't think I will either.
07:57No, like, I'll remember you, but in, like, 50 years...
08:01Like, we probably won't give a fuck about each other, let's be honest.
08:04Right, exactly.
08:04Yeah.
08:10I mean, maybe, though.
08:13Yeah.
08:15I'd like to think so.
08:17I'll be like, remember that Miles kid?
08:21I really liked him.
08:23He was really cute.
08:25He had nice eyes.
08:29I guess.
08:31It's a weird feeling.
08:33It's a kind of fleeting feeling we'll only really experience once.
08:37Like, we're not gonna realize how good we had it until we're old and inevitably lose contact with each other.
08:43And then...
08:44And then remembering all of this will be painful.
08:53Do you think, then, that it would be better to remember or forget?
08:59Yeah, me too.
09:11We begin tonight with New Mexico, where thousands of firefighters are battling a colossal wildfire.
09:22The worst day in more than four years were getting into the world.
09:24There's so many random things happening in the world at once that don't feel like they make sense.
09:28What you're about to see is graphic.
09:30Okay, now I'm gonna ask you, what do you think the meaning of life is?
09:33Just to have fun and don't care what anyone else thinks of you at all.
09:37Just live in with the journey, the experience, and find some happiness there.
09:43Honestly, just do whatever the hell you want.
09:45Because, I mean, in the end, none of this is gonna matter.
09:48And these people that you think care right now, they really don't.
09:52I guess to focus on yourself and do what you want to do and not waste time.
09:56To help people to do more good than bad.
09:59So, how do you feel about the future right now?
10:02The world's kind of uncertain at the moment.
10:05Personally, kind of scared.
10:06Not great.
10:08I'm just kind of nervous about it.
10:09It takes a lot of work to be optimistic.
10:12I don't know where I'm gonna go to college.
10:14I don't know what I want to do with my life.
10:16And so, I don't know where I'm gonna go.
10:17It's just such an unexpected thing.
10:19You can never know what's gonna happen next.
10:22I don't think anyone really knows what's going on.
10:26As a family man, I, uh, sort of meaning is the happiness for all my family members.
10:31The future of the past, the present, it's all a gift.
10:34All right.
10:35It's a gift!
10:37The future's really scary.
10:38I don't really feel confident.
10:39Would I be here?
10:43I'd say sad.
10:44Only because there's a lot of things that I benefit from in this world that a lot of people don't benefit from.
10:48It's a surprise.
10:49It's going to be a blaster.
10:51It doesn't work out.
10:52We're all the teachers, right?
10:52I'm pretty.
10:53Like, the world's biggest villain is the monster.
10:55Let's do it.
10:55Let's do it.
10:56Let's do it.
10:57Let's do it.
10:57Let's do it.
10:58Let's do it.
10:59Let's do it.
10:59Let's do it.
11:00Let's do it.
11:01Let's do it.
11:01But we all try to find our seven to hold on to.
11:03You love everyone that you can.
11:07Just go find someone and abuse them with your love.
11:10You know, the people that you spend it with just live life and not just exist.
11:13It's just really big and you never know what's gonna happen.
11:17Because existing is just waking up, going to work.
11:19We live and we die.
11:20That's all that happens.
11:24You're gonna do great things, man.
11:26Seriously.
11:27I'm not believing you.
11:28Embrace it.
11:30Embrace every moment of it.
11:31You live in terror of not being misunderstood.
11:34You're always here.
11:36Always.
11:39And all of a sudden, in a moment of complete absurd randomness.
11:44It's gonna happen.
12:00There's clarity.
12:14I'm Sondra.
12:26Production designer.
12:26Today, I have water guns.
12:28Hey John, look at the camera.
12:30No.
12:30I'm Sondra.
12:31Shake your head, have some fun.
12:34Forget our mothers and past lovers.
12:36Forget everyone.
12:38Oh, I'm so lucky.
12:41You were my best friend.
12:45Oh, there's no one.
12:47There's no one that knows me like you.
