00:27:21Ms. Spencer?
00:27:23Alex, please come!
00:27:26Isabel, she's about to die!
00:27:30Alex! Alex, where are you?
00:27:36No! No, no, this can't be real!
00:27:46Isabel, you can't die!
00:27:59Isabel!
00:28:00Young man, you can't be in here!
00:28:02You need to leave!
00:28:03No, no, I'm not leaving!
00:28:04That's why Isabel, that's why Izzy!
00:28:06I need to see her!
00:28:19This can't be real!
00:28:21This can't be real!
00:28:40Is his chauffeur a young lady?
00:28:43No, it's not her.
00:28:52Please, Spencer, please just pick up.
00:28:58Excuse me, do you know what room Isabel Spencer's in?
00:29:04She's 18, hair down to here, she's really thin, big, beautiful eyes, the kind you never forget.
00:29:11Alex?
00:29:14Looking for me?
00:29:19Wait, what?
00:29:21Isabel.
00:29:24What's going on?
00:29:25Your mom called and said you were about to die.
00:29:28Are you okay?
00:29:31My mom, she's so overdramatic, I just had a minor surgery.
00:29:34Completely fine.
00:29:38Do you think this is funny or something?
00:29:40What?
00:29:41Jesus Christ, Isabel, what, you had your mom fabricate some fake sob story about your death?
00:29:47What's next, huh?
00:29:48You're going to invite me to your fake fucking funeral?
00:29:52This is not what happened.
00:29:53No, no, don't call me again.
00:29:54Not even on your deathbed.
00:29:56Because I don't care anymore.
00:29:58Not one fucking bit.
00:30:17Isabel, what are you doing out here?
00:30:19You just got out of surgery.
00:30:23What's that, Alex?
00:30:26Baby, I'm sorry.
00:30:27I called him.
00:30:28I just thought it was important for you guys to have closure.
00:30:32It's okay, Mom.
00:30:33It doesn't matter.
00:30:36Can we go home?
00:30:37I really don't want to die.
00:30:43I really don't want to die.
00:30:50Hey, Alex.
00:30:52Five days till graduation.
00:30:56You said some pretty hurtful things to me yesterday, but I know you didn't mean them.
00:31:04Sometimes I just get sad, thinking about how we can't go back to the way that we were.
00:31:10But I want you to be happy.
00:31:14And so I hope that not having me around can kind of take the weight off a little bit.
00:31:23Do you remember this?
00:31:26You left it here.
00:31:29It means a lot to me.
00:31:50Wait.
00:31:52Isabel, you...
00:31:53You sure you want this?
00:31:56100%.
00:31:57I don't want to die a virgin.
00:32:00Yeah, but...
00:32:02Why me?
00:32:04Because you're my best friend.
00:32:07The only one who'd agree to do this.
00:32:10The only person who wouldn't think I'm crazy for making such a request.
00:32:14Yeah.
00:32:15Great.
00:32:16Okay.
00:32:17Then, um...
00:32:19How do you want to get started?
00:32:22You tell me.
00:32:23I'm the virgin here.
00:32:25Well, uh...
00:32:26Actually, you're not the only...
00:32:29Virgin here.
00:32:30Now, what about the cheerleader last summer?
00:32:33That was just a rumor, Izzy.
00:32:35I'm not the hookup kind of guy.
00:32:39Actually, I've been waiting.
00:32:43Waiting for what?
00:32:47I've been waiting for you, Izzy.
00:32:50I wanted you to be my first.
00:32:54Nothing.
00:32:55I'm ready if you are.
00:33:13I'm ready, too.
00:33:19I'll be gentle.
00:33:21I promise.
00:33:32That was my first kiss.
00:33:34Mine, too.
00:33:52Oh, my God.
00:33:54Am I really losing my virginity to my best friend?
00:34:01What the hell are you kids doing?
00:34:05Homework!
00:34:08This is the last thing you gave me.
00:34:14So, now it is time to give it back.
00:34:32Alex?
00:34:33Anyone home?
00:34:52So he got into Princeton, too.
00:34:58Since we were five, Alex and I have spent countless hours together in this room.
00:35:04Playing games, building blanket forts, all kinds of stupid stuff.
00:35:11But I never come in here anymore. Not since Alex's dad died.
00:35:25My eyes are up here.
00:35:28Yeah, sorry. Just, uh, people at school said you have three nipples.
00:35:35And I was just curious.
00:35:37You're not seriously listening to those rumors. You could have just asked me.
00:35:42Yeah. Sorry. You're right. Definitely shouldn't listen to those idiots.
00:35:50You know what? Just to prove the gossip wrong. I'll show you.
00:35:56What?
00:35:57What?
00:36:02So?
00:36:04How many do I have?
00:36:07Two. Two.
00:36:09Perfect. One.
00:36:19This will probably be the last time I'm ever in this room.
00:36:26Goodbye, Alex.
00:36:34Alex.
00:36:34Oh my God, Alex. You're finally showing me your room.
00:36:38Will I be the first girl who's doing it?
00:36:48Wow. I never thought I'd set foot inside the room of the Alex Brooks.
00:36:56Zoe, it's late. I think you should leave.
00:36:59Don't be such a killjoy, Alex. I have a surprise for you.
00:37:03You know?
00:37:13Uh...
00:37:13Yes, so I... I should definitely leave.
00:37:17You sure you want me to leave?
00:37:18You said your parents are out.
00:37:20Which means we have the whole place to ourselves.
00:37:27I can do anything that you want, Alex.
00:37:30I'm yours.
00:37:35See?
00:37:37I'm already wet for you.
00:37:46Yes.
00:37:47Oh, that's it.
00:37:50Oh, that's it, baby.
00:37:53Alex, do you want me?
00:37:54Yes, Izita wants you.
00:37:57Did Alex just say my name?
00:38:01What did you say?
00:38:03Did you just call me Izzy?
00:38:08I, uh...
00:38:21Isabel?
00:38:22What are you doing in my closet?
00:38:26Oh.
00:38:30Oh.
00:38:30Oh.
00:38:31Oh.
00:38:31Oh.
00:38:31Oh.
00:38:32Oh.
00:38:32Oh.
00:38:32Oh.
00:38:32Oh.
00:38:32Oh.
00:38:33Oh.
00:38:34Oh.
00:38:34What the fuck?
00:38:35Isabel, what are you doing here?
00:38:37What else?
00:38:37She's being a creepy stalker as usual.
00:38:41Seriously, Isabel?
00:38:42Hiding in the closet to catch a glimpse of us fucking?
00:38:45Alex, no.
00:38:45That's not what I was...
00:38:46I just...
00:38:47I just...
00:38:48I'm just gonna return something to you.
00:38:50It's yours.
00:38:53What the hell is that?
00:38:55Just...
00:38:56A raggedy old t-shirt?
00:39:00Alex, this is yours.
00:39:10You sure you want this?
00:39:13100%.
00:39:16What?
00:39:17You think you can win Alex back with a dirty old t-shirt?
00:39:20No.
00:39:21That's not what...
00:39:22Alex, do you even want this?
00:39:35Why would I want some dirty raggedy t-shirt?
00:39:38It means nothing to me.
00:39:42Hear that?
00:39:43Get the fuck out!
00:39:45Alex doesn't want you here!
00:39:50She's right.
00:39:52You should leave.
00:39:59Don't let that loser ruin the mood.
00:40:02I know that you only said her name because you hate her so much.
00:40:06I can help you forget all about her.
00:40:09Zoe, stop. I'm not in the mood.
00:40:11Oh, wait. We can try something else then.
00:40:14You'll love it.
00:40:17Zoe, I'm serious. Stop.
00:40:19Stop resisting. It's gonna feel amazing.
00:40:22I promise.
00:40:26I said no.
00:40:27Leave me the fuck alone.
00:40:28What the fuck is wrong with you, Alex?
00:40:31You're sick in the head just like that psycho freak, Isabelle.
00:40:34I fucking hate you, asshole.
00:40:41Damn it, Isabelle.
00:40:43How do you make everything so fucking difficult?
00:41:01Where is it? It should be right here.
00:41:03Looking for this?
00:41:09Looking for this?
00:41:14I mean, don't think it means something. Whatever.
00:41:18I just don't want another creep like you getting their hands on it.
00:41:36Good morning, sunshine. I made pancakes.
00:41:42Hey, Mom.
00:41:44I'm going to the care home to visit Alex's mom.
00:41:47Don't worry. I'll be back soon.
00:41:51Miss Brooks?
00:41:52Sorry it took me so long to visit.
00:41:54I know that it's because of me that you're like this.
00:41:58If it wasn't for me, then you and Mr. Brooks would still be together.
00:42:02Happily in love like before.
00:42:09I have missed you, my love. I have been thinking about you all day.
00:42:14Even when training your new recruits?
00:42:16Even while putting out fires and rescuing that old lady's cat out of a tree.
00:42:23Gross.
00:42:25Son, one of these days, you're going to fall in love.
00:42:27And then you'll know exactly how we feel.
00:42:31If I could turn back time, I'd make it so that he never saved me that many.
00:42:35Don't cry, my dear.
00:42:37You ruined your pretty face.
00:42:39Okay, I'll stop.
00:42:41Good news. Alex got into Princeton.
00:42:45And what about you, my dear?
00:42:47I'm not going anywhere.
00:42:49Ever.
00:42:50I'll probably die here.
00:42:52Be buried here.
00:42:54For all eternity.
00:42:57What are you talking about?
00:43:01Alex, I was just visiting your mom and I didn't know you'd be here too.
00:43:04What are you saying?
00:43:06You know she's unwanted, you know she can't handle any more stress right now.
00:43:09Alex, I-
00:43:10Was torturing me not enough?
00:43:12You really need to drag my mom into this too.
00:43:16Hey, don't speak to a lady like that.
00:43:20Are those for me?
00:43:22Yes, Mom.
00:43:24They're, uh, yellow roses.
00:43:26Your favorite.
00:43:27Remember how Dad used to always bring you those?
00:43:34Steven.
00:43:35Steven, you're back.
00:43:38Oh, I missed you so much.
00:43:40You were gone fighting fires for so long this time.
00:43:46Isabel.
00:43:52I've been thinking about it.
00:43:54About my parents.
00:43:56And about us.
00:43:58And I think I figured it out.
00:44:00I don't hate you anymore.
00:44:03Really?
00:44:04But what happened?
00:44:06It can't be undone.
00:44:08I can't go back to how things were.
00:44:21So after graduation, I'm taking my mom and we're leaving this town.
00:44:25And we are going to forget everything in it.
00:44:29Including you.
00:44:32Easy.
00:44:37This is a goodbye, Alex.
00:44:40Forever.
00:44:42Goodbye, my easy.
00:44:54Steven, let's go!
00:45:11I heard our attending physician is the youngest cardiologist ever hired by the hospital.
00:45:18He's not just brilliant.
00:45:20He's ridiculously hot.
00:45:26Hello, everybody.
00:45:27Welcome to the Presbyterian Hospital.
00:45:29For the next three months, I will be your attending physician.
00:45:34All right.
00:45:35So that's all from me.
00:45:36There are no further questions.
00:45:37You're free to go.
00:45:43Actually, I did have a question.
00:45:45Are you from after work?
00:45:48Shelly, right?
00:45:50Yeah.
00:45:50I'm sorry.
00:45:51I'm busy.
00:45:53And this is a hospital.
00:45:55Please adhere to the dress codes.
00:46:01Dude, that was harsh.
00:46:02Would it really kill you to cut them some slack?
00:46:04I've known you since college.
00:46:06I've never even seen you go on a date with a single girl.
00:46:09Yeah.
00:46:10Hey, but chicks aren't your thing, man.
00:46:12I'm not the one to judge.
00:46:13Fuck off, man.

01:00:11yes
01:00:11It looks like a haunted house in here.
01:00:15Don't worry, I can help you spruce it up.
01:00:18What are you doing here?
01:00:19Why so cold, Alex?
01:00:21Weren't we a thing back in the day?
01:00:23We just hooked up. Okay, we were never official.
01:00:26It's still a heartbreaker, I see.
01:00:29Well, I was super into you back then.
01:00:32Okay. I'm not really in the mood for visitors tonight.
01:00:39Hmm. What's up?
01:00:43No. Nothing.
01:00:47Oh. So, even Alex Brooks watches porn every now and then, huh?
01:00:53I get it. You've been single for all these years.
01:00:56You need to meet your needs somehow.
01:01:00I haven't forgotten about you, Alex.
01:01:03You don't need to do everything by yourself. Let me fill those needs.
01:01:09Get out!
01:01:11Seriously, Alex?
01:01:13Been a decade and you're still a fucking asshole?
01:01:23So you came back for Isabel?
01:01:26I seriously don't understand. Why are you not over a bitch who's been dead for ten years?
01:01:31She's not dead! Stop spreading lies about her!
01:01:34You're crazy!
01:01:36You need to get your head fucking checked.
01:01:42Why does everyone say that you're dead?
01:01:45They're lying, right?
01:01:47And where are you, Izzy?
01:01:54So that's where you are.
01:01:56I'm coming, Izzy.
01:02:06Hello, Mrs. Spencer.
01:02:08Alex?
01:02:13Thanks.
01:02:14It's been ages.
01:02:15What have you been up to all these years?
01:02:18I became a heart surgeon.
01:02:19A heart surgeon?
01:02:21That's fantastic.
01:02:22You found a great career.
01:02:23It was Isabel's dream to be working with Doctors Without Borders.
01:02:28If she was still around, I bet she'd be in some foreign place saving lives.
01:02:33If she was still around?
01:02:37Holy shit.
01:02:38Is Mrs. Spencer in on this too?
01:02:40Is she helping Izzy hide from me?
01:02:42Mrs. Spencer, do you know where Isabel's living now?
01:02:48I have something I need to talk to her about.
01:02:52Isabel?
01:02:52Are you in there?
01:03:12Sorry, Mrs. Spencer.
01:03:14I gotta get going.
01:03:16I'll see you again soon.
01:03:20No.
01:03:20No, it's a lie.
01:03:22She can't be dead.
01:03:23I promised I would become a doctor and I'd fix her heart.
01:03:26I'm gonna find her doctor from before.
01:03:28He knows her conditions better than anyone.
01:03:30Yes, Isabel Spencer.
01:03:32How could I forget her?
01:03:34It's been almost a decade since anybody mentioned her.
01:03:37Has she not gotten treatment for a decade?
01:03:39She was a stubborn girl.
01:03:40She once insisted on being discharged right after surgery.
01:03:44Is that something about needing to testify in court for a friend?
01:03:49I don't think we should see each other again.
01:03:54You were in so much pain, but I didn't see it.
01:03:57Come to think of it, I remember you now.
01:04:01You used to come visit her when she was sick.
01:04:04But why'd you stop visiting towards the end?
01:04:06Toward the end?
01:04:08You were four of us, too.
01:04:13It's not true.
01:04:14It's not true, right, Izzy?
01:04:17You can't be dead.
01:04:19Alex.
01:04:50It's not true, I'm sorry.
01:04:52It's not true.
01:04:52It's not true.
01:04:52It's not true.
01:04:52It's not true.
01:04:54It's not true.
01:04:58It's not true.
01:05:01How is it?
01:05:03Disgusting.
01:05:04Liar.
01:05:06No, but if you really want to taste, I have the perfect solution.
01:05:09What's that?
01:05:14Well, how was it?
01:05:16Disgustingly sweet, right?
01:05:17I think he just wanted to kiss me.
01:05:22Isabel, how could you just die?
01:05:24How could you disappear just like that?
01:05:26Maybe it's really true.
01:05:28Maybe she really is gone.
01:05:33Isabel.
01:05:35Isabel!
01:05:44Isabel, I knew it was you.
01:05:46I knew you weren't dead.
01:05:48Alex.
01:05:51I'm time to see.
01:05:56Why is everyone saying that you died the summer you graduated high school?
01:06:01I had to leave the city.
01:06:04Leave all the pain behind.
01:06:07And, hey, I ended up back here in the end.
01:06:12Alex, have you forgiven me?
01:06:14I told you, I don't hate you anymore.
01:06:17Listen, I was so young and dumb back then, okay?
01:06:20For the last ten years, I have thought about you every day, hell, every minute, every second.
01:06:26Me too.
01:06:27It's not too late, Isabel.
01:06:29We can start over.
01:06:30I'm never going to let you leave my side again.
01:06:34Sorry about the mess.
01:06:36No one's been in this house for years.
01:06:38But you can stay here with me now.
01:06:44How are you?
01:06:45How's your heart?
01:06:47I've been good.
01:06:48Yeah, my health has improved a lot.
01:06:50Still not perfect.
01:06:52My mom moved in with my grandma.
01:06:54And then I left for college.
01:06:56Came back after graduation.
01:06:57So why didn't you just move back into your old house?
01:07:00Or is it because you didn't want to see me?
01:07:04I just needed somewhere close to work.
01:07:08Why wouldn't I want to see you?
01:07:17So you know everything?
01:07:18I am so sorry, Isabel.
01:07:21I should have protected you.
01:07:23Been there for you.
01:07:25But I treated you terribly.
01:07:27Do you hate me?
01:07:28I could never hate you.
01:07:37Sorry.
01:07:39Just really excited to see you.
01:07:41It's fine.
01:07:43It's okay.
01:07:43Don't worry about it.
01:07:45I just got back to you.
01:07:47It's pretty empty in here.
01:07:49How about we go get something to eat?
01:07:51Yeah?
01:07:52Okay.
01:07:59What can I get you, sir?
01:08:02Pancakes.
01:08:03Definitely pancakes.
01:08:05You're probably craving them as usual.
01:08:06It's been ten years.
01:08:08I'm surprised you remember.
01:08:09How could I forget?
01:08:11I'll take a burger and pancakes for the lady.
01:08:22Hey there, handsome.
01:08:24I'm alone, too.
01:08:26You mind if I slide in?
01:08:28Uh, yeah.
01:08:30We do mind.
01:08:31We?
01:08:32Me and the beautiful girl sitting right in front of me.
01:08:36She's the only girl I like.
01:08:38And that's how it's been for a long, long time.
01:08:42Weirdo.
01:08:43Could have just said no.
01:08:48It's crazy.
01:08:50I also like the guy sitting across from me.
01:08:53And I have for a long, long time.
01:09:00Your total for today comes out to $55.43.
01:09:04Want to get that to go?
01:09:05It'll make a good midnight time.
01:09:09Sir, I don't mean to pry, but who exactly are you speaking to?
01:09:15Uh, my girlfriend.
01:09:18But, sir, there's no one there.
01:09:22What do you mean?
01:09:31Oh.
01:09:33There she is.
01:09:39Be right back.
01:09:45What you feeling for dinner, Izzy?
01:09:46And don't say pancakes again.
01:09:50Isabel?
01:09:55We have a visual on target.
01:09:59I know it's not where she's got you.
01:10:04Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you.
01:10:05I wanted to see what you want for dinner.
01:10:07I hope.
01:10:10Promise you'll never leave my side again.
01:10:12I promise.
01:10:14You saw my videos.
01:10:16You know that you're my one and only.
01:10:22You already missed out on a decade.
01:10:24And I don't want to waste any more time.
01:10:26Are you saying that you want to be official?
01:10:28If I am.
01:10:30Then what's your answer?
01:10:32Yes.
01:10:34A thousand percent, yes.
01:10:37Let's be together always.
01:10:39Forever.
01:10:40Till we get old and gray.
01:11:09What are you watching?
01:11:09It's shiny.
01:11:11It's actually really scary.
01:11:13You're so warm.
01:11:17Jesus!
01:11:20How do people watch this?
01:11:23You're not scared?
01:11:23Oh, yes.
01:11:25Scared to death.
01:11:31Hold it any tighter and I think you're going to snap it in half.
01:11:35Sorry.
01:11:36It's okay.
01:11:37I just said you were holding it tight.
01:11:39Not that I want you to stop.
01:11:41I like the way you touch me.
01:11:45It's all right.
01:11:51I want you to do it.
01:12:17Isabel?
01:12:46It scared me for a sec, I almost thought you'd laugh.
01:12:55I'm not going anywhere, I told you I'd stay with you, remember?
01:13:00Isabel, let's get married.
01:13:05Like nothing more.
01:13:06Isabel?
01:13:08Isabel?
01:13:10Isabel?
01:13:21Isabel?
01:13:32Isabel?
01:13:33Isabel, sir, is holding a ten year memorial for Isabel.
01:13:36Can you come?
01:13:38It's this Sunday at the church.
01:13:43What's wrong?
01:13:44Who's on the phone?
01:13:45Alex, you look like you've just seen a ghost.
01:13:47Who is it?
01:13:48Uh, nothing.
01:13:50Just a scam.
01:13:52As long as you're by my side, that's all that matters.
01:13:59Alex, please.
01:14:01I'm sorry, it's nothing.
01:14:05June 23rd, the anniversary of my dad's death.
01:14:12Can I go with you this time?
01:14:13Yeah.
01:14:16I love that.
01:14:23Hey dad.
01:14:26It's me.
01:14:38I've been good.
01:14:40Mom's doing a lot better too now.
01:14:42You don't need to worry.
01:14:44You'd want me to move on, let go of my resentment.
01:14:47I finally have.
01:14:50Isabel said she's going to marry me.
01:14:55We're going to start our own family together.
01:15:12Hey, what's wrong?
01:15:20I'm sorry.
01:15:22I didn't mean to scare you.
01:15:24I didn't think I'd react like that.
01:15:26It's okay.
01:15:27You don't have to look.
01:15:29Okay?
01:15:29Let's go.
01:15:34Sorry.
01:15:35I didn't mean to scare you.
01:15:37I just didn't think I was going to react like that.
01:15:40It's okay.
01:15:42How about a massage?
01:15:57You selfish bitch!
01:15:59Go to hell.
01:16:11No!
01:16:12No!
01:16:16It's okay!
01:16:17Why would you help me?
01:16:18Now I'm already dead!
01:16:19I hate you!
01:16:21And I never want to see you again!
01:16:26Isabel?
01:16:42Isabel!
01:16:50Isabel!
01:16:52Isabel?
01:16:55Didn't you hear me yelling? Why didn't you answer me?
01:16:57Listen up. I can't breathe.
01:17:00Isabel, sorry.
01:17:02I swear I didn't hear you.
01:17:04What's wrong?
01:17:05Nothing. Just a nightmare.
01:17:09Isabel, will you marry me?
01:17:11I can't handle this constant fear of losing you.
01:17:15I want to marry you, Isabel.
01:17:18To be with you always.
01:17:20Day and night, year after year.
01:17:22Okay.
01:17:23Yeah, let's do it.
01:17:27Great. All right, you go pick out a dress.
01:17:30And I'll call the church and buy you a ring.
01:17:32Oh, and I'll call our moms.
01:17:35Hey, Mom.
01:17:36I'm getting married.
01:17:38To Izzy.
01:17:39The wedding's tomorrow.
01:17:41Same place you and Dad got married.
01:17:43Hope you can make it.
01:17:56Why isn't the pastor here yet?
01:17:59We're just early.
01:18:00We'll be here soon.
01:18:05Mom.
01:18:08Mom.
01:18:09Mom, why is Dr. Hart here?
01:18:11No offense, Doc, but this is a family-only wedding.
01:18:15Mom, what's wrong?
01:18:17Alex, can you still see Isabel right now?
01:18:20Yeah, of course. She's right in front of me.
01:18:24Have you been keeping up with your meds?
01:18:25Do you remember why I prescribed them in the first place?
01:18:28I...
01:18:31They're for treating hallucinations.
01:18:33Huh.
01:18:36Not hallucinations.
01:18:37What are you talking about?
01:18:38Like, Isabel, she's alive.
01:18:40She's right. She's right here in front of me.
01:18:41I'm not hallucinating her.
01:18:42Deep down, you already know the truth.
01:18:45Don't you?
01:18:46You're just too afraid to admit it.
01:18:49To admit the truth that Isabel died ten years ago.
01:18:54No, Mom, why would you say that she's alive and well?
01:18:57Why would you say that she's...
01:19:05Isabel!
01:19:06Isabel!
01:19:08No.
01:19:08No.
01:19:09No, no, no.
01:19:10She has to be here.
01:19:12You scared her off!
01:19:13You scared her off!
01:19:14That's...
01:19:15Wake up, Alex.
01:19:17Isabel is dead.
01:19:19How long are you gonna keep lying to yourself?
01:19:22No, no, Mom.
01:19:23She's not.
01:19:24She's alive.
01:19:24She is.
01:19:25She really is.
01:19:26You think she's alive?
01:19:27I'll take you to see her right now.
01:19:36Take a good look.
01:19:37What does it say?
01:19:40What does it say?
01:19:46No.
01:19:48Oh, no.
01:19:49Isabel.
01:19:52No, anything.
01:19:53Anyone but her.
01:19:54Anyone but Isabel.
01:19:55No.
01:19:56Anyone but you.
01:19:57No.
01:19:57No.
01:19:58No.
01:20:00No.
01:20:04No.
01:20:07No.
01:20:09No.
01:20:10No.
01:20:10No.
01:20:11No.
01:20:13No.
01:20:15No.
01:20:16No.
01:20:17I'm here to take you.
01:20:20We can finally be together.
01:20:34My mother?
01:20:37Alex?
01:20:39Alex?
01:20:44Miss Fencer.
01:20:46Your mother told me you haven't been doing too well lately.
01:20:48I'm, uh, I'm fine.
01:20:52I'm just trying to find Isabel.
01:20:56Alex, I know it's been hard for you to accept the truth, but Isabel...
01:21:03Isabel's dead.
01:21:04She died ten years ago, and we have no choice but to accept it.
01:21:08I can't accept that. You'll never accept that.
01:21:12How can I accept it?
01:21:13The last time I saw her, I said the most.
01:21:16The most horrible things to her.
01:21:19And those words that echo in my mind all the time.
01:21:22I mean, that's the last memory she has of me.
01:21:26How can I forgive myself?
01:21:28I love her.
01:21:30And I never got to tell her.
01:21:33Alex, don't beat yourself up.
01:21:35Isabel wouldn't have wanted you to torture yourself because of her.
01:21:39How can you be so sure?
01:21:41But I can't tell her that I love her.
01:21:43What is the point of going on living?
01:21:49When I was organizing Isabel's things, I found this.
01:21:54This is her last words to you.
01:21:55I hope this helps you understand how she felt.
01:22:04Hey, Alex.
01:22:08My time on Earth was short.
01:22:10But I'm leaving with no regrets.
01:22:12Because I was loved by the most incredible boy in the world.
01:22:17You, Alex Brooks.
01:22:19I hope that in a world without me, you'll be able to find your own path forward.
01:22:23And live an amazing, spectacular life.
01:22:26Love.
01:22:27Isabel.
01:22:41Need something for you.
01:22:46What are you proposing to me?
01:22:48It's a friendship ring.
01:22:50Dummy.
01:22:55How did I miss this all these years?
01:23:01Hey, Isabel.
01:23:03Came to say goodbye.
01:23:04It was your dream to join doctors without borders.
01:23:07To treat those who are...
01:23:08As fortunate.
01:23:09Well, I went and I applied too.
01:23:11I'll leave for Sudan soon.
01:23:13I'm gonna take the love you gave me.
01:23:15And live the life that you were brave enough to dream of.
01:23:18Isabel, you'll always be my girl.
01:23:22I love you.
01:23:28I love you.
01:23:29I love you.
01:23:30I love you.
01:23:30I love you.
01:23:31I love you.
