Dying for Love

Short filmTranscript
00:00Death always wins.
00:03I know this to be true.
00:15I should be more comfortable.
00:19I know.
00:20Sucks, right?
00:22How do you know?
00:24My dad always said so.
00:27Try and get some sleep.
00:34I almost feel bad for the pretty doctor.
00:37But her patient's time is up.
00:49That's why I'm here.
00:51When a human's time comes, the Grim Reaper arrives.
00:57Only we can take a soul on the verge.
01:01And a Reaper's weapon is the kiss of death.
01:14Fear, defeat.
01:17I see it all on their faces.
01:19And nothing is more satisfying to watch.
01:24Starting compressions.
01:26Come on.
01:27Come on, stay with me.
01:29Fight, come on, fight.
01:31Come on.
01:33But when I look at her...
01:39Gabby.
01:39I won't lose her.
01:42I won't lose her.
01:43I see fight.
01:44Defiance like I've never seen.
01:46Gabby.
01:48Gabby.
01:50Time of death, 10.51.
01:53She isn't afraid.
01:55And that's what makes her dangerous.
01:58And that's what makes her dangerous.
02:05Humans are prey.
02:13Each assignment from death is a point of pride.
02:16I look forward to their arrival.
02:22Gabby.
02:24I have never questioned death before, but she is different.
02:29I need to know.
02:31Why her?
02:37I think this chapter on tricks is going to give me an aneurysm.
02:40Well, Milo, the good news is you need a brain to have an aneurysm, so you should be fine.
02:45Well, we can't all be straight-A students like you since kindergarten, so...
02:48Oh, well, you do have your looks.
02:53How can I help you?
02:55I'm having chest pains.
03:00I can help you right this way?
03:02Yeah.
03:07When did the pain start, Mr...?
03:09Tobias' fate started last night, Dr. Lawson.
03:15I'm not a doctor yet, but I promise you're in good hands.
03:18You can just call me Gabby.
03:20Gabby, how does it come so naturally to you?
03:22My dad, he passed when I was young.
03:26Had a rare disease.
03:28I'm sorry to hear that.
03:31Is that what made you want to be a doctor?
03:34I'm working to find a cure.
03:36I'm really close to a breakthrough.
03:40You must be destined to.
03:43So that's why death wants to stop her.
03:46Can you lift up your shirt, please?
03:53Cool tattoo.
03:54It's a memento more.
03:56Symbol of death.
03:58It's Latin, right?
04:01Remember, you must die.
04:06But there's more to the saying.
04:09Lemento more and memento vivere.
04:11Remember to live.
04:16Everything sounds good.
04:18How do you feel?
04:20Better now.
04:21Tonight will not be easy.
04:33Eliza, you cannot keep letting yourself in whenever you want.
04:37Oh, Tobias.
04:38Don't act like you haven't missed me.
04:40A 400-year habit is heartbreak.
04:44I've been craving a real kiss.
04:47Humans keel over so quickly.
04:49I told you last time we're done, okay?
04:53Whatever you say.
04:55You and I both know how long that usually lasts.
04:59What's going on?
05:01It's nothing.
05:02It's a job.
05:04I know you can still talk to me, Tobias.
05:07When will it be done?
05:09Tonight.
05:11Okay.
05:23May I?
05:24Oh, hi.
05:26It's you.
05:28Tobias, right?
05:29Yeah.
05:31Should I be flattered, Gabby, or do you remember all your patients' names?
05:34I do, actually.
05:36Okay.
05:37Not that you shouldn't be flattered, though.
05:40I don't think there's that much to see in me.
05:43I think under all the cool tattoos, there's a bigger heart than you give yourself credit for.
05:47I can see it.
05:50Isn't it easier to keep people at a distance if you can't save everybody?
05:54You've known death to win.
05:58I don't know.
05:59I think love endures everything.
06:02Even death.
06:07Uh, well, I'm headed that way, so...
06:11Can I walk you?
06:12No, no, no. It's fine.
06:14You sure?
06:14Yeah.
06:16At least take my umbrella.
06:17I'm good. Thank you, though.
06:19I'm sorry.
06:23For the rain.
06:25I'll be fine.
06:27Um...
06:28Bye, Tobias.
06:30Good luck.
06:44Bye.
06:47Bye.
06:49Bye.
06:59No!
07:00Gabby!
07:02Bye!
07:05Bye!
07:10Are you okay?
07:12Yeah, I'm fine.
07:14I'm okay.
07:15Tobias should go to the...
07:18Where's Tobias?
07:20Who was that?
07:21The patient from today.
07:24I think he...
07:26He just saved my life.
07:30Come on, let's get you checked out.
07:39What have I done?
08:14Gabby Lawson must die, or you will.
08:19That's in two days.
08:23Okay.
08:26She has to die.
08:31I think the car came out of nowhere.
08:33I don't know how he saw it.
08:35It's like he knew what was coming.
08:38What?
08:39Only you would show up to work the day after you almost died.
08:42Can't let you beat my attendance tree.
08:44Did the driver get looked at?
08:46He probably has a nasty case of whiplash.
08:48Yes, Gabby, the guy who almost killed you yesterday
08:51got a very snazzy neck brace.
08:53Hello, it's not like he did it on purpose.
08:55I'm sure he was scared, too.
08:56Yeah, well, I was scared.
08:58I can't believe I almost lost you, and I never...
09:03Never what?
09:07Milo.
09:08Never told you how I really feel.
09:13You're my best friend, and I didn't want to ruin that,
09:17but...
09:17Gabby, I've been crazy about you since third grade.
09:24I love you.
09:28I love you, too, but...
09:32But you're not in love with me.
09:35Yeah.
09:36I know I can make you happy.
09:39I'm not half bad, if I say so myself.
09:41You'd make any girl happy.
09:43But you're not any girl.
09:44You're the girl.
09:49Just think about it.
09:53Whenever I rehearsed this in my head, I sounded way more cool and suave.
09:57You've never been cooler, suave.
10:00You've always just been you.
10:02You're one of the most important people in my life.
10:04Nothing's ever going to change that.
10:20Tobias.
10:23Hello again.
10:26Can we talk?
10:30Sure.
10:31Sorry, Milo.
10:40I, um...
10:41I wanted to thank you for yesterday.
10:44I literally owe you my life.
10:46Are you okay, though?
10:49Not even a scrape.
10:52Great.
10:54Uh...
10:55Let me buy you a drink or something.
10:57All right.
10:57I know it's not much, but I want to repay you.
11:00We could do a drink in my place.
11:04Tonight?
11:08Um...
11:09Yeah.
11:11I have to kiss her.
11:13Okay?
11:15This time, no mistakes.
11:27Hey.
11:29Hey.
11:35You like the house?
11:36This is not a house.
11:39Hey.
11:40I live in a house.
11:42With three roommates in one bathroom.
11:46This is a castle.
11:49Who are you?
11:51Uh, you could say I'm a collector.
11:54Huh.
11:55You're not one of those secret princes, are you?
11:58From some little European city I've never heard of?
12:01Sorry to disappoint, but no.
12:05This symbol, it's like your tattoo.
12:13To my life scene.
12:31Like this?
12:33Closer.
12:35Do you like what you do?
12:39I thought I did.
12:42What changed?
12:44On my last assignment, I forgot myself.
12:48But I'll fix it.
12:50I have to.
12:52Is that what you really want?
12:55It doesn't matter, it's my job.
12:58It matters.
12:59It's life.
13:02Those moments when your instincts kick in, that's the real you.
13:10What does your heart fight?
13:16You're remarkable.
13:17Whoa.
13:30I, this, uh, this isn't right.
13:35What isn't right?
13:37You shouldn't be here.
13:40Please go
13:43Are you kidding?
13:45Okay
13:46I'm sorry
13:50Thanks for drinks
13:59Just in time for a nightcap
14:05I'm not your first guest tonight, am I?
14:08I don't think you were invited
14:13I know that look
14:16What's going on, Tobias?
14:21I'll be fine
14:24You can trust me
14:27I'm playing with my food
14:30You didn't kill him yet?
14:33How does death feel about this?
14:35It doesn't matter
14:36She'll be dead soon
14:39She has to be
14:42She?
14:45It's just about a girl
14:51Don't push your left side
14:54I don't want anything to happen to you
14:56I don't know
15:00You must have a lot in your mind
15:04I have the perfect distraction
15:18What?
15:20That's enough
15:21You know I can make you feel better
15:23Eliza
15:27I'm not in the mood
15:35You like her
15:37You know your way out
15:47I don't know
15:49I'm not in the mood
15:56Do you love them?
16:01I don't know
16:01It's hard enough
16:08But I can't believe
16:09I need to get this done.
16:16I want to apologize about last night.
16:18I shouldn't have kicked you out like that.
16:19Yeah, why did you?
16:21Because I...
16:22I didn't want the champagne to do the talking.
16:25Sounds like bullshit.
16:27I mean, first you're all over me.
16:29Then you stonewall me and practically yell at me.
16:32I'm not some toy you can pick up and put down whenever you want.
16:34It's not like that.
16:35You're...
16:37You're too good for me.
16:41And I just hurt people.
16:44And so I'm sorry I pulled away, and can I have another chance?
16:50I like you.
16:51Okay, but your big house and your fancy car don't matter to me.
16:54I want honesty.
16:55If you can't do that, then...
16:57Let's save each other the trouble.
16:59Okay, I understand.
17:00And I'm...
17:01I promise I won't waste any more time.
17:03I know it's...
17:05I know it's precious.
17:09You look pale.
17:10Are you feeling okay?
17:13Um, I didn't sleep well last night.
17:15I had someone on my mind.
17:18Yeah.
17:20Me too.
17:26I can't do that.
17:29I know it's been too hot.
17:31I know it's a great job.
17:33After this, I'll see you later.
17:33Bye-bye.
17:35And that was another one.
17:35I love you now.
17:36Bye-bye.
17:36Bye-bye.
17:39Bye-bye.
17:52Um, that assignment that, uh, I mentioned yesterday, it's almost over, so.
17:59You don't sound very enthused.
18:02I just kind of wish things were different.
18:06What's stopping you? Your boss?
18:08In a way, yeah.
18:10I used to think I had some kind of power, but, uh, I realized I could lose it at any
18:16moment and become nothing.
18:21Tobias, I don't know what you want, but whatever it is, you should fight for it.
18:28Yeah, I can see why, uh, you're destined to find that cure.
18:32Make the impossible sound easy, and you have the most beautiful soul of anyone.
18:39I've never met.
18:41I don't know.
18:52I don't know.
18:53I don't know.
18:55I don't know.
18:56I don't know.
18:58I don't know.

29:23Hey.
29:26Why don't you buy me a drink?
29:36Well, if tonight was my last night on Earth, I wouldn't want it any other way.
29:40Neither would I.
29:46I'll find a way to make it work.
29:49A human and a reaper will just have to be the first.
29:53I like the sound of that.
29:57I mean, we've made it this far, right?
30:02Death can't always win.
30:06I still don't know what you see in me.
30:12You defied death for me.
30:17When it really mattered, you did the right thing.
30:20You have a good heart to us.
30:48I did the right thing.
30:51I don't know what you see in them.

32:52Hi, I'm looking for Gabby Lawson
32:54No, yeah, she got the night off, right, that's right
32:58What's that about Milo?
32:59He, uh, he missed his shift
33:04Eliza
33:42No!
33:43No!
33:45Are you okay? Did you hear you?
33:46Okay, okay
33:48I woke up and you weren't there, I didn't know
33:49I didn't know
33:50She threatened Milo, Tobias, listen
33:52Look at you two
33:56I told you I'd make you regret it if you touch her
33:58And I told you I'd find her
34:00I dangled Buddy Boy's life and she came running
34:08Tobias, wait!
34:09I know about the letter!
34:11It changes nothing, you and Milo have to get out of here now
34:13It changes everything!
34:15If I'm not dead by midnight, you'll be gone forever
34:18You're dead by midnight?
34:20What?
34:25What is punishing you?
34:28Because you disobeyed, because you let her live
34:30I'm not losing her
34:31You can't sacrifice yourself
34:33She has to die
34:34If you want her, you go through me
