Short filmTranscript
00:00Death always wins.
00:03I know this to be true.
00:15That 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.
00:48That'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.
01:13Fear.
01:14Defeat.
01:16I see it all on their faces.
01:19And nothing is more satisfying to watch.
01:24Starting compressions.
01:26Come on.
01:27Come on.
01:28Stay with me.
01:29Fight.
01:30Come on.
01:30Fight.
01:31Come on.
01:32But when I look at her.
01:38Gabby.
01:40I won't lose her.
01:42I see fight.
01:44Defiance like I've never seen.
01:46Gabby.
01:48Gabby.
01:49Time of death.
01:51Time of death.
01:5210.51.
01:53She isn't afraid.
01:56And that's what makes her dangerous.
02:06Humans 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.
02:32Why her?
02:37I think this chapter on trachs is gonna give me an aneurysm.
02:40Well, Milo, the good news is you'd 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.
02:48You do have your looks.
02:52How can I help you?
02:54I'm having chest pains.
03:00Um...
03:00I can help you.
03:01Right this way?
03:02Yeah.
03:06When 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.
03:24He 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?
03:52Cool tattoo?
03:54It's, uh...
03:55Memento more.
03:56Symbol of death.
03:58It's Latin, right?
04:01Remember, you must die.
04:06But there's more to the saying.
04:09Memento more, 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.
04:55But you 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.
05:25Hi.
05:26It's you.
05:28Tobias, right?
05:29Yeah.
05:30Should 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. I think love endures everything. Even death.
06:07Uh, well, uh, I'm, I'm headed that way, so...
06:11Can I walk you?
06:12No, no, no. It's fine.
06:14You sure?
06:15Yeah.
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.

10:52Great.
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.
11:02Can I?
11:07Um, yeah.
11:11I have to kiss her.
11:14This time, no mistakes.
11:27Hey.
11:29Hey.
11:34You like the house?
11:36This is not a house.
11:39I 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?
11:58You're some little European city I've never heard of?
12:01Sorry to disappoint, but no.
12:04This symbol.
12:07This symbol.
12:08It's like your tattoo.
12:13To my life scene.
12:31Like this?
12:33Closer.
12:35Do you like what you do?
12:38I thought I did.
12:41What 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.
12:56It's my job.
12:58It matters.
12:59It's wise.
13:02Those moments when your instincts kick in, that's the real you.
13:10What does your heart fight?
13:17Irremarkable.
13:30This, 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.
14:41She has to be.
14:44She?
14:44It's just about a girl.
14:51Don't push your luck twice.
14:54I don't want anything to happen.
14:55I 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.
15:07I have the perfect distraction.
15:18I don't want anything to happen to you.
15:21I don't want anything to happen to you.
15:26I don't want anything to happen to you.
15:35You like her.
15:36I...
15:38You know your way out.
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 of your 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.
17:22Okay.
17:36I had someone on my mind.
17:44I don't know.
17:45I don't know.
17:45I don't know.
17:45I don't know.
17:46I don't know.
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, realized I could lose it at any moment.
18:16And become... nothing.
18:21Devise, 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.
18:32You make the impossible sound easy, and you have the most beautiful soul of anyone I've ever met.
19:05Thanks.
19:07Thanks.
19:17sorry
19:21what is your problem?
19:23sorry, I can explain, wait
19:25you know, I want to believe you're a good guy, Tobias
19:27I'm not an idiot
19:28I'd rather be with someone who actually wants me, Jesus
19:30no, wait, wait, I want to kiss you
19:32I really do, I just
19:34I can't
19:38can't
19:38okay, wait, wait
19:43okay, there's something I have to show you
19:56I really, I do like you
19:58I really like you
19:59it's just, I can't kiss you because it would kill you
20:04what?
20:06Gabby, I'm a grim reaper
20:09the kiss of death is how
20:12we rape souls
20:14rape souls?
20:16I know
20:18exactly
20:19when humans are going to die
20:22and in that moment, death sends
20:23one of us to end their life
20:25with our kiss
20:29if you had any head trauma lately
20:30changes in medication
20:32I know it sounds crazy
20:33and I'm not supposed to show a human any of this
20:40the first time I saw you
20:42I was only there to reap that woman's soul
20:46she died at 10.51pm
20:49what is this?
20:52every card is an assignment from death
20:55another soul to reap
20:57another life to cut short
20:59and I never questioned that job
21:03and then I got
21:06this
21:16that night in the rain
21:18the car
21:20was meant to hit you
21:21and I was supposed to let the accident happen
21:24and
21:24and end your life
21:25but I couldn't bring myself to do that
21:36this is why
21:38you can't stop yourself from helping people
21:40this is why
21:41this is why you're destined to find the cure
21:42this is why death wants you out of the picture
21:44you're going to save so many lives
21:45you're going to save so many people
21:50that's why you were there
21:52I was supposed to die

26:22you always said to follow my heart
26:24but I think my heart must be crazy
26:29because I can't stop thinking about him
26:36Gabby
26:38you said death wants to stop me now
26:40before I can cure my dad's illness
26:42anything else I should know
26:46no I told you everything
26:49look
26:49I have no idea
26:51how to stop a murderous grim reaper on my own
26:55but I do know one who for whatever reason
26:58protected me instead of killing me
27:00so why did you spare me
27:04Eliza made it seem like that's unheard of
27:08that night in the rain
27:10you said I had a heart
27:13and you see this thing in me
27:15that I don't get to see in myself
27:17and I want to be that man
27:22and I know
27:23is that true too
27:26desperately
27:31Eliza's right there's no future for us
27:35I can keep you safe
27:37I can protect you from her but
27:40but you deserve somebody good
27:45or at least someone who can kiss you on the lips
28:00you don't have to kiss on the lips
28:22are you sure
28:23yes
28:26yes
29:19hello handsome
29:23Uh, hey.
29:25Why don't you buy me a dream?
29:36Well, if tonight was my last night on Earth,
29:38I 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.
30:05I still don't know what you see in me.
30:12You defied death for me.
30:15But...
30:17When it really mattered, you did the right thing.
30:20You had a good heart to us.
30:50You did try to hurt me.
30:58It looks truly great for me!
30:59How should I park view of something?
30:59Well, okay.
31:00What did you do?
31:03You heard and eat.
31:05You forgot to...
31:11To eat food.
31:29That's tonight.
31:40Oh, my God.
31:47Oh, my God.
32:03Myles!
32:05Gabby?
32:07What happened?
32:09I was out drinking and I met this girl.
32:14She must have put something in my drink.
32:15That girl is Eliza.
32:16I think she targeted you because of me.
32:18What?
32:19Come on.
32:20This is going to sound crazy, but I need you to listen to me, Marlo.
32:23Eliza is a grim reaper.
32:24She can kill you with a kiss.
32:27Gabby?
32:32Gabby?
32:52I'm looking for Gabby Lawson.
32:54No.
32:55Yeah, she got the night off.
32:56Right.
32:56That's right.
32:58What's that about Marlo?
32:59He missed his shift.
33:04Eliza.
33:11You're right.
33:33I'm looking for Gabby Lawson.
33:35Come on.
33:42No!
33:43No!
33:45Are you okay? Did she hurt you?
33:46Okay, okay.
33:48I didn't walk up and you weren't there. I didn't know.
33:49I didn't know.
33:50She threatened Milo twice. Listen.
33:52Look at you two.
33:55I 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.
34:18Dead by midnight?
34:26...is punishing you.
34:28Because you disobeyed. Because you let her live.
34:30I'm not losing her.
34:31You can't sacrifice yourself. She has to die.
34:34If you want her, you go through me.
34:38I have no idea what's going on, but I'm not going to watch you kill yourself.
34:41Get off! Get off!
34:42Get her out!
34:44Tobias!
34:44You've only known her a few days.
34:46You really gave up everything.
34:49For her.
34:49Yes!
34:53Yes!
34:54And if you ever really love me, let me do this.
34:56Please, let me save her.
34:58I won't recover.
34:59I won't forgive you.
35:00Please, just let me do that.
35:01Please.
35:06Please.
35:06Please.
35:07Just let me save her.
35:10Alasa, please.
35:23Alasa, please.
35:23Would you stop?
35:26I want to spend my last minutes with him.
35:40You're both crazy.
35:43Do what you want.
35:45I'm not sticking around.
35:47Watch.
35:51Thank you, Alasa.
35:55You better live up to this.
36:09Milo, please go.
36:34What's happening?
36:36It's...
36:37It's almost time.
36:39No, no.
36:40There has to be some other way we can cheat death.
36:42Think, Tobias.
36:43Think.
36:45No.
36:47Our time's up.
36:48This is...
36:48No, no.
36:49Then let me save you.
36:51You saved me.
36:52You already saved me.
36:54My life was hollow before you walked into it.
36:59You don't get to say that and then expect me to let you go.
37:09No.
37:11Tobias.
37:12Yeah.
37:15Remember when I met you?
37:18I lied.
37:20I faked the chest pains.
37:23I...
37:24I figured that.
37:30I'm okay.
37:31I'm okay.
37:32I'm okay.
37:33Don't waste a second your life worrying about me because...
37:36I want to change a thing.
37:39The only thing I wanted was you.
37:46Tobias, wait.
37:50No.
37:52Tobias.
37:54No, no, no.
37:57No.
37:58I live here.
37:59I live here.
38:17No.
38:20No.
38:21What...
38:21Why isn't it working?
38:25It was too late.
38:27No.
38:29I love you.
38:34Tobias. No, Tobias.
38:45No.
39:12I love you.
39:33Love endures everything, even death.
