00:12Class, settle down. I have some difficult news.
00:19Silas Brennan died by suicide yesterday evening.
00:26Come again?
00:28You heard me correctly, Mia.
00:32Who's Silas Brennan?
00:34A very important member of this student body.
00:39Mr. Rosedale, I suggest you never speak that way again.
00:44I'd seen the teachers whispering this morning.
00:47I thought it was nothing. A leaked pipe, maybe.
00:52But teachers don't cry over pipes.
00:54Counselors will be available all week.
00:58Please, don't bottle up your feelings.
01:02Remember Silas with kindness.
01:14Mom?
01:16What are you doing home?
01:18I heard about what happened. I thought you might want to talk.
01:21Thanks, but no thanks.
01:23Reese, it's not safe to bottle this up. I don't want you to...
01:29I'm not going to kill myself if that's what you're asking.
01:33Then at least see a counselor at school.
01:37Fine.
01:42And Mom, I'm going to the funeral on Thursday.
01:46I figured you would.
01:53A lot can happen in a few minutes.
01:56Like throwing up.
01:59Wes, I'll call you back.
02:01Reese is leaving.
02:08Are you sure you want to go tonight?
02:10Yes.
02:12Do you want me to come?
02:13No, Dad. I'm fine going alone.
02:22Were you one of Silas's classmates?
02:25Yeah, yes.
02:26We had English together freshman year.
02:29I'm Diana, Silas's mother.
02:32Reese Caldwell.
02:34Caldwell?
02:35Richard Caldwell's daughter?
02:37Mm-hmm.
02:40I didn't know there'd be a celebrity here.
02:42Just... a friend.
03:01Did you know my brother, too?
03:05Yeah.
03:07He was pretty cool, huh?
03:10Definitely.
03:12Ivy, Mommy says sit down.
03:14Chill out.
03:23It's a bit late for a young girl like yourself to be out, isn't it?
03:32I don't know who you are,
03:34but I'm not looking for trouble.
03:36Oh, I know you're not.
03:38Reese...
03:39Caldwell.
03:41How do you know my name?
03:43I know everything.
03:46Comes with the job.
03:52Stay away from me!
03:54Or you'll what?
03:56Scream?
03:56I'm known by many names.
03:58I'm known by many names.
03:58The Devil.
03:59The Grim Reaper.
04:01Hades.
04:02Azrael.
04:03But for simplicity, call me Death.
04:06You're insane.
04:08Most run by now.
04:10You're unusual, Reese Caldwell.
04:12Let's chat.
04:17You're going to get me killed!
04:19I know when you'll die.
04:21It's not tonight.
04:24I want you to go back in time and save Silas Brennan.
04:28Why me?
04:30You seemed right for the job.
04:33Why 27 days?
04:35Because it took Silas Brennan 27 days to decide how to kill himself.
04:42And if I fail?
04:44You really don't want the answer to that.
04:47Trust me.
04:54I'll do it.
05:01Hey!
05:02You need to wake up!
05:06I didn't know I fell asleep.
05:09Whatever.
05:09We're closing.
05:10You need to leave.
05:11What are you doing here?
05:14I work here.
05:16What time is it?
05:17Quarter past 11.
05:19Oh shit, my parents!
05:21Jesus!
05:21Reese!
05:22Would you shut up?
05:24You know who I am?
05:26Reese Caldwell.
05:28Junior at JFK.
05:30Daughter of the hotshot lawyer.
05:31We had English freshman year.

14:32What about you?
14:36Good night, Reese.
14:4119 days.
14:45Look at the freak! Where's your daddy, Brennan? Oh wait, he doesn't want you.
14:50Kate!
14:53Get off him!
14:55Stay out of this, Caldwell.
14:57Touch him again and I'll have my dad sue your family into the ground.
15:07I didn't need your help.
15:10You're welcome.
15:11I'm serious, Reese. Stay out of it.
15:14Why? So you can take it alone?
15:17Yes! That's exactly what I want!
15:21Why won't you let anyone in?
15:23Because everyone leaves!
15:28That was the most honest thing he's ever said to me.
15:43How did you find me?
15:45Your mom.
15:47Of course.
15:53I'm sorry.
15:57For what?
15:58For pushing.
15:59For not understanding.
16:01My dad left when I was 12.
16:04The girls were two.
16:06Mom worked three jobs.
16:07I started working at 14.
16:09Some days I wonder why I bother.
16:12Silas.
16:13Don't do the pity thing.
16:15I wasn't going to.
16:16I was going to say,
16:18you bother because your sisters love you.
16:20Your mom needs you.
16:22I...
16:23You what?
16:24I need you too.
16:26As my friend.
16:28You barely know me.
16:29I know enough.
16:34Don't make me madder to you, Reese.
16:37I'll just disappoint you.
16:39Too late.
16:40Too late.
16:53Snowball fight.
16:55Oh, it's on.
17:02This is what I'm fighting for.
17:07Wake up, Caldwell.
17:09Oh, you did not.
17:19Puppy pile.
17:34Well, I'll be.
17:36What's your favorite color, Reese?
17:39You're asking me a question?
17:41Friends know things.
17:42Yellow.
17:43Like sunshine.
17:45That fits.
17:46Kids in the Chi.
17:47Then we turn to Mother'sà.
17:49Let's do it.
17:51Let's do it.
17:52Let's do it.
18:05All right.
18:07Let's do it.
18:07I don't know.
18:37What happened?
18:41Mom got laid off today.
18:47I don't know what we're gonna do.
18:50Rents do.
18:51The girls need everything.
18:53I can pick up more shifts, but...
18:56Hey, hey.
18:57Look at me.
19:02You're not alone.
19:11I'm so tired, Reese.
19:14I've got you.
19:16I've got you.
19:21I won't lose him. I won't.
19:28Deanna, I want to host a fundraiser.
19:32A what?
19:33For Mama Rosa.
19:34My dad knows everyone.
19:36We can pack this place, save it, help with rent.
19:39Reese, that's too much.
19:42Please, let me do this.
19:47Why are you so good to us?
19:49Because you are good.
19:50The world should know.
20:00Dad, I need a favor.
20:03What kind of favor?
20:04The kind only you can pull off.
20:09A benefit night for the Brennan family.
20:13Yes.
20:14Reese,
20:16why does this matter so much?
20:20Because some people deserve a second chance.
20:24And nobody's giving him one.
20:27I'll make some calls.
20:32Fourteen days.
20:37What's wrong with you?
20:39Nothing.
20:40You look like you're about to explode.
20:42I have a surprise.
20:44I hate surprises.
20:46You'll love this one.
20:57Reese, what is this?
21:00A fundraiser.
21:02For your family.
21:04My dad's bringing every rich client he has.
21:07Diana will have enough for rent for a year.
21:11I don't want your charity.
21:13It's not charity.
21:15It's friends helping friends.
21:16It is charity.
21:18It's pity.
21:19Silas?
21:20I told you not to make me matter to you.
21:31Trouble in paradise?
21:33Not now, Rochelle.
21:38Silas!
21:41Stop being a stubborn jerk!
21:49You don't get it, do you?
21:51My family doesn't use swooping in like some rich savior.
21:55I'm not trying to save you.
21:58Yes, you are.
22:01Ever since you started sitting at my table, you've been looking at me like I'm broken.
22:05Maybe because you are.
22:07I'm sorry.
22:08I didn't mean that.
22:10Yes, you did.
22:13Silas, listen to me.
22:15The fundraiser isn't pity.
22:18Your mom said yes.
22:20Your sisters need this.
22:22You don't get to decide for them out of pride.
22:29Please, just come Saturday.
22:32That's all I ask.
22:34Fine.
22:36But I'm not wearing a suit.
22:39Deal.
23:02You wore a suit.
23:04Mom made me.
23:06You look.
23:09Wow.
23:11You too.
23:13Tonight we celebrate the Brennan family.
23:16A family that has weathered storms with grace.
23:19Reese, my daughter Reese taught me something this month.
23:25That sometimes the most important thing we can do is simply show up for each other.
23:36I don't dance.
23:38Neither do I.
23:39Let's not dance together.
23:50Thank you, Reese.
23:52For what?
23:53For not giving up.
24:01Silas!
24:02Lily took my cake!
24:04Duty calls.
24:06Yes.
24:07Yes.
24:08Yes.
24:09Yes.
24:14You changed our lives, Reese.
24:24What's wrong?
24:26Nothing.
24:27Liar.
24:30I had a panic attack last night.
24:33What?
24:34I don't know why.
24:35The benefit went well.
24:36Mom's happy.
24:37Everything's fine.
24:37But I woke up at 3 a.m. and couldn't breathe.
24:40Silas, have you ever talked to anyone?
24:45Like a doctor?
24:47I can't afford that.
24:49I can.
24:51Reese.
24:51Listen.
24:52There's a free clinic three blocks from here.
24:54I researched it.
24:55They have counselors.
24:56Please, just go once.
24:57For me.
24:58Why do you care so much?
25:01Because you matter.
25:03Okay.
25:04I'll go.
25:05Eleven days.
25:11This is stupid.
25:14It's not.
25:16I'm fine.
25:18Then you can tell them that and leave.
25:22Silas Brennan?
25:25Will you be here when I get out?
25:27I'll be here.
25:43How was it?
25:48Hard.
25:50She thinks I have depression.
25:52She wants me to come back next week.
25:55Will you?
25:58Yeah.
26:02Reese?
26:04Yeah.
26:05I told her about you.
26:08What did you say?
26:09I said, you're the reason I'm here.
26:14I'll always be here.
26:18I used to come here when things got bad.
26:21To think.
26:23Just to think?
26:27Sometimes more than that.
26:32I just thought about it return.
26:36Silas.
26:36Promise me those thoughts ever come back.
26:38You call me.
26:39Day or night.
26:39You call me.
26:41Reese.
26:43Promise me.
26:45I never did anything.
26:50Why did you find me, Reese?
26:53Out of everyone.
26:54Why me?
26:55Maybe I was supposed to.
27:07Don't cry.
27:08I'm happy.
27:10Nine days.
27:11And I'm in love with him.
27:14Silas, can I tell you something insane?
27:17How insane?
27:19Like, you'll think I'm crazy insane.
27:22Try me.
27:25Never mind.
27:27Reese.
27:29It's nothing.
27:30Just, I'm glad I met you.
27:33I'm glad too.
27:39Mortis.
27:40I know you're listening.
27:42What happens after day 27?
27:43Does he stay safe or do I just disappear?
27:50Look who finally remembered me.
27:52What happens to me?
27:54That depends on you.
27:56Tell me!
27:57If you save him, time corrects itself.
27:59You'll keep this life.
28:00Both of you.
28:02And if I fail?
28:04Then 27 days from now, when he dies, you do too.
28:10Good night, Reese Caldwell.
28:24You're staring.
28:26I like staring at you.
28:31Weirdo.
28:35I started medication.
28:37The counselor wrote a prescription.
28:39That's amazing, Silas.
28:41I feel lighter.
28:44A little.
28:50I want to take you somewhere tomorrow.
28:53Where?
28:55It's a surprise.
28:57I hate surprises.
28:58Silas, now you know how I felt.
29:06Get a room!
29:20Silas has a girlfriend!
29:24I hate all of you.
29:30Seven days, please.
29:32Please let this work.
29:39Open.
29:48Silas, I know it's not fancy.
29:51I worked extra shifts to...
29:55It's perfect.
30:06Reese, I need to tell you something.
30:12A month ago, I was in a really dark place.
30:15I was making plans.
30:17Bad plans.
30:18I had a date in mind.
30:21And then you sat down at my lunch table.
30:24And you wouldn't leave.
30:27And you made me laugh.
30:29And I started thinking maybe...
30:33Maybe I could wait one more day.
30:36And then another.
30:37And another.
30:39You saved my life, Reese.
30:41I don't think you know that.
30:44But you did.
30:46Silas.
30:49I did it, didn't I, Mortis?
31:04I did it.
31:08Silas.
31:09Silas, wake up.
31:10What?
31:11Your father.
31:12He called.
31:13He wants to see you.
31:16No.
31:17He says he's sorry.
31:19He wants to make amends.
31:21I said no.
31:24No.
31:35Silas, what happened?
31:38Not now.
31:40Talk to me.
31:42Reese, I said not now.
31:45Now.
31:54Silas, whatever it is, please, don't shut me out.
31:58My father wants to come back.
32:00Pretend nothing happened.
32:03After eight years.
32:04Oh, Silas.
32:06Everyone leaves and comes back when it's convenient.
32:10Everyone.
32:13I'm not going anywhere.
32:15Promise?
32:17I promise.
32:27I can't find him.
32:29He didn't come home from school.
32:35When did you last two hours ago?
32:39He's not answering his phone.
32:42I know where he might be.
32:44I know where he might be.
32:55Silas!
32:59Silas, please.
33:03I told you everyone leaves.
33:06I'm right here.
33:10For now
33:11Silas, step back from the railing
33:14I just wanted to stop
33:15The noise, the hurting
33:20I'm so tired, Reese
33:22I know, I know you are
33:25But please, step back
33:28For your sisters, for your mom, for me
33:31You promised, you promised you'd call me
33:37I didn't want to ruin this for you
33:38Silas Brennan
33:41You are no this for me
33:42There is no without you
33:45Take my hand
33:56I've got you
33:58I've got you
34:03I'm sorry
34:04Don't apologize
34:07I almost
34:08But you didn't
34:15What happens now?
34:17Now you get help
34:18Real help
34:19The kind I can't give you alone
34:27Will you come every day?
34:30Try and stop me
34:43You can't be here
34:45And yet here I am
34:47I saved him
34:49He's getting help
34:50It's done
34:53Is it?
34:56What does that mean?
34:59It means, Reese Caldwell
35:01That the original date hasn't passed yet
35:03Three days remain
35:05He's in a hospital
35:07He's safe
35:21Don't go away again, Silas
35:24I'm not going anywhere
35:34What?
35:36Just looking
35:37Weirdo
35:44Promise me something
35:46Anything
35:47Promise you'll keep going
35:49Even when it's hard
35:52Even when I'm not here
35:53Why wouldn't you be here?
35:55Just
35:57Promise
35:59Reese, what's going on?
36:01You've been weird all day
36:05I love you
36:07More than anything
36:10I love you too
36:16Tomorrow's the day, isn't it?
36:18The day he was supposed to die
36:20Yes
36:23And what happens to me?
36:25If he survives until midnight
36:26You both live
36:28The timeline re-reads itself
36:29He'll never know what you did
36:31He'll only know he chose to live
36:35And if he doesn't make it?
36:38Then I take you both
36:44I won't let him die
36:46I hope so
36:47Churzen and Reese Caldwell
36:49What are you doing here so early?
36:52I missed you
37:02Reese, you're hovering
37:04Sorry
37:06I'll stop
37:10He looks better
37:11Really better
37:13Yeah
37:14He does
37:16Whatever you did for him, Reese
37:18Thank you
37:21Why are we here?
37:23I want to take this place back
37:25Make a new memory here
37:30Last week, this place was where I almost ended everything
37:38S-Sylas?
37:40Don't freak out
37:41It's not a ring
37:43Yellow, like sunshine
37:45Like you
37:48Hey, hey
37:50Why are you crying?
37:51Because I love you so much it hurts
37:54Reese Caldwell
37:55I'm here because of you
37:57I plan to be here for a long, long time
37:59Okay?
38:00Okay
38:23Well, Reese Caldwell
38:25The hour arrives
38:26Is he okay?
38:30See for yourself
38:37You did it
38:40He's safe?
38:41Really safe?
38:43The timeline is re-riddled
38:45And if Silas Brennan lives
38:47He'll never know about me
38:49About the 27 days
38:51He'll only remember a girl who showed up at his lunch table and refused to leave
38:57Will he still love me?
38:59He always would have, Reese
39:00You just gave him the time to figure it out
39:02Why me, Mortis?
39:04Why did you choose me?
39:07Because you cried at his funeral
39:08Because you sat with his mother
39:10Because you saw a stranger
39:11And grieved him like a friend
39:15That kind of heart is rare
39:17Goodbye, Reese Caldwell
39:19Live well
39:28Morning, sunshine
39:30Morning
39:34Just happy to be here
39:37Weirdo
39:39Hey, Silas
39:41Yeah?
39:43Thanks for being here
39:44Where else would I be?
39:4927 days ago
39:50A stranger gave me an impossible mission
39:53Today
39:54I have everything
39:55A boy who lives
39:57A family that smiles
39:58A life that begins
40:00Sometimes saving someone doesn't look like saving
40:03Sometimes it just looks like staying
40:06Like sitting down at their lunch table
40:09And refusing to leave
40:10I have to leave
40:10I have to leave
