Truman Page #2

---

He'll be fine, I promise.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

- Bye.

- Thank you. Bye.

Warn me ahead of time

before the next scene like that.

I'm going to tell you

something important.

Okay.

The only things that matter

in life are relationships.

Love.

Family, you and me,

Truman and me...

I need some breakfast

before going on with the day.

Who would have thought

we'd be friends

for so many years?

I wouldn't have, really.

You know the main thing

I've learned from you?

What you've taught me

all these years unknowingly?

Why don't we keep walking?

Because I'm saying

something important,

can't you wait

one more minute?

Why are you here?

I want to have breakfast,

so that I'm ready.

What's that important thing

you've learned from me? Let's see.

You never expect

anything in return.

You never want a payback.

You're generous, unlike me.

Thanks.

- And me?

- What?

What have you

learned from me?

From you?

Nothing, absolutely nothing.

Maybe illegal things...

To be brave.

You've always faced

everything squarely.

Like now.

You see, this alone made the trip

from the North Pole worth it already.

Sorry I'm late, Julin.

Don't worry, doctor.

I know you'd rather see my cousin,

she's cuter than my friend here,

but he's come for a few days

and I just can't shake him off.

He came from Canada.

- Hello.

- Hello.

To say goodbye.

Well...

As I told you, we should start

another round of chemotherapy.

We're going to change

the medicine,

to try to have a greater

effect on the tumors.

As I told you the last time we met,

I'll schedule you for a CAT scan,

to see how far those new

tumors on the liver have gone.

Could you come in tomorrow or

the day after for some tests?

And I'll schedule the

CAT scan for Friday?

No.

I've come to tell you

I'm not coming back.

Julin, when we talked about

the test results the other day,

I gave you the

impression that...

We've done everything we could,

haven't we, doctor?

Yes.

We've fought hard these

past few months, right?

I don't want to spend whatever

I have left in and out of the hospital.

I'll miss the nurses very much,

that's for sure, but...

I'm done.

I've been fighting this

lung cancer for a year,

and when I was taking

some time off,

this son of a b*tch goes on

excursion all over my body.

What good will it do

starting chemo again?

I mean,

if I start the treatment again,

will I be cured?

I know people don't usually

ask these things, but I do.

Will I be cured?

No.

I don't think so.

I'm going to die anyway,

no matter what I do, right?

Yes.

Why should I go on with it?

To gain some time, Julin.

Of course, of course.
