4:44 Last Day on Earth Page #2

---

What's Skye up to?

She working?

She's working.

You know.

Yeah.

Well, man, I wish you were here

to party with us.

I wish I was with you too,

but just keep doing

what you're doing.

Hey.

Lola, girl.

Having a good day?

Getting your good-byes in?

"At 4:
44 a.m. ES tomorrow morning,

"give or take a few seconds,

"the world

will come to an end.

"It will be the result

"of the ever-weakening

ozone layer

"that has now thinned

and dissipated

"far more rapidly

than even the worst doomsayer

"could have ever imagined.

"So the final explosion:

"Meltdown will come

with fair warning

"but no possible means

of escape.

There will be no survivors. "

"The world will end."

A little, tiny clock

is popping up

in the back of your head.

Why?

'Cause you have a seed

in your mind for that, right?

How did that seed get there?

Who put it there?

You did.

How?

That's karma.

Okay?

That's karma.

What does karma mean?

Karma means doing something,

saying something,

or thinking something

which puts an image

in your mind.

Something happens

under the influence

of kindness,

under the influence

of your teacher's blessing.

Why are we talking about pot?

Why are we talking about clock?

Why are we talking about pen?

Because the world is not coming

from the outside.

The world is coming

from the images

you plant in your mind,

and you can plant whatever

world you want, you see?

You can plant whatever world

you want.

You don't need a body

to die in,

'cause it doesn't exist

down here.

It's an image in your mind.

Plant a different image

in your mind,

and you stop death.

You see?

'Cause this pot's not a pot,

and the pen's not a pen,

and the clock's not a clock,

and the arm is not an arm.

It's all the same, okay?

If it existed out there,

if there was pots,

and if there was clocks,

and if there was pens,

and if they were out there,

then,

then shoot yourself.

My brother killed himself.

He got it, and he shot himself,

you know.

He said, "What's the use?

Why should I waste my time?"

You know?

Kill yourself.

There's no point.

You can't change anything.

If a pot is a pot

and a pen is a pen, it...

you can't change.

Give it up.

What, you're just gonna

get older?

Whoo!

Oh!

We were talking a lot

here in the newsroom

about how to deal

with these final minutes.

I've been in this chair

bringing you the news

literally thousands

of times.

Honestly, I don't want to spend

my final minute on Earth here.

We want the people

who work here

to be with their loved ones.

There was a spirit in New York

after the September 11th

terrorist attacks

that was about caring

and giving.

We have seen

that again today
