David!
David!
David!
I love you, Joseph. / i
Hey, I can wait out here all day.
Jesus.
Your last book sold 5 million copies.
Surely you could've done better than this.
Glad to see that you're writing again.
Yeah, well there have never been a problem
- So, what is the problem?
- I'm done.
This doesn't look like you're done.
This looks like a bestseller.
That's not even a book. It's personal.
All your writing is personal.
That's why it sells.
so spare me the pretense.
You have a legion of followers that would disagree with you.
What's this?
That's none of your concern.
- It's just a diary.
- An autobiography?
It's a diary!
I'm part of this support group,
and now we write about our pain.
You know, your writing is a lot more
important than you may think.
I can't begin to fathom what you must be going through.
I'm fine.
You've got to get out of this room.
I miss you.
The day that Sarah and David died,/ i
So did my faith in that there was
some sort of higher power./ i
There's no divine beings and a master architect./ i
Surely no deity could be responsible for so much pain, / i
so much fucking misery./ i
God is dead.
Or maybe he was never alive./ I
All my friends had these, careers,
and I just had a job.
It didn't matter. When I met Henry,
everything changed.
I quit my job ... and I was a wife.
Full time.
I was the most important thing in his life.
He needed me and he was the only family I ever had.
And I was good.
No, I was great.
When he died,
I died too.
I never realized the importance of family,
until the one I had was taken away.
But now, I wake up every morning ...
and I know that tomorrow is a new day.
Don't loose those.
High street value and all that.
Yeah.
- You know you're up?
- I don't think that's gonna happen.
- Why not?
- I just don't have very much to say.
You've been coming here for months
and you've not said a thing.
I'm pretty sure you have an encyclopedia
of things to say.
- At least I see you're following the steps.
- Oh yeah.
No it's just ... I don't wanna go in there
and just bore everybody.
My story ends the same as everybody else's,
in Tragedy.
You know for someone so good with words ...
I find it hard to believe you can't find the
right ones to share.
You shouldn't look so surprised.
I read quite a lot you know.
Yeah, sorry.
Hey, um ... seems a bit stupid now, but I read
somewhere that you don't like using computers.
And I saw your tattered notebooks in group, so ...
- I know it's lame.
- Wow, thanks! It's not lame, it's great.
Okay, bye!
Call 911!
Joseph.
Mr. Crone?
Mr. Crone, can you hear me?
- You're one very lucky man.
- Am I?
Yes you are. You are in St. Luke's hospital now.
Mr. Crone, do you remember what happened?
Yeah.
I do not know who your guardian angel is,
but you might consider giving him a raise.
- The other driver?
- He didn't have your luck.
Can I come in?
Sorry, I can leave.
I just didn't know who to call or ....
- There's no one to call.
- Looks like you're gonna need a new watch.
I get to bed every night praying I won't
wake up in the morning.
I pray I walk out of the house and get
struck by lightning.
I pray to a God I know doesn't exist to run me down by car,
and the day it finally happens I walk away
without a scratch.
- It wasn't your time.
- No it is my time, I have no purpose.
You're a famous author, with legions of fans.
Your books inspire millions of people.
- But you have no purpose?
