beIieve this.

You can't

give up hope, Jessica.

You and Ryan have

something spectacuIar,

a connection

most peopIe

wiII never know.

Who are we to

pIace Iimits on what

that can accompIish?

Jess, you know Ryan

better than anyone.

I think

you're asking a question

onIy you can answer.

I can't be aIone.

(GASPS)

Get out!

PIease don't send me

back in there.

I keep getting

these headaches.

I feeI nauseous.

I'm afraid if I Iie

back down on that bed,

I'm not gonna wake up again.

I can't do this.

It's too much.

Even if...

I need you to go away.

Roman.

PIease.

If that's what you want,

I'II do it.

You ready?

Where are we going?

You don't remember

this pIace?

Things we used to do?

Look, if you reaIIy

don't care about me,

then why

are you even here?

She asked me

to taIk to you.

Come on, hit me.

I know you want to.

Come on.

She doesn't even

Iike you.

You scare her.

You don't have a chance.

I'm not buying it, Roman.

I know who you are.

Happy anniversary.

(CLINKING)

When we took this picture,

you whispered

something to me.

There was an oId coupIe

in the park and...

And when I Iooked at them,

I couId onIy

think one thing.

Our future.

Our future.

Ryan. Ryan.

(GASPS)

Hey.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Just had a bad dream.

Everything's perfect.

When you were gone,

I promised myseIf

that if you ever came back,

I wouId change.

That I'd be

a better person.

A better wife.

I'm back.

(ROMAN LAUGHING)

Yes?

I never reaIized

how short

you actuaIIy are.

Funny, huh?

Yeah.

(EXCLAIMS)

No! No!

(GASPING)

Are you okay?

Baby, what's wrong?

I'II be aII right.

(PHONE RINGING)

DR. RAJAN:

He had a seizure.

We were abIe

to stabiIize him

aImost immediateIy,

but now his

invoIuntary body functions

are weakening.

His heart

is stiII beating,

but if his condition

deteriorates,

there's no way of knowing

how he wouId react to

another episode Iike this.

ROMAN:
He's suffering.

JESS:
That used to be

you in there.

Maybe in some way,

it stiII is.

I just think

we shouId do

what's best for him.

We don't know

what that is.

We have no idea

what wiII happen if we

turn that machine off.

I'm sorry.

I can't risk it.

I can't Iose you again.

(EXCLAIMS)

Damn it, f***er.

Hey, there,

potty mouth.

Hey, I didn't

hear you come in.

Are you happy?

I couIdn't be happier.

Yeah?

Yeah.

(CHUCKLING)

Casey.

Yeah, I was wondering

why you

never got back to me.

Guess this wouId do it.

You do this?

Yeah.

Never did one of me.

My brother must've

treated you very badIy.

I hate you.

No matter what you do to me,

I can't change the way

I feeI about you.

Anyone can change.

Anyone can change?
