4:44 Last Day on Earth Page #2
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.
He got it, and he shot himself,
you know.
He said, "What's the use?
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
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
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
under these unimaginably
tragic circumstances.
Al Gore was right.
By the time we realized
what we'd done,
we had already ruined
the planet.
And today it doesn't
matter where you live
or how much money you have.
We are all about
to face the same fate
at the same moment.
My family is waiting
for me now.
There's nothing more for us
to say here
but to repeat
what we have told you:
We don't have much time left.
You don't need me to sit here
and tell you how tragic
this is,
so this is the end
of our commentary.
We are going to fill the screen
with live camera views
from all over the city,
and we will leave those
pictures up until the end.
How can you not
think about the end?
How do you not plan
for the future?
How do these guys
not think about
what the hell is gonna
happen next?
You know, whether you're...
whether you're
cutting down a tree
or the atomic bomb...
f*** that.
I'm sick of it.
Where are the experts?
Where are the f***ing experts?
These guys,
they're just talking, talking,
don't even have
the f***ing slightest clue.
Never mind doubt.
I mean, we don't know
what the f*** is going on.
We're all gonna die, guys!
We're already dead!
Damn.
He was thinking straight.
Why let someone dictate
when you're gonna die?
F***ing motherfuckers.
Hey, don't put that coat on him!
Leave that man alone!
If you want to help him,
light a candle.
No!
Is that my f***in' landlord?
Hey!
Hey, Wally!
How's that 2.5% a year
feel now, huh?
No, no, I'm not saying him.
F*** you!
F*** you!
It's not his fault.
It's not anybody's fault.
We're all in the same boat.
We're all doomed.
I don't want to leave you.
These guys chopped down
every f***ing tree
on the island
to make a statue.
F***.
And they don't have anything
to build a boat to get the fish.
At least they were doing...
worshipping God...
the f***ing...
I shouldn't be saying that.
F*** that book!
What is wrong with you people?
Leave that man alone!
What is wrong with you?
Baby.
Come on.
Come on.
What are we waiting for?
I'm waiting for you
to come down.
Come on.
What are we waiting for?
A couple hours' difference?
Get down, Cisco.
Come on.
Get down.
Get down.
Thump!
Stop it.
Stop!
Hey.
What?
Come on.
It's gonna be okay.
You're so sweet.
It's gonna be okay.
I don't know
what to do.
Just be with me.
I know.
I am.
You want to fly?
Yes.
- Yes.
- Yes?
You'd like that?
Shoes off!
Now, that I can do.
Grab my wrists.
Ah-ya!
Must have been the gaff tape.
What happened to your legs?
- Okay.
- Spaghetti legs.
Okay.
Okay.
Fly on home,
fly on home.
Where you goin', girl?
She be a pink butterfly.
Oh, yeah.
Where you goin', girl?
Where you goin'?
Where are we going?
Ah-ya-ya!
Isn't it beautiful up here?
Too beautiful.
I pissed my pants.
Your turn.
Who's that?
Yeah?
Yeah?
Delivery.
Yeah, come on up.
Yeah, I was wrong.
You're kidding me.
No.
Come on.
You hungry?
Yeah.
Not again!
Hi.
Come on in.
Thank you very much.
What's your name?
You've been here, like,
a thousand times,
but I don't even know
your name.
Chung.
How are you doing?
You know what's going on,
or don't you give a sh*t?
Hey, kid.
Hey, you want some food?
Oh, I doubt it, huh?
You've probably had
plenty of this stuff.
Oh.
Keep the change.
Take it.
Is there anything
I can do for you?
Can I get you anything?
Skypey.
Skypey.
Skypey.
Oh, yeah, Skype.
Yeah, I can do that for you.
I just got to get my computer.
Okay.
Okay, you just go ahead.
It's just...
You know how to do it, right?
Just...
yeah, there you go.
Skye.
Come and get it.
Is it ready?
Well, yeah.
That's Vietnam.
That's Vietnam he's calling.
Chung?
Thank you.
I'm so glad I've known you.
Chung.
Thank you.
almost like
a creator of the world
or the controller of the world.
Through technology,
through science,
we can do anything, everything.
We do not run nature.
something above nature.
I think that's wrong.
After all, we are part
of the nature.
Uh, so through that way,
it become clear, you see,
we have the responsibility
to take care
of the environment,
of the nature,
because ultimately,
we are part of the nature.
So the nature balance
dramatically change,
we will suffer,
the entire humanity.
Then, this will,
what... what were instinct
will disappear.
So that's either one,
one force.
Then another, I think,
I think,
every human... requirement
or meaningful life,
we need to seek internal,
sort of inner
spiritual development.
Now, here, when I say
it's a spiritual... spirituality,
not necessarily
religious faith.
But even without
religious faith,
still there are such...
a sense of caring
one another,
sense of sharing one another.
There's a sense of community.
These are the basic
human good qualities.
These are
our fabled spirituality.
Without that,
you can't be happy person.
One says that money
is the source of all evil.
Is that true?
Yes.
- No.
- Yes.
Of course, if we, uh,
Eh.
Then all our energy
or mind, this is...
concentrate on money.
And then, uh, the greed,
that kind of thing,
extreme greed...
Then in order
to get more money,
then no hesitation to adopt
various different method.
Scandals or corruptions
or exploitation,
forcing these things.
Then, of course, money,
it then becomes evil.
But for sustain, for life,
without money, you can't.
You're a medical man.
What do you think happens
after bodily death?
After bodily death,
then they all get wings,
and they all start
flying up toward heaven.
Yeah?
And do you think
you'll be a good flyer?
I think I'll fly up there
eventually.
Yeah?
And then once you gets there,
what happens?
