Is that the only thing you wanna ask her, Quentin?

Hey.

Okay.

That's f***ed up.

What was that all about?

Um, Jesse's just--

He's pissed because Kris broke up with him.

-I didn't even know they were together.

-Yeah.

I guess I can keep the change?

Yeah. Look...

...I'm sorry about the mess.

-These guys are just--

-I'm used to it.

Do you ever get tired

cf coming here every weekend?

Quentin. You coming or no?

Sorry. Look, this should

take care cf the rest cf it.

-Sec-1 you around.

-Sec-1 you.

Listen, maybe you should

talk to somebody.

I did.

And he thinks all my problems

come from my past.

We began going through my childhood...

...and that's when they started.

When what started?

These nightmares.

Nightmares.

Sc, what, you can't sleep?

I can sleep.

I just don't want to.

Okay, Dean, listen to me.

They're just dreams.

Okay? They're not real.

These dreams...

...they're real.

They're nut.

They're re-- I'm sorry, Kris.

No, its

Kris,

No, no. Its fine.

Im gonna go clean myself off.

Its okay. Its okay.

You're not real.

You're not real. You're not real!

I am now.

Dean, what are you doing?

You're not real.

-Dean, stop it. Dean.

Dean, stop it!

Dean!

Dean!

Tragedy can shake us at our core...

...and it can also unite us

in our shared grief.

Today we are gathered and united...

...for the tragic loss of a young m I with so much life ahead of him.

Let us pray.

Lord, you who can

turn the shadow cf death...

...into the light cf a new day...

...as we gather to commend Dean

into your hands...

...help us to wait upon thee

with penitent hearts...

...and remind us cf he who died

that we might live.

--and the power and the glory

- forever and ever. Amen.

Amen.

-Come on, sweetie. Its over.

Yeah.

Let's go say hi.

-Gwen. Hi, h

-Its been a long time.

-Yeah, yeah.

-- Especially under these circumstances.

- Yeah, not a....

You know, Nance,

if you need someone to talk to....

Im okay.

Thank you.

We're setting up a crisis center

at the school.

-- You know where my office is, right, Nancy?

- Yeah.

We're gonna head cut. Take care.

-Good to see you.

Bye-bye, Quentin.

You knew Dean that far back?

Jesus, that is me.

But I don't know how I'm in that picture.

I didn't meet Dean until high school.

Come on.

-Dean said something right before he died.

-Oh, please don't.

He said, "You're not real."

He kept repeating it over and over again.

Do you have any idea what that means?

No. I don't.

Think about it. What would it mean? Dean was on a load of medication when--

Jesse.

When it happened, it was like

somebody was making him do it...

...but there was nobody there.

Jesse, you have to believe me.

Kris, it was late and you were scared.

Your mind was just playing tricks on you...

-...that's all.

-I believe you.

You do?

I've seen....

-I saw--

-You didn't see anything.

You weren't right there. Kris was.

Shes already f***ed up, I so leave her alone.

You have no idea what Ive seen.I

Lets go home.

-Hi.

-Hi.

Hey, Mom, where are all the photos of me

from when I was younger?

-They're not here.

-Oh, well, who knows?

Theyre probably packed away

over the garage. Why?

Because today at the funeral I, um....

I saw a photo cf Dean and I

when we were, like, 5.

But, you know, it's funny, I don't remember

knowing Dean before high school.

Who can remember being 5 years old?

Hey, why don't you pack those up?

Dinner's almost ready.

Good night, honey.

Remember me?

Kris? You okay?

What is that?

Uh, nothing.

Just, like, a sketch.

Are you okay?

-Yeah, Im okay.

-Yeah?

Are you okay?

Yeah, you know.

You know, like, if you ever need somebody,

if you ever wanna talk to somebody, I--

I'm sure you have like a thousand

other people you could talk to...

...but if you wanna talk to somebody....

Thanks.

Quentin. You're gonna be late to class.

Come on, buddy, let's go.

-My dad.

-I know.

Now, class, it was Pericles

who told the Athenian people...

...they should all gather

into the gates cf the city...

while his naval fleet picked off the Spartans by sea.

Now, it was to be a slow

but sure victory.

The Spartans would never make it over the walls of the acropolis, Pericles said.

But what he didnt take into account is that the plague would eventually strike.

Open your bucks to page 84.

To further complicate matters...

...the Spartans were armed

with a variety cf weapons...

...some cf them even improvised.

And they would not hesitate to slaughter

every Athenian they saw...

...even

children.

Especially the children cf soldiers.

This is where the....

Wake up.

Wake up, wake up, wake up.

You really shouldn't fall asleep in class.

Hi, Kris.

-Who are you?

You look just as beautiful...

...as ever.

You have nothing to worry about.

This won't hurt...

. . . 0 Fl e. . .

...little...

...bit.

Are you okay, Miss Fowles?

What happened?

I'm sorry.

What?

Kris!

Rufus.

Rufus, what are you doing?

Huh? What are you doing cut here?

Come on.

Rufus.

Come on.

Hey.

I have to fly to London

on a red eye tonight.

Okay.

You gonna be okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm gonna be all right. Have a safe flight.

I just worry about you.

-Try and get some sleep.

-Okay.

I'll call you when I land.

I love you.

Love you.

Jesus, Jesse.

-What the hell are you doing here?

-Are you gonna let me in?

Yeah, come in.

All right, I know I've been an a**hole...

...and I've been jealous

and I've been f***ed up.

But Dean was my friend too.

Will you please tell me

what's been going on?

I'm having these dreams.

And I'm scared.

I think Dean was having them too.

Kris, listen, we've all--

I know what you're gonna say.

But now every time I dream...

...I always see this man.

And he's....

He's burned...

...and melted.

And he's always trying to...

-...attack me with these knives--

-Knives on his fingers.

What?

Oh, my God.

We're having the same dream.

-Kris, it's not possible.

-It is possible.

-It's just a dream, all right?

-It's not a dream.

Shh. Shh.

Shh. Shh.

Oh, God.

Im so afraid.

All I wanna do is go to sleep,

but if I do he's gonna kill me like Dean.
