- Fine.
- We miss the old you, man.
I miss the old Craig.
Do you miss the old Craig?
- Ah, yes, there he is.
- He's back. Old Craig is back, man...
- What did you say to him?
What did you say to him?!
- Caroline...
... we are meant to be together.
- Oh, my God.
You are f***ing crazy.
- Well, you know what I find infuriating,
is that you of all people
are bowing to social pressure now!
- Social pressure?
Are you kidding me?!
You think I'm someone I'm not.
I... am... going.
- If you leave, I'll kill him!
I mean, I don't mean that.
I just... but...
But I might kill myself!
I... I don't know, I just, I'm...
I'm really, really confused
right now, Caroline!
- I'm gonna pretend you never said that.
- This is Thurston, so leave a message.
- Thurston, I'm so sorry
about what happened.
If you are at the party,
just stay at the party.
I'm on my way right now.
I... I screwed up.
I know I screwed up.
I just, I... Please, please,
please don't do anything stupid.
I love y...
F***.
- Hey, Thurston!
- What?
- Hey!
Hey.
- Hey, what's up?
- Hey, do you wanna...
do you wanna see rest of my house?
- Is it okay if I smoke in here?
- Yeah. Do you... do you wanna...
So do you wanna see
the rest of my house?
- Uh, yeah, sure.
- Okay.
- Oh.
- Uh...
Um, so this is the--
- Did you do all the decorations?
- This is my bathroom,
and then this is my dad's office.
And this is some other stuff and...
... this is my bedroom.
- Whoa.
You sure... really like unicorns, huh?
- Yes, I love unicorns.
- Cool.
- Thurston, I think you're so hot.
- Wait, uh... This is, uh...
This feels very wrong.
- Totally. Let me get the lights.
- Ugh!
Oh, Barry, you're a p*ssy.
You're a p*ssy, Barry.
Come on, come on, come on, come on!
Oh...
sh*t!
Ah... Ah...
- Lily, come watch TV with me.
Come watch the tube.
- This is wrong. This is wrong.
This is wrong!
This is wrong!
This is all so wrong!
You try to be good, but you can't!
Because it's all wrong! It's all wrong!
It's all so f***ing wrong!
- Hey!
Yeah!
Whoo!!!
- Hello?
- Ca-Caroline? It's me.
I've shot myself.
Bullet skimmed my leg.
- Barry, I can't even hear you.
You're cracking up.
- Yeah, I know I'm cracking up!
I just shot myself, for chrissake!
- Sorry, can't hear you.
- What? No, no, no,
Caroline, no...
Caroline?
- Lily, where are you?
Don't do this to me.
- This is f***ing beautiful.
- Okay, wait. Wait.
We should... we should stop.
- Why?
- Uh... because, uh...
I dunno.
- It... it wasn't my fault.
- I know. I know.
The... the road's bad.
It's hard to see.
- It... it wasn't my fault.
I was raised... to hate...
- Wait. Wait.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I, uh... I really have to go.
- They caught him!
They caught the killer!
- Barry!
They finally caught him.
- Oh. Caught who?
- The killer.
- Oh.
How?
- They think he, like, crashed his car.
What happened to you?
- Oh, nothing.
Nothing.
Do you wanna come in
and have some dinner?
I have... I have so much to share.
- Barry, I...
take you to the hospital.
- Okay.
Um... but will you after?
- You're in shock.
- Just say
you'll have dinner with me after.
- Of course.
That would be a dream.
- Okay.
- You ready?
- Yeah.
- Does it hurt?
- Oh... yeah, it hurts.
Ah...
- What happened?
- Oh, I shot myself.
- You found them like this?
There you stood
on the edge of your feather
Expecting to fly
When the serial killer died that night,
everyone in the hospital cheered
and there was even talk of a parade,
though it never happened.
From then on,
the whole town considered me a hero,
but all I had really done
was crash my car into the right person.
By the summer
It was healing
We had said goodbye
That was the year
that everything happened.
I'm not saying if it was good or bad.
All the years we'd spent with feeling
Ended with a cry
I mean,
you can never really tell
what's good until later anyway,
until you look back
and think about things
and they have time to grow in your mind.
Babe
Ended with a cry
I tried so hard to stand
But sometimes
you make a choice in that moment,
and you know in your heart
it's going to change everything.
So hard to laugh
As I stumbled
And reached for the love
I had found
Knowin'
It was gone
If I never lived without you
Now you know I'd die
- Hi.
- If I never said
I loved you
You need to know he's out of my life.
And I'm sorry...
I screwed everything up.
- Are you kidding me?
You saved me.
People will tell you nothing matters,
the whole world's
about to end soon anyway.
But those people are looking at life
the wrong way.
I mean...
things don't need to last forever
to be perfect.
Live through this
And you won't look back
Live through this
And you won't look back
There's one thing I want to say
So I'll be brave
You know what I wanted
I gave what I gave
I'm not sorry I met you
I'm not sorry
There's nothing to save
Live through this
And you won't look back
Live through this
And you won't look back
