and said, "'I'm hungry.|Got any fruit?'"

Like most catatonics,

he probably hears|every word we say...

but refuses|or is unable to respond.

Nevertheless,|I keep him up to date.

Let's see.|I told you about Howie.

He got that job|at the public library.

And Ernie, he's determined|to be a crisis counselor.

The only one we're, uh,|really concerned about is Bess.

You know, we've checked|halfway houses, shelters,

churches, bus stops.

Nothing.

Uh, we don't understand.|It's like...

people don't just disappear.

July 27th ?

You wouldn't happen to know|anything about that, would you?

Robert?

No.

Well, maybe|it'll come to you.

Whenever you're ready,|I'll be waiting.

I want to tell you|something, Mark,

something you|do not yet know,

but we K-PAXians have been|around long enough|to have discovered.

The universe will expand,

then it will collapse|back on itself,

and then it will|expand again.

It will repeat|this process forever.

What you don't know is that|when the universe expands again,

everything will be|as it is now.

What ever mistakes you make|this time around, you will|live through on your next pass.

Every mistake you make...

you will live through...

again and again, forever.

So my advice to you is to|get it right this time around,

because this time...

is all you have.

You're lookin' great,|Michael.|Think so?

Thanks.|How you doin'?

Good. How was your--|How was your trip?

Was it--|Was it good?
