I knew Jonny was watching.

I thought I'd make him mad.

I'm so sorry, Larry.

I'm sorry Jonny didn't protect you.

It was my fault.

But, you can't just leave, Juliet.

I want this baby, Larry.

Babies, they're...

...they're perfect.

It's like running hands

over a jigsaw puzzle.

How did you survive the fire?

I don't know.

Juliet...

Mmhmm.

I have this God-shaped

hole in my heart.

And I think you have one too.

Larry, I have to go.

Wait...

Jed told me once if a Dogrib woman

cuts her hair,

she has to burn it.

If not, when she dies, she has to go back

all through her life

and pick up every single hair

she'd ever left behind.

When Juliet dies,

she'd have to come back,

and remember what happened between us,

before flying to heaven.

I don't know if I'll ever see

Juliet or Jonny again...

And I cry for them both.

I cry knowing that

I don't belong to anyone.

But I smile too.

Knowing my life is

still unwrapped.
