Get in the car.
Get the f*** out of here!
F***ing whore!
I'm going to kill you!
I'll kick your ass
with my new boots, you f***ing a**hole.
Thank you, baby.
"Eggs and bacon."
You want some eggs and bacon?
Baby?
No more rain, no more pain.
"Even a child with normal feet
was in love with the world...
"...after he had got
a new pair of shoes."
Flannery O'Connor.
And Cheryl Strayed.
The ashes of a body
aren't really like ashes from a fire.
Soft and silky, they're more like...
pale pebbles mixed
with a gritty gray gravel.
I spread most of them around her grave.
But some of the larger chunks...
I put in my mouth...
and I swallowed whole.
Then I moved to Portland...
with crazy Joe.
The first time I smoked heroin...
I laughed like a child...
and twirled around
in my mother's jewelry box.
Then we snorted it.
But we were never going to shoot it.
Never.
The first time I shot up, I begged.
More, more, more!
How do you like it, how do you like it?
The day after my birthday...
a man asked me for money.
That's what I want
A week after that...
somebody finally
wished me happy birthday.
Heroin? Of all the stupid,
selfish things!
Why are you doing this to yourself?
Don't you f***ing touch me!
Don't play this game!
Why did you even come?
I didn't ask you to!
You just want to be the hero!
Yeah, maybe!
Why did you come here?
Because!
Just because.
F*** it.
Where is this f***ing tank?
No.
No!
Sh*t.
Don't f***ing die here.
Thirty minutes.
F***ing iodine pills.
You got any water?
I'd give you some of mine,
but it's not ready.
It takes about half an hour...
with an iodine pill.
But you have to filter it first.
We don't have a filter.
You can use mine.
Do you have a bottle?
Got an empty beer can.
Okay.
What are you doing out here?
Hiking the PCT.
So how can we kill the time?
I can think of some ways.
She's got a real nice figure,
doesn't she?
I have to get going.
Sit down.
We're just messing with your head.
We need to get going, too.
Thank you much.
Yeah.
Thought you were heading out.
I changed my mind.
Tried to trick us?
No, I changed my mind.
Changed your clothes, too.
I like your pants.
They look good on you.
Show off your hips and legs
Please don't say that.
Can't a guy give a girl
a compliment anymore?
Thank you.
What the hell are you doing?
I thought you were lost.
Get your ass over here, let's go!
Here's to a young girl
alone in the woods.
Hello, Oregon cow.
Look out of any window
Any morning, any evening
Any day
Maybe the sun is shining
Birds are winging
Rain is falling from a heavy sky
What do you want me to do
To do for you to see you through...
Oh, you think?
Oh, my.
Do you mind if I say something?
Sure.
The nicest lipstick in the world
can't help a girl
if she doesn't take care
of her personal hygiene.
I've every intention
of taking care of that.
a priority, sweetie.
Hey.
Hey.
I, uh... I work at a music club
down the street.
We're honoring Jerry Garcia tonight.
- You should come along.
- Oh. Cool.
What's your name?
Cheryl.
Don't worry, I don't bite.
I don't mind biting.
Oh, my God.
I can't believe I just said that.
I'm so sorry. I've been
on my own for a little while.
Not that I'm "on my own." I've been
in a lot of relationships before.
I've just been hiking
on my own for a while.
Look, I'm gonna put your name
on the guest list.
Hope to see you later.
Hi, honey.
Here is your Ashland box.
Enjoy some well-deserved rest,
but don't overdo it, okay?
Still a lot to hike, no?
I had said you can quit anytime.
But I take it back.
Call me when you get to the finish line.
Love and kisses, Aimee.
As it were your own
It's a hand-me-down
The thoughts are broken
Perhaps they're better
Left unsung
I don't know
I don't really care
Do I know you?
Thanks.
Let there be song
To fill the air
Ripple in still water
When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
Dear Paul,
I woke up this morning
and wrote your name in the sand.
I've done that on every beach
I've been on ever since I met you.
But I'm not going to do it again.
I'm ready to move on.
Baby, baby, be my friend
I have only another
300 miles left to walk.
I'm desperate for it to be over.
But I'm terrified, too.
When I'm done...
I'll only have two dimes to my name.
But I'll have to start living.
And I'm nowhere near ready.
Please! Sir, wait!
I just closed.
I think you have a package
for me in there?
Could it wait until tomorrow?
It has fresh clothes and food,
and batteries I need.
Okay.
If you'll have a drink with me later.
Sure.
There you go, good-looking.
Thanks.
- You like punch?
- Hmm?
I make a good one. I throw
every liquor I can find into a bucket
and I pour a couple of cans
of juice on top.
Sounds good.
- Cheryl?
- Yeah.
- Oh, my God.
- We're closed, guys.
- "If your nerve deny you...
- "...go above your nerve."
- Emily Dickinson.
- Yes.
"I have promises to keep
and miles to go before I sleep."
Walt Whitman?
No, that was Robert Frost.
The Whitman was,
"Be curious, not judgmental."
Yes.
"God is a ruthless b*tch."
You left the name off.
- That one was me.
- You're our hero.
Okay, fellas, I'm shutting up now.
We just wanted to pick up our post?
No. I'm sorry. I already reopened
for the young lady here.
And I'm not gonna reopen again.
But you wouldn't really have to reopen
because you haven't closed yet.
And their packages are right there.
It's such a miserable night.
Whatever's in them is gonna make
the night just that much better.
Do you mind?
That your horse?
If you want to take her out
in the morning, she could do with it.
Hey, so the campsite,
is it left? Left, right?
Yeah.
Good night! I'll see you in the morning.
Oh.
Number one and number two.
Just a little. Just a little.
Wonderful!
So, Cheryl, how do you deal
with being on your own all the time?
I mean, we're with each other
and we're still sick of ourselves.
Mmm-hmm.
No. I've been to most
of the places in my head that
I didn't want to go to,
but I feel like there's
one or two that,
for whatever reason, I just...
I hear you.
There's a few girlfriends
that I'm in no hurry to think about again.
I think I know exactly
who you're talking about. Right?
I don't want to talk
about this right now.
Not again! Good night!
Just please try to do the kindest thing.
We don't have to do this.
She's been really sick for a long time.
There has to be another way.
We don't have the money to do it right.
We can't go to a vet.
Leif, she's just going
to die slowly and painfully.
Just please do the kindest thing.
Hey, brother, it's me.
Look, I know we don't have
a home to go back to, but...
I want you to know
I'm pulling you along with me.
It's been really hard, but
do me a favor, okay?
Walk a little?
I love you.
Bye.
Hey, good-looking.
