Step up
Take your masks
But it wasn't just that he was a great swimmer
it was simply that he was a greater swimmer
than anyone i ever knew was good--whatever they were good at
Go! Go! Go!
Matt Travis was a legend:10,15,20
and he hated the attention
Hey!Come on
let's go
But the only thing he hated more than the attention...
was swimming
Matt Travis hated to swim more than anyone i knew hated to do--whatever they hated to do.
And when someone hates
something that much...
it doesn't matter
how good they are at it.
But you can't expect the other people to understand that
Tim, can you go and wake up your brother ?

And that's the problem,

She doesn't talk about me when you go over there, does she?
Do you really think I'd let her?
You wouldn't tell me
anyway, would you?
No.
He would been have a

praying to God
Now that the most important moments in their lives are lost and we can never retrieve them because they have been

Unsuccessfully.
You have to cut up and down...

Why?
Em..'Cos there is nothing here that I even remotely care about
I got nothing to fight for
And if I...if I don't want to live here why should I have to?
I don't care how much better of I am than everyone outside

I can't think straight
Try to think about things never changed
Like, look at the stars.
Same stars,as last week,last year

They'll know those same stars.
Let's get out of here.
Ohh! Ow!
Hey,what time is it anyway?

New British Office,Ben Travis
Please leave a message.
Frankly Client,
How can I transfer your call?
yes,er,I'd like to speak to Ben Travis
This is his wife
I keep getting his voice mail
One moment, please.
Sandy,Bob
Ben's not here.
He's still on leave
Leave?
Sandy,it was...it was clear to us that Ben wasn't that happy
being cooked up in the office,so...
So the company gave him a
three-month leave of absence.
But if he's not here, he must be--
I'm sorry,I didn't apply anything,I just...
what I mean,What if...
he's not here, where does he go all day?
I don't know what to say.
I love you.
You gotta be kidding me.
You don't look so good.
Do you think it's my fault that he killed himself?
No.
Do you think it was Dad's?
Maybe
I think he does too.
Have you ever considered it?
doesn't everyone?
Sometimes I think you're the only one stopping me
You shouldn't be saying this to me.
I never had this or thousands other
conversations like this with your brother.
We never told each other the truth.
Sometimes I feel like I don't fit into this family.
You're too much like me
People like us,
we don't fit in everywhere.
If there's anything you want from your brother's room,
take it out tonight.
Why?
Because it'll be gone tomorrow.
Sandy, I'm coming over.
Shit.
Our sons have taken their brothers to war
Did you know that?
Oh,Jesus fucking Christ,I'm not the one should be apologizing,Sandy
You fucked my husband,and now you're the one that won't speak to
me,what kind of black words logic tells you that's valid?
It's not about that
OK,I'm sorry I told Ben,I thought he has the right to know
You don't know,what kind of problem it cost
Sandy, it didn't even phase him.
Your problem went a lot deeper with my big mouth
Marge,show me my life,the way it should work
Show me the life I would have had
Without your big mouth
Show me the life I deserved.
I can't.
You know I have never touched you
Fuck off.
That one's for your mom.
Teach him a lesson, huh?
I will fucking
cut your face off!
Whoa. Whoa
. Come on.
I can't go to community service today.
Don't mention that
Oh,it's your last day
I'm sure I'm gonna miss you
what happened to your nose?
It's war injury I told you
I don't like to talk about it
No I will never get tired of that one
I get very tired of that one.
Sandy!
Sandy!
Mom!
What am I doing here?
Did you do this to me?
No.
Sweety,leave it,leave it
Sandy.
When was the last time you check that
Something is wrong with your body.
I know.
Tim. Tim!
What?
Did you see this note?
No
Com'on,we got to go,we've got to go,Timmy
What happened to your face?
It's nothing,what's happening?
Come sit over here
You guys are speaking again?
Your mom is a strong woman
You mean "bitch" ,right?
Don't say "bitch" in the hospital, dear
What am I gonna do?
Start by passing me the joint
In life
What am I gonna do for the rest of my life?
All of a sudden,it matters.
Well,Tim, the secret of a successfull life is finding something you love
Is there somethi
ng that you love?
Yes
Good
Then you have to do that for
the rest of your life.
And you'd better hope you're good at it
because if you feel,then you'll probably fail
How do you know if you are good at it?
I am not good at it
Yes.
People tell you.
Is there such a thing as a human heart?
Now,that is a better quesiton
Well if you listen closely
You can hear him breaking
Are you all right?
It's ok
You okay?
It's all right.
It's all right.
How did we let it happen, Sandy?
Em...I'm not sure exactly which it
we're talking about.
Everything's going to be okay.
We should save what every little money we have left
We both know what the test gonna say
-No,we don't
-Yes,we do
No,we don't
Please,don't make me play this game
This is not a fucking game
I am not gonna stand around while another member
step away and kill himself
Okay?
So...until those tests come back...
Okay, Ben.
Okay.
It's time to go home you guys.
Your dad is waiting outside
Say good night
Could you please
hand me the notebook?
Sandy has streptoccal in the
in affection of lung
but the tumers we found there are benign
However, that doesn't mean she's in the clear.
Ben.
If you don't start taking better care of your wife,
then you are goning to lose her too.
For the first time in your life,stop telling
yourself that everything is okay
Why is that...good?
It's expensive
I think I've had enough
Why don't you guys give mom a minute?
Wait in the car.
Penny's gonna be graduating from high school this month,
do you know?
Just gonna be you and me
No buffer.
When you get out of here, Sandy,
I wanna start it again.
Do you want that?
I'd be lying if I said I knew for sure, Ben.
Don't you know we can't do this without you?
I don't know who they are,Sandy
I don't know his friends' names,her major,I...the birthdays
We sit at the dinner table,I've got nothing to say to them.
To...Tim.
Well, he doesn't know who you are, Ben.
And I think it's time...we told him who he is.
You remember when you told me you felt
like you didn't fit into this family?
Yeah.
When I was a girl
I was in love with Randle Duwhire
Remember him?
Yeah,he is Kyle's Dad
And the truth is that er...Randle was in love
with Marge and...they got married.
That's why you fight
No.
when I was married to Ben...
I had an affair with Randall.
Oh!
You understand what I'm trying to tell you?
No.
There's a reason
why your brother and dad never treated you like you
were one of them
In a hundred years no one's ever
gonna know who we were, but...
they'll know those stars
They're the same stars
I wished on when I was a--
What are you doing?
-What the fuck are you doing?
-Tim please,what is this?
What is wrong with you?
Don't fuck yourself
Please. I don't understand it.
Are you out of your mind?
Get away from me.
I'm asking you,your mom read it too
she isn't sure.
What's it?
It is music
Music?
Uh-huh.
You know, Mom told me.
She told me everything
and to tell you the truth
I don't mind saying it
You're a pretty horrible father
Oh,well,I guess we're telling the truth now.
OK,good
I don't want you in my life
I don't wanna see your face when you're around
I don't even want to know if you're alive or not
I hate you all,always hate you
I always will hate you
You and me,we're different people.
No,no we're not
You and me are not...
You and me are not,you and me are not different people
you and me...
You and me are
father and son.
I..I don't care who you came here and
I don't care you are not look like me
I am your father and you are my son
and I am here,okey?
But you got talk to me
Because I...I can't do it by myself
I-- I don't know how to do this by myself.
And freedom for all with responsibility
To our family
to our friends,
and above all, to ourselves.
we remember the special moments
that we took for granteed
those wonderful,beautiful,magical moments
these were the best years of our lives
at least that's what they told us
Personally,
I hated high school
I hated all of you
and I hope you all roll in hell
Thank you
Thank you,Scully.
For those honestly,inspiration words
Congratulation for graduates
To their families,to their friends
And now to work as whole our senior class member Tim Travis to
play a music seletion of his own compositon.
Tim
What do you think?
Did I do that?
How would you gonna tell me how much
I have left to look forward to?
He's always so angry
He just took out on me
and one day he asked me for help
I mean,me,for the first time ever
