Clear Rivers
- Clear Rivers: This gives me a rush!
- Alex Browning: What? This place?
- Clear Rivers: Doing something I'm not supposed to.
- Alex Browning: [looking at Tod in the funeral home] Is that him?
- Clear Rivers: I think so. Why did they make him look like Michael Jackson?
- Clear Rivers: When I was a kid, like six or seven, I used to worry so much about my parents dying. Lying awake at night, just worrying.
- Alex Browning: Most kids do, I guess.
- Clear Rivers: Most kids never have it happen.
- Billy Hitchcock: That's right! You're next, Carter! I'm staying the fuck away from you!
- Carter: Shut up, Billy!
- Clear Rivers: Billy, we don't need this shit right now!
- Billy Hitchcock: I don't need it ever! Get away from him! He's next!
- Carter: Fuck you, Billy! I'm not dead!
- Billy Hitchcock: Oh, you will be. You're dead... you're dead and you ain't taking me with you!
- Clear Rivers: Almost autumn.
- Alex Browning: It's only the end of June.
- Clear Rivers: Yeah, but everything's always in transition. If you focus, even now, just one week into summer, you can almost feel autumn coming.
- Clear Rivers: [turns toward Alex]
- Clear Rivers: Kinda like being able to see the future.
- Clear Rivers: [gesturing toward artwork] Do you know what this is?
- Alex Browning: This is... this is springy head guy.
- Clear Rivers: It's you Alex, and how you make me feel.
- Alex Browning: I'm sorry.
- Carter: Well, we made it.
- Clear Rivers: Paris, I can't believe it.
- Alex Browning: I just can't believe we got on a plane again, you know what I'm saying?
- [With cups of coffee, Alex and Clear sit down at a Espresso shop corner table]
- Alex Browning: The mortician said that Death has a design. Okay. I'm talking about omens. How do we know that just by sitting here - by, by sipping this coffee, or breathing the air, or even crossing the intersection - that we haven't even started in motion the events that will some day lead to our death: forty years from now, ten years from now, tomorrow. We don't. Unless we open ourselves up...
- Alex Browning: [as Clear glances nervously at the intersection, Alex draws from his pocket the tiny slice of paper that reads "Tod" and slides it across the table to her]
- Alex Browning: ...to the signs that It's willing to show us?
- Clear Rivers: I don't understand. Did you see Tod die? Did it happen again, like on the plane?
- Alex Browning: [shaking his head] No. No, it didn't, but, I mean, it might as well have. This is a message from something, Clear, or someone - hinting at a design.
- Clear Rivers: Total bullshit. I mean, you can find death omens anywhere you want to.
- [Alex glances at the window of the Espresso shop and sees the ghostly reflection of a bus passing by. As she continues to talk, ominous music rises and Alex glances worriedly around the streets]
- Clear Rivers: Coffee. Starts with a C and ends with an E. So does the word "choke." So, what, we're going to choke to death? I wanna hear you.
- [Alex glances anxiously over his shoulder again]
- Clear Rivers: We'll go nuts if you start with this shit.
- Alex Browning: The mortician said that Death has a design. Right? Now, what if you, me, Tod, Carter, Terry, Billy, Ms. Lewton messed up that design. For whatever reason, I saw Death's plan. We cheated him. But what if it was our time? What if we were not meant to get off that plane? What if it still is our time? If it is, then it's not finished, and we will die - now, not later - unless, unless we find the patterns and cheat It again.
- [Behind Alex's back, Carter drives his car up to the intersection and waits for the light. Terry is sitting next to him. Carter glances over to see Alex and Clear; he scowls. Terry smiles at Carter, then sees them too, and her smile fades, as though fearful of a confrontation]
- Clear Rivers: After hearing you, I, I do believe...
- [Alex smiles]
- Clear Rivers: ...that Tod killed himself.
- [Alex's face turns serious]
