" You don't have a stockroom?" " No." " Or a basement?" "No." "We don't have an attic either." "Um, listen, you take 'em." "I don't need 'em." " No, no, no." "You saw them first." "I" " Please." "I insist." " Take them." "Wait a minute." " Oh!" "Oh!" " Excuse me, sir." "These are ours." " Yeah?" "Oh." "Your gloves?" "How come?" "They're just sort of hanging there, sleeping with their little price tag on." " We were just discussing them, all right?" " Well, I have news for you." "You can go on discussing them long after I've paid for them." " Calm down, all right?" " Calm down?" "It's five days before Christmas." "I'm in the middle of a New York department store." "He's asking me to calm down." "Well, these were meant to be a very special gift for someone." "Yeah, we put quite a lot of thought into those." " Isn't that right?" " Well, who were they for?" " My boyfriend." " My girlfriend." " Her boyfriend." " His girlfriend." "One pair of gloves for two people?" " This is hard to explain." " Try." "All right." "Go ahead." "Oh." "Uh, well, he is at the present time my boyfriend." "But in 18 months" "After the operation" " He will be" " She will be" "My girlfriend." "Do you understand?" "That didn't really work out." " No, but Merry Christmas anyway." " Thank you very much." "Well, you earned these." "That was quick on your feet." " Thanks." "It was a team effort." " Yeah, it was." "It was." " I don't know how to thank you." " Well" "Ah, well." "# Have a yule that's cool ##" "They're ready for you guys." "Thank you." "I don't know what you said to that guy makes any sense." " But I think we scared the bejesus out of him." " You were pretty fierce." "This will work, though." "This is quite a coffee." "But I'm serious about the check." "It's the least I can do." "Well, thank you, but,..." "see, now I have to go find something else for my girlfriend." " Oh, they were for your girlfriend." " Yes, they were." " Oh, I can't accept them then." " Well, you have to." "Otherwise you won't treat." "Really." "Let me tell you something." "This is the ultimate blend to drink." " Where did you find this place?" " I first came in because of the name." "Serendipity." "It's one of my favorite words." " It is?" "Why?" " Uh-huh." "'Cause it's such a nice sound for what it means: a fortunate accident." "Except I don't really believe in accidents." " I think fate's behind everything." " Oh, you do?" " Yeah." " Fate's behind everything?" " I think so." " Everything's predestined?" " We don't have any choice at all?" " No, I think we make our own decisions." "I just think that fate sends us little signs, and it's how we read the signs that determines whether we're happy or not." " Little signals." "Yeah." " Yeah." "Fortunate accidents." "Lucky discoveries." "Columbus in America." " Yeah, or Fleming discovering penicillin." " Penicillin." " Fleming is his name?" " Yes." "Or "Jonathan and the Gloves."" " I don't know that one." " You don't know that story?" "It's an old folk tale classic." "Our hero, Jonathan, goes out in search of black gloves." "And in a perfect act of "serendipiocity" or "serendipaciousness,"" "he runs into a beautiful, attractive English girl with a boyfriend." "You have a boyfriend, right?" " Yeah, I do." " That's what I thought." " And you have the glove lady." " Yes, I do." " Mm-hmm." " It was a very nice time." "Well, I hope you enjoy the gloves you bought yourself." "Oh, I'm sure I will." "I usually appreciate my own thoughtfulness." " What do you want for Christmas?" " Golf clubs." "So you're gonna meet your boyfriend now or what?" "No, I think he's probably out doing what you're doing." "Getting a crush on someone else's girlfriend?" "No, I'm sorry." "I just meant to say I had a really great time." "You know, maybe you should give me your phone number, you know, just in case." " In case of what?" " You know, in case of life." "I just had a great time, and I'd never be able to find you again." "Well, if we're meant to meet again, then we'll meet again." "It's just not the right time now." "Maybe we were supposed to meet on British time and we're five hours too early." "Come on." "I don't even know your name." "My name is Jonathan." " Does that make you wanna tell me something?" " Yeah, it does." "Merry Christmas, Jonathan." "And thanks." "That's it?"

"Now, promise me you're not just visiting here for a week... or marrying somebody to get a green card or on parole." "None of the above." "You?" "No, no, no." "Proud U.S. citizen." "No criminal record." "So you won't tell me your name." "Well, tell me, uh, what do you miss most about Mother England?" "I miss my mom terribly." "If I were her, I'd miss you too." "Okay." "Favorite movie." " The correct answer is Cool Hand Luke." " I've never seen it." "Oh, come on." "You've never seen Cool Hand Luke?" "Paul Newman?" "Oh, my God." "Come on!" ""Failure to communicate."

" Did you hurt yourself?" " No." "Yes." " You did?" "Let's take a look at that." " Ouch." " Oh, Jesus." "That's a deep, deep gash." " Gaping." "What?" "We'll fix that right up." "There you go." "What?" "Oh, you're looking at my freckles." "It's the curse of the English, I'm afraid." "Fair skin and bad teeth." "No, you have great teeth." "Those aren't just freckles." "If you look closely, you can see Cassiopeia." " What?" " Right there." "Hold on a minute." "Okay." "All right, here's the story." "A long time ago in Ethiopia, there was this queen named Cassiopeia... who thought she was the most beautiful woman in the entire world, and there wasn't anybody in the kingdom who wasn't offended... by this woman's relentless vanity." "And then one day, she really screwed up and offended the gods." "I don't remember what she did and I don't remember who she offended." "But it was bad." "She crossed the line." "But anyway, Poseidon, the sea god, punished Cassiopeia... by placing her in the heavens upside down on her throne, stuck for eternity with her skirt around her shoulders... and all the blood rushing to her head." "And now she's just a constellation in the sky, a bunch of English freckles in the shape of a throne." "So she made one tragic mistake." "And paid for eternity." "Correct." " Yeah, yeah, yeah." " Legible, legible." " I can't believe I'm doing this." " Now, please, please." "Let fate take its proper course." "Oh!" "That was an accident." "Write down that again, please." "I can't." "That was a sign." "Fate's telling us to back off." "If fate didn't want us to be together, then why did we meet tonight, huh?" " Gotcha." " Well, I don't know." " But it's not an exact science." "It's a feeling." " Well, what if you're wrong?" "Huh?" "What if it's all in our hands and we just walk away?" "No names, no phone numbers, nothing." "What do you think's gonna happen?" "Do you think good old fate is just gonna deliver my information... right to your doorstep?" "Do you know that's the best idea you're had all night?" "What's the best" "Here you go." "Write your name and number down." " On a $5.00 bill?" " Mm." "Just do it." "You are a strange and interesting woman." "Now what?" "Wait there." "Hey!" "What the hell was that?" "When that $5.00 bill makes it back into my hands, I'll be able to call you." "And when you hear my voice on the other end, then you'll believe in fate, won't you?" " Hey, what about me?" " What do you mean?" "Well, we have to send something out in the universe with your name on it, don't we?" " Come on." "Isn't that the only fair thing?" " That is the only fair thing." "What have I got, even?" "Ooh." "No." "I have a really good idea." " What?" " Okay." "That's a lot of tuba." " Okay, see this book?" " Yeah." "Okay, so when I get home tonight," "I'm gonna write my name and number inside this book." "And then first thing tomorrow morning, I'll sell it to a used book store." "Which one?" "You're not gonna tell me." "You're not gonna tell me." "Why not?" "Well, now, every time you go past an old book store, you're gonna have to go inside to see if it's there." "This is just wrong." "You don't just have the most incredible night of your life... with a perfect stranger and then leave it all to chance, do ya?" " Do ya?" " Come with me a second." "What, we're gonna get a room?" "I'm kidding." "But I wanna know you more." " Come on." "Where are we going?" " Okay." " Now, you stay here." " Okay." "No, stay here." "Stay there." "Don't make me come over there." "Okay." "All right, if we both randomly pick the same floor," " we're meant to be together now." " You're insane." "Come on." "Okay, get in." "Take a breath, and then when the door closes, hit a button." "I don't understand this." "You don't have to understand." "You just have to have faith." "Faith in what?" "Destiny." "Hey!" "It's Sara." "My name's Sara." "And here it is." "See?" "You were right." " Uh" " Let's go, buddy." "We're going up here." "Oh, that's okay." "Josh likes to ride either way." " Don't you, Josh?" "Don't do that!" "Don't touch those!" "Hey, calm down." "He's just a kid." " Looks like we've stopped." " We're going again." " Thank you." " Where is she?" "Is she here?" " No, no." "I don't think so." "Come on, Josh." "Let's go, buddy." "Okay, stay alert." " Is she here?" " No, not here." "Back in the elevator." " She's not here?" " Come on!" "Come on!" "Move it!" "Come on, boy!" " [ Dog Barks ]" "Hey, Sara." "I'm sorry." " Hey." "I'm sorry." " What?" "I'm sorry." "I usually have to beg to be a part of weddings." "And if I do get into the wedding, of course they postponed it, and it's overseas somewhere, and they've canceled my passport, and I can't be a part of it, and it's ridiculous" "and awkward and horrible." "So thank you." "I take this very seriously." "It's a gift to be the best man." "They say that once in your lifetime, someone comes along... whom you're absolutely meant to be with." "Everything feels great, stars are aligned, body and spirit are in balance." "For my friend Jonathan Trager, that person was me." "But as you know, Jonny and I were simpatico." "We were brothers from another mother." "We were friends since freshman year." "I watched him go out with woman after woman, and he'd always..." "come crawling-- he would come crawling back to me." " It was embarrassing." " You loved it." "But then one night he came home and things were different." "His adolescent dream of becoming a documentary filmmaker was a thing of the past." " Thank God." " He hardly even responded... to my playful yet tormented flicks of my finger... against the soft part of his skull as he studied for finals." "And that is because he had found her." "The woman he was meant to be with." "And if anyone is qualified to know when he met his soul mate, it would be me, his first wife." "She's smart, she's funny, she's beautiful." "In short, she's the kind of woman that any man would dream about." "And I think we all have." "So it is with sadness... and fond, fond memories... that I raise my glass... to the new Mrs. Jonathan Trager." "I'll tell you what." "I'll tell you something." "My friends, if I had to lose Jonny to anyone," "I can't imagine a more perfect woman than Halley." "Cheers to both of you." "How drunk is he on a scale of one to ten?" "Twelve." "You think we'll ever out-romance Dean and Courtney?" "I don't know." "I don't think I've ever seen them fight." "Me neither." "Must be a bitch on their sex life." "We have a pomegranate soufflé which is amazing, which is... different than the sorbet." "Listen, we'd love to join you guys, but Courtney has to wake up, so I got to be good." "Halley, listen to me." "It's not too late to back out." " Good night, Dean." " And I'm at 166th and" "Good night, Courtney." "Mama, you don't want to see this." "I need" " I need to snuggle." "I'm gonna go sleep it off." "Listen, you're wonderful." "Good night." " You know what?" "You need me." " Take care." "Come on, hon." "You guys, listen, I hate to tell you, but I gotta go home too." "I have to." "I gotta get up at 8:00 in the morning." "My day is crazy tomorrow." " Come in for one drink." " He doesn't want to come." " I'll see you in about 20 hours." " Bye-bye, dear." " I love you, son." " Night-night." " George." " Take care." "You okay?" " You better be up later." " Yeah, why?" "Because I'm gonna come home and get undressed..." " and climb into bed," " Uh-huh?" "act like we just got over a terrible fight." "See you later now." "Reading is good for you." "Knowledge." "Reading?" " Hold on, hold on." "Listen, listen." " I read it a long time ago." "I'll throw in the screenplay to The Bridges of Madison County." "I saw the movie." "It was great." "Okay, and" "And nothing." "I mean-- I mean, I did nothing." "I" " I just let her walk out of the party and I didn't say anything to her." "And now she's gone forever." "I mean, she was my soul mate." "Kenny, I honestly think it's dangerous to use the term "soul mate."" "It implies there's some magical element that we have no control over, like fate or destiny." "I think holding on to beliefs like that stops us doing the real work." "And the fact is, if your therapy stays on track," "I think you'll find there are many, many people out there you could easily be happy with." "You truly believe all that, Sara?" "Yeah." "I really do." " There you go." " Thanks."

"Are you serious?" "Get out of town." "Yeah, that's the idea." " Thanks." "Talk to you soon." " Okay." "This is unbelievable." "Sara, really, this is way too generous of you." "Oh, come on." "Can't a girl do something nice for her friend on her birthday?" "There's no ulterior motives?" "Well, yeah." "I'm getting married in a week and I'd just like to have one last fling... with my best friend before I walk down the aisle." "It's so sweet." "But, you know, you're really not my type."

"I knew you wouldn't come if I told you the truth." "I needed my best friend with me." "What are you doing, Sara?" "Honestly, Sara, I don't understand you anymore, okay?" "Please, tell me something." "Tell me anything that makes just a little bit of sense." "I've just spent the entire flight... staring into the sky, thinking." "Not about my fiancé, but about this mystery guy..." "I met a million and a half hours ago." "A guy I don't even remember, except for this... vague picture I have inside my head." "It was just a few seconds." "A fragment, really." "And it was like... in that moment, the whole universe existed just to bring us together." "That's why I'm here." "That's why I'm gonna let fate take me wherever it wants to go."

" Finally she gets it." "Okay, we are going..." "that way." "And I'm gonna follow." "You can do it yourself." "Just open up the computer and look into it." "I'm not even sure that I can give you this information." "If you can't, why can't you?" "Because I'm just a temp, okay?" "I don't know the rules." "Couple of months out of college, you're acting like you're part of the establishment." "No, no, no, no, no-- What about privacy law, huh?" "Forget about privacy laws." "You know what privacy laws do?" "No." "They protect millionaires." "Do you know who those are?" " Who?" " Tell him who they are." " Tell him." " Kids your age." "Pimple-faced college dropouts who have made unhealthy sums of money... forming Internet companies that create no concrete products, provide no viable services and still manage to generate profits... for all of its lazy, day-trading, son-of-a-bitch shareholders."

"Well, I say for a dollar," "I can buy a little Magic Marker and fix that." "I'll take it." "Twenty bucks?" "Right back here." "Here you go." "Two buckets of balls for the price of one at the Chelsea Piers today." " So where are we going to now?" " I don't know." " Lady, lady, you're a golfer?" " I feel like I feel something." " Two for the price of one." " Right where I'm standing." "Hey!" "Who are you?" "Can you believe that?" "Two bucket of" " Whoa!" "Will you help me up, ma'am?" "Yeah, yeah, help me up." "Oh, my God." " Are you okay?" " Is the ball okay?" "Yeah, the back of the head." "Is that all right?" "Oh, my." "Goodness gracious." "I'm all right." "Can you get the flyers?" "Here you go." " Taxi!" " Sara!" "They should make pills for this." "He's gotta be here." "He's got to be here." "I can feel it." " Excuse me." "Miss?" " Yeah?" " You're blocking my shot." " Oh." "Oh." "Sorry." "This is Nick Roberts, ESPN News, New York City." " Oh!" " [ Eve ] Do you know who plays golf?" "Guys who are too fat to play tennis." "Like that guy." "Well, this is a special occasion." "After all, how many times in your life is your son gonna get married?" "Well said." " You wanna know why I love this game?" " No." "Why?" "I'll tell ya."

"Sorry up there." " Eve, look out!" " Go." "Oh, my God, I'm so sorry." "I'm, so sorr" " Are you okay?" "Please say something." "Say something." "I think I swallowed a filling." "Thank you for letting us in." "Now, Mr. Mignon, we have an odd and somewhat personal question to ask you." "Mignon." "Mr. Mignon." "Mignon." "Like the meat." "Mr. Mignon, a few years ago, did you live with a girl, first name Sara?" "Attractive, dark hair, kind of, like, mysterious, you know, really amazing girl." "Oui." "Do you know where we can locate this individual?" "No, I do not." " Do you remember her last name?" " No." "Oh, come on." "You don't even remember the last name of your ex-girlfriend?" " I find that hard to believe." " You don't understand anything." "She was not my girlfriend." "She was just, uh, a roommate." "She stayed with me for a very short period of time." " She was placed with me by" " A roommate finder's service?" "Oui." "She stayed with me with her boyfriend for a few months" "I don't care about him." "And then he moved out very quickly." "And at the end of the year, she moved out too." "That's it." "Yeah, but did she leave anything behind, maybe with her last name on it, like a receipt, a bill?" " Like a piece of luggage?" " No." "No, no." "Anything would help, really." "Anything." "I remember she sat on me." "She" " She sat on you?" "Yes." "She sat on me for a while." "I found her... inspiring." "I guess that is why I started painting her in the first place." "Oh." "She sat for you." "I'm sorry." "That is what I said." " That's what he said." " That's what I said." "Clearly." "Do you happen to have the painting?" "Hey, now you're gonna see what it's all about." "You know, you see her face." "Okay." "Yeah." "This is her, yes?" "Yeah, sure." "Around the eyes a little." "I mean, I'm definitely getting the British thing, you know, with the crown and the scepter." "Do you have a name for the roommate finder's service?" " They would have the information." " Absolutely." "Do you have the name?" "No, I do not." "But if it helps, I do remember where the service was located." " Yes!" "Absolutely!" " Yes!" "Where?" "Where?" " Manhattan." " Where in Manhattan, Mr. Mignon?" "On 60th Street." " East side or west side?" " It was just next to that-- on the left of that splendid little patisserie," "Serendipity." "That's it." "Get" " Get ready." "Happy birthday." "It's on the house." "Thank you." "Thanks." "Oh, I'm a god-awful friend." " No, you will be if you sing." " [ Laughs ]" "Eve, thanks so much for coming with me." "You're welcome." "Sara, you know, it's a wonderful thought." "The idea that all of life, that every single event is part of some master plan... designed to lead us to our universal soul mate." "But if that's really true, then what's the point of living?" "Or making decisions?" "Hell, why should we even get out of bed in the morning?" "For the cake?" "No." "Not for cake." "So that you make mistakes." "Mistakes like this trip." "And if you're smart enough, you learn from your mistakes." "You figure it out." "You-You think." "You realize that life isn't some elaborate stage play with directions for the actors." "Life's a mess, Sara." "It's-It's chaos personified." "I have to give it all up now, don't I?" "Sara, you have a fiancé who, despite his..." "weird Eastern music, which we hope is just a phase, let's hope, loves you very, very, very much." "It's not giving up." "It's growing up." "Let's get out of here." "Yeah." " Here's one." " Ooh, catch it." " It's a bridal shop." " Oh, my God." "The irony." "Wait right here." "I'll be right back." " Why?" " Stay here!" " Time, please?" " Uh, about 7:30." "Right." "Right." "They moved downtown." "If we get lucky with traffic, we can still hit it." " What time is rehearsal?" " Can't do it." " Taxi!" " It's over, man." "What?" "What are you talking about?" "How can I ignore that?" ""Bless the goddamn bride"?" "What?" "It can't get any more clearer than this." "I'm not supposed to be doing this." "It's not in the cards." "Hey, it's another one of your clues, man." "Let's talk about it in the cab..." " ...on the way over." " It's not a clue." "It's a sign." "What's the difference?" "A clue is what a detective uses to find a suspect." "The receipt, the warehouse, that French guy-- those are clues." "This is a sign." "Me never finding the book, that's a sign." "Sara never finding the $5.00 bill, that's a sign." "How could something not happening be a sign?" "Maybe the absence of signs is a sign." "Isn't it?" "That's lucid." "Look, I don't know, man." "Maybe there is no fate." "And if there is, it's not working for me." "You know, it's not actually supposed to end this way, by the way." "We're supposed to pull the curtain and see the wizard, all right?" "Get to the end of the river." "This is the end of the river." "My wedding rehearsal... starts in less than an hour." " My bride is waiting for me." " Let me ask you something here." "If Sara were here right now, poof, came down, what would she tell you to do?" "She would tell me to run, not walk to the Waldorf... because all the signs point to me getting married." "Look." "Wedding dress." "Lots of white." " I hate to state the obvious" " State it." "If you don't do this, you may never find out who Sara is." "Maybe I was never supposed to." "Maybe all this is just a maze... designed to lead me directly back to where I started." "Which is getting married." "They should make pills for this." " Halley?" " Oh, my God." "Eve!" "What a crazy coincidence!" " How are you?" " Good." "Oh, my God." "Sara, can you believe... that I was Halley's R.A. in college?" "Isn't that funny?" "Oh, I'm sorry." "This is Sara." " Hi." "Nice to meet you." " Nice to meet you too." "Oh, my gosh." "What's it been, like eight or nine years?" "Eve was, uh-- I went to B.U. with Eve." " Well, isn't that wonderful?" " Yeah." "How about that?" "So what are you doing here?" " I'm getting married tomorrow." " You are?" "Congratulations." " Congratulations." " Wow!" " Thanks." " In this hotel?" "Yeah, at noon." "We're going to rehearsal." " Why don't you come watch?" " Why don't you go?" "Okay, sure." "I would love to come and watch." "And you can bring your..." "partner if you want." " Oh!" " Oh!" "No, no." "I have to go upstairs and call my fiancé-- who's a man." "Oh!" "You must be very proud." "Okay, so have a good one." " I'll see you later." " Okay, good." "Good-bye, my sweet lesbian lady lover." "I'm just kidding." "It's just a joke between us." "Lars?" "What are you doing?" " How did you know where I was?" " Intuition." "Really?" "No." "I went through the New York Hotel Guide." "Alphabetically, in reverse." "I started with "Z."" "Sara, I missed you so much." "I'm sorry." "I don't blame you for running away." "I was so..." "focused on the album, the video." "I, Jonathan, take you, Halley, to be my wife, and I promise to love and sustain you... in the bond of marriage from this day forward." "[ Dialogue Fades Out ]" "And obviously, Jonathan, you'll be looking at Halley." " And that's when the actual ceremony will conclude." " Excuse me." " What?" "I need some help over here." "And then-- then you're married." "Hal, who's that girl over there?" " Oh, that's my old friend Eve." " Oh." "[ Woman ] Okay, everyone, that's a wrap." "And now make sure to be here tomorrow morning at 9:00 sharp for pictures." "I hate to break up a good thing,... but we have some strippers waiting for us." "We're late." " You mean "exotic dancers."" " No, no." "Actually "strippers."" " The women who take off everything." " I'll see you men at 9:00." "But remember, I promised Judy I'd be home by 10:00." "Fantastic." "It gives you an hour to get crazy." "Let's get into it." "Before you take Jon and Dad off to your male-bonding ritual, I need to talk to him." "Okay." "Beautiful bride." "I'll be in the cab." " Hi." " I want you to meet Jon." " Hi." "It's so nice to meet you." " I would love for you to come tomorrow." " We'd feel terrible if you didn't." " Really?" " Yeah." " That's so sweet." "It's tomorrow at noon?" "Yeah, and you can bring your friend if you want." " Be there." " Okay." "I'll be there." "Thank you." "That's so nice." " See you tomorrow." " Nice to meet you." "Bye." "See you." " Halley, what is it?" "What's wrong?" " It's you." "What do you mean, it's me?" "What did I do?" "Nothing, exactly." "It's just this feeling I have, like-- like you've been somewhere else for the past few days." " That's not true." " Don't lie to me, Jonathan." "I've dreamed about this my entire life, and-and..." "I've imagined the dress and the flowers... and even the music the band was gonna play." "And everything is exactly the way I want it, except for my fiancé, who's just decided to float off to Never-Never Land." "Look, maybe I've been a little bit out of it the past week, but it's just normal, you know, guy stuff." "It's a little cold feet." "Doesn't mean I don't love you." "Well, call me crazy, but I'd like my fiancé's feet to be warm, especially when we're hours from going down the aisle." "I'm sorry, Hal." "Really, I am." "Whatever it is that you're holding on to, please just let it go." "Please." "I think it already let go of me, okay?" "Wait." " What's this?" " What do you think?" "It's the traditional groom's gift." " I got yours, and I forgot to bring it." " I know." "It's okay." "Open it." "It's a first edition." "It's just that every time we go into a book store, you're always flipping through it." "And I checked this week." "You don't even have a copy." "What's wrong?" "Don't you like it?" "It's perfect."

"He was 35 years old and soft-spoken and obsessive." "Trager never looked the part of a hopeless romantic." "But in the final days of his life, he revealed an unknown side of his psyche." "This hidden quasi-Jungian persona... surfaced during the Agatha Christie-like pursuit for his long-reputed soul mate, a woman whom he only spent a few precious hours with." "Sadly, the protracted search ended late Saturday night... in complete and utter failure." "Yet even in certain defeat, the courageous Trager secretly clung to the belief... that life is not merely a series of meaningless accidents or coincidences." "Uh-uh." "But rather it's a tapestry of events... that culminate in an exquisite, sublime plan." "Asked about the loss of his dear friend, Dean Kansky, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author and executive editor of the New York Times, described Jonathan as a changed man in the last days of his life." ""Things were clearer for him," Kansky noted." "Ultimately, Jonathan concluded that if we are to live life in harmony with the universe,... we must all possess a powerful faith in what the ancients used to call "fatum," what we currently..." " ...refer to as destiny." " Destiny." " So what are you gonna do?" " I don't know." "I guess I'm just gonna try and find him or something." "I don't think you should do that." "I really don't."
