"No." "I don't know." "Am I-- Am I just going nuts?" "As nuts as Christopher Columbus... thinking there was another side to the earth." "Talk to an anesthesiologist." "They'll tell you." "There are a hundred steps on the ladder of consciousness... between being fully alert... and being dead." "To put a patient under, they bring them down... only to the tenth rung." "Beneath that is a descending gray scale... like the depths of an ocean... no one has explored." "It's in those depths, those murky depths... she's finding them-- the children." "They're her conduit, because she knew... you'd find your way to them." "Stay close to them." "Be with them when they slip away so you can be with them... when they first awaken, before the details fade." "One of them... will come back with the answer."

"We've got a healthy kidney up here." "Just Dr. Darrow." "Joe." "Yeah." "Joe, I'm on my way over to harvest a kidney... and I want you to protect it for me." "Tell me what to do." "All right." "They're coming in for other organs, but that kidney is mine." "I want that made clear in case anybody choppers in and tries to grab it." "Stay on top of his vitals." "Don't leave the room and hold off the vultures." "I don't want anybody cutting until I get there." "Consider it done." "Put Jeanette back on the phone, buddy." "I'm ten minutes away." "Jeanette." "Yes, sir." " You're Dickinson?" " Darrow." "They told me not to leave him, but I gotta get this monitor over to the recipient." "I'll keep watch in here." "Ventilator's set at 16."

"Move him out." "Charlie, wait a second." "What?" "This man's not dead." "The brain scan jumped." "I saw it." "I saw it on the monitor." "Come on, Joe." "It's flat as a pancake." "Come on."

"He spoke to me." "I'm telling you." "Joe, please." "Joe, this man did not speak to you." "It was Emily!" "It was her voice." "I am not crazy." "You back off." "Don't talk like this." "You've gotta" "You've gotta listen to me." "Charlie, just hold off." "For one minute." "Leave me alone with him." "This is nuts, Joe." " Come on." "Get him inside!" " Hey!" "Easy!" "Easy!"

"He said you claimed a brain-dead organ donor spoke to you." "Is that true?" "No." "Good." "It was Emily." "Speaking through him." "[ Sighs ]" "You know, I could almost understand it with the kids, because they all knew her." "Of course they're gonna dream about her." "She was key to their survival." "Okay, then how about the kid who never even laid eyes on her?" "What kid?" "The kid I told you about in the kitchen." "The first time he ever met her was in a coma, Miriam." "Remember?" "I've got his admission records to prove it." "That's evidence, right?" "Isn't that what you wanted?" "She's trying to reach me, and she's becoming desperate." "Why?" "Why desperate, Joe?" "Oh, you don't think she's still alive." "If a kid could see her in a coma, then why... couldn't she be trying to communicate from one?" "There were no survivors." "The Venezuelan government searched the jungle for a month." "And never found her!" "Exactly." "And that's why we're here tonight-- because you never saw her body and never got closure." "Emily's dead, Joe." "That's what this is all about-- your refusal to accept that." "Look." "I understand it." "If I hadn't seen Hannah's body, I wouldn't have believed it either." "I'd still be waiting for her to come home, just like you are." "You have to end this, Joe." "You gotta do the hard stuff, like I did." "Like everyone does." "You gotta clean out the closets, empty the drawers... and take down the vacancy sign that says "Emily's ghost is welcome here"... and get on with your life without her." "[ Bag Crinkling ]" "[ Softly ] All right." "What about that rafting trip?" "What do you mean, what about it?" "Well, anything to get your mind off of this." "So, you think I should go?" "Maybe I'll go with you." "Huh?" "I'm mean with a paddle." "[ Chuckles ]" "The river's up this time of year." "It's gone from a two-point difficulty to a five." "I want us all to go home, go over our river maps." "Note the hazard points, the portages, the waterfalls." "Oh, check out these safari pants." "It says to pack light." "I'm just bringing my thong." "Well, then, I'm bringing my camera." "Well, it better be disposable, because it's likely everything is going into the drink." "Speaking of drink, here's to adventure." "Yeah!" "Adventure." "[ Dog Barking ln Distance ]" "What do you think?" "I think it's an idea whose time has come." "[ Chuckles ] No, I mean" " I mean, do you think it'll sell?" "The agent said it needed a paint job." "Oh, get what you can and get out." "Leave the memories behind." "You didn't after Hannah died." "Yeah, but I didn't have corpses playing ventriloquist with me either." "[ Both Laughing ]" "I'm gonna miss you, Joe." "I'm gonna miss your waffles." "Would you show it for me if I'm gone for a week?" " I'm taking that white-water trip." " With pleasure."

"In a way, I guess." "There was an accident here last spring." "A bus?" "That washed away on a road?" "La Cruz Roja." "The Red Cross." "Yes, that's right." "You can probably see it now that the river's not so high." "It's just up ahead." "It's on the way." "The rock slide took more than just a bus." "It isolated an entire tribe from the outside world." "Can you see it down there?" "Nobody lived." "The Yanomami are still wearing some of their clothing." "That's Juanajuapa up ahead."
