The Librarians (2014–2018): Season 3, Episode 8 - And the Eternal Question - full transcript

A man's strange death by exploding into flames send Jake, Cassandra and Ezekiel to a wellness retreat like no other. There they find the key to eternity or at least it seems they do. Meanwhile Carsen and Baird spend much needed time alone.

(exhales)

(panting)

Man: Let's go! Come on! In the hole!

- (crowd shouting)
- Get in!

- Yeah! Yeah!
- (cheering)

- Great putt, sir.
- That was beautiful. Oh, my God!

- One moment. Here you go.
- You got it, sir?

Seth, please, let the
caddie carry your bag.

You don't have to prove anything.

Honey, I'm not trying
to prove anything.

I always carry my own bag for luck.



Well, it's working.

But, remember, if you start
to feel tired or imbalanced,

you can always stop and get some water.

Honey, it's okay.

I'm not sick anymore.

I know.

You're doing great.

(sighs, panting)

- Here you go, sir.
- Man: You're on a roll, Seth!

(crowd applauding)

Hey, buddy, you're smoking.

I know, right?

I feel great.

No, dude, you're on fire!



- (gasps)
- (screaming)

(theme music playing)

- Stone: It doesn't exist.
- Ezekiel: Yes, it does.

- Stone: No, it doesn't.
- Gentlemen!

Working on something rather sensitive,

if you don't mind.

Both: Sorry.

- I'm telling you, yes, it does.
- Don't be stupid, man.

People, don't randomly explode!

- You mean like that?
- Sorry.

Spontaneous human
combustion is a myth, okay?

Reported cases are usually found to be

accidental deaths
caused by a fire nearby.

Usually, not always. Leave a
little room for the unexplainable.

I don't like the unexplainable.

Before we go running
off to South Carolina,

I want to look in these
books and find out

why our amateur golfer
might have burst into flames.

Mr. Jenkins, got any ideas
where we can start?

(blows raspberry)

(blows raspberry) That's all you got?

There's no magical precedents

for spontaneous human combustion.

When it does happen,
which is very rare,

it's usually a quirk of science.

If it's not magic-based,

why would the Clipping Book alert us?

Guess we'll have to go
to Charleston and find out.

- Cass, are you coming?
- Yes! Uh, no.

I mean, I'm gonna go
talk to a friend of mine

at the hospital I used to work
at in New York... Dr. Nassir.

He did a research study on
spontaneous human combustion.

I'll see if he has anything for us.

Great, so Cassandra and
I will head to New York

and you guys can go to South Carolina.

No. I should probably go on my own.

He can be a little touchy.

Eve can't go anyway.

I have a mission of my own
and it takes precedence.

Precedence over people
randomly catching on fire?

I found a code hidden deep
within Charlene's ledgers.

Charlene?

She found a way to let
you know where she is?

No, I think this clue
leads someplace else,

and I don't think it was left for me.

Ebb Tide manufacturing
in Moose Creek, Alaska?

Why Moose Creek?

It's a town just outside

of Fort Wainwright military base

where I lived as a kid.

Ebb Tide Manufacturing?

E-B-B are my initials.

- What's the middle B stand for?
- It stands for

"Better not ask if you like
your face the way it is."

- Wordy.
- This is a clue she left for me.

- What do you think's in Alaska?
- I don't know.

Let's find out.

Jenkins, do you have
that rather sensitive

but important piece of equipment

I asked you to construct?

Yes, sir. I think it will work,

but I have not had
the chance to test it.

Excellent.

Eve, come!

Adventure and mystery await us all.

All right, so now we need three doors.

Charleston, New York, and Alaska?

Three doors.

People leave food day and night.

I keep thinking,

Seth will love this lasagna.

- Then I remember.
- We're very sorry for your loss.

Vitamins, supplements, aromatherapy...

nothing you'd really
call "fire-catchy."

Some might even say
that's unexplainable.

The funny thing was Seth didn't
even need those pills anymore.

He had cancer. Stage four.

He was terminal.

- And he was playing golf?
- He was terminal.

It wasn't until we stopped looking
for a cure that one found us.

What do you mean a cure found you?

We received a brochure in the mail

for a holistic spa retreat.

We went as a last resort.

They healed him.

I have the brochure
around here somewhere.

- Let me get the light.
- Oh, allow me.

Thanks.

(gasping)

(screaming)

Jones, the curtain!

Man: Do you understand what
I just explained to you?

- Cassandra?
- I understand.

I called up to surgery. They've
got a room prepping for us.

If we hurry, we can get you...

I don't want the surgery.

If you don't want the
surgery, what do you want?

Timeline?

Cassandra, there isn't any.

Your tumor is so large

that I'm shocked
you could walk in here.

We have to take care of this now.

There's nothing to take care of.

Cassandra.

My home number's on the back.

If you change your mind, call me.

You say ignition was instantaneous?

Man, I'm telling you, she was fine.

And then all of a sudden, yeah.

And then we did this.
We threw it over...

Okay, okay. I get it.

Like this, and then we...

She's back. What'd the doc say?

Your friend, the one who did the study

on spontaneous human combustion.

Nothing. Nothing magicky,

just that it usually occurs

with people with limited mobility,

advanced age, obesity, poor health...

- None of which fit our victims.
- Victims?

Victims? Plural?

You mean there's another one?
There's another victim?

There's been another
spontaneous combustion?

Color me intrigued.

Did someone give you caffeine?

So who is the other victim?

It's the golfer's wife.

Yeah, and he was ill, all right?

And they went to this holistic spa...

- The Vida de la Luz retreat.
- Vida de la Luz.

Man walks in with a terminal illness

and walks out doing wind sprints.

Well, are we waiting for?
We've got librarianing to do.

I'm gonna analyze these further,

see if there are any biometric
clues hiding within.

Well, you guys set the door.

We've got two victims and
a spooky spa to investigate.

- Chop, chop!
- Yeah, somebody gave her caffeine.

If you're looking for a counter-agent

for the effects of caffeine,

I'm afraid I've had no
luck inventing one yet.

I haven't had any caffeine.

In fact, I've never been
clearer in my own mind.

I think we should go to a movie

and dinner... at night.
Tonight. Together.

Wow.

Sounds strangely like a date.

Not strangely. Actually.

What? No. I don't do that.

I'm significantly older than you.

Well, you're significantly
older than everyone, so...

If I were a thousand years younger,

I would still be too old for you.

My immortality, Cassandra, it
practically makes us different species.

I don't think we're that different.

I think we have more
in common than you...

Hey! You coming?

- Yes.
- No.

Yes.

- If I came here, I'd never leave.
- Me neither.

- This place is...
- Not what I expected.

What exactly were you expecting?

Invite only clientele,
remote lush locations, money.

Yet, a single bejeweled choker

or a mirrored Ferrari to be found.

There are no mirrors anywhere here.

Too much contemplation
on your outer self

hides your inner self.

Welcome to La Vida de la Luz retreat.

- Are you the owner?
- My name is on the deed.

I prefer the term caretaker.

I am is Sofia. I run this
place with my children.

Ah, here's one now. Tomas, cariño.

Greetings, friends. Are you guests?

No, we're with the Library.

For the land assessment
from the county.

Yeah, we sent a notice last week.

Oh, did a notice come
and you forgot to tell me?

Sorry, madre. I've just been
so busy with all the guests.

I must have forgotten this.

- Hey.
- Is it always this busy here?

Si, people love to come here,
but they don't like to leave.

- Why would they?
- Right?

We have everything we need right here.

Everything? Food, water, clothing?

Natural springs provide
all of our water.

We grow our own produce,
hemp for our clothes, and...

Tomas, it's nearly time
for the sun salutation.

Don't you have a
schedule you must keep?

Of course, mama.

It was very nice to meet you all.
Pardon me.

If you want to know about the grounds,

you should talk to my
other child, Estrella.

Now, please, excuse me.

Okay, so they have their own water
source, they grow their own food.

Maybe the cause of the
combusting is environmental.

Yeah, or it's personal.

I mean, Seth and Cece don't
really seem like the type

to randomly ingest something.

Maybe somebody did it to them.

Okay, so, why don't you
guys go talk to staff?

I'll snoop around the grounds.

You don't have to snoop.
I'm happy to show you around.

I'm Estrella, the head gardener.

You're the gardener?

I am.

I also implement
agricultural techniques,

study soil evolution...

the usual bio-geochemical stuff.

So, you could talk to us
about the indigenous plants,

the organic residue
in the soil formation?

I can.

In fact, this is a very rich
area, botanically speaking.

The mineral composition of the
pedosphere is so interesting.

Do you wanna see?

- Absolutely.
- Absolutely.

- Come, I'll show you.
- Okay.

Unh-uh, unh-uh.

What is that?

Oh, this rock is all over the property.

It's not any soil additive
I've ever worked with before.

But when you get down
to the substratum,

you can see the sedimentary deposits.

It makes the earth silty,

which makes growing plants a dream.

Much more fertile than
our last home in Valencia.

Oh, you're from Spain?

Yes, it's wonderful.

I miss it. Have you ever been?

Yeah, we have to deal
with that giant...

book return problem there.

What kind of plants do you grow?

Crops, mostly.

Vegetables, some small grains.

- Wow!
- These look good?

They look wonderful!

Put them in the greenhouse.

- Thank you, Marco.
- Excellent.

We even grow kale,
which I personally find awful,

but everyone else loves
for some reason.

I love your enthusiasm.

For dirt?

Well, sounds like
it's not just any dirt.

It's not. Not to me.

But it's remarkable
that you can see that,

which tells me that you're not
likely a county grounds assessor.

It's all right. You can tell me.

I understand some people
come here as a last resort.

Yes.

Many people who come here are not well.

Some of them will never get better.

But while they're here,

they can have a quality of life
they could not have elsewhere.

- How?
- Just healthy living.

Good food. Spiritual reflection.

People find peace,
and that makes them better.

But they don't stay better.

That's not peace. That's false hope.

- Not false.
- It's not permanent.

That's just cruel.

I mean, to say that it's healthy living

and that's what's gonna save them?

I mean, how healthy is it
to have people burning up?

Burning up?

What do you mean?

Nothing. I should go find my friends.

So, no odd occurrences, no mishaps,

no accidental poisonings?

We're always very careful
with what we give our guests.

All of our aromatherapy
herbs are edible,

and they're great for calm and focus.

These aren't good enough.
Excuse me a moment.

The zen here is really disconcerting.

Bee balm, calendula, shiso.

We might even be able
to eat some of this stuff,

but why would you want to?

By the way, not a single garlic bulb

or hot pepper to be seen.

Nothing that can make you sweat

or spontaneously combust.

There's still something
that doesn't add up.

Something just seems a little odd.

- Stone.
- What?

What do you see in that door?

My reflection.

And what don't you see?

(phone rings)

Jenkins, I think I know why these people
have been catching fire in the sun.

Yes, so do I.

The Charleston victims'
ashes aren't human.

They're vampire.

I don't like vampires.

You can see that the vampire
ashes are microbially hexagonal.

I can't identify the
crystalline structure, though.

- Stakes and crosses.
- Holy Bible and garlic.

We forgetting anything?

Hey, Jenkins,
do we have any holy water?

Yes, of course. The swimming
pool is blessed regularly.

All right, we don't even know
if this stuff is gonna work

with vampires that
walk in the daylight.

Oh, yeah.

Working right out there in the sun.
One of them had a tan.

There's probably more than one.

I accidentally let slip to
Estrella about the combusting.

- You let it slip?
- And judging by her reaction,

she knew what I was talking about.

Which means she's a fanger,

just like our amateur
golfer and his wife.

Jenkins, we're gonna need

all the water in the swimming pool.

Okay, hold on, why don't we
just figure out what's going on

before we start sticking
people with pointy things?

But... vampires.

Who are trapped in their
existence just like you...

or me.

Did you know that Mr. Carsen
was in love with one once?

There could very well be more
here than meets the eye.

I agree with Ms. Cillian.

Vampire lore is in the
European literature wing.

Maybe we can find some precedents
on vampires that can tan.

So, Flynn was in love with a vampire?

Yes, she helped him defeat Vlad Dracul.

The relationship
did not last very long,

but I understand she was
an exceptional person.

I see. So the fact
that she was immortal

and Flynn wasn't didn't stop them.

Cassandra, there are things
you don't understand.

No, I fully understand.

It's not because
we're different species.

It's because I'm gonna die.

- No.
- Some day.

You're afraid to start something
because you're afraid to get hurt,

and that just makes you a coward.

Please, you're angry and...

Yeah, because you have all of this life

and you don't do anything with it.

Do you know what I would give for that?

You think I haven't lived?
You think I haven't loved?

There was a woman in whose eyes

I saw the sun rise and set every day.

Whose soul was the most
brilliantly perfect

of any I had ever seen.

You hadn't mentioned her before.

She did not choose me.

She chose another.

But I had already
pledged my heart to her

for all of the eternity,

and a knight can never break an oath.

Cassandra, you are beautiful,

and you will find your love some day,

but it just cannot be me.

- Are we close?
- Oh, I hope so.

I don't think I can
take another bug bite.

Flynn, if you don't like hiking,

why did you bring me out here?

I didn't bring you out here.

The clue in the ledger
brought you out here.

No, you did.

Charlene didn't know the
name of the Alaskan town

I lived in as a kid. You did.

You've been secretive, evasive,

you tore a page out of the ledger.

You, the Librarian,

destroying a book! So tell me,

why did you drag me out

to the middle of the Alaskan forest?

All right, the reason that I
brought you out here is...

(beep)

(music playing)

- There's more.
- (beep)

(whirring)

(buzzing)

Never mind.

It's beautiful.

Well, I promised you a vacation.

I know that I've been
a little distracted lately,

and you've been very patient.

"Saintly" might be the word I'd use.

Well, Saint Eve, I didn't
want another moment to go by

without telling you how
much you mean to me.

And I thought a little romantic meal

in a romantic setting,
and maybe a little hike...

that hike, why do you like hiking?

- Hiking is terrible.
- So you lied to me

and misled me just
to take me on a date.

Yeah, if you're gonna put it like that.

I love it.

Look at them working
out here in the sun.

You wouldn't know what they are.

We don't know what they are. Not yet.

Which is why I'm not
taking any chances.

Hi, um, Sofia, this is awkward.

- We were wondering...
- You're wondering if we are vampires.

And I was wondering if it was really
that county that sent you, Librarians.

Would you like some lemonade?

My family and I came here
from Valencia many years ago.

I was exhausted.

I'd been alive for centuries.

This was the most beautiful
place I've ever seen.

I wanted to meet my last dawn here.

So we swam in the pond,
counted the stars.

I said good-bye to my children

and waited for the sun.

- But the end never came.
- I was so angry.

Then I realized I was spared
so I can find this place

that lets us walk in the sun.

I had to use it for good.

We don't know how it works,

but we know that it only does
when we're on the grounds,

so we built a sanctuary.

Not just for our kind.

So everyone that
works here is a vampire?

What about the guests? What are they?

Food! I'm guessing.

Nunca. If they're sick, our
blood helps them get better.

We just take a little in trade.

We haven't killed anyone
since we set foot on this land.

What about Seth from Charleston?

He came here, got turned,

went home, and a week later
he was burning in the sun.

A week?

That's impossible.

We don't turn people.

If we did, they would have
to stay here in the spa.

If we leave the grounds,

we revert to darkness dwellers.

Okay, then why did they
last so long in Charleston?

You will have full access to everyone.

I want to know how this
happened as much as you do.

You can start with me.

I don't know who could be doing this.

I thought everyone was happy here.

I mean, I admit that I
sometimes miss the outside world.

But this place, it's protected.

It's our home, like your
Library protects you.

You're gonna miss it, aren't you?

The Library? Your friends?

(stammers)

I've spent five decades with people
who are facing their final days.

You have the same look in your eyes,

the same hunger to keep going.

This was Seth's spiritual and holistic

daily treatment regime
while he was here

- and everyone he worked with.
- What about his wife Cece?

She wasn't here for therapy,
so her days weren't structured.

Seth was assigned
to the composting team.

I'd start with that. Good luck.

Have fun at the composting pile, mate.

Wait, where are you going?

- The spa.
- No.

Which is where I'm guessing Cece
spent most of her unstructured time.

Also, I'm in need of a manicure.

Let's go. Come on, come on.

Milkweed?

Pollen, soil from the east garden,

soil from the west garden.

It's like they're taking
the entire spa retreat

and putting it into
individual bottles.

Hey, Jones,

this stuff is all over the grounds.

Why do you have a gem loupe?

Why wouldn't I have a gem loupe?

This stuff looks like Amora.

- Amora? You mean, moissanite?
- Uh-huh.

The silicon carbide found

in the meteor rocks
by Henry Moissan in 1893.

Synthetic moissanite is used
as a diamond substitute.

It looks pretty much the same,
it's just as strong.

Also, it's really sparkly.

But this real stuff is super rare.

Wait a minute. Jenkins said he found

crystalline particles in the ashes.

I doubt there's been a lot
of studies of how moissanite

affects vampires' sun aversion, but...

- I think they're doing one now.
- Boy.

I don't care if they are Librarians.

We are too close to shut down now.

No one's ever made it 20 minutes
outside the grounds before?

The last two survived a week on this.

Okay. Fine.

I'll shut it down.

But as soon as they are gone,
we break past these walls.

I didn't follow you to suffocate here.

Soon, the world will know us.

And they will all bow down.

It's called an oligodendroglioma.

I've known for half of my
life that I was gonna die.

Just didn't think
it would be this soon.

I always thought that when
the time came I'd be ready.

Turns out you're never ready.

- I would give anything...
- Oh, yes.

Last time we spoke, you were
at the anger stage of grief.

Now you've moved to bargaining.

You can't really bargain with a tumor.

So what if...

it could remain a part of you...

...but you could go on living?

Who's bargaining now?

No...

I'm out of options.

Conventional options.

We don't turn people often.

In fact, I've never turned anyone before.

But you, you deserve more time.

As a... as one of you?

So I'd be immortal?

You'd never age.

Never get sick again.

Your friends wouldn't
have to say good-bye.

I haven't told them...

that I'm...

running out of time.

You don't have to be out of time.

You could stay here.

With me, together.

Dr. Nassir. Neurosurgery.

- Oh!
- Where have you been?

I was at the pond with Estrella.
Interviewing her.

Oh, how nice for you two. While you
two are enjoying your nature trail,

me and this guy are trying to figure
out how Seth and Cece got flambéed.

Shh. We found a secret lab
underneath the spa, okay.

Somebody's been testing
the components of the land.

They're trying to come
up with a little formula

so these vampires can daywalk
anywhere they want to.

Give me the rock.

These little crystal flecks?
Moissanite.

This is the rock that Estrella
said made the soil so rich.

It's all around the pond.
It's in the ground.

Yeah.

Which means a meteor
must have crashed here,

caused the water formations and, oops,
accidentally protected vampires from the sun.

We heard Marco talking, okay?

They used Seth and Cece
as an experiment.

They turned them, pumped
them full of that rock,

and sent them out in the
world to be barbecued

to see if their little formula works.

- Who was Marco talking to?
- I don't know.

But it was somebody in charge... Sofia,

- Tomas.
- Both: Estrella.

No.

Yeah. She's the one
that knows the land.

She's a bio-geochemical engineer.

It wasn't Estrella.

Okay. Let's go talk to her, then.

No. Just me.

Not you two and your
preconceived notions about vampires.

Did you make a decision?

Estrella, do you know what this is?

Yes. I told you.

It's found all over the property.

It's a piece of a meteor, and it's what
allows you to walk during the day.

Someone here is trying to isolate
the daywalking properties

and they're using guests like
Seth and Cece as test subjects.

You think I did this?

No.

But I'd be surprised if you didn't know
about the moissanite's properties.

You are too smart not
to have been curious.

I had a theory.

Who did you share your theory with?

I have to talk to my mother.

Excuse me. I need to
speak with Dr. Nassir.

Um, Cassandra Cillian came in earlier
to have an appointment with...

Excuse me. Did you say
Cassandra Cillian?

I did, Dr. Nassir?

Are you family?

Yes. Cassandra is my family.

I was just about to
reach out to her again.

I haven't heard from Ms. Cillian

since we got the results
from the scans.

Scans...

Estrella: Mama?

- This is not what you think.
- We just got here.

Estrella: Mama.

Mama?

You did this.

(growling)

They didn't do this. They couldn't have.
It's not what we do.

Yeah. We were here to ask your mother
about the secret underground vampire lab.

The one we saw your herbalist in.

Where's Marco?

These Librarians are just trying
to make us question what we saw.

You don't know what you saw.

We didn't come here to hurt anyone.

Oh, no? Then what's this?

- Hmm?
- Dude, why would you bring a sword?

- Why wouldn't I bring a sword?
- Marco: Shut up!

You killed our mother?

They all did.

No. She was with me most of the time.

It wasn't her.

Estrella. We didn't do his. Please.

You have to believe me.

Let me prove it to you.

- How?
- The secret lab.

If it's there, then we're
telling the truth.

Yeah. It's built into the hillside,

just past the zen garden.

If there's no secret lab, we'll know.

We could show you.

No. Not you.

I don't trust you.

You. Come on, let's go.

- (grunting)
- (growling)

When we're gone, take them
outside and kill them.

(grunting)

This is a waste of time, Estrella.

Even if there is a secret
lab under the spa,

that doesn't mean they didn't do it.

Look, someone is trying to crack
the secret of the moissanite

to allow you to daywalk
outside the retreat.

What they haven't figured out yet
is that grinding down the rock

and isolating the particles
and ingesting them isn't enough.

Not by itself.

Wha... what do you mean?
What is it, then?

We haven't had a proper
kill in quite a while.

I'm going to really enjoy this.

Please tell me you have a plan.

Yes, I do.

Does it involve punching and kicking?

Yes, it does.

Never tie up a thief.

- Here, come on.
- Untie it, untie it.

It's the water.

Over the years, the water's
been infused by the moissanite.

You drink it, you grow
your crops with it.

You bathe in it.

The microscopic granules from the
rock have formed a protective coating

that's bonded to your bodies.

That protective coating
reflects all of the

electromagnetic radiation from the sun.

4,000 granules per microliter of water

reflects 93 lumens per watt.

The effects would only last 7 days.

They wear off without
continued exposure.

It's the water, not the rock.

No, no. It can't be that simple.

- Did you try the moissanite on its own?
- Yes, Yes. We tried everything.

- What?
- And...

Oh, my God.

It was you.

Estrella, listen to me.

- Estrella, por favor.
- No. No.

- Estrella, Estrella.
- No.

These guys are too fast.
I can't do this on my own.

- You got me.
- Glad you feel that way.

Wait! No, no, no!

(growling)

No, no.

Por favor, listen to
me, Estrella, Estrella!

I won't.

You killed our mother?

We were happy here.

We didn't have to worry about hunting

or being hunted.

It's in our nature to hunt, Estrella.

Mama wanted us to deny all that,

to stay here and meditate
on the same lawn,

smiling every day,
helping these people.

This Librarian doesn't understand.

I did this for us, Estrella.

Don't you miss it?

The world? We can leave here now.

We can be who we were
always meant to be.

I am who I was meant to be.

Time to taste Librarian.

(roars)

Both: Jenkins!

(growling)

Where's Cassandra?

Careful, hermana.
I'm more powerful than you.

I've actually had a meal
in the last 50 years.

You don't know power.

Ah!

Little girl.

You thought you could drive
that through my heart?

No.

Then, what are you
gonna do with it, huh?

Give it to your sister.

I love you, Tomas.

- Estrella.
- Cassandra.

- Cassandra?
- Step aside.

She needs a hospital, now!

You are so beautiful.

Uh-huh.

When the Library selected you,
it chose wisely.

Okay. I don't want to do this anymore.

I don't want the candles and champagne.

I don't want this vacation.

I just want the truth.

- Eve, I...
- Out with it, Flynn.

If you're leaving again, just tell me.

If it's something else, just tell me.

I'm tired of the secrets.

All right.

Yeah.

- There is something that...
- (phone pings)

...I can tell you.

We have to get home.

It's Cassandra.

I'm sorry I didn't tell you.

I can process Euler's
Formula for Polyhedra,

but I couldn't process this.

No need to apologize, and don't
you ever lie to me again.

I mean, even if I survive the surgery,

I don't know who I am without this.

It's what made me a Librarian.

No, it did not make you a Librarian.

The Library did,
and it didn't choose a tumor.

It chose a person.

Someone who I love very much.

It's time.

I don't know why I play
this stupid Sudoku anyway.

I'm trying to get these
last numbers for hours.

Surgery was intense.

The tumor was deeply entrenched.

Doctor, just tell us. Is Cassandra...?

Hey, you're awake.

Good to have you back, kid.

I'm not back.

I mean, without the tumor,
am I even a Librarian?

Oh, pish-posh. None of us have tumors.

We're all Librarians.

(conversation continues indistinctly)

You okay?

You're with the family now.

And you are a Librarian.

Gift or no gift.

1-7-3. I can't do this Sudoku.

3-6-7.

3-6-7.

That's it. I figured it out.

How did I figure it out?

Um, guys...

About that no-gift thing...

Congratulations.

They said your surgery
was a complete success.

Incredibly.

When you collapsed and your
friends rushed you off,

I didn't know what to think.

I was so glad when I
heard you were okay.

You're part of the reason that I am.

You reminded me

that what defines us
isn't what we're born into.

It's what we choose to be.

If you ever change your mind

and decide you want a
little bit of immortality,

this is where I'll be.

I think, ultimately, it wasn't
the right choice for me.

But you have to know
how much the offer meant.

You helped save my life.

I will never forget that.

I hope I'll see you again...

Cassandra Cillian.
