pork chops nice and thick maybe corn when it's in season and mashed potatoes with gravy now that's a proper meal food that reminds you of your childhood what my husband derek used to call a bit of all right steak i used to try and find them a nice cut when they'd asked for it figuring they deserve a little something nicer than chuck i'd do a good steak it was one of derek's favorites nothing like a steak spitting in your eyes but you want a steak when it's just off the skillet better off with something that keeps like a stew or a pot pie they don't think about that when they're ordering why should they not like they haven't got enough on the mounds already they always eat the meal you know i have the slightest idea i'm always gone by the time dudley gets back with the tray i don't think i could have an appetite know when i was about to die [Music] so so who's getting the meal tonight that boy who climbed a tree at playground and started firing killed 11 little ones three mothers and a nanny from guatemala don't beat the doe to death i remember him you know i used to take my daughter to that park until i realized that man is god's mistake but i know that's who we were cooking for i never would have come what are you doing in here they already let carla go so jeremy said i could borrow nancy from the big house for the night what's on the menu tonight miss maggie roasted chicken mashed potatoes and broccoli you ready in a little over an hour you come back then 30 years i can't believe you put up with these men for 30 years miss maggie let's not make a big deal of it please hmm i'm gonna miss you and you're cooking well good guy am i glad they're getting rid of this program yeah i'll second that now wait just a minute murderers rapists a bunch of coons and white trash eating their free government meals on my tax dollar nobody give me no free meal you watch your tongue this is still my kitchen i'm sorry i'm just trying to tell you how it is in his near you'll have to forgive him he wasn't always like that the years have taken their toll i imagine there'll be days when i'll miss deadly doesn't why are you calling it i'm counting moves slower than molasses i reckon even the stews must be cold by the time deadly dudley gets over to the death house and you can forget about them steaks hmm what do you think you're doing okay no need to make a fuss i'll get a newer one if it'll make you happy that's the last thing he's ever gonna taste use this one [Music] i hate to say it he's got a point you're cooking like it's for your own kin don't forget this man killed 15 people most of them little ones least he didn't request the governor's head on a platter i've gotten that one a few times mcdonald's was a popular one i'd have to order a head get a tax cab to bring it up they'd come in sometimes yelling ate up i doubt they ever knew who it was for i remember my first time ordering mcdonald's i wanted it to look like a nice proper meal next day dudley told me he'd thrown his food all over his cell i guess everyone has their own way of eating mcdonald's my daughter likes to dip her fries in her milkshake so the strangest request was from that lawyer who murdered his wife wait didn't you hire somebody no no he and his mistress murdered her for the insurance money asparagus fears to start two guinea fowl were wrapped in bacon and roasted buttered green beans and mashed celeriac maceleriak i'll be honest with you i had to look it up and creme brulee for dessert i wanted to go up there and tell him if he wanted fancy french food he better come down here and cook it for herself why you let those men walk all over you i beg your pardon come on creme brulee guinea fowl what is that now one last special meal ain't hurting nobody what about those i children there for them when they were done your potatoes are boiling excuse me for a minute so [Music] [Music] i am sorry miss maggie if i offended you it's just i think derek's last meal was an egg salad sandwich that's the trouble with hospitals meal orders are put in the night before so if you check in late chances are you'll get the meal of the person before you derek didn't get his room till the late afternoon he was so gray that's what i remember the most that and his breathing it's blank why are we going through all this trouble for him it's what he would have wanted what who would have wanted you're fooling yourself you know that i was like you i used to come in here and not give him two shits about who i was cooking for meal after meal death after death they are human beings waiting for their turn to die doesn't really matter anymore does it y'all still cooking that white mush over at polanski it's almost ready didn't say nothing about no pie you know as well as i do but every dinner deserves a pie and i know what you will be eating later tonight the man don't deserve you miss maggie that's just me that it may bring him comfort and peace before he goes to meet

your real job oh i don't i don't have a job i'm a student ah psychology i'm guessing um you failed an exam and they want you to get more experience sorry i i just realized we were talking about me instead of you it's all right well you're kind of right but it's not just like that i mean i i wanted to do something you know significant and this is it sorry oh this is your significance i'm not sure what that means that's life isn't it the search for significance that's the big thing some people climb mount everest you're talking to a stranger on the phone in the end well they're equally significant and insignificant aren't they everything and nothing in this life is important that's kind of uh do you really believe that i know that okay um so do you ever feel lonely or depressed you want to know what i'm doing right now what i'm sitting on the edge of my bathtub i've got three letters in my hand one is for my mom one is for my ex and one is for my landlord three letters it took me an hour now less than really now if that's not a sign to kill myself i don't know what is you're thinking about suicide thinking about it [Music] i don't really think about it it's not a conscious thought it's involuntary uh do you think you can hold on for a second i think i might have to um transfer you what transfer me to what the suicide department oh sorry i'm sorry never mind i ignore that hello hello do you have any hobbies but how did you get into psychology i like lego really i like lego too at least i used to can't save you so much anymore yeah well i'm an accountant who likes lego if that gives you the picture you know there lots of people that build with lego as a hobby i'm sure there are plenty of groups that you could join to you want me to go join a lego building group i'm virginal enough already but thanks all right oh like what poems mostly diary some songs that's great could you read me one i don't have any with me right now sorry uh well what about one of your letters you want me to read you one of my suicide letters i think so that's okay oh man sure this is the one i've written to my landlord i plan to put it under his door tonight with the key to my apartment he'll be the first to call the police because he gets home around eight my mom's letter won't get to her till tomorrow uh what's your landlord's name his name all right it's n-o-n-e yeah of your business oh sorry it's a good shot though did you you actually start writing none thought it was like noni like a greek name or something all right you're really not going to tell me your name or anything why because i don't know i want to be able to help you you don't want to help me you want to stop me don't confuse them as the same thing you still read me the letter okay it's not really a letter it's it's it's more of a poem i guess anyway i'll read it to my landlord seven years i've been demanding 24b seven years i've been paying my rent seven years i've kept my music down low and of those seven years i've spent a solid six years alone in my flight with an empty chair just for you but never the courage to tell you that so i never really needed to i always imagined myself at this age finally at peace in my mind i search for passion for beauty for meaning for rage but there's just nothing in there to find i think every minute of wasting a life of moaning and moping about has chiseled into my core with a knife and slowly has hollowed me out tears haven't got any point anymore food isn't nearly as good today is never as bright as before and night it doesn't feel like it should in this quick and invisible life i've led i accept i'm a loner two [ __ ] scared to be anything but the gay man you found dead an apartment 24b [Applause] what do you think that's um you're a good writer did you ever pursue writing no why not does it really matter now listen you're my first caller my very first i'm completely out of my depth and i'm terrified that you're gonna hang up and kill yourself at any moment i don't want that so please i can transfer you to someone else what if things get better you know what if things change you don't know me okay i don't know you you weren't working there to do something significant you're working here to feel better about yourself like you've got it all together how could you possibly genuinely care about what happens to me well for the last five minutes you've been reading off a script written for every sad second [ __ ] desperado that calls this line asking for advice on what loaner club they should join so they can kid themselves into thinking they've got friends i want you to give me a reason besides hey guy i don't know but hang in there and it just might get better to not kill myself today because i don't have any i've had eddie for a really long time and i get the feeling uh any written on your little script hair either why did you call here when i was a little kid i used to be scared of the lucky dip at the fair you know putting your hand in the box and not knowing what's inside feels a little bit like this i don't believe in god or in hell but oh no i'm not sure what will happen to me i'm terrified i'm so terrified i'm doing what i always do i wanted someone to change my mind and just for one more day i can't i can't change it myself it feels like i'm on a moving train and if i jump off now i'll be worse than ever please just tell me your name good luck with the rest of your course okay i i hope you find your significance i really do no don't hang up but um let me just you've been great you're really really great i have to go now okay uh well i think um i think um i i i think you might want to make some changes to your letter before you go it won't take long you can work on it tonight but you know you call yourself a writer you should really work on those letters polish them up what i thought your rhythm was off in parts some of the rhymes were a bit of a stretch it needs work um you're asking me to draft my suicide note yep that's really [ __ ] up you seem pretty dead set on the idea excuse the phrasing all right all right all right okay then call back again tomorrow and we'll see where it's at okay sounds like you just changed your mind sounds like i did sorry okay i'm back would you get a read-through it's weird i shouldn't be hooked up already sorry i'll be back in just one sec okay well yeah hello [Music] [Music] so [Music] [Music] thank you all for coming i've made up my mind what i want to do [Music] now bear with me if one is convinced as i am that the age of the earth is 4.5 billion years old then we can assume that the earth's atmosphere will be around the same age so we can say that when something is burnt it will turn into carbon dioxide and water vapor and it will be dispersed into the earth's atmosphere if something is burnt it is the purest way for the particles to become everlasting forever in the earth's atmosphere becoming infinite this is what i want to do i want my life and my memories to last forever once i'm gone you're asking for us to burn you no no mate of course not i'll leave that to the crematorium no my plan is there's five of us and there's five key things which have made my life so good love location home family and friends wolfie pick one what and obviously the last one's mine so who's got what i've got location dribble family good home friends okay leaving me with love where are you going with us yeah um what we did when i was first diagnosed as terminal you each said that you would do anything for me now i don't want to go like anywhere exotic or like skydiving what you can each do for me is to collect a single item that connects you me and the word on this piece of paper in your hand and then this week we're going to spend the evenings building a fire up in the field and on friday we're going to come back here we're going to start the fire we're going to make these memories a part of the atmosphere by burning them so you're happy to do it yeah man yeah i'm in of course i am we all are yeah i am i need to go but i'll see you later on the week to build this fire yeah all right cool wednesday evening works for me applaud we better shoot too actually yeah all right man i'll i'll see you on wednesday this is a good idea so now dude see you all right man see you wednesday uh mate you know you don't have to be like okay with all this you can be upset points that's that's allowed i know i'm dying there mate i'm not dead but besides in a few weeks if things keep heading the way they're meant to i won't be able to do any of this i just want to make the best of these moments when i still can dying doesn't seem quite real does it mean it's gonna feel a lot more real after this operation i mean i at least your hair sticking around for the long run don't don't even talk about it [Music] [Applause] [Music] so well it makes me lose my mind but i don't get it why everybody's moving so fast [Music] sometimes i still feel it's all where's the side of you come from [Music] pretty sure it's always been here assistant with everything that's gone on recently i don't see the point in holding back anymore would you think that i don't know death makes you braver i don't know i think it just makes me realize what actually matters i don't get caught up in who i want to be i just want to do what makes me happy how are you so optimistic why does this have to be a sad thing i'm okay with it so you should be too it's not as easy as that is it i mean when you're gone we're still here breathing stop it that's not fair i i understand what you're saying trust me i i think about it a lot but for now i'm asking you to do this one thing for me to turn me into a lasting memory a day that we all came together to do something special the fire this this whole ritual you'll remember this forever digs it will keep me here i'm not going anywhere [Music] but with the ashes from this fire and maybe even from my body when that day does come you can come back here and you can create something new something that will last even longer than you do you can come in with your children and family and you can say yeah that's for sid but you never met he stuck around to be a part of all of your lives too you're right i want to say to you all thank you for doing this like i knew you would but thank you mate you know we'd have done anything you'd asked yeah yeah man no matter how crazy all right i think it should be digger that we look out for now though i think he's really struggling with everything that's going on i mean listen sid it's strange for all of us knowing what's going to happen you know but it's got to be especially strange for him come here [Music] what's he done wait wait are you guys ready that's incredible [Music] all right guys so i kind of left my head a little bit late but i got a good one i noticed that one of the ceiling beams was really rotten so i throw something down us which is here it also supports the ceiling mate it's also my parents barn man if it comes down blood look mate just don't pull out being from ceilings [Music] location was a little hard i wanted something from here we've all grown up in sorry it's part of who we are so i've got this it's a map stolen from the archive that's fully illegal [Laughter] you you could have just copied it it wouldn't understand it so sid what did you get for love you all remember lily from school right not really well well i asked to meet up with her on thursday night no no not like that not like that all i got was a kiss oh that's not bad i got all of you kiss as well i thought we could all sign it as well so family i am i had to go to your parents your dad said it was your granddad's they know that he didn't leave you anything behind in the world when he passed but it's because he was waiting until he turned 25 give you this i asked them they said now is as good a time as i need to give it to me [Music] look sid make me we don't actually have to burn it if you don't want to no this is perfect [Music] thank you man thank you [Music] growing up an only child i found four brothers in one of you remember one year i got a video camera for christmas you all came over did our version of helmsd remember that we didn't know what we were doing didn't know how to edit so we just shot in chronological order standing up straight after being killed it looked ridiculous my word was friendship for me this tape has always been a keepsake of that versus a group but it seems like our group won't be the same again i can't keep everyone on this tape i don't want to keep it i want you to go [Music] right in here [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] so [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
