Fuck, did I … Think I found something.
Morning, Tom.
Happy birthday, Frank!
I almost forgot: I made you something.
Every big birthday needs a badge.
Aww, thanks, man. Appreciate it.
I bet you thought I'd forgotten.
What?
about going tonight?
Eh …
Look mate, I … eh …
I'm not sure about tonight.
You've got to leave this place at some point.
No, I wanna go, I really do.
It's just not easy
logistically.
There's a lot of maintenance I gotta do before the autumn.
Look! Please! What if you wanted to leave me something.
Like what?
Like a message … or … anything.
What, on the grave?
No, there's nothing on the grave.
I was thinking maybe...
in the grave?
Frank, what?
No fucking way!
But not knowing is killing me.
You've lost your mind in that little box.
I'm not driving four hours to the middle of god-knows-where to go and dig up your dead body you sick, sick man.
There'll just be bones now.
No, I don't.
Please mate, please! I've got a strong feeling about this.
I know it's something I would have done if I was me – which I am.
Say you'll help.
I've got nothing to say. We're not going.
Look, I … eh … I got work to do. You're coming with?
Why're you so sure you would have left yourself something?
Because I'm all I've got.
I had nobody. I had nothing. But with the money I got from the experiment I could have done anything.
If he'd taken that opportunity and done something with his life, then he'd want to tell me.
He would want the other half of him to know.
You know…
Wish you could have met my dad.
He had a lot of old stories to tell.
He was stubborn, he knew what was best for me.
That's why we moved out here.
And I know what's best for you.
Need to move on.
Got it good, yeah.
Tom! What've I got? Some old memories and … what else?
You got me, Frank!
I mean my life. I've done absolutely nothing with it. The other may could've gone
and done something with real meaning instead of rusting over here with you.
Yeah, I'm trying to help.
You're no help at all.
Well, try thinking of someone else for once.
Do you know what I got here? It's a letter from the bank. They're repossessing our land.
Good.
My dad's business gone, Frank.
I don't care. You chop shit, raise literally shit, you collect all the shit that
no one wants anymore and then you just sit on it. What business, you haven't sold anything for years?
I mean your life is meaningless.
I like what I do!
I tries my best!
You are the laziest person I've ever met.
What the hell are you saying? One: Who are these people you've apparently met?
You refuse to take a step outside of that gate. Two: Have you seen me?
All my mental work?
Oh, what a sound of a you scrums off people your whole life! And you've managed to continue your way after you died.
You just have to accept that your life was probably meaningless and shit, like most people's.
That I speak to people!
Like that delivery lady the comes here with a van.
We got a rapport
it could be a...
spark or something.
You're a liar.
You're lying to yourself.
Yeah, I'm done.
No wonder everyone who looks after you either kills themselves or throws you out in the skip.
Well, if you're not gonna help me you can fuck off you selfish …
Frank?
Go away from me.
Hey!
Yeah?
I was wondering that …
How are you doing?
You're free for a beer?
I got a pot of coffee on the go, if you want to sit and chat.
Ah … that's alright I … I still got some deliveries to get on with.
Oh.
Well, I got some friends coming over tonight, if you want to come …
Uh … sorry, I'm busy tonight. Some other time?
Okay.
We better get packed. We've got a long drive ahead of us tonight.

1995 - 2044
You were fourty-nine, when you died.
Okay. Tom, you ready?
Arh, this is so fucked!
What can you see?
Myself in here, it's just bones
Is there anything on my neck or around my head?
I got your skull here in my hands and I'm still thinking:
Jesus, you had terrible teeth!
Please. I was wrong. Let's go back. And what's the point, Tom?
I could I … think I found something.
Really? I knew it. What is it?
It's a...
letter.
I can't believe it.
I can't believe it, Tom!
Open it!
Okay.
Well, go on! Look at it!
Uh …
Dear
Franklin,
I hope one day you find this.
This isn't easy to tell myself but
The money I made from the experiment wasn't worth it
I've lived an empty life.
I know you probably wished I made the most of it but I haven't.
Please live yours differently.
Meet people and help them help you.
Move on.
Make the most of the time you have
and the extra time you've been given.
Don't waste it worrying about me.
I'm so sorry.
Regards, Franklin
Thank you, Tom.
