[Edgar] 

What's going on? What happened? 

[Carrie] 

They can keep him on life support as long as the money comes in on time. His health insurance will cover the first couple of months but after that we'll be on our own. But I have the option to take him off of life support right now. 

[Edgar] 

You're not going to are you? 

[Carrie] 

...

[Edgar] 

Are you?

[Carrie] 

... It it comes down to it I will. 

[Edgar] 

You... you can't! He'll wake up! He has to wake up! We just need to give him a little time!

[Carrie] 

I know. I know. Look, we're going to get through this. Taking him off life support is the last resort. I just need you to not to worry about it too much, we have to take this one step at a time. You hear me?

[Edgar]

... Yes, ma'am. I understand.
