Days。〃 Beautiful; dramatic black and white representations of love and passion; loneliness and pain; and union。 On the 
front page there reads an inscription 〃FOR F。〃   
ROBERT (V。O。) 
〃There is a pleasure in the pathless woods。。。 There is a rapture on the lonely shore。。。 There is society where none intrudes。。。 By the deep sea and music in its roar。。。 I love not man the less; but Nature more。。。 From these our interviews; in which I steal。。。 From all I may be; or have been before。。。 To mingle with the Universe and feel。。。 What I can ne'er express; yet cannot all conceal。〃 
The quote is Byron's。 She smiles with pride as she cries。   
CUT TO:   
EXT。 IOWA LAKEFRONT … EARLY MORNING 
Michael sits with his arm around Carolyn as they look out over the lake。 The notebooks are closed; but Francesca's 
narrations continue over the next few scenes。   
FRANCESCA (V。O。) 
There has not been a day since that I have not thought of him。 When he said we were no longer two people; he 
was right。   
INT。 JOHNSON BEDROOM 
Carolyn; looking through her mom's closet; finds the summer dress she bought in Des Moines to wear for Robert。   
FRANCESCA (V。O。) 
We were bound together as tightly as two people can be。 If it hadn't been for him; I don't think I would have lasted on the farm all these years。 Remember that dress of mine you wanted; Carolyn  the one you said I never wore。 Well; I know I was silly。 But to me; it was as if you were asking to wear my wedding dress to go to the movies。 
Carolyn smiles as she holds the dress before her。   
INT。 MOTEL … DAY 
A tired Michael finds his way through the motel to his room。   
FRANCESCA (V。O。) 
After reading all this; I hope you can now understand my burial request。 It was not the ravings of some mad old lady。 I gave my life to my family。 I wish to give Robert what is left of me。   
INT。 MOTEL ROOM 
Michael enters to find his two children watching TV and an angry Betty folding clothes。   
CHILDREN 
Hey; Dad! 
He looks at them lovingly; then at Betty who angrily motions for him to follow her into the bedroom。 
She slams the door behind him and talks in a irate whisper。 
BETTY 
You have been out all night long! Do I have a right to ask where you've been or is this a family secret? 
Michael just looks at her。 He gently takes her hand。   
MICHAEL 
No。 No more secrets。 
He kisses her hand。 Betty is floored。   
MICHAEL (cont'd) 
Do I make you happy; Betty? 
(she is stunned) 
Because I want to。 I want to more than anything。 
He gently kisses her cheek then embraces her。 Betty  for the first time in her life  is utterly speechless。   
INT。 JOHNSON BEDROOM 
Wearing her mother's dress; Carolyn sits on the bed holding the phone; waiting for Steve to pick up。 In her other hand; 
she holds the divorce lawyers card。   
CAROLYN 
(on the phone) 
Hi; Steve? It's me。 Good。 You?。。。 Listen; we have to talk。。。 Well; how about you?。。。 Uh; no  I've decided I'm going to stay for a while。。。 I don't know how long。。。 No; I won't be coming back。。。 I'm not angry; Steve。 I'm not angry at all。 
(smiles)   
CUT TO:   
EXT。 ROSEMAN BRIDGE … DAY 
Michael and his family stand beside Carolyn and a Priest。   
FRANCESCA (V。O。) 
〃I gave Lucy his photography book。 If you're interested; take a look。 If my words still leave something unclear; perhaps his pictures can illuminate。 After all; that's what an artist does best。。。 〃 
Michael receives the urn from the priest。 He and Carolyn walk away from the group towards the bridge。 They stop。 Carolyn 
removes the lip。 Michael sets his mother's ashes free。   
FRANCESCA (V。O。) 
〃I love you both with all my heart。 Do what you have to; to be happy in this life。 There is so much beauty。〃
