Jeffrey: I'm so sorry. You know, in the time that we... spent together, I came to think of Tammy as a daughter.

Cassie: And now you have a daughter of your own.

Jeffrey: No, it's not... we don't really even have a relationship. Maybe it's better that way.

Cassie: If Tammy meant anything to you, you won't waste another moment with Ava. Whatever's holding you back, Jeffrey, is just not worth it, okay? Just love your child. No matter what, love her.

Josh: Alan. Alan. We get it. Pay your respects and leave.

Alan: I want you to know how truly sorry I am.

Cassie: In a strange way, I actually believe that, Alan. But I want today to be about Tammy, only Tammy, so I don't care what you do. This is God's house. Everyone is welcome here, even you.

Reva: Well, it's a good thing it's not my house. Or I'd kick your sorry butt out of it.

Jonathan: Wait. What Josh just said was a lot, but there's more. There is more. I never went to church, even when I was in boarding school. Wake up Sunday morning, everyone was gone. I knew where they were, but I didn't go. You know, it's not that I didn't believe in things. It's not that I don't believe in things. Tammy would say I believe in comic books. I believe in stories of good and evil. Good and evil exist in this world. We all know that. Sometimes it's hard to tell who's who. Not this time. Not this time. Tammy was like Josh just said. Her soul was bright, and it was. I guess... I don't know. I don't know what a soul is. I've never seen one. I've never felt one. But if anyone had one, it was Tammy, because that's what it would take to see something in a guy like me. She forgave a guy like me for being a guy like me. And she taught me how to love someone, how you really love them. And I wasn't always a good student. Now she's gone from the world. We don't have her smile. We don't have her voice. We don't have that big, goofy smile-- pretty contagious. We can't see her. We can't feel her. We can't love her, when loving her would make us feel whole. I got married in this church a few days ago. It seems like a lifetime. I see the place we stood. I can see the candles that we lit. Went so fast. Wish I could have slowed it down, you know? Wish I could have stopped it, so I wouldn't forget anything. Wouldn't forget a single second. We stood right here. Now I look at this box with what's left of my wife inside, and the love I feel for her is mixed with hate. Like I said before, I am still learning. I will not quit. With her dying breath, Tammy told me to take care of our daughter. And that's what she would have been-- ours. That's what I'm going to do, Tammy, for you-- for all the love you gave me, for all the love you didn't live to give to our little girl. No good-byes for us, kid. You wait for me where you are. You save me a spot. I'll find you, no matter what. I'll find you.
