Directly inspired and written by the transcript of 'The View From Halfway Down'.

"Beth! Beth! Are you there? Beth, I need you."

"Cameron?"

"Beth! Thank god! Thank god, Beth. Okay, Beth. Beth, you're gonna save me, right? I called you and you're coming to get me?"

"Cameron, why did you call me? I'm at the hospital. I can't save you."

"—You didn't pick up."

"Right."

"It went to voicemail."

"Yeah."

"And then I went back in the pool."

"It's too late. What's done is done."

"No."

"There's nothing I can do, Cameron. I'm not real.

None of this is."

"So, what do I do now?"

"Cameron, it doesn't matter."

"Well if it doesn't matter, can I stay on the phone with you at least?"

"Okay."

"How was your day?"

"Good."

"Yeah?"

"Yeah. It was good."
