Anyway, uh, Donny,

- No, no. M-maybe later.
- Okay.

So, anyway, about a month
into my sentence,

[ Gasping ]

307
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,535
[ Earl narrating ]
turns out I didn't need the gag.

308
00:18:55,568 --> 00:18:58,471
Forty years of smoking had taken
away her ability to scream.

309
00:18:58,505 --> 00:19:01,441
All right, fine. I'll quit.

310
00:19:01,474 --> 00:19:03,476
That's my girl.

311
00:19:06,913 --> 00:19:09,682
[ Earl narrating ] quittin'
smoking is a lot like prison.

312
00:19:09,716 --> 00:19:12,885
If you can get through the first three
days, you've got a fighting chance.

313
00:19:19,592 --> 00:19:21,761
First we tried the tapes.

314
00:19:21,794 --> 00:19:24,431
[ Man on tape ]
i don't want to die.

315
00:19:24,464 --> 00:19:27,500
I don't want to die.
I don't want to die.

316
00:19:29,702 --> 00:19:31,504
[ Earl narrating ]
then we tried the patches.

317
00:19:36,976 --> 00:19:40,347
Someone told us to try
carrot sticks as a substitute,

318
00:19:40,380 --> 00:19:42,382
but we couldn't get
the damn things to light.

319
00:19:52,292 --> 00:19:56,896
After some laughter, some tears
and a lot of burnt carrots,

320
00:19:56,929 --> 00:19:58,931
together we battled
our addiction, and we won.

321
00:20:11,811 --> 00:20:14,847
And even though we started out
as strangers, by the end,

322
00:20:14,881 --> 00:20:17,917
I felt like I knew Donny's mom
as well as I knew my own.

323
00:20:17,950 --> 00:20:22,422
Thank you, Earl. Thank you...
Donny's mom.

324
00:20:30,830 --> 00:20:33,300
[ Earl narrating ] it was
hard, but it was worth it.

325
00:20:33,333 --> 00:20:35,702
We gave each other life.

326
00:20:35,735 --> 00:20:39,372
She's gonna get those extra years
with her son that she wanted,

327
00:20:39,406 --> 00:20:41,841
and I just might get
a few extra years myself.

328
00:20:41,874 --> 00:20:44,577
It's hard to believe we got all
that in just three little days.

329
00:20:49,015 --> 00:20:52,619
Unfortunately, there are other things
a person can get in three days.

330
00:20:54,854 --> 00:20:59,526
I wrote up a new will, joy. You can kill
me, but there ain't no money in it.

331
00:20:59,559 --> 00:21:01,461
