Thank you.

Hey, you all right?

Oh, yeah.

Thank you.

Um, excuse me. I know this is a silly question, but do you know why we're

I'm just waiting for my husband.

How about you?

Um, I'm not so sure.

Alice Hall?

It's about time.

Don't worry. Everything will be fine.

Angie Summers?

Right this way, please.

All right. Well, my name is Michael, and I'll be working with you today.

Okay. So you are Angie Summers from June 18, 1970 to a Christopher

and Rose Summers. Is that correct?

Yes.

All right. Well, I'm not sure if you're fully aware of your situation right now,

but it's our policy that I explain it to you.

This is the hard part. But, Angie, last night you passed away.

at New Memorial Hospital.

It was 9 .33 p .m.

I'm terribly sorry for your loss.

All right.

Now, everyone who comes through here has a very, very important task they must

complete. They have to choose one memory from their entire life.

This memory is the only thing you're able to take with you into the

Wow.

I don't even know where to start.

My advice would be to choose something that makes you happy.

Something that really makes you happy, actually.

And give that real, genuine smile.

Can you give me an example?

An example?

Yeah, like another memory somebody else has chosen.

Yeah, well, I guess if it'll help.

Just last week there was a woman who came in.

Uh, she chose the memory of her husband.

They were on this romantic getaway, and they just finished up a beautiful

candlelit dinner.

I can't believe they were able to do this for us. Dinner in the garden?

We have to come back here every year.

Well, I'm just happy that you're enjoying it, darling.

So, what should we do now?

Can we take a walk around the garden? It was so beautiful during dinner, I'd

love to see the rest of it.

Thank you for a wonderful weekend.

Everything has been perfect.

Well, anything for my baby.

Why don't we take this to the room and have a bit of privacy?

What kind of better idea?

Oh, I see, baby.

I see.

Oh,

my God.

So good, baby

Oh, my God.

Oh,

yes.

Whoa.

Oh.

You want to be?

Take these off.

Then snuck back into their rooms.

That is so romantic.

Yeah, well, do you know why she chose that memory?

Was it a special occasion?

Or maybe an anniversary that she wanted to remember?

See, that's what I thought at first, too.

And when I asked her, her answer kind of surprised me, actually.

She said it was to keep living.

Her husband gave her the...

abundance of life.

He was adventurous and would try new things with her and everything was

exciting, you know.

And she loved that.

So she wanted to take that with her.

What a beautiful memory.

Well, I hope it helps a little.

It did. Thank you.

There's just so many things that Jake used to do for me.

Jake? Was Jake your husband?

Okay, well, why don't we start off by you telling me a little bit more about

him.

I don't even know where to start.

How long do I have to share this memory with you?

As long as you want, really. As long as you can get the paperwork in by the time

the office closes tonight.

That'll be great. I just need a little time.

I'm not thinking clear at all right now.

Well, it's very important that the paperwork does get in tonight, so...

Please, please, be on time. I'll be here.

Thank you. Thank you.

Oh, um, don't forget your note.

Bye.

So how's your day going so far?

It's good.

How about you?

You know, except for my first assignment, it's pretty normal, I guess.

What happened?

He's just giving me a hard time. Don't worry about it.

No. Tell me.

Well, first of all, he refuses to choose a memory.

What?

Yeah, I know.

He said he doesn't want to limit his life to just one memory, so he won't

one.

Wow.

So he'd rather be stuck here than choose a memory?

What did you tell him?

I'm not trying to steal my assistant, are you?

No, of course not.

I got a meeting.

I gotta go. I'll catch you guys later, alright?

Do you want some coffee?

Sure, thanks.

You know, I never got to thank you.

For what?

For that note you wrote me this morning.

Hmm.

Hmm.

thinking about this for so long.

Okay.

Yeah, everything's fine.

So, did Angie choose a memory yet?

No, not yet.

She's got a lot on her mind, a lot to think about.

I'm just thinking I'm going to give her to the end of the day. Oh, that's good.

Any idea what she'll choose?

No, not really. I mean, most likely something about her husband.

I gave her an example of another lady who chose the memory of her husband.

I don't know, she seemed pretty touched by it.

That's sweet.

Hey, there you are. I'm looking everywhere for you.

Yeah, come on, let's go to the cafeteria.

I'm hungry.

Let's go.

Why not?

Hey, what about Sarah? Should I ask her to come?

Sarah?

No, it's fine.

Sure, man. It's no problem.

Yeah, don't worry about it. It's okay.

So you coming or what?

No, thanks.

I think I'll just go for a walk.

Okay, don't say I didn't ask.

God, Sarah, you're so stupid.

He doesn't even like you.

Why do you keep trying?

Oh. Hey, Angie.

How are you?

Um, I'm okay.

Are you?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Sorry. Just a long day, I guess.

Tell me about it.

No, I shouldn't.

Besides, you have a lot on your mind anyway.

It's okay.

You can tell me.

Well, it's like this.

Michael's a great boss and all, but I just want him to know I exist.

I mean, I write him notes to cheer him up. I make his coffee just the way he

likes it.

I smile every time he talks to me.

And... And it's just never enough.

Yeah.

Have you tried telling him how you feel?

No way.

Besides, I'm not his type anyway.

Then why keep trying?

I don't know.

Maybe one day I'm just hoping he'll notice all the little things I do for

Anyways, how's your memory coming?

I have a couple of ideas, but I'm still not so sure.

Well, maybe I can help.

Thanks, but I just don't even know where to start.

Well, why don't you tell me a memory?

No, they're stupid.

I highly doubt that.

Now, come on.

Don't hold out.

I told you about Michael.

Now, tell me about a memory.

All right, all right.

There was this one time he surprised me on my birthday.

It was a long time ago.

I was still in school.

I had just gotten out of class.

on my way home, and we were supposed to go to dinner.

Welcome to Chateau Jake.

May I take your coat? Yes, you may.

Here's our menu for this evening.

Why don't you take a second and look it over while I grab a drink?

Thank you, Mr. Waiter.

Start for the wait, ma 'am.

Here is a glass of wine to start.

Have you decided on what you'll be having for tonight?

Yes, I will have the slow -roasted chicken with the fingerling potatoes.

Excellent choice.

Be back in a few minutes with your order.

Is that takeout? No.

Well,

maybe.

I'm so lucky to have you.

Hey.

I was going to give this to you later, but since you're here now...

Happy birthday, sweetheart.

Wow.

He did all that for you?

Angie, you have nothing to worry about.

That was a beautiful memory, and you were lucky to have such a wonderful

husband. Really?

So you think this is the one?

I didn't say that.

I mean, I don't know what other memories you have.

Well, there's my wedding day, or the day we first met,

or a trip to Europe, or... Wait, wait, wait.

Slow down.

Let's start with something simpler.

Why did you choose that memory?

What do you mean?

Was it because it was a surprise?

Or the dinner?

Or the necklace?

I don't know.

Why did you choose?

Huh?

What do you mean?

Your memory.

What was it?

I don't have one.

When I got here, they told me I had to work for them.

They were hoping that by listening to other people's memories...

I would be able to find one of my own.

Wait, so you don't have a memory?

And Michael?

I'm sorry.

I didn't know that.

Don't worry about it.

Just find your memory so we both have something to smile about.

Thank you, Sarah.

I'm hungry.

You want to go to the cafeteria?

I'm actually a bit tired.

Is there a place I could take a nap?

Yeah, of course.

Just ask the receptionist. She'll set you up with a private room.

Don't be late for your appointment.

Michael hates that.

Angie, right?

I didn't introduce myself last time. I'm Alice.

Oh, hi.

And this is my husband, Joe.

Nice to meet you.

So, how's your day going?

It's going wonderful.

And you?

Still trying to figure out why I'm here, I guess.

Still having troubles with that memory?

A little.

Were you guys able to choose one?

Well, after we talked about it, we decided to make up a new memory.

A new memory?

I'll tell you about it later.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Yes, I can help you with that. Go ahead and sign in. Okay. And I'll tell you

where to go.

Perfect. You take the stairs up, second door on your right. Okay, thank you.

You're welcome.

Hey, Jake.

This is my friend I was telling you about, Angie.

Pleasure to meet you.

I'm Jake.

Would you still love me if I lost all of my hair and went bald?

Sure. Then we could shop for a wig.

Would you still love me if I had no legs and no arms and no lips so that

everything I ate fell back out?

No.

But we could still be friends.

You're working late again?

What about dinner? Everyone is expecting us to be there.

I'm sorry.

Babe, I promise you, once this deal goes through, I'll make it up to you. What

am I supposed to tell everyone?

We've been planning this for weeks.

Just tell them I couldn't make it.

I'm late. Let's talk about this later.

Hey, Angie.

You're here early.

Did you make any progress?

Sort of. I thought about what you asked earlier. You know, what's the reason why

I'm choosing this memory?

Well, I'm still not so sure.

What do you mean?

You know, what makes these memories so important to me?

It's the little thing.

What? Oh, I'm sorry, Angie. This is Paul. He works here, too.

No, what'd you say?

It's the little things. I mean, from my experience, from with people around

here, the little things that matter most.

That's it?

What is?

Sarah, do you think I could go see Michael right now?

I don't know. I'll go check.

Did I just miss something?

No, I'm sorry. You just helped me choose a memory.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Well, Sarah asked me why I chose the memory I chose, and you're right. It

is all the little things that he did for me.

Right, right.

Well, I mean, I'm glad I could help.

Andy, Michael said he'll see you now. All right, thanks.

Um, since you've been here so long and you've learned so much, how come you

haven't chosen a memory yet?

It's kind of a personal choice. I just...

I just really don't want to limit my life just to one memory.

Anyway, Michael's waiting for you.

All right. It was nice meeting you.

You too.

Is there anything else you need from me today?

No, that'll be it.

All right. I'll see you tomorrow.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Oh, you seem to be in a better mood.

You must have thought of something.

Yes.

Well, you know, I was going to pick my birthday memory. You know, Jake

me with a necklace and made dinner for me.

And then I started thinking about the day we first met and then when he

to me.

But then Sarah asked me why I chose these memories.

And then Paul told me that it's the little things that matter.

Wait a minute, you mean like, like... Sarah and Paul?

Yeah, yeah, I had a little talk with them.

Nice, okay, well, looks like it helped.

It did. So, do you want to hear my memory now?

Whenever you're ready. Well, it was a couple of days before our wedding, and

Jake had invited a couple of our friends over.

Damn, you still know how to grill a mean steak.

For sure.

What can I say?

I'm a natural.

No, seriously, though, we really are happy for you two.

Thanks.

Yeah, man, congratulations.

Thank you, guys.

And don't forget the rehearsal dinner tomorrow night at 6 p .m. sharp.

Funny, you know, in a few days, all of us will be married couples.

Don't remind me.

No, but she's right. We should all be so very lucky to have such beautiful

wives.

But in my world, you're the most beautiful.

You see, it wasn't about a birthday.

Or a wedding.

Or a necklace.

I was thinking too big.

Alright, then why did you choose this memory?

Because I loved him.

I loved all the little things he did for me. All the little things he said to

make me feel special.

It's the little things that I remember the most.

That's what our love was all about.

Is there anything else that you need from me?

No.

I think that's about it.

All right. So can I go now?

Yeah, you're free to go.

Thank you again so much for everything.

You're welcome. It was my pleasure.

Hmm. Hmm.

I forgot to thank you for giving me this.

Babe,

you awake?

Jake?

What's wrong?

What got into you?

I'm just happy to see you.

Me too.

Now, which one?

Hurry. I'm already late.

This one.

All right.

Now, don't forget about dinner tonight.

Eric's in town, and he wanted to go check out that Italian place.

Okay. That sounds fun. All right, baby.

Oh, I left you something in the bathroom. I wasn't sure if you'd be

not. Oh, okay. I'll go look right now.

I love you.

Thank you.

We all like it when you do.
