You wake up at SeaTac. S.F.O... L.A.X... You wake up at O'Hare... Dallas-Fort Worth... B.W.I... Pacific, mountain, central... Lose an hour, gain an hour... Check-in for that flight doesn't begin for another 2 hours, sir. This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time. You wake up at Air Harbor international... ...the aircraft has come to a complete stop. If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?

Rain trickled down through the plaster and the light fixtures. Everything wooden swelled and shrank. Everywhere were rusted nails to snag your elbow on. The previous occupant had been a bit of a shut-in. Hey, man, what are you reading? Listen to this. It's an article written by an organ in the first person. "I am Jack's medulla oblongata. Without me, Jack could not regulate his heart rate, blood pressure, or breathing." There's a whole series of these. "I am Jill's nipples." "I am Jack's colon." Yeah. "I get cancer. I kill Jack."

Home was a condo on the 15th floor of a filing cabinet for widows and young professionals. The walls were solid concrete. A foot of concrete's important when your next-door neighbor lets her hearing aid go and has to watch game shows at full volume... Or when a volcanic blast and debris that used to be your furniture and personal effects blows out of your floor-to-ceiling windows and sails flaming into the night. I suppose these things happen.

To begin tonight's communion, Chloe would like to say a few words. Oh, yeah... Chloe. Chloe looked the way Meryl Streep's skeleton would look if you made it smile and walk around the party being extra nice to everybody. Well, I'm still here, but I don't know for how long. That's as much certainty as anyone can give me. But I've got some good news. I no longer have any fear of death. But I am in a pretty lonely place. No one will have sex with me. I'm so close to the end, and all I want is to get laid for the last time. I have pornographic movies in my apartment, and lubricants and amyl nitrate. Chloe... Everyone, let's thank Chloe.

Marla's philosophy of life was that she might die at any moment. The tragedy, she said, was that she didn't. It doesn't have your name. Who are you, Cornelius, Rupert, Travis, any of the stupid names you give each night?

I'm onto you. What? Yeah. You're a faker. You're not dying. Sorry? In the Tibetan philosophy, Sylvia Plath sense of the word, I know we're all - we're all dying, all right? But you're not dying the way Chloe back there is dying.

It was right in everyone's face. Tyler and I just made it visible. It was on the tip of everyone's tongue. Tyler and I just gave it a name.

Wait, wait, wait. Whoa. Hold on. I'll tell you. We're gonna split up the week, OK? You take lymphoma and tuberculosis- You take tuberculosis. My smoking doesn't go over at all. OK. Good. Fine. Testicular cancer should be no contest, I think. Well, technically, I have more right to be there than you. You still have your bails. You're kidding. I don't know. Am I? No. No. What do you want? I'll take the parasites. You can't have both the parasites, but why don't you take the blood parasites- I want brain parasites. I'll take the blood parasites, but I'm gonna take the organic brain dementia- I want that. You can't have the whole brain. So far you have 4. I only have 2. OK. Take both the parasites. They're yours. Now we both have 3.
