the scene in which he knows he is going back to his real life and is saying goodbye to his kids for the last time. Sure Kate will be there, but the gut wrenching idea that he won't see his kids anymore is just as bad as them dying. That's tough.
shareI agree! "just a glimpse"
I also love the scene when he's watching himself on Kate's birthday and it clicks that he loves her in his alternate life; he loves the life that they'd built together. Good stuff.
"Do you even remember what you came here to find?"
Just realised Annie is a very young Grace Florrick from 'The Good Wife'
shareI just watched this movie again and it does move me every time I watch it. I agree that last scene when he says goodbye is emotional. He just reached the point of falling in love with his kids, and then they're going to be gone. I have a four year old son and I choke up even now as I type this thinking about him.
shareI agree about the kids. But since it is only a "glimpse", I believe they will have kids and they will be Annie and Josh.

Agreed. And when he's trying everything in his power to stay awake on the chair. *beep*, it's just sad.
shareAgreed. I cry every time during that part. To think of your kids never existing...
shareI definitely agree that in that last night scene saying goodbye to his kids is very sad, because he at that point (very unlike earlier on), really started feeling they were really his (of course in his alternate reality they were) It was really hitting in then just when he had to go back. But that was one of the main points of the glimpse, he wasn't gonna go back until he had that special moment. If his mindset stayed where it was before, with his heart and soul not wanting to be there, he would've remained in that reality until he got to that moment. It's very difficult, but it was the point of his quest. It was a spiritual learning and growing thing.
