Output: Freddy Gale Nicholson has been tormented for the five years following the death of his daughter Emily. Once a devoted husband and father, he is now an alcoholic who spends his nights hanging out in strip clubs and sleeping with prostitutes. Now the drunk driver who killed her, John Booth Morse, is released from prison. Freddy immediately reveals to his exwife Mary Huston that he is going to kill Booth. She begs him not to, and they get into an altercation that ends with her new husband throwing him out of the house. John Booth is now living in a trailer outside of his parents house and merely plans to go on with his life, even as he is haunted by remorse for killing Emily. At night Freddy arrives at the Booth residence, armed with a pistol. He clumsily breaks into the trailer trying to shoot, but he forgot to load a magazine. John calmly tells him he wont call the police and will let Freddy kill him, but asks for some time to savor his freedom. Freddy accepts, and gives John three days to live. John tries to live his life as best as he can before the third day arrives. He meets an artist named JoJo Wright at a friends party and he has a brief romance with her before she realizes that he cant let go of the mistake he made. He reveals to her that when he hit Emily, he came to her side as she was dying and she apologized to him for not having looked both ways. Freddy goes to Emilys grave and leaves flowers, but leaves when he sees Mary there. On the third day, Freddy calls Mary and breaks down in tears as he tells her of a terrible nightmare he had. In the nightmare, he is driving by his daughters school and stops at a crosswalk where children including a living Emily wait. He sees that John Booth is the crossing guard. Freddy then sees himself run over all of the children, even Emily. They meet at a diner, and Mary tells him that he is beyond her help; Freddy becomes enraged and curses her. After Mary leaves, Freddy gets drunk and starts to drive to Johns house. John waits in his trailer armed with a shotgun. Freddy is pulled over by the police en route to the house and arrested for drunk driving. Before the police can take him in, however, Freddy grabs his gun and runs away. He breaks into a home and hides in a little girls room. The girl guides the police away, and Freddy thanks her and leaves. Freddy arrives at Johns trailer and waits before he enters. John abruptly jumps from a corner with a rifle in hand. Freddy tells him since he is on the run, on his property, and armed, John should be able to get away with killing him. There is a standoff as they point guns at each other. John however drops his gun and runs away; Freddy follows him. After a lengthy chase across the city, Freddy catches John climbing a fence and fires at him. John is only superficially wounded, however, and continues running. Freddy follows him, until he realizes that John has led him to a graveyard where Emily is buried. John talks silently to the grave and finally says Your daddys coming. Freddy gives John the gun and cries over the grave, apologizing to his daughter. John takes Freddys hand as the sun rises.
