HOMELESS MAN RUNS 100 Miles To SAVE BILLIONAIRE | Dhar Mann Bonus!

Excuse me. Sorry. Excuse me. Can I use your phone? It's important. I just need it for... Hi. I'm so sorry. Can I use your phone, please? It's urgent. It would just be for one phone call. I promise. Please. Sir, can I use your phone? It would just take a second. It's important. Sir, can you please help me? I'm sorry. I don't have any cash on me. No, I don't need... I just need a phone number for a hospital. Can you look that up, please, for me? Sure. Thank you. Thank you. It's St. Mary's in Santa Barbara. All right. Here it is. You ready? Just... Sir, can I use your pen, please? It's just for... Just for... Thank you. Yes. Ready. 805. 5. 555. 8754. Thank you. Can I use your phone just to call that number? I'm sorry, mate. My ride's here. It would just be... It's... Hey. St. Mary's? Yes. I need to know the status of one of your patients, Jordan Rapp. I'm sorry, sir. Can you give me just a general update? It's important. We can't do that. Please. I... I need to know. I'm sorry, sir. But I can tell you this. If you really need to speak with Mr. Rapp, I'd find a way to get to Santa Barbara in the next 48 to 72 hours. Thank you. Ma'am, spare change, please? Thank you. Thank you very much. Hi. One ticket to Santa Barbara, please. It's 1779, right? Yes, but... Oh. Okay. You can buy a ticket, but the bus to Santa Barbara is down for maintenance. For how long? At least three days. It's a mess. No, but... That's too late. Um... I... I don't know what to tell you. Next? Just under a hundred miles. Are you okay? Yeah, I'm fine. I'm, uh, just... I'm out of shape. I've been running on a bad knee for a while. From where? From, uh, L.A. Going somewhere in particular? I know. I ask a lot of questions. It's because I want to be a reporter one day, so questions are kind of my thing. I'm heading to Santa Barbara. All the way from L.A.? Wow. That's a long way to run. I'm aware. Why not take a bus? I tried. I tried that. But it wouldn't get me there in time. In time for what? It's a long story. You'll get nowhere else to be. I'm trying to get to someone who's very sick. Before... Well, before it's too late. From what I've heard, I don't really have that much time. Sorry to hear that your friend is sick. No, he's not my... He's not really my friend. I haven't even talked to him in years. Then why are you so desperate to see him? It's complicated. I'm 17. Complicated is my life. He's someone that I wronged. I'm gonna need to ask his forgiveness before it's too late because if I don't make it in time, it's gonna hang over my head for the rest of my life. My mom always says asking for forgiveness is only half the battle. The other half is learning how to forgive ourselves. She sounds like a smart lady. I really wish I could help you out, but I don't try. But I do have these. If you were wrong like that, you would need it more than me. Really? Thank you. I should probably get going. It was really nice to talk to you. Same. Good luck. Hey, what's your name? Nick. What would inspire a man to run over a hundred miles by foot? I'm not sure, but I'm going to find out. I'll need these back after your second round. Can I help you? Yes, please. I need to see Mr. Rapp. Jordan Rapp. He's urgent. Yeah, well, that is impossible. Why not? Look, I don't know what kind of scam you're running here tonight. Perhaps one of the papers offered you cash to get a photo of Mr. Rapp. You don't understand. It's not that- Oh, but I do understand. You read in the papers that we have a billionaire patient, so you decided to come in and beg him for a piece of his fortune while he lays on his deathbed. But hear this. It is not happening. Not on my watch. It is not like that, okay? Sir, I already said no. You need to- If you would just listen to me! Security, to the front desk. Immediately. Please. I need to see him. Please listen. You don't understand. I need to see him. Get him out of here. Now! Sir? Sir? Sir? Hello? Sir? What are you doing? I already told you not to be in here. Please, I need to speak to him. It's important. You know what? Enough of this nonsense. I am calling the police and letting them deal with you. What's going on here? Mr. Rapp, I am so sorry. Please go back to sleep. I am dealing with a crazed fan of yours. I'll get him out of here. Let's go. Wait, wait, wait. I've been looking for you for so long. You know this man? Yeah. He's my son. Your son? I haven't seen him for over 20 years, but I know my boy anywhere. I'm sorry that I came. I know that I'm probably the last person that you want to talk to right now, but I know you hate me. But when I found out what was happening, I had to call him. No, no. It's me who needs to apologize. I don't hate you. I never hated you, even when I said I did. I just didn't know how else to get through to you. Come over here. I'm glad you came, son. When you're laying here, waiting to die, you do a lot of thinking about your life, especially the regrets. Biggest regret in my entire life, without exception, was pushing you away. I should have done more for you, tried to understand what you were going through. I should have been a better father. I'm so sorry, son. I'm so sorry. No, dad. It's not your fault. I was in a dark place. I was lost. I had no control, and I didn't even care that I was hurting you. I didn't care that I was hurting everyone that I loved, all my family. I didn't care. All I cared about was finding my next fix. You were right. You were right to push me away. I was going to embarrass you. Like you said, I was going to embarrass the company. I was. I could have ruined everything for you, so I don't blame any of it on you, okay? I need you to know that. I don't blame you for any of it. You were never an embarrassment to me. Telling you that was wrong of me. I'll regret that for the rest of my life. Truth is, I love you, son. I've never stopped loving you. I love you, too. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry it took me so long to fix this. You're here now, and this is the best gift I've ever gotten. Be honest with me, okay? Is he... What's his prognosis? Well, he has a rare blood disease, and without a transfusion, I'm afraid he's not going to make it through the week. Well, why isn't he getting a transfusion? Well, we haven't had any luck finding a donor. What about my blood? I'm his son, right? So I should be a match. We can check, of course, but even as his son, it's highly unlikely. That's how rare his blood type is. Well, I have to try. Come with me. I'm standing here with Cindy Walker, the online journalist that broke the incredible story of Jordan Rapp's estranged homeless son running 100 miles to be at his ailing father's bedside. Cindy, how did you stumble on this story? I've always had a knack for finding a good story, but this time I was just in the right place at the right time. After a little digging into Mr. Rapp's family history, I was able to identify Nick as his son and piece together what was happening. And what was happening was truly amazing. Nick not only got to his father's bedside on time, it turns out he was a viable donor. In the end, Nick saved his father's life. I'm just glad Mr. Rapp and his son Nick got a chance to reconnect. What do you think inspired Nick to run all that way to reconnect with his father after all these years? He told me, actually. Nick said he needed to ask for forgiveness before it was too late. Forgiveness. Is that right? And I told him what my mom always says, asking others to forgive us is only half the battle. The rest is learning how to forgive ourselves. I just hope Mr. Rapp and his son both found what they were looking for. Me too. I'm so glad we got together, kid. I'm so glad you're here. It's good to be home.
