- CU to Cooper's face. He is crying so hard that his eyes and skin are red.
- Now we are on the other side of the TV after Murph finished her message, she turns the video camera off and gets up, crying (but she didn't let Cooper see her crying on the other side). She gets out of the room and goes do something else. She is at NASA, she works there and is trying to bring the Father back.
