A scene from Elemental 2023

Wade is gone.

Oh, my daughter. [walks over to her for comfort]

He saved me. [stands up on her feet and approaches her father; tearfully] Dad? This is all my fault. The shop, Wade... [breaks down, sobbing softly] I need to tell you the truth. I don't want to run the shop. I know that was your dream, but it's not mine. I'm sorry. [holds up the blue flame in the lantern to give to him] I'm a bad daughter. [sobs]

Ember… the shop was never the dream. You were the dream. You were always the dream.

[feeling touched by what her father said, she hugs him; still sobbing]

I loved him, Dad. [continues sobbing as Cinder joins the family hug]

[As the family embraces tightly, Wade is heard crying distantly but is nowhere to be seen. The fire people turn towards the hearth, Ember stands as a drop of water emerges out of the debris blocking the chimney and straight into a pot. Furrowing her brow, Ember looks up at the ceiling]

Butterfly. [Nothing happens] Butterfly. Windshield wipers. Half a butterfly. [two more droplets appear on the ceiling and fall into the pot; smiles hopefully, realizing the situation, playing "The Crying Game"] An old man on his deathbed remembers the summer he fell in love. [several more droplets appear and fall into the pot, as it appears if it was raining directly into the pot; continuing] She was out of his league, and he was young and [laughs] scared. [even more big water droplets appear and move towards the center of the ceiling] He let her go, think surely summer would come again. It never did!

[Wade sobs even harder as more droplets fall into the pot, filling it with water]

You are perfect match. 10 out of 10!

[Wade sobs loudly while the downpour halfway fills the pot, as Bernie wears a confused look]

I don't understand. What's going on?

Just say something to make Water Guy cry, okay?

Um...Uh... You are no longer panned.

[tearfully correcting him]

Banned.

Banned.

[Wade sobs very loudly]

I want to explore the world with you, Wade Ripple. I want to have you with me in my life, forever.

[The streams of water slow, and the last drop falls into the fully filled pot, Ember peers inside, and two eyes appear in the water, followed by a smile, gaps in excitement as Wade's body takes shape as he stands in the pot] [astonished]

Whoa. [picks up shirt and smiles in embarrassment] Your, uh, chimney needs cleaning. [Ember gasps and pants happily as she jumps into Wade's arms, and a sizzling sound is heard; Wade and Ember stare lovingly into each other's eyes, and they kiss romantically]
