Wayne Westerberg:
Outdoorsman. What's your fascination with all that stuff?
Christopher McCandless:
I'm going to Alaska.
Wayne Westerberg:
Alaska, Alaska? Or city Alaska? Because they do have markets in Alaska. The city of Alaska. Not in Alaska. In the city of Alaska, they have markets.
Christopher McCandless:
No, man. Alaska, Alaska. I'm gonna be all the way out there, all the way fucking out there. Just on my own. You know, no fucking watch, no map, no axe, no nothing. No nothing. Just be out there. Just be out there in it. You know, big mountains, rivers, sky, game. Just be out there in it, you know? In the wild.
Wayne Westerberg:
In the wild.
Christopher McCandless:
Just wild!
Wayne Westerberg:
Yeah. What are you doing when we're there? Now you're in the wild, what are we doing?
Christopher McCandless:
You're just living, man. You're just there, in that moment, in that special place and time. Maybe when I get back, I can write a book about my travels.
Wayne Westerberg:
Yeah. Why not?
Christopher McCandless:
You know, about getting out of this sick society. Society!
Wayne Westerberg:
[coughs]
Society! Society!
Christopher McCandless:
Society, man! You know, society! Cause, you know what I don't understand? I don't understand why people, why every fucking person is so bad to each other so fucking often. It doesn't make sense to me. Judgment. Control. All that, the whole spectrum. Well, it just...
Wayne Westerberg:
What "people" we talking about?
Christopher McCandless:
You know, parents, hypocrites, politicians, pricks.
Wayne Westerberg:
[taps Chris' head]
This is a mistake. It's a mistake to get too deep into all that kind of stuff. Alex, you're a hell of a young guy, a hell of a young guy. But I promise you this. You're a young guy! Can't be juggling blood and fire all the time!

That's your man.
Outdoorsman. What's your fascination
with all that stuff?
I'm going to Alaska.
Alaska, Alaska? Or city Alaska?
Because they do have markets
in Alaska.
The city ofAlaska. Not in Alaska.
In the city ofAlaska, they have markets.
No, man. Alaska, Alaska.
I'm gonna be all the way out there,
all the way fucking out there.
Just on my own.
You know, no fucking watch,
no map, no ax, no nothing. No nothing.
Just be out there. Just be out there in it.
You know, big mountains, rivers,
sky, game.
Just be out there in it, you know?
In the wild.
- In the wild.
- Just wild.
- Yeah.
- Just...
What are you doing when we're there?
Now you're in the wild,
what are we doing?
You're just living, man.
You're just there, in that moment,
in that special place and time.
Yeah.
Maybe when I get back,
I can write a book about my travels.
Why not?
You know,
about getting out of this sick society.
- Society!
- Society!
- Society, man!
- Society!
- Society! Society!
- Society!
Society, you know! Society!
'Cause you know
what I don't understand?
I don't understand why people,
why every fucking person
is so bad to each other so fucking often.
It doesn't make sense to me. Judgment.
Control. All that, the whole spectrum.
- Well, it just...
- What "people" we talking about?
You know, parents, hypocrites,
politicians, pricks.
This is a mistake.
It's a mistake to get too deep
into all that kind of stuff.
Alex, you're a hell of a young guy,
a hell of a young guy.
But I promise you this.
You're a young guy! Can't be juggling
blood and fire all the time!
- You've got to just kind of...
- Wayne, what are you talking about?
- What?
- I mean...
I'm talking about blood and fire.
We're talking about
trying to juggle blood and fire.
Who are you to be giving advice
to anybody anyway?
Who am I to be giving advice
to anybody?
- Yes.
- Well, it's nice to meet you.
- My name is Mr. Happy.
- Mr. Happy.
And Mr. Happy sometimes gives advice.
- Alex, please.
- I'm sorry.
Sometimes Mr. Happy...
Well, Mr. Happy is always happy.
But you know when he's happiest?
- He's not always happy.
- When is he happy?
Are you really gonna say that to me?
Come on, tell me about it.
I am going to say that to you.
- Now...
- Sit down before you hurt yourself.
One thing that you should try
to keep your eye on
is what happened
in the late 1940s in Roswell.
When a search of tax records
revealed that
Chris had given
his life savings to charity,
Mom and Dad became
what Dad called "mobilized."
They hired a private investigator and
notified law enforcement nationwide,
determined to track him down.
I just figured he'd be with gypsies,
far from the eyes of the law.
These are those free satellite TV deals.
You're the one who said it, Alex, not me.
You're gonna need something.
What kind of gun you got?
I'm probably gonna get like a.22,
I think. A.22 caliber rifle.
All right, then.
When you get your kill,
time is of the essence.
Now, the first thing you wanna do
is make sure
