Six Feet Under-Nate's Death (S5E9) Best Quality!

[omgcutekitty]

I will allwyas cry to this scene, and yes i'm a dude.

[AREALJERSEYGIRL]

You Tube can be dangerous when you start clicking around!!

I watched SFU years ago, but after watching this and the "BEST FINALE EVER- ANY TV SHOW" the tears are coming like I just watched it all yesterday.

I remember feeling so cocky and confident that because he was a main character and so important that he'd have his little surgery and all would go back to normal. Thats what they do on TV right!?

Did this get out on internet spoiling it for anyone? I was SO SHOCKED AND SAD!! gulp

[xinvinciblex]

Heartbreaking!

[PrincessPeach777]

like David or Ruth

[PrincessPeach777]

I'm about to be bashed but here it goes..

I liked Nate alot, he was the all around "goodguy" and he was generally kind to those around him. However, he never knew what he wanted and that annoyed the hell out of me. When Brenda told him that he just wants to be "Nate the fucking hero", back in season 2, she was right. He always wanted to be some good guy and made everyone else who he was in a knot with, look bad. He was too much of a confused person for me to embrace him the way I did others.

[SethTalksFilm]

"Dave, you gotta' try this! It's so fuckin' waaaarm!"

[Mogsthamisfit101]

I think that in this scene, Nate and David are dreaming of the same scenario, but with different perspectives. It starts off with Nate dreaming, and everything is calm and laid back, since he is willing to accept death. He's at peace about it. When the colour changes (around about 4:18), it switches to David's dream. He doesn't want Nate to die, and so his dream takes on a dark nature, representing his fear of death. The bit about the crack adds to this (his fear of the guy who carjacked him).

[Riqsuav1]

@Mogsthamisfit101 I totally agree!!! That was my perception of this scene also!

[Mogsthamisfit101]

@Riqsuav1 :)

[MrKing402]

what was he in the hospital for?

[Infammo]

@MrKing402

He had an brain hemorrhage caused from an earlier surgery. Doctors told him he'd make a full recovery. =(

[MrKing402]

@Infammo ahhh okay...yeah i stopped watching i think even before the first season was up just because started a new job and had no time to watch it...might have to go back and finish the series now

[austinap5]

ive never beed able to understand this scene.

[TheWithLyrics]

@austinap5 David is dreaming of what kind of brother Nate would've wanted him to be, and, in the last scene in the dream, the sea is probably a reference to death, where Nate is heading to, saying "This is what we came here to do." We live to die.

[TWheels94]

@BougnouleDeMerde Pffffft. Think you are talking about Claire.

[MrPhatSmurf]

i didn't notice til just now but when David says "you look tired" Nate takes a second and responds in a very sad/serious tone saying "I am". I really think the writers meant for that to be Nate realizing he's tired of the life he's living and that he kinda finally let go knowing he was about to die, even though many times in the show he's expressed how afraid of dying he was.

...but just a theory!

[fabian5002]

I miss you Annie :(

[XNancyxBoyX]

@BougnouleDeMerde Well thank you very much, you're too kind! Sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm female, therefore I can't be a "faggot" as you so eloquently put it.

The ignorance and arrogance of homophobes always amazes me. Whatever floats your boat, man. I'm not judging, but come on, don't give people who happened to like the character shit. Just let them be, dude.

[amandaNO457]

This show was pure genius.. I dont think there will ever be one like it!

[krisp8888]

That scene was chilling. That Dialogue is incredibly well written. "We've been waiting for this our whole fucking lives" " this is what we came here to do". Something tells me they weren't talking about a swim in the beach....Pun after Pun.

[XNancyxBoyX]

Fuck! I loved Nate! I didn't want him to die.

[KAMIKAZEinbound]

@XNancyxBoyX I agree. I think he was the character most like his father

[doobie7676]

the crazy part about this scene is, even if i didnt know the song in the background this wouldve been my favorite TV scene of all time. But strawberry latter 23, this particular version, happens to be one of my favorite songs that i just discovered a few months before finishing SFU. classic shit right here

[serhumano3]

@doobie7676 I also love Strawberry Letter 23, but I discovered it through SFU.

[MiaBratinovah]

Fuck nate

[Ottison]

One of the best scenes in the series!

[serhumano3]

@Ottison  It is, isn't it!

[MacaDonaldd]

"we've been waiting for this our whole fucking lives."

"This is what i came here to do"

so much meaning, so much genius

[serhumano3]

@MacaDonaldd Great point, I couldn't agree more!

[JoJoShabadoo314]

The title of this video is a pretty big spoiler... Saw it on the related videos when searching a season 2 scene... Shiiiiiet.

[smoothcriminal28]

this is the greatest scene in the history of civilized humanity... words cannot express what i felt watching this.... it was confusing, beautiful, strange, embracing, horrible, perfect... and other emotions that cant even be named.... it really affected in many different layers.

[Goodforrj]

man, michael c hall plays the best stoner character ever!

[heymisterg]

it was just a dream to back wen it was simper times them getting high a surfing at lleast that what i think.

[youngerjeezy123]

how did he die?

[Trollbaiter]

@youngerjeezy123 Brain hemorrhage from AVM defect

[Frannea]

Hands down to the best death scene ever seen in a show/movie.

[andrusy]

I think this dream is interpreting Nathanial Sr and a straight version of David(both who are dead in they're own way), and are leading Nate to the light(which happens to be a the same setting as for when Lisa was found dead).

[fallenangel8757]

omg.. need tissues :( so sad and Michael was well, hot lol

[lobo1como1yo]

regarding the caption, it was really sad. but not as sad as the first time Nate died ... then came back to life.

that was heartbreaking. and a damn good scare.

[aheisenbug]

the 2 people who thumb down need to be punched in the fucking face.

[borizovskimilan]

best TV show ever

[youngerjeezy123]

what happend did he get bit by a shark or somethink

[JKiNG945]

I forgot where was Ruth when he died?

[lobo1como1yo]

@JKiNG945 she was camping with hiram.

[JKiNG945]

@lobo1como1yo Ohh yeaaaa. I remember now. Thankkks.

[Terry977]

Michael C. Hall is un-fucking-recognizable in this scene ! He's such an amazing actor !

[silentbob8201]

So David used to dress like Shaggy from Scooby Doo, The more ya know, LIKE ZOINKS MAN.

[bigfisher42]

i can't fully understand this dream, that's why i find it the best.

whose dream is it? what kind of crack is it? why the father would join him as he's already dead? why do they get back their suit? why is it the reason they came for?

[loserwoman87]

It's funny, coz I was SO mad at Nate for what he did to Brenda, yet, when he died, I thought my heart just stopped. He's a great character-extremely complex and well rounded, but most importantly incredibly real. Losing him was like losing someone in my life.

[ThatsWhatSheSaid0012]

@loserwoman87 For some reason, I felt like he told her that because he knew he was going to die and was trying to make it easier on Brenda to let him go...just my interpretation

[loserwoman87]

@ThatsWhatSheSaid0012 I can see where you're coming from-he had a weird vibe on him for the entire episode-calm and reserved, no passion in him, completely so far removed from his usual ways of acting. He kind of knew in a way-for searching for something that'll enrich and complete his life, at the end it was only death that brought him peace. It makes him a more tragic and, on top of that, more interesting and fantastic a character. God, I could write essays about this show....

[patriots2185]

Wow,@PRE1959...you're a nut case dude. Nobody cars how you feel about a fictional character who obviously had a profound impact on your life. He is...again...a fictional character whose real name is Richard Krause. I'm sure he is living large laughing at your comments right now wondering, "who is this Fruit Loop?" Please, do us all a favor and go get a life you queer bastard, i beg of you. Oh an by the way, I am going to laugh my ass off when your family dies too.

[erinoftheyear]

@patriots2185 Actually, his name is Peter Krause. Just sayin...

[ag10v]

My heart dropped when I heard the flatline as he disappeared in the ocean and automatically thought of Lisa's body lost at sea. To those unsure of the dream, imo the title explains it all. Remember Nate said that ecotone is when two ecosystems overlap. Ecotone metaphorically explains the dream perfectly, Nate's dream overlapped with David's; they both dreamed Nate's last moments together.

[Brentrockafellar]

fictional characters make you pretty angry huh

[PRE1959]

I love it that Nate died. He was a selfish, miserable FUCK. When he killed that Bird I only wanted him to die of Anal Cancer. In real life if I saw someone attack a defenseless bird I'd beat the shit out of them. I know he was just a character, but wasn't it strange that he hated Lisa, and then after she Died he played the bereaved widower. I know dirty fucks like him who always want to make everything about them, and blame everyone for their fucked up lives. FUCK You NATE, Glad your DEAD.

[OMGCrackYay]

@PRE1959 ....... You need to calm down.

[wiiplaya25]

i saw the whole serires and have two questions, why does david get offered crack and why does it say nates dream when daivds the one waking up from sleep??? plz explain love this show to death(pun not intended)

[br7878]

@wiiplaya25 if you've seen the whole series then you will remember the episode where david got kidnapped and almost killed. remember the kidnapper smoking (and as far as I recall offering him) crack?

[wiiplaya25]

@br7878 yea but i thoght this was nates dream which confuses me if it has davids memories in it?? whtever thnx though

[mth03d]

@wiiplaya25 I believe much is up to interpretation, but at the end it cuts away to David, so it is possible it is actually David's dream. Then again I could be wrong.

[br7878]

@wiiplaya25 delayed response, I know but one explanation is that it's that they both have the same dream. notice that the camera zooms in on nate's face when the dream sequence starts but the dream ends with david waking up. amazing scene anyway

[ElvisLivesUpstairs]

I wish I had some gear!

[Ottison]

Um dos momentos mais marcantes, na minha opnião.

Esse seriado é único! Six feet under (ou A Sete Palmos, como era chamado aqui no Brasil) é mais que um seriado, é um marco televisivo!

Duvido muito que um dia alguma série de drama venha a superar SFU.

[raidensreturn]

michael c hall's best role, david fisher. and rip nate, i cried watching this again

[67675656565655656565]

@raidensreturn get a life fuck breath

[PRE1959]

@raidensreturn BURN in Hell Nate. You miserable prick. Always betraying anyone who cared about you. Glad Brenda ended up with your daughter, and happy before you got to shit on her again. David you were a filthy Faggot but at least you didn't intentionally hurt people and kill defenseless birds.

[Cristalship88]

who wears a suit on the beach?

[sk8erjp182]

dude im pretty stoned and im still lmfao at 1:52-1:58 and 2:09-2:19!!!

this would be a perfect dream to have before you die!! except for the thought of your father offering you crack! :S

six feet under is the best series ever created for television programing!!!

[jonathankelleryt]

Is Michael C. Hall the greatest actor ever or what? He is absolutely believable in everything he does, every time. Amazing!

[enigmarodrigo]

i cried with this scene :'(

damn..!!

when he said that he is tired to be fighting

[kylas124]

@enigmarodrigo I couldnt get out of bed for a week when Nate dies- god i loved this man

[PRE1959]

@kylas124 Why because he was A Bird killing selfish, fornicating back stabbing fuck, who didn't care about anyone but his own belly? I was so glad when he died and they cut his eyes out. Siox Indians used to cut their enemies eyes out so they would go to the next life blind. GOOD, now Nate can't kill anymore defenseless creatures, Episode 5x4 "Time Flies". just cause he was a miserable fuck. Poor Brenda, he was about to shit on her again when he croaked. I laughed. Thank you Alan Ball.

[PeterBluth]

In terms of costuming, Nathaniel (Richard Jenkins) gave them the easiest time. Every scene I've watched with him he's in the suit he died in.

[kilroyrichard]

The most powerful scene for me in the whole show was the one where Nate helps that guy who is dying alone and wants to be cremated in a cardboard box. I've been through episode guides but cannot for the life of me find the episode! Please someone tell me!!

[theliarintheglass]

@kilroyrichard It's in the second half of season two.

[BMWGGANTMSFU]

"The Last Time" is the episode where the young man dies, but I think he appears in the two episodes beforehand, "The Liar and The Whore" and "I'll take you"

[babygirl91580]

umm that the season he decieded to get the surgery i think season 3

[williamgascoyne]

Never saw this part it stops in this video around 4:25 for me

[MiguelAPeraltaJr]

Discontinuity around 3:00

David is holding the joint , when he yells "you are so f-ckin toasted man!" it cuts to nate and he is holding the joint instead.

[RxMinus]

DEXTER is so bad ass he can kills you even in his dreams when he's being a total queer.

[sodaisgood12]

Michael C hall is SO much better in Dexter!

[MCKRUSH]

Can't get into Dexter at all, but I dig SFU. Michael C Hall will always be David to me.

BTW: Anyone know what song they're listening to in the van?

[samhain6677]

@MCKRUSH really, cause i'm addicted to that shit and I don't even have cable, that's how much tv I like to watch

[theliarintheglass]

@sodaisgood12 I'm sorry, but no way. Michael C. Hall is really great in Dexter, but he has more range as David Fisher. He expresses a hell of a lot more emotion.

[TheMymaJane]

Well, of course he expresses more emotion as David Fisher. Dexter is a serial killer, a sociopath...he has no emotion. The fact that he cannot express "feelings" is a common focus of the show and his inner dialogue. He's incredible as Dexter!

[felps22]

"Nathaniel Samuel Fisher, Jr.

1965 - 2005"

That still hurts... really deep :(

[jobigs15]

BEST SHOW EVER! PERIOD

[pixargod]

Such a sad moment in the series at least nate's father was there at his passing even though he only appeared in a dream sequence. I like how he turned out to be the driver in the van.

[leoadrian92]

nate didn`t enter to the bus in the 2nd season, thats why he survived...

in this case he enter into the beach...he hughs the death.

...

richard jenkins (nathaniel fisher, father) is so great, a fuckin`cool man..

[NCISBiGtime]

I think nate is that type of character that started his life too late, and that's why he's so a damn great character. I mean, he reconnects with his family and starts a brand new life into the world of brenda because his father died, he faces parenthood and marriage, and then the tragedy of lisa's death that really turns him around, and just when it would seem he starts to take his life the way he really wants, he dies. anywhow, great scene, great show.

[Kryptonian250]

Very well done! The saddest most memorable death in Six Feet Under, Claire's is after his.

[namezryan]

love watching 6 feet under with my dad....

i got the collection!

[vainerpaper]

this show had the most amazing dream sequences

[Raffinator]

Dude change the title!!! I saw this title while watching promos for the second season after finishing the first season and it gave it away for me!!! SPOILER

PLEASE CHANGE IT

[ptl1143]

I just finished watching it all on demand. Do yourself a favor and never look for anything about a show on You Tube until you've seen it all. Honestly, you'll get caught with your pants down eventually.

[Raffinator]

Regardless, he should change the title, man.

[Deadlywulf7]

Best scene of the whole series, nice vid

[bolinhamarela]

do you know the name of the music on the car scene?

[serhumano3]

O nome da musica e "Strawberry Letter 23" por The Brother Johnson. Tenho a musica se quiser.

[andmataren]

I kinda felt Nate's death was healthy for the family. He was a complex person and some fans loved him alot but I always thought of him as rather poisonous. His death brought the family together, freed Brenda from him, and also freed him from himself somehow. It was sad because loss is always sad, but it was also a new beginning. Everyone came out stronger. I wonder if any show ever will be able to top this one in quality and acting. It's a complete masterpiece.

[LuckyJrEskie]

@andmataren I've yet to see anything top SFU, I'm sorry to say. Breaking Bad is the best thing on cable now, although not even in the same league as this.

[illuminez]

@andmataren Very interesting analogy. I never thought of it that way -- thanks for the insight.

[Goodforrj]

@andmataren I couldn't disagree with you more. no death is healthy for a family

[MiaBratinovah]

@Goodforrj Nate's death was healthy. He was a selfish bastard.

[Jamestownwill]

Well, maybe Nate died... but I think that was just about the best way you could hope to go, happy and totally unaware of it.

[pixargod]

you know what the last thing he said to brenda before he died. He coldly told her he wanted a divorce when she was trying to forgive him for his infidelity with george's daughter.

[bottlecapsandgorilla]

lol

[pixargod]

it's true.

[TheRealBladeRunner]

Too quiet..

[vanityfair44]

ill never forget this scene...wonderful.

[Wapku888]

10/10 Best Ever !
