Rabbi Nachtner: We can't know everything. Larry Gopnik: It sounds like you don't know anything! Why even tell me the story? Rabbi Nachtner: [chuckling] First I should tell you, then I shouldn't. Larry Gopnik: What happened to Sussman? Rabbi Nachtner: What would happen? Not much. He went back to work. For a while he checked every patient's teeth for new messages. He didn't find any. In time, he found he'd stopped checking. He returned to life. These questions that are bothering you, Larry - maybe they're like a toothache. We feel them for a while, then they go away. Larry Gopnik: I don't want it to just go away! I want an answer! Rabbi Nachtner: Sure! We all want the answer! But Hashem doesn't owe us the answer, Larry. Hashem doesn't owe us anything. The obligation runs the other way. Larry Gopnik: Why does he make us feel the questions if he's not gonna give us any answers? Rabbi Nachtner: He hasn't told me. [Larry puts his face in his hands in despair] Larry Gopnik: And... what happened to the goy? Rabbi Nachtner: The goy?
