"There was like a flat line. It was... Still, to this day, I'm... That was it, gone. Frankie Wilde, bye-bye. Gone. And everybody was like that: Holding the baby. I've heard a story that he's running a record shop in Oxford. There's a story that he went to Fiji and then died of syphilis. But nobody knows. You know, I don't know where he is. He was another deaf guy with a deaf guy's needs. And he went off to a quiet place. Although, I suppose that wouldn't make much difference. [Ending shots shows Frankie teaching a class of children interpretive dance and then he is tapping on bongo drums out in the street, Penelope comes by with their kid and Frankie gives his change to a busker next to him, who raises a hand in gratitude]"
