At the (very) end of the movie Hank is lying low in Tulum after shedding his identity. He doesn’t watch Roman sportsball anymore. He doesn’t drink either. He stares out at the Ocean, basking in the ultra-flux, similar to how he did at Coney Island.

Hank commits su***** at the end of the film. He doesn’t die physically, but he dies spiritually. This kind of death happens several times throughout the film, but in them it's never freely willed, merely externally imposed or "accidentally" endured.

It has a symbolic logic that must be followed to the end. The changes to the book material (like the race of Roman) aid this logic. Spoilers below.

Soon later we drove back. And that was the end of my entanglements with TPUSA.

Charlie quickly said "yes, that is something that needs to be looked into more". Whether this answer was in earnest or not was debatable.

Charlie and others were answering questions and signing books after the conference too. I sat out, but my brother was able to get a few questions in. One of them asked whether infant male circumcision was a problem that needed to be dealt with. He had been researching the topic at the time.
