00:00:00Excuse me, it's okay.
00:00:02It's okay. It's okay, it's okay.
00:00:05It's okay.
00:00:07Let me help her back.
00:00:30It's okay, it's okay.
00:00:33Maruzella, Maruzella.
00:00:42Vedi, questo è Napoli.
00:00:44Napoli è pieno divertimento.
00:00:46Ci sono posti per divertirti e posti che ci sono brutti.
00:01:00Alla prossima.
00:01:06I'm looking for the concert.
00:01:07And then you drive right by it.
00:01:09There it is.
00:01:13Very funny.
00:01:23I think it's gonna be good.
00:01:25Must be.
00:01:30Il traffico di Napoli.
00:01:33Non-recommand, non-mumoni.
00:01:35Che zza si va al primo posto.
00:01:43Shit
00:01:45What?
00:01:46I can't buy my wallet.
00:01:51Are you a Lusie Pace?
00:01:52No
00:01:53Lusie!
00:01:54Si.
00:01:55Somewhere?
00:01:56Oh, no way.
00:02:12She's lost her purse, her purse.
00:02:20Just give her a minute?
00:02:21Wait a minute.
00:02:23I don't know anything.
00:02:25I don't know anything.
00:02:33Where did you have it lost?
00:02:35No.
00:02:36The train station, I think?
00:02:38The exchange group?
00:02:42Oh, Jamie. I'm sorry.
00:02:47That bastard at the train station started when you dropped all your stuff.
00:02:51This is 170, not 70.
00:02:55Where do we need to go?
00:02:57We need 70.
00:03:10Here we go.
00:03:11Shhh.
00:03:12Shhh.
00:03:13Shhh.
00:03:14Shhh.
00:03:15Shhh.
00:03:20Shhh.
00:03:21Is this it?
00:03:22Thank you, Sam.
00:03:23Yes, I have a credit card, the number is on file on my computer, yes, I have them here.
00:03:52Okay, five, five, three, three, seven, six, four, five, eight, seven, eight, seven, nine, one, five, seven, five, seven, yeah, expires 12.15, no, she'll definitely need another card sent out immediately, we're here for two weeks, no, I'm working here, yes, I'll hold.
00:04:23You love how they ask, as if I have a choice.
00:04:27Do you know what I'm going to try to do while I'm here?
00:04:30Besides learn Italian.
00:04:32I don't know why you think that's so ridiculous.
00:04:34I don't at all, I admire you, I just think it's too late for me.
00:04:40That's not true.
00:04:41You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
00:04:44And besides, what's the point, the whole bloody world speaks English.
00:04:49Well I, am going to finally transcribe the tapes.
00:04:53Yes.
00:04:55Yes.
00:04:56All right.
00:04:59Okay.
00:05:02Well if you can see it through to the end, I think that's wonderful.
00:05:07What does that mean?
00:05:09Nothing.
00:05:10Nothing.
00:05:13I think it's a fantastic idea, Jane, I always have, you know that.
00:05:20She didn't sound very supportive.
00:05:22You have my support.
00:05:27I'm sorry if that came out wrong.
00:05:31I just know how emotional listening to them can be, has been, for you.
00:05:35For you.
00:05:36I think enough time has passed.
00:05:38Well, that's great.
00:05:39Why do you think he killed himself?
00:06:04Who?
00:06:05David Foster Wallace.
00:06:06I don't know.
00:06:07You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:06:08You have to read it when I'm done, though, right?
00:06:11Do you think he recognized a blank infinity, just stretching out?
00:06:17He got to this point, maybe, where it was just day after day after day.
00:06:18I really don't know, Jane.
00:06:19Just so tedious.
00:06:24And then, of course, he felt guilty.
00:06:27Most people think, well, I don't know, Jane.
00:06:28You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:06:29You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:06:30You have to read it when I'm done, though, right?
00:06:31Do you think he recognized a blank infinity, just stretching out?
00:06:35He got to this point, maybe, where it was just day after day after day?
00:06:38I really don't know, Jane.
00:06:40Just so tedious.
00:06:42And then, of course, he felt guilty.
00:06:45Most people think life is too short, and there he was, all the talent in the world.
00:06:49And it wasn't that...
00:06:50Jane, can I... can we not talk about this?
00:06:53Just... just a bit more, then.
00:07:12Love you.
00:07:15Love you too.
00:07:35Do you feel alright?
00:07:37Do you feel okay?
00:07:38Yeah.
00:07:39Do you feel okay?
00:07:40Do you feel me?
00:07:41No.
00:07:42Did you feel me?
00:07:43Do you feel me of a young age?
00:07:44Do you have a young age?
00:07:45I'm your giant model.
00:07:46How do you feel you're broken now?
00:07:47I'm home gamers.
00:07:48Do you feel me!
00:07:49And you're lucky for me?
00:07:51I'm happy for you.
00:07:52What's going on?
00:07:53I let you feel you feel you all?
00:07:54Explosive me is the thing.
00:07:55Do you feel you?
00:07:55You feel me?
00:07:57Do you feel a nice?
00:07:58Yes, honey?
00:08:00Do you feel me?
00:08:01Federalie and £200ana for my hair?
00:08:01Are you that?
00:08:02Do you feel so you can HI?
00:08:03She's your哈哈 and she doesn't belong.
00:08:04Go back up your face to hair for me!
00:08:04And you!
00:08:05Are you?
00:08:06I don't know.
00:08:36I don't know.
00:09:06Are you sure you won't come with?
00:09:18You'll be so busy.
00:09:21We get boring all alone.
00:09:24I think someone should be here in case the card is delivered.
00:09:27True.
00:09:28Then I think I might go out, see what the world has to offer.
00:09:37If you do, leave me a message, okay?
00:09:42So I can worry about you.
00:09:44Okay.
00:09:44I've left you some money here.
00:09:54I'll see you later.
00:09:55Have a good day.
00:09:56I'll see you later.
00:10:26I'll see you later.
00:10:28What kind of stories?
00:10:30Stories that you've prepared for, I can ask them a list of stories that Dad told me about.
00:10:34Go ahead and ask from your father's list.
00:10:36God rest his soul.
00:10:37Let's start with the war.
00:10:38We went into an air raid shelter.
00:10:42My mother, your great-grandmother, she was shaking.
00:10:46Sirens wailed and then there was the sound of a bomb.
00:10:50And the man next to us, he said,
00:10:52I was in a shelter last night with my wife and my little boy and half of it got blown away.
00:10:59There was blood in his hair.
00:11:02He was all alone.
00:11:03That nearly finished my mother, you know.
00:11:05Here we were in this tiny town in England, miles from Germany, from Russia, from Italy, from any front lines.
00:11:15And this man, he had blood in his hair.
00:11:19He had blood in his hair.
00:11:49We were riding our bikes to school when the Germans started firing at us.
00:12:01We jumped into a hedge.
00:12:04We were terrified, but afterwards we couldn't stop laughing.
00:12:09It feels now as if I'm the only one who remembers that.
00:12:13It's as vivid to me as if it happened yesterday.
00:12:15Oh, hi, Leonard.
00:12:20It's Jane.
00:12:21I decided to take an impromptu trip to Iskia.
00:12:24Or, um, Iskia, as they pronounce it.
00:12:28See, I'm learning a little bit.
00:12:30Um, anyway, I'll be home later.
00:12:33I hope you have a good day.
00:12:35Bye.
00:12:35Those friends are all dead now.
00:12:39There's no one left.
00:12:41That's one of my regrets, you know.
00:12:44Sometimes I think I should have had more children, not just your father.
00:12:48You're all alone now that your parents are gone.
00:12:54No brothers, no sisters.
00:12:59I'm upsetting you.
00:13:01Let's talk about something else.
00:13:04You want to ask me more boring questions about the war?
00:13:06All right, then.
00:13:10Uh, scusi.
00:13:12Scusi.
00:13:13Um, the castle?
00:13:15Castle?
00:13:16Parlato inglese?
00:13:18No, no, no.
00:13:19No?
00:13:19No.
00:13:20Um, castello oregonese?
00:13:24Ah, andare.
00:13:25Andare?
00:13:26Andare?
00:13:26Si.
00:13:26Ah, grazie.
00:13:27Yeah.
00:13:27They'd been shot through the neck.
00:13:32The bullet went in one side and came out the other.
00:13:36And there were all these bomb holes filled with water, and he couldn't tell which was the
00:13:40German side and which was the Allied side.
00:13:43When he came home after something like that, you couldn't really complain to him about anything,
00:13:50now could you?
00:13:50I'm actually going there now, to the castle.
00:13:53You speak English now?
00:13:54Yeah.
00:13:55Why, do you think I was Italian?
00:13:56Yeah.
00:13:57Yes!
00:13:58That's great.
00:13:58That's cool.
00:13:59Hey, hey, hey.
00:14:01Where are you from?
00:14:03London.
00:14:04No, in America.
00:14:05Come on.
00:14:05Maine.
00:14:06No, shit.
00:14:07I'm from Massachusetts.
00:14:08That's crazy.
00:14:09That's weird.
00:14:10Right?
00:14:11Yeah.
00:14:12Vacation?
00:14:13No.
00:14:13Are you?
00:14:14What?
00:14:15Are you here on vacation?
00:14:16Oh.
00:14:20Sorry.
00:14:20I thought you were saying you were on vacation.
00:14:22Me?
00:14:23No.
00:14:25So, come on.
00:14:25My husband is working in Naples.
00:14:29What does he do?
00:14:30He is playing in a concert at the end of the night.
00:14:34Cool.
00:14:36What does he play?
00:14:37Viola.
00:14:38Mm-mm-mm.
00:14:40The viola.
00:14:41Any good?
00:14:43Yes.
00:14:45Very.
00:14:45Very.
00:14:45Very.
00:14:48How do you keep your violin from getting stolen?
00:14:51You put it in a viola case.
00:14:55Right?
00:14:58That's not funny.
00:14:59What's the difference between a viola and a coffin?
00:15:02A coffin has a dead person on the inside.
00:15:05Because viola players are dead?
00:15:07No?
00:15:07Why is a viola solo like premature ejaculation?
00:15:10Because even though you know it's coming, there's nothing you can do about it.
00:15:18I can't help it.
00:15:19I've got this weird autistic mind for jokes, and I went to this music-slash-nerd summer camp
00:15:23when I was, like, ten, and I played the triangle.
00:15:25Right.
00:15:26And I'm an only child, so, you know, understand.
00:15:31You look too young to be married.
00:15:32You newlywed?
00:15:34No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:47Stop making me feel like a stalker.
00:15:49Fuck!
00:15:49One, please.
00:15:50One, please.
00:15:5110.
00:15:5210.
00:15:5210.
00:15:5310.
00:15:5410.
00:15:5510.
00:15:5610.
00:15:5710.
00:15:5810?
00:15:5910.
00:16:0010.
00:16:0110.
00:16:0210?
00:16:0310?
00:16:0410.
00:16:0510.
00:16:06You can catch it.
00:16:10preneur.
00:16:1112.
00:16:34What brought you out of here today?
00:16:36Ha! Barry.
00:16:38I like it.
00:16:40They have this device down in the basement.
00:16:42It's like a torture cage.
00:16:44They lock you in there until you turn to bones.
00:16:48Can you imagine dying by just sitting there?
00:16:50That would suck.
00:16:58In, like, the 1300s, thousands of families lived in this castle.
00:17:02It doesn't smell pretty bad.
00:17:04All those people crammed onto this rock.
00:17:10Wow.
00:17:12I know.
00:17:13I've been coming here every day and it still gets me.
00:17:16If only we could kill off all the tourists.
00:17:20You're a tourist.
00:17:22No, I'm not.
00:17:24I came out here a few months ago with this volunteer organization
00:17:28dedicated to studying the relic populations of dolphins and whales
00:17:32in the Gulf of Naples.
00:17:34I can't tell if you're joking.
00:17:36I'm dead fucking serious.
00:17:38No, I just didn't want to go to college and they paid for me to come over.
00:17:42Four connecting flights is a 72-hour plane ride, but, you know, it was worth it.
00:17:46My first time out of the U.S.
00:17:48How old are you?
00:17:49I'm 19.
00:17:50It's my birthday today.
00:17:51Is it really?
00:17:52Uh-huh.
00:17:53Happy birthday.
00:17:54Happy birthday.
00:17:55Thank you very much.
00:17:56Yeah, so I left the program after, like, a month.
00:17:59Fuck the relic dolphins!
00:18:01I stayed on the island because I have this awesome living situation.
00:18:05I'll tell you the short version.
00:18:07Basically, I used to have ancestors in Ischia,
00:18:09so when I come over, I Facebook this second cousin twice removed.
00:18:12The second cousin twice removed, in case you didn't know,
00:18:14is when one person's great-grandparent is another person's great-great-great-grandparent.
00:18:18I'd love to hear the long version.
00:18:20Sorry, anyway.
00:18:21So this relative gave me the name of this great uncle who lives on the island,
00:18:25so I show up, he answers the door, and he's like the oldest fucker I've ever seen,
00:18:30easily pushing a hundred.
00:18:31A hundred?
00:18:32Yeah, if not older, he's like deaf and blind and about four feet tall,
00:18:37and he mumbles a couple of things to me in some crazy dialect,
00:18:40ushers me inside, pours me a glass of wine,
00:18:42and leads me to this basement apartment, and, uh, yeah, I never left.
00:18:48I am.
00:18:50Uh, yeah, I am.
00:18:53Uhm, you?
00:18:54Oh-oh...
00:18:57Oh-oh...
00:18:59Oh-oh...
00:19:09I remember the fortieth neck is more thanì—†ment,
00:19:11but there is a long Son-in-sung.
00:19:13It sounds like a kad Xiaomi,
00:19:15no liesle...
00:19:17Love teaches me to feed on flames and tears To turn withered hope green through desire
00:19:47To re-enslave my heart each time love frees his noble face from that heavy disdain
00:19:54Who is that?
00:19:57Vittoria Colonna
00:20:00Ah, the woman who lived here
00:20:04You read that in your guidebook this morning, didn't you, Jane?
00:20:08Sneaky
00:20:10Yeah, I've decided to learn Italian by committing to memory all the sonnets you wrote to Michelangelo in English and Italian
00:20:16I thought Michelangelo was gay
00:20:19Ah, according to history and the muscular thighs of his sculptures, yes, but that didn't stop her from loving him
00:20:27Let's hear it then
00:20:30In Italian
00:20:32Let's hear the poem
00:20:34Come on
00:20:36Come on
00:20:37Come on
00:20:38Come on

00:20:41Thank you
00:20:42Are you hungry?
00:20:43Why are you going to take me?
00:20:44I'm impressed.
00:20:46You hungry?
00:20:47Why are you going to take me out?
00:20:48Yeah.
00:20:49Why are you going to take me out?
00:20:50Yeah.
00:20:51Alright then.
00:20:52Okay.
00:20:53Okay.
00:20:54Okay.
00:20:55Two pastas were

00:21:00There's ____________
00:21:04I'm impressed
00:21:05Yeah.
00:21:06It's been a ______, but that's not the key
00:21:07It's not the key
00:21:09to be the good thing
00:21:10We need to take me out
00:21:11I'm impressed.
00:21:14All right, then.
00:21:19Okay.
00:21:24Two pastas with the house sauce, please?
00:21:27Red.
00:21:28White?
00:21:29Red, please.
00:21:30Uh-huh.
00:21:32Grazie.
00:21:33So you're really not going to tell me what you do?
00:21:35I write freelance articles about parties and fashion trends in town and country UK.
00:21:46There's something else.
00:21:54I'm writing a book about my grandmother's experiences in rural England living through two world wars.
00:22:01I recorded her for hours and hours.
00:22:04But now, I don't know.
00:22:09What don't you know?
00:22:12You want to listen?
00:22:13A little?
00:22:15Yeah.
00:22:16Yeah?
00:22:17Yeah, no, I love to listen.
00:22:34It's tangled up.
00:22:35I don't know.
00:22:36Okay.
00:22:37Awful as it was, it made you stronger.
00:22:45These days, people whine about all sorts of things.
00:22:48I'm not one of those old people who think my time had the only joy and the only problems.
00:22:54We all have our own private wars every era, but it was nothing like...
00:23:00It really brought people together, the war.
00:23:02We helped each other during that time.
00:23:05We had to laugh.
00:23:06We had to smile.
00:23:07Well, if not for ourselves, then for the people we'd lost.
00:23:11I'll shut that thing off.
00:23:13Would you get it out of my face?
00:23:15Yeah.
00:23:18That is like...
00:23:19It's like a window in time.
00:23:22The sort of thing you wish you always did before someone died, you know?
00:23:27My husband thinks I'm never going to finish it.
00:23:30I shouldn't care what anyone thinks.
00:23:32We met while I was recording her.
00:23:35Bonding over Granny, huh?
00:23:37Make it sound perverse.
00:23:40That's what it was, right?
00:23:42Buongiorno.
00:23:43Buongiorno.
00:23:44Signori?
00:23:53I got pregnant, so we got married.
00:24:01I lost the baby.
00:24:05I'm sorry.
00:24:07I didn't go back after that to the States.
00:24:32Did you, uh, did you ever hear that story about the red string?
00:24:43I think I might have.
00:24:44Tell me.
00:24:45It's like this Asian proverb says that anyone you're destined to meet, like your soulmate, or your family, or, you know, someone you bump into on the street, we're all connected by this red string.
00:25:04It can be tangled or stretched, but it can never be broken.
00:25:12There's this moment in the tape, I'm sitting, waiting in the airport bar for my flight.
00:25:24And I'm talking into the recorder, and I'm talking into the recorder, rambling on about how I'm about to embark on this amazing adventure and how I'm gonna show World War II from a totally different perspective.
00:25:37But...
00:25:38I don't know if it's that interesting.
00:25:47That's the whole point, isn't it?
00:25:48Keeping it interesting for yourself.
00:25:49Maybe.
00:25:50Maybe I just wanna write about nothing.
00:25:51Everything is nothing.
00:25:52All the best.
00:25:53All the best.
00:25:54Compliano.
00:25:55Grazie.
00:25:56Grazie.
00:25:57Make a wish, huh?
00:25:59Yeah.
00:26:00Make it great.
00:26:01Okay.
00:26:02Everything is nothing.
00:26:06All the best.
00:26:08Grazie.
00:26:09That's it.
00:26:12Make a wish.
00:26:16Make it great.
00:26:21Okay.
00:26:25Bravo.
00:26:26Bravo.
00:26:27Bravo.
00:26:32What do you mean I'm ready to go?
00:26:37What?
00:26:38Grab my hand.
00:26:39Wait, go, go, go.
00:26:40Oh, my God.
00:26:41Oh, my gosh.
00:26:42Oh, my gosh.
00:26:43Oh, my gosh.
00:26:44Oh, no.
00:26:45What?
00:26:46What do you mean?
00:26:54It's the carabinieri.
00:26:56It's the police.
00:26:57No.
00:26:58No.
00:26:59No.
00:27:00No.
00:27:01No.
00:27:02No.
00:27:03No.
00:27:03No.
00:27:04No.
00:27:05We can't go back.
00:27:06We can't go back.
00:27:06We can't go back.
00:27:10You can't pay me.
00:27:14Oh, God.
00:27:16Oh, God.
00:27:23There you go.
00:27:27It make me a better place than I said the whole thing up.
00:27:30Yes, it's true.
00:27:31It's true.
00:27:33It's true.
00:27:35I made the check when I went to the bathroom.
00:27:40You're horrible.
00:27:42You're horrible.
00:27:44You're really horrible.
00:27:45Come on, let's go.
00:27:46Come on.
00:27:48Quick.
00:27:49Let's go.
00:27:51Why are we still running?
00:27:53I don't know why we're still running.
00:28:01Oh, my gosh.
00:28:14What about my nose?
00:28:20We come back?
00:28:23Maybe.
00:28:25Maybe it's not a no.
00:28:29And since I don't have a phone,
00:28:31you're going to have to give me your number
00:28:33for cheap thrills and future crimes committed.
00:28:37No.
00:28:40Fair enough.
00:28:50I've got to go catch a fairy.
00:28:57Hey.
00:29:01Why do violists keep their viola cases
00:29:08on their dashboards?
00:29:19Why?
00:29:20So they can park in a handicapped spot.
00:29:29Oh.
00:29:32Happy birthday.
00:29:35How do you know?
00:29:48How do you know?
00:29:58Oh, my gosh.
00:30:30You're awake.
00:30:52Yeah, I've got so much of this stuff to get through.
00:30:56Got through.
00:30:58Nice.
00:31:00There are the great big events, the things you think you'll always remember and you do,
00:31:09but there are other smaller, picking a blackberry that's been in the sun or brushing the fingertip
00:31:15of someone you didn't know you loved until you touched them.
00:31:18Nellie was this little collie who wouldn't go on a leash, so she had to sit on a bicycle
00:31:25seat.
00:31:27They stay with me too.
00:31:29Jane.
00:31:30Jane.
00:31:31Jane.
00:31:32Jane.
00:31:33Got some pastries.
00:31:38Still asleep?
00:31:39Jane.
00:31:40Jane.
00:31:41Got some pastries.
00:31:45Still asleep?
00:31:46Jane.
00:31:47Jane.
00:31:48Jane.
00:31:49Jane.
00:31:50Jane.
00:31:51Jane.
00:31:52Jane.
00:31:53Jane.
00:31:54Jane.
00:31:55My friends had lots of American boyfriends, and they used to bring us nylon stockings
00:32:24and chocolates and all sorts of things, and we used to go to London, and we saw Glen Miller
00:32:31one time.
00:32:32We used to go all over the place.
00:32:35They were wonderful times.
00:32:39I never had an American boyfriend.
00:32:42I liked some of them.
00:32:44They were nice boys, but I didn't want to leave my mum and dad.
00:32:51I wish I had sometimes.
00:32:53You know, when you were 19, the world just felt so open and carefree and full of possibility.
00:33:02You reminded me of that.
00:33:03At that time.
00:33:04You were 19 when we met?
00:33:05Yeah.
00:33:06I wouldn't have described you as carefree back then.
00:33:07Not at all.
00:33:08Well, I felt nostalgia.
00:33:09Or something for youth.
00:33:10You're not old, Jane.
00:33:11We ran out on the bill.
00:33:12You just ran out?
00:33:13What do you mean you ran out on the bill?
00:33:15Perhaps I'm not explaining it well.
00:33:28It was fun.
00:33:29It was just fun.
00:33:32How was work?
00:33:36The conductor's actually a descendant of Walter Lake, which is fascinating.
00:33:42The three of us should plan a dinner before we leave.
00:33:44I'd like that.
00:33:45Jane?
00:33:46Oh, my God.
00:33:47This is Caleb.
00:33:48Hi.
00:33:49No, no.
00:33:50We were just talking about you.
00:33:51We were?
00:33:52That's so weird.
00:33:53Sit.
00:33:54Please, sit down.
00:33:55Join us.
00:33:56What?
00:33:57What?
00:33:58What?
00:33:59What?
00:34:00Oh, my God.
00:34:01This is Caleb.
00:34:02Hi.
00:34:03No, no.
00:34:04We were just talking about you.
00:34:05We were?
00:34:06That's so weird.
00:34:07Sit.
00:34:08Please.
00:34:09Sit down.
00:34:10Join us.
00:34:11What?
00:34:12Oh.
00:34:13I don't have the chances of that.
00:34:14I know, right?
00:34:19I'm obviously going to get back pretty soon.
00:34:21That's OK.
00:34:22I already ate, so I'll just grab a coffee.
00:34:25Can I have the check, please?
00:34:35In a cafe, pour, pour, pour?
00:34:38Oh, no, thank you.
00:34:43Jane, you don't smoke.
00:34:49Yes, I do.
00:34:51Sometimes, at parties.
00:34:54I didn't know that.
00:34:57Well, I don't do it a lot.
00:35:01That's it?
00:35:02Grazie.
00:35:03Very good?
00:35:04Grazie.
00:35:05Good.
00:35:06Italian food's so overrated.
00:35:10I love it.
00:35:11There's no variety.
00:35:13English food, on the other hand.
00:35:15Say what you like about it.
00:35:16There's nothing like a good steak and kidney pie.
00:35:20I went to this party the other day in this villa owned by this old, drunk expat.
00:35:26They had, like, a private chef and everything.
00:35:29And they were serving this, like, loaf of meat covered in sauce with all these other loaves.
00:35:35And this girl came over to me and said it was cat.
00:35:38No.
00:35:39No joke.
00:35:40Like, a roasted mommy cat and her kittens.
00:35:43That is disgusting.
00:35:45True story.
00:35:46Why don't you tell Leonard one of your viola jokes?
00:35:54Come on.
00:35:55You're selling my ant.
00:35:56Come on.
00:35:57Let's hear one.
00:35:58Um.
00:35:59I have one.
00:36:00What is the definition of perfect pitch?
00:36:03What?
00:36:04When you throw a viola into the dumpster without hitting the rim.
00:36:09You didn't just make that up.
00:36:10I did.
00:36:11It's too good.
00:36:12I did.
00:36:13I did.
00:36:14Well, I'm impressed and I'm stealing it.
00:36:16You can pretty much make that joke about any instrument.
00:36:18Hmm.
00:36:19Did you play anything?
00:36:20No.
00:36:21No.
00:36:22No.
00:36:23No.
00:36:24No.
00:36:25No.
00:36:26No.
00:36:27No.
00:36:28No.
00:36:29No.
00:36:30No.
00:36:31No.
00:36:32No.
00:36:33No.
00:36:34No.
00:36:35No.
00:36:36No.
00:36:37No.
00:36:38No.
00:36:39No.
00:36:40No.
00:36:41No.
00:36:42No.
00:36:43No.
00:36:44No.
00:36:45No.
00:36:46No.
00:36:47No.
00:36:48No.
00:36:49No.
00:36:50No.
00:36:51No.
00:36:52No.
00:36:53No.
00:36:54No.
00:36:55No.
00:36:56No.
00:36:57No.
00:36:58No.
00:36:59No.
00:37:00No.
00:37:01No.
00:37:02No.
00:37:03No.
00:37:04No.
00:37:05No.
00:37:06No.
00:37:07Yeah, there's this thing called the Shantan Festival at the end of the summer.
00:37:10Yeah, I've heard about that.
00:37:11That's where the Buddhist monks unroll all the tapestries on the hill, right?
00:37:16The monks, the monks, the monks.
00:37:17It's so pretty.
00:37:20How do you support yourself?
00:37:21You know, a bit of this, a bit of that.
00:37:28All right, then.
00:37:30I'll walk you.
00:37:32Does anybody have a pen? You got a pen?
00:37:34Yeah, I have a pen.
00:37:37I have a piece of paper.
00:37:50You guys should definitely come over to the island.
00:37:53I'll take you somewhere fun, you know.
00:37:55Don't knock on the front door. Come around the side.
00:37:57I need Regina.
00:38:00There you go.
00:38:05And thanks again for yesterday.
00:38:08Oh, no problem.
00:38:10Hey.
00:38:13Ciao.
00:38:13How stoned are you?
00:38:23Come on, man.
00:38:24We should tell him to pop.
00:38:24It's not a big deal.
00:38:27So you're saying you smoke back at her?
00:38:31Occasionally.
00:38:32Hey, can we do something fun tonight?
00:38:35Sure.
00:38:35I'm fine from here.
00:38:41Okay.
00:38:41See you after work.
00:38:42Yep.
00:38:43I'll be waiting.
00:38:43I'll be waiting.
00:38:43See you after work.
00:38:51Bye.
00:39:03Bye.
00:39:06Bye.
00:39:07Hey?
00:39:08God, you scared me.
00:39:09Are you following me?
00:39:10Maybe.
00:39:11Is that weird?
00:39:12Yeah.
00:39:13I couldn't sleep last night.
00:39:37You told me you were staying near the port so I got the first ferry this morning.
00:39:41I came looking for you.
00:39:44And I can't believe I found you.
00:40:07What are we doing?
00:40:28I think we're making it out.
00:40:33So sexy and beautiful.
00:41:03I can't.
00:41:04I can't do this.
00:41:05What?
00:41:06What?
00:41:07I can't do this.
00:41:08Why?
00:41:09Do you do this a lot?
00:41:10What?
00:41:11Do you do this a lot?
00:41:12What?
00:41:13Do you seduce women?
00:41:14Is this what you do?
00:41:16You need to be less serious.
00:41:19Don't throw me.
00:41:22I can't.
00:41:23I can't.
00:41:24I can't.
00:41:25I can't.
00:41:26I can't.
00:41:27You're right.
00:41:32I can't.
00:41:37I can't.
00:42:45There was one boy from Belgium. He was lovely. He had a moustache. My mother hated moustaches.
00:42:54But he was shipped off. I never saw him again.
00:43:00Hmm? Anyways, I met your grandfather not long after, and we got married.
00:43:08Was it love at first sight with grandpa? Love at first sight? Stop that thing.
00:43:16I know. You're home early.
00:43:19I do deserve that.
00:43:28You know, it doesn't work for your husband.
00:43:31Jane, I'm sorry. Just give me a minute. I have a hell of a rest of my day. I've got so much
00:43:41stuff to do. Sorry, darling.
00:43:46Hey, do you still want to do something fun tonight?
00:43:48Yeah, absolutely. Lots of dinner. I thought we'd just stay in here. The two of us.
00:43:55I've just got to work this thing out for tomorrow.
00:43:57Okay.
00:43:57Okay.
00:43:58You still want to do something fun tonight?
00:43:59Okay.
00:44:00Okay.
00:44:01You still want to do something fun tonight?
00:44:02Okay.
00:44:03Okay.
00:44:04Okay.
00:44:05Bye.
00:44:06Okay.
00:44:28Bye.
00:44:30Bye.
00:44:32Bye.
00:44:33Bye.
00:44:33Bye.
00:44:33Bye.
00:44:34Leonard, can we talk?
00:45:04Say cheese.
00:45:32You should kind of be in the middle.
00:45:39Hold on a second.
00:45:51That's what our living room is missing.
00:45:57What did you do?
00:46:09Put my hand over my mouth.
00:46:11You did?
00:46:12What did you do?
00:46:13Just wave.
00:46:25What did you do?
00:46:37What did you do?
00:46:41What did you do?
00:46:53What did you do?
00:46:57What did you do?
00:46:59What did you do?
00:47:01What did you do?
00:47:03What did you do?
00:47:19What did you do?
00:47:29What did you do?
00:47:31What did you do?
00:47:36Oh, my God.
00:48:36Oh, hi.
00:49:01Did I wake you?
00:49:03No.
00:49:06I think I need to be less serious.
00:49:11Yeah.
00:49:13Will you put my pants on?
00:49:16Okay.
00:52:46Leonard thought you were lying about those cats.
00:52:52He said that?
00:52:56Were you?
00:52:57They were delicious.
00:52:59You made me feel nervous.
00:53:19You make me feel calm.
00:53:24You want a drink?
00:53:49You made me feel calm.
00:53:55Is that him?
00:54:11Yeah, I just shuffled around all night.
00:54:18Must be lonely.
00:54:18You make me feel calm.
00:54:24I...
00:55:27Again and again and again, again and again and again, once I was single, my pocket is in jingle, I wish I was single again.
00:55:44Again and again and again, again and again and again, once I was single, my pocket is in jingle, I wish I was single again.
00:56:00I didn't sleep at all last night.
00:56:14Where have you been?
00:56:17Just walking.
00:56:19All night.
00:56:21I've been thinking.
00:56:22You left your phone here. I had to plug it in.
00:56:27We need to talk, Leonard.
00:56:28I have to go to work.
00:56:30Can you be late?
00:56:34No, I can't be late.
00:56:39I never tell you.
00:56:40Jay, whatever you have to say to me, I want to hear it.
00:56:44I've committed myself.
00:56:45People are depending on me.
00:56:48I have to go to work.
00:56:52Okay.
00:56:52I've been thinking.
00:56:53All night.
00:56:54Okay.
00:56:54Okay.
00:56:55All night.
00:56:57All night.
00:57:01I've been thinking.
00:57:02if it wasn't the war
00:57:27it would have been something else
00:57:29there's always something else
00:57:33isn't there
00:57:33that's the thing
00:57:35that's the thing about struggle
00:57:37I'm going to make some tea
00:57:49do you want some?
00:57:52I'm alright
00:57:59you go out like that again
00:58:01just tell me
00:58:02no worry
00:58:03okay
00:58:06I can't seem to figure out
00:58:10what's going on in your head
00:58:11do you think everything we've been through
00:58:27actually does us any good
00:58:28in the long run
00:58:31or do we just make out struggle
00:58:37to be something meaningful
00:58:38because that's all most of us have

01:03:57How's the writing going?
01:04:27I'm feeling inspired
01:04:28It's fantastic
01:04:33I think I've figured out the key to finishing the project
01:04:38Are you listening?
01:04:43You found the key to finishing this project
01:04:48But the water here tastes so funny
01:04:58Have you ever cheated on me?
01:05:05Oh, Jane
01:05:06Have you?
01:05:06Can we not?
01:05:09Have you?
01:05:15Absolutely not
01:05:17Why did you take such a long time to answer that?
01:05:20Because I'm sick
01:05:21Of what, Leonard?
01:05:24Of it being so hard?
01:05:26Yes
01:05:27Tedious
01:05:28I hate talking about sex with you
01:05:36Is that what we're talking about?
01:05:39Normal people talk about sex, Leonard
01:05:41And we don't?
01:05:43There's just huge, vacant lots that we don't discuss
01:05:48Like what?
01:05:50Is there anything you want to ask me?
01:05:53Why?
01:05:53Is there anything you want to tell me?
01:05:55I just want to connect
01:05:56So you don't feel that we're connected?
01:06:01Do you?
01:06:04I love you
01:06:05I get it, Leonard
01:06:14I get it
01:06:16It's always been this big, serious, grave thing for us
01:06:20Sex has consequences
01:06:21Life and death
01:06:22Mostly death
01:06:23Jane, please
01:06:24Let me guess
01:06:25You don't want to talk about it?
01:06:26No, that's not what I'm saying
01:06:28You're just
01:06:28Do you want to have children, Leonard?
01:06:30Of course I did
01:06:31Not did
01:06:32Do you
01:06:33Want to have children?
01:06:35So did you
01:06:36But
01:06:37Say it
01:06:41Jane
01:06:42Say it
01:06:43I can't have children, Leonard
01:06:46I never will
01:06:49And if we keep trying
01:06:52They keep dying
01:06:53Again
01:06:53And again
01:06:54And again
01:06:55Please
01:06:55How does that make you feel?
01:07:00It's not your father
01:07:05How does it make you feel, Leonard?
01:07:07How does it make you feel?
01:07:10You will never be a father
01:07:11We can adopt
01:07:14That's not what you want
01:07:16That's not what you want
01:07:16Is it?
01:07:18Is that what you want?
01:07:20Hmm?
01:07:22Because I think about it all the time
01:07:24That the one thing you always wanted
01:07:29I will never be able to give you
01:07:30What are you trying to do, Joan?
01:07:43I just want to know
01:07:43That there's a reason
01:07:44For it all
01:07:46You're not curious about me, Leonard
01:07:58Not really
01:08:00What do you want me to know?
01:08:02You shouldn't have to ask
01:08:03I feel as if
01:08:05You want me to be
01:08:06Someone I'm not
01:08:08Someone that
01:08:10I've never been
01:08:11I'm leaving you
01:08:15I've been seeing someone else
01:08:19See him
01:08:25Caleb
01:08:27That kid
01:08:29Yes
01:08:29That kid
01:08:31That child
01:08:32That kid you've known for two days
01:08:34It's been longer than that
01:08:34Please tell me you're joking
01:08:36Time is shiftable
01:08:39I don't get it
01:08:39Leonard
01:08:40I don't get it
01:08:42He's asked me to travel with him
01:08:44Are you sleeping with him?
01:08:48What do you think?
01:08:55I kept waiting for you to see it
01:08:57To smell it
01:08:58To sense it
01:08:59So what?
01:09:00I failed your test?
01:09:02You don't see me!
01:09:10I'm sorry
01:09:24For what?
01:09:27I'm sorry
01:09:28For what?
01:09:28I shouldn't have done that
01:09:29No
01:09:29For losing my temper
01:09:31I shouldn't have done that
01:09:32You had every right
01:09:32To lose your temper
01:09:33No, no, no, no
01:09:34If you think
01:09:35That this is what's gonna make you feel better
01:09:37Then you should go
01:09:38You should go with him
01:09:39You've been through a terrible
01:09:42A terrible thing, Jane
01:09:44No, that is not what this is about
01:09:46Of course it is
01:09:46You don't love me anymore, Leonard
01:09:49You don't love me!
01:09:50That's rubbish
01:09:50This is your ticket
01:09:54The day after my performance
01:09:56Meet me at the train station
01:09:59Our training's at 4.30
01:10:02We'll go home together
01:10:05I want you to do
01:10:08What you need to do
01:10:09And then come back to me
01:10:15No questions asked
01:10:18No guilt
01:10:19This is good
01:10:32I want you to do
01:11:02I want you to do
01:11:32You want some?
01:12:02Oh, thanks

01:12:05That's good
01:12:07Oh, thanks
01:12:07Oh, thanks
01:12:38Frank and Elsa coming over in a couple of hours.
01:12:48Frank bought a car, so we're going to head out in a couple of weeks or so, you know.
01:12:56I'm thinking of driving through Romania and then Ukraine and down through Russia and through Kazakhstan and then straight to Tibet.

01:14:52Jays
01:14:54You've got to come over to this side
01:14:59The train's going to be here in a minute
01:15:22It's four in the morning
01:15:28The end of December
01:15:31I'm riding you now just to see if you're there
01:15:37New York is cold but I like where I'm living
01:15:43There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening
01:15:49I hear that you're building
01:15:54Your house deep in the desert
01:16:00Are you living for nothing now
01:16:06Hope you're keeping some kind of record
01:16:11Yes
01:16:13And Jane
01:16:15Came by with a lock of your hair
01:16:21She said that you gave it to her
01:16:27That night when you planned to go clear
01:16:33I wouldn't want to live to be 100
01:16:35Why not?
01:16:37I'm not telling you why not
01:16:39Now shut that thing off
