00:32Less than the team we're gonna solve the formula eventually like they're so close

00:58Oh fuck
01:10This session beginning at the beginning
01:19Childhood
01:20This is when family dysfunction often makes its way known into our adult relationships
01:29Lindy
01:32Describe your childhood in one word
01:35Cold
01:36Mm-hmm
01:40Less
01:42Yeah
01:43Describe your childhood in one word
01:45Happy
01:47Uh-huh
01:49Yeah
01:50Happy
01:50Okay
01:51Now Les
01:52This session is what I like to call
01:55The check engine light is on
01:59And we need to locate what needs service
02:02But in order to start that repair, Les
02:05We need to dig deep
02:06To diagnose it
02:08Does that make sense?
02:09Sure
02:10Dig
02:10Dig deep
02:11That's right
02:12Yeah
02:13Very good
02:13So digging deeper
02:17Describe your childhood
02:18Childhood in one word
02:20Joyful
02:20Deeper
02:21Idyllic
02:22Deeper still
02:23Les
02:24Loving
02:24Okay
02:34I'm gonna change tack
02:36Lindy
02:37From your perspective
02:38How would you describe Les's childhood in one word?
02:41Delusional
02:41What's that supposed to mean?
02:43It means your mother created a fantasy childhood for you
02:46Is she qualified to make these psychological hypotheses?
02:50Hypotheses?
02:51It's not a hypothesis
02:54Your mother told me
02:56What?
02:57Nancy told me
02:58She was protecting you from your hypercritical controlling father
03:03She is misinterpreting my dad's tough love as critical
03:06Was it Nancy who called it tough love?
03:09Yeah
03:09It was
03:10And I believe her
03:13Delusional
03:14I mean
03:32He has gone fucking mad
03:37It's just
03:38He's been at it all night
03:40He's moving
03:42Searching
03:43Taping
03:44Look at that trap
03:46It's ridiculous
03:48Shrinks my laptop
03:50As bait
03:51Get out of here
03:56Hey, hey, hey
03:57Yeah, sure
03:58Maybe it's not his best work
03:59But
03:59But he's obviously worried about you
04:02Uh, no
04:03He is worried
04:05Because he can't control me
04:07Maybe control is his love language
04:09Maybe that sucks, Richard
04:11I mean, if he catches me
04:12Who knows what he'll lock me up in next
04:14I can see from your point of view how that could suck
04:17But look
04:18We could easily outsmart that rudimentary trap
04:22And just obtain the laptop
04:23Send him a little email
04:24His mind in ease
04:25We're not obtaining anything that defeats the purpose
04:29No
04:29Yeah, I know that
04:30Wait, remind me
04:31We are proving my independence
04:33We
04:33Me
04:34I
04:34I
04:35Okay
04:35I don't need a laptop
04:37I have my phone
04:38Got it
04:39So
04:40Let's just
04:41Do you want a little help with that?
04:43I got it
04:47Oh

04:49He or she really wants to get a hold of you

05:56Reality check
05:57You didn't fucking write it
05:59It's not about the story
06:00But
06:00It's about my fans
06:02And that they love me
06:03That they still love me
06:04You're basking in make-believe glory
06:06This is a ticking time bomb that is going to blow

08:46We're not getting the laptop
08:48No, no, no, no
08:49We are gonna go get the charger
08:51Because the charger equals independence
09:00He should have used a more sensitive trigger
09:02You need to let it go, Richie
09:04We're not going for the laptop
09:05Les!
09:08We gotta hide it
09:08Huh?

09:43You gotta be in the less zone
09:45This do not walk outside the less zone
09:47Les?
09:47Yes, keep your voice down
09:49Let me check your shoes
09:50Oh, God

10:03For Lindy
10:04As a surprise
10:05Oh
10:06Yeah
10:06Yeah, yeah
10:07And I'm worried about you
10:08Being up here
10:09It's dangerous
10:10So we should go
10:11We should go downstairs
10:11Come on, come on
10:12Yeah
10:12I think you are unwell
10:15No, it's fine
10:15It's the fumes
10:16It's the fumes from the floor
10:18That's the whole thing
10:19What?
10:20All right
10:20Okay, so we're on the move
10:23And then we're gonna go
10:25Downstairs
10:25In the less zone
10:27No, you've got to stay
10:28You must
10:28Mom, you've got to stay
10:29In the less zone
10:30Oh, in the less zone
10:30Yeah, okay
10:31See?
10:32We're good
10:32See?
10:33The less zone
10:34That's it
10:34Down we go
10:35We're going down
10:35Okay, we gotta move
10:38Richard
10:38Huh, yeah
10:41You know, I, uh
10:45I miss my mom
10:49Yeah, Les
10:50Les has a really good mom
10:52You know
10:52Nancy, uh
10:54She shielded him
10:55From reality too much
10:56And also from his dad
10:58Though, who was
10:59Wow
10:59But Nancy, no
11:01She's a
11:01Yeah, she's a mom-mom
11:04Kind of always
11:05Wished I had
11:06Imagined
11:08What would I be like
11:09If I
11:10Did have
11:15I think I need a minute
11:17Yeah
11:18Yeah, we can
11:20We can take a minute
11:27Okay, Mom
11:28So, you know
11:29We agreed last night
11:31With a change of plans
11:32And Magoo's with Lindy
11:33And I'm working
11:34And Lulu's here at home
11:36But she's in and out
11:37And she's doing her thing
11:38That, you know
11:39You should
11:39You should probably
11:40Just
11:40You should go home
11:41Okay?
11:42Okay?
11:43Les
11:44Yeah?
11:45I don't believe you
11:46Which part?
11:47Every part, dear
11:49I'm acting perfectly normal
11:50The last minute remodeling
11:53The fumes that I did not smell
11:56The less zone
11:58Lindy's disappearance
11:59Lindy's disappearance?
12:00That's a little date line
12:01The husband was the last one to see her
12:03She's at the gray house, Mom
12:05Okay?
12:07Other than that
12:07I do not see my behavior as bizarre
12:09I am working really hard
12:11I am very stressed out
12:13And I'm not sleeping very well
12:16But I'm fine, Mom
12:17I'm fine, okay?
12:19You're fine
12:20Sure, dear
12:21When you're ready to talk
12:22I'm right here
12:24We talked!
12:25And I'm good
12:26But it is too dangerous for you here
12:28Okay?
12:29I promise
12:30I will stay downstairs
12:32Away from these fumes
12:34But I am not leaving
12:35Until I know you're okay
12:37One last thing
12:38Yes
12:39When was the last time
12:40You showered, dear?
12:46Okay
12:47Woo!
12:48Let's get that charger
12:49Now you just have to
12:51Scale the vertical surface
12:52Using the floss
12:53Like a rock climber would a rope
12:55And just
12:56All the way up
12:57I can't do one pull-up, Richie
12:59But you have the power
13:01Of the square-cube law behind you
13:04See, why even pause?
13:06Just explain
13:07Simple math
13:08As our size decreased
13:11Our proportional strength
13:12That increased
13:13It's like, um, ants
13:15I fucking hate ants
13:17Yes, but ant math is never wrong
13:19Okay, well, you're tiny, too
13:20So you do it
13:21Yeah, yeah, yeah
13:22But
13:24This is your independence
13:26Math is freedom
13:27Freedom is independence
13:29Go!
13:33Right
13:36It's gonna
13:38Yeah, it's not gonna
13:39What are you doing?
13:41I'm conjuring my inner freedom math
13:44This is exciting
13:47Should we hide?
13:48No, no, shh
13:48I'm walking through the foyer
13:50In the left zone
13:51I'm leaving for the lab
13:53But I'd still love to hear from you
13:54Wait, wait
13:57Now I've opened the front door
13:58Martin?
14:00You never answer your phone
14:01Martin?
14:02We're in the clear
14:03He's never letting Martin in here
14:04Yeah, but mom
14:05Mom, mom, mom
14:05Mom is in the basement
14:06And she's a rule follower
14:07She'll stay there
14:08It's Lulu
14:10We don't have eyes on Lulu, so
14:13Tick tock
14:14You gotta help me
14:15Oh yeah, I'm gonna help you
15:01Intense
15:07I remember the moment I discovered my mother was a liar
15:10Too intense
15:12You're too intense
15:15You
15:16Me
15:18Why?
15:20Roommate
15:22Well
15:23Sure
15:23Stop
15:24What?
15:25You suck
15:26You probably suck more
15:28Okay, so I was a dick
15:30Sorry
15:30You didn't insult me
15:32Oh, you don't go to Forest Park?
15:33No, I do
15:34I just don't give a fuck about what you think
15:38Who's Wendy Pressick?
15:43Wendy?
15:44What?
15:44Yeah, she left a pretty hefty bar tab last night
15:48She sounds like a good time
15:49You both had whiskey sours
15:51She paid for your tab
15:53But then left her credit card
15:56Huh?
15:57Okay, why don't you just fucking say it?
15:59Credit card fraud
16:05So what is this?
16:07Is this a shirtless citizen's arrest?
16:11No badge
16:12Nowhere to pin it
16:14I'm only asking
16:16Only you asking?
16:18Only me
16:18Good
16:20It's a stupid question anyway
16:32Okay, I'm gonna go
16:35Well, happy reading, Wendy
16:41You ran out saying someone could be dead
16:43Yeah, Lindy's having a hard time
16:45Is she sick?
16:47No, she's unwell
16:48Oh
16:48Well, look, I am happy to stay with Lindy
16:52No, she's at the Grey House
16:53But you rushed home
16:55She left this morning because she's emotionally unwell
16:58Oh, right, yeah
17:00Should she be alone?
17:02No, Gary and Meg are nearby
17:03It's a lot, Martin
17:04It's a lot to keep in my head, okay?
17:05Yeah, yeah, yeah
17:06Quad for less
17:07Herbal tea for Martin
17:09Bob?
17:11Oh, fuck

20:49Never, dear
20:50I appreciate your honesty
20:51Don't lose that quality
20:53Yeah, I think I was a little too honest last night
20:56Well, booze will do that
20:59I'm so glad you're here
21:01I don't even know or care why
21:03Crossed wires with your dad
21:06Have you told him fuck science yet?
21:09Grandma!
21:09Your words
21:11Your words
21:12Or that you flunked out of college
21:15Sounds worse when you say it
21:16Is that not accurate?
21:20No, it's just...
21:23Fuck
21:25What do you got there?
21:26Oh, Mom's book
21:29Apparently, I'm just like her
21:31Well, I take that as a compliment
21:34I don't think that's how she meant it
21:35I think you'll be surprised
21:50Morning, Bob
21:53I didn't see you
21:54But I saw you
21:57Kneels
21:58Lattes
22:00Plural
22:01I can explain
22:02Yes, you can
22:03And you will
22:04I know you can't help yourself, Bob
22:07Technically speaking
22:08I did not break the conditions stipulated in my NDA
22:11I answer questions solely related to my brother-in-law
22:14And his experiences at MedBot
22:16Then why are you so nervous, Bob?
22:19My brother-in-law alleges that once Hilton's company became the primary investor
22:23They illegally acquired his tech
22:26Illegally acquired?
22:28You know, per my attorney, I must qualify
22:31Allegedly, Hilton's legal chicanery is airtight
22:33And I mean airtight
22:35How did Hilton illegally acquire your brother-in-law's tech, Bob?
22:40Well, they closed ranks
22:41I had my brother-in-law removed
22:43Allegedly
22:46Gentlemen
22:47We didn't see you
22:48We need to talk
22:50Me?
22:50Not you, less you
22:51It's important
23:02Okay, the Today Show
23:04I need to make a new first impression tomorrow morning
23:11What?
23:14Okay, for your information, I gave Jackie Baldwin extensive notes
23:20No one would even care about the story if it didn't have my name on it
23:23Les took everything from me
23:25Look at me, I could be six inches tall forever
23:28So I need this, I need this one thing
23:31I tried
23:32Okay?
23:33Writing is hard
23:35And the pressure on a second book after winning the...
23:38I mean, it's paralyzing
23:41I'm on my own
23:46I need you to tell me it's okay
23:49Please
23:52Tell me
23:55I'm independent
23:57Tell me it's my turn
24:00Tell me
24:01It's mine
24:04Me
24:05Me?
24:06The Bordeaux
24:07Thank you
24:09How's the second book coming?
24:12It's not
24:13But it will
24:14Do you remember how much Gary and I struggled when we were first starting the artisanal vitamin business?
24:19It was...
24:19Oh, like nine and a half months before we made a single sale?
24:23Nine and a half months before we made a single sale
24:26Yeah, but look at us now
24:27Barely able to keep up with Domain
24:29Yeah
24:29And it is absolutely going to be the same for you
24:32Same for you?
24:34No, it's not
24:36It's not the same
24:38At all
24:39It's absolutely not the same at all
24:43How is little Lulu?
24:45Oh, yes
24:46How was her Christmas?
24:47Oh, we knocked her out of the park
24:49We are best parents ever
24:50Show them the pictures
24:52Oh, Jesus
24:52You should see this dollhouse
24:54Oh, well there she is
24:56Amazing
24:57What a sweetie
24:59What a sweetie
25:00So Les, what have you been working on these days?
25:02I mean, R.I.P. GMO Tomato
25:04Oh, yeah, R.I.P. GMO Tomato
25:07But it did bring you success though
25:09You know, it did bring you some success
25:11Yeah
25:11Well, I do have a little germ of an idea, which I'm pretty excited about
25:17You do?
25:18Yeah, it's early days, but I think I can say confidently that it does have the potential to change the
25:25world
25:25It has the potential to change the world
25:27I like the sound of that
25:28I like the sound of that too
25:30But, honey, it's my turn
25:32Remember?
25:34Well, actually, it's still my turn, sweetheart
25:39I do remember
25:40Sorry, we don't
25:42What is the turn saying?
25:44Oh, well, we take turns supporting each other
25:46Oh
25:47So he supported me through my first book
25:48And I supported him through the first tomato
25:50Right
25:51And now it's my turn again
25:52He needs to support me for the second book, see?
25:54Turns
25:55No, because your turn won you the Pulitzer
25:58And my turn has yet to win me the Nobel
26:01The Nobel
26:03I mean, honey
26:05Are you fucking joking?
26:07Honey
26:07Not at all
26:09But the Nobel, that could be never
26:13That's how turns work, right?
26:15That's...
26:16Your turn ended with the tomato that put you on the science map
26:21But then went spot, followed by your imminent termination from Monsanto
26:24Followed by our housekeeper finding him naked, crying on the bed
26:28Oh
26:30Depression
26:31It's a bitch
26:33Yeah
26:35Oh, you know what?
26:37Should we take a visit to the Arch?
26:38Ooh
26:39The Arch
26:40The Arch
26:42How dare you tell Gary and Meg about my naked crying, huh?
26:47That was me at my most vulnerable
26:48That was a secret between us
26:49How dare you tell them your germ of an idea before me?
26:53Especially one that's got me trapped in St. Louis
26:56And it's your turn until you win the Nobel? That's new
26:59Not everyone, Lindy, lucks into their prize on the first try
27:03Luck?
27:04You know what I mean
27:04Think I do
27:09Point is, how can I trust you if you're gonna expose me like that?
27:13Don't trust me then
27:14Just don't tell me anything ever again
27:16Fine, I won't
27:16Good, me too
27:17Great, secrets from now on
27:19Secrets
27:19Need a secret
27:20Love a secret
27:23But it
27:24Is
27:25My turn
27:31My fucking turn
27:35It's my fucking turn
27:41It's my fucking turn
27:43My fucking turn
27:44My fucking turn
27:45My fucking turn
27:50I can't take any more bad cat news
28:02So is this behavior normal? I don't know how to feel
28:04You should feel good
28:06Really?
28:07Mr. Magoo has diabetes
28:09I stabilized his blood sugar and he's going to be fine
28:12So the seizures have nothing to do with miniaturization
28:14Completely unrelated
28:15So she's going to live
28:17I mean he, he, he's going to live
28:18There is more good news
28:20Look
28:26That is a sample of Mr. Magoo's muscle tissue
28:29The rapid expansion process might cause fragmentation in the atomic bonds
28:33Leaving them too fragile to hold
28:38So we need to
28:42We need to slow the reaction
28:44To allow the nuclei time
28:46To form stronger bonds
28:48Stronger bonds
28:49Stronger bonds are fundamental
28:49In the expansion of any
28:51Fragile
28:52Connection
28:53Or
28:54Alliance
28:54Oh, I agree
29:03We need a neutron moderator
29:13V
29:14V
29:15R
29:17Equals V
29:18Nought
29:19That is the exponential of
29:20Negative r
29:23D
29:23D
29:23D
29:23D
29:24D
29:24D
29:24D
29:24D
29:25D
29:26D
29:26D
29:26D
29:26D
29:26D
29:26D
29:28D
29:28D
29:28D
29:28D
29:28D
29:28D
29:29D
29:29D
29:29D
29:30D
29:30negative h bar squared over, over, over, over two times the mass of the nucleus, times the location operator, and
29:41plus v multiplied by r.
29:44Yes? Oh, God, God, this is what I've been missing.
29:51We should check the math.
30:03Mom is a good writer. Like, good.
30:08Well, she won an award, dear.
30:10I know, but I didn't know, no.
30:13Like, look, the book is really funny, but it's also deeply sad.
30:20Grandma, it's making me...
30:22There's just so much I'm connecting about Mom, Grandma Diane, me.
30:31It's like, I might need to rethink my thoughts.
30:36Well, you're coming of age reading about your mom coming of age.
30:41That's deep, Grandma.
30:57Grandma, turn on channel five.
31:02We are talking to Pulitzer Prize winning author, Lindy Littlejohn, about her sensational new short story, Untitled, On Purpose.
31:10What? Lindy looks terrific.
31:13Lindy, could you possibly have expected the reaction to be anything like this?
31:17Oh, Jenna, I... nothing about this experience is what I expected.
31:22The story is just so...
31:23Mom wrote something?
31:24I always knew she would.
31:26Did you know you were writing something so provocative?
31:29You know, everything I write provokes someone.
31:32Right, Jenna?
31:34Very true.
31:35Yeah.
31:35You famously fictionalized your difficult relationship with your mother.
31:40And My Rainbow Starts With Black, one of my all-time favorite books.
31:44Oh, thank you.
31:45I've got to ask you, did you base this story on your real life, too?
31:49So the book is true.
31:50You know, Jenna, I just think everyone does their best writing when they're not worried what other people think.
31:55That's the office.
31:57Upstairs.
31:58I thought she was at the Grey House.
32:01So did I.
32:02Lindy, Littlejohn, thank you so much for being here.
32:04Oh, thank you, Jenna.
32:05It's been wonderful talking to you.
32:07Please turn this story into a book.
32:09I'll think about it.
32:10Okay, bye-bye.
32:19I killed it!
32:21Ha-ha!
32:23You have to write the book.
32:25Oh, my God, I feel like I have another chance.
32:27I could write something.
32:29I could write something great.
32:30You already have.
32:31Yes, Les supported me, but I wrote.
32:34I am a writer.
32:36Right?
32:37I'm here.
32:37I can support you.
32:38I feel like me again.
32:40Richie, this is...
32:42Ah!
32:43Like, where have I been, you know?
32:45Like, I've been here the whole time.
32:46And it's like I forgot.
32:48I forgot.
32:49I was right here.
32:52I'm a writer.
32:56Wait, are you crying?
32:58No.
32:59You're a little.
33:01Me too.
33:03Ha!
33:17Mom?
33:19Mom!
33:22Mom!
33:24Mom!
33:26Woo!
33:3312
33:38Dad's %A that was perfect!
33:39She's such a fast Frau!
33:39Bye bye.
33:49Bye bye!
34:00By Jackie Baldwin?
34:03What the fuck?
34:26Yes.
34:28Were you here all night?
34:29Oh, shit.
34:30Lindy.
34:31Wait, what time is it?
34:32Oh, okay.
34:34So you're new.
34:35So everything's okay now?
34:37Yeah.
34:37Yeah.
34:38I admit, there's a little something between us, but nothing happened.
34:41We had a breakthrough.
34:42Oh, well, she looked great on the Today Show.
34:44Vivian?
34:45Lindy.
34:47Lindy?
34:48Vivian.
34:49Who's on what?
34:50Lindy was on the Today Show this morning.
34:54How did she...
34:56What did she look like?
34:57What?
34:58What?
34:59What?
35:23Lindy?
35:28Lindy?
35:34Lindy?
35:37Lindy?
35:37Lindy?
35:38Lindy?
35:38Where are you?
35:38Lindy?
35:39Right here, Les.
35:41And I can take care of myself.
35:45Yeah, clearly, you're on the fucking Today Show.
35:48I'm worried, sick, I'm working all night, and poof, you're writing again?
35:51You're a viral sensation?
35:52Who knew?
35:53Not me.
35:53Poof.
35:54I'm six inches tall.
35:55Who knew?
35:56Not me.
35:57Keeping secrets was your idea.
36:00I think you're taking that to the extreme.
36:02I think you're taking that to the extreme.
36:05You're delusional.
36:06You're delusional.
36:08I can't lose you, Lindy.
36:10No more traps, Les.
36:12Lindy?
36:13Is that you?
36:15Oh, shit.
36:17Mom!
36:18Dad?
36:19Hold on, hold on.
36:21Hold on.
36:21What's going on?
36:23Oh, my God.
36:24Grandma.
36:25Is she dead?
36:26No, she just fainted.
36:28Quickly, run to the pharmacy, get some bromides.
36:30What the fuck are bromides?
36:32Google it.
36:33She's having one of her spells.
36:34Grandma has spells?
36:35Yes.
36:36She's old.
36:38Hurry up.
36:39Hurry, hurry, hurry.
36:43Mom!
36:46Okay, Mom.
36:48Oh, here we go.
36:50Mom?
36:51Mom, it's okay.
36:53Hey, Mom.
36:54Hey.
36:56Mom.
36:58Hey.
36:59Hey, it's okay.
37:01You just fainted.
37:04I saw her.
37:06Saw who, Mom?
37:08Lindy.
37:10She was so small.
37:13Yeah, Lindy's not here.
37:14Remember, Mom?
37:15I saw her.
37:16Like a little doll.
37:18She was like a real-life little Lindy doll.
37:21I think you mean one of Lulu's little dolls, Mom.
37:24No, no, I know what I saw, and I saw her on TV, too.
37:29No.
37:30Lulu?
37:31No, no, Lulu's not here either, Mom.
37:33Lulu's not here.
37:34I think you're a little confused.
37:35No, Mom, I'm not confused.
37:36Yeah.
37:37You're lying to me.
37:39I am your mother.
37:40Tell me the truth.
37:41Okay.
37:42Okay.
37:43Come on.
37:44Come on, sit down.
37:46Come on, Mom.
37:46What?
37:46Come on, just sit, sit.
37:48So, um, okay, so, um, okay, so this is, this is hard.
37:53What?
37:54This is hard, but the truth.
37:56Yeah?
37:58The truth is, um, that I put a painkiller in your tea, and hallucinations are a side effect,
38:06so there is no tiny Lindy.
38:08You want?
38:09Yeah.
38:10Why?
38:11When?
38:12Because of your back, because I know it's been bothering you, and I wanted you to relax,
38:16and, yeah.
38:17You drugged me?
38:19What kind of son drugs his own mother?
38:24Concerned son, huh?
38:25No, no, no, no.
38:26You're not sorry.
38:28You are manipulating and controlling and a liar.
38:31You are without a doubt your father's son, which breaks my fucking heart.
38:36What?
38:37Whoa, what?
38:39I failed.
38:40I'm, I'm guilty.
38:41I, I tried.
38:43I tried to protect you from this.
38:45From, from what?
38:47From becoming your father.
38:49My, well, I, I'd say you overdid it.
38:52Huh.
38:52Because I was invisible.
38:54Huh?
38:54And I still am.
38:55Yeah, that's what fucking drives me, and that's fine.
38:58But dad is a kind and fair.
39:01An asshole.
39:03Who keeps me on a tight leash.
39:05But I have made my peace with that.
39:10And my marriage is not your marriage.
39:13Whatever you have done to Lindy, and I mean whatever you have done to her, she is not me.
39:19She needs to be off the leash.
39:21She needs to be free out of anyone's control.
39:24Now, I don't know what you are hiding, but you are not remodeling.
39:28And if you are lying to me, I'd bet the farm you are lying to her and yourself.
39:33Mom.
39:35Mom, I love you.
39:36No, no.
39:37You love you.
39:39What is it your Dr. Carmichael says?
39:41Dig deep.
39:42If I were you, I'd start digging deeper than you've ever dug before.
39:47Find the truth.
39:48Keep on lying.
39:49Keep on burying.
39:50And you will lose her, if you haven't already.
39:55She was going to leave me.
39:56It was an accident.
39:57No, there are no accidents.
40:01Isn't that a chapter in your doctor's book?
40:05Tell her.
40:06Tell her what you did.
40:08Tell Lindy everything.
40:11Because until you are honest, you are fucked, dear.
40:33And that's the complete and honest truth of it.
40:37And I love you, Lindy.
40:41And I need you, Lindy.
40:44And I miss you.
41:06Where's Grandma?
41:08Uh.
41:15She left.
41:18This isn't about Grandma, is it?
41:23Mom left you.
41:29She left us, didn't she?
41:31She left us, didn't she?
41:41I'm trying to hear you, and see you, and be honest with you, if you're ever going to forgive me.
41:47And the truth is, the truth is that I was scared.
41:52You were going to leave me, and I didn't want to lose you, and so, um, I miniaturized you, on
42:03purpose, I did it.
42:07And that's the complete and honest truth.
42:09I miniaturized you, on purpose, I did it.
42:15Miniaturized you, on purpose, I did it.
42:20Miniaturized you, on purpose, I did it.
42:26Miniaturized you, on purpose.
42:37Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
43:07On purpose, I did it.
44:04On purpose, I did it.
44:10On purpose, I did it.
