00:01What did you do before all this?
00:06Chemistry teacher. High school.
00:11But, uh...
00:12Then the world went ass over tea kettle,
00:14and I realized that there was a real deficit of people willing to get their hands dirty.
00:22We could take the baby.
00:24We don't have much, but we could find a way.
00:34It's a promise I can't break.
00:37The babies are built to survive. They're resilient.
00:40They've been found in the rubble of earthquakes three days after the fact, alive and well.
00:50The night before Annie died, she was telling me about this storm she saw.
00:57In the last few nights, I can't stop thinking about it.
01:04She said she was afraid of what storms will come.
01:09That's how she put it. What storms will come.
01:18I've been doing a lot of reading these past few years.
01:22I read this one book where 72,000 years ago there was this volcano that went off in Sumatra.
01:31It drove the human population of the entire planet down to just a thousand people.
01:35Mm-hmm.
01:37So you, me, everyone we have ever met,
01:41we are all descended from that same thousand people who just happened to survive.
01:47I think my wife and I had about a quarter of that number at our wedding alone.
01:52I'm not allowed to think about how.
01:59At least that time it wasn't our own fucking fault.
02:06Yeah, I look at Tony sometimes and I think,
02:10I cannot goddamn believe I'm his grandma.
02:14It seems like just yesterday I was sneaking off under the bleachers at the football games,
02:20trying to get laid with my first boyfriend.
02:26Now, here I am, an old woman, looking after a snotty little boy with my same eyes.
02:38wondering what he'll have to live through.
02:42How did it all happen? Just like...
02:47We all forget how close we are in time.
02:50How quickly our sins become our children's burdens.
02:57You should give that thing a test drive.
03:06Who is it?
03:06A student's a good one.
03:06It's an amazing one.
