Then?
:55:02
And then you told me off
for being fragile...

:55:05
but I still said, he's got something
up his sleeve he wants to sell.

:55:09
An oil well, an invention,
or an emerald mine.

:55:14
The last young man we took on
had an emerald mine.

:55:17
And will you believe it,
I even bet you didn't fish?

:55:20
And you lost.
:55:23
"Live and learn, Connie, my angel," I said.
:55:27
"Next time, don't bet on men."
:55:32
What are you thinking?
:55:36
I haven't hurt you, have I?
I didn't mean to hurt you.

:55:40
It was just my way of saying
I hope we can be friends.

:55:45
That's about the nicest thing
that's been said to me this lifetime.

:55:50
- Friends?
- Yes, please.

:55:54
Then you do forgive me?
:55:56
Don't apologize for suspecting people,
Connie. Keep right on.

:56:01
Ring every coin you meet.
:56:03
There are lots of wooden nickels
in circulation.

:56:09
Come on.
:56:11
No, I want to talk.
:56:13
You're the first person in years.
:56:15
You're in for it, my lad.
The story of my life.

:56:18
The kitten who died when I was six,
and my great-aunt Matilde...

:56:22
and all those twisted newspaper stories
you read about my romances...

:56:26
and why they weren't romances.
:56:29
There aren't going to be any more
twisted stories.

:56:31
What do you think a paper
could make of this?

:56:33
And couldn't they just?
You, me, here alone on a raft?

:56:38
Single note of the chime
indicates exactly 11:00.

:56:42
11:00. Lights out.
:56:44
And who are you, Cinderella's brother?
:56:47
- What happens at the stroke of 12:00?
- You'll never know. I hope.

:56:52
- Come on, I'll race you.
- All right.
