:26:01
Why? What do you mean?
:26:03
From now on, I shall spend
most of my time studying.
:26:05
My examination's coming up
in less than two weeks, you know.
:26:09
So soon? I haven't realized.
:26:11
Yes. I have been here
six months.
:26:13
It's the middle of June.
:26:14
The term is nearly over.
:26:16
How fast it goes.
:26:18
Yes.
:26:19
You know a short time ago
that tree was a skeleton.
:26:22
I always used to look forward
to my summer in my country
:26:25
but I'm only there
at stray moments now
:26:26
when I go to visit my parents.
:26:28
They have this small place
outside of Paris at Sol.
:26:30
I used to take long walks
towards the woods there
:26:33
with my brother, Jacques.
:26:35
So nice to be walking
in the country.
:26:36
My father loves to walk.
:26:38
Your father?
Is he here in Paris?
:26:40
Oh, no. In Warsaw
:26:42
but we get out of the city
now and then.
:26:44
Warsaw. But you're not thinking
going to Warsaw.
:26:47
Of course.
:26:48
But when?
:26:48
As soon as
I finished my examinations.
:26:50
But for how long?
:26:51
Why for... Why, Dr. Curie.
:26:53
You forget that if I passed
my examinations
:26:55
I'm going back to Poland
to teach.
:26:56
Well, I knew that...
wish I knew when we first came,
:26:59
but everything is changed now.
:27:00
You are making experiments
of your own
:27:02
I know it.
I shall miss Paris, too.
:27:04
But this is absurd, fantastic.
:27:06
Why, it never occurred to me.
:27:07
Oh, I...
I haven't planned on this at all.
:27:09
How could you dream of
doing such a thing
:27:11
abandoning science
when your making such progress.
:27:15
My father is getting old.
He misses me.
:27:17
If you stay on in Poland
:27:18
you can't possibly go on
with your studies.
:27:20
Anyone can teach
but you can do more
:27:22
much more.
:27:23
You have a talent
a definite talent
:27:25
and it's your duty to use it.
:27:26
We've so much to be done
:27:27
so much to
that's still undreamed of.
:27:29
Oh, Mademoiselle.
I beg you to reconsider.
:27:33
Why, that's very kind of you
Dr. Curie
:27:36
I'm really flattered.
:27:38
I'm afraid
I can't give up the entire plan
:27:41
that I have had for so long.
:27:48
I thought, of course, you knew.
:27:52
I do not understand
:27:53
how anyone
with a scientific mind
:27:57
can entertain the thought of
abandoning science.
