:26:05
Aggie, did you see that?
She knew what I was saying.
:26:08
Oh, tosh.
:26:09
She can hear. Belinda, come here!
:26:14
- I tell you she understands, woman.
- You're wandering in your head.
:26:18
- But she came when I called her.
- She was reading your lips.
:26:22
She's been a very good pupil.
:26:25
Belinda, how do you say hello to a friend?
:26:31
That's right.
:26:33
"I am happy to see you."
:26:36
And I'm happy to see you.
:26:38
- Telling me she can talk that way?
- Of course.
:26:41
We've been studying
from a book of signs...
:26:44
which were devised by a Frenchman
a couple of hundred years ago...
:26:47
the Abbe de L'Epee, he was a priest.
:26:49
See, each word has its own sign.
For instance, there's "man."
:26:53
The sign is this: touching the hat brim.
:26:56
- And what would "woman" be?
- This. Comes from a bonnet string.
:27:01
And that's "mother."
Baby. You see, woman with a child.
:27:05
It's beyond believing. It's as clear as day.
:27:08
And that is the sign for "day."
:27:10
You see, this represents the horizon and
this is the sun coming up over the horizon.
:27:14
This is noon
with the sun directly overhead.
:27:17
Afternoon, evening, and night
when the sun has disappeared completely.
:27:22
Good morning.
:27:24
Good night.
:27:28
And that's "bread."
:27:35
What is it? It's a butterfly. Sure.
:27:41
It is a butterfly. It flutters.
:27:44
Aggie!
:27:46
Aggie, come here.
:27:48
- I got something.
- What?
:27:49
Look sharp now. Think fast.
What does this mean?
:27:53
- It means you've gone loony.
- It's a butterfly. Look.
:27:56
Don't go waving your hands at me,
I'm not the Dummy.
:27:59
And if you want to have any bread to eat
while I'm gone, leave me be.
