My mother was something else again.
:59:06
Something pretty wonderful.
:59:08
I used to go to pieces when she told
me my handwriting was improving.

:59:12
I thought so highly of that lady.
:59:15
I can hardly remember my mother.
:59:17
She died when I was a kid.
:59:19
Yes, but you see, you've got
something to take her place.

:59:23
My mother, when I was 12, started having
headaches that nearly drove her mad.

:59:28
My father, who was a doctor,
gave her aspirins for them.

:59:31
When it was too late, he stumbled on
the idea that it was a brain tumor.

:59:35
But he never did anything about it.
:59:37
One night, that lovely lady
didn't want any more of it.

:59:41
She fell out of a window.
:59:43
Only four stories, but it did the trick.
:59:47
Gee, I'm... I'm sorry.
:59:49
Thanks. You're very kind.
:59:52
Anyway, I've been in one school
or another ever since...

:59:55
...memorizing all the wrong answers.
:59:58
He pays the bills, but I don't see
him any oftener than I have to.

1:00:02
He's married again.
What he got serves him right.

1:00:07
I don't know how you feel,
but I'd like a drink.

1:00:14
Okay.
1:00:19
Good idea, putting a tip on a cigarette.
1:00:21
Tells you where you are.
You know where you are, Richard?

1:00:25
I was starting to wonder.
1:00:27
Nonsense. You'll always
know where you are.

1:00:33
So steady.
1:00:36
You and that trumpet of yours,
your devotion to it.

1:00:39
Gives you faith in yourself.
1:00:41
Yes, you know where you are.
1:00:47
Do I?
1:00:49
Where do you live?
1:00:51
Oh, at some high-class creep joint.
Musician's hangout. You wouldn't like it.

1:00:55
I'd like to see it.
1:00:58
Look, Amy, I think I'm in love with you.
