:20:01
Maybe... maybe you could take me
to a movie tonight?
:20:05
- I have to do some Twelfth Step work.
- Again?
:20:08
It's important. You help yourself
by helping other alcoholics.
:20:12
Alcoholics are mostly disappointed men.
:20:15
Oh. Sure, I know.
:20:21
You wasn't ever disappointed,
were you, Doc?
:20:24
The thing is not to dwell on the past,
:20:26
to live each day as it comes,
and stay sober doing it.
:20:33
- Who are you gonna help tonight?
- Some fellow they found on skid row.
:20:37
He's down at the city hospital.
I kind of dread it.
:20:40
You said it helped you.
:20:43
It does if you can stand it.
:20:45
I did some Twelfth Step work
there myself once before.
:20:49
They put the alcoholics
in with the crazy people.
:20:52
Horrible.
:20:54
These men, all twisted and shaking.
:20:57
Eyes all foggy and full of pain.
:20:59
One fellow had his hands clamped
together so he wouldn't kill anyone.
:21:03
There was a young man,
scratched his eyes out.
:21:07
Oh, don't, Daddy.
:21:09
It's awful they take 'em there,
just 'cause they get drunk.
:21:12
They'll sober him up, that's the
important thing. Let's not talk about it.
:21:17
Maybe Marie
can go to a movie with you.
:21:20
No, she's probably going out
somewheres with Turk.
:21:26
She shouldn't be going out
with a fellow like Turk.
:21:29
I don't know why you say that.
Turk's nice.
:21:32
Fellow like that has no respect
for nice, young girls.
:21:35
I can tell just by looking at him.
:21:39
You think every girl is like Jennifer
Jones in The Song of Bernadette.
:21:43
I like to believe that young people
like her are clean and decent.
:21:47
- Hi.
- Hi, honey. My, you're up early.
:21:51
- You want any breakfast?
- No, thank you.
:21:53
It's such a nice morning,
why don't you walk with me?
:21:56
- Yeah, Daddy, it'll do you good.
- I might come home for lunch.
