:19:01
- My bag?
- Go to Copenhagen now. Right now.
:19:05
Are you crazy, Peter?
:19:07
That was a story I was telling.
Didn't you understand that?
:19:11
Of course I understood,
but part of it must be like you imagined,
:19:15
and maybe even great carriages
with fine horses,
:19:18
beautiful houses three storeys high.
:19:20
Don't you want to see it for yourself? It's
not so far from here - your bag's packed.
:19:25
All you have to do is walk out of that door.
Quick! Before you change your mind.
:19:31
Before I change my mind? Who said
I was going? Just like that, this afternoon?
:19:36
What's got into you, Peter, anyway?
:19:38
You forgot about Copenhagen
all these years.
:19:41
You may forget about it again
until you're too old to go.
:19:45
No, some day I'm really going
to Copenhagen.
:19:48
- That's the one thing I'm sure of.
- Who knows?
:19:51
Has anyone from this village gone
to Copenhagen before? Of course not.
:19:55
They keep putting it off.
Imagine, Hans, you'll be the first.
:19:59
What a to-do there'll be tomorrow.
They'll talk of nothing else for days.
:20:04
"Hans has gone to Copenhagen!"
:20:08
"Hans has gone to Copenhagen."
:20:15
Yes!
:20:17
What a sign it would make! "Hans
Christian Andersen, gone to Copenhagen"
:20:22
with little shoes pointing
the way out of town!
:20:25
I'll make the sign tonight. I see it exactly
as you do - the little shoes, everything!
:20:31
Goodbye, Hans. Aren't you excited?
:20:34
Excited? You mean
I really should go, Peter?
:20:37
Why not? It's only a few days away.
:20:40
You stay a little while and then come
back, but you've been to Copenhagen.
:20:44
But it's a big step, Peter.
:20:46
Still, what's to stop me?
:20:50
My goodness, I am getting excited!
:20:53
Hans!
:20:54
If anyone had told me this morning
that I'd decide to go to Copenhagen...
:20:59
- Start walking!
- Imagine, Peter.
