:24:03
You didn't really want
to buy the stones, did you?

:24:07
Not really, no.
:24:09
You're the first officer who's
come here and not bought jewels.

:24:12
Am I?
:24:13
All of them come for jewels,
so I assumed that you had, too.

:24:18
That is why I took you to those people.
You should have said.

:24:21
It was very interesting. It's just that
I have no one in particular to give jewels to.

:24:27
No one? I'm sorry.
:24:30
No need to be sorry.
:24:34
The doctor tells me that your
sister comes from Rangoon. You too?

:24:37
Yes. I was
at the university there.

:24:40
- Studying what?
- The humanities.

:24:43
It's not very much use to me here.
But I have learned a little about nursing,

:24:46
so now I help the doctor
with the sick in the village.

:24:49
- Are there many sick?
- I'm afraid there are.

:24:52
How do they feel about us being here?
:24:55
It's been explained to them
that it is necessary.

:24:58
It's been explained to us, too,
that it's necessary.

:25:05
Down there's the river.
We swim there.

:25:09
Any crocodiles?
:25:11
No, no crocodiles.
:25:14
Very nice here.
:25:16
Next time I fly over this place,
it'll seem more friendly.

:25:22
Didn't it seem friendly before?
:25:26
Never thought about it.
:25:29
Most of you people
hate it here, don't you?

:25:32
You long for home.
:25:34
I don't.
:25:36
Not ever?
:25:38
Nope.
:25:42
Well, I guess the doctor will
be wanting to get back to camp.
