:22:00
There's a strong possibility that
the patient will always be limited.
:22:04
Relieved of acute anxiety,
yes, but limited.
:22:07
But what a blessing to them, doctor,
to be just peaceful.
:22:13
To be just suddenly peaceful.
:22:16
After all that horror...
:22:19
...after those nightmares...
:22:21
...just to be able to lift up
their eyes to a sky...
:22:25
...not black with savage,
devouring birds.
:22:27
You said a sky filled
with savage, devouring birds?
:22:31
Did I?
:22:32
How odd. I hadn't thought
about all that in years.
:22:35
Now, why should I suddenly...?
:22:37
Yes, we saw those birds
one summer in the Pacific.
:22:42
You see, my son
Sebastian was looking for...
:22:46
- Looking for what?
- Rare, hungry birds.
:22:50
- That's not what you started to say.
- You're too quick for me.
:22:54
I was going to say my son
Sebastian was looking for God.
:22:58
I stopped myself.
I thought you'd think:
:23:01
"What a pretentious young crackpot."
Which Sebastian was not.
:23:06
This is something
I've never told anyone before.
:23:09
Something so terrible.
:23:11
Forgive me if I sound quite mad,
but it's true all the same.
:23:15
Sebastian saw the face of God.
:23:19
I'd like to hear about that.
:23:21
Yes, yes.
:23:24
One long ago summer,
sitting right here in this garden...
:23:29
...Sebastian said,
"Mother, listen to this."
:23:32
And he read me
Herman Melville's description...
:23:35
...of the Encantadas,
the Galapagos Islands.
:23:39
He read me that description
and said we had to go there.
:23:43
So we did go there that summer...
:23:45
...on a boat,
a four-masted schooner...
:23:48
...the sort of boat that Melville
would have sailed on.
:23:52
We saw the Encantadas.
:23:54
But on the Encantadas
we saw something...
:23:57
...that he hadn't written about.
:23:59
We saw the sea turtles
crawl out of the sea...
