:38:01
- Sent by my aunt?
- Yes.
:38:03
- As I haven't responded to treatment.
- So they say.
:38:07
You've been invited to try
your hand at what is a hopeless case.
:38:11
Is it hopeless? What do you think?
:38:18
- Where are you from?
- Lions View.
:38:26
The state asylum.
:38:29
Where they have the Drum.
:38:31
What you call the Drum
is not a torture chamber.
:38:35
It's really a recreation hall.
:38:38
They'll keep me there forever.
:38:41
Like an animal in a cage.
:38:45
- She is merciless, isn't she?
- Who?
:38:48
Aunt Violet. Why else
do you think I'm here?
:38:51
Where no one can see me, hear me?
:38:54
You sound as if you think
she hates you.
:38:57
Doesn't she?
:38:58
Do you hate her?
:39:01
What, hate?
:39:03
No. I don't understand what hate is...
:39:06
...or how anyone could hate
and still be sane.
:39:10
I really do think I am sane...
:39:12
...despite considerable evidence
to the contrary.
:39:16
- Your aunt, Mrs. Venable...
- Can no more help herself than I could.
:39:22
Help herself? How do you mean?
:39:25
You see, we all loved Sebastian.
:39:27
Women, men, children, animal,
mineral, vegetable...
:39:32
Sebastian was a vocation, not a man.
:39:37
Poor Aunt Vi was hooked
from the beginning.
:39:40
Loved Sebastian and nobody else.
:39:43
She gave up everything for Sebastian.
:39:46
Even her husband.
:39:48
What was Mr. Venable like?
:39:51
Mr. Venable was a good man...
:39:54
...but dull to the point of genius.
:39:58
That was Sebastian talking.
