:57:01
Well, you see, it has to do with you.
With your being ill.

:57:05
- She doesn't trust me with the money?
- 50 grand is chickenfeed to Aunt Vi.

:57:10
- Then what is it?
- When you went off your rocker...

:57:14
Shut up, Mama. Cathy's not
that far gone. Are you, Cathy?

:57:18
- When I went off my rocker...?
- Yeah. You said something.

:57:21
You made up some crazy story
about Sebastian.

:57:24
- When she heard whatever it was...
- Last night...

:57:27
...not a word would she say,
except that you babbled.

:57:30
That's her word for it. You babbled
some story about Sebastian...

:57:34
...and how he lived and...
- Died...

:57:38
...in a place called Cabeza de Lobo.
:57:41
What you said gave her a real turn.
:57:44
When doctors decided you were crazy,
she wanted you to stay at St. Mary's.

:57:49
Or even right here.
This seems such a nice place too.

:57:53
- With that nice, capable doctor.
- Go on.

:57:56
Written permission was needed
to keep you here.

:57:59
So that was the point
of the private supper.

:58:03
You've gotta understand...
:58:05
This 100 grand is important to us.
:58:08
It means George will have all sorts
of advantages now.

:58:11
Things we couldn't give him, since 1929
killed your father and our nest egg.

:58:15
Mother, you didn't sign those papers?
:58:18
- You didn't commit me to Lions View?
- Not yet.

:58:21
But, Cathy, the way Aunt Vi put it,
there was no choice at all.

:58:25
Mama's gotta sign.
:58:26
Besides, honey, it's not like
it was for always.

:58:30
In no time,
after the little operation...

:58:33
...you'll be able to...
:58:37
What little operation?
:58:40
Oh, Cathy!
:58:44
There's only one little operation
they perform here.

:58:48
It's on the brain.
It's called a lobotomy.

:58:51
You may have heard of it
or read about it. I have.

:58:55
It's that nice young doctor's
specialty.

:58:58
In cases of hopeless lunacy...
