:51:03
I must have been
talking for an hour.

:51:06
Anything else?
Anything you haven't told me?

:51:10
That's all there is.
That's the whole story.

:51:15
He's been following me.
That's all there is to it.

:51:18
- It isn't that simple though, is it?
- What do you mean?

:51:23
He could hardly have been
in the park this afternoon,

:51:25
or one of us men
would have seen him.

:51:28
And that night in the hallway,
you said yourself the landlady
came up a minute later...

:51:32
and she didn't see him,
did she?

:51:35
What are you
driving at?

:51:37
It's been less than a week
since you were in a car
that crashed into the river.

:51:42
How you got out of that
no one seems to know.

:51:45
But that experience must have been
a serious emotional shock.

:51:49
You think I imagined all of it,
don't you? You think I'm insane?

:51:53
I didn't say that.
I don't mean that.

:51:55
I'm a competent person.
If anything, I'm a realist.

:51:59
I'm not given
to imagining anything.

:52:02
Hogwash.
:52:04
All of us
imagine things.

:52:08
Have you ever heard two men
talking behind your back...

:52:11
and imagined they were
talking about you?

:52:14
Have you never imagined
you saw someone you knew,

:52:17
and walked up to them and found
they were a perfect stranger ?

:52:20
- I don't see what this
has to do with it.
- The point is this.

:52:24
Our imaginations
play tricks on us.

:52:27
They often misinterpret
what we see and hear. Do you agree?

:52:31
I suppose so.
:52:34
If that can happen in ordinary times,
go a step further.

:52:38
Look what can happen in a high fever,
or following a serious emotional shock.

:52:44
It doesn't seem possible
that I could have imagined all of it.

:52:48
Does this man, this figure,
resemble anyone you've ever known?

:52:53
- An acquaintance or your father?
- No.

:52:56
- Do you have a boyfriend
here or back home?
- I have no desire for one.
