It's so wonderfully old.
:35:10
Maybe Shakespeare and Ben Jonson
stood on this very bridge.

:35:13
You're very American.
:35:16
- Why?
- Well, romantic.

:35:19
I like things that last.
:35:21
Things last longer than people.
:35:25
I wrote to Pitt's parents today.
:35:29
Were you in love with him?
:35:30
No. I didn't know him very well.
:35:34
But he was a very nice man.
:35:38
He was on Braddock's plane.
We saw it go down.

:35:42
Your pilot, what's his name,
Rickson?

:35:45
Buzz, yeah. Buzz Rickson.
:35:47
Is he really that good?
They were making such a fuss over him.

:35:50
- The best.
- Is he?

:35:53
Yes. You see, well, I fly by the book...
:35:57
...but Buzz flies like
he's a part of the plane.

:36:00
Whenever we get into trouble, he knows
what to do without even thinking.

:36:03
He's sort of your hero, isn't he?
:36:06
I get sore at him once in a while.
We all do.

:36:08
But we wouldn't trade him
for any other pilot.

:36:10
I hope his luck holds out.
And yours.

:36:15
Right now, my luck's doing fine.
:36:19
It's started to rain again.
Shall we go somewhere until it stops?

:36:23
- What about your lab?
- No, we can't. It's against the rules.

:36:27
But we could wait in the library.
:36:29
No, not the library.
It's just something that Buzz said.

:36:34
Hey, Buzz, are you ready?
:36:37
Get it over with, will you, captain?
:36:39
Keep your pants on.
You're getting paid.

:36:41
Not by the hour.
:36:42
Ten bob if I miss.
A quid if you get hit, right?

:36:45
- Don't even mention it.
- I never miss. Except once. I was drunk.

:36:49
- What happened?
- We sent the quid to his mother...

:36:52
...and gave the guy a decent burial.
:36:54
That is true. He'll get it.
He's better than Davy Crockett.
