:52:01
to dwell on while I ask you these questions
required by the state of New York to...

:52:06
legally bind you...
sinister phrase, that...

:52:09
is that not only are the legal questions
I ask you meaningless...

:52:14
but so too are the inner questions that
you ask yourselves meaningless.

:52:18
Feeling one's partner
does not matter.

:52:21
Sexual disappointment
does not matter.

:52:23
Nothing can hurt if you do not see it
as being hurtful.

:52:26
Nothing can destroy if you do not
see it as destructive.

:52:30
It is all part of life...
:52:32
part of what we are.
:52:35
So now, Alfred...
:52:38
"Do you take Patricia to be
your lawfully wedded wife...

:52:41
to love..."whatever that means...
"to honor...

:52:44
to keep her in sickness, in health,
in prosperity and adversity..."

:52:47
What nonsense!
:52:49
"Forsaking all others..."
What a shocking invasion of privacy.

:52:53
Rephrase that to more sensibly say...
:52:56
"If you choose to have affairs, then you
won't feel guilty about them."

:53:00
'As long as you both shall live..."
:53:02
Or as long as you're not
tired of one another.

:53:04
- Yeah.
- And, Patsy...

:53:06
"Do you take Alfred to be
your lawfully wedded husband, to love..."

:53:09
That harmful word again. Could not one
more wisely say..."communicate"?

:53:15
"To honor..." I suppose by that it means you
won't cut his balls off, but some men like that.

:53:19
"To obey..."
:53:21
Well, my first glance at you told me
you were not the type to obey.

:53:25
So I went to my thesaurus, and I came back
with these alternatives.

:53:29
"To show devotion, to be loyal...
:53:32
to show fealty, to answer the helm,
to be pliant."

:53:36
General enough, I think, and still leave
plenty of room to dominate.

:53:40
"In sickness, in health..." and all the rest
of that gobbledygook...

:53:43
"so long as you both shall live?"
:53:52
[Grunting Softly]
:53:57
[Mumbles Quickly]
I do.
