:34:00
I haven't eaten like this in years.
:34:04
I never ate like this.
:34:05
And now you know
what you've been missing.
:34:08
- There was a world once, you punk.
- Yes. So you keep telling me.
:34:11
I was there. I can prove it.
:34:15
I know. I know.
:34:18
When you were young,
people were better.
:34:21
Oh, nuts. People were always rotten.
:34:26
But the world was beautiful.
:34:31
It's late.
:34:33
I gotta get to work.
:34:35
What have you dug up on Simonson?
:34:38
I've got a handful of reference work
20 years out of date.
:34:40
You throw out a name
and you expect a miracle.
:34:43
Simonson, Sol. Report, huh?
:34:46
Schmuck.
