:33:03
Now this is for Ritalin.
:33:06
10 milligrams a day.
:33:08
Is that a tranquilizer?
:33:10
It's a stimulant.
:33:11
A stimulant? My God,
she's higher than a kite now.

:33:14
Her condition isn't quite what it seems.
:33:16
Nobody knows the cause
of hyperkinetic behavior in a child.

:33:19
The Ritalin seems to work
to relieve the condition.

:33:22
And as to how or why,
we really don't know.

:33:24
But her symptoms could be overreaction
to depression.

:33:28
That's out of my field.
:33:31
My daughter isn't depressed.
:33:33
You mentioned her father
and the separation....

:33:38
Do you think I should take her
to a psychiatrist?

:33:40
No. I think we should wait
and see what happens with the Ritalin.

:33:44
I think that's the answer.
:33:46
Let's wait two, three weeks.
:33:48
All right. And the lies she's been telling?
That's part of it?

:33:52
.Lies?
.Like saying her bed's shaking.

:33:57
Have you ever known
your daughter to swear?

:34:00
.To use obscenities?
.No, never.

:34:04
Interesting.
:34:07
Similar to things like her lying...
:34:10
....it's uncharacteristic.
.I don't understand. She doesn't swear.

:34:15
She let loose quite a string
while I was examining her.

:34:19
I find that hard to believe.
What did she say?

:34:24
Her vocabulary is rather extensive.
:34:27
Well, give me an example. Like what?
:34:29
Specifically, what did she say?
:34:32
Specifically, Mrs. MacNeil...
:34:35
...she advised me to keep my fingers
away from her...

:34:39
...goddamned cunt.
:34:45
I can't believe it.
:34:51
You don't think a psychiatrist....
:34:53
No. I think the best explanation
is always the simplest.

:34:57
We'll wait. We'll wait and see.
