Sorry, he’s working.
He’s translating some Russian poetry.

:19:09
When that door’s locked,
I can’t bother him.

:19:13
I suspect the only reason Mrs. Hallet
lets us into her village...

:19:16
...is because my father’s a poet.
:19:18
Mrs. Hallet loves poets.
:19:20
That’s one of his books over there.
:19:23
- He wrote that, huh?
- Yeah.

:19:25
Want him to sign a copy for you?
:19:27
Yeah, sure. I never met a real poet.
:19:30
I mean, look, don’t laugh at me...
:19:33
...but I can’t believe
people like poetry.

:19:35
I’m not talking about that
birthday-card stuff, but real poetry.

:19:39
I mean, when it doesn’t even rhyme.
:19:42
No, I’m not laughing at you.
:19:43
My father says that most people
who say they like poetry...

:19:46
...only pretend to like it.
You’re honest.

:19:49
He’s your favorite poet, huh?
:19:50
No. He’s my father.
:19:53
Emily Dickinson’s my favorite.
:19:56
Emily Dickinson, yeah.
:19:58
You know, it can be pretty nice here
in the village once you get used to it.

:20:02
And just don’t let Mrs. Hallet
hassle you.

:20:04
Her son says I’m a pretty girl.
:20:07
That what he said?
:20:09
What is he, a pervert?
:20:13
I guess that means little girls
shouldn’t accept candy from him.

:20:16
- Not if they’re smart little girls.
- Don’t worry, I won’t.

:20:19
I’m glad you came by, though.
:20:21
Yeah, me too, I’m glad, but...
:20:23
Do you like turkey?
:20:25
Well, to tell you the truth, no.
:20:27
You know, birds are reptiles
from way back.

:20:30
Biologically.
:20:31
Yeah, well, then I guess you don’t
wanna buy a raffle ticket, huh?

:20:34
You mean if we buy a raffle ticket,
we might win a turkey?

:20:37
For Thanksgiving.
Yeah, a big 20-pounder.

:20:40
- A big turkey, huh?
- Yeah.

:20:42
Yeah, all right, we'll take two tickets.
:20:54
Two dollars.
:20:56
Look, I really hate to do this,
you know? I mean...
