The thing is...
:03:04
l'm wearing that horse's head myself...
:03:07
all reined up in old language
and old assumptions...

:03:10
straining to jump clean-hoofed onto
a new track of being l only suspect is there.

:03:15
l can't see it, because my educated, average
head is being held at the wrong angle.

:03:19
l can't jump, because the bit forbids it,
and my own basic force...

:03:24
my horsepower, if you like...
:03:27
is too little.
:03:29
The only thing l know for sure, is this.
:03:31
A horse's head is finally unknowable to me.
:03:35
Yet l handle children's heads,
which l presume to be more complicated...

:03:39
at least in the area of my chief concern.
:03:43
ln a way, it has nothing to do with this boy.
:03:45
The doubts have been there for years,
piling up steadily in this dreary place.

:03:49
lt's the extremity of this case that's made
them active. l know extremity is the point.

:03:54
All the same, whatever the reasons, these
doubts are not just vaguely worrying...

:03:58
but intolerable!
:04:08
Forgive me.
:04:11
l'm not making much sense.
:04:14
Let me start proper/y, in order.
:04:20
Come on. Break it up. Come on!
:04:25
...through this gate, into another field.
l couldn't see it.

:04:28
But l knew l had to get through that gate.
lf l did, l could see everything.

:04:33
All right.
:04:39
-Take one, Mary Ann.
-l don't want one.

:04:41
-Mary Ann, come on.
-Don't bother me.

:04:45
-You don't have to listen to them always.
-l know, but--

:04:49
-You want one, take one.
-Don't be so ignorant!

:04:52
All right. All right, now. Settle down.
:04:58
That's no good. Shall we smash it?
