:17:02
They probably sit on the floor
with wine and cheese,
:17:06
and mispronounce
"allegorical" and "didacticism".
:17:09
I get the feeling that Yale really likes her.
:17:12
Well, I don't believe
in extramarital relationships.
:17:15
I think people should mate for life
like pigeons or Catholics.
:17:19
I don't know. Maybe people weren't
meant to have one deep relationship.
:17:24
Maybe we're meant to have a series
of relationships of different lengths.
:17:28
- That's gone out of date.
- Don't tell me what's gone out of date.
:17:32
You're 177. You were brought up
on drugs and television and the pill.
:17:35
I... I was World War II.
I was in the trenches.
:17:38
- You were eight in World War II.
- Right. I was never in the trenches.
:17:42
I was caught right in the middle.
It was a very tough position.
:17:45
Get the groceries, will you?
:17:49
Good morning and welcome to
Human Beings Wow!
:17:52
We're talking this evening with Gregory
and Caroline Payne Whitney Smith,
:17:56
close friends of the Carter family.
:17:58
We're normal people.
Just like you, we're in debt.
:18:01
Except that Mrs Payne Whitney Smith
is a catatonic.
:18:04
Well, we don't consider her
a catatonic, just quiet.
:18:08
Jesus, this is the worst.
This is really embarrassing to me.
:18:12
- I mean, I... This is so antiseptic...
- No, wrong. That's very chancy material.
:18:17
- How do you see this as chancy?
- Who fights more with the censor?
:18:21
What has the censor got to do with it?
There's no substance to the comedy.
:18:25
- You don't find this insightful?
- Worse than not insightful. It's not funny.
:18:29
- There's not a legitimate laugh.
- That's funny.
:18:32
- Look at the audience.
- You're going by audience reaction?
:18:35
This is an audience raised on TV.
:18:37
Their standards have been lowered
over the years.
:18:41
They watch their sets and the gamma
rays eat the white cells of their brains out.
:18:45
- I quit. I can't write this any more.
- Relax. Take a lude.
:18:49
I don't want a lude. All you do is drop
ludes, then Percodans and angel dust.
:18:54
Naturally, it seems funny.
Anything would if you're...
:18:58
You should abandon the show
and open a pharmaceutical house. I quit.
