1:23:00
You're anxious to know
what I’m going to say.

1:23:04
You're a big boy now.
1:23:06
So I’ll talk to you man to man.
1:23:13
Can you tell me -
1:23:15
can you explain to me
1:23:19
what a lie is
1:23:21
and what the truth is?
1:23:29
You think that was a stupid question,
and it probably was.

1:23:31
I was just kidding with you.
1:23:33
Of course you know what a lie is
and what the truth is, don't you?

1:23:38
Splendid, my boy..
1:23:41
I am satisfied.
1:23:45
You also know why one lies.
1:23:51
Why does one lie?
1:23:56
Why does one lie?
1:23:58
Can you explain to me why one lies?
1:24:03
Because you don't
want to tell the truth.

1:24:10
A very sly answer, my young friend.
1:24:14
But you won't get off so easily.
1:24:17
I asked you...
1:24:22
why does one not tell the truth?
1:24:25
I don't know.
1:24:29
We have plenty of time, Alexander,
1:24:31
and I'm so interested in your answer
1:24:33
that I'am prepared for
to wait indefinitely.

1:24:37
You may not believe that,
but it's true.

1:24:40
One lies to gain an advantage.
1:24:44
Good answer, my boy.
1:24:47
Good and concise.
1:24:50
Forgive me if I ask another question,
a bit more personal this time.

1:24:57
Can you explain to your mother and me
why you lied at school?
