..is that some people are survivors and
some let life's tragedies annihilate them.
:08:08
- This is just one of the cruelties of living.
- And in your book that idea is moving.
:08:14
But the story of a 14-year-old girl
who kills her mother's lover is... sleazy.
:08:20
And the trial was sleazy
and he was sleazy.
:08:23
And my mother was
completely unconcerned.
:08:28
I'm sorry.
:08:30
I'm sorry. I'll get you those pages.
:08:33
And they're good, you know, despite what
you think. I won't let you tear them up.
:08:43
:08:54
- Very good. I'm very impressed.
- You liked that?
:09:01
Oh!
:09:02
I didn't know
you were a pool player.
:09:06
Now you know.
:09:11
Did you ever get a chance
to play that record I got you?
:09:14
Yeah. Yeah, I did.
:09:16
I play it all the time.
:09:18
It's so beautiful.
I was just listening to it last night.
:09:23
Somehow I knew you'd like it.
:09:27
Did I hear you say
your book was about survival?
:09:31
Yeah, well, it's not really about survival.
It's about, you know. It's about everything.
:09:36
Oh, really?
Like the Encyclopaedia Britannica.
:09:41
Excuse me.
I'd better get those papers and work.
:09:45
Howard, it's so unlike you to be rude.
:09:48
We don't need another book on survival.
We already have the Boy Scout manual.
:09:52
Lane says he's talented.
:09:54
Well, if he's such a hotshot, why's he
wasting his life on Madison Avenue?
:09:59
It's because writing beer and
deodorant ads is more within his grasp.
