:11:00
Left home.
I never saw him again.
:11:02
Charlie, after a year
we've been together...
:11:04
this is the first time
I've heard this story.
:11:07
It's strange, huh?
:11:08
I mean, how can you keep all this
inside you and not say anything?
:11:12
When I was a kid and I got scared,
the Rain Man would come and sing to me.
:11:18
The rain what?
:11:20
You know, one of those
imaginary childhood friends.
:11:24
- What happened to him?
- Nothin'. I just grew up.
:11:29
Not so much.
:11:31
'And I remember, too,
the day you left home...
:11:34
so full of bitterness
and grandiose ideas.
:11:37
So full of yourself.
:11:39
And being raised without a mother,
the hardness of your heart...
:11:41
is understandable as well.
:11:44
Your refusal to even pretend
that you loved or respected me...
:11:47
all these I forgive.
:11:49
But your failure to write, to telephone,
to reenter my Life in any way...
:11:52
has left me without a son.
:11:55
I wish you all I ever wanted for you.
I wish you the best.'
:12:04
'l hereby bequeath to my son,
Charles Sanford Babbitt...
:12:07
that certain Buick convertible...
:12:09
the very car that, unfortunately,
brought our relationship to an end.
:12:14
Also, outright title to my
prizewinning hybrid rose bushes.
:12:18
May they remind him
of the value of excellence...
:12:20
and the possibility of perfection.
:12:22
As for my home and all other property,
real and personal...
:12:25
these shall be placed in trust
in accordance with the terms of...
:12:28
that certain instrument
executed concurrently herewith.'
:12:31
What does that mean?
:12:33
It means that the estate,
in excess of $3 million...
:12:37
after expenses and taxes,
will go into a trust fund...
:12:41
for a beneficiary
to be named in this document.
:12:44
- Who is that?
- I'm afraid I can't tell you that.
:12:47
- Who controls the money? You?
- No. He's called a trustee.
:12:50
What is that?
How does that work?
:12:53
Forgive me,
but there's nothing more I can say.
:12:56
I'm sorry, son.
I can see that you're disappointed.
:12:59
Why should I be disappointed?
I got rose bushes, didn't l?
