:05:01
I can always drive a cab.
:05:03
You know, there are easier
things in life

:05:06
than being a drag queen,
:05:10
but I ain't got no choice.
:05:12
See, um...
:05:15
Try as I may,
:05:17
I just can't walk in flats.
:05:20
HA HA HA!
:05:23
You know, there was
one guy once.

:05:26
His name was Charlie.
:05:28
He was everything
you could want in an affair

:05:31
and more.
:05:33
Oh, he was tall.
:05:35
Handsome.
:05:37
Rich.
:05:39
Deaf.
:05:40
The deafness was the "more."
:05:42
He ain't never
yelled at me.

:05:45
Never complained
if I snored.

:05:47
All his friends
was nice and quiet.

:05:50
I even learned me some
of that deaf sign language.

:05:54
Oh, I...I remember some.
:05:58
"COCKROACH."
:06:03
means "FUCK."
:06:05
Oh, this here's
my favorite.

:06:08
MEANS "I LOVE YOU."
:06:11
AND I DID, TOO,
:06:13
BUT, UM...
:06:16
NOT...
:06:17
ENOUGH.
:06:23
You know, in my life,
:06:25
I've slept with more men
than are named or numbered

:06:29
in the Bible,
:06:31
old and new testaments
put together.

:06:33
And not once has someone said,
"Arnold, I LOVE YOU."

:06:37
That I could believe.
:06:39
And I ask myself,
"DO YOU REALLY CARE?"

:06:44
You know, the only
honest answer

:06:46
I can give myself is "YES."
:06:49
I care.
:06:51
I care a great deal.
:06:58
BUT NOT ENOUGH.
