:29:01
-Were you shocked?
-No, surprised.
:29:05
I'm often taken by surprise.
:29:07
You're quite good at it.
:29:09
I don't usually do that.
:29:12
I follow my instincts,
it's always worked before.
:29:14
Even when it's serious?
:29:17
If you were seriously in love with me...
:29:20
...would you have done that,
at the risk of ruining everything?
:29:24
Certainly.
:29:26
What proof do you have that
I'm not seriously in love with you?
:29:29
What you just did.
:29:30
-That's not proof.
-lt is.
:29:34
I'm not in love with you, but I could be.
:29:41
In a way, I want to be.
:29:43
If I acted so suddenly...
:29:45
...it's because I didn't want to be trapped
by your strategy.
:29:49
My strategy? What strategy?
:29:52
The one to normalize or sterilize,
to remove the erotic from our interaction.
:29:58
I'm your friend's father, I'm taboo.
:30:01
There's no unspoken seduction, as you say.
:30:04
I don't like that.
:30:05
Instead of making me comfortable,
it chills me. I feel stiff and awkward.
:30:11
I like desiring and being desired...
:30:14
...especially when it's unspoken,
even if it goes nowhere.
:30:19
The frantic and possessive love
I had for Eve took away my taste for it.
:30:23
It came back when I saw you,
not the first time...
:30:26
...when you were leaving the bathroom,
but at dinner.
:30:30
You're not listening?
:30:32
-I know what you're thinking.
-Tell me.
:30:36
Something like, "I've heard this all before."
:30:40
That's not what I was thinking.
:30:43
-What were you thinking about?
-My class, Monday afternoon.
:30:49
The present situation
doesn't interest you at all!
:30:52
The situation is what made me think of it.
:30:56
I was trying to remember
what I was thinking when I said yes.
:30:59
-Transcendental thought?
-More like psychology.
