...calculation costs...
:17:06
...from first-edition hardcover to,
sorry, softcover.
:17:09
And after softcover,
it's somebody else's problem.
:17:12
Boy, that sounds real exciting.
:17:14
Why does it sound exciting?
It's not exciting.
:17:17
Why not?
:17:20
Your calculations determine whether
a book is published or not.
:17:24
You know, maybe it's a book
that changes the way people think...
:17:28
...or, you know, act.
:17:29
Yeah, but what we publish is
mostly trashy romance novels.
:17:33
Don't say that.
:17:35
There's nothing trashy about romance.
:17:39
In romance is passion.
:17:43
There's imagination. There's beauty.
:17:48
Besides, you find...
:17:50
...some wonderful things
in the trash.
:18:05
Oh, dumplings.
:18:06
I could eat all of these.
:18:10
Would you like a dumpling?
:18:13
-Some tea?
-Yes, please.
:18:21
There you go.
:18:36
Oh, boy.
:18:48
Sorry.
:18:58
It's hot.
