Oh, there's a world
worth saving.

:18:09
At dawn on the first of May...
:18:10
the choristers from the choir school
stand here and sing to the rising sun.

:18:16
They said they draw
quite a crowd.

:18:17
Hmm. What do they sing?
:18:19
Can't say I've ever risen
early enough to hear them.

:18:21
Oh, why not?
I mean, it sounds wonderful.

:18:24
Well, I don't really go in
for seeing the sights.

:18:27
Oh. So what do you do,
just walk around with your eyes shut?

:18:33
You know, Mrs. Gresham...
:18:35
I almost don't know
what to say to you.

:18:38
Good Lord.
:18:40
How long do you plan
to stay in England?

:18:42
Till the end of December.
:18:44
- Are you expected to be in Oxford again?
- I hadn't planned on it.

:18:47
What do you say? Do you think we could
rise to a pot of homebrewed tea?

:18:51
- I can manage that.
- Given early warning, of course.

:18:54
Do you think
I could bring my son?

:18:56
Douglas is such a big fan of your
Narnia books, he'd love to meet you.

:19:00
- Yes, of course.
- I'll give you plenty of warning.

:19:05
It was a pleasure meeting you.
Thanks for everything.

:19:08
- Well, see you soon.
- Yes. Major.

:19:18
Does one wait
for the train to leave?

:19:21
I don't know.
:19:24
Character and thought...
chicken and egg.

:19:28
Which comes first?
:19:33
Aristotle's solution
was simple and radical.

:19:40
He said, "Plot is character.
:19:43
Forget psychology.
Forget the inside of men's heads.

:19:46
Judge them by their actions."
:19:50
For example,
Mr. Whistler is asleep.

:19:52
Now, from that action, I take it that he
has no interest in what I have to say.

:19:57
The puzzle is, that being the case,
why is he here at all?
