- [ Chuckles ]
- I understand, but it's a compromise
I have to live with...

:38:04
and if I want the play to open,
I have to find a way to live with it.

:38:07
I plan on reducing the scope of her role
if her bodyguard will let me.

:38:09
Can you believe
that character?

:38:11
Imagine, traveling with
your own private Neanderthal.

:38:14
- I wasn't aware that you opened
The Master Builder.
- Oh, well.

:38:17
I had forgotten that
you won that drama award.

:38:21
- Here's to your play.
- Oh, thank you. Our play.

:38:24
To an ideal world
with no compromise.

:38:32
Oh, my gosh,
look at this view!

:38:35
A million blinking lights.
A million broken hearts.

:38:40
- You know what's down there?
- What?

:38:42
- Broadway.
- Ah. That's your street.

:38:45
Mm-hmm. Yes, that's my street,
but I'd like to give it to you.

:38:51
- That is, if you want it.
- Who wouldn't want it?

:38:55
I want you to write a play for me.
Oh, I mean when all this is over.

:38:58
- Really?
- Your next play, I want you to create
a vehicle for Helen Sinclair.

:39:02
- I'm honored.
- But it must have size...

:39:05
an important woman.
:39:08
- A Borgia. A Curie. You name it.
- Yes!

:39:11
- I'll dedicate myself to it.
- Oh, and while you're at it...

:39:14
if you could just have
a look at that scene in Act ll.

:39:18
If she succeeds in seducing
the Lieutenant instead of
being rejected a second time...

:39:22
- it could add some variation
to the character.
- Yes, that's a wonderful idea.

:39:27
The heart is "labyrinthinine..."
:39:30
a maze beset with brutal pitfalls
and mean obstacles.

:39:34
David, I can't say that line. It doesn't
make sense. It's stupid. I don't get it.

:39:39
- It's just a stylish way
of expressing a particular idea.
- Idea? What idea?

:39:43
The agony of love.
The difficulty of relating.

:39:45
- Why do you have to make it
so hard to say?
- Just say the line.

:39:47
- No, I can't say it.
It's a mouthful of "ghibberish."
- Gibberish!

:39:51
- I can't say it, and I will not say it.
- Just do the line.

:39:53
No! I'm not making
a fool of myself.

:39:55
[ Cheech ]
She's right, it stinks.

:39:57
Oh-ho, Jesus,
another party heard from.
