- Why aren't you happy to be alive?
- Because that is what l feel.

:45:06
Why are you depressed?
We are here in New York. You're alive.

:45:10
One has nothing to do with the other.
:45:12
- You're the hit of New York.
- Momentary.

:45:15
So what?
Momentary is better than nothing.

:45:17
I like you to talk about yourself
for four minutes.

:45:23
I don't have anything to say.
I told you.

:45:25
How are you?
What do you feel for the future?

:45:29
- I don't have a future.
- What do you mean you don't have--

:45:31
- will you be alive tomorrow?
- I don't know

:45:36
I feel lousy.
:45:38
Do you feel like you're dying?
Is that the problem?

:45:41
What do you think?
:45:42
You think now is the time
you're gonna die?

:45:45
- I have no idea.
- The next week?

:45:47
- You know what would make me happy?
- What?

:45:50
If I can give you 42 spanks--
:45:52
I know, that's fine.
What I'm feeling like--

:45:54
It's your birthday,
that's why I wanna do it.

:45:56
- Hours of my birthday mean nothing.
- Just little hand spanks.

:45:59
It doesn't mean--
when I feel like it, yes--

:46:02
When I feel up to it, yeah.
I don't feel up to it this second.

:46:05
I'll be happy--
the offer stands.

:46:09
Any time you feel
you want to celebrate your birthday

:46:12
by me giving you 42 of anything,
I 'd be more than happy to do it.

:46:16
- All right?
- Fine.

:46:21
Boy.
:46:43
Thank you so much for everything.
:46:45
Yes, yes.
May God bless you and make you do well.

:46:48
I'm working on it.
:46:49
- I want to say a prayer right now.
- All right.

:46:52
- Thank you very much.
- Close your eyes and bow your head.

:46:55
In the name of Jesus I thank You
for this day that we have made.

:46:59
And Bob is not so well, Lord,
so I put him in Your hands.
