1:36:01
Do you always follow your people
as far as this?

1:36:05
She was a very fine lady, sir.
1:36:08
At a cocktail party,
she handed me a glass of sherry.

1:36:11
Was it South African sherry?
1:36:14
I wouldn't know, sir.
1:36:16
There weren't many like her.
1:36:18
My boy, now,
he's always speaking of her.

1:36:21
How is your boy, Parkis?
1:36:24
He's exceptionally well, sir.
Though he's a bit upset today.

1:36:28
He imagined she'd be buried
in a Catholic way.

1:36:31
And why would he think that?
1:36:34
Young boys, sir,
they get these ideas.

1:36:36
Though I have to admit,
even I can't explain it.

1:36:40
Explain what?
1:36:43
On the day of her assignation,
she walked him to a tube.

1:36:48
She thought he was lost, gave him
a coin and kissed him on his cheek.

1:36:52
On his afflicted cheek, sir.
1:36:54
And over the weeks
that followed...

1:36:56
his affliction gradually went away.
1:36:59
I tried to keep him rational,
but he swears it was because of her.

1:37:04
Say hello to Mr. Bendrix, Lance.
1:37:25
Hello, sir.
1:37:39
I wrote at the start
that this was a diary of hate.

1:37:43
I hated You as though You existed.
1:37:46
Now I am tired of hating...
1:37:49
but You're still there.
1:37:51
So Your cunning is infinite.
1:37:55
You used my hate to win
my acknowledgement.

1:37:59
Thank you, Henry.
