:21:03
Anyone in particular?
:21:06
l sometimes come here in the morning.
:21:09
Just me, the aspiring...
:21:12
...and all of them.
:21:18
l got a note saying
l should come and see you.
:21:23
Mr. Wallace...
:21:25
...l think it's time you and l
had a very honest...
:21:28
...and very open discussion
about your writing.
:21:32
l thought you liked it.
:21:34
Your recent work?
:21:36
l liked it very much.
:21:39
No, Mr. Wallace, the question
concerning your most recent work...
:21:44
...isn't whether it's good.
:21:47
lt's whether it's too good.
:21:51
The speed in your progress...
:21:52
...from your old school
to this one is unusual.
:21:56
To the point that l must draw
one of two conclusions.
:22:02
Either you've been blessed with a rare
gift that has suddenly kicked in...
:22:07
...or...
:22:10
...you're getting your inspiration
from elsewhere.
:22:14
Given your previous education
and your background...
:22:18
...l'm sure you'll forgive me
for reaching my own conclusions.
:22:21
l wrote those papers, man.
:22:23
Then you won't mind showing me.
:22:27
The next assignment
is due in two weeks.
:22:29
l'll schedule some time
for you to come to my office.
:22:34
l'd like you to write it there.
:22:38
ln the meantime, if there's anything
you wish to talk about....
:22:44
l'm not writing anything, man.
:22:47
Which proves what?
:22:49
lf a two-comma kid wrote the papers,
would he use this ''background'' shit?
:22:53
-Two-comma kid?
-A million dollars.
:22:55
-One comma, two commas.
-No.
:22:57
No, l don't.
:22:59
Do you know what people
are most afraid of?
