For the next few weeks
we hardly saw the girls at all.

1:11:22
Joe Hill Conley didn't call Therese
as he had promised.

1:11:30
And Lux never spoke to Trip again.
1:11:36
(Trip) You're a stone fox.
1:11:43
The girls' only contact with the outside...
1:11:45
..was through catalogues they ordered
that filled their mailbox...

1:11:49
..with pictures ofhigh-end fashions
and brochures for exotic vacations.

1:11:55
Unable to go anywhere,...
1:11:57
..the girls travelled in their imaginations
to Siamese temples...

1:12:01
..or passed an old man with a leafbroom
tidying a moss-carpeted speck ofJapan.

1:12:08
We ordered the same catalogues...
1:12:11
..and, flipping through the pages,
we hiked through passes with the girls,...

1:12:15
..stopping every now and then
to help them with their backpacks,...

1:12:19
..placing our hands
on their warm, moist shoulders...

1:12:22
..and gazing offat papaya sunsets.
1:12:26
We drank tea with them
in a water pavilion.

1:12:30
We did whatever we wanted.
1:12:33
Cecilia hadn't died.
She was a bride in Calcutta.

1:12:40
The only way
we could feel close to the girls...

1:12:42
..was through these impossible trips
which have scarred us forever,...

1:12:47
..making us happier
with dreams than wives.

1:12:52
Collecting everything we could oftheirs,
the Lisbon girls wouldn't leave our minds.

1:12:57
But they were slipping away.
