:18:00
ln my mind's eye
:18:06
One little boy...
one little man

:18:11
Funny how...
:18:13
Time...
:18:16
Flies.
:18:19
"There would be headlines
in the papers.

:18:21
Even the grown-up gangs
who ran the betting

:18:23
at the all-in wrestling
:18:25
and the barrow-boys
would hear with respect

:18:26
of how Old Misery's house
had been destroyed.

:18:30
It was as though
this plan had been

:18:32
with him all his life,
pondered through the seasons,

:18:35
now in his 1 5th year
crystallized

:18:38
with the pain of puberty."
:18:43
What is Graham Greene
trying to communicate

:18:46
with this passage?
:18:48
Why did the children
break into Old Misery's house?

:18:51
- Joanie?
- They wanted to rob him.

:18:54
Joanie, if you had actually
read the short story,

:18:57
which, at a whopping 13 pages
would have kept you up all night,

:19:00
- you would know that the children...
- You suck.

:19:03
...find a great deal
of money in the mattress,

:19:04
but they burn it.
:19:09
Donnie Darko,
:19:11
perhaps with your recent brush
with mass destruction,

:19:14
you can give us
your opinion.

:19:16
They say it right
when they flood the house

:19:20
and they tear it
to shreds,

:19:21
that destruction
is a form of creation.

:19:24
So the fact that they
burn the money is ironic.

:19:27
Theyjust want to see what happens
when they tear the world apart.

:19:31
They want to change things.
:19:39
May we help you?
:19:41
Yeah, I just registered
:19:43
and they put me
in the wrong English class.

:19:45
You look like
you belong here.

:19:48
Where do I sit?
:19:53
Sit next to the boy
you think is the cutest.

:19:56
- Quiet!
:19:58
Let her choose.
