:52:00
- No, what?
- Immortality in culture.
:52:03
That sounds like a symposium.
:52:05
It's an error in judgment,
in a molecular way.
:52:09
But why?
:52:10
Even on a protistic level
the normal cell-cell interactions...
:52:14
are so subtle,
they take your breath away.
:52:17
It's incredible, it's perfect.
:52:20
What's up with cancer cells?
Smartest guys in the world...
:52:23
the best labs, funding...
:52:26
They don't know what to make of it.
:52:28
- What about you?
- Me?
:52:31
I've got some things I'm kicking around.
:52:33
Wait till I get a lab of my own,
if I can survive this fellowship.
:52:37
The part with the human beings.
:52:39
Everybody has to do it,
all the best researchers.
:52:42
They want us to converse
intelligently with clinicians...
:52:44
as if researchers were the impediment.
:52:47
Clinicians are such troglodytes.
Just cut the crap, I say.
:52:51
Are you going to be sorry when...
:52:57
Do you ever miss people?
:53:00
Everybody asks that, especially girls.
:53:03
What do you tell them?
:53:05
- I tell them, "Yes."
- Are they persuaded?
:53:07
- Some.
- Some, I see.
:53:13
And what do you say when a patient is...
:53:16
apprehensive, frightened?
:53:18
Of who?
:53:23
I just...
:53:26
Never mind.
:53:29
Who's the President of the United States?
:53:31
I'm fine. Really, it's all right.
:53:34
- You sure? I could order a test...
- No.
:53:39
I'm fine. Just a little tired.
:53:42
Okay.
:53:44
I gotta go.
:53:45
Keep pushing the fluids,
try for 2,000 a day, okay?
:53:47
Okay.
:53:51
To use your word:
:53:55
"Okay."
