But what happens when you finish your tea?
What happens when I go back to school?

:28:07
-I can't be here to watch you all the time.
-I know.

:28:11
We have to look after each other. The two of us.
:28:16
Suddenly I realized
two people isn't enough.

:28:20
You need a backup.
:28:21
If you're only two people,
and someone drops off the edge...

:28:24
...then you're on your own.
:28:26
Two isn't a large enough number.
:28:28
You need three, at least.
:28:30
-Three what?
-Nothing.

:28:33
But I'd had a great idea.
:28:36
The important thing in island living
is to be your own activities director.

:28:39
I find the key is to think of a day
as units of time...

:28:42
...each unit consisting
of no more than 30 minutes.

:28:45
Full hours can be a little bit intimidating...
:28:48
...and most activities take about half an hour.
:28:50
Taking a bath: One unit.
:28:52
Watching "Countdown":
:28:54
Okay...
:28:56
One unit.
:28:57
Web-based research:
:29:01
Two units.
:29:02
Exercising: Three units.
:29:06
Having my hair carefully disheveled: Four units.
:29:09
It's amazing how the day fills up.
:29:11
I often wonder, to be absolutely honest...
:29:13
...if I'd ever really have time for a job.
:29:17
How do people cram them in?
:29:24
Yeah, Will here.
:29:25
It's Marcus.
Pardon?

:29:28
It's Marcus.
:29:29
Marcus?
:29:31
Marcus. Hi.
:29:34
How'd you get my number?
:29:36
From Suzie.
:29:37
I thought you'd like to take me out for the day
on Saturday.

:29:40
And why did you think that, Marcus?
:29:42
Suzie said we hit it off.
:29:43
Did she?
Yeah.

:29:45
-And you said, "See you soon".
-I said what?

:29:48
See you soon.
:29:49
The night you dropped us off. Remember?
You said, "See you soon".

:29:53
This is soon, all right, Marcus.
:29:57
The thing is, mate,
my life is kind of hectic at the moment.
