We open on State Road 29.
:16:14
A battered white van speeds along,
making a sharp, skidding right...

:16:17
... into the Fakahatchee Strand
State Preserve.

:16:20
The driver of the van is a skinny man
with no front teeth.

:16:24
This is John Laroche.
:16:29
I need a break.
:16:31
-l loved the Sibelius violin concerto.
-Yeah, me too. lt was great.

:16:35
-The end was a little weird, but--
-Oh, no! God, it was passionate.

:16:39
lt was exultant.
:16:40
The soloist was amazing.
Such beautiful tones. So precise.

:16:45
God, it blows my mind.
:16:47
-l wish l could play like that.
-You do.

:16:51
Charlie. l don't.
l'm mediocre at best.

:16:54
Well, l love listening to you play.
:16:56
Thanks, Charlie.
:17:00
Here we are.
:17:06
What are you up to now, then?
:17:09
l should probably get to bed.
l have a lot of work to do tomorrow.

:17:14
Well, good night, then.
:17:24
l would stay out.
:17:25
lt's just that l've really been struggling
on the script right now.

:17:29
l've been thinking about it too small,
just writing it like a story about Laroche.

:17:32
That's not enough. l mean,
l wanted to write about flowers.

:17:35
Anyway, l can't figure it out, and l
haven't been sleeping very well lately...

:17:39
...so l thought l should get home...
:17:41
...and try to get a good night's sleep,
you know. Start fresh in the morning.

:17:45
Otherwise, l'd stay out.
:17:47
l understand. l hope you figure it out,
Charlie. l really do.

:17:51
Thanks. Thanks for coming out
with me and everything.

:17:55
Sure, it was fun.
:17:56
So l have to go to Santa Barbara next
weekend for this orchid show up there.
