So...
:39:02
how was school today?
:39:05
- The same.
- The same.

:39:08
The same as what?
:39:10
Just the same.
:39:20
We're studying the Holocaust
in Social Studies.

:39:23
Oh, yeah?
:39:25
We did the same thing
last year also.

:39:29
How is the class?
:39:31
I'm supposed to watch
"Schindler's List" for homework.

:39:33
The movie's, like,
almost four hours.

:39:35
Then I'm supposed to write
a report on survivors.

:39:37
You know
any survivors, Dad?

:39:38
Hmm.
:39:43
Do I know any?
Personally?

:39:46
Technically,
your Zeda is a survivor.

:39:52
He was
in a concentration camp?

:39:55
No, but he had
to escape the Nazis.

:39:59
But I thought he came over
to America before the war.

:40:02
He did, with his family.
But his cousins,

:40:06
they had to stay
and they were all killed.

:40:09
If he'd stayed,
he would've been killed.

:40:12
So in my book,
he's a survivor.

:40:15
Even though it was only
his cousins that were killed?

:40:18
That could've happened
to him, or to me,

:40:21
if I'd been alive.
Or you.

:40:24
Or me?
:40:28
You mean,
then we're all survivors?

:40:31
Well, yes.
:40:33
If it hadn't been
for Hitler,

:40:35
he wouldn't have had
to leave Europe.

:40:39
We would've been European.
:40:44
But then, in a sense,
:40:47
since you would've
never met Dad

:40:49
if your family
had stayed in Europe,

:40:51
if it weren't for Hitler
none of us would've been born.

:40:58
Get the hell out of here.
