He was a schoolteacher.
:04:01
And I think that the other kids
liked him, and he liked kids.

:04:05
But he didn't like spending
a lot of time with his wife,

:04:08
so he would teach high
school during the day

:04:11
and then after school, he would
come home and teach

:04:13
piano lessons and later computer
lessons in the house.

:04:18
And that was, of course, more
time he didn't have to spend

:04:19
with his wife.
:04:21
I'm not that anxious to talk
about his father,

:04:25
because, you know,
we were divorced, and

:04:30
But his father, he would,
:04:33
I don't really want
to talk about it.

:04:36
In case anybody didn't know,
I'm the father of this family.

:04:38
I'm never in the movies.
:04:40
Never see me in any
of the pictures,

:04:41
but I really am the father.
:04:42
And we're all gathered
together

:04:43
while David is messing up
the camera here.

:04:45
Now he's taking a good movie
and zooming in and out.

:04:48
When you see me on this,
you're gonna say

:04:50
Okay, shut it.
:04:52
He died of a surprise heart
attack about 5 years ago.

:04:56
And it was very, very sad.
:04:59
He was, you know,
:05:02
selfless, altruistic.
:05:05
But in the end, he wasn't
together with your mom?

:05:08
He wasn't together
with my mother at the end.

:05:10
And when did they make
the decision not to be together?

:05:13
Long before he died?
:05:15
Couple years before his death.
:05:22
There's a lot I,
:05:24
well, whatever.
:05:27
There's some things I don't
want to talk about.
