:36:03
l'm just walkin' in the rain,
Doc.
:36:05
l think you know
you need help.
:36:07
Now, you're too aware
of your own condition
:36:10
to deny it.
:36:12
Just collecting raindrops.
:36:14
Most chronic skin patients
:36:16
are on tranquilizers
or antidepressants.
:36:20
See, the skin is
very personal.
:36:23
lt's, uh, tempting
:36:25
to believe that the
poisons of the mind
:36:27
have somehow...
:36:29
erupted onto the surface
of the skin.
:36:34
''Unclean, unclean!'' you shout,
:36:37
ringing your leper's bell,
warding us all off.
:36:43
That'll destroy you.
:36:45
Yes, l think you know that,
:36:48
or at least
part of you does.
:36:51
You can be helped.
:36:53
Yeah, with a Mickey Finn.
:36:56
Now, why mimic that stuff?
:36:59
What stuff?
:37:01
That out-the-side
-of-your-mouth
:37:03
kind of stuff.
:37:04
That down-these-mean-streets
kind of stuff.
:37:07
l'm sorry.
:37:08
What kind of stuff?
:37:13
You know, my feeling is that,
um...
:37:16
now that... after l've read
some of your prose...
:37:19
Ho, ho, hee, hee.
:37:22
...my feeling is
that, uh, you didn't
:37:24
start out to write in this way.
:37:32
What would you
have preferred
:37:33
to have written?
:37:34
What, if l had the talent,
you mean?
:37:36
No, of course l don't mean that.
:37:39
No, go ahead, be a critic.
:37:40
You got the face for it.
:37:45
lf you like, all right.
:37:47
Uh, if you had the talent.
:37:51
lf l had the talent,
:37:52
one-liners for Michael Jackson,
two-liners for Helen Keller,
:37:56
if it wouldn't be stretching her
too much.
:37:59
Maybe traffic citations
for Ted Kennedy.
