You know, l... when
l was a... a... boy...

1:41:11
Long ago and far away.
1:41:14
No. Here and now.
1:41:19
l saw my mother
with the greaseball

1:41:21
who worked with my father...
like, a partner...

1:41:29
...in this service station
in the desert

1:41:32
that was never really viable.
1:41:34
Dark and Binney.
1:41:36
Shit, they were screwing,
you know?

1:41:40
The noises,
him on top of her, l guess.

1:41:43
Kiss, bang, bang--
all that stuff.

1:41:47
l don't know.
1:41:48

My dad was a hard

1:42:01
You know, he was good,
1:42:03
you know, but, as a kid,
1:42:05

you know?

1:42:11
Anything under the hood,

He was so quiet. He was just...

1:42:19
And l wanted to get closer,
you know?

1:42:23
l mean, maybe l wasn't the kind
of kid he would have wanted,

1:42:29
you know?
1:42:32
Reading,
and off on my own and...

1:42:38
...locked in.
1:42:40
That pain-in-the-ass kid stuff,
but...

1:42:53
l wanted to get closer,
and l... l...

1:42:56
So you told him about her.
1:42:59
Well, l traded her in.
