1:00:01
A terrible, terrible woman.
1:00:08
Chunjin! Chunjin!
1:00:11
We would like some more wine.
1:00:14
Chunjin!
1:00:16
Oh, I forgot.
1:00:18
After you called,
I gave Chunjin the night off,

1:00:23
because it was Christmas Eve, I told him.
1:00:25
He was very reluctant to go.
1:00:28
That's probably because he's a Buddhist
and he doesn't celebrate Christmas.

1:00:34
I don't think that Chunjin is a Buddhist.
1:00:38
He smiles all the time.
1:00:40
Oh, what a shame.
1:00:42
I thought he was a Buddhist, or I would
have sent him a Christmas card.

1:00:47
But I figured
1:00:50
that if I sent him a card
at this time of the year,

1:00:56
that he would have to send me
a card on the Buddha's birthday.

1:01:00
- To save face, right?
- Oh, right.

1:01:02
- That would have started a big megillah.
- Exactly.

1:01:05
That's... You did exactly the right thing.
1:01:13
12 days of Christmas.
1:01:18
One day of Christmas
is loathsome enough.

1:01:22
What were we saying?
Oh, yes. My mother.

1:01:25
But you don't want to sit there
listening to me talking...

1:01:28
Of course I do. I'm interested.
1:01:31
It's rather like listening to
Orestes gripe about Clytemnestra.

1:01:36
- Who?
- Greeks. A couple of Greeks in a play.

1:01:39
Oh. Well, you know, Ben...
it's a terrible thing to hate your mother.

1:01:45
But I didn't always hate her.
1:01:47
When I was a child,
I only kind of disliked her.

1:01:52
But after what she did to Jocie and me,
1:01:56
that's when I began to hate her.
1:01:59
Jocie?
