:27:27
I don't want you to panic, Frank.
:27:29
I've got some bad news
for you, though.
:27:31
You're going deaf.
Completely deaf.
:27:37
As you know, your right ear
is completely shot.
:27:40
Your left ear, that's this one,
has got 20 percent left.
:27:45
You were born
with little holes in them...
:27:48
...and slowly the fluid pressure
is dropping.
:27:51
Can't you just plug it up
with some ear putty or something?
:27:53
The ear organism, it's way too
sensitive and delicate for that.
:27:57
Surgery doesn't work.
Cochlear implant doesn't work.
:28:00
You've gotta stop exposing yourself
to so much noise.
:28:04
What do you mean by that?
:28:05
It means that if you listen
to absolute silence...
:28:08
...your ears are gonna last
a little bit longer.
:28:11
They're crumbling as we speak.
:28:14
Stop the drugs, Frank.
Stop the drinking.
:28:17
Go to bed at a decent hour.
:28:19
We can give you a hearing aid
that gives you temporary hearing...
:28:22
...but that damages the ear
even further.
:28:25
-Speak up.
-These are the facts, Frank.
:28:27
These are the facts, Frank.
We can't change them.
:28:31
You are deaf, man.
:28:34
You are a deaf man.
:28:37
This is costing me 2000
fucking euros an hour.
:28:40
Chuck me a fucking bone!
:28:43
This is your hearing aid, Frank.
:28:45
Use it only when you have to.
Only when you have to.
:28:50
-Only when I have to.
-Right. Only when you have to.
:28:54
Got that? No exceptions.
