The Atlantic.
:50:05
- You know a lot of oceans and seas.
- I know Latin.

:50:09
Did you like it?
:50:11
Yes, I did like the Atlantic
very much.

:50:14
I used to go to Cape Cod when
I was a little boy, with my parents.

:50:17
I know Cape Cod. It's one
of the New England states.

:50:20
- I don't think Cape Cod is a state.
- It is.

:50:23
And you stood at the edge
and waded in the water?

:50:26
- Will she be back soon, your mother?
- You kicked off your shoes...

:50:30
...rolled up your trousers
and stood at the edge...

:50:32
...of the whole entire
Atlantic Ocean?

:50:35
You look out,
and you keep on looking...

:50:37
...and there keeps on being water,
very flat...

:50:40
...and more water...
:50:42
...and more water,
as far as you can see?

:50:45
- Yes.
- And then what happens at the end...

:50:48
...when you can only see so far,
at the very, very farthest point?

:50:53
- How does it look?
- Well...

:50:56
...the planet curves...
- You see the curve of the planet?

:50:59
You see the horizon.
:51:02
You see the sky...
:51:06
...touching down on the ocean.
- My God, Mr. Gibbs, that's wonderful.

:51:09
You can see that here,
in New Mexico.

:51:13
You can see the sky
out on the horizon...

:51:16
...touching down on the desert.
It's the same.

:51:18
I don't think it's the same one bit.
:51:20
"Desert" is another word
for "wasteland."

:51:22
- What is your mother doing in town?
- Stuff.

:51:25
We washed your shirt.
I ironed your tie.

:51:29
- Would you like it?
- You ironed my tie?

:51:31
I had it on medium heat.
It's a polyester blend.

:51:34
Would you like to put it on?
:51:37
Now?
:51:38
- I don't think so.
- Go ahead, you'll feel better.

:51:58
Now I see.
