Three and a half weeks
William Gibbs...
1:09:25
... spent painting 41 feet
of the ocean's horizon.
1:09:30
It was near about the 11th foot
that it dawned on me...
1:09:34
... that someone who I had perceived
as a link with the outside world...
1:09:38
... had in fact been swallowed
in the quicksand of mine.
1:09:41
Okay, I've got it.
1:09:44

- Is that...?
- You wouldn't have...
1:10:25
...any more paint, would you?
I'm running out of blue.
1:10:29
Well, we'll run into town.
And you can call your office.
1:10:32
I'm sure they must be expecting you.
1:10:34
- No, I'm not going back there.
- No?
1:10:37
I didn't come all the way
out to New Mexico...
1:10:39
...to work for
the Internal Revenue Service.
1:10:42
Well, what did you come here for?
1:10:52
Dear "Ask Beth":
1:10:53
I am a 12-year-old girl.
