:48:01
- I mean, it's interesting,
- You think so?

:48:04
In that it has nothing to do with
the problems I'd asked you to solve,

:48:07
- It won't happen again,
- What happened?

:48:09
You simply couldn't control yourself?
:48:12
No, I just... I thought I should get all those
ideas down while they were in my head,

:48:17
and then it was morning,
and I couldn't come in with nothing,

:48:21
But this is the third time
that inspiration's overtaken you

:48:24
just at the moment when
you had to submit to my idea

:48:28
of what it is you should be learning,
:48:30
- A third? Really,
- Differential equations don't interest you,

:48:33
No, they do, I mean...
Yeah, they absolutely do,

:48:37
Oh, but they didn't last night,
:48:39
Not as much as usual,
:48:45
I mean...
:48:47
I'm worried that your work
is deteriorating,

:48:51
There are some good ideas here, but...
it isn't a coherent mathematical argument,

:48:59
- Well, I didn't get time to finish it,
- But mathematics isn't jazz,

:49:03
Even the craziest mathematics
is working towards a proof,

:49:07
Not all the mathematicians
in my family are crazy,

:49:10
- I wasn't using the word in a clinical way,
- I know, I know, Just for the record,

:49:19
How is your father?
:49:21
I don't know, I haven't been able
to get in touch with him for a week,

:49:25
He's fine,
:49:27
Last time I talked to him, he was fine, He's
been fine for months now, Nine months,

:49:33
He was a great man,
:49:35
He still is,
:49:40
You're gonna fail me, aren't you?
:49:43
I'm giving you another chance
to redo the problem set,

:49:47
You need an A,
You're quite capable of earning one,

:49:53
Thank you,
:49:58
- Professor Bhandari?
- Yeah,
