Hello.
:37:25
Where did you say that you lived?
:37:28
Over on the south side of Marsh Island,
by the tip.

:37:31
I didn't think that was developed yet.
:37:32
There's an old commune out there.
We live on that.

:37:38
Oh, yes. Jack Slavin. Of course.
:37:41
Jack Slavin.
:37:43
- Marty, man.
- This is a surprise.

:37:46
Just making the rounds.
Getting acquainted with my neighbors.

:37:49
I'm glad you came by.
:37:52
- This is Rose.
- Rose.

:37:54
Would you like some coffee?
:37:56
I'll take some coffee, sure.
:37:58
- Rose?
- No, thanks.

:38:02
Nice.
:38:05
How's that appeal coming?
:38:07
As a matter of fact,
I was going to give you a call.

:38:10
That isn't a wetland anymore.
:38:13
As a matter of fact,
that isn't a house anymore. Mind if I...

:38:16
What do you mean?
:38:18
Go see for yourself.
:38:21
I'm just going to build it again.
:38:23
If you build it again,
I'll have to knock it down again.

:38:27
I don't want to have to call the police.
:38:29
Call them. I don't mind.
:38:32
Listen, Jack.
:38:35
I realize you and I have had our differences,
but by the same token...

:38:38
you can't stop progress.
You can't stop the future from happening.

:38:42
People have a right to build.
:38:45
Laws change all the time
pertaining to the environment...

:38:48
as the community's needs change.
I believe in putting people first.

:38:52
That's just my personal belief.
:38:55
But I want you to feel comfortable
with the situation.

:38:58
So you need to tell me how that can happen.
