:44:00
You must think that I'm crazy,
but at least my mom's happy,
you know.
:44:04
It's such a change...
:44:06
'cause she usually spends
most of her time depressed
or with idiots.
:44:09
Maybe I should try it.
:44:11
My mom only smiles
once a month
when the alimony check comes.
:44:18
And if she's been dumped
a lot? Then what?
:44:21
A lot?
:44:22
That's a tough one.
:44:25
I guess the perfect guy
would be...
:44:27
He could be anywhere
in the world...
:44:29
but he chooses
to be with her because...
:44:32
life is better with her
by his side.
:44:43
Dear Passionate Baker...
:44:45
I'm spending my days
with very serious
business people...
:44:48
and I know
I should be listening
to every word they say...
:44:50
But all I keep thinking is...
:44:52
what am I doing
all the way in China?
:44:54
Unbelievable. Listen to this.
Come on. Let's go.
:44:57
It's from Ben.
:44:58
"I planned this restaurant
before I'd ever laid eyes
on you.
:45:01
"If I had to do it over...
:45:03
"I'd buy the building
right next to yours
and open there. "
:45:08
He'd rather be with me.
:45:13
Why don't you write him back?
:45:15
Good.
:45:19
Excuse me.
:45:24
Dear Brooklyn Boy...
:45:25
if your food's half as good
as your letters...
:45:27
nothing would make me happier
than having your restaurant
on my block.
:45:30
But I'd hate to deprive
the nation of China...
:45:32
of that kind of satisfaction.
So open your restaurant
there first.
:45:38
Dear Passionate Baker...
:45:39
as long as
I'm in the kitchen cooking...
:45:42
it doesn't matter where I am.
:45:46
It's a real specific kind
of satisfaction, isn't it...
:45:49
cooking for people?
:45:50
I'm only a baker,
but I put as much creativity
and passion...
:45:54
into my cakes
as a painter puts on a canvas.
:45:57
Granted, when all's said
and done,
all I've made is a cake.
