:54:03
Would you like to be alone?
:54:06
No.
:54:07
Shall I come sit on the bed
and talk to you?

:54:11
No.
:54:16
You mean I'm just to keep on standing
where I am in the dark.

:54:28
I suppose it's the custom for the father
to kiss the expectant mother.

:54:42
I'm very happy, Fanny.
:54:44
How about you?
:54:46
Well, at the moment,
I'm more surprised than happy.

:54:49
Don't you like children?
:54:52
No. They always seem to be so wise.
:54:55
Well, I think any child of ours has
a fair chance of being stupid, Fanny.

:55:00
You're laughing at me again.
:55:03
I suppose I'm just as fond
of children as anybody else.

:55:07
Well, it's just that...
:55:09
It's just that babies grow up, and everybody
expects you to grow up with them.

:55:15
You're not afraid
of growing old, are you, Fanny?

:55:18
Yes, I am.
:55:21
Well, babies stay young
for quite a long time.

:55:24
Other people's babies, never your own.
:55:31
Do I look puffy yet?
:55:34
You look beautiful, Fanny.
:55:36
I don't know why.
:55:39
My face is all tear-stained.
:55:41
Just enough to be becoming.
:55:45
Well, I wanted to keep on crying,
but I didn't have the strength.

:55:49
You see, the sedative the doctor gave me
made me very drowsy.

:55:57
Soon, I'll be all swollen
and puffy and ugly.
