:08:00
- Excuse me.
- Excuse me.
:08:02
Go ahead. Excuse me.
:08:05
I wanted to ask Robert
how long he's been away from here.
:08:08
Three years.
:08:11
No, it's more like two years,
isn't it, hmm?
:08:13
It's been more than that, Carl.
:08:15
Tita, you have no sense of timing
away from the piano.
:08:19
I don't think that's true.
:08:20
It's true.
:08:22
What have you been doing
since then?
:08:24
Odd jobs of work here and there.
Nothing too interesting.
:08:28
You no longer play at all?
:08:30
You know, before my misfortune...
:08:32
I'm not sure
you're aware of my accident.
:08:35
Yeah. Tita was telling me
about it.
:08:37
It's very difficult for me
to turn my neck, this way especially.
:08:41
If I want to look at Catherine,
I have to shift my whole body around.
:08:46
I was real sorry
to hear about it, Carl.
:08:49
I said, I was real sorry
to hear about it.
:08:52
Anyway, as I was saying...
:08:54
Catherine, what was I saying, hmm?
:08:58
You were saying something
about something...
:09:00
that happened around the time
of the accident.
:09:03
Oh, yes!
Just before the accident.
:09:06
After I'd come off tour
with the Betanthaller Quartet...
:09:08
Father and Herbert and I
had a summit conference concerning you.
:09:11
A summit conference? Where was I,
polishing silver behind the coal bin?
:09:16
I don't know where you were,
penis envy.
:09:19
I hope I didn't hear that.
:09:21
Nevertheless...
:09:23
they wanted to hire a detective
to ferret you out.
:09:25
I talked them out of it because I felt
that whatever you were doing...
:09:28
you had a perfect right to do
no matter how...
:09:30
nonsensical your adventures
might be.
:09:32
- It was as simple as that.
- I really appreciate it.
:09:36
I don't think you ought to imply
Daddy was wrong in front of Daddy.
:09:40
Don't force him that way, Spicer.
:09:44
How long have you been here?
:09:46
Oh, only two months.
:09:49
Well, satiety is
my father and mother.
:09:55
Carl?
:09:57
If you're finished,
I think I'd like to go do some work.
