:08:03
Hey, got a butt?
:08:06
No, thank you
:08:07
What a jerk!
:08:08
I'm not offering
:08:09
I'm asking for a butt
:08:11
A cigarette! Get it?
:08:14
Oh, I see, excuse me
I don't smoke
:08:18
So the connection between Pa's
accident and...
:08:20
What they say I did this time
:08:25
Like my lawyer says, if I'd had
a happy childhood
:08:29
I won't be here today
:08:32
He said it right out
:08:34
That's what my lawyer says
:08:36
Mrs. Bliss, did you really kill your father?
:08:40
Tell me the truth
:08:42
It was like this, see?
:08:44
A fate-bet
:08:45
A fate-bet! You know...
:08:48
Whenever Pa juiced up
he'd kick my ass
:08:52
I'd had it, know what I mean?
:08:55
So, by taking away the ladder
I'm betting
:08:58
If the old man sees his lift's gone
:09:02
He'll yell and then
beat the shit out of me
:09:06
But if he doesn't notice, Bang!
I win
:09:11
And I won!
:09:13
Ain't that something?
:09:16
That's fatality!
:09:18
But let's not talk about all that
:09:20
I don't want to get you depressed
:09:23
Mind if I step out for a minute?
:09:27
Here, hold my cigarette
:09:35
Matron
:09:38
I gotta go!
:09:44
The expression "fate-bet" is
very significant
:09:50
And I will try to determine
its precise meaning
:09:53
It is probably a rationalization
:09:58
Mrs. Bliss uses to reject
her responsibility and her guilt feelings
