Mr. Dalton?
:39:03
My name is Dysart. l'm a doctor.
:39:05
l'm dealing with Alan Strang.
l mean, l'm treating Alan Strang.
:39:10
l know this is an intrusion,
but l'd like to have a talk with you.
:39:15
l realize this must be difficult for you.
:39:18
Difficult?
:39:19
For lack of a word.
:39:22
lf l had my way, that boy would be dead.
:39:25
l should have killed him that night.
:39:27
Of course, now you've got him in hospital.
Private room, three meals a day...
:39:32
remedial therapy, ping-pong, basketwork.
:39:38
-Mr. Dalton--
-We've got to be modern about it.
:39:42
After all, there are no criminals now.
:39:46
We're all capable of everything.
l know. l've heard all about it.
:39:50
Forgive and forget...
:39:52
two months ping-pong...
:39:54
and he's paid his debt to society.
:40:08
Mr. Dalton?
:40:10
Damn you!
:40:16
l'm sorry, l can't help it.
:40:18
l keep seeing it. Over and over, l see it.
:40:22
Jill's had a breakdown.
:40:24
-Jill?
-The girl who worked for me.
:40:26
Complete and utter breakdown.
She'll never get over it.
:40:29
Of course, she blames herself,
being the one who first brought him here.
:40:32
-He was introduced to the stables by a girl?
-l just told you, didn't l? Jill Mason.
:40:38
Excuse me for being stupid,
but was that his girlfriend?
:40:41
How should l know?
:40:42
No, he met up with her somewhere,
asked for a job.
:40:45
She told him to come and see me.
:40:48
-Piss off now, will you?
-Yes, l'll be going.
:40:52
One thing, when he first appeared,
did he seem peculiar?
:40:55
-l mean, odd in any way?
-No.
:40:58
He did bloody good.
