:15:27
Well, it's settled.
:15:28
Metcalfe spoke to Spencer again this
morning and it's definite. The job's mine.
:15:32
I'll be in Nairobi doing
my post-doc work July and August...
:15:35
...and in September,
I'll be teaching at Harvard.
:15:37
Terrific.
:15:39
It looks like we'll both be teaching
at Harvard in September.
:15:42
Looks that way.
:15:46
You can't get any tidier than that, can you?
:15:51
We're going to be together in Boston
and I think we should get married.
:15:58
You know, of course,
I'm supposed to be at least a little bit nuts.
:16:00
A little bit?
:16:02
You're an unmitigated madman!
:16:06
You don't have to tell me how weird
you are. I know how weird you are!
:16:10
I'm the girl in your bed
the past two months.
:16:12
Even sex is a mystical experience for you.
:16:16
You carry on like a flagellant,
which can be very nice...
:16:18
...but I sometimes wonder
if it's me that's being made love to.
:16:21
I feel like I'm being harpooned by some
raging monk in the act of receiving God.
:16:29
And you are a Faust freak, Eddie.
You'd sell your soul to find the great Truth.
:16:35
Well, human life doesn't have great truths.
:16:39
We're born in doubt. We spend our lives
persuading ourselves we're alive.
:16:42
And one way we do that is
we love each other, like I love you.
:16:46
I can't imagine living without you.
:16:49
So let's get married.
:16:51
If it turns out to be a disaster,
it'll be a disaster.
:16:53
We'll shake hands and say goodbye.
