:20:09
Peter wanted to talk to me. He claims
he's obsessed by a certain idea.
:20:15
Obsessed by an idea?
-A recurring thought.
:20:19
ls it serious?
:20:21
People inflate their anxieties.
They're afraid, and the fear...
:20:25
is worse than their obsessions.
-What kind of obsessions?
:20:29
Death wishes, suicide, murder,
violent acts, violence.
:20:34
l'm not sure. He's coming back
on Thursday. l'll find out more then.
:20:39
Could he...
-l don't think it's that serious.
:20:43
And what can l do?
:20:46
Maybe you should go away for a while.
-At the busiest time of the year?
:20:52
And why should l?
lf Peter's really sick, he needs me.
:20:56
There's a small but definite
possibility that you could get hurt.
:21:03
What do you mean? Would Peter...
-Yes.
:21:07
Did he say that...
-He made allusions to that effect.
:21:13
That seems totally ridiculous.
:21:16
So you won't take a trip?
-lmpossible. Please understand.
:21:20
How about taking in a house guest?
-Peter wouldn't tolerate that.
:21:25
You have two nephews, don't you?
-A 6 and an 8-year-old? lmpossible.
:21:32
What if Peter took a trip?
-He's busy.
:21:34
They're negotiating
some complicated deals.
:21:38
He can take sick leave
for a few months.
:21:41
That's totally unrealistic.
:21:43
Well, then l'm stumped.
:21:49
l wonder if you're
not more worried...
:21:52
than you say you are.
:21:53
Rationally speaking,
the risks are pretty minimal.
:21:57
Then let's remain rational.
