1:24:03
Because you don't
want to tell the truth.
1:24:10
A very sly answer, my young friend.
1:24:14
But you won't get off so easily.
1:24:17
I asked you...
1:24:22
why does one not tell the truth?
1:24:25
I don't know.
1:24:29
We have plenty of time, Alexander,
1:24:31
and I'm so interested in your answer
1:24:33
that I'am prepared for
to wait indefinitely.
1:24:37
You may not believe that,
but it's true.
1:24:40
One lies to gain an advantage.
1:24:44
Good answer, my boy.
1:24:47
Good and concise.
1:24:50
Forgive me if I ask another question,
a bit more personal this time.
1:24:57
Can you explain to your mother and me
why you lied at school?
1:25:01
What?
1:25:02
Your teacher has written to me,
1:25:06
saying that you've been spreading
the most incredible lies.
1:25:09
Like what?
1:25:10
Sold to a circus!
1:25:13
Do you deny
that you told your classmates
1:25:16
that I sold you to a travelling circus,
1:25:20
and that at the end of the semester
1:25:23
they're coming to get you?
1:25:26
You are to train
as an acrobat and circus rider,
1:25:30
together with a gypsy
your age named Tamara.
1:25:39
Go to your mother
and ask her forgiveness
1:25:42
for all the sorrow and worry
you've caused her.
1:25:49
Go to your mother
and ask her to forgive you.
1:25:55
Did you hear what I said or not?
