There's a great equation:
Your socks, Alex's death.

:32:08
They're pretty sad socks.
:32:10
I believe that
everybody does everything to get laid.

:32:13
Who said that? Freud?
:32:15
No, I did.
:32:17
All I'm saying is how could we
let Alex slip away like that?

:32:21
Maybe he let us slip away.
I never heard from him.

:32:23
- Did he hear from you?
- I tried. He resisted.

:32:26
It's true.
:32:27
We saw him a lot.
But he didn't tell us much.

:32:31
Not me anyway.
:32:32
I can't speak for Sarah.
:32:35
I knew he was unhappy.
That doesn't tell you much.

:32:38
I had no idea how bad it was.
:32:40
I think he
wanted to cut off from us...

:32:43
...because he was so unhappy
with where he was at.

:32:46
Is that true, Chloe?
Did you feel that?

:32:48
I don't know.
We had some good times.

:32:52
I haven't met many happy people
in my life. How do they act?

:32:58
I'm sitting here and I realize...
:33:00
...I don't know what he
did for the last 5 years.

:33:03
I remember he left
that caseworker job in Boston.

:33:06
That was, what, '78 or so?
:33:09
I don't know why he was doing that.
:33:11
He was a scientific genius.
Why was he doing welfare work?

:33:15
Then the construction job.
What was that for?

:33:17
He didn't know what to do.
:33:19
I can relate to that.
:33:22
If you'd been in touch with him,
you could've saved his life?

:33:25
You have that effect on people?
Keep them all jolly, do you?

:33:31
Wise up, folks.
We're alone out there.

:33:33
And tomorrow we're
going out there again.

:33:36
It was straight of him not to cook up
a Reader's Digest condensation...

:33:40
...of his screwed up life
for our entertainment.

:33:43
I am sick of people
selling their psyches for attention.

:33:47
He was classier than that.
:33:49
It was a real classy act
he pulled in the bathtub.

:33:52
For some people it isn't a question
of why kill yourself, but why not.

:33:57
Give me a break.
Spare us the tragic existential pose.
