:38:10
Are you home for good, or this is a visit?
:38:12
I don't know. I thought I'd
come back and talk to you about that.

:38:16
The way you talked to me
the night that you left without a word?

:38:20
No, not without a word.
I told you how I felt.

:38:23
- You were the one that walked out on me.
- I heard what you had to say.

:38:30
I don't have to hear more.
:38:33
Look at me.
:38:37
Look at me!
:38:39
I'm not crying.
And it's not 'cause I'm afraid to cry.

:38:42
It's 'cause I got no tears left in me.
:38:45
I feel pretty empty inside,
like you feel all the time.

:38:50
How would you know how I feel?
:38:52
You just don't think I know anything,
do you? You think I'm stupid, don't you?

:38:56
No, you're not stupid.
:38:57
Then what am I? Am I crazy?
:39:00
- You think I'm crazy?
- Don't use that word to me.

:39:03
Why not? Are you afraid of it?
:39:06
If that's what I am,
don't be afraid to say it!

:39:08
'Cause if I'm crazy, I should be in a home.
:39:11
And then you'd be all alone
and you wouldn't like it.

:39:13
Is that why you don't use that word? Is it?
:39:19
Is it?
:39:22
You want to know what you are?
:39:28
You are a child.
:39:31
That's what the doctors told me.
You are not crazy, not stupid. A child.

:39:38
And that's how I treat you,
because that's all that you understand.

:39:43
You don't need doctors.
You don't need to live in a home.

:39:46
This is where you live, where
you can be watched and taken care of.

:39:52
You will always be a child.
:39:56
And in this world, where there is
so much hate and sickness and death...
