:19:00
- Yes, of course.
- I'll give you plenty of warning.
:19:05
It was a pleasure meeting you.
Thanks for everything.
:19:08
- Well, see you soon.
- Yes. Major.
:19:18
Does one wait
for the train to leave?
:19:21
I don't know.
:19:24
Character and thought...
chicken and egg.
:19:28
Which comes first?
:19:33
Aristotle's solution
was simple and radical.
:19:40
He said, "Plot is character.
:19:43
Forget psychology.
Forget the inside of men's heads.
:19:46
Judge them by their actions."
:19:50
For example,
Mr. Whistler is asleep.
:19:52
Now, from that action, I take it that he
has no interest in what I have to say.
:19:57
The puzzle is, that being the case,
why is he here at all?
:20:01
So, we construct a plot
from Mr. Whistler's actions.
:20:04
He comes, he sleeps.
:20:07
Now, Aristotle would say
that the next question is not why...
:20:11
but what is Mr. Whistler
going to do next?
:20:20
Good morning, Mr. Whistler.
:20:24
My class is not compulsory,
neither are my chairs very comfortable.
:20:27
- I suggest...
- All right. I'm going.
:20:30
Thank you.
:20:36
He comes, he sleeps,
he goes.
:20:40
So the plot thickens.
