is separated by only six other people.
1:08:04
Six degrees of separation between us
and everyone else on this planet.

1:08:09
The president of the United States, a
gondolier in Venice, just fill in the names.

I find that extremely comforting
that we're so close,

1:08:20
but... I also find it like Chinese water
torture that we're so close,

1:08:25

by a trail of six people.

1:09:31
- Cleaning it.
- When in Rome...

1:09:34
You must know these people.
1:09:38
- Oh!
- Oh, wonderful.

I've always wanted to meet him.
We'll call him just as soon as we get in.
