:42:00
I met my cousin last night.
:42:03
You've seen Colin?
:42:05
Did you know about him?
:42:07
Everybody knows about him.
:42:09
But hardly anybody's seen him.
:42:11
He said his mother died when he was born.
:42:14
She fell off the swing.
:42:16
He was born too soon.
:42:17
He's not at all like you.
:42:19
His cheeks are whiter than ice and marble.
:42:23
Whiter than these little hairs.
:42:24
Those are the roots.
:42:26
Set it in there.
:42:37
Let it grow this way, Miss Mary.
:42:57
How tiresome to be shut indoors.
:42:59
It's too stuffy!
:43:02
I'll faint if I don't get
some light and fresh air.

:43:07
At least we can open the windows.
:43:10
No, get away from there!
:43:12
Don't touch them.
:43:14
They're nailed shut.
:43:15
My lungs can't take the spores.
:43:18
Spores?
:43:19
The wind carries them. When you
breathe the air, you swallow them.

:43:23
They get stuck in your lungs.
:43:24
Before I got out into the wind,
even my hair was scrawny.

:43:28
Your hair?
:43:30
-Hair is dead.
-If hair is dead...

:43:32
...then how come it keeps growing
even after you die?

:43:35
Well, maybe not your hair!
By then you might be bald.

:43:39
Don't be stupid.
:43:41
I'll be dead before I'm old enough
to be bald.

:43:44
I'll get a lump on my back like my father.
:43:47
Then I'll die.
:43:50
I hate how you talk about dying.
:43:52
Everyone thinks I'll die.
:43:54
If everyone thought that about me,
I wouldn't do it.

:43:58
Here.
:43:59
Put this on.
