:18:04
Do it
:18:05
Shh... shh. It's okay
:18:13
If you're right...a big if...
:18:16
if she's never left this cabin
or this part of the forest
:18:19
never known anybody but her mother...
:18:21
never encountered any of
the images of the modern world,
:18:24
never seen a car,
a television a gun, a Hershey bar...
:18:27
never heard rock'n'roll music or
But now you said she can talk
:18:31
Yeah, but it's some kinda
language of her own
:18:34
Well, we haven't had a true wild child
in this country for sixty years
:18:38
She's not a wild child
:18:40
It's just a shorthand term, Dr. Lovell
:18:42
She's not a child
:18:43
No. That's what makes
this case so unique
:18:46
This is not your field, I know
:18:48
Bur let me tell you
what we're dealing with here
:18:50
Some pretty fundamental issues
:18:52
How was the personality formed?
We don't know
:18:55
How much is innate,
how much is learned? We don't know
:18:58
Where do gender roles come from?
We don't know
:19:01
Because you can't take a baby
and have it grow up in a lab...
:19:03
- and monitor and control every influence...
- You want to have her grow up in a lab?
:19:08
Grow up in a lab? No
:19:11
Dr. Lovell thinks you're gonna do
a Frankenstein number on her, Al
:19:15
Oh, well, uh... all right...
:19:18
Let me ask you this, Dr. Lovell
:19:20
Can she survive on her own?
:19:24
Well
:19:26
I don't know
:19:27
Yeah, well, all right,
suppose she cannot
:19:29
Who's gonna look after her? You?
:19:32
Me? Why me?
:19:34
All right, so who's volunteering?
:19:36
I can tell you this much
:19:38
It's gonna be somebody
with an ulterior motive
:19:41
Everybody who cares for
someone has an ulterior motive
:19:45
Even Mother Teresa
:19:46
She wants to know that her life
has been of some use to others
:19:50
And so do I
:19:52
Excuse me
