:14:00
Do you ever get bored?
:14:03
Sometimes I get nervous, but...
:14:05
That's normal.
It's part of life.

:14:07
Boredom is humiliating.
:14:09
When you feel it coming,
it's unpleasant.

:14:13
So you have no time.
:14:16
I feel like I waste my time.
:14:18
You're still allowed to.
:14:22
One other thing:
:14:24
can you use a word processor?
:14:27
Of course.
That was my first job.

:14:29
I'm trying to write a book.
:14:32
I'm no writer.
It's my memoirs. Exotic stuff.

:14:35
I once was a judge in the islands.
:14:38
By chance,
:14:39
I mentioned it to an editor.
A young guy. Dynamic.

:14:44
To my surprise,
he was interested.

:14:46
So I started,
nose to the grindstone.

:14:49
Now I have a first draft
that needs tidying up.

:14:54
I'd hired a very nice woman.
:14:56
Very efficient, a real stickler.
:15:00
But she was bored stiff
:15:01
as she typed away. So we parted
:15:03
on good terms,
but earlier than expected.

:15:06
And you want me to take her place?
:15:08
It won't take all day long.
:15:11
If you can spare me two hours
here and there,

:15:14
at your convenience.
:15:15
I can manage that.
:15:17
I'd like to help you...
in order to...

:15:19
Don't start that again!
:15:21
That's not the reason.
:15:24
You'll be paid like the other woman.
:15:27
And if you get bored too,
just tell me.

:15:31
We can always try.
:15:34
Okay.
:15:41
Give me the pillow.
:15:46
Turn off your light.
:15:48
Leave the door open.
:15:55
You don't mind it here?
:15:56
No, it's perfect.
:15:59
Straighten up
before going to sleep.
