:25:01
Where are you going, Bill?
:25:05
l, uh--
:25:07
The great Bill Parrish
at a loss for words?

:25:10
The man from whose lips fall ''rapture''
and ''passion'' and ''obsession''?

:25:14
All those admonitions
about being ''deliriously happy,

:25:18
that there is no sense
living your life without.''

:25:21
All the sparks and energy
you give off,

:25:23
the rosy advice you dispense
in round, pear-shaped tones.

:25:32
What the hell is this?
:25:43
Who are you?
:25:47
Just think of millenniums
multiplied by eons...

:25:50
compounded by time without end.
:25:52
l've been around that long.
:25:54
But it's only recently that your affairs
here have piqued my interest.

:25:59
Call it boredom.
:26:01
The natural curiosity of me,
the most lasting...

:26:04
and significant element
in existence, has come to see you.

:26:10
About what?
:26:13
l want to have a look around
before l take you.

:26:18
Take me where?
:26:22
lt requires competence,
wisdom and experience.

:26:25
All those things they say
about you in testimonials.

:26:29
And you're the one.
:26:32
- The one to do what?
- Show me around,

:26:36
be my guide.
:26:38
And in return, you get--
:26:44
l get what?
:26:47
Time:
:26:49
minutes, days, weeks.
:26:52
Let's not get encumbered by detail.
:26:54
What matters is
that l stay interested.
