Mr. Hanson has your eyes.
:25:03
- The shop teacher?
- And he's a lefty, like you.

:25:06
That's 'cause he chopped off
his right thumb with the table saw.

:25:08
I didn't say
he was a natural lefty.

:25:12
Maybe he chopped off his thumb
on purpose to show your mother...

:25:14
how much he loved her,
like Van Gogh with his ear.

:25:17
I can't see my mom being attracted
to a metal shop teacher.

:25:21
Art or English maybe,
but not metal shop.

:25:24
I don't understand
why she doesn't just tell you.

:25:28
You're already a bastard.
You might as well be an enlightened one.

:25:31
- She said she'd tell me
when I'm old enough.
- When's that?

:25:35
I don't know.
Soon, I hope.

:25:44
Things were getting
serious between my mother...

:25:46
and the armadillo-wielding
Ben Goodrich,

:25:49
enough so that one Sunday
she brought him with us to church.

:26:14
Hi, Joe! Hi, Miss Wenteworth!
Hi, Ben Goodrich!

:26:17
Hi, Simon!
:26:19
I have something
for you.

:26:21
- You made that for me?
- I did indeed, my little doll.

:26:24
I think it's gonna be getting cool
pretty soon and you need to have...

:26:28
a beautiful sweater
just for you.

:26:33
Hopefully, a good fit.
:26:36
So, let's see?
:26:38
Oops!
Oh, my goodness.

:26:42
Well,
:26:44
what a very long
piece of yarn.

:26:47
- He looks like a hobo.
- It's perfect.

:26:51
Just like you.
:26:54
Come on.
:26:58
Blessed is he
whose transgression is forgiven,
