Nothing makes you feel
more powerful.

:56:05
Well...
:56:07
almost nothing.
:56:13
- So, do you like your new house?
- I like it.

:56:17
The people who used to live
there fed these stray cats,
so they were always around,

:56:20
and it drove
my mother nuts.

:56:23
And then she cut down
their tree.

:56:27
Is that a funeral?
:56:29
Yeah. Have you ever
known anybody who died?

:56:33
No. Have you?
:56:36
No.
:56:38
But I did see this homeless woman
who froze to death once...

:56:41
just laying there
on the sidewalk.

:56:43
She looked really sad.
:56:58
I got that homeless woman
on videotape.

:57:01
Why would you film that?
:57:03
- Because it was amazing.
- What's amazing about it?

:57:07
When you see something like that,
it's like God is looking right at you,

:57:11
just for a second,
:57:13
and if you're careful,
you can look right back.

:57:15
And what do you see?
:57:18
Beauty.

Mom, I want you
to meet somebody.

:57:42
- Mom.
- Yes?

:57:47
I want you to meet somebody.
This is Jane.

:57:51
- Hi.
- Oh, my.

:57:53
I apologize for the way
things look around here.
